The next few seconds were a blur. Vivienne was thankful for the car’s support or she might have sunk to the ground. She wasn’t aware of Jack’s actions, having squeezed her eyes tightly shut against the shattering storm of her climax. Just when she thought she might live, she felt Jack enter her, then surge upwards. Her eyes shot open and she stared into his flushed face. His eyes were wild, his mouth twisted, the urgency of his own need very obvious.
When he lifted her up she automatically wrapped her legs around his hips, her hands letting go of her skirt so that she could wind her arms around his neck. Her dress fell down over them like a curtain. Not that what they were doing was subtle. Anyone walking by would have known instantly what was happening.
He groaned as he ground slowly into her, his hands kneading her buttocks at the same time.
But she didn’t want him slow. She wanted him hard. And fast.
‘Faster, Jack,’ she urged, squeezing him tightly with her insides.
‘Bloody hell, Vivienne,’ he muttered, taking a bruising grip of her hips before grinding into her with a power which took her breath away. He came almost as quickly as she had, shuddering into her, groaning his satisfaction. Vivienne didn’t mind that she was left still wanting. Jack’s pleasure was enough for her at the moment.
She began to shiver when he lowered her to the ground, the heat of the moment giving way to the chill of the night.
He shook his head at her. ‘We’re mad. You do know that, don’t you?’
‘Yes,’ she agreed shakily. ‘Quite mad.’
‘Anyone could have come.’
‘I didn’t care.’
‘I know. Neither did I. Come on, let’s get you into the warmth of the car. You’ll catch your death if we stay out here.’
‘Well, there’s one consolation,’ he added wryly, once they were under way with the heater going full blast.
‘What’s that?’ she asked somewhat dazedly. She was, quite frankly, still a little off the planet.
‘I had enough of a brain left to use a condom.’
‘Yes. Yes, I noticed that,’ she said. But only after he withdrew. She hadn’t during the act. She’d been off in another world. It was just as well she was on the pill. Being with Jack had made her uncharacteristically reckless. He wasn’t much better. They were mad, all right. Mad for each other. She almost told him then that she was on the pill because of course it would be better, not having to worry about protection all the time, especially if they were going to have spontaneous sex at any given moment. Which seemed on the cards. His desire for her was as strong as hers for him. But being on the pill only protected you against pregnancy, nothing else. She couldn’t see Jack as a man who took silly risks, but who knew?
‘What are you thinking about?’ he asked her when they stopped at a set of lights.
‘Nothing.’
‘Come now, Vivienne, I know you too well. Your mind is never empty.’
She stared down at the bag in her lap which was bulging from where she’d stuffed in her cotton panties. The tights, she’d left behind since they’d been ruined when Jack had ripped them off her. Finally, she looked up and over at him.
‘I was thinking I’m going to go out tomorrow and buy myself some seriously sexy underwear,’ she invented. ‘As long as you promise not to destroy it, that is.’
He smiled a wicked little smile. ‘Sorry. Can’t give you any guarantees on that. You bring out the beast in me.’
‘I do?’
‘You know you do.’
‘You bring out the same in me,’ she admitted. ‘I’m not usually like this, you know.’
‘What do you mean?’ he asked straight away.
Vivienne wished she hadn’t said that. For how could she tell him that she’d never before done a tenth of the things that she’d done with him? He probably wouldn’t believe her. Either that or he’d start asking her questions, questions she didn’t have answers for. She didn’t want to think about why she was so different with him. She just wanted to live in the moment. To say and do whatever she wanted with him. To be wild and wanton and, yes, even downright wicked.
She smiled a saucy smile. ‘I mean, I don’t usually have sex in car parks. But it was fun, wasn’t it?’
His smile was wry. ‘It wouldn’t have been fun if we’d been arrested.’
‘Can you get arrested for that?’
‘I would imagine so.’
