“No.”
“It can be your turn next time to be in charge.”
My mind was already ticking over with ideas of what we could do.
I did what I was told and leaned on the end of the bed. Ryan’s reflection in the mirror across the room showed him standing behind me as I bent over. I was incredibly vulnerable, and yet I felt safe.
Ryan moved closer and pressed his cock against my opening, and then plunged in. It took my breath away to be filled by him so completely, and then he withdrew and plunged again.
“Oh God, Ryan. Don’t stop. Don’t ever stop.” I braced myself against the bed as he pounded me and loved each moment. I wanted him to explode and fill every part of me. My feet were almost leaving the floor with each thrust, and I still wanted more.
He withdrew. “Kneel,” Ryan ordered, and I moved so I was kneeling halfway up the bed and he climbed on behind me.
Again, he thrust into me as he bent over my back and his hand came around to touch my clit. The sensations started to build again and this time he joined me as we both yelled our release.
I loved hearing him groan as he shuddered his seed into me. Our breath slowed with our movements until I reclaimed a sense of normality. To be honest, I had a feeling I would never be the same again after that. Then the two of us collapsed onto our sides, still joined together. I had never felt so connected to someone in my life.
Ryan eased out of me but ran his fingers up and down my side and kissed the back of my neck. “I’ll run a bath for us in a minute. For now, I want you to know something.”
I swallowed. What was he going to say? How would I deal with it if he said he cared? I didn’t want to ruin what we had.
“I know your friends worry about you. I promise I will never hurt you, Autumn.”
I turned to look at him.
“Thank you.” I wanted to say, ‘I think I might be falling in love with you, Ryan,’ but I didn’t. He had given me so much more confidence, but that little voice inside me still feared rejection.
SIXTEEN
Ryan
Bluey was going to howl when Autumn returned to the United Kingdom. I might join in too. I could see the both of us out the back paddock howling at the moon.
From the minute I saw her in the lobby today, I wanted to get my hands all over her. I had been worried that talking with Grant and his partner might have changed her mind about me. From the kiss she gave me when we met, I was pretty sure I was still in her good books.
When I’d walked into the room, Grant had stood to shake my hand.
I wanted to say, ‘You’ve no problem, mate. I know when something amazing has come into my life, and I’m not going to mess with it.’ But I couldn’t say that out loud. I had a deal with Autumn—it was just for the year. Nothing else had been promised.
Fuck. Why had I agreed to that?
You are a carpenter, and she is a doctor. You’ve fucked up when you’ve tried a serious relationship in the past.
Who would want to take me on anyway, with my family and all my shit? Keep it simple.
Truth was, nothing was ever simple.
Grant had chilled a bit as the evening went on, but I just wanted Autumn alone so I could show her how much she affected me.
Once we were back in our room, I had needed her, and I’d let her know. A part of me had expected her to say, ‘get fucked’. She wasn’t used to someone telling her what she should do. She hadn’t, and damn but it made me admire her beyond anything I had felt before. The more I asked, the more she gave. As we had lain next to each other, I had just wanted to enjoy the moment. I had always lived each connection with a woman in the past on a day-to-day basis.
Maybe I should do the same now.
That was bullshit—I didn’t want day-to-day with her. I wanted forever, and she hadn’t asked for that.

I had never walked the Sydney Harbor Bridge before, but I had a good head for heights and would be fine. Autumn would kill me if I chucked her over my shoulder, so I needed to get her through this. After all, it was my fault she was doing the damn thing.
