Quinn was flushed and happy when they were finally ready to sit down and eat, Knox looking pretty damn content as well.
His phone began buzzing where he’d left it on the counter, and he went and grabbed it in case it was work, frowning after he’d finished reading the text.
“What is it?”she asked, a trace of concern winding through her.
He looked up, his dark eyes stormy.“Adam Qureshi is back in the States.”
Chapter 24
––––––––
THAT NIGHT, THEY MADElove slow and sweet.Their passion-fueled time in the bedroom earlier was replaced by something soft and more tender.Knox slowly stripped her down, kissing her everywhere.She tugged at his clothes, admiring his chiseled chest, hard muscles, and throbbing cock.He was athletic and muscled but so damn gentle with her.
Knox had grabbed a box of condoms from his bag, tossing it onto her nightstand.“Ambitious,” she joked, noting he’d brought the entire box.
His cock bobbed.“He’s eager to get inside you,” Knox teased.But then he pinned her to the mattress, kissing her breathless.“And I’m eager to make love to the woman I’ve fallen for.”
Tears smarted her eyes as she looked up at him.
Knox kissed her gently.“I love you, Quinn.You’re smart, fearless, kind, and absolutely gorgeous.You’re everything I’ve been looking for.When I realized you’d been kidnapped, it nearly killed me.I’m so damn grateful we found you.”
She reached up, cupping his face with her hands.The stubble on his jaw rubbed against her palms, and she thrilled at his words and touch.Knox was gruffly masculine, sensitive, yet commanding.Loyal.Brave.And he was hers.“I still can’t believe you flew across the world looking for me.”
“Nothing would’ve stopped me,” he swore.
She smiled up at him, a stray tear rolling down her cheek, which Knox quickly thumbed away.“I love you, too, Knox.So much that it scares me.”
He took one of her hands, kissing the palm.“I’ll never hurt you.I know how lucky I am.You could have any man you want, and you’re here with me.”
“I only want you,” she promised, her heart fluttering.
He lowered his head, kissing her passionately.Thoroughly.Both of their hands roamed, Quinn exploring Knox’s interesting dips and muscles, Knox taking his time to kiss and caress all her curves.When she pleaded for him to finally make love to her, he sheathed himself, rolling atop her once more.Quinn felt his cock twitch against her bare thigh, Knox already rock hard and ready.His hand slid to her sex, finding her wet.“You’re ready for me,” he said, trailing his fingers through her slick folds.
She flushed, and he flashed her a hot look.
Knox shifted so his hard length was resting against her pussy lips.“You need my cock, angel?”he asked, growling as she shamelessly rubbed against him.
