don’t need to hear it, Detective. We had sex…it was nice. Go and put that notch on your bed post and let’s just move on.”
Cole was on her in three strides. He grabbed her arms and pulled her closer to him, and she instantly stiffened. “It’s not like that,” he hissed, his gaze locking with and holding hers with an intensity that pulled the breath from her body. She swallowed hard and returned his gaze, refusing to break in front of him.
“You don’t have to lie to me, Cole. No harm…no foul.” As she said the words, she knew that they were a lie. “You don’t owe me anything.” She could have kicked herself right in the head as the words passed her lips. She knew that she shouldn’t have just fallen into bed with him. That wasn’t like her. She had only ever had one other lover, and she cringed when she remembered how that had turned out. No…men were definitely not in her cards. She had trust issues, and this whole fiasco only proved that they were justified. She felt like a complete idiot for believing that he might have cared for her just a little. She cringed slightly as the thought that he had merely pretended to believe her only to get her into bed slithered across her mind. How could she have been so stupid?

Cole was trembling with rage. Not at her, but at himself and Ben. He wanted to strangle the man for even insinuating that she was just a conquest. She was the furthest thing from that. He didn’t even understand it himself; he just knew that she was different. “It’s not like that,” he repeated softly, his eyes boring into hers. “ Not with you.” And, God help him, it was the truth. He had never cared before if he ever saw a woman again after he had bedded her. All he ever did was get his satisfaction and get the hell out. He had never even brought a woman to his home before. Had never cared to hold anyone, wake up next to her, or keep her safe…but, with Katherine…he cared. More than even he was willing to admit.
“Cole, please… just don’t. We’re not children. You don’t have to lie to me. I’ll be out of your way as soon as possible and then we can both move on with our lives. I appreciate everything that you’ve done, but you don’t have any obligation to me,” she stated, and in that next instant he had her across the room and pressed up against the wall, his mouth crashing down on hers with nothing less than desperation. His mouth ravaged hers with all the need that he felt. Need for her. Only her. She had gotten under his skin in a heartbeat, and he needed her to see that. He needed her to feel it. Feel it the way he did. He needed that more than anything.
He kissed her hard, his body pressing up against hers, his erection grinding against her belly, and he heard her moan, her body trembling against his so hard now that it reverberated right through his, right to his very bones. Christ!
Cole tore his mouth from hers and caught her gaze, heavily lidded with desire, and a shudder ran across him, threatening to knock him to his knees. “It’s not like that with you, Katherine,” he groaned, needing more than anything to make her see it, and his mouth came crashing down on hers once again.
He lifted her up and wrapped her legs around his hips, his mouth never leaving hers, and backed up, carrying her over to the bed. He laid them down onto the mattress, their bodies straining and tangling against the other’s, their mouths hungry…seeking. Their hands sliding over the other’s body in want and need. Desperate…raw.
He tore his shirt from her and tossed it across the room, his lips instantly covering the hardened peak of her breast and nipping. She cried out, raking her nails along his back, begging him for more.
Cole knew that there wasn’t going to be any foreplay, no taking his time. He needed her…now. Thanking God that she hadn’t put his boxers back on, he kicked off his pajama pants and stationed himself between her thighs, lifting her
