“Oh, God,” he grunted before his warm body dropped on mine.

We lay there, our hearts rapidly pounding, as his grip around me tightened. Pulling out, he rolled over and lay there for a moment with his hand on his chest. With a slight turn of his head, the corners of his mouth curved upward as I stared at him.

“That was incredible,” he spoke.

“Yeah, it was.” I smiled.

He climbed off the bed, removed the condom, and held it up.

“There’s a trashcan in the bathroom,” I said as I climbed out of bed and slipped on my robe.

He walked back into the bedroom and grabbed his clothes from the floor.

“I should get going. I have an early meeting tomorrow.”

“Yeah, and I have to be up early and get working on the books for Sterling Capital.”

When he was fully dressed, and I walked him to the door, he placed his hand on my cheek.

“I had a great time tonight.” He smiled.

“Yeah. It wasn’t so bad. I’d thank you for dinner, but you didn’t pay for it.” I smirked.

“But you can thank me for the multiple orgasms.” His lips softly met mine.

“Thank you. Too bad I won’t remember it in the morning, being drunk and all.”

“Trust me. You won’t be forgetting this night anytime soon. I’ll talk to you tomorrow.” He opened the door and stepped out.

“You mean you’re actually going to call me?”

“Maybe I will.” He winked and walked away.

Shutting the door, I leaned my forehead against it and let out a breath. My body was still trembling as I stood there and shook my head. I’d only been in Los Angeles for two days, and I’d already slept with a guy. But he wasn’t just any ordinary guy, and tonight proved that. Shit. Shit. Shit.

CHAPTER 12

Carter

I would have stayed if I hadn’t had that early meeting in the morning. I wanted to hold her and feel her warm body wrapped against mine as I drifted off to sleep. She was just as incredible as I knew she’d be. By the time I arrived home, it was eleven o’clock. My phone pinged with a text message from Gabriel, telling me that he and Grayson were on his patio and to come out.

Grabbing a beer from the fridge, I twisted off the cap, opened the sliding door, and walked over to Gabriel’s.

“We heard you pull up.” Grayson smiled.

“How did your date go?” Gabriel asked as I sat down in the lounger next to him.

“It went good. I slept with her.”

“Duh.” Grayson smirked. “Why didn’t you stay?”

“I have an early meeting in the morning.” I tipped the bottle to my lips. “Why are you two out here so late on a work night?”

“Tomorrow is my day off. Besides, we were waiting for your ass to get home so we can interrogate you.” A smirk crossed his lips.

“We were giving you until eleven thirty,” Gabriel said.

After shooting the shit for a while, I finished my beer and stood up. “Good night, my brothers. I’ll talk to you tomorrow.”
