Autumn had never been known for her subtlety. When she wanted something, she went for it. She had always been that way. Quinn was standing alone at the other side of the bar, and Autumn decided to seize her chance. She walked up behind Quinn and blew into her ear. Quinn flinched then smiled when she saw it was Autumn.
“You startled me,” Quinn admitted.
“Sorry. I couldn’t resist. How’s your night going?”
“Really well. This is everything I dreamed it would be. And you were a big part of bringing it into reality.”
“I was just one cog in the wheel. You brought the whole thing to life.”
Quinn nodded, still taking in everything.
“Are you heading out?” Quinn asked.
Autumn knew this was her moment. It was now or never.
“Actually, I was thinking there’s one thing I still haven’t seen yet.”
“What’s that?” Quinn asked, her surprise so genuine it almost made Autumn smile.
“Your apartment,” Autumn whispered.
Autumn was pretty sure Quinn audibly gulped. Quinn leaned in her lips brushing the shell of Autumn’s ear as she whispered.
“Are you sure this is what you want?”
A shiver ran down Autumn’s body. Her core clenched when she imagined the possibilities of what could happen next. The sensation almost kept her from being capable of answering.
“I am. Very sure.”
Quinn offered Autumn her hand, which she took. Quinn smiled shyly and led Autumn through the crowd. She couldn’t help but wonder what Quinn’s apartment would even look like. Quinn led her up a set of stairs in the back. Autumn smiled as the sounds of the party became more distant behind them.
When Quinn opened the door Autumn was surprised by what was waiting on the other side. Her furniture was a mix of modern and bohemian. Clean lines mixed with comfortable chairs and a plush couch.
“What do you think?” Quinn asked.
“I like it.”
“Glad it’s interior designer approved.”
“It definitely is.”
Autumn glanced around the room. She considered asking to see the bedroom, but that would probably be too forward. Instead, Autumn sat on the couch and patted the cushion beside her. Quinn gave her a crooked grin but took her spot beside Autumn on the couch.
“Is it everything you thought it would be? Quinn gestured to the apartment.
“And so much more,” Autumn admitted. She met Quinn’s eyes and held the contact.
She could feel the invisible string between them stretched taut, waiting for one of them to give in. In the end it was Quinn that leaned forward first. The lean in was subtle but the move was exactly the encouragement that Autumn had been waiting for. She surged forward her lips finding Quinn’s. An electric pulse flowed through her lips. Quinn’s teeth caught hold of her lower lip and Autumn moaned. Quinn gave Autumn’s lower lips a hard suck, that sent ripples of pleasure crashing through her body.
Autumn had waited so long for this moment of contact. She had every intention of enjoying it to the fullest. Quinn’s hands found her breasts, her palms massaging her nipples through the fabric of her dress. Autumn allowed her head to hang back against the couch cushion. Autumn’s hands bracketed Quinn’s hips, holding on for dear life as the woman continued to tease her. Quinn’s hand dipped inside her dress playing with her nipples more directly.
The pleasure building inside of her was reaching an intoxicating level, so Autumn stood sliding out of the dress. She allowed the garment to fall to the floor, then slid off her heels. The hunger growing inside of Quinn’s eyes told Autumn that the woman liked everything she saw. Autumn couldn’t wait for her turn.
Chapter 13
Quinn couldn’t keep her eyes off Autumn as she sat back down beside her on the couch. Autumn helped Quinn slip out of her suit jacket, then the shirt underneath. She looked with satisfaction at Quinn’s breasts and leaned forward. Autumn’s lips fastened around one of Quinn’s nipples and she sucked, her jaw working against Quinn’s breast. The sensation was the perfect mixture of pleasure and pain. Quinn growled at the contact.
She took in the sight of Autumn. Her usually perfectly styled blonde hair was mussed. Her blue eyes met Quinn’s and there was a clear hunger behind them. Autumn really had been waiting for this moment. Quinn bracketed Autumn’s hips with her hands and gave her the slightest push back. Quinn rose and offered Autumn her hand. Autumn grinned but took her hand and stood. She allowed Quinn to direct her to the bedroom. If they were going to do this tonight, Quinn wanted it to feel special. She wanted it to feel romantic.
