Free Pursuit by Lynda Chance Page B

denied. "You took me by surprise, that's all."
    With one hand still controlling her, he wrapped his other arm around her middle and lifted her until she felt his hard arousal pushing into her stomach, threatening her sanity. His gaze was pointed as he held her eyes captured with his and he hissed out in an accusing voice, "You've been taking me by surprise since the moment I met you."
    His mouth came down over hers and with a force that took her by storm, he thrust his tongue into her mouth and began kissing her as if he 'd never let her go. The thought both terrified and elated her, and as she hung in his arms as he ravished her mouth, it flashed across her brain that she'd never again be exactly the same person she'd been before she met him. And that was the part that terrified her, because she didn't want to go back to that time, she didn't want to think about being without him.
    As he kissed her, he kept her off-balance, his touch changing between punishing and adoration and then back again just as swiftly.
    She turned her head to catch her breath, and he quickly began stripping her, and within seconds, he was holding her against the wall, naked and aching for him.
    " Tell me you want my kiss."
    The demand stunned Lauren, and helpless, she gave him what he wanted, both because it was the truth and because she felt how badly he needed to hear her say it. "I want your kiss."
    His sinewy muscles tightened against her. "Logan. Say my name."
    " Logan," she repeated. Her heart turned over at the look reflected from his eyes. "I want your kiss, Logan."
    He leaned down and kissed her again, his tongue going deep and stroking her, mimicking the sex act before ruthlessly pulling away and making another demand. "Don't flinch from me again, you understand me?"
    Lauren shivered in his hold and as he let go of her only long enough to adjust his pants and slide on protection, he said in a softer tone, "Lauren?"
    " You took me by surprise," she repeated softly.
    " I'd never hurt you." He lifted her up and Lauren felt the head of his arousal at her opening. "My God, you have to know I'd never hurt you." He pushed in an inch and then stopped, his face etched in lines of tension. "You drive me insane. You're driving me insane, woman." With that, he pushed all the way in with one strong stroke and Lauren moaned as pleasure, hot and sweet, slid down her spine and wrapped around her entire body.

    Logan impaled her completely, and felt her tight, silky femininity enclose him. He stilled inside of her, finally feeling halfway human now that he was inside of her once again. He closed his eyes and let her softness ease the beast inside of him that was trying to break free.
    He 'd felt damn fine when he'd knocked on her door tonight, but that had been shot to hell as soon as he'd heard her damn phone conversation.
    And there wasn 't a fucking thing he could do about it.
    It had only been two weeks since he 'd seen her for the first time. Two weeks. She wasn't his . He didn't own her or her time. As much as he wanted to, he couldn't impose his will over her. He had to fucking remember that.
    If he tried, she 'd kick him out of her life faster than he could say, 'tag, you're mine.'
    Oh, but he planned on it. Yeah, he planned on saying it before too much longer. He 'd try to wait as long as he could, so she wouldn't figure out how insane he was about her.
    Jesus Christ , he was insane.
    He 'd never felt like this before, ever.
    What the fuck was she doing to him?
    Maybe he needed to stay away from her. Maybe her trip out of town would be a good thing. She was getting too deep into his system and he needed some time to think about all this shit.
    But he 'd think about it later.
    For now, all he could think about was her wet, tight pussy clenched around his cock. Oh yeah, he 'd think about all that other shit later.
    Right now, he was in fucking heaven. He had her exactly where he wanted her; her inner muscles were clenched around him and all he
