nervous glance at the slider she licked her bottom lip, her body
relaxing minutely. “It’s good to see you.”
Inwardly
he sighed, his tiger calming down a fraction. He could tell she was wound a
little tight, but took her talking and not yelling as a good sign. “It’s good
to see you too. I’ll admit though that I didn’t expect to see you again this soon.”
“Sorry.
That’s my fault actually. Sam was talking about you and I said he should invite
you over.” She dipped her head down taking great interest in the floor. “You
didn’t have to accept though if you didn’t want to come back here. I would
understand if you didn’t want to see me.”
Jett’s
body was in motion. She looked defeated and vulnerable. He snatched up the
steaks that were sitting on the counter next to him and walked up to her, crowding
her in against the counter. Electric currents shot through his body on contact.
Taking a deep breath he pulled in as much of her essence as he could, his eyes
rolling to the back of his head in sheer bliss.
He
dipped his head placing his lips next to her ear. “Of course I wanted to see
you. I couldn’t get you off my mind. I’m sorry about last night.”
Her
head shot up, emotions he couldn’t read fast enough passing over her face.
“Before
you even say anything silly, I’m not sorry about the sex. I’m sorry I reacted
so poorly to the news of your brother.” Unable to resist, he traced the shell
of her ear with his tongue. A gasp escaped her glossy pink lips, the sound
sending heat straight through his veins. Arousal stirred in his gut as his
dick, which had been getting harder by the second ever since he saw her again,
twitched behind the zipper of his shorts.
“Did
you miss me kitten? Lord knows I missed you.”
The
quake of her body as he spoke was all the answer he needed.
He
checked to see where Sam was. When he didn’t see him, he knew they were safe
for now. Quickly he brushed his lips against her ear before moving down the
column of her neck. Sucking on the sweet spot where neck and shoulder met. The
spot he bit last night.
Corrine’s cool hand wrapped around the back of his
neck, holding him in place. “Oh,
god,” she moaned.
Jett
pulled away, licking the tortured skin before pulling back and forcing her to
drop her hand. Studying her face, her eyes were closed and mouth open slightly,
delight and arousal clearly stamped across every feature.
He
was satisfied with that reaction. “I think you did miss me.” With the steaks
still in his hand he stepped back and walked away. Needing to escape before he
let go and took her on the counter, regardless of where her brother was and
what he would do to him. At the slider he looked back at her. “You might want
to let your hair down and cover that spot on your neck.”
She
blinked a couple of times before speaking. “You might want to brush the flour
off your neck.” Pushing off the counter she walked out of the room as if the
hounds of Hell were on her feet.
Jett
pushed open the door, whistling as he walked out into the sun. It looked like
it was going to be a great day after all.
CHAPTER SIX
Corrine didn’t know whether to be pissed that Jett
was here and it was her own damn fault or that he’d revved her up so quickly by
doing so little then left completely unaffected. Damn man!
She
was really doing her best not to melt into a puddle of goo once she realized he
was there. That was one of the blessings about baking. She could forget
everyone and everything. The world could crash down around her and, as long as
her kitchen was intact and delicious treats were in the oven, she would never
know.
She
thought she was prepared to see him again except when she turned around and he
was standing right there, she freaked and screamed like a girl. Okay, granted
she was a girl but she didn’t need to act like a silly one.
Taking
her shock and frustration out on her brother did feel good though. So did the
