the other wrist and showed no signs of being willing to release his hold.
Jenna let her roaming hand find its way down and across a flat stomach, and then even further, exploring new territory. She was barely able to refrain from touching what she wanted to explore, but knew it would destroy his ability to talk on the phone. Seth was already breathing hard. It made her giggle. She wanted to tease him and ask him if he always became short of breath when he spoke Japanese. But that was too friendly a comment to make, and she wouldn’t want him to think she was jealous or cared about his business.
Seth watched Jenna exploring his body, and then heard her wicked giggle. He would definitely never take a phone call on the way to bed with her again. There was no cutting short the cultural courtesies that were expected in the call. But damn it, Seth thought, sighing at the heaven her hands were on his body. He wanted her. A ragged sigh spoke volumes about the twisted emotional state Seth was in.
Jenna understood. With her hands on him, she was so tuned to Seth, that she knew instantly when she had pushed him to the edge of their teasing. Tugging Seth by the wrist he still held of hers, Jenna pulled him down to the couch, and did what she hoped would ease the situation slightly for both of them. She crawled into his lap and put her face against his throat while he talked. Seth let go of her wrist to put his arm around her and hold her close.
Stupid , Seth thought.So stupid that he had not been intimate with this woman before .
He had been so very, very stupid to not celebrate all the passion between them.
Some twenty minutes later Seth hung up the phone only to find that Jenna was fast asleep in his arms. Evidently, he hadn’t been the only one not sleeping. He wrapped his other arm around her and turned them both until they were lying together on his thankfully large couch.
Jenna wouldn’t like this, Seth thought, enjoying the sensation of holding her sleeping body. She also wouldn’t like knowing that Seth wanted this intimacy as much as he wanted to be inside her. Lust still was on him, but love for her had him cradling Jenna in his arms and sighing in contentment.
Seth couldn’t believe that a mere hour ago he thought he’d never speak to her again, and now he held her. He loved Jenna Ranger, would probably always love her.
It was the last conscious thought Seth had before he fell peacefully asleep as well, relieved to have Jenna in his arms at last.
When Seth woke at ten that evening, it was to find he was alone on the couch. The loneliness without her returned in a rush. Then he saw the note under the phone.
Glad we worked out a deal. See you tomorrow night at nine. J.
Not great, Seth thought, wishing Jenna was still sleeping beside him, or better yet waking up to find him inside her as he would have been if she had stayed. But he’d let tomorrow at nine be good enough. At least Jenna was in his life again.
When it came to something this important, Seth would find a way to be a very a patient man.
Chapter 7
At eight forty-five the next night, shaved and completely ready for the woman coming through the door in fifteen minutes, Seth paced his living room watching the clock. At eight forty-seven the doorbell rang and he all but ripped the knob off opening it.
Jenna stood there smiling and nervous with an apologetic look on her face.
“I’m a little early,” she said, clearing her throat and fighting not to blush.
“Early is good,” Seth replied hoarsely. Then he grabbed Jenna’s wrist, dragged her across the threshold, and slammed the door behind her before crushing her against it. The purse and sweater she carried fell to the floor unheeded. Seth didn’t let their bodies follow even though he badly wanted to do so.
“Put your arms around my neck,” Seth ordered, lifting her by the hips when she did as he asked. He groaned at the pleasure of having her in his arms for real and lifted her legs
