that sounded wonderful, but Kayla knew they needed to talk first. Hell, talking was the entire reason she’d come to his room in the first place, and they hadn’t gotten to it…well, not to the talking anyway. They had definitely gotten to other things. “We need to talk first.”
He straightened, his cock slipping from her. “Can we talk in bed?”
Kayla tracked his reflection as he disposed of the condom. She propped herself up on her elbows and met his gaze in the mirror. “Do you think we’ll get any talking done?”
A devilish grin worked its way across his face. “Maybe not, but we’ll have a hell of a lot of fun.”
Jack scooped her into his arms, carried her into the bedroom, and set her down in the center of the bed. She shivered as his nude body covered hers, pressing her into the plush mattress.
“What’s up with the luggage? Are you going somewhere?” He nodded his head toward the duffel bag by the door.
Emotion clogged her throat. She’d been such an ass, hell, they both had. “I guess that all depends.” She trailed her fingers through the damp hair at his nape.
“On?”
“What you say when I’m done talking.” Kayla swallowed against the tears threatening to fall and pressed on. “You hurt me, maybe more than I’ve ever been hurt before. I don’t like feeling used, but then I realized that I used you, too.”
His brows furrowed. “How did you use me?”
“For my own selfish pleasure. I’d pretty well figured that once the ranch sold I’d be out of a job. When I saw you that first day I wanted to jump you right then. I figured if I was going to be leaving anyway why not take advantage of an opportunity to enjoy myself.”
“I don’t think you were the only one who benefited from the time we’ve spent together.” A sexy smile pulled at the corners of his lips.
“Maybe not, but we’re both guilty, and I acted like what you’d done was the most terrible thing in the world, and in truth, I was just as guilty. I’m sorry.” The tears she’d been fighting pushed forward, welling in the corners of her eyes.
“And the bag?” Jack brushed a strand of hair from her cheek and caressed her jaw.
“I don’t want to be here without you. After the time we’ve spent together, I don’t think I’ll ever look at this place the same, and if you aren’t here, I just don’t think I can handle the memories.”
Silence echoed through the room. Kayla held her breath waiting for his response. What was he thinking? Did he still want her? Could she live without him? Yes, she could, but did she really want to? No.
His lips brushed her softly before he pulled back and gazed at her intently. “I want you to listen to me. As long as I live, I don’t ever want to spend a day away from you. No matter where we live, or what we do, as long as we are together, life for me will be as close to heaven as you can get this side of death.” Gently, his thumb grazed her bottom lip. “I love you, and if you’ll have me, I’d like to spend my days trying to make you happy.”
A hot tear blazed a path down her temple. “I want that, too, Jack. I love you.” She pulled his head down and pressed her lips to his.
Jack cupped her cheeks and slid his tongue against hers in a slow, seductive tango. His cock sprang to life between them, throbbing against her inner thigh. Heat raced through her pussy as she rolled her hips against him.
Suddenly, Jack broke the kiss and stared down at her. “What about Jerry? What if he doesn’t like me?”
Kayla chuckled. “I don’t think you need to worry. Who do you think pointed out the error in my thinking?”
Laughter rumbled deep in his chest. “I think we’re all going to get along fine.”
She shifted to the right and let his cock slip into her hungry pussy. “Me, too.”
