who was tired. I was a firecracker and Adam was my lit match.
    The question was, what would we ignite? Just us? Or everything the Department held sacred.
    Because one thing was for certain, the more I felt, the more alive I became. And if the Director was after me, then heaven help him. Because Charlie Downes alive, feeling, sensing, living, was an explosion even he would not be able to contain.

One Fucking Day
Adam
    H oly fucking shit , this woman was lethal. And hot. She was freaking hot. I couldn’t decide if I wanted to touch every part of her smoking body or lick it. But hey, I was sure I could manage both.
    She tasted sweet; something fresh, sensual and dark, like after dinner mints. She moaned, when her lips met mine; a sound that reached into the very depths of me and wrenched something tight. Made my stomach contract and my body shudder and every single sensation I felt feel like rocket fuel or liquid nitrogen. Cold and hot and deadly.
    Charlie was deadly. I just couldn’t figure out if her lethal skills would reach only as far as a bed. Or more.
    There was something about her and not just the way her body arched into mine, the way her hips rocked seductively in just the right spot, or her teeth nibbled a little harder than most women would dare. Nor the way her hands never hesitated in their exploration, fingers running over my nipple in a move I know I’d practised before.
    She thought she was in charge of the kiss, but that small slip of sound she’d made when we first came together was enough to let me know the woman may act in control, but under the surface was a fire waiting to become an inferno.
    And she was heating me up as well.
    Vanilla and spice I couldn’t identify invaded my nose as I buried my face in the curve of her neck, blonde hair falling over my cheek, adding to the rush of sensations her hands and proximity were creating. She let out a sigh as she tipped her head back, exposing more of her throat for me to lick and kiss and bite. My mouth open, my tongue lapping, my teeth scraping; I think I was about to explode.
    I made a sound; funny how the tables can turn so quickly. Our lips melded again as though we couldn’t bare to be apart, away from that one connection; mouth to mouth; tongue tangled with tongue; teeth clicking together because we were kissing each other with such unrestrained passion. In that moment I knew paradise. In that caress of lips I found something I had never experienced before. Something real and alive and so fucking consuming.
    It didn’t matter where we were or what time of day it was; I had to have this woman.
    My hands slid down her sides, over the curve of her breasts under her jacket. Her t-shirt slipped out of her trousers and paradise became a whole lot better. Hot skin, smooth like silk, taut over well defined muscles. Fuck, this chick worked out. I gripped her waist and hauled her closer, crushing her up against my erection, letting her get to know my arousal.
    How’s that, baby? Like what you feel?
    Turning abruptly, I spun us around until her back met the railing and my body molded to the length of hers; trapping her, wrapping around her, getting as close to her as I could physically achieve while still dressed. Her leg came up and hooked around my hip, I slipped my hands down to the curve of her fucking fantastic arse and cradled each cheek. Then with an expulsion of air across kiss swollen lips I hauled her up my body, across my now straining cock, until both legs were around my waist and her butt was sitting on the railing at just the right height.
    I could fuck her here. Out in the open for anyone to see. I could take her and make her mine; even if for just this night. I could kiss away her screams of release, lose myself between her thighs, sink myself deep inside her hot, hot pussy.
    I wanted to. Fuck me, my dick was begging me to. But there was something about Charlie. Something more important than a quick shag on the beach.
    And it had
