Spikes of arousal shot through her, igniting feelings deep within her core.She shuddered as Trent drew her tight against him.
“Mmm… Harper, the things you do to me.”His hands slid over her bare skin, spanning the width of her lower back.Harper shivered as his lips blazed a trail down the side of her neck and back again, coming to rest by her ear.
“This okay?”he whispered against her, his concerned tone melting her.
Pulling back, she looked into his heavy-lidded dark eyes.“Better than okay.”She groaned as one of his hands ran up the inside of her blouse and stroked the underside of her breast.
“You’re gonna kill me,” he growled, pulling her back to his mouth.His tongue probed deeper, swirling inside her mouth.His taste was intoxicating.Every stroke created a deep pull on her clit.If he ground against her any harder, she was going to come.
“Oh God, Trent, please,” she moaned as his fingertips rubbed across her nipple, squeezing gently.
“Please what, baby?”he breathed against her lips.
“More… please.”
“Like this?”he asked, gripping her hips with both his hands and pulling her down hard against him.
“Oh yes… oh it’s… I…” The explosion started deep inside and moved through every part of her.Ripple after ripple of golden waves made her shiver.
Coming down, Harper was vaguely aware of Trent holding her against him, gently rubbing his hands up and down her back, soothing her as she tried to collect her breath.
Her eyes were starting to feel heavy when another vehicle turned into the street, its bright headlights a startling reminder that they were still in Trent’s car.Not only were they in the car, but Trent was still rock hard underneath her.
“You’re beautiful when you come, Harper.I’m honored you let me see that.”
Burying her head farther into the crook of Trent’s neck, Harper was momentarily speechless.Not knowing what to do, she went to slide off him.
His arm reached out and pulled her back.“Hey, where are you off to?”
Harper looked down and fiddled with the buttons of his shirt, embarrassment washing over her.
“Hey, look at me, Harper.”He waited this time until she lifted her eyes to his.“This was an amazing step in the right direction, wasn’t it?”He took both of her hands in his, bringing them to his lips as he kissed her knuckles.
“But what about you?”Harper asked quietly.
“What about me?”Trent looked genuinely confused.
“You didn’t… you know…” Relief flooded his features as he laughed.
“You can use the words, Harper.I didn’t get off, is that what you mean?”
Lord, could this get any more embarrassing?
“I’m fine.This won’t be the first case of blue balls I’ve ever had, and sadly it is unlikely to be the last.”
Wrapping his arms around her, he pulled her back toward his chest.Harper couldn’t resist leaning into his hand as it reached up to stroke her hair.
“You.”He kissed her forehead.“Are one.”Her nose.“Stunningly.”One cheek.“Sexy.”The other.“Woman.”His lips brushed hers in a warm, loving kiss.
“Now, get out of my car and get into your apartment before I decide to carry you in there and have my wicked way with you.”
Leaning forward, she stole one last kiss of her own.
“’Night, Trent.”
She waved as she reached the door.Maybe she wasn’t just running from anything anymore.There had been a monumental shift.Maybe now she was runningtosomething.
