nodded good-bye, then he headed her way.
    “Nice meeting you, Lex. For someone who says she doesn’t do field ops, you were a pro.”
    A proud blush hit her cheeks. “Thanks, Bishop.”
    “Ready?” Parker asked. The tenor of his voice screamed that he wanted his hands on her as much as she wanted to get hers on him. It was less a question and more Hurry the hell up .
    “Yup.”
    With a quick handhold, Parker moved her into the empty hall and had her pressed against the wall. “Lexi, damn it. All I wanted was you safe.”
    “Hey.” She kissed his neck, nuzzling against him, and hugged his neck until he lifted her off the ground.
    “You have no idea the thoughts that went through my mind.” He squeezed her tight, and still she hung on.
    “Same.”
    He put her down. “You in workout clothes? It’s a good look for you.”
    Lexi raised her eyebrow. “You in glasses, crazy hot… where’d they go?”
    “I forgot about these things.” His hand went for his suit coat. With a quick move, he put them on and struck a pose. “Beth says they might get me laid.”
    Lexi laughed, and as Parker went to take them off, she jumped at his hand. “Don’t you dare take those off.”
    With an amused smile, he shook his head, walking to the elevators. He pressed the button and pulled her against him. “All right. Fun is fun.”
    “I’m not kidding. Crazy hot. They might’ve been the only thing to get me through the last couple hours of questioning.”
    “Stop it.” His eyes danced, and Lexi could’ve sworn he blushed slightly.
    “Not a chance.” The elevator dinged. “I saw you in your glasses and fantasized about my husband. It made hours feel like minutes.”
    His smile could have made her clothes melt away as he held the elevator door for her. “Then let’s get home. We have to make a pit stop on the second floor. I need to grab my wallet and keys to a car.”
    She went onto her tiptoes and whispered in his ear. “As long as you don’t take off those glasses.”
    He grabbed her ass. “Dirty girl.”
    “You like it.”
    Parker slid a key card into a hotel room. Jared and Sugar were two steps from walking out as Parker and Lexi headed in.
    “Looking good, Boy Genius.” Sugar rested a hand on her stomach and let Jared pull her into the hall with the other.
    “Sugar’s exhausted. We’re out,” Boss Man said. “See you mañana?”
    “You got it.”
    Lexi pushed her way into the hotel room as Parker continued to chat with Jared, dead set on collecting Parker’s bag so they could go home as well.
    But… Parker came back into the room, gathering his wallet and a set of keys. “Ready, sexy?”
    “Anyone else have a key to this room?” Lexi leaned against the edge of the bed.
    A smile curled on his cheeks as he turned to see her sitting with her best come-hither grin. “Nope.”
    “Just you and me. Those glasses, and—”
    “Those yoga pants.”
    His hungry gaze went straight to her stomach, then below. If she’d been turned on before, then her husband had just lit a fire with a look. “You like?”
    “It’s a nice change of scenery.” Parker strode forward.
    “You’re kind of like the professor right now.”
    His brows jumped predatorily. “I am?”
    Lexi nodded. “Or maybe Mister CEO. The boss. Either way, super sexy.” She ran her hands up his stomach, enjoying the feel of the starched shirt and his rock-hard body. Parker loosened his tie, and her hands dropped to his belt. “Can we play?”
    “Undo the belt, Lexi.”
    Her stomach flipped into her throat. Anticipation she hadn’t experienced before jumpstarted her already-raging arousal.
    “Yes, sir.” Slowly, Lexi unfastened his belt, letting the clasp clink, and then unzipped his pants.
    His bulge made her come alive. Holding his hand out, Parker backed into a chair and beckoned her forward. Lexi dropped to her knees, pulling his pants and boxer briefs down as she went. Kneeling between his thighs, his massive erection in her hand,
