I took in a breath, let it out and nodded.
“In the meantime, we keep doin’ what we’re doin’,” Chace went on.
I nodded again.
“Now, you gonna read or sleep?”
This meant, I assumed, Chace was tired. Then again, it was past his bedtime.
“Read,” I told him quietly and he grinned at me.
Then he bent his head and kissed me, one of his sweet, soft ones, open mouth, lazy stroke of the tongue. My toes curled, both my arms went around him and the fingers of both hands went into his hair.
When he ended the kiss, his lips didn’t leave mine and he murmured there, “Read.”
“Okay,” I murmured back.
He lifted up, kissed my nose and moved a hint away.
I rolled to my side of the bed and grabbed my Nook.
Chace’s light went off.
I turned on my Nook and read. An hour later, I turned it off, set it on my nightstand and turned out my light.
I barely settled into bed before I was hauled into and mostly under Chace with his arm at my waist.
“Done?” he mumbled sleepily.
“Yeah.”
“’Night, baby.”
“’Night, Chace.”
His arm gave me a squeeze.
I snuggled into him.
His weight settled into me.
I closed my eyes and went to sleep.

Ten oh seven at night, three days later
“Chace.”
“Fuck, baby.”
“Chace!”
“Give me that mouth.”
I gave him my mouth. Half a second later I moaned my orgasm into his.
When I was done doing that, his hand cupping my head shoved my face in his neck and he kept powering up.
I was back to his headboard, my legs around him holding tight, my arms around his shoulders doing the same. He was on his knees, his hand was at my behind holding me up and his other hand was in my hair, his arm holding me close.
And he was powering deep, his hips driving up, slamming into me.
Seriously, sex… was… awesome.
One of my arms left his shoulders so my hand could drift down his back to his behind and clench in so I could feel the muscles there working.
Sublime.
“Jesus, fuck,” he growled into the skin of my neck through grunts.
I was learning to recognize the signs. He was getting close.
I held on tighter.
“Jesus, fuck, so fuckin’ tight, tight and sweet,” he was groaning now through his grunts.
I loved that. So much, I ran my tongue up his neck.
He powered up harder, hips bucking, hand clenching my booty, other hand fisting in my hair and I heard as well as felt his deep, guttural groan against my skin.
Yeah. Seriously.
Sex… was… awesome.
His breathing settled and his hand let my hair go to slide down and curl around the back of my neck.
I held on tight and didn’t move a muscle.
“Town’s pretty, cute, sweet librarian wears sexy as all fuck underwear, sexier nighties and gets off on getting banged, back against the headboard.”
I blinked into his skin.
“What?”
Chace didn’t repeat himself.
Instead, he asked, “How long after I planted you against the headboard did it take you to come, baby? A second?”
I pulled my head back to stare at him.
He pulled his back to grin at me.
“Are you teasing me?” I asked, uncertain how I felt about this.
“Yeah,” he answered. “Though, I will point out, I’m teasin’ you but it’s the God’s honest truth. Got you up there, you went wild.”
I felt my eyes narrow and I snapped, “Well, it was hot.”
“Yeah it was. Got hotter when you went wild for that whole second before you came.”
I kept snapping but the only thing I could get out was, “Chace!”
“It’s true.”
“It wasn’t a second.”
“A second and a half,” he amended, slightly.
“It wasn’t a second and a half!” My voice was rising.
“That’s not true. Totally a second and a half, no more.”
“I’m uncertain how I feel about you teasing me when I’m naked,” I shot back.
His smile turned wicked. “Naked, seriously fuckin’ wet with my cock still inside you, you mean.”
I felt my cheeks heat, I looked over his shoulder and muttered, “Whatever.”
“Jesus, wettest I’ve ever had along with the tightest,” he went on and my eyes cut back to him.
“Chace!”
He pressed me into the headboard, his face got close, his smile died and his eyes went intense. “What you got to give, Faye, here,” his hips pressed into mine, “clean, pure, all fuckin’ mine and that’s beautiful right there. But the rest, how wet you get, how tight you are, you goin’ wild for me like you did just now, baby. Fuck. You gotta know, coupled with the other, that’s beauty that’s off the charts.”
Hmm. I liked that.
A frak of a lot.
I bit my lip.
His eyes dropped to my mouth and his grin came back.
Then I was on my back in the bed with him on me, giving orders. “Gonna let you go. You’re gonna go clean up, come back and round two.”
My eyebrows shot up.
Round two?
We’d never gone a second round.
“Seriously?”
“Not on-duty tomorrow,” he reminded me.
