Henry wasn’t lying. Ten minutes after taking his pills, he was snoring on the couch. I sat in the recliner to the left, thumbing through a novel I’d read at least a dozen times. I turned the pages back and forth, trying to … Who was I kidding? The fact I was spending the night with my elderly, snoring friend—instead of April—was driving me insane. She’d only been up there for fifteen minutes. It was possible she wasn’t asleep yet.

I was right. A creak at the top of the stairs pulled my attention.

She stood still, biting her lip. I pushed myself off the couch and took the stairs without breaking eye contact with her. When I was close enough to hear the short, shallow breaths falling from her lips, I grasped her waist and pulled her against me. Her hot palms flattened on my chest, sliding over the muscle beneath my shirt to send ripples of pleasure through every inch of me. I nudged her nose gently with mine, but she tilted her head back, teasing me with a sly grin. Then her hands fisted in my shirt, and she pulled, urging me to take the final step. I moved quickly, lifting her before she could get further than arm’s-length away. Giggling softly, she wrapped her legs around my waist as I carried her toward the bedroom, my heart pounding.

After closing the door behind us, I trailed the back of my fingers along her jaw and down her neck, marveling at her smooth, porcelain skin in the moonlight. When she tipped her head back, I kissed the hollow of her throat before pressing my tongue to her skin. She made a soft, helpless sound and tightened her legs around me.

It was a good sign. A very good sign. I carried her to the bed and lowered her down. I squeezed my eyes closed, fighting off the insatiable need to ravage her. To my pleasant surprise she reversed our positions, rolling me onto my back so she could climb on top of me.

My mouth was suddenly dry. “What are we doing, exactly?”

Without answering, she unbuttoned my shirt. My skin prickled with goose bumps as she trailed her fingers over my chest, leaving hot, white flames in their wake.

My breathing faltered, then stopped altogether when she shuffled back and gasped softly at the feel of me between her thighs. Last night she’d been embarrassed at her unexpected reaction. Tonight, she welcomed it.

I more than welcomed it.

She bent down and closed her mouth over my nipple, while I slid my hand through her hair and swallowed hard as she planted hot, wet kisses across my chest.

“You’re sure no one can see through these windows?” she asked, breathlessly.

Somehow I managed to croak out, “Positive.”

With that, she slipped away. For a moment the only sound in the room was the beating of my heart. I sat up, and was about to ask where she’d gone, when the light came on. The sight of her made me ache: her hair falling to her waist, her cheeks glowing, her eyes filled with desire.
