The way this man could drive her wild with the simplest of touches was amazing. She whispered his name, begging him for more. And that’s when his hand found that slit in her dress that stopped just shy of being indecent.
She’d put nothing on beneath when she tried the dress on, always eager to give him easy access.
“I take it you like my new dress,” she murmured.
His hand found her core, and Kelly stepped wide to allow his touch to work over her.
“I’d love you out of it even more,” he muttered against her skin.
She gripped the material below her breasts and shoved the stretchy dress down her body. Luke only released her for a moment to get the garment out of the way before he was back on her.
“I need you now,” he told her, lifting her to toss her onto the bed.
Kelly laughed once again, because the man went from erotic to playful so fast, she couldn’t keep up. Always keeping her on her toes and wanting more.
He climbed onto the bed and rested a hand on each side of her head.
“I want you,” he repeated. “Without a barrier.”
His words sunk in and that’s when she knew he cared for her more than she thought. He wouldn’t want to be this intimate if this was just a casual fling.
Kelly eased her legs apart to accommodate his large frame. “I’m clean and protected without anything.”
That jaw muscle clenched as his nostrils flared. He was hanging on by a thread. She could read him so easily now.
With this knowledge, Kelly locked her ankles behind his back and urged him closer to where she so desperately wanted him to be.
Once he sank into her, she couldn’t help but cry out. Every time they were together she wanted more. She wanted to consume him and never stop loving him, both physically and mentally.
She did love Luke. There was no denying the facts and, quite possibly, she’d loved him for a long time.
But now she could admit it to herself and not be worried or afraid. Because she had a feeling he might be falling, too.
“You’re so damn perfect.”
Those whispered words falling from his lips only heightened her arousal. He was everything to her and she wished she could tell him she loved him.
But she had to wait. There was no way she could pour her heart out to him this soon. He might not believe her and she didn’t want to scare him off or confuse him. There was too much going on in his life with his family and the company. Adding to his stress would get them nowhere.
His body rocked harder, faster, his lips seemed to travel everywhere. He covered her face, her neck, back down to her chest, where she instinctively arched to his mouth. Her legs tightened even more around his waist and, with all of the pleasure points being hit at the same time, Kelly lost control and fell over the edge.
Luke followed her, ravaging her mouth as he went, and Kelly kissed him back, hoping her passion and love would come through without saying a word. She needed him to know just how special he was to her and just how much she wanted to be with him.
As they lay in his bed in the silence of the aftermath, Kelly wondered how long she could hold out before confessing that she’d fallen in love with her boss.
Fifteen
The flight back proved to be business as usual. Kelly tried not to take offense. They were, after all, away from the resort and the fantasy they’d been living for five days.
Luke sat across from her on his phone sending emails, then talking, then sending more emails. She had her laptop, but it remained closed at her side. The only reason she’d brought it to begin with was to keep up the ruse that they were meeting with an investor.
She wasn’t in the mood now, though she knew there would be plenty of emails and work she could get done. Nothing needed her attention until Monday. She planned on taking tomorrow off and trying to transition from exotic island to Royal, Texas.
“This is going to be amazing,” Luke exclaimed, setting his phone at his side. “I need you to take some notes.”
Kelly pulled up her phone and sighed. Yup, they were definitely back to business as usual.
“We’re going to throw a lavish party,” he started. “We’re going to have it at the Clubhouse and this needs to be bigger and better than anything we’ve ever done.”
