Chapter 9
Kara was lost in the touch of Grayson’s lips. He deepened his kiss, causing a hitch in her breath. When they reached the bedroom, he lowered Kara to the ground until she was standing in front of the king-size bed.
The only illumination in the room came from the moonlight shining in the windows. Kara couldn’t believe how lucky she was to be standing before Grayson. The man took her breath away and made her feel safe. When Grayson hesitated for a moment, she thought he was going to stop. But she wanted him deep inside her, so she leaned in to capture his mouth and encourage him to continue. He was the most addictive thing she had ever touched, and she couldn’t wait to have her body wrapped around him.
When her tongue swiped through his mouth, Grayson matched her movement. The hesitation she had felt was gone. Grayson’s pupils were dilated. She could tell that, without a doubt, he wanted more of her.
“If you want to stop, tell me now,” he growled against her lips, but Kara was too far gone.
She grabbed the bottom of his shirt and slowly dragged it up his chest. The feel of Grayson’s muscles under her hands made her even more turned on by the man’s body. “Don’t stop,” Kara whispered and kissed her way down his chest until she was kneeling before him.
Kara worked the zipper down on Grayson’s jeans. When she reached in and pulled out his member, he let out a sigh. Grayson placed his hands on the top of Kara’s head, weaving his fingers into her golden locks.
Kara took his length into her mouth slowly, and Grayson grabbed the bedpost. She continued to take him in and out of her mouth, enjoying the noise he was making. She could tell he was getting close to his climax. The louder she heard Grayson breathe, the wetter she became.
Reaching up to cup his balls, Kara worked his member farther down her throat. It turned her on to have Grayson moaning and shuddering because of her. She was so turned on that she wanted to throw Grayson on the bed and have her way with him. But the need for him to come under her touch was stronger. The man standing before her was always so composed, and nothing seemed to get under his skin. But in this moment, he was helpless under her touch, and she loved every moment of it.
He threw his head back and moaned when she sucked harder. Kara hummed and felt Grayson tense. She could tell he was close to going over the edge. She wanted him to lose himself under her touch. “Up,” Grayson demanded. Instead of obeying his command, she took him deeper down her throat.
He pulled her up from her knees and pressed her against his body, capturing her lips once more.
“Did I do something wrong?” Kara asked.
“You know you didn’t do anything wrong.” His voice was husky. “It felt too good, and I need to taste you. I want to lick every inch of your body.”
“Then what are you waiting for?” The words barely left Kara’s mouth before Grayson tore the T-shirt off her body.
“Hey, you could have taken it off.”
“I will buy you a new one. You have two seconds to get those pants off before I do the same thing to them.”
Kara quickly finished undressing and lay across the bed. Grayson stood at the foot of it, his eyes focused on her. Under Grayson’s stare, Kara became more aroused by the second. She could see the hunger in his eyes, and she never wanted the night to end. A man had never looked at her the way Grayson had.
Grayson crawled onto the bed. She couldn’t hold back the sigh as he slowly licked his way up her thigh.
Kara was lost in Grayson’s touch. When he reached her velvety folds, he took a long lick. Then, sliding his fingers deep inside her, he growled, “Ride my hand.” He leaned down and took her clit into his mouth, slightly biting it with his teeth.
Kara was writhing against his mouth and hand, and she let out a tiny moan. But she was greedy. She needed more, so she demanded more. “I need you inside me,” she whispered. She couldn’t think of anything else except the pleasure Grayson was giving her.
Without hesitation, Grayson shoved his jeans off the rest of the way. The muscles of his torso flexed with each move. Kara’s fingers itched to touch his golden skin. Holy hell, he was sexy. She felt a spark when her fingers finally ran over his muscular arms.
When her eyes met Grayson’s, she could see his need and desire. It took everything in her not to scream out her feelings. She had never experienced such intense feelings. She wanted to shout, “I like you! I like you!” The words bounced around in her head. She hoped she hadn’t said them out loud. She was trying to play it cool.
“You’re so fucking beautiful,” he murmured before lowering his head and capturing her nipple in his mouth. His other hand cupped her full breast, and he rocked his cock against her. She arched to get more friction. She wanted him inside her.
Kara tugged at Grayson’s hair. Her nipple popped out of his mouth, and a sexy grin came across his face.
“Please don’t make me wait any longer,” Kara pleaded.
Grayson thrust into Kara. He paused for a moment, and Kara wiggled under his body.
“Move, Grayson.”
Grayson leaned down and captured her lips in his. He slowly worked his member in and out of her folds. She had never experienced a feeling like being with Grayson. She was lost in his touch, and the outside world faded away. Her body clenched with each thrust, demanding more from him.
She raised her hips and met each of his thrusts. Grayson reached between them, using his thumb to rub her clit. The second his finger touched her, she let out a moan of pure pleasure. She closed her eyes and arched her back, trying to feel him deeper. Grayson pinched her clit, and she couldn’t hold back any longer. The orgasm was so intense that her vision blurred.
Grayson increased his speed. Two deep thrusts later, she felt him climax then relax under her touch. Words couldn’t explain the feelings surging through her. Kara hoped they could do that again.
Grayson rolled over onto his side and pulled Kara to his chest. They were both panting from their session of lovemaking.
“That was…” Kara didn’t know how to describe what had just happened between them. There weren’t words to explain the feelings she had.
“Yeah,” Grayson agreed.
Kara noticed that Grayson tensed when she traced her fingers over the tattoo on his chest. It was obviously military in nature and looked to be a memorial of some sort. Three dog tags were wrapped around a pair of military-style boots. A rifle was sticking out of the boots, and a helmet hung from the gun barrel.
“Why did you get this tattoo?”
Minutes of silence ticked by. Kara didn’t think he would answer. She wasn’t going to push him to talk about it. He’d do it in his own time.
“The dog tags represent the men that were lost on my last mission—Phantom, Pyro, and Reaper.”
“You want to talk about it?”
Grayson pulled Kara in closer to his side and kissed her forehead. “I haven’t talked to anyone about that day. Noah and I were the only ones to survive.” He took in a ragged breath. “We were heading into town to check on some intel we had received. The main road we normally took was blocked. Instead of heading back to base to make sure the alternate route was okay, we just took it. The contact we were meeting was skittish, and if we had been late, he would have taken off.”
Grayson reached down and rubbed his knee.
Kara wasn’t sure if he hurt it carrying her earlier or if talking about the incident brought back the pain. “Did you reinjure your knee carrying me?” A wave of guilt washed over her.
“No, Angel. There is always a dull pain. I think talking about that time is making it worse.”
“You don’t have to tell me.”
When he started talking again, Kara listened to his heartbreaking story. “We had been overseas for six months straight. I can’t tell you the details of the mission, but we were gathering intel on a high-ranking member of ISIS. The intel we were supposed to get would have been our big break. I decided to take the alternate route without clearing it first. Hell,
I could see the town in the distance when everything went black. The last thing I remember is hearing Noah’s laughter at some joke Pyro made. Then I woke up in a hospital.”
“It wasn’t your fault.” She knew deep down he blamed himself for that day and the decision he made.
“If they hadn’t agreed, the team would’ve spoken up. I know it isn’t my fault, but fuck, every time I look at Noah, I feel like he’s missing his leg because of me.”
“I bet he doesn’t blame you.” Kara had grown up wishing she had a brother or sister to spend time with. She believed that no matter what family did to each other, they should always have each other’s backs. But considering her father, she knew that might not always be the case. Kara thought Grayson needed to give Noah time.
“I hope he can forgive me someday,” Grayson whispered, and Kara’s heart clenched with the sadness in his voice.
“He’s helping us on this case.”
“Yes, he is. He uses computers and the dark web to escape the reality of the world. Noah was used by numerous teams for his computer skills.”
Kara sensed that Grayson didn’t want to talk about the incident anymore by the shift in his mood.
“I would like to meet Noah,” she said.
“He will like you. Now, tell me about you.”
Kara slowly dragged her hand up Grayson’s thigh. “I would rather learn more about you.”
Grayson captured her lips, and they spent the night making love.
Chapter 10
The ringing of Grayson’s phone woke them from their sleep.
“Make it stop,” he heard Kara mutter as she pushed at his back, trying to wake him up. By the fifth ring, he reached over and grabbed his smartphone off the nightstand.
He answered the phone and barked, “What?”
“He’s gone.”
At Hank’s words, Grayson was wide awake. Kara sat upright beside him. Her blond locks cascaded down her shoulders. She was even more beautiful in the morning sun after a night of lovemaking. The thought of Kara under him last night had his dick stirring. It was hard to concentrate on the conversation with Hank.
“Frank or Rovshan?”
“We’ve been watching the private airfield. When we saw Rovshan getting his plane ready, Bear and I headed out to have a visit before he boarded.” Grayson heard Hank take a drink of something, probably coffee since it was so early. “He’s not coming after Kara anymore. Said something about Kara being a bigger problem than he wants to deal with.”
“Do you believe him?”
“Surprisingly, yes. I think your brother might’ve given him a little trouble.”
Grayson was happy Noah had never used his hacking skills on him. Many times, while they were in the navy, the CIA had tried to recruit him to come work for them. Grayson still wondered if Noah had done work for them on the side. He would call his brother to thank him and find out what he’d done. More than likely, he drained Rovshan’s accounts and then electronically killed the man. That was one of Noah’s favorite things to do—kill people electronically.
“Thank you for your help, Hank. I will come out to the ranch tomorrow. Kara will want to head to her family ranch today.”
They said their goodbyes. Kara was vibrating with energy by the time he clicked off the phone.
“Rovshan’s gone?”
“Yes.”
Grayson decided they could discuss Rovshan later. He had other things he wanted to do at that moment, such as bury himself deep inside the woman who had just straddled his hips.
Grayson wrapped his hands in Kara’s hair and brought her lips down to his. Her golden locks fell around him, and she ground her hips against his girth. The feeling was close to sending him over the edge. Grayson grabbed her hips and steadied her movement before he embarrassed himself as if he were a teenager.
As the tension in Grayson’s body increased, he flipped Kara onto her back next to him. He dragged his fingers through her slick folds, and her body arched off the bed, a moan escaping her lips.
“Grayson.”
“What do you want, Angel?” he whispered into her ear.
“More.”
Grayson slipped his finger into her velvety folds and increased his speed. He could feel her walls pulsing around his finger. He lowered his head to her nipple and sucked. He could feel her hands running through his hair, pulling his head tighter to her body. With each suck, she moved faster on his hand. When Grayson glanced up at Kara’s face, she had her eyes tightly shut.
He could tell she was close and brushed his thumb across her nub. Grayson could feel her body shake underneath him with each pass. Her folds were trying to suck his fingers in, needing every ounce of pleasure he was giving her. The cry of his name from her lips as she climaxed was almost too much for him to handle.
Grayson watched Kara come out of the fog of her orgasm. Her blond curls were spread across the pillow. He slowly kissed his way up her body until he captured her lips, then he kissed the tip of her nose. “You’re so beautiful when you fall apart on my hand.”
Kara smiled. “That was earth-shattering.”
“Your body is like a fine harp, and when I strike the right strings, the beauty under my hand is amazing.”
“Now it’s your turn.” Before Grayson could say anything, her silky lips were wrapped around his hard girth. Using her delicate hands, she cupped his balls and took him down her throat.
It took everything Grayson had to hold back his climax. “Angel, I need to be inside you.” He pulled her up to his body and flipped her on her back. The need to be inside her was strong. He was in her in one thrust. It felt like heaven, and his body was on fire.
“Move, Grayson.” She gripped his ass, trying to get him to move. “I need you to move.”
A smile came across Grayson's face. He slowly worked his length in and out of her. “How’s this, Angel?”
She made a cute frustrated noise under him. “Faster.”
At her command, he worked himself in and out of her velvety folds. Grayson put his thumb on her nub and worked it in a circle. When he knew she was close to coming again, he captured her lips. The feeling of her clenching around his length sent him over the edge.
When she was satisfied, Grayson kissed her again and pulled her to his side. An image of Kara at the Lazy S Ranch, cooking in the kitchen, floated through his head.
“Wow. That was amazing,” Kara whispered.
“No, you were amazing. I have a feeling I will never get enough of you.”
Grayson heard Kara’s stomach growl. They looked at each other and laughed.
“Do you want to hit Al’s Diner for breakfast and then head to your ranch?”
“Sure. Do you think my father will be there?”
“I’m not sure. Let’s take one hurdle at a time. We’ll talk to the foreman and see if he knows anything, and then we can figure out what to do about your dad.”
One booth in the back of the diner sat open. All the other seats were taken. Kara scooted into the side with her back facing the door. She had learned over the last few days that Grayson didn’t like his back facing the exits.
The waitress came over right as they sat down and took their food and drink order. Out of habit, Grayson checked her name tag. It read “Wendy.” They hadn’t met her yet. Kara and Grayson both ordered the daily special.
Grayson rested both of his elbows on the table and gave Kara his full attention. “Have you thought about what you plan to do? Are you going to stay in Montana?”
He was hoping she would come back to Denver. He understood she had a lot of responsibilities she’d have to take up on the ranch. He held his breath, waiting for an answer.
She let out a long sigh. “I know I should stay here and take care of Montana Gold, but my life is in Denver. The ranch will need my attention for the next week while I get everything in order.”
He was excited to hear she was going back to Denver. Grayson didn’t care how selfish he was. The more time he spent with
Kara, the more he wanted her around.
“Do you trust me?”
“I know I shouldn’t completely because we only met a few days ago, but something deep down makes me trust you blindly. You know what I mean?”
“Yes. I have the same feelings. I might know someone who can run the ranch for you. After we go out there today and see what is going on, I’ll let you know.”
“I’m going to run to the bathroom.” Grayson stood to accompany her as a guard. She frowned at him. “Alone, Grayson. Rovshan’s gone. I don’t need you following me into the bathroom.”
Grayson lowered himself back into the booth. His jaw was clenched. Grayson didn’t like her going anywhere alone. Kara brought out his alpha-male side, and he wanted to keep her tied to his bed for the rest of her life. That way, he knew nothing would happen to her. He knew it wasn’t a sane way to think, but that was how Kara made him feel.
Kara had been gone too long. Glancing down at his watch, Grayson noticed it had been almost ten minutes. He rose from his seat, intending to find out what was taking so long, when the waitress came by with the check.
“Sir, can you help me with something?”
“What is it?” Grayson really wanted to go check and see what was taking Kara so long in the bathroom, but he was raised to be polite.
He followed the waitress to the side of the diner opposite the bathroom, and she pointed to a box high on a shelf.
“Can you grab that box down for me?”
Grayson grabbed the box and set it on the table next to her. When he went to turn, she stopped him.
“Can you hold on a few seconds? I need a couple things out, and then you can put it back up there.”
He ground his teeth. For the first time that he could remember, Grayson didn’t want to be a gentleman. The hairs on the back of his neck stood up, and he felt something wasn’t right. Just when he was about ready to bolt toward the bathroom, she spoke.
“I’m done.”
