A Fare To Remember_ Just Whistle_Driven - Vicki Lewis Thompson [33]
Faster and faster they bucked against the narrow mattress. Her hair flew out around her, and her breasts bobbed with every thrust.
The furnace kicked on again, as if to add to the energy swirling through the room, and she obliged him with another orgasm, this one noisier than the first.
“There!” he cried. “Ah, Hannah, now!” And he bellowed with satisfaction as his own climax surged through him.
At the force of it, they both nearly toppled off the bed. Hannah saved them both by making a grab for the headboard. Laughter and moans of pleasure mingled as they collapsed against each other and clung to the sides of the small bed.
Zach gulped for air. “This is the best damn hotel room I’ve ever been in.”
“No kidding.” Hannah snuggled against him. “Who needs a suite?”
“Not us.” Zach held her tight. “We have all we need right here.”
She did, that was for sure. “I can’t believe you almost went home tonight.”
“Me, neither.” He stroked her back for several long, sensuous moments. Finally he spoke again. “Hannah, I want you to come down to the office tomorrow morning.”
That startled her. Not exactly pillow talk. “Look, forget what I said about your boss. I’m sure he’s terrific, and I should never have—”
“It’s not about that. I want to introduce you to Ed. He…might have exactly the publishing contact you need.”
How strange. Ed, the guy who’d been kicked out of the corner office. “Okay. That would be great.” Something was going on here, but she wasn’t sure exactly what.
She didn’t have time to think about it, either, because it turned out Zach had a very short recovery time. And the furnace was rumbling again….
IN THE MORNING ZACH suggested they order room service, his treat, just to see if anybody could find them down in the basement. To his surprise, the service was speedier than usual, and he ended up giving them a sizable tip for being so prompt. The staff seemed to know exactly where 25B was, which validated his suspicion that it was a rendezvous point.
After breakfast he longed to hang around for more fun and games, but he needed to make sure he got to the office on time so he could talk with Ed. “You know where to go, right?” he asked for the fourth time as he finished dressing.
“I know exactly where to go.” She’d taken a shower and washed her hair, so she sat on the bed with one towel wrapped around her wet hair and the other barely concealing her lush body.
He deserved a medal for keeping his hands off her. “I just want to make sure.”
She smiled. “I’m new to town, but I’m reasonably intelligent.”
So was he, but all his intelligence threatened to abandon him when she smiled like that. She was so incredibly beautiful, and spending the night with her had convinced him that he would never find anyone so special if he searched for a million years. But she wasn’t in the market for a commitment, and he might soon be unworthy of making one.
“Zach, are you okay?” She stood and walked over to him, which only took two steps in the tiny room.
“Yeah.” He gave in to temptation and pulled her close. Just a few moments, to carry him through. No telling when he’d ever be able to hold her again. Life could get complicated after today.
She put her arms around his neck and the towel came undone. “You spaced out there for a minute.”
He saw the towel slip and deliberately raised his glance to her face. “You sitting there in a towel would make any man space out. And now the towel arrangement is getting dicey.” He held her tight and gazed into those dancing brown eyes. He was in love with her, and he couldn’t say a word. “Another few seconds and I can’t be responsible for what happens.”
“It’s not my fault. The towels are skimpy.”
He leaned down and brushed his lips over hers. So sweet. So very sweet. “I bribed the front desk to make sure they stocked the tiny ones in this room.”
“You keep talking like that and I’ll think you arranged to have me kicked out of the suite, just
