Zack (Armed and Dangerous Book 1) (28 page)

She moaned as the button finally came undone and she fumbled for the zipper’s tab. “Don’t play around, baby. I can’t wait.”

Zack pushed her hands away from his zipper, then palmed her breasts and squeezed her nipples. “Not yet. Your nipples are in the perfect place for me to taste.”

Whimpers and more moans rose from her throat as he nuzzled and licked and sucked her breasts. She tilted her head back while holding on to his shoulders, bracing herself as she squirmed from the feel of his tongue on her.

He thrust one of his fingers inside her while rubbing her clit with his thumb. She gasped and cried out, and dug her fingers into his shoulders.

When she couldn’t take his erotic teasing another moment, she almost sobbed as she clenched her fingers in his hair and begged him, “Please, Zack.”

She let his hair slip through her fingers as he unzipped his jeans and her mouth watered as she saw his huge erection. She was vaguely aware of being relieved that he had a condom in his jeans pocket.

Thank God he didn’t wait, as he lifted her hips and positioned his cock at her center. Her cry of pleasure echoed through the kitchen as he thrust himself inside so deep she felt it nearly to her belly button.

Sky grasped Zack’s shoulders, digging her nails even more into his muscles and taking him deep as his lips, teeth, and tongue found one of her nipples again. She wrapped her legs around his hips and bucked at a frenzied pace and Zack clenched her to him.

As Sky arched her back, her hair slid against her naked shoulders, an erotic combination with Zack’s warm mouth on her breasts as he drove in and out of her.

The orgasm building inside made her head spin. He was so big, he fit inside her so perfectly and touched every sensitive spot inside her. The sensations inside her raged like nothing she’d ever felt before.

When it hit, her climax was so massive that a loud cry tore from her throat. The spinning in her head increased and her core spasmed around his cock at the same time he continued his hard thrusts.

Zack shouted as he came, and somewhere from the height of her climax Sky felt him pulsating deep within her even when he stopped moving in and out.

She collapsed against him, and they held on to each other, their sweat mingling, their breathing heavy, their hearts pounding.

Sated by their lovemaking, Sky allowed herself to enjoy the comfort of Zack’s embrace. His earthy presence surrounded her. Filled her.

Zack leaned back and traced one finger over a hardened nipple. “Cold?”

“Not with you to warm me,” Sky murmured in a teasing tone.

The look in his eyes was suddenly too serious and a strange fear gripped her.

Grasping a lock of her hair, he wrapped it around his hand. “I love you, Sky.” He took a deep breath, an uncertain look on his handsome face. “Marry me.”

For countless seconds Sky stared at Zack as he looked at her. His dark hair was mussed, his face unshaven, his masculine body large and imposing, his gray eyes stormy.

“When I left ten years ago I knew I’d made the biggest mistake of my life.” Zack’s gray eyes focused intently on her. “I love you. I’ve never stopped loving you. Say you’ll marry me and I’ll do whatever I can to make up for all the time we’ve lost.”

For a long moment she couldn’t say anything and her eyes burned with tears that wanted to come out of nowhere.

“You bastard.” She flung her arms around his neck and buried her face against his chest. “I love you so much.”

He pulled away from her and smiled that killer, devastating, elusive smile of his. “Is that a yes?”

“A most definite yes.” Sky stroked the scar along his cheek. “And I’m not waiting another minute. We can fly to Vegas tomorrow. I don’t want to give you a chance to change your mind.”

“There’s no danger of that.” He kissed her long and slow, then murmured, “Why wait that long? We can catch a flight tonight.”

“I’ll hold you to that.” She was so full of love and happiness that she thought she’d explode. “We’ll start packing, just as soon as you finish making love to me again.”

He smiled and slid between her thighs. “I love you, Sky MacKenna.”

She gave him her most mischievous grin as she brought him inside her. “You’d better, Zack Hunter. You’d better.”

“Lawmen” series

By Cheyenne McCray

Almost absently, he rubbed his thumb along Tori’s delicate jawline while they both remained quiet. He liked the way she fit in his arms. It felt…right.

It was the right time to tell her about what happened with Brian. Landon knew he should do it now.

And then every good intention vanished as she tipped her face up to look at him. Her eyelashes glittered from the remainder of her tears and her brown eyes seemed even darker than normal. As their gazes met and held, he didn’t think he’d ever be able to look away from her again. She drew him to her in so many ways and he was helpless to stop himself from wanting to get closer to her.

The other agents were downstairs and he was upstairs, alone. With Tori.

This wasn’t smart.

Hell, it was a long, long way from smart.

He held his breath, then let out a slow exhale as he lowered his mouth to hers.

The moment their lips met, she gave a sigh, surrendering herself to his kiss. That sense of surrender fueled him, somehow making him desire her even more than he already did.

He moved his lips over hers, hungry for the taste of her, the feel of her. Her scent filled him, as if a part of her was now inside him. Her lips were so soft, her taste exquisite on his tongue. God, he knew he could never get enough of her.

She leaned into him as their body heat melded, fusing them together in a way that defied explanation. Her sighs turned into a soft moan as he moved his hands over her shoulders, down her arms, and to her waist. She was wearing one of her new T-shirts and he pushed the hem up just enough that he could feel her soft skin along the waistband. He gripped her slender waist in his hands, his fingers brushing the base of her spine where she’d been tattooed.

Her hunger and his grew in matching intensity. She moved her palms up his chest to his shoulders and gripped them like she was afraid she would slide away if she didn’t hold on tightly.

He slipped his palms from her waist to her ass, feeling the perfection of it as he squeezed her closer to him. His cock was impossibly hard, pressing against her, straining to get free from behind the tough denim of his jeans.

Their clothes—too much cloth was between them. He wanted to feel her warm silky skin against his, nothing keeping them apart. He wanted only to slide between her thighs and drive his cock deep inside her heat.

The rumble that rose up in his chest was like a lion staking a claim on his territory, and she made an answering purr, giving herself completely to him. Not just surrendering, but offering herself for his pleasure. She asked for nothing, just gave him everything she had.

She sighed again as he slid his lips along her jawline to her ear. She gasped when he nipped at her earlobe and shivered in a delicate way that told him he’d just found one of her erogenous zones. He sucked the soft flesh into his mouth and nipped at it again. He felt another shiver run through her body.

He moved his lips down the column of her neck to the hollow at the base of her throat. The soft purring sounds she made caused his cock to grow even harder and he rubbed himself against her in a slow deliberate movement, like what he’d do when he was inside her.

A gasp escaped her as he cupped her breasts and flicked his thumbs over her taut nipples that pressed against the fabric of her T-shirt. She slid her fingers into his hair and encouraged him to lower his head so his mouth was even with her breasts. His body was close to shaking from the power of his need for her as he circled her nipple with his tongue, wetting the T-shirt and causing her to suck in her breath. She gave a small cry and gripped his hair tighter as he moved his mouth to her other nipple.

He had to taste the salt on her skin, feel its softness in his mouth. He pushed her T-shirt over her perfectly sized breasts and licked each of her nipples through her satin bra. She caught her breath as he pulled her bra beneath her breasts so they were bared for him.

She pushed his head down again, guiding him so that his mouth was directly over her nipple. He skimmed his lips over the hard nub and she moaned as he sucked it and flicked it with his tongue. Her nipples were hard peaks as he nipped at each one. God, but he loved the way she tasted. He loved that she wasn’t afraid to show him what she wanted. He loved everything about her.

The afternoon was cooling off as it turned to dusk and then darkness descended on them. They each grabbed a light sweat jacket from the camper and slipped them on.

Ryan took a couple of steaks out of the cooler to cook over the fire. Megan sliced the potatoes and wrapped them in foil with butter and seasonings and put them in the coals first. Ryan buttered, salted, and peppered the corn on the cob and wrapped them in foil, too. When it was time, they placed the corn along the edge of the fire. Ryan had cored out the onion and put butter in the center and wrapped it in foil and put it in the coals, as well. The steaks went on last, when everything else was just about finished cooking.

When it was ready, they sat on the camping chairs in front of the fire and ate dinner.

“This is unbelievable,” Megan said with a smile.

Firelight flickered on her pretty features, casting shadows in the darkness as they ate. He thought about what he’d said to her earlier.

“I might be falling for you, Meg.”

He didn’t regret his words. He’d dated a lot of women in the past but there’d just been something missing. Something intangible that he hadn’t been able to name.

He’d never been a love ’em and leave ’em kind of guy, but some thought so. He just wasn’t going to hang in there with someone if he knew she wasn’t the right one.

He’d never felt the same way with anyone that he did with Megan.

Last night he’d taken her hard and rough, and the memory caused his groin to ache. Damn she’d been amazing. But she needed to know that he wanted more from her than a night of good, hard sex.

When they finished dinner and had cleaned up, he brought a blanket from the camper and handed it to her before he put out the fire. After he extinguished the fire, he lit a candle within a glass and metal hurricane lantern.

He took her by the hand. “I’ve got something I want to show you.” Her hand was warm in his.

She smiled up at him, her smile causing something deep inside him to stir. He led her into the forest, candlelight from the hurricane lantern lighting the way. The candlelight was much gentler than a regular camping lantern and the shadows from it bounced from tree to tree.

“I saw a place somewhere over here,” he murmured as they walked through the forest then came to a stop. “Here we go.”

A small clearing lay on the other side of a fallen tree, a bed of leaves at the center of the clearing. They stepped over the tree and then he found a sturdy place to set the hurricane before taking the blanket from Megan and spreading it out on the leaves.

He slipped out of his jacket and set it on the fallen tree. “I’ll keep you warm,” he said as he held out his hand.

She looked up at him, slid off her sweat jacket, handed it to him and he set it on top of his own.

He sat on the blanket and beckoned to her. She eased onto her knees beside him and he cupped her face in his hands and lowered his head and kissed her.

Her kiss was sweet and his desire for her kicked into full gear. He wanted to take her hard again, right now. But more importantly, he wanted to show her that it wasn’t only about rough sex with him. It was all about her.

When he drew away from the kiss, her lips were parted, hunger in her pretty green eyes.

“You’re an incredible woman.” He brushed his thumb over her lips, which trembled beneath his touch. “I’ve loved every minute of this weekend.”

“So have I,” she said, her voice just above a whisper. “I wish it didn’t have to end.”

“It doesn’t.” He nuzzled her hair that was silky now that it had dried. “When we return, we just pick right back up where we left off.”

She smiled and he kissed her again. She felt so soft and warm in his arms. He slid his hand under her T-shirt, pleased she didn’t have her bra on as he cupped her bare breast and rubbed his thumb over her nipple. He watched her expression as her lips parted and her eyes grew dark with need.

He drew the T-shirt over her head and set it on the fallen tree. Candlelight flickered, gently touching her bare shoulders and chest.

“You know how much I love your body and how beautiful I think you are,” he murmured before stroking her nipples with the back of his hand.

He cupped her breasts, feeling their weight in his hands before he lowered his head and sucked a nipple.

She gasped and leaned back so that her hands were braced behind her on the blanket, her back arched so that he had better access to her breasts. He pressed them together and moved his mouth from one to the other, sucking one nipple before moving his mouth to the other one. Her nipples were large and hard and he loved sucking on them.

“I want you on your back, looking at me.” He adjusted her so that she was lying on the blanket. Her eyes glittered in the light, desire on her features.

He was surprised at how she made him want to go slow with her, to be gentle and show her how much he cared. She stirred things inside him he’d never felt with another woman.

The backyard was a haven with its tall sycamores, oaks, shrubs, and flowers. Jessie leaned against a pillar on the back porch and looked up at the stars, enjoying the evening scents and the night sounds.
