Then he kissed her.
Alina immediately buried her fingers in his hair, kissing him back. She couldn’t really say she’d ever taken the safe and mature path at any point in her life, so why start now?
Trevor’s hand slipped into her hair, cradling the back of her head as he deepened the kiss. She moaned at how good he tasted. Like chocolate…but better. She tangled her tongue with his, encouraging him not only to keep going, but to go even further.
He wrapped his free arm around her, tugging her against him. He hadn’t been kidding when he’d said her kiss the other night had gotten to him. She could feel the evidence of that poking her in the stomach, urgently requesting attention.
Unfortunately, she also discovered she’d been banged up more in that explosion tonight than she’d thought. While his hand roaming down her back and over her ass felt unbelievably good, she couldn’t help wincing whenever he found a particularly sensitive spot.
Trevor pulled back, a look of concern on his face.
“I’m fine,” she assured him. “It’s just a few bumps and bruises from getting bounced around earlier. If you think I’m going to let you get away with heating me up, then stopping because I have a boo-boo, you’re crazy.”
He flashed her a grin. “I wouldn’t dare. I was going to suggest we get you in a warm shower first to relax those sore muscles.”
She smiled, liking where he was going with this. “I think a warm shower would be perfect, but only if you join me.”
He kissed her again, a long, slow kiss that promised a night of lovemaking she didn’t think she’d ever forget. “That was the idea. Who else are you going to get to scrub your back?”
They kicked off shoes and boots in the hallway leading to her bedroom. Taking him into the adjoining bathroom, she flicked on the light, then reached for the bottom of his T-shirt. Just because they weren’t getting busy yet didn’t mean she had to keep her hands to herself.
Pulling his T-shirt over his head, she ran her hands up his strong chest and along his shoulders, reveling in the feel of his rippling muscles. She couldn’t help noticing that the slice along his ribs where the bullet had grazed him the other night was completely closed up now. She ran her fingertips along it in amazement. It looked like a scar that was weeks, even months old.
Shuddering a little at the memory, she dragged her gaze away from it and went back to focusing on his chest, kneading the thick, powerful muscles there, enjoying the way his breath caught. She started to head south, intending to go for his belt, but he caught her hands.
“My turn,” he said huskily.
Trevor stripped off her shirt, then made quick work of her bra. A quiver went through her at the way his eyes flared bright yellow as he took in her rounded breasts with their dark pink nipples. He glided his hands up her stomach, gently cupping her breasts as he bent his head to kiss her again.
He trailed his mouth along her jaw and down her neck, nibbling here and there as he headed lower. While she definitely enjoyed what he was doing, she knew if he reached her nipples, they’d never get in the shower. Not that she minded making love right there, but something told her the anticipation would only make the finale even better.
Groaning, she weaved her fingers in his hair and pulled him away from her neck. Trevor gazed down at her with eyes so gold they were practically glowing. Knowing he was so aroused turned her on like crazy, and it was all she could do not to say the heck with everything and get busy on the bathroom vanity.
“We still have to take that shower,” she reminded him.
Trevor nodded, apparently incapable of speech as she jerked his belt open. Gaze locked with his, she popped one button after the next until the front of his cargo pants was completely open. The urge to yank down his underwear and wrap her hand around his thick shaft was nearly overwhelming.
She resisted the urge, instead slipping her hands inside the waistband of both his pants and underwear and slowly shoving them over his hips and down his thighs.
Alina had to drop to one knee to get his pants all the way down, a pose that only put her in a better position to take in his absolutely perfect erection. He was so ready for her that his thick shaft was practically pulsing in time with his heartbeat. Mesmerized, she reached out to wrap her fingers around him, but he caught her hand and pulled her to her feet.
“More clothes, remember?” he said with a chuckle, kicking his pants out of the way. “Then a shower.”
Now that Trevor was standing there completely naked, her resolve slipped a little. “Maybe just a little quickie before we shower?”
“I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t tempting,” he said, his hands finding her belt buckle. “But I want you relaxed and flexible for what I have planned later, and a hot shower is the best way to do that.”
Alina was so intrigued by that image, she completely missed the part where he unbuckled her belt. She definitely noticed when he wiggled her pants and panties over her hips and down her thighs. Mostly because Trevor let out a sexy growl as her ass came into view in the bathroom mirror.
As Trevor reached out to turn on the water in her walk-in shower, she used her foot to push her clothes over to join his cargo pants. She wondered if he’d noticed how wet her panties were. But then she caught the way he was grinning at her and realized he knew exactly how aroused she was.
Taking her hand, he pulled her close, wrapping his arms around her and tipping his head down to kiss her again. Except this time, there was nothing between their bare skin…and one very hard cock. Not that she was complaining. She enjoyed the sensation of his hard-on pressing against her stomach as his tongue slipped into her mouth and teased hers.
When the water warmed up enough, Trevor led her into the shower, closing the door behind them. Alina sighed with pleasure the moment the hot spray rained down on her. She could feel her muscles loosening up already.
It got better when Trevor filled his hands with shower gel and lathered up her whole body. She stood there, letting the water cascade over her back while his strong hands gently massaged, relieving aches and pains she hadn’t even known were there.
“You have really great hands,” she said as he began to massage her butt. “If you ever need extra money, I think I’d be willing to pay for this.”
