In His Bed(19)

Lea gave a snarky laugh. “I didn’t figure she did.”

“When I got there, she closed the door to her office and basically attacked me. She had several more years of experience than I did and gave me a lesson in anatomy that afternoon. I hate to admit it, but I had no clue I was doing everything wrong when it came to a woman’s pussy. She guided me and the next thing I knew she was coming over and over. It was awesome.”

“Well,” she said then yawned, “I’m grateful for the professor. She was obviously a valuable instructor.”

He laughed. “She was pretty great. I ended up with an A in criminal psychology. I’d like to think it was because I was so smart, but I figure she just really liked my dick.” When Lea smacked his chest, he leaned back as if she’d knocked him out. When he pulled her against his chest, her expression softened, her sleepy eyes opening and closing. He leaned down, tickled her cheek with his nose, and nibbled the shell of her ear. “Can I stay here tonight?” he asked, Charlie already crawling up against his back.

Lea peeked over his shoulder to find the dog curled up. “I guess it’s not up to me. She’s already made up her mind.” She smiled and lay back down, turning on her side. When she tucked her warm curves against his stomach, his body instantly relaxed. “An A, huh? Your dick must’ve been pretty impressive.”

He could feel her chest shake with laughter.

He grinned and pressed against her generous ass, letting his cock nestle between the plump globes. “I don’t mean to brag, but...”

“Colin! Okay. Okay. It’s worthy of an A.”

He cradled the crest of her hip in his hand, trying not to grip so hard he’d leave a bruise. When he pressed against her ass, the warm sensation of her bare skin rubbing his underwear sent ripples through his cock. He needed to come but wanted this night to be about the woman in his arms. He prayed there would be other opportunities for his turn.

“Your body’s like a machine,” she said. “I’ve never touched a man built like you. The guys I usually date are...more like golfers and less like baseball players.”

He leaned down and kissed her cheek. “So you’re saying I have a hard body, huh? Like down here?” He pressed against her backside again. “Or here?” Trying not to laugh, he reached over and flexed his biceps.

“Oh my God. Muscles!” She rolled over, pressing her gorgeous tits against his chest. The soft heat hugged him in a warmth he’d never felt before. “Maybe,” she said, exploring her hand down the front of his chest until he felt slight fingertips skim along his stomach. He sighed, too impatient to wait for her to move further. “I mean this, too.”

Goddamn, he thought he was going to come in his underwear when she pressed her palm against his dick. “Jesus, Lea that feels so good.”

“For me, too. I’ve wanted to feel you since we were in the pool.”

God, he needed more. “Do you want to do this?”

When she dipped her chin, he knew he’d pushed too far. There was no way in hell he was going to rush this.

“Listen,” he said, pressing his lips against the crown of her head. As he ran his fingers through her hair he eased away from her hand. “I want you to fall asleep in my arms. Would that be okay? Nothing else, Lea. I want you to fall asleep knowing I’m here to protect you.”

She turned in his arms, molding her lush body against the length of him. “If this is so wrong, why does it feel so good?”

Her whispered tone made him want to comfort her, make her relax and steal the worries keeping her on the edge of what could be between them. “We can sort everything out later. Let me hold you—make you forget about what can keep us apart. Tonight, let’s pretend the world doesn’t exist and it’s just us.”

She yawned and snuggled as tight as she could against him. “Just for tonight.”

He tenderly slipped the hair away from her neck and pressed his lips against the delicate shell of her ear. “I can’t wait to wake up next to you.”

“Come on, Lea! Get real. I don’t care if he is Stacey’s son. You saw his ass,” Rachel said as they looked across the gym. “What do you want to do?”

Lea turned the water bottle in her hand. “We could ride the bikes or use the elliptical?”

Rachel snorted. “I’m not getting on that death trap. I can’t breathe on the damn thing. Let’s ride the bikes. We can use the ones in the free weight room. I like watching the young hotties lifting weights.”

Lea laughed. “I hope Scott doesn’t know you watch hotties while he’s at work.”
