Page 20 of No Going Back

The moment their lips touched her body soared to life. Full life like she’d never experienced before. His clean man scent, the texture of the hair on his forearms, the play of his muscles.

Her own muscles went lax, and she leaned further into his strength. Without breaking the kiss, Sean’s strong hands moved to her hips, and he lifted her onto his lap, where she could feel his erection against her.

She smiled without lifting her lips, then whispered. “Much better.”

She felt his smile before they dove back into a kiss that nearly had the top of her head popping off.

When they pulled back to breathe, Sean trailed kisses along her jawline and down her neck to where her pulse galloped. Her head dropped back as he teased her there, and when she tightened her legs around him, he groaned at the intimate contact.

So, she did it again.

His teeth nipped her neck lightly, and then he soothed the area with his tongue. “Payback, Branna.”

She liked the sound of that, so she ran her fingers under his T-shirt and traced her fingers along his abs. The muscles flinched as she moved, and she heard her own sigh of pleasure mix with his.

His mouth came up to capture hers again and his fingers slipped under the borrowed t-shirt. She hadn’t wanted to wear her bra until she washed it, so she was bare under the shirt. When he discovered that, more heat flared in his eyes and his smile widened.

“Nice.” Sean’s fingers moved up slowly, and she ground down on his erection. When he brushed the undersides of her breasts, his mouth broke from hers. His gaze locked on hers, and they nearly set fire to the house with just that look.

“You’re killing me, Branna. Killing me.”

Eyes on hers, he cupped her breasts and thumbed her nipples. When her eyes drifted close and her head started to drop back, he spoke with a gravelly voice that did all sorts of great things to her body. “Eyes on me, Branna. Let me see what my touch does to you.”

She dragged her eyes open and focused on him. His deep, dark eyes weren’t pure black. The flecks of gold were brighter than normal, and she could see the desire. Heat. Love?

The thought that he might have real feelings that echoed her own spurred her emotions even higher and her body spiraled.

Sean’s fingers played with her breasts until he found the touches that had her squirming in his lap. His grin turned predatory as her body started to spin inside. Her breathing shortened and she wanted more. She wanted it all.

Sean dropped his head and kissed her neck, where her pulse raced against her skin. His lips trailed along her jaw and to her ear, where he whispered. “Let me see what happens when you fly.”

His growly words had her spiraling higher. “That’s it, gorgeous girl. Let go, let it all go. Fly.”

Branna’s body contracted and flew. There was no other word for the sensations filling her body and mind. Waves of pleasure battle for dominance and she couldn’t keep track of them all.

When her ears functioned again, her harsh breathing was the first sound she heard. She lifted her heavy eyelids to find Sean’s gaze still locked on her. The heat she saw had her body reacting with more shivers.

With a grin, he kept his fingers moving and leaned forward to kiss her. “Absolutely stunning, Branna.”

Branna reached her hands up to cup Sean’s jaw. The man hadn’t done more than play with her breasts and kiss her. He was potent, and she wanted him. “I’ve never felt anything like that. I think I left the planet for a moment there.”

His grin was cocky and sexy as hell. “And we’re just getting started.”

She liked the sound of that, but when she reached for the jeans he wore, his phone buzzed on the island behind him.

Sean swore and dropped his head to her shoulder while he drew in long breaths. He slid his hands out from under her T-shirt and straightened her clothes. He peeked over her shoulder at the phone and swore again. “Troy. With a video call. We should take this.”

Branna groaned at the interruption, but she kissed Sean lightly and slid off his lap. “To be continued. You answer it. I’ll be back in a second.”

He kissed her back. “Definitely to be continued.”

She scooted to the bathroom, needing to splash water on her face so she didn’t look like she’d just had the best orgasm of her life.

A glance in the mirror told her that was exactly how she looked. Smiling, she cleaned up and held cold water to her cheeks to cool them. Then she took a deep breath and returned to the kitchen.

Jabba stretched from where he’d been snoozing in the hallway and nuzzled into her as they crossed the room.

Sean had his back to her and she could see another man on his phone screen. Must be Troy.
