Sweet Dreams (Colorado #2)

“You opened it?” Tate asked and I was too overwrought by the latest scene to let his tone penetrate.

“You…” I swung an arm out indicating in its wide sweep the nightstand, “left your keycard. I thought it was you.”

Tate lifted up a hand and between two fingers was a keycard. Then he flicked his hand and the keycard went sailing. I watched it slice through the air and then flutter to the floor.

“Two of us in this room, Ace, two keycards,” he said and my eyes went to him. When they did, he jerked his hand, finger extended to the door. “Know what this is?”

“A door?” I asked stupidly.

“A peephole,” he bit back then moved his hand to flick the security latch closed. “Know what that is?”

“Captain –”

He advanced and the aggressive way he did it made me retreat. It was dawning on me he was pissed and he wasn’t pissed at Brad. He was pissed at me.

I stopped when my legs hit the chair to the desk. He stopped when he was in my space. I tilted my head way back to look at him.

“You got great hair, babe.”

“Tate –”

“Thick.”

“Tate –”

“Soft.”

“Tate,” I whispered.

“Shame it gets hacked off with a knife after some guy rapes you with that knife!” He finished on a roar.

My body jolted.

“Tate!”

“There’s bad guys out there, Ace. Bad. Do things to you that’ll make you glad you end up dead. You don’t open a goddamned door not knowin’ who’s behind it.”

“I thought it was you.”

“Well it wasn’t.”

“Tate –”

“He fuck you?” Tate asked suddenly and my head jerked again.

“Brad?” I asked back, confused.

Tate leaned in and bellowed, “Wood!”

“No!” I shouted back.

Then I was flying through the air. Literally flying through the air. I bounced once on the bed and then Tate was on top of me. He was wet, he was sweaty and his weight felt great. His mouth on mine, his tongue in my mouth felt even better.

I didn’t know what got into me. I simply ignited, all thoughts left my mind and I kissed him back, wanting, desperate, wild.

I put my hands in his shirt, shoving it up and his arms lifted, his hands going between his shoulder blades and he yanked his shirt over his head and tossed it away. I pushed off on a foot and rolled him, getting on top. I kissed him then my mouth slid through his beard, down his jaw, his neck, all the while my hands moved on him, discovering. I saw the tattoo that painted his shoulder, going up and over, down his arm and slithering down his chest. I was too into what I was doing to see what it was but I followed it and kept going until my mouth hit his nipple. Once there, I flicked it with my tongue then I sucked it between my lips.

Half a second later I was on my back and my t-shirt was going up. I lifted my arms and it was gone. Then Tate’s hand slid into my panties, right in, and I felt one of his long fingers fill me as his mouth latched onto my nipple and pulled it deep.

That felt so good, my back left the bed, arching straight into the air. My fingers slid into his damp hair and I moaned, “Tate.”

His finger slid out of me and hit the spot. His mouth sucked deeper and his finger moved and it hit me, it was coming, I knew it.

“Tate.” It was a whimper.

I lost both his mouth and hand and my eyes flew open.

“Not without me,” he growled and he was moving.

His hands grasped my panties at either side of my hips and tugged down. When they were gone and I felt Tate leave the bed, I got up on my elbows to see him standing at its foot. He pulled down his shorts and I saw all of him and all of it was equally beautiful in a way that knocked my ragged breath right out of me.

And all of him was hard.

He grabbed my calves and yanked them apart, then pushed them up so my knees were bent. He put a knee to the bed and moved forward, releasing one of my calves, his hand wrapped around his cock and I felt his weight begin to hit me.

“You come with me inside you, Ace,” he gritted and then he was inside me, filling me, beautiful.

At the feel of him, so hard, making me so full, my back left the bed again. “Tate.”

He moved, driving deep, fast, hard. Our mouths attached, our tongues clashed. His hand went between us and he touched me and that was it. It hit me like a rocket and I combusted, my world exploding, taking me with it and I loved every nanosecond.

I tore my mouth from his and moaned, “Tate.”

“That’s my girl,” he murmured, still moving inside me.

I came down from the orgasm he gave me to feel his hands had spanned my hips, pulling them up to meet his thrusts and I still needed him. My legs wrapped around his hips and my hands roamed, my mouth trailed, my tongue tasted. Everywhere I could touch, everything I could reach. His sweat tasted great to me, his skin even better, the muscles under his sleek, slick skin felt amazing.

His hand left my hip, came between us again and my hips jerked.

“Honey –” I whispered against his lips.

“Hurry, baby, I’m close.”

“I don’t think I can –”
