Chapter Fifteen

John was awake long before the phone rang. He’d slept for a couple of hours, wrapped around Ava’s long limbs. It was the kind of sleep he’d been needing—deep and dreamless. But soon his body had woken him, stirring and wanting more of her. It had always been like that with Ava. In college, when they’d been together, the sex was so much more than it had been with other women.

And right now, he not only wanted her, he wanted to be with her. He wanted to go back in time and have a chance at a real life with her. A chance to wake up with her again and again. To put the smile on her face she’d given him at dinnertime before she invited him home.

And the kind of smile she gave him when she thought something was ironic. And the kind of smile she gave him when she had thought of a funny joke or memory. And the one where she talked about her father and sister. He wanted all of that.

He amputated that thought line, carving it out of his mind before it could take hold. It wasn’t a place he could go. Wanting like that wasn’t a good idea for a man like him.

He had just moved on to thinking about waking Ava with his mouth and focusing on the things a man like him could have in his life, when the phone rang.

Ava looked up at him with sleepy eyes, and he couldn’t honestly say he regretted the night in any way. She was warm and soft curled against him. Damn, that softness was doing all kinds of things to make him hard. She ran her hand over his chest and he went rock hard, giving serious thought to ignoring the phone in favor of Ava.

He wanted to bury himself in her, knowing he would find such ecstasy there. Nothing but pleasure, intense and aching and sweet as hell. Christ, he wanted inside her.

“Shouldn’t you get that?” The laughter in her voice said she knew damned well what he was thinking.

He growled a response as he leaned over her and lifted the cell, swiping it to answer before he placed it to his ear. As soon as he had it situated between his ear and shoulder, he ran a hand up Ava’s body, from the gentle curve of her thigh to her waist. He let his hand settle there, working his thumb in a circle, drawing a wriggle from her.

“Sevier,” he said, knowing full well he was likely going to have to leave any minute. A phone call in the middle of the night meant he was being called to a scene.

He listened for a few seconds before rolling off the bed with a curse. He couldn’t delay on this one no matter how tempting Ava was. Their jewelry store robberies had started up again. And this time, there were no survivors.
