doubt she wants me. I knew she liked me in high school, but I was too fucked up to do anything about it back then. I take her back into my arms.
“Carrie it means that we can be together. It means I want you to stay with me in New York.”
She blushes. It makes her look even more gorgeous in the morning light that drifts into the room.
“Would I need to stay here at the hotel?”
I’m ready to answer that question. Thankfully, I talked to Jacob before about whether Carrie would need to stay in protection.
“The FBI isn’t taking a different direction with the case. They’re expanding the hunt. You can stay here, or go somewhere else, but it needs to be a place that’s safe, and I’m afraid you won’t be going home for a while.”
She bites her lip in the sexiest way, and tells me she wants to think about it. It’s clear on her face she’s still troubled, and all I want to do now is make it better.
“In the meantime, I have a day off, and I want to spend it with you.”
Chapter Four
Blake
She giggles. I enjoy that I can make her laugh under the circumstances.
“Now come here!”
I give her a mischievous look and she responds to my play perfectly with a demure, “I’m sorry, Detective Anderson. I didn’t realize how fast I was going.”
She flashes an innocent gaze up at me from under her lashes. We both laugh before the look between us becomes more intense.
“It’s about time you made more of an effort to do as you’re told.”
I say it playfully with a twinkle in my eye, but it seems to turn her on. She moves closer, and starts kissing me intensely. God, I just don’t know what I’m going to do with this woman.
I roll on top of her and kiss her again, my hand on her jaw, pulling her mouth up to meet mine.
“Carrie James, you’re in so much trouble!”
She says, “I know I am, but there’s no one better to keep me safe.”
Her words are delivered in the soft tones of a southern belle. We both know it’s a harmless game, but something in the way she meets my eyes makes me want to growl and claim every inch of that shining body.
“Well, little lady, if you’re willing to pay the price…”
I purposely put a similar drawl into my tone, but before I can go much further, she kisses me again. Her body is so supple and strong, I love that she has the confidence to play like this. My heart starts to pound faster. The desire in her eyes intensifies. She wriggles underneath me, turning to the side so her shapely hips press against my crotch. My cock is dying to burst out of my pants. It’s as hard as the marble statues in the lobby of this hotel, and I’m dying to feel her on it.
I look down at her.
“Carrie, for fuck’s sake, woman, you have no idea how sexy you are...”
I take one of her hardened nipples gently between my teeth. I want her to know how I feel. I want to see the pleasure on her face, and I want to know I’ve given it to her.
“Tell me what you want.” I breathe the words into her neck, close to her ear so she can hear how much I want to pleasure her.
“Blake, just make it all better. Take me.”
I’ve never been one for taking control, but there’s something so incredibly sexy in her tone. The way she trusts me to take care of her pleasure.
“Please,” she says again and gasps as I lick and suck at her neck. “Please just make me forget everything.”
I don’t need to hear another word. I ravage her neck and collarbones, sucking and gently kissing them, trying to show her exactly how I feel. I lace her hands in mine and gently pull them above her head. It arches her upper back, bowing her body, laying her out to wait for me.
I start between her luscious breasts and slowly work my way down towards her stomach. My arms are long enough that I can keep her hands firmly planted in the pillow above her head as I devour the space between her belly button and the top of her neatly trimmed bush. She’s so sensitive; squealing and giggling as I plant
