to her toes.
“I’ve never had a man make me feel so…so amazing.” She hadn’t
meant to say the words, but it was the truth. Kate sucked in a sharp breath as
his hand went back to work, touching and teasing her sensitive lower parts.
Carter’s fingers circled her nub again, and again, and the
room started to disappear. The only thing she could focus on was his eyes, deep
blue and full of passion as he stared intently at her. Her core tingled, skin
tingled, everything intensified, about to lose control.
Carter watched as he brought her right up to the edge and then
let her plunge over.
Kate’s own moans of pleasure echoed off the walls of the
little room as her body shuddered hard and wave after wave of pleasure surged
through her.
Carter held her tight against his strong body as she came,
his fingers moved to her wet opening, touching her gently, giving her jolts of
continuing pleasure.
It was amazing that he could make her feel this way with
just his fingers. What would it be like when he filled her with his cock, when
they became one?
Carter relaxed his grip on Kate but waited until her legs
were steady before he let go.
She didn’t want him to stop touching her. She wanted more of
the passion, wanted Carter to make love to her and then hold her in his arms
the rest of the day, but she’d already let him touch her more than a
respectable lady should. Kate wasn’t going to be any more forward, she wouldn’t
beg him to make love to her.
“I am completely head over heels in love with you, Kate.” His
eyes danced mischievously with the statement.
“You are?” How could he be? They weren’t engaged, he wasn’t
really even courting her, but she felt it too. Just wasn’t ready to admit it
yet.
“I’ve lived all over the world, met many women, but none
that have affected me the way you do. I’m smart enough to not let an
opportunity like this pass me by, Kate. I want you to be mine.”
The breath sucked from her chest and she didn’t know what to
say. She felt the same way about him, but this was all so unexpected.
“I don’t want anything from you now. You need to take some
time. Think about it. I don’t want you to be overwhelmed by the suddenness of
all this, but I don’t want you leaving Alaska, leaving me without knowing
exactly how serious I am about you.”
“Okay.” She didn’t know what to say or how to react. She’d
thought he was interested in her, but she had no idea of how serious his
feelings for her were. He had hidden them very well, just as she had worked so
hard to do.
“Good.” Carter kissed her on the forehead and grabbed her
hand in his. “I’ll see you tomorrow, then.” He walked her toward the door and
then down the stairs without any resistance from her, even though she suddenly
felt the need to fight it.
“Tomorrow?” She still had a half day left of work. Why was
he sending her away?
“Yes. I want you to take the rest of the day off. Take some
time to think, to feel. I want you, Kate, but I don’t want to rush you.”
“Okay. I’ll see you tomorrow,” she agreed. Not that she had
much of a choice. He was her boss, he determined when she came and went.
Kate walked out, disappointed to be leaving Carter. She
moved slowly up the boardwalk to her house. Her legs still felt a little like
jelly from his touch, from the pleasure Carter gave her.
Instead of going inside where Opal was possibly
entertaining, she stopped in front of the house and looked out over the water.
What was she going to do now?
Kate stared at the endless dark sea. She was a long way from
home, a long way from anything that resembled her previous life, but the ocean
always brought this sense of calm to her. She needed that now more than ever.
Carter was a good guy, but she couldn’t jump into another
relationship because she needed to feel loved after being rejected by Sean. It
wasn’t fair to either of them. Carter was right. She needed to think long and
hard before she made
