Chapter 156

• Panting, I finally still, my legs flopping down as I’ve zero ability to hold them up any longer, my body sated and tired. He moves up and over me and gives me a slow, sexy kiss on my mouth, his tongue gently caressing mine with the taste of my completion, a soft, erotic molding of mouths with gentle and toe-curling kissing. He pulls back with a satisfied look in his eye and the hint of a smile, leaning over me like a proud predator surveying its dead prey. I would let him dive in and devour me again to feel this way every second. He bends as though to kiss me but pauses at a knock on the door, his face instantly changing to irritation with a furrowed brow.
• “What is it?” he barks at the door. I stifle a giggle at his annoyance; it’s a fate worse than death to interrupt Jake mid-sex. He smiles at me, shaking his head, and jumps up to grab some sweatpants and throw me a towel. I scurry to wrap myself up tightly before disappearing to the walk-in closet, away from the view of the door.
• He pulls the pants on and opens the door, keeping it closed enough to conceal the bedroom and me in stages of undress. He talks to whoever is on the outside, but I can only hear mumbles. I wait with my towel around me, unsure if I should dress or if he’ll return to what we were doing. My body feels like liquid; I’m sure if I look in the mirror, I’ll be glowing and flushed and showing signs of having been ravaged. I’m breathless as hell and overheated.
