“I want exactly what I said: no strings. No nonsense. Just a good night.” Marie caught her lip between her teeth briefly. “I’m cautious in writing, but make no mistake, I invited you here for sex and sex only.”
Kaelee let her gaze openly run over the curves of the woman in front of her. “Good.”
“Tell me something about you. What else do you like?”
Kaelee smirked. “Pretty women with kissable mouths.”
“Since you showed up, I’ll assume I fit the bill?” Marie reached out again and trailed her fingertips over Kaelee’s wrist, lighter now, as if she were feeling the muscles in Kaelee’s forearms.
“Yes.” Kaelee rested her hand on Marie’s leg, high enough that her thumb was almost inappropriate for public. “And you? What do you think?”
“I like a sexy woman who’s comfortable on her knees,” Marie said, her words even bolder than her appearance.
Kaelee said a silent prayer of thanks to whatever god or being put this woman in her path. “So you enjoy a little worship.…”
“Yes.” Marie sipped her drink before adding, “I’m happy to reciprocate, of course.”
And Kaelee was grateful that they had paused for this drink. Sometimes having a sense of parameters made the evening a lot more enjoyable and a lot less awkward.
“I would rather skip that,” Kaelee admitted with a twinge of regret.
Marie’s brow rose again. “Orgasms entirely or just oral?”
The level of trust that took was more than Kaelee could offer anyone. She’d tried it once. That was enough. “Noreceivingoral. I’ll let you know on the rest. It varies.”
“Noted,” Marie murmured.
Kaelee had the vague sense that Marie’s job involved negotiation. She was very comfortable outlining details—and doing so at a rapid pace. Kaelee wanted her a bit less in control, though, so she said, “At this point, I would be devastated not to have my mouth on you. Anything else on or off the table?”
When Marie drew a sharp breath and smiled, Kaelee prompted, “What else wouldyoulike?”
“I have been left to my own resources for a few months, so I want sex hard and fast, and then we can reassess.” Marie shrugged. “Ideally, I can touch you at some point—”
“Probably. I’ll let you know.”
“We’re fine, then. All my requests are met.” Marie motioned toward the lobby. “Shall we?”
“My drink is—”
“Portable.” Marie leveled a simmering look at her. “We can talk upstairs if you want, but I’d rather be more comfortable and be able to touch you.”
A twinge of discomfort made Kaelee pause. “Are you in the closet?”
Marie slid out of her seat, stepped close enough that Kaelee’s field of vision was nothing but breasts, and then said, “Stand, please.”
Mutely, Kaelee obeyed, and Marie wrapped her arms around Kaelee’s neck and guided her down for a kiss. She barely brushed her lips over Kaelee’s, pausing to catch Kaelee’s lip between her teeth in gentle nip, and then she whispered, “Kiss me like you want to fuck me.”
So Kaelee did just that. Her mouth slanted over Marie’s, her tongue demanding entrance. All of her hesitation vanished as Marie was suddenly pressed tightly to her. Kaelee’s left hand fell naturally to the small of Marie’s back, holding her steady, as the other hand rested at the top of her spine, just under her thick hair bun. Pulling back, Kaelee said, “I want to see this loose and spilling all around your shoulders and chest.”
When Marie leaned back, she pulled the pin out of her bun. A mass of wavy hair dropped like a veil around her, and she said, “No closet here. I simply don’t want to wait, Lee. It’s been months, and you’re stunning. Please, come upstairs with me now?”
Kaelee took her hand and left the drink behind.
3Greta
Greta followed Lee to the elevator. Often sex with a stranger could be something awkward, but the only other option was relying on nothing but her hand or a toy.Or dating.That was off the table, though, and had been since Tasha broke her heart. Two years later, Greta still wasn’t looking for love. Hell, she wasn’t even looking for an ongoing situationship. She simply wanted the occasional orgasm with another person.
The muscles she’d felt when she’d been pressed against Lee were enough to make her moan in public over a kiss. “I want you naked and against me. Now.”
