“Here’s a map. Can you read maps?” Bruce held out a crisp, folded paper.
“Have you even used this?” I asked, taking it. I opened it up and then turned it around, trying to get my bearings.
“No, but I’m good with direction.” Bruce moved up next to me. “Here you are.” He pointed at a picture of a fountain.
“But where’s the—” I cut off as I noticed the landmark some distance in front of us. There was no water running through it to announce its presence. “Ah. Got it.”
“Okay. Then you just…” Bruce pointed out the route with his finger. “Just follow that route.”
I took a glance around to make sure I had it, and then gave him a relieved smile. “Lifesaver! I’m supposed to be getting ready for dinner.”
“Back into uniform, huh?” Bruce stepped away with a smile. The businessman was still glowering at me.
“Yup. Gotta play dress-up. Okay, then. See ya. And thanks!” I gave him a salute and stomped on the gas. I probably shouldn’t have kept speeding but…well, it was fun.
At least I had met Bruce. That was a win. Assuming he didn’t think I was a lunatic.
Chapter Four
A knock sounded at the outer door to my room.
Crap! I finished fastening my necklace and hurried to open it, glancing at the closed inner door as I passed. The comment about Hunter and I using each other had popped into my head. Knowing that it was mostly him doing the using, I’d huffed and closed that inner door. It was an extremely passive-aggressive approach to the issue, but it had made me feel better.
I swung open the outer door to a waiting Hunter in stylish jeans and a dress shirt accenting his delicious torso. He’d styled his hair in that contained messiness that celebrities did so well, and cleared the stubble from his strong jaw. My tongue stuck to the roof of my mouth as the blackness of my mood turned into sparkles and unicorns.
“Hi,” I breathed.
“Are you ready?” His gaze drifted down my body.
I stalled in the doorway. I wanted to invite him in and strip off all his clothes. Then I wanted to lick one end to the other, savoring—
“Olivia?”
“Right! Earrings.” I shook myself out of my horny stupor and dashed back into the room. I grabbed the diamond earrings he’d given me. He had the necklace in a safe somewhere, which was good, because it was way too expensive to be hanging around my apartment, but the earrings he’d left. He didn’t seem to think they had much value.
They were the most expensive things I owned.
“Okay,” I said, fastening the last earring in place. “I’m as good as I’ll ever be.”
“Shoes?”
“What?” I looked down. My bare toes stared back up. Stupid!
I raced back in a second time. Where was my head?
I slipped into cute red heels that would cut into my feet and make me hate life. But they really did match the dress perfectly. Some things had to be borne.
“Okay. This time I’m really ready.”
“You’re perfect.” He stopped me in the doorway, stepping in a bit and leaning down to run his lips along my neck. My simmering sex flared to life. I clutched his shoulders and leaned my head back, giving him more access. The using each other grievance vanished like smoke.
His hand traced up my inner thigh, tickling. I widened my stance, moaning when those tricky digits reached my panty-covered sex.
“Hmmm, Hunter.” His lips traced my jaw. His fingers dipped into my panty line. I sucked in a breath as he entered my body.
“The door is open,” I said in a breathy exhale.
“I need you.” He stepped forward, making me step back quickly. The door closed with a thunk as he pushed me against the wall.
I worked at his jeans, ripping open the fly and pushing them out of the way. His hand wrapped around the inside of my knee and hiked my leg up around his hip. He sucked in a breath as I took his large manhood into my hand. His hips swung forward, letting me guide his tip to my opening. Once there, he thrust.
“Ohhhh God.” My eyes fluttered closed as he filled me. I lifted my other leg, wrapping it around him. Letting him take my weight. Sparks of pleasure erupted through my body.
“I’ve thought about doing this all afternoon.” He thrust again. Harder. “It always feels better than I remember.”
I turned my head as he came in close. My lips glanced off his. A thrill went through me as Hunter gave a low moan. My body wound up, so tight. His sex, filling me over and over, had bursts of ecstasy exploding through me.
“Yes,” I groaned, swinging my hips to him. Our bodies hit off each other. Everything tightened harder. Almost unbearable.
