“We shouldn’t.”
“Maybe, but we both want to.”He had never stopped wanting her even when he’d thought she was the enemy.“I came too damn close to losing you for my liking.I need to feel you.Reassure myself you’re alive and well.That I haven’t lost you.”
She had come close to dying tonight.If Jack hadn’t come when he did, there was a possibility she would have ended up like her sister.She very easily could have taken that bullet instead of her sister.“I was so scared.”
“I’m sorry, baby.”Jack gathered her in his arms and rocked her back and forth.
“I think it was the same people from the bar last night.They thought I was her.I think I led them to me.”She had gotten her sister killed.It was her fault.
“Shhh, don’t think about that now.We’ll make them pay for killing your sister.”
“Make me forget, Jack.Even if it’s just for a short time.”She no longer resisted the pull between them.She needed that affirmation she was still alive.The rest could wait.
Chapter 35
She didn’t have to tell him twice.Jack bent at the waist and picked her up in his arms, taking her to the closest bedroom and flipping on the light.It didn’t matter they still had things to work out and that he needed information from her.She was alive and wanted him to make her forget.That was his new mission, and he gladly accepted it.She was willing to trust him, at least with her body for now.He wouldn’t rest until he had her heart because she damn well had his.
At first, he hadn’t been sure.It was just a funny feeling he got when he was with her.Like butterflies trapped in his stomach when Andrea gave him a certain look or smile.It grew from there like a virus, spreading throughout his limbs until she became all-consuming.
It explained why the thought of torturing information out of her was abhorrent to him.Or the fact he delayed completing his mission and instead just enjoyed time with her.
Even now, he should be giving her space to process all she had learned and mourn her sister, but he couldn’t make himself leave her.Especially not after she told him she wanted him.It may only be a physical reaction to her near-death experience, but he wasn’t going to question it.
He planned to show her in the only way he knew how to show her his affection, with his body.He was glad he’d had the foresight to make sure both beds were made.He didn’t want a rushed fuck up against a wall or on the couch.
Jack set her down on her feet and quickly stripped her of her clothes.He loved seeing her in his clothes, but he loved her even more naked.
Andrea didn’t say a word, just lifted her arms as the hoodie and shirt came over her head and used his shoulders as support when he pushed her sweats down.He could only stare at her beautiful naked body underneath.
If he had known that while they’d been having a conversation only a moment ago that she was sans underwear and bra, he never would have been able to focus.
“You didn’t give me underwear, or a bra, and I didn’t want to put the other pair back on.”Andrea seemed to feel the need to fill in the silence as he continued staring at her.
“I didn’t think about it.I don’t have feminine clothing.Tomorrow, we’ll get you some stuff, or I can go to your house and collect anything you might need.”
“Okay.”A shadow crossed her face.Jack didn’t want her thinking about those things now.Now was the time for pleasure.
He stepped closer and took her lips in a claiming kiss, pouring everything he was feeling for her into it.His tongue darted out and licked along the seam of her lips.She opened easily for him, and he dove in.
Andrea groaned against his mouth, her hands coming around and stroking through his hair as she pressed her naked chest against his front.He wished he could feel her pert nipples against his chest without the hindrance of his shirt.
An oversight he planned to rectify immediately.
Jack backed Andrea up to the foot of the bed.He planned to overload her with so much pleasure she wouldn’t even be able to remember her name when he was done with her.
He left her mouth and sucked on the column of her neck.Andrea’s head fell back, granting him greater access.His hands travelled down and cupped her heavy breasts, his thumb swiping over a sensitive nipple.
“Jack,” Andrea husked.
His cock pulsed at hearing her say his name.His real name.He couldn’t wait to hear her scream it as he pounded into her.It strained against the front of his jeans to get to her.He gritted his teeth as it pressed painfully against the zipper.
Not yet.She needed at least one or two orgasms before he freed himself from his denim cage.
Jack bent over so his mouth could take over for his fingers as they dropped between her legs.Andrea spread her legs as his fingers glided over her seam before plunging two digits inside, instantly coated in her juices.
She’d never been so wet for him.Andrea was practically gushing.He pumped his fingers inside of her, encouraged by Andrea’s panting and her claws digging into his scalp as she rocked into his hand.His free hand kneaded her right breast as he alternated nips and suckling on her breasts.
Jack curled his fingers, finding her hidden spot.“Yes,” Andrea screeched, throwing her head back as she convulsed around his fingers.
