Chapter Ten

The smart move would have been to resist.

Cody went with his gut.

Drawing J.J. against him, he dropped his head, finding her mouth as his palms laced through her hair and gripped her head.

As his tongue slipped into her mouth, she stepped closer still, flattening herself against him. His body was a tight coil of need as he enjoyed the taste and feel of her. He’d wanted this for what seemed like forever, and the reality exceeded his expectations.

She smelled of fresh air and the subtle fragrance of lavender that clung to her hair. She tasted of the coffee she’d drunk in his family’s kitchen, and of desire strong enough to melt the hardest resolve. He couldn’t get close enough. He loved the sensations she inspired. On the other hand, he hated the layers of clothing preventing him from experiencing her completely, but was grateful for them at the same time. They reminded him that kissing her was his only option. For now.

J.J. surprised him when she took his hand and flattened it against the swell of her breast. He wasn’t sure if he moaned or she did. Probably both. He flicked his thumb across the pebble-hardness of one nipple. Her response was a deliberate brush of her hips against his. His body strained against his jeans. His head was swimming. It was erotic to know that she wanted him as much as he wanted her. As frustrating as it was, knowing they couldn’t satisfy their desire for each other only seemed to enhance the experience.

His breath caught when her hand slipped beneath his waistband. Anticipation gripped him as her fingertips reached within a hair of his erection. He felt her smile against his mouth as her fingers slipped lower. Too much, his mind screamed. His system was already on overload, despite the fact that they were standing, fully clothed, and they both knew nothing could come of this. Not today.

All rational thought fled as J.J.’s fingers closed around him. This time, he knew the groan was his own. Just as he was sure he was on the verge of something that hadn’t happened since high school. He needed to get a grip. Hard to do with her rubbing him while her tongue slowly, teasingly explored his mouth. When her fingers tightened as she sucked on his bottom lip, Cody knew he was a goner. He tried to struggle against his body’s reaction, but every nerve and tendon torqued with sweet, intense sensation. He had to—

Had to—

Not wanting her to feel the spasms coursing though him, Cody grit his teeth and gently pushed her away, resting his forehead against hers as he tried to regain his control.

It took him longer than he’d thought it would, but when his breathing eventually returned to normal, he peered down at her. Lifting his fingertip to her jaw, he asked, “Do I thank you or apologize?”

Getting up on tiptoe, she kissed his cheek and answered, “Neither. You just owe me one.”

Wrapping her in his arms, he laughed softly and kissed her head.
