A SEAL's Seduction (Alpha SEALs Book 4)
Page 11
He rinsed her hair, the suds from the shampoo washing down across her bare shoulders, breasts, and back. She wouldn’t smell like vanilla anymore, she’d smell like him. His cock rose to attention at that thought. Kenley was his.
She giggled and gently rubbed her ass against him. “Ready again, sailor?”
“With you, I’m always ready. Let’s get cleaned up and then I’m taking you to bed.”
Mike washed her gently, paying careful attention to her voluptuous breasts. Hell, he could spend all night just kissing and suckling them. Could she come just from his playing with her nipples? She’d seemed sensitive before, and he was dying to find out.
Quickly scrubbing himself off, he helped her to stand. The water began gurgling as it swirled down the drain, and he assisted Kenley in stepping out of the tub before drying them each off with some fluffy towels.
“Is your arm okay?”
“A little sore; I think the painkillers might be wearing off.”
“I’ll get you some aspirin.”
Mike captured her from behind in a bear hug, loving the feel of her smaller body in his arms. He ducked his head to her ear, nibbling on it before asking if she wanted dinner or bed. Her stomach rumbled before she could answer, and Mike chuckled. “Dinner first then. And I got so distracted by taking a bath with you, I forget to call Christopher and tell them we made it back safely. Do you want to call Lexi while I heat something up?”
“So you cook, too?” Kenley asked, wiggling around to look up at him. “When you’re not out saving the world?”
“For you I will,” he said with a wicked grin. “Besides, I need you to keep your energy up. I’ve got a long night planned.”
Kenley blushed as Mike raised his eyebrows. “Honey, we just made love in my bathtub. You don’t need to blush around me.”
“Stop, you’re embarrassing me,” she said, lightly swatting him on the chest.
Mike smirked. That was about the cutest thing he’d ever seen. Like she could really stop his teasing. It was cuter than hell the way she blushed around him. And sexy as fuck when she came.
“Hell, I’d eat you for dinner and be satisfied. But instead I’ll just have to save that sweet little pussy of yours for dessert.”
He turned and strode toward the door, glancing back over her shoulder to wink. Kenley was standing there, mouth agape, clutching the bath towel. And she was about to dress in his clothes. There was something damn satisfying about having her here. About bathing her, cooking for her, and having her in his home. And after dinner, he planned to have her in as many ways as possible.

“Are you okay, baby?” Mike asked as he grinned up at her. Kenley had screamed louder than she ever had in her life as Mike made her come on his tongue. She was surprised the neighbors weren’t currently dialing 911. Holy hell. What that man could do with his mouth was absolutely sinful.
“Okay?” she asked breathlessly. “After that, I don’t think I’ll ever be okay again. That was amazing.”
Mike chuckled. “That’s how I plan to wake you up in the morning. Fair warning,” he said with a wink.
Jesus. She didn’t think she could survive another one of his Earth-shattering orgasms.
Mike prowled back up her body, kissing her softly on the stomach, slowly kissing the underside of one breast before sucking one nipple into his mouth. She writhed and moaned beneath him, still sensitive and sore from all the attention he’d laved on her all evening. Every pull of her nipple she felt in her still throbbing clit, and at the moment, she wouldn’t be surprised if she orgasmed again. Mike was that good.
He had cooked dinner for them, a simple pasta and chicken dish that had been delicious. She’d spoken briefly to Lexi while he’d whipped everything up in the kitchen, and the meal had surprisingly been relaxed and comfortable. She thought she’d be embarrassed after making love in the bath with him, but he’d been attentive and sweet. He’d even offered to pick up some clothes at her condo for her if that would make her feel more comfortable, but she’d decided everything else could wait until morning.
Matthew had briefly swung by, dropping off her car and keys, and she’d flushed as his gaze had swept over her in Mike’s clothing. He’d winked before he left, and it had embarrassed her to the core having his friends knowing she was here. She knew Christopher had been waiting in the car, and what Matthew told him would of course make it back to Lexi. Her best friend would be dying for details tomorrow, but for the night, she planned to just enjoy being here with Mike. They’d enjoy each other, maybe even see each other again this week or next. But before long, she’d be leaving. She’d be back at home in Arlington. Flings weren’t exactly her thing, and she certainly would never get into a serious relationship with a Navy SEAL who was gone half that time. But for the moment? She was done fighting the sizzling chemistry between them.
And right now in his bedroom? Holy hell. He was attentive in a whole other kind of way. Kenley didn’t even want to imagine all the women he’d been with to become such an expert on the female form. He seemed to make her rise higher and higher each time he touched her. Make her climax that much harder. Was it like that with everyone? She’d never flown so high in her life as with Mike. The chemistry between them was off-the-charts amazing. Part of her wanted to run the other way, protecting herself from the inevitable hurt that had to follow a night as great as this. And another part of her wanted to never leave, to submit to his control over her body in the bedroom.
Those full male lips that had been expertly kissing all her bare flesh finally reached her mouth. He claimed her, kissing her aggressively, sweeping his tongue inside to explore and conquer. He tasted slightly of beer and spice. And it was good. So, so good.
“How’s your arm feeling?” he asked huskily.
“I’m okay, Mike,” she replied, wrapping her arms around his neck. His broad shoulders were heavenly, and although she felt slightly awkward holding him this way with her cast, she wanted him closer. His thick erection pushed against her sensitive inner thigh, and she wanted him in her, moving over her, exactly like this. She’d rode him in the bathtub, but she needed to feel his powerful body holding her down on his bed, making her his once more.
“Thank God. Because tonight I plan to make you come so many times, you can’t see straight.”
“That’s quite a promise.”
“I’ve wanted you since the first moment I laid eyes on you,” he said, his voice gravel. “Having you here in my bed is like a fantasy come true.”
“I wanted you, too,” Kenley admitted.
“Since when?” he asked, nipping at her neck. His teeth grazed across her sensitive skin, and she shivered.
“Since the night at the condo. When you held me against the wall, holding my wrists, pressing your body against mine….” She trailed off, embarrassed. She wasn’t used to talking about sex this way. Or wanting a man so much. She’d always had safe, predictable sex before. It was nice but nothing spectacular. Nothing even close to the rush she had with Mike. Never had a man demanded anything of her, commanded her to do anything. And now? She loved the way Mike controlled their lovemaking, taking charge without question. It was like he knew exactly what her body craved and gave it to her. Over and over again.
“I was so hard for you then. Just like I am right now,” he teased, rubbing his erection up against her slick folds. He was so hot and ready for her, she was desperate to feel him penetrating her again, pushing deep inside her core.
“Mmm, you feel so good….”
“I’m sorry your wrist is fractured, baby. Because I’d love to pin you down right here, driving into you until you come on my cock.”
Kenley blushed furiously, her breasts swelling and nipples tightening in arousal. She’d never before wanted a man to treat her that way—to hold her down hard as he took her. But the idea of Mike making her come that way was incredibly arousing.
“Hell, I’d love to tie your wrists up and blindfold you. Make you beg me for mer
cy.”
She gasped, and Mike met her gaze. His fingertips trailed gently across her lips. “What are you thinking?” he asked.
“I, I’ve never done anything like that before.”
“I’d make it so good for you,” he assured her. “Of course I wouldn’t tie your wrists together now—not with your cast. But I could blindfold you. Would you like that?”
“What…what would you do?”
His eyes heated. “Pleasure you. Make you come harder than you ever have before.”
“Um, I don’t think….”
“Another time,” he whispered, kissing her lightly. “I can make you feel good just like this.” He lined the tip of his erection up to her center and edged slightly inside, holding himself there.
“Mike,” she pleaded.
He pulled out slightly and then thrust into her again, filling her completely as she gasped. Her sex was so swollen and ready for him, she immediately adjusted to accommodate his large size. When Mike slid inside her, he slaked a need she couldn’t even begin to understand. Her body ached for him, for his fullness inside her, for the weight of his body covering her.
His hand slid to where their bodies joined, and he rubbed his thumb over her clit, causing her to cry out. Gently pumping into her sex as he toyed with her had her flying in seconds. She cried out as waves of pleasure washed over her, as she surrendered yet again to his control. This man would be her very undoing, and she had absolutely no power to stop any of it.
Chapter 14
Kenley moaned the next morning, waves of pleasure washing over her as sunlight streamed in the room. She felt relaxed and content in the comfortable bed, and she shut her eyes more tightly, not wanting this delicious dream to end. Heat was spiraling down from her core, setting all of her nerve endings on fire. Her entire body pulsed with pleasure. Reaching down, she felt Mike’s head right where she needed him, pleasuring her like he’d done last night. God, she never wanted it to end. What he did with his mouth and his tongue was magic, and if she thought she’d come hard from their lovemaking, it had been nothing compared to Mike going down on her.
She gasped, arching her hips up to meet his clever mouth. He eagerly increased the flicks of his tongue, simply devouring her. Shockwaves of pleasure rocked through her, the exquisite feeling almost too much to bear.
The sensations stopped for just a moment as she opened her eyes, and she gasped in shock at the sight of Mike crouched on the bed, holding her legs apart. “Good morning, baby,” he murmured, smug male satisfaction crossing his face.
“Mike….”
He slung her legs up over his broad shoulders, opening her even more to him. He’d told her last night that he planned to wake her up this way this morning, but she’d thought he’d been teasing. This was too much, too good—she was going to explode only seconds after waking.
Mike slid his hands under her bottom, pulling her closer to his face. She squealed with pleasure, and he continued his erotic kiss. She was helpless to this man, her legs splayed over his shoulders, her sex wide open and his for the taking. He held her to him so she couldn’t have moved away if she’d wanted to. And holy hell, she never wanted this pleasure to end.
His tongue lapped at her clit, sending her higher and higher with each stroke. She cried out, nearing the precipice, and he sucked her throbbing bud into his mouth. His ministrations got faster and faster, and she screamed out his name, bucking wildly against his face as she came on his tongue.
Mike didn’t let up, drawing every last ounce of pleasure out of her as she writhed and clutched the sheets in her hand. The arm in a cast lay heavy on the bed, and she was spent, exhausted from the Earth-shattering orgasm. He kissed her softly on her nether lips before letting her legs down and shooting her a lazy grin. “You taste like a fucking goddess, Kenley. I’m going to wake you up like that every damn morning. I can’t get enough of your taste on my tongue.”
He prowled back up her body, his thick erection lying against her thigh. She tried to wrap her arms around his broad shoulders and winced in pain as she moved her wrist at that angle. The painkillers from last night had long worn off.
“Shit, are you okay?” he asked, immediately easing off of her. “Did I hurt you?”
“No, my arm is just a little sore. It didn’t hurt until I tried to move it just now.”
Mike jumped up from the bed, unabashed in his nakedness. His erection stood loud and proud, but he strode to the bathroom and was instantly back with medicine and a cup of water. “Here, drink this. I’ll make us breakfast while it kicks in.”
She glanced down at him. “But….”
“Honey, I’m always hard around you. Get used to it.” He winked and slipped on some boxer briefs, walking out of the master bedroom.
Kenley heard him rummaging around in the kitchen, along with the clanking of pots and pans. She should offer to help him, but how much use would she really be with her injured wrist? Plus the painkillers would take a little while to start working. She snuggled back under the covers and shut her eyes. Maybe if she drifted off to sleep for a few minutes, she’d feel better.

“Do you have to go into work today?” Mike asked as he set a steaming plate of bacon, eggs, toast, and chocolate chip pancakes in front of her. Kenley looked thoroughly sated, he thought smugly. Her face was flushed, her eyes glowing, and that gorgeous head of curls was rumpled like she’d spent the entire night rolling around between the sheets. Which they pretty much had.
“Wow, this looks delicious, but I’ll never be able to eat all this.”
Mike shrugged. “I wasn’t sure what you liked.”
“Well, thanks. I’m starving.”
Mike grinned. “I wonder why you’ve got such an appetite this morning,” he teased. Kenley turned an even rosier hue but smiled at him.
“No idea,” she commented dryly. “And to answer your question, my boss left me a message this morning, telling me to take the day off. Someone else is driving all that paperwork for the new hires down, and HR from the home office will schedule the second round of interviews. I’ll be the one conducting them of course, which means I’ll be back at it tomorrow. But at least I have a day to take it easy.”
Mike frowned. After the night she’d been through, one day hardly seemed like enough recovery time. And he hadn’t exactly let her get a ton of rest last night, he thought guiltily.
“What time is it? Don’t you guys usually go in really early? I thought Christopher always had to be on base at the crack of dawn.”
“That we do,” Mike agreed. “We’ve got a later start time today though because we’ll be doing some night training.”
“Oh, with night vision goggles and stuff? Are you going to deploy soon?”
“Don’t know. We don’t get much advance notice. When you’re a SEAL, you’re pretty much at Uncle Sam’s beck and call twenty-four seven. We can be ready to roll out in a matter of hours.”
Kenley frowned, and Mike felt a wave of uneasiness wash over him. Was she concerned about his missions or the fact that he was gone a lot of the time? He didn’t like the idea of her being upset or worried about him. Usually when his SEAL team was sent on an op, he didn’t worry about a thing back at home. If the idea of leaving Kenley behind gave him second thoughts about leaving, then what was she thinking or feeling? If things progressed between them, they’d have to discuss it at some point.
It was difficult maintaining a relationship when you were in the military, and especially when you were a SEAL. Lots of wives and girlfriends couldn’t handle the stress of not knowing where the men were going, where they’d be while they were gone, or when they’d return. Not that he and Kenley were a couple or something. They’d spent one night together. A fantastic, amazing night that he was looking to repeat as soon as possible.
Mike cleared his throat. “I wish I could stop by tonight to check on you, but we’ll be out late.”
“Oh, it’s okay,” she replied, looking surprised that he wanted
to check in on her. Hell, after the night they’d spent together, was it really that shocking? He cared about her. Couldn’t she see that? “I’ll probably just rest today and then get back to work tomorrow. That reminds me, did Matthew and Christopher have trouble with the car door? I couldn’t get it open last night when I ran off the road.”
“They didn’t mention it. It was probably just blocked by whatever you hit. We had it towed back onto the highway, and the guys drove it back without incident. We can check it out this morning before you go if you’re concerned. Or take it in to be fixed if need be.”
Kenley looked slightly uncomfortable. “I can take it by a repair shop. I might need to get a recommendation from you though. My mechanic is back in Arlington, so I don’t exactly know what’s around here. But I need to be able to get in and out of the car.”
“I’ll go in with you this morning if you’re worried,” Mike said. “I don’t have to be on base until noon.”
“No, don’t worry about it.” She pushed the food around on her plate, and a pit settled in Mike’s gut. After the past twelve hours they’d spent together, why was she pushing him away now? It was almost like she didn’t want his help.
He raised his eyebrows when she looked up and met his gaze. “Thanks for offering,” she hastily added. “I’m just used to doing things by myself.”
“You don’t have to as long as I’m here.”
She shrugged. “But that’s just the thing. I’ll be leaving after I conduct this second round of interviews. Going back to Northern Virginia. I mean, I appreciate you offering to help me today. Let’s just not pretend this is something it’s not.”
“Arlington’s not that far away. What, maybe four hours? You think just because you’re going back there that I don’t want to see you again?”
“Maybe it’s not too far from Virginia Beach, but it’s a hell of a long way from Afghanistan.”
Mike raised his eyebrows.
“Mike, I work for a Defense contractor. Maybe you can’t tell me exactly where you go all the time on your deployments with the SEALs, but I certainly have an idea. When I was kid, my parents were gone all the time. I was always left to fend for myself, and I’m not going to do that anymore. Not in a relationship. When I do eventually meet someone,” she quickly added, heat rising in her cheeks, “I want it to be someone who’s there for me.”
