Angelique wrapped her arms around his neck, sinking into
the warm sensation that being around Connor stirred inside
her. She froze, knowing this might not be what was best for
her, but with him being here—so close, and apparently
so ready too—she didn't know if she had it in her to
turn him away.
Connor pulled back a little, concern darkening his
eyes. "Tell me if you don't want this."
She opened her mouth to refuse him, to distance herself,
but the words wouldn't come. What was the problem with
giving in? She leaned forward, pushing her fingers into his
dark blond hair. Her lips met his, and he groaned.
He gripped her hips, tugging her forward on the counter,
pressing her close to him. Close enough to feel his hard
cock hiding beneath his suit pants. They'd never gone this
far before in their relationship. She hadn't let him get
close because of Kira, but Kira wasn't a problem right now.
Angelique smiled against his lips and pushed off
Connor's suit jacket, letting it fall to the kitchen floor.
He stepped back a little, grabbing for her jacket. She let
him unzip it and toss it to the floor next to his. His
hands brushed over her torso from just under her breasts,
over her stomach, and down to the hem of her undershirt.
She sucked in a breath as his warm hands met her skin.
He slowly slid the top up and watched her face. She
should stop him, but she didn't want to. Sharing this with
him, regardless of what came after, would be a delicious
birthday present.
She lifted her arms, and he slipped the shirt over her
head, revealing her bare chest. She'd been at home for the
night and hadn't worn a bra.
His eyes burned with lust, and she noticed a tick in his
jaw as if he were struggling to control himself. He didn't
need to think she was made of glass. This wasn't her first
time.
She tugged his shirt out of his pants and worked the
buttons from the holes. Underneath the silk was a finely
chiseled chest. His workout regime must be relentless.
Connor chuckled, and she glanced up at him, cocking an
eyebrow. "What?"
"That look on your face. You're almost drooling." He
smirked. "I like that."
"I am not." Angelique shoved against his chest, but he
didn't budge an inch. His muscular pecs beckoned her. She
slid her hands over that hot expanse of skin toward his
belt. Her lips pressed against his chest, and she trailed
kisses over it.
Connor's chuckle faded and turned into a groan. He
planted his hands on the counter beside her knees, staying
there and not moving away from her lips. "I want you,
Angel." His husky voice was a near whisper.
