Page 40 of The Hero She Loves

Oh. Goosebumps peppered her skin.

His fingers gripped the towel and hesitated.

Her throat felt thick. When he looked at her, she nodded.

He parted the towel. Another inch and he’d see her bare pussy. She licked her lips, desire roaring to life inside her.

“You going to let me touch you?” His voice was low and gritty. “Wherever I want?”

“Take what you need, Park.”

He moved so fast it was shocking. He pushed her back on the bed, then ripped the towel from her body.

All that intensity was focused on her. Right then, she knew nothing else existed for him but her. It was an intoxicating feeling.

He shoved her legs apart, his warm breath ghosting over her stomach, then he moved lower.

Without any warning, his mouth was on her.

There was no preamble, no foreplay. His stubble scraped her inner thighs and he lapped at her with long strokes.

She arched up. “Park.”

“Yes. That’s what I want to hear.”

Jenna moaned, her blood going hot. He explored her slick flesh, his hot tongue sliding through her pussy. Her hips lifted and she rocked against his mouth. One of his hands slid under her ass, gripping her hard.

The hungry way he licked and sucked told her how much he liked the taste of her. She panted, feeling her impending orgasm gathering, trying to keep some control.

“You taste so good, Jenna. Sweet, spicy.” He licked her like he’d never get enough of her.

God, it felt good. She lifted her hips up to his mouth, making incoherent sounds.

Then he sucked on her clit, pulling it between his lips.

Every muscle in her body was taut. His tongue shifted, delving deep, and he made an appreciative sound. His tongue found her clit again, moving faster. Her hips were moving, her thighs shaking. He sucked on her clit again and it pushed her over the edge.

She broke. She cried out his name, the tension in her exploding into waves of intense pleasure. Her body shuddered.

Jenna flopped back on the bed, feeling like a big pile of goo. Well-pleasured goo.

Park gently nipped her thigh. “Thank you.”

She gave a small laugh. “Park, I should be thankingyouafter that.” She grabbed his hand. “You okay?”

With a nod he rose. He paid no attention to the large erection tenting his shorts. “I’ll go and get ready for dinner.” He shot her a small smile, then headed for the bathroom.

She flopped back on the bed again. Her heart hammering in her chest.

That smile. She looked at the ceiling. Not one bit of this felt casual.

Yes, she was in so much trouble. She’d just crossed another line. Hell, she’d leaped across it willingly. This was already more than she could handle.

She should be focused on her job—herdangerousjob—not this scarred former soldier. But the truth was, she was worried there was nothing she could do to get her mind off Parker Conroy.

No, that was a lie.

The truth was, she didn’t want to get her mind off him.
