It felt freeing to dive into those moments of bliss in his arms. And it drew them ever closer together, sharing that intimacy, letting her guard down, being in the moment, lost to the passion and belonging she only felt with him.
“I know that look, sweetheart. We have a reservation. Don’t tempt me.”
She flew into his arms, wrapped hers around the back of his neck, and kissed him, long and deep, like she hadn’t seen him in forever. His thick erection pressed to her belly. He groaned deep in his throat and sank his tongue into her mouth, mimicking what they both wanted him to do with his cock.
She pulled back and looked him in the eye. “How was your day, dear?” She’d never get tired of seeing his smile.
Today was his last day at his old firm. They’d spend the next week together without all the distractions from his job. The board at the children’s hospital didn’t meet for another two weeks, too, so she had him all to herself for the next seven days. She had a few minor things to finish at the bookstore, but otherwise she was ready to open.
Cody wanted to celebrate a new beginning for both of them. He wanted to go out. He wanted her to stop hiding at home. “They threw me a small going-away party at lunch.”
“Nice. And is your assistant ready to move over to Wagner, Mitchell, and Jansen?”
His cheeks went a bit ruddy at the new name of the firm he was a partner at now. “She’s going to start next Thursday, organizing my office and her cubicle before I hit the ground running the following Monday.”
“Should I be worried that you can’t leave your assistant behind?” She quirked an eyebrow at him.
“What? No. Besides, her girlfriend is a spitfire who would probably come after me for any kind of untoward move on her girlfriend.”
Brooke chuckled. “Well, then I won’t have to drop by the office to stake my claim.”
“Baby, that isn’t even necessary. I’m not stupid enough to make the same mistake twice and lose you.” He held her tighter and ground his dick against her belly. “You know I’m completely, irrevocably in love with you. But please, come to myoffice any time you need a reminder. I’ll be happy to lay you out on my desk and prove it to you again.” He kissed her softly. “And again.” He took the kiss a bit deeper this time. “And again.” He practically devoured her with his kiss as he walked her backward toward the little sofa in the romance section and laid her down on it. As he pressed her down into the cushions, his hand gathered her long skirt up to her knee, then he pulled it up to her hips.
She broke the kiss and raised a brow. “I thought we had a reservation?”
“We have time for this…” He slid down her body until he was on his knees next to the couch. He kissed her thigh as he pulled down her panties. “These are really wet, Brooke.”
“Have you seen you in a suit?” The kiss he pressed to her clit made her moan.
“Glad you like it.” His cocky smirk turned devilish as he teased her with the tip of his finger, stroking her seam.
“I know what you look like under that suit.” She groaned as his tongue swept up along her slit and flicked her clit again. “Stop teasing. I need you.”
“I need you, too.” He sank his tongue into her core and strummed her clit with his thumb, back and forth as she writhed on the couch, her fingers buried in his thick golden hair.
One finger, then two filled her wet channel, and he stroked her as he sucked on her clit.
She rocked against his fingers, finding that perfect rhythm between them as he licked and circled her clit with his tongue, taking her up and holding her at the precipice of release. “Cody, please.”
“Please, what?”
“Make me come.”
He thrust three fingers deep, hitting that spot that sent her over the edge as his tongue swept over her clit. He slowly thrusthis fingers in and out as she rode out the orgasm, then he pulled free, stuffed them in his mouth, and sucked her off his fingers. “Mmm. So good.”
So fucking sexy.
“How did I get this lucky?”
Cody stilled and stared down at her. “Not you, Brooke. I’m the lucky one to have this second chance with you.”
“We’re both lucky.” She sat up and reached for his belt buckle. “Now give me what I want.”
“We don’t have time.”
“You know you want my mouth devouring—”
A knock on the door stopped them both.
