She turned to him with wide eyes. Her chest was rising and falling fast. Dressed in a dark shirt and skin-tight jeans, she made his heart race. He shifted to put his body in front of the ladder and held his hand out.
“I’ll take that.”
“Thanks,” she breathed.
She handed him the box, and he set it down on the floor. She turned on the ladder, facing him, and stepped down the few rungs until she was trapped in his arms. He bit back a groan at the feeling of her breasts pushing into his chest.
“Wouldn’t want you to hurt yourself,” he murmured. His cock strained against his jeans. He wasn’t ashamed of how his body reacted to hers.
She smiled and tilted her head back.
“Always protecting me.” She chuckled. Her face was relaxed and her smile genuine.
He released the ladder and slid his arms around her. Ever since she’d run from his truck, she’d filled his thoughts and dreams. He couldn’t ever remember being this infatuated with a woman before.
“Seems like I’m always around when you need me,” he whispered, drawing her close.
She leaned into his arms as he lowered his head to hers.
Damn talking to her.
A kiss could say so much more.
He crushed his mouth to hers, which immediately opened for him. He slid his tongue between her soft lips, and the taste of her exploded on it. She was just as sweet as her name implied. Thoughts of licking her slick folds had a growl ripping from his chest.
It hadn’t been his intention to touch her, but he couldn’t control his hands.
A moan slipped from her, and it fueled his desire for her. Her hands trailed up his chest, and her fingers disappeared in the hair on the nape of his neck. Her large breasts were crushed against his chest, and he knew one thing.
He wanted more.
Dallas slid his hand down to her ass and gripped it. He angled his head to deepen the kiss. He loved how her ass filled his large hands. He pulled her closer, pressing his length into her belly.
He needed the woman in his arms and he would have her.
“Dallas.” Candi drew back, breathing hard. Her large brown eyes stared up at him. Her lips were swollen from his kiss.
He leaned his head down and rested his forehead on hers. “Yeah, Candi?”
“I don’t know what we’re doing, but I do have to tell you that I’m complicated.”
He chuckled and gathered her close. Little did she know, he was, too.
“Hell, I am, too.”
“So what is this between us?” she asked, stepping away.
He shook his head, unsure himself. “I don’t know, but there is one thing Idoknow, Candi.” He paused, lifted his head, and stared down into her eyes.
Her lips curled up into a soft smile.
“And what is that?” she whispered.
The trust in her eyes was almost enough to bring him to his knees. Panic settled in, heavy on his chest from that blind trust. It was almost like an elephant had decided to use his chest as a chair.
He swallowed hard and dragged air into his lungs.
The last time someone had put their trust in him, he’d failed. He brushed that aside. Candi wasn’t a soldier putting her life in his hands. She wasn’t a team of men being led into a desert full of enemies set on annihilating them.
