When her gaze met his again she felt her whole body become aroused.
“Keep going.” Where had her breath gone?
Those damn dimples deepened. “Anybody ever tell you you’re a nasty girl?”
“You’re a bad influence.”
“God, I hope so.” He shucked off his boots and reached for his zipper. Camo pants hit the floor along with his briefs in quick shucking movements.
Cole smiled. Oh yes. They were going to have fun in the narrow confines of his bed. “Looks like you’re happy to see me.”
He made a little pumping action with his hips that surprised and delighted her, his erection dancing happily along. “Come and get it.”
She watched him with a rapt fascination he’d never seen on any woman’s face but hers. For him. All for him.
He sighed despite his assurance of what she had in mind, when she reached for her top. As she undressed before him he didn’t see the thin lines of fading red or the bruises or anything but the lovely wonderful body of the woman he loved more than life.
When she reached for him, hand closing over his ready-to-go erection, he pulled her in and kissed her with everything he had to give.
And then he slid a hand between her legs and felt the glistening proof of her readiness for him.
He pulled her down on the bed beside him and kissed her until she was shivering. Then he lay back in what had once been a lonely boy’s bed and pulled her astride.
He watched her face as she raised herself up and then slid her body down over his. He watched her mouth open in pleasure at the filling that almost stopped his heart.
When she began moving on him, he thought he might not last. But then she looked down at him, a hard little frown on her lovely face.
“Don’t you dare. I’ve waited weeks.”
He grinned back, grabbed her by the waist and gave her the ride of her life.
He filled his mouth with her breast and his mind with her cries of pleasure and let the world as he had known it slide off and drift away.

The sound of a woman’s footsteps in the hallway, along with thumps and scampering that could only be Izzy and Hugo, startled them. Scott looked at Cole, tucked in the curve of his arm, and whispered in alarm, “Mom.”
A knock sounded on the door. “No hurry in there. Just wanted to let you kids know the dogs are hungry. Oh, and dinner’s ready when you are.”
As the sound of Cathy’s footsteps retreated back down the hall, Cole scrambled from the bed to unlock and open the door.
Ninety-five pounds of shaggy black Bouvier and sixty-four pounds of silky-smooth dark chocolate Lab bounded through the door and ran full-tilt toward Scott, who still lay in bed. They pounced on him together, barking in excitement as if let in on some game.
Smothering giggles with her hand, Cole approached the bed and looked down at Scott. “Are we ready?”
Scott sat up and reached for her, cupping her sweet naked ass in his palms. “For anything.”
