JAYNE TOOK HIS HAND and led him into her bedroom. Light spilled in from the hall, leaving most of the room in shadow. While she didn’t usually insist on having sex in the dark, some lack of illumination seemed like a good idea. After all, David had been with some of the most beautiful women in the world. She, on the other hand, couldn’t remember the last time she’d done a sit-up.

He reached for her, then paused. “Tell me you have condoms.”

“You don’t travel prepared?”

“Not as a rule.”

“I have condoms.”

An unopened box of three in her nightstand.

He reached for her again, then they were kissing and his hands were moving over her body. He touched her back, her side, then slid his fingers up to her breasts. He cupped her curves, then teased her tight nipples.

Pleasure flooded her. He kissed his way down her neck, then pulled off her sweater and took advantage of the exposed skin. He was attentive, determined, and patient, easing her out of her clothes with an expertise that left her breathless. Then he was naked, too, and they were on the bed.

He kissed his way down her body, lingering at her breasts, before dipping between her legs to lick her into surrender. She was still gasping when he entered her, all hard and thick. Rather than get lost in what he was doing, she found herself watching his face as he thrust into her. His features tightened as he got closer. She felt and saw the exact moment he came and knew she would never get tired of the view. Even if this ended badly, she would always have the memories of tonight.

She pulled up the sheet as he retreated to clean up in the bathroom. When he returned, she started to sit up. No way she was going to miss the show of his getting dressed. But instead of reaching for his clothes, he slid into bed next to her and propped his head up on his hand.

“That wasn’t dinner, was it?” he asked. “I’m thinking Chinese. Is there a place that delivers close by? Or we could go out if you want.”

“You’re hungry?”

He grinned. “Aren’t you?”

“Yes, but…” Nothing about this made sense. “Aren’t you leaving?”

“Do you want me to?”

“No, but…”

“Yes, but. No, but. Jayne, you’re going to have to pick a direction.”

She would have put money on his being the type to do the deed and then run.

“Hey.” He touched her cheek. “I can go if you want. I’d prefer to stay. We can have dinner, watch a movie, then use up the rest of the box of condoms. I know how you hate anything to go to waste.”

“I’m big on recycling,” she said, confused and happy at the same time. David wanted to spend the night. With her. Here.

Sure, it was emotionally dangerous—but she’d already gone this far. She leaned in and kissed him.

“I know a great Chinese place, and they deliver. You don’t even have to get dressed.”

He kissed her back, then pulled her close.
