Every Last Look

My hands smoothed over her shoulders but I knew there was only one way to make the worry go away for more than a few hours.
"I signed the contracts," I said. "Both of them."
She blinked at me. ”You're really selling?"
"Yep, as of Monday, the Hades jump team has new owners."
"And the other thing?"
Pushing the nightgown down Quinn's shoulders, I nodded.
"As of Monday next, the NRCC has a new response coordinator." Taking a breast in each hand, I sucked one nipple then the next. "Hope you don't mind having me underfoot for a whole week."
A soft cry escaped Quinn as she stared at me with tear-filled eyes.
Breaking my hold on her tantalizing flesh, she wrapped her arms around my shoulders and buried her face against my neck.
"Thank you," she whispered.
Then exactly one heartbeat later, she pulled back and delivered her own news. “By the way, we’re having another baby."
Speechless, I stared at her for a few seconds too long.
"I've known for a couple weeks," she continued nervously. "But I didn't want it to affect your decision."
My hands curled against her stomach, my thumbs brushing at the warm flesh as joy unfurled inside me.
"How far along?"
"Month and a half…that joke you made when you and the team were gone to Kootenai for a week…"
"I said I missed your period."
Quinn laughed. "Turns out we both missed it."
"Baby…" At a loss to communicate how happy the news made me, I pulled her to me. I kissed one shoulder, crossed to the other. I cupped her breasts, caressed and kissed them.
Her hips lifted, her nimble hands disappearing below the bubbles to find and guide my cock into her. Quinn sank onto me, a shiver of need visibly running through her curves. Thick nipples pouted, the hard tips begged me to suck at them until they turned a dark red.
I kissed, nibbled, licked.
Her body made waves in the water, her hips bobbing side to side as she rode my length. Time and again, my hands returned to her stomach. When I did, she squeezed at me, soft mewling moans escaping as she ground against my cock.
Snaring a length of hair, I pulled her down, thrust my tongue into her mouth, kissed her hard then oh-so-gentle. The dance of her hips became more insistent. Reaching beneath the waterline, I found her clit and began to rub along its length.
Her greedy moans filled my mouth.
"So beautiful," I murmured when she broke away long enough to suck in a fresh lungful of air.
Quinn returned with a fresh burst of passion, kissing me, her tight pussy pulsing around me, pulling me deeper until we both trembled with our release.
Exhaling, she leaned against me, our wet bodies plastered together. After a while, I brushed the hair from her face.
“You sure you won’t miss the sooty kisses?" I asked, rubbing my nose against hers. “I kind of think the kids will. They’re always telling anyone who’ll listen that their daddy’s a fire-fighting hero.”
She shook her head, her warm brown gaze holding me rapt as her words erased the last of my worries.
“You don't need the smoke and ash to be their hero.” Forehead resting against mine, she added softly, “And as far as I’m concerned, you were my hero long before our first sooty kiss.”

Book Description
* * *
He’s my boss’s brother. Intense and stoic. Humble, disciplined ex-military. And built like a gorgeously rugged tank that somehow manages to make me feel dainty.
* * *
I’ve been keeping a very big, very necessary secret from his entire family for years now. I’ve never liked having to do it. In fact, it’s why I’ve been avoiding him from practically the first day we met.
* * *
Because strangely, I want to let him in. But being an FBI agent is the only thing I’ve ever felt was my true calling. Losing everything I’ve spent years building would just decimate me.
* * *
Problem is, I don’t have a choice anymore. I’m desperate for the kind of help only he can provide. Like I’ve always told my sister, I’d have to be no-other-choice desperate for it to come to this.
* * *
And I am.
