Gibson --"
" Quit arguing and start driving. You remember how to get here? "
" Yes, I think so. "
" Good girl. Call me back if you need directions. "
" Okay. "
He could hear the relief in her voice.
" Julie. "
" Yeah? "
" Be careful, babe. "
****
An hour later, Julie finally pulled into Gibson ' s driveway. It should have only taken her forty minutes tops and he was about to go ballistic. Why the hell was she late? His nerves had been crucified waiting for her.
He stood in the driveway and opened her door when she stopped. " You okay? "
" Yeah. "
" Come on, let ' s get you inside. "
Julie grabbed her purse, locked her car and followed him into the house. It was as beautiful as she had imagined it. Had someone decorated it for him? Some woman? A feeling of jealousy for the unknown woman slid through her. She wanted to be the one to take care of him. Fat chance . She couldn ' t even cook him a decent meal.
Gibson led her through the house and picked up her bag and tossed it in a chair. He took her by the shoulders and gripped her upper arms. " You okay? "
She sucked in a huge breath of air and slowly exhaled. " Yeah. " Julie ' s eyes drank him all the way in. He was tall and hard and dark, and he was making her legs quake, just like he always did. He had on a tight, ripped t-shirt and faded jeans. His feet were bare. God, he even had sexy feet.
Gibson held her in the circle of his arms while her scent invaded his senses. Arousal hit him hard, low in the gut. " I ' m glad you called me. "
Her eyes were luminous as she watched him. " I don ' t -- I don ' t know why I did. "
" Yeah, you do. "
Silence met his words.
Their eyes tangled as desire, sharp and hot flowed between them. Her body trembled under his hands.
Julie ' s soft skin felt perfect under his touch. He hadn ' t seen her or heard from her in eight long days and this just felt right. The rest of the world began to blur. His mind focused on Julie. His body focused on Julie. Nothing else mattered. He couldn ' t seem to comprehend why anything or anybody else should matter. He absolutely couldn ' t bring himself to give a fuck. This was about her .
A low sound vibrated from deep in his diaphragm as he lowered his head to hers. " Fuck Ryan. He ' s on his own. "
Julie sucked in a breath as Gibson ' s mouth closed over hers. For the space of a second, the memory of the brutal, punishing kiss he had given her invaded her brain and she steeled her body against his. But almost immediately, she sensed this kiss was different and languor washed through her as she leaned in against him.
Her mind splintered as pleasure inundated her entire being. Oh, God, yes! This was it! This was the kind of kiss she wanted, the kind of kiss she needed from him. Her hands crawled up his chest and wrapped around his neck as she gave herself up to him. His scent washed over her and her breath got caught in her lungs as she felt herself trembling. She ' d wanted this for so long! The things he made her feel were so strong, so absolute. Nothing had ever compared to it before.
Her mind shut down as she felt a rush to her head and anticipation curled through her stomach.
Gibson ' s body hardened and ferocious need lacerated his guts as he felt Julie melt against him. She was his for the taking! And he wasn ' t going to waste another second trying to be noble. He wanted her. He needed her naked against him. In his bed. Now.
Julie felt her head swim as her feet came off the floor and Gibson lifted her and turned all in one sudden movement. His mouth broke away from hers and he began walking from the room, carrying her in his arms as if she weighed nothing. Arousal and need flowed through her. As he pushed through the doorway into a darkened bedroom, he dropped her to her knees on the bed. Her hands slid down to his chest.
" You know how long I ' ve wanted you here? In my house, in my bed? " His voice was low, coming from his chest in a deep rumble.
She shook her head and
