Chapter 7

Erin awoke the next morning before Jesse. He still lay beside her, breathing heavily with his arm rested against her hip. Nothing had ever felt more perfect.

He’d whispered words of love to her during the night as he brought her to release once more. She didn’t want to become optimistic, yet she couldn’t help thinking that maybe he wanted to turn their weekend of sex into something more. Maybe he’d had enough of the city. She knew he didn’t want to go back to farming but with the opening of her catering business, he could be pondering new opportunities locally. He could always find a job in a restaurant in Albury. The forty minute commute would probably be around the same as what he had in Sydney.

She smiled at the possibilities. They could buy a cheap house, far cheaper than anything available in the city, and settle down. The image of a little boy with the devilish good looks of Jesse made tears well in her eyes.

Trying to remind herself not to become too excited, she inched off the bed, careful not to wake him. As she washed the evidence of their lovemaking off in the shower, she let her hand drift over the tender spots on her skin. Her neck ached below her ear and there was sure to be a bright red hickey. Her breasts and the folds of her sex were also tender from his exquisite ministrations.

“Need a hand?”

She startled at the sound and clutched at her heart. Jesse was leaning against the doorway in nothing but boxer shorts. His arms were folded across his muscular chest as his greedy gaze ran down her body.

“You scared the shit outta me!”

An unrepentant smirk tilted his lips so she slid across the door and flicked water at him. His growl reverberated through the small bathroom. In an instant she was up against the tile wall, his heavy frame leaning into her while his boxers became soaked from the shower spray.

He kissed her hard, pulling her hips close with unyielding strength. His erection ground against her clit and her body tensed from the bite of pain.

She broke away from his lips and leaned against the cold tile with a wince. “Jess, I’m sore.”

His peered down at her with a frown. “I hurt you?”

“No,” she shook her head, “it’s just…my body isn’t used to so much attention.”

His face brightened with a smile and he brushed her forehead with his mouth. “I’m glad to hear it,” his expression sobered as he leaned back, “but I’m still sorry I hurt you.”

Erin lifted her hands to cup his beautiful face. “I assure you it didn’t hurt at the time.”

He stroked a wet lock of hair from her neck. “Let me clean you.”

She wanted to sigh at his perfection, at the way his eyes spoke of ownership and protection. Instead she handed him the soap and moaned when his lathered hand glided over her breasts and down her stomach.

“I could get used to this,” she murmured, clenching her thighs together to ward off her arousal.
