Scowling, my fingers found the sensitive skin on the sides of his stomach and I dug in. Bodhi giggled like a schoolgirl and I’d nearly managed to get an ‘Uncle’ out of those full, sexy lips when the hunk of a man turned the tables, pinning me to my back. I squealed my approval and soon we were both panting and laughing. Then, out of nowhere, the silly kindergarten fun shifted into something decidedly more sexual. His lips found mine, tongue sweeping inside my mouth with urgent strokes.

Digging my fingers into his cloth-covered ass cheeks, I yanked him against me, drawing a loud moan from deep in his throat. Our bodies were a single stitch, united in desire. Pure, unbridled instinct took over.

This was happening again and, afterwards this wouldn’t be considered a one-night stand anymore.

Perhaps it was my third eye taking over the pleasure center in my brain, but my view of reality was warping fast. Tunnel vision had become my finest friend, because Bodhi was all I could see. He was my every desire, the focus of all my mind-numbing lust.

His fingers threaded my hair, and I tilted my head to allow greater access as he slid his tongue to the hollow of my neck. And all the while I rocked against him, whimpering my encouragement. His free hand found my panties, deftly sliding them over my ass and as far down my thighs as he could reach. I took over, wiggling until I was free of the constricting lace.

My hands slipped into the waistband of Bodhi’s pants. He hadn’t been kidding about the skin-tight sweats. I could barely wedge my fingers inside, but I managed. The second I freed him from the spandex, Bodhi’s dick sprang to attention and he wasted no time patting the nightstand for the pack of condoms.

“Breeze,” he panted. “I can’t find—”

“Side drawer,” I said, distracted by the feel of defined abs and muscled biceps.

Bodhi ripped open the foil and started to roll the latex over his shaft, but I pushed his hands away and took over, never breaking eye contact. I was in charge now, so I pushed him on his back, and lowered myself onto his formidable erection.

Flexing my internal muscles, I arched my back and prepared for the ride.

His hands molded my hips, guiding me, although it hardly seemed necessary. I knew just where to go and how to make this a rewarding experience for the both of us.

Bodhi shuddered, biting back a soft moan. The sensuous sound reverberated through me and I tingled. Somehow, he managed to pull the shirt over my head, exposing my breasts. Bodhi cupped one soft mound, circling my nipple with his thumb. And just when I thought it couldn’t get any more intense, he sucked the pebbled peak between his lips.

Groaning, I continued to meet his thrusts as his hand slid from my hip to my ass where he massaged the quivering flesh.

“Bodhi…”

My head fell back, teeth sinking into my bottom lip to keep from screaming.

Meeting his heavy-lidded gaze, I watched his face contort, a warm glow spreading through me. I was doing this to him.Me.

The world shimmered around the edges as he picked up the pace.

“Breeze… Jesus… I’m gonna…”

He came before the thought fully tripped from his lips. As the spasms rolled through him, his fingers found their way to my center. And then I was there, chasing him over the cliff and racing him to the bottom.

When the storm passed, and there were no sounds but our ragged breath, I collapsed against his chest.

“Oh my god,” I whimpered.

He stayed silent, just held me tight as his lips found that spot on my neck that he liked to nuzzle. But even without words, I knew how he felt. I sensed it in his touch. His kiss. This wasn’t justnothingbetween us. It couldn’t be becausenothinghad ever felt so right.

Bodhi gently pressed a kiss to my tender forehead.

“I was only kidding about your extra appendage,” he said huskily. “You’re beautiful. I hope you know that.”

My lips found his. Warm. Inviting.

This was what I’d been looking for all along. I nestled into his comforting embrace, not realizing how much I’d been holding onto until the burden was lifted from my shoulders. All the stress of cancelled nuptials, of uprooting my life and starting over from scratch. It had all been worth it for this singular moment. This tiny smudge in time.

An oversized tongue caught us unaware, coating our flesh in a giant helping of slobbery affection.

“Hercules,” Bodhi complained. “Way to ruin the moment.”

As Bodhi’s strong hands settled me at his side, a curious little head poked its way out from between the pillows. Sweetpea. Had the little voyeur been watching us the whole time? Apparently, Herc wasn’t the only perv of the animal kingdom.
