Free Forbidden Fruit by Eden Bradley Page A

Her gaze went from his mouth to his hand, to his eyes and back again. She was absolutely flooded with need, with heat.
    He leaned in, a fraction of an inch. Her sex gave a sharp squeeze. She bit her lip.
    “Jesus, Mia Rose,” he muttered before he moved in to kiss her.

Forbidden Fruit

chapter five
    LIPS LIKE CHERRIES. WHAT SONG WAS THAT?
    JAGGER HAD heard it so many times. But now he knew exactly what it meant. Mia’s mouth was soft and sweet, with chocolate and the tangy raspberry coulis. With her.
    She was tentative at first, shy almost, but he kept kissing her, just a soft press of lips against lips, over and over. In moments she opened for him. He slipped inside, and it was like a shock, that wet warmth, the tangle of her tongue against his, the way she immediately gave herself over to him. He’d never felt anything like it.
    He took her face in his hands and went down on his knees beside her chair. He had to do it. There was no way to kiss this woman and stay on his feet.
    Jesus Christ.
    When she sighed into his mouth he just about came apart. And she went even looser, melting right into him. His cock was as hard as it had ever been in his life. He could barely breathe. But he wasn’t going to stop.
    He was nearly panting by the time she pulled back.
    She looked dazed, her pupils enormous, her cheeks flushed.
    “Jagger…” She pulled his hands from her face and looked away.
    “Ah, don’t.”
    She shook her head. “This isn’t right.”
    “It feels right.”
    It’s just the sex, man. You don’t need it to be anything else.
    “That doesn’t make it so, Jagger.”
    “Fuck. You’re right. I’m sorry.” He stood up. So did she.
    “I have to go.” She pushed her dark hair from her face.
    “Look, you don’t have to leave. Stay and finish your dessert.”
    “I can’t.” She moved to the console table by the door and picked up her purse. “I…thank you for the dinner, and…I really have to go. I’m sorry.”
    “I’m not. I’m not sorry I kissed you, Mia Rose.”
    She shook her head again. “I’m going,” she said quietly, but he knew there was nothing he could do to stop her.
    She pulled the door open and slipped through.
    Damn it. The last thing he’d wanted was to chase her away again. But he’d had to kiss her. And he’d told her the truth. He wasn’t sorry he’d done it.
    That kiss had gone through him like heat lightning.
    Like a jolt of electricity. And now he was burning.
    Fuck.
    He pressed a hand to his aching cock, willing his erection to go away. But if it had been bad earlier, simply thinking about her, it was a hundred times worse now. Now that he’d kissed her, tasted her mouth.
    He ripped his shirt over his head, yanked his pants down as he practically ran to the shower, jerked the handles, running the hot water. Steam quickly filled the room as he stepped under the sting of the spray.
    He grabbed the soap right away and lathered his cock, began to pump. He bit his lip, could almost taste her there still.
    Mia Rose.
    Pleasure shot through him, seemed to weigh him down, crushing him, untillhe could barely stand. He leaned against the wall of the shower, let his head fall back, thrust his hips into his fist.
    Yeah, wet and slippery, just like she’d be inside. He knew it, knew it from the silk of her mouth, the slide of her tongue on his.
    Mia Rose.
    His climax bore down on him. Sharp and hot, his come spurting between his fingers. He was panting hard, his hips still pumping even after it was over. It wasn’t enough. Not by far. Because his cock wasn’t the only part of him obsessed with Mia Rose. And it wasn’t only her body he wanted.
    The woman had really spun his head. This endless need to come and come and come was only the beginning of it. He couldn’t even think about the rest.
    He leaned into the coollwall of the shower, let the water wash him clean as he tried to catch his breath.
    Maybe once he fucked her he’d be able to work her out of his system. That’s
