Jesus, her mouth. I knew it would be addictive. Despite the snappy words, the constant denials, and her bitter tone at times, I knew she’d be sweet. The perfect aphrodisiac.
She whimpered as I slid my tongue along hers. Clutched at my neck as the kiss deepened, our tongues exploring, lips devouring, and taste buds on overdrive.
I groaned as she tugged on my hair. Bent and lifted her into my arms, backing her into the wall. She wrapped her legs around me, biting at my lips. Begged me silently for more.
Which I was happy to give her.
It didn’t matter we were in a bar. In a hallway. That her daughter and my coworker were around. All that mattered was she’d finally given in. Finally let me touch her. Kiss her.
And now, I wanted more.
I pulled back, meeting her dazed eyes. “I’m taking you home, Cherry G.”
She pulled my face back to hers. “Tell me what you’re going to do to me,” she begged in a quiet whisper.
“I’m going to fuck you. Claim you. Make love to you. I’m going to take you hard. Then slow. Then both. I’m going to ruin you for anyone else.” I pressed my forehead to hers. “Tell me that I can.”
“Yes. Oh God, yes.”
“And it’s not only going to be tonight,” I promised. “Once we do this, you’re mine. You understand me? I don’t share. Ever. And especially you.”
She rolled her hips into me, and I fisted her hair, kissing her again. “Patience, pretty lady. You do that again, and all bets are off. We need to get somewhere private. I want to take my time with you.”
“Take me home, Dom. Please.”
A slow grin pulled at my lips. “You said Dom.” I kissed her hard. “You’ll be screaming it soon.”
I lowered her feet to the floor, holding her until she was steady. I smoothed her hair back, smiling down at her. “You’re a mess.”
“So are you.”
“Do you care?”
“No.”
I took her lips again. “We’re heading right out. Okay?”
“Yes.” She cleared her throat. “We have to try to act natural around Hannah. I don’t want her to think—”
I covered her mouth with mine again. “Too late, lady. She’s gonna know.”
Then I tugged her behind me, heading to the table. Chase and Hannah were staring at us, Hannah’s eyes wide with shock as she took in her mother’s disheveled appearance. I wasn’t trying to hide my erection either. I couldn’t.
I stopped at the table, grabbing Cherry’s purse and my jacket. “We’re going for coffee,” I said, my voice deep and rough. I looked at Hannah. “Don’t wait up.”
Cherry looked at her daughter, wide-eyed and blushing. “Just coffee,” she called over her shoulder. “I’ll be home soon.”
I laughed loudly. “Don’t count on it!” I yelled back.
She’d be lucky if I let her go at all.
