Billionaire Bachelors 9 : Hidden Treasure(27)

She had come out to win the men over, and she'd been more than successful - they were practically eating out of her hand right now. But she hadn't expected the reaction she was getting from Colt. Sure, she knew he wanted her. Hadn't that been obvious from the kisses they'd shared? But the hunger burning in his eyes was beyond what she'd ever seen before.

Was she afraid? She couldn't answer that.

His look was sending her body into overdrive and she was more than willing to answer the animal lust in his expression. Her mind was doing its best to tell her this was wrong, was trying to stop her from making a mistake.

Its best wasn't anywhere in the vicinity of good enough. When he stopped right in front of her, she didn't care what her brain was saying. All she cared about was how her body felt, and as he placed his hand on the back of her neck, she knew she wasn't going to tell him no.

The only thing she was going to do was faint if he didn't lean down and kiss her right this second. As if he could read her mind, he lowered his head, and then fireworks exploded when his lips captured her.

This time, he wasn't slow. This time, he didn't ask silently by softly touching his tongue to her lips. No. This time, he was showing her that he was in charge. He was pressing his body against hers and it was already hard and ready and sending all the right signals to her core. His tongue demanded entrance into her mouth, and she was ready for him, too.

Melting against the slick hardness of Colt's chest, and with his strong arms caging her in, Brielle surrendered happily. She wrapped her arms around his solid shoulders and held on tight while he kissed her more deeply than any other man had ever come close.

When his hand slipped down her nearly na**d back and clutched the wet material of her short shorts, she moaned into his mouth, forgetting there was anyone else on the ranch. She ached for his touch, ached for him to quench the flames blazing through her.

When he pulled back, she whimpered, not understanding why he would possibly stop when they were just beginning. "House, now!" was his answer to her unspoken question, and then the breath was pushed from her lungs when he lifted her up and hoisted her over his shoulder.

Brielle was horrified. He was carrying her caveman style into the house, and in front of who knew how many of her workers, but when he slammed the door shut behind them, and she opened her mouth to protest his Neanderthal ways, he simply pressed her against the door and began where he'd left off back at her truck.

Any and all objections faded away.

She was lost as he gripped her thighs and lifted her, letting the door help hold her up as his body pressed against hers and he pushed against her core, making the fire burning deep inside turn her into red-hot lava.

His mouth commandeered hers as he traced her lips with his sure tongue before entering again and making her veins tingle and throb. He cupped her sweetly rounded behind with his hand as she clamped her legs tightly around him.

When he slipped his fingers beneath the hem of her cutoffs and touched her flesh, she moaned, opening her mouth further to his probing tongue.

This wasn't what she'd planned when she started out of the house late this morning, but as he pushed against her, she understood that plans were made to be broken. Best-laid plans. This was a much better way to spend her afternoon.

"I need you, Brielle," he groaned, after barely pulling back far enough from her mouth to speak.

"Then take me, Colt." She let her head fall back against the door, and he began nibbling down her neck.

"Please tell me you're sure..."

Why did he need to say this? She didn't want to think about whether or not she was sure, didn't want to analyze the situation. All she wanted to do right now was feel - feel everything he was doing to her, and more.

"Yes," she said, because she was sure that if they didn't complete this, she would curl up and die.

That settled that. Still holding her against him, he pushed away from the door and began moving to the staircase. She didn't ask him how he knew where her room was; she was too focused on the way he was licking along her neck.

He climbed the stairs with her in his arms, and he didn't even grow short of breath. That was something for her to think about later. The sheer strength this man possessed was a huge turn-on for her. She'd never been carried off before. And she'd never felt so sure of anything in her life.

When he reached her room, she was ready for him to rip her clothes right off, but he somehow managed to set her down gently on the bed, then step back and take a long look at the picture she made. 

Her flesh was pink, her ni**les hard, and her shorts too tight. She wanted all barriers between them gone. As if reading her mind, he reached down and began undoing his jeans. She couldn't remove her gaze from the beautiful trail of hair that led to the buttons there. Each one that he undid brought her that much closer to seeing his magnificence.
