file. “I’ve got an idea.”
Tania cleared the table. “What?”
“There’s enough money in this for us to start our own real estate agency. What do you think?”
She halted and then glanced at him. Her expression was incredulous, surprised. “You mean…we should go into business together?”
He watched her face, not sure what she was thinking. As far as Riley was concerned, they were in for the long haul. He couldn’t imagine a life without Tania. She was the real reason why he lived. But doing this would entwine their business with their personal lives. Was she willing to do it?
“That’s the plan,” he said.
She ran a hand through her hair. “I got a call from Martha offering me the job, but I think you’re right. It’s time we hit out on our own, and this money would give us enough to start the business. And we’re damn good together.”
Happiness exploded in his gut. He raised his hand towards her. “Better than the best. You and me together, sweetheart! We’ll set his town on fire.”
She put her hand in his and he drew her forward. Her breasts pushed against his chest as she stood toe to toe with him. This felt right. It was perfect. “You bet we will.”
His lips claimed hers. The kiss was slow, gentle. The desire that skidded over his skin was hot and needy. He wanted her. Riley had thought that as time elapsed, perhaps his passion for her would simmer down, but it seemed to gain in momentum. He wanted her more now than ever before. Her hands traveled up his chest and settled on his shoulders as she pushed her tongue deep inside his mouth.
He tasted her mouth while she plundered his. It felt good and right. As always, he took delight in the feel and touch of her. It was enough to drive him insane. Riley picked her up.
“Your arm?” she protested.
“It’s fine, sweetheart.” Once again, he kissed her as he walked to their room. Sometimes he couldn’t believe he was so lucky. They had made it. After all the trouble, the fights, and the fear, they were now safe. And from now, they were more than lovers; they were business partners. Surely, this said something for their relationship.
Once he reached the bed, Riley laid her down. She wriggled out of her clothes. The desire that skipped through his heart also gleamed in her eyes. He took off his shirt. Naked, Tania stepped off the bed and helped him take off his trousers. As he stepped away from his pants, she bent on her knees and before he understood what she intended, she ran her hands up his legs.
He froze.
Seizing the opportunity, she licked the tip of his cock with her tongue. He groaned. Her hand cupped his balls, rubbed, and caressed as he shuddered. There was a sudden roaring in his ears as she swept her tongue over his cock, sending blood rushing through his body. He sucked in a deep breath as she took him inside her mouth. The sensations, strong and heady, enveloped him.
He was close, too close. Riley pulled out of her mouth before she could bring him to climax. He didn’t want this to end without feeling her pussy around him. When she rose, he kissed her once more and made her lie on the bed. He couldn’t wait any more, but he wanted to take his time. He wanted to savor and take delight in this moment.
As he gazed down at her naked, magnificent body, his heart thundered inside his chest. She was so goddamned beautiful. He loved her more than he could explain, more than he could understand. There was no going back for either one of them. His gaze traveled down her gorgeous face to her swan-like neck, her heavy, firm breasts, to her flat stomach, and down to the lips of her pussy that were already wet with arousal.
He bent over her, and his mouth covered her swollen nipple. Her fingers ran through his hair while he played with her sensitive bud. She arched under him. Soft moans escaped her lips as he gorged on her breasts to his heart’s content.
