“My turn,” Digger growled.

It was the only warning he gave before the man leaned down, mimicking her every move.

Bringing his mouth to her lips, he kissed her even more thoroughly than before. When he was finished, he moved lower to her jaw, neck, and the dip at the front of her throat.

He rose up, wasting no time divesting her of her black tank-top and bra. With her upper half was bare and lying before him, Digger gave her hardened nipples the same delicious attention she’d given his.

Shadow’s back arched high when he took the first peak into his mouth. He was hot. Wet. His talented tongue and lips bringing her closer and closer to Heaven.

When he got his fill there, the incredible man stole another page from her impromptu playbook, using his mouth to follow the shallow line running vertically down the length of her toned abs. Digger reached the waistband of her cotton jogger shorts, and he didn’t so much as pause

His fingers dipped between her hips and the tops of her shorts and white lace panties. Shadow lifted her pelvis from the mattress in an effort to help. A ghost of a smirk lifted one corner of the baffling man’s lips as he seamlessly pulled the garments over her hips and down the curves of her smooth thighs.

She watched from where she lay fully naked in the center of the bed, taking in her fill of his mouthwatering form. Tanned skin, impressive muscles, and a heart much bigger than the stubborn man realized made him about as perfect of a man as any she’d ever known.

Digger crawled back onto the mattress and brought a hand to her bare sex. Using only his fingers, he began an erotic journey, running a fingertip the length of her slit. Shadow’s moan echoed off the white bedroom walls as he doled out the same delectable torture she that had.

His fingers were magic as they played her body like an instrument he’d already mastered. And when he pushed one deep inside her greedy core, she cried out to the heavens above.

In and out, he thrust his hand back and forth between her splayed thighs. She was wet and ready, her body practically begging him for more. And the sweet, selfless man seemed more than happy to oblige.

Leaning down, Digger brought his lips to her swollen, aching clit. And when his tongue flicked the taut bundle of nerves, Shadow cried out, already close to finding the ultimate release.

“Dig!” His shortened nickname flew from her mouth. Her hips pressed higher, her greedy body seeking everything this man was willing to give.

Digger increased his speed and the force of his hand as he continued using his mouth to drive her positively mad. He added a second finger, stretching her body in ways it hadn’t been in a long time.

The combination of movements and sensations proved to be damn near lethal. Her legs trembled, and she could feel her impending climax as it climbed higher and higher with every beat of her racing heart.

And just when Shadow was convinced it was possible to die from the erotic pressure, Digger used a little more force with the tip of his tongue, and then…

She began to fly.

Slade wasawestruck as he took in the sight of Shadow lost in the throes of passion. Breathtaking didn’t even begin to do the erotic scene justice.

Flushed skin. Disheveled hair. Firm, luscious breasts rising and falling with the sound of her audible breaths.

It was an image he’d already committed to memory.

“Wow.” The woman lying naked before him slowly opened her eyes. Staring up at him through a satiated gaze, she told him lazily, “That was…”

When she appeared to be struggling to find the words, Slade shot her a sideways grin.

“Tell me about it.” He let his grin inch closer to an actual smile. “Don’t move.”

“Don’t worry.” Shadow didn’t hesitate in her response. “I’m pretty sure my legs would just collapse beneath me if I tried.”

With a breathy chuckle, Slade turned around and walked unabashedly across the room. He’d noticed earlier that Owens’ men had left the go-bag they’d recovered from the cabin on the floor next to the dresser. Squatting down, he unzipped the bag and began to search for the small box he’d tossed into one of the inner pouches at the last minute.

At the time, he and Shadow were planning to be at the cabin for an undetermined number of days, and they had no idea what to expect in the way of threats. And since he’d learned early into his military career that condoms had multiple uses in the field…

Don’t be a dumbass. There’s only one reason you packed that box, and she’s lying on that bed right now waiting for you to return.

He tore open the box and ripped one of the foil squares free before dropping the others back into the gaping bag. With his hands on his knees, he pushed himself back up to his feet. Seconds later, Slade was standing at the edge of the bed.

“I thought maybe you’d changed your mind.”
