lips since that first day in your classroom, and I’m tired of waiting.” The grit of the brick marked his hand as he leaned in and claimed her mouth. She pressed her breasts against his chest and submitted to the kiss. The taste of the beer still clung to her lips, and the smell of her strawberry shampoo had him reaching for her hair. When her tongue met his, it sent a shock straight to his cock. He couldn’t help the growing bulge in his jeans. This woman had him twisted in knots. Her body was made for his, and he couldn’t get enough.
When she noticed his arousal, she quickly pulled away from him. She placed her hand on his chest and said, “We need to stop, Bishop. There are so many reasons why this is wrong.”
He stepped closer, closing the gap she created. “I know you feel just how right this is.”
Her hands quickly swept across the back of his neck. She pulled him in closer as she whispered, “I don’t want to feel it, but I do.” She gently ran her fingers through the back of his hair as she began kissing him again. She moved her body closer as she moaned into the kiss and his knee pressed between her legs. His hand was cupping her breast, when his cell phone rang. He ignored it and continued rubbing his thumb over her taut nipple. She arched her back towards him as he began to pull the strap of her tank down her shoulder. He had just started to kiss and suck the curve of her neck when his phone began ringing again. He groaned loudly as he pulled away from her body. “Goddamn it!”
He looked up at Tessa as she gave him a frustrated look. “Sorry, but I gotta take this call. It’s late, and something might be up with one of the brothers.” When he checked his phone, he saw that it was Goliath calling. “This better be good, man!”
“We need ya back at the clubhouse. Get back here as soon as you can,” Goliath said.
“On my way,” Bishop told him as he thrust his phone into his pocket. His fiery eyes locked on Tessa’s. “I hate to leave you like this, but something is going down at the clubhouse that I have to take care of. I’ll have one of my guys take care of your car first thing in the morning. Get some rest, and I’ll be in touch.” He gave her one more kiss, slow and hungry, and then left for the clubhouse.
Chapter 10
Tessa
Tessa gathered the empty beer bottles from the porch and headed into the house. The past few minutes were still replaying in her head. As she made her way into the kitchen, her mind kept wandering back to how good his mouth felt on hers. It amazed her how quickly things had become so heated between them.
She still felt the warmth of his body on her skin as she entered her bedroom. As she brought her fingers to her lips, she noticed they were slightly swollen, and she smiled. She could still smell a hint of Bishop’s cologne surrounding her, and she hesitated to change into her pajamas. Just having his scent around her made their time together linger just a bit longer.
She slowly slipped into her camisole and silk shorts wishing that he hadn’t been called away so soon. It had been such a long time since she had been with anyone. She hadn’t even really been kissed like that since her divorce. Tonight, she couldn’t imagine ever wanting a kiss more, and she was disappointed that it had ended so abruptly. Her thoughts led her to worry about what might have been wrong. She began to wonder what kind of things actually happened at his clubhouse, and what could have been so important that he would have to leave so quickly. What do these motorcycle guys do anyway and why do grown men need a club?
She finally got herself settled in bed when her phone rang. She figured it was Courtney calling her back.
“Hey, Tess, you okay? I saw that you called my phone like twenty times earlier tonight. I tried calling you back, and you didn’t answer. Then, on my way home I saw your car on the side of the road. What the hell? Are you alright? Did you make it
