"What?" She followed his line of vision. "Did you think I was having fun without you?" she purred, slowly sucking the chocolate off each of her fingers. He could easily imagine her mouth fitting
somewhere else.
She was doing it again . . . trying to make him break first. And she'd nearly succeeded.
Damn it, how could he have been so stupid? "I apologize for interrupting you." He started to back out, but she sauntered forward, quite unembarrassed by her state of dress or, as it were, undress.
"Not so fast."
"I need to get back to work," he mumbled, but he couldn't take his eyes off her.Remember your
promise to . . . to . . . damn, what was his sister's name?
She shook her head. "Give it up, Alex. You want me."
He tried to leave. He just couldn't get the message from his brain to his feet. She moved in closer for
the kill. He drew in a sharp breath. The aroma from the burning candles tickled his senses. He stumbled back. She stepped forward, running her tongue over her lips.
She took his hands and brought them around behind her, planting each one on a bare ass cheek. "Don't you want to have sex with me?"
He struggled to breathe. Damn, her ass felt good. Soft and firm at the same time.
And he really thought the lack of spit would hold up in any court of law as not being a binding agreement.

If this didn't work, Kagen would give up for good. But from the look in his eyes, and the bulge in his pants, she didn't think he would be able to turn away this time.
"Oh, hell," he mumbled, and lowered his mouth to hers.
Ah, the sweet taste of success. His mouth covered hers in a scorching kiss that sent a burst of fire all the way to her toes and back up where it settled between her legs. Warmth swirled around her, enveloping her in sensuous pleasure.
He moved his mouth to the lobe of her ear and lightly bit, then soothed with a flick of his tongue that
sent tingles of pleasure sweeping over her.
"You taste like chocolate—and you're a temptress. Do you know what you've put me through?"
She moaned and closed her eyes. "Like last night wasn't meant to breakme? "
"Sorry. But you have your revenge." He knelt in front of her. His breath tickling the curls between her legs. "I'm groveling at your feet."
She laughed outright. "No, you're staring."
"That, too." He flicked the lacy triangle with his tongue. "And tasting."
She sucked in a deep breath and grabbed his head to steady herself as flames shot through her. Closing her eyes tight, she savored the feel of his wet tongue against her most sensitive area.
"Does it bother you that I'm tasting?"
Her breath whooshed out. "On the contrary, I'd rather you not stop."
He ran his tongue up and down the peach-colored lace. His hands cupped her buttocks, drawing her nearer as he nibbled, scraping his teeth across her. His tongue snaked inside the lacy thong, touching
. . . licking.
" I can't stand.. ."
"Do you want me to stop?" he asked.
"No, not that. I can't stand anymore. I mean, I'm going to fall over if I don't lie down, and no, I don't want you to stop."
He stood. A whimper escaped at the loss of his tongue against her sex.
"Don't worry. I don't want to stop tasting. But you've pranced around this apartment in sexy clothes
until I thought I'd go insane. You owe me." His gaze skimmed over her. "I want to see what's under the wrapping."
And she was happy to oblige. She reached behind for the hook to her bra, but he stayed her hands.
"I like to unwrap my own presents." He turned her around and quickly undid the clasp. "I've dreamt about what you would look like completely naked, lying on the bed, your legs open so I'd be able to
see every delicious inch."
He turned her back around, slipping first one strap off her shoulder, then the other. The bra slipped to
the floor.
"Nice." He sucked in a mouthful of air and cupped her breasts, rubbing his thumbs across the tender nubs.
She groaned and arched toward him.
He slid his hand downward and slipped two fingers inside her panties, rubbing against her clit. She caught her breath and grabbed his arms to steady herself. She could easily get used to his caressing fingers.
Just before she could experience sweet release from the building tension, he pulled his fingers away. She didn't have time to protest because he began massaging her breasts again, lightly tugging on her nipples.
A new pleasure began to build inside her.
When her knees began to buckle, he guided her to the bed and helped her lie down. With her legs dangling off the sides, he pulled her panties off and knelt down. "Now open up to me."
A flutter of indecision raced through her. She wasn't quite sure she wanted to be that exposed. It had
been different with the little bit of pink lace covering her.
He nudged her thigh. "I want to see you. I want to taste every inch. I want to run my tongue up and down your clit."
A shudder of excitement swept through her.
He spread her lips open and lightly ran his finger over her. "You're so lovely. Open up for me."
She opened her legs and heard his indrawn breath just before his mouth covered her, sucking, tugging, and pulling on the flesh. She cried out as her hips rose off the bed.
"Do you like that, Kagen?"
"Yes," she cried out. "Ahh, it feels ... so ... good."
"Only good?"
"Great... fantastic ...just don't stop. "
He chuckled and reached a finger toward her. "Maybe I can make it better. Take my finger in your mouth."
"I'd rather suck on something else," she managed to say, but obediently opened her mouth.
"Oh, I plan to let you, but I'm not through with you yet."
She dutifully suckled his finger. He groaned.
He tugged his finger away and nudged her legs open farther. "Ah, sweet," he breathed, and inserted his wet finger inside her. "How about this. Do you like this?" Slowly, he moved his finger inside ... then out. Her breath came in little gasps as he moved faster. He lowered his mouth to her once more and began licking while his finger kept up a steady pace.
"Come for me, baby," he murmured against her.
She didn't disappoint him as spasms trembled down her body and exploded into an orgasm. She cried
out, her body going limp. This was what she'd been waiting for all her life. As the spasms continued to rock through her she vaguely saw Alex strip. She wanted to watch, but she was still caught up in the sensations sweeping over her. There would be time enough later. She had no doubt about that.
He lay beside her on the bed and ran his hand lightly over her sweaty body before cupping one breast
and rubbing the pad of his thumb over her nipple. "I loved watching your face when you came."
"I'm glad I pleased you. I think I can do better than an expression, though."
She drew in a shaky breath, reached down, and circled his hard penis. He sucked in a deep breath as
she ran her hand over the tip, enjoying the smooth, slick feel. Renewed energy rushed through her. She nudged him onto his back, wanting to give him as much pleasure as he'd given her.
She ran her tongue over his chest, flicking across each nipple, and moving her head lower, swirling her tongue over the end of his shaft before taking him into her mouth.
He groaned and arched his hips. "You don't know how many times I've dreamt of your mouth on me
like this."
As had she. He tasted wonderful. Smooth and satiny. She couldn't get enough.
"No more or I'll explode," he finally groaned.
"Tit for tat." She grinned, liking the fact that she was in control.
He scooped under her arms and slid her slick body up his. "I want to be inside you. I'll have to get something out of my room first, th
ough."
From her position on top of him she could reach her dresser if she stretched. "I've got you covered."
"In more ways than one."
She chuckled and brought out a handful of foil packets. "Ribbed or smooth."
"It won't matter if we don't hurry." His pained expression said it all.
"Then by all means, let's not dally." There would be a lot more time to dally around later. She glanced down. "Extra large." She ripped one of the packets open.
Exactly how did one do this? She'd never actually put a condom on a man before. No time like the present. Besides, how hard could it be? She glanced down at him and smiled. Nice and hard.
She rather enjoyed sliding the rubbery material over his erection. And from the look on Alex's face, he didn't mind her touching him.
Before she had any time at all to admire her handiwork, he'd flipped her onto her back and prodded her legs open, slipping inside. She didn't even get a chance to explain she wasn't through checking him out. When he pushed deeper, all reasonable thoughts departed.
He filled her. Her body closed snugly around him. She brought her legs up and wrapped them around his waist. Her inner rnuscles clenched and unclenched.
"You're tight," he moaned with pleasure.
She arched toward him. "You're big."
Kagen thought she heard him chuckle; she wasn't sure and didn't really care as he started a friction of heat inside her with each thrust. She briefly wondered if this was the way cavemen had discovered how to make fire.
All thoughts ceased to exist as passion gripped her body and she climaxed. Alex jerked and groaned. He eased himself down, making sure his weight wasn't resting on her before rolling onto his side.
The sound of their ragged breathing filled the room. Kagen didn't want this magical spell that had been cast over them to dissipate. She felt too good. All warm and cozy. Alex snuggled her into the crook of
his arm, and she felt complete.
"I'm sorry you broke your promise to Lisa," she told him on a yawn.
"Really?"
She thought about it for a moment. "No, it just seemed the thing to say."
She lay back against the pillows, closing her eyes as sweet exhaustion claimed her mind and body. As
she drifted into a light sleep her thoughts were on Alex, and she knew this was going to be the best week of her life.
* * *
Alex slowly came awake. Kagen had turned over and was snuggled in the crook of his arm, spoon fashion. He reached toward her but drew his hand back at the last minute.
Ah hell, what had they done? What hadhe done? A sharp image of Kagen sucking and licking him filled his mind. Great! Not awake more than a few minutes and she already had him hard and hurting—and
she was still sound asleep!
But the cure for his pain was nestled next to him.
Don't even go there.He eased away from her. She moaned softly and rolled to her back.
It wouldn't take much to have her hot and ready for him. His hungry gaze devoured her breasts. Just
one touch, one scrape of his fingers across her tender nipples, and they'd harden. His gaze lowered, sweeping past her flat stomach, and topping at the curls between her legs. Hiding what he'd looked
upon earlier, what he'd tasted. What his tongue had explored.
As if sensing his need to see more of her, she shifted her position, one knee crooked, exposing her to
his view.
Alex drew in a sharp breath; his hand reached toward her. He pulled back at the last moment. But even though his hand was stayed, he couldn't stop feasting his eyes on her beauty. This was the essence of
her being. The heart of the woman she was.
"It's okay to touch," she spoke so softly he thought at first he'd only imagined her words. But when she took his hand and guided it downward, toward the vee of her legs, he knew he hadn't.
He hesitated.
She smiled. "You can't unbreak the promise you made. The damage is done." She sighed. "Do you
really think Lisa will care that much?"
He grinned. "No, you're right."
She surprised him by rolling on top of his body and staring down into his face. "Good, then will you shut up and make love to me?" She closed her eyes and arched her back so she had a tighter fit against the lower half of his body. "Umm, that feels good."
Her hands rested on her thighs as she raised up and slid down, impaling her body on his. He watched through slitted eyes. The rise and fall of her breasts, her ragged breathing. He watched it all until his
eyes glazed with passion and he lost himself in the moment and everything it had to offer.
She pumped faster and faster. Her hot body closing over his, her muscles contracting and releasing. He grabbed her ass, going with the motion, raising his hips for each thrust. His body exploded in a sensation of hot lights and erotic sounds as he came.
Seconds later, Kagen grabbed her thighs and groaned, then crumpled to his chest. Their ragged breathing filled the room.

As she lay against Alex's chest, Kagen could hear his heart beating. She liked the steady rat-a-tat-tat blending with her own heartbeat. In fact, everything about the last few hours had been satisfying. She sighed.
"I suppose I need to get back to work. I still have more to do on my program if I want to have it ready
in time for my meeting," he interrupted her thoughts.
Satisfying until now, that was. She raised her head and looked at him. "Wham, bam, thank you, ma'am?"
He smiled. She decided she liked the way his lips curved upward. Humor went all the way to his eyes
and twinkled in the corners.
"I don't think the last hour or so could be called a quickie," he informed her.
"No, you're right. Definitely a longie." She folded her hands and rested her chin on them, averting her eyes away from his face. "You can't very well go back to the computer before you shower."
"Are you saying I smell?"
"No, just that you'd be uncomfortable. I mean, all sweat-dried and icky feeling."
"And what exactly are you suggesting?"
She lightly drew circles on his chest with her finger. "Just that we might save water by bathing together. Steve and Lisa's tub is awfully large . . . and a whirlpool. It'd be a shame if we didn't try it out at least once."
It wasn't hard for her to imagine the two of them naked in a tub filled with bubbles. She'd scrub his back .. . he'd scrub hers.Admit it, you're fascinated with the man and want the moment to last. But it was
just a fascination. She wasn't getting emotionally involved. She wouldn't let herself.
"Steve and Lisa might care if they knew exactly what we'd do in their bathtub," Alex said.
Her eyes met his. "I won't tell if you won't."
"Deal."
She liked the devilish quirk almost as much as his sweet smile. No, maybe better. It made her wonder
just what he was thinking.
"I'll start the water." She scooted off him, and the bed. She could feel his intense gaze as she made her way across the room. Good. She wanted him to look.
At the doorway, she turned, giving him a full frontal view. His gaze slowly slid down her body. She liked the compliment his eyes paid her. It was better than any words.
She slipped out the door, chuckling when she heard his frustrated groan. Once inside the large bathroom, she turned the faucets on, adding a small amount of fragrant bubble bath. As water poured into the tub, the rich scent of vanilla began filling the room. Her body tingled with the thought of what the two of
them could do. It didn't matter they'd already enjoyed the last couple of hours or so exploring each
other's body. She wanted him again.
Now to finish setting the mood. She retraced her steps and went back to the bedroom, frowning when
she saw Alex wasn't in the bed.
What if he'd decided not to join her in the bathtub after all?
/> She was still frowning when she walked back into the bathroom with the candles and relit them. Before she could dwell on thewhat ifs , Alex stepped into the room balancing a tray of food with one hand and holding two glasses and a bottle of beer in the other.
"I thought we could have a bathtub picnic. No wine, though. We'll have to settle for beer." He smiled. "You don't mind that I swiped some of your chocolate, do you? I have a terrible sweet tooth."
A man after her heart. She sauntered over to him and took the beer and glasses. "I love a man with good taste." And he tasted very good. She set the glasses and bottle on a small table she pulled near the tub.
