Dean stood and stared at his shoes. “I had a really
bad breakup a year and a half ago. I didn’t handle it well. But, in my defense,
I’d been with the girl for over a year, and it was one of those I didn’t see it
coming deals. She did some pretty horrible things, including stealing money
from me and cheating on me.”
“That’s awful.” My heart went out to him. I wanted to hold
him, take all that pain from him. But would he hate me now for believing those
things about him? I’d been so stupid to let Russell get me worked up like that.
“It makes it difficult to trust people, but you’re
different. You’re not like other women.” Dean lifted his head. And, oh, those
dreamy eyes. Shimmering and half-hooded.
“No?” The word squeaked out.
“No.” He walked around the table and ran the back of his
hand along my arm. “I’m sorry Russell scared you. I know we’re moving a little
fast. I never expected it to happen this way, but I don’t regret one second
since I met you.”
Sparks of desire ignited within me. I could hardly breathe.
He wasn’t walking out. And he was the one apologizing. He was way too good for
me, and I wanted him more for it.
“I don’t either.” My husky voice trembled. “I’m the one who needs
to apologize. I shouldn’t have let Russell get to me like that. It’s just that,
in some ways, I think you’re too good to be true, and life, for me, usually
sucks.”
Dean turned me away from the chair and wrapped his arms
around my body. “Then I’m glad I could bring something good into your life.” He
leaned in. His supple lips so close to mine. “I want you to be happy.”
“I am.” My fingers traipsed up his arms so I could wrap mine
around his shoulders. My nipples hardened as I pressed my chest to his. He hadn’t
even kissed me and I was ready to collapse into a steamy puddle of goo. Not a
pleasant image. Too much like Odo in his bucket on Deep Space Nine .
All gooey images were chased away when he did kiss me. Slow
and deep. His tongue knew just how to tease mine, when to dart in and out, and
when to allow his teeth a nip at my lower lip. My hands lost themselves in his
hair as I surrendered to the kiss with a soft moan.
He pushed me back so my butt hit the table and then coaxed
me to sit on top of it. I scooted even farther back, parting my legs so that he
fit between them. The bulge in his pants bumped up against my hot spot. I
gasped and quivered. I wanted him like I wanted nothing before in my life. He
was the Westley to my Buttercup. The Han Solo to my Leia.
I kissed him hard. No, more like Zoe and Wash. More down and
dirty sex that way!
He fondled my left breast, kneading it and teasing the hard
nub through the fabric of my shirt and bra. “I want you. Right here, right now.”
His lusty growl stole away any reason I had left. Right here
in the seminar room where anyone could walk in on them? That was insane. We
could get kicked out of the hotel. And it made me wetter yet.
Reaching between his legs, I squeezed his thick cock before
popping open the button of his jeans. I forced the zipper down as I slipped my
hand into his boxers. His erection twitched and throbbed against my palm.
Pre-cum smeared over the tip of his penis, sticky like honey.
I kissed down his neck, bending so that I could lick his
cock clean. Dean snagged my chin and brought me back up to kiss.
“I’ve got a condom in my wallet.” He fumbled behind him,
yanking his wallet free of his back jeans pocket.
“Another robe for Gandalf?” I grinned against his mouth and
gave him a few tugs.
Dean groaned as he chuckled. “Nope. Just Trojan. An eager
little warrior.”
“Nothing little about it.” I stroked him thrice more before
helping to free his erection so that he could slide the condom on.
“Flatterer.” He tossed his wallet on the table and opened
the package. The condom rolled on in less than two seconds. “You’re just saying
that because you want some
