rest when I wrapped my arm around her waist and hauled her back. “That won’t be happening.”
    I trapped her on the mattress with my legs on either side of her torso and my cock between her breasts. With my hand fisted around my shaft, I dragged myself over her nipples, and those sweet little peaks perked up for me. A thin streak of fluid painted her skin. “You’re staying right there.”
    “You’re cute. This is really charming, the whole jerk off on my tits and brand me with your spunk routine,” she said, a disapproving look aimed at my dick. “But I have to work today, and you’re not on the short list of people from whom I take orders.”
    “You took plenty of orders from me last night,” I said. I kept stroking, slower now but much, much harder.
    “Will,” she sighed. “Seriously. I have appointments. My brothers are going to wonder where I am.”
    “Your brothers have already taken off for the weekend.” I pulled her hand away from twisting in her hair and placed it on my cock. She threw a sour scowl in my direction but immediately caressed me like she was trying to prove a point. “Yeah, I got the whole rundown from Matt last night,” I said, groaning. “You’re the only one punching in today, peanut.”
    I knew what I was doing when I tailed Shannon home and convinced her doorman I was one of her brothers last night, and I knew what I was doing right now.
    I wanted her all to myself.
    And this didn’t require analysis. I mean, fuck…after three years of near-continuous deployment, wasn’t I supposed to drown myself in pussy? It was probably listed in the Navy’s official Rest and Recuperation Policy as a suggested activity.
    Visiting loved ones, hunting and fishing, comfort food, consensual sex.
    But I couldn’t blame this on post-deployment horny anymore. The past three months hardly qualified, considering they were spent in the scorched Nevada desert, teaching a team of rookie SEALs how to survive the dry heat.
    This was—oh, hell, her fingers were fucking incredible—this was too complicated to figure out right now. My only priority was hidden somewhere between prolonging this as much as possible and exploding right this second . “I’m leaving for Montauk this afternoon. Come with me.”
    She stared at me, her brow furrowed and a frown pulling at her lips. “What? Why?”
    Her hand stilled, and I covered it with mine, urging her to continue.
    “I have a buddy who has a house there. He’s away for the weekend,” I added.
    I could handle her saying no, but I could also throw her over my shoulder and kidnap her. It wasn’t like her kicking and screaming didn’t turn me on.
    “Why?” she repeated. Our hands were moving together, fast and firm.
    “Don’t you ever want to disappear? Leave this all behind for a few days?”
    I didn’t know where those questions came from, but they were the right ones. She blinked at me twice, that fierce poker face dissolving, and I saw the same flash of vulnerability I’d seen months ago. Her eyes shifted to her phone—the one that didn’t stop vibrating and chiming all damn night—and her teeth sank into her bottom lip. There were instances when she dropped the bitch boss act, and even though the bitch boss was hot as hell, the real Shannon was addictive. I couldn’t get a taste of her like this without wanting it again.
    Something snapped inside me, and those hot, prickly sensations clawed their way down my spine. I couldn’t even choke out the words to tell her I was coming.
    Gripping her velvet-upholstered headboard for support, I groaned and panted until my eyes were capable of focusing again. I couldn’t look down yet. I couldn’t see my seed splashed over her creamy skin and not spend the rest of the day worshipping her sassy little ass.
    Shannon’s phone skittered across the bedside table, singing with alerts for a minute straight. Snatching it up, I keyed in her password and powered down the device. “You’re not turning
