he was dominating her. She loved a man in control when it came to passion and sex and she had a feeling that Tate could be everything she wanted and more.
She moaned as he grasped her hip with one of his large hands and pulled her tightly up against him as he slipped his hand into her hair and cupped the back of her head.
His erection was large and rigid against her and a thrill went through her from her belly to the place between her thighs that now ached to have him fill her. Her nipples were hard and tight as his chest pressed against her breasts.
She slid her arms to his neck, her hunger fierce, unbridled. He grasped her ass in both hands and then she wrapped her thighs around his hips and he was carrying her.
The next thing she knew, her back was up against the wall, his jean-clad cock pressed against her hot center. She wished her own jeans as well as his were gone and that he was sliding into her now.
Her mind spun from the kiss and she could barely breathe. He moved one of his hands beneath her top and his palm cupped her breast through the satin of her bra. She gasped as he fondled and pinched her nipple.
He broke the kiss and she tilted her head back as he moved his lips down the column of her throat to the V of her blouse. He shoved up the material and pulled down her bra, exposing her breasts to his gaze.
Her nipples tightened even more and she gave a loud moan as he ran his tongue over each of the hard nubs. She slid her hands into his hair, pressing him tighter to her breasts as he sucked and licked one nipple and then the other.
He moved his hips, rubbing his cock against her, mimicking what he would do when he took her. His cock was so rigid and hard that it felt like it could bruise her if he pressed any harder.
He stilled, his breathing ragged, and he put his forehead against hers. “I’d better go,” he said, his voice hoarse as he let her slide down so that she was standing.
She looked at him with surprise. “You’re leaving?”
He inhaled then raised his head and studied her. “I don’t want just a hop in the sack with you, Jo. I want all of you.”
Her lips parted as she tried to think of what to say. It was too soon. She didn’t even know that she wanted a relationship. What did he want from her?
“When can I see you again?” His words were soft as he spoke them.
“I—” She swallowed. “I don’t know.”
“Tell you what.” He stroked a strand of hair from her eyes. “I’ll stop by Jo-Jo’s late this week. We’ll talk about it then.”
She hesitated then nodded. “All right.”
“I’d better go because staying here is about to break my resolve,” he said softly.
She nodded and he gave her another light kiss before they adjusted her clothing, then walked to the front door. He opened it and she stood in the doorway as he looked down at her for a long, lingering moment. Then he headed down the sidewalk and in a minute or two he was driving away, leaving darkness in his wake.
Chapter 6
It was Thursday night and Charlee was waiting for David in a small Italian restaurant that had a cozy, intimate atmosphere.
David walked into the dining area, spotted her, and headed in her direction. She couldn’t help smiling as she watched him come closer. His brown hair was slightly wavy and he had an athletic build with a purposeful stride. He was classically handsome with high cheekbones and firm lips, and the most beautiful blue eyes that she loved to stare into. He reached her, sat down, and pulled his chair up to the table.
“Hello, beautiful.” He gave her a sexy smile as he settled close to her, leaned close, and brushed his lips across hers.
“Hi.” She loved the way he called her beautiful and she shivered a little at the touch of his lips and as she felt the press of his thigh against her knee. A thrill went through her as he met her gaze, his look smoky and sensual.
He was so handsome, so mature, so exciting. He was everything she could want in a man.
