“Come here,
sweetheart.”

Though it was
awkward in her tight dress, she wanted him so bad that she unzipped
her boots and pulled them off. Then she hiked up her skirt and
climbed across the console. She straddled his lap, resting on her
knees.

“This,” he
said; telling her that she had given him exactly what he was
looking for. His cold hands lifted her dress higher on her thighs,
until the stiff material was wrinkled around her waist.

The windows
were already so fogged up that no one would see her even if they
tried. The defroster was blasting air at the windshield, but it
couldn’t keep up with the heat they were generating together.
Skylar pried open her jacket and undid the small zipper on the side
of her dress. Then he scooped his hand inside and found her breast.
When he growled, it got all of her juices flowing.

Their kiss was
heated and his hand explored her body, until it found its way into
her panties. He worked his fingers over her, pressing all the right
buttons until he was slick with her love. He eased two fingers
inside of her, as his tongue stroked her on the outside, sharing
all of his passion with his mouth. She gyrated against his palm,
her release mounting quickly.

“I want you,”
she pleaded, not even a little bit embarrassed by how quickly she
was ready to orgasm.

Skylar clearly
approved. When she raised onto her knees, he tugged open his fly
and jerked down his pants. Then he grabbed onto the thin fabric of
her tights and ripped a hole right through the middle. Before she
could even respond in shock, he made a grab for her panties, yanked
them aside and slammed inside of her.

He brushed his
nose, softly over her cheek, in stark contrast to the hardness
pulsing inside her. “You’re so soft and warm.” Skylar took her
mouth, with gentle, intermittent kisses.

She found
herself forcing a harder, more demanding kiss on him, urgently
seeking her climax. She was on the brink of something surreal, when
Skylar grabbed onto her hips and began to work himself deeper.
Within seconds, she was riding him like her life depended on it,
thrusting him back against the seat. Her mouth crashed into his, as
frenzied as the pulse between her thighs, as she found a quick
release in the steamy car.

Skylar
groaned, as though he was having a hard time saving himself for the
big finish. Destiny gave him an intimate kiss, as she slowed the
pace, but continued to rock on him. Skylar’s hands were still
gripped firmly on her hips, motioning her body to do what he
liked.

Destiny pried
his hands off of her and wiggled her way into the driver seat. She
pulled off her leggings, that were now shredded, and her panties
came off in the process. Skylar watched intently, wondering what
she was doing, his glistening arousal more apparent than
before.

Then she
hinted for him to move over and she slipped beneath him. With one
pull on the right lever, Destiny had the passenger seat resting
flat into the backseat.

“Your turn.”
She had shocked herself with the rawness of her urgency. She needed
it again, just as badly as he did.

He didn’t ask
questions. He just came over top of her and slid back home. He
pressed deep, with his kiss just as profound. She wanted him to
move, to take her hard. But he just kissed her, gently, flexing his
love muscles inside her. If this wasn’t making love, then she
didn’t know what was.

“I’m sorry,
sweetheart. But I don’t have any protection with me.” His lips
brushed over hers and his hand skimmed inside her dress.

“Please,” she
begged, wriggling beneath him.

He slid back
and jabbed again inside of her. “It’s not that I don’t want to.
Trust me, love. I want nothing more.”

When his thumb
eased over her aroused nipple, she wished she could dip it in his
hot mouth. He wore a look of pain on his handsome face, as he
fought his body’s natural response to screw her to the seat. He was
being so responsible. So she would do the responsible thing and
ease his mind.

She leaned
forward and whispered in his ear. “I’m on birth control.” Then she
traced his earlobe with her tongue. “Now fuck me.”

Destiny hadn’t
known whether that would do it, but when she felt him growing
inside her, she figured that it had. She wrapped her legs around
him, and rested her feet on the dash. And when he started to move
again, his lips caressing her neck, his hands devouring her body,
she just knew their relationship had to last.

This wasn’t
something that she would ordinarily do, but with Skylar it was just
different. Sex in a car? Fine. Sex in a car, in a hospital parking
lot, without a condom. It wasn’t exactly the love story she planned
to share with her grandchildren someday, but she wanted to give
Skylar the world; even though hers felt a little off kilter at the
moment.

For years now,
she had been contemplating whether there was such a thing as true
love. She figured if she had followed the rules and played the
dating game, she would get there eventually. But she had grown
tired of those games, and she had started to wonder if an exchange
for companionship was the only way she could be happy.

In her heart
though, she had wanted it all, having always dreamt secretly of an
affair with true love, in hopes that something good would come
along. Something right. Someone real.

Someone like
Skylar.

CHAPTER
FOURTEEN

One month
later.

Skylar stalked
up the stairs to Destiny’s third floor apartment, taking two stairs
at a time. The hydro was out and she wasn’t answering her phone.
Something must have been wrong.
Not again.

Another
blizzard had taken them by surprise and the hydro company was
having difficulty getting service to all of its customers.
What
was with his luck lately?

After a matter
of days, Destiny had agreed that she would move up to his City and
give it a try. Give them a try. The thought of only seeing her on
the occasional weekend had been unbearable. He thought about her
every minute of every day he spent away from her.
That was
new.
And he wasn’t even sure he liked it very much.

He had helped
her find a vacant apartment and she had already found a job before
she even took the one-way trip to see him. On the day she moved
into her new place, the elevator was out and they had to take the
stairs. With Matty out of commission for an easy six months, if he
were to ever find a full recovery, Skylar was on his own.

Destiny had
family and friends who helped her load up at her old place, but
when she made it to his hometown, there was no one. Mid-day,
everyone else was at work. So he wrestled all of her furniture up
the stairs himself, with Destiny helping where she could.

They were
making memories.

Skylar pounded
on her door, his quick fists matching the beat of his thumping
heart. “Destiny. Open up.”

A chill
skipped over his skin, which he hoped was only from the lack of
heat in the building. While he waited quietly, listening by her
door, he remembered the day she explained how she was only on a
temporary placement. She had told him that at the end of her
probation she could decide whether she liked the job, and he knew
what she really meant was: did she like him.

There was no
sign of life on the other side of her door, while the darkness
hounded him to kick it open. He pounded on the door again, and it
was a warning that she had better open it up or it was coming down.
Then he heard a click and saw the knob start to jiggle. He took
what felt like his first breath in minutes, then he backed away
from the door and blew out a long breath.

As the door
opened, all breathing stopped, as her eyes seared into his. She was
wearing a silky red robe, that fell just below her ass and it was
tied tightly around her slim waist, hugging her curves like a soft
wave. As if that weren’t a visual treat alone, when she leisurely
untied that robe and let it fall off her shoulders and open, he had
to grab himself to adjust his swelling cock.

The halls were
dark, but light from the windows in her apartment lit her up like
an angelic silhouette. It was as though his fantasy was playing out
before his very eyes, until her neighbour stepped up beside
him.

“Everything
okay here, Miss?” When the old man realized how he had found
Destiny, his eyes popped open and he promptly turned away. “I am so
sorry. I didn’t know.” He couldn’t help but steal another glance
before Destiny could completely cover herself, and Skylar couldn’t
blame the guy. “Well, I see everything is just fine here. I was
heading home.”

Skylar
laughed, while Destiny wrapped herself with the dainty fabric. Then
she grabbed on to his shirt and tugged him inside, leaving the old
man standing there in the shadows.

“Don’t laugh,”
she said, completely mortified, as she slid the lock into place.
“Now I’m going to have every man in the building checking up on
me.”

Skylar laughed
again, then grew fiercely jealous at the thought, as he collected
her in his arms. “Why weren’t you answering my calls?”

“I guess I
left my phone on vibrate. Is it that time already?” She picked up
her phone and waited for the date to flash on the screen. “I wasn’t
expecting you for another hour.”

She placed the
phone on the table next to the couch and looked up at him. She
looked so small and innocent, but he knew she was a naughty girl
underneath all that pale blonde hair and baby soft skin. It was the
way she made him feel, in the psychological department, that
shocked him most.

“I needed to
know that you were okay.”

He wanted to
say things that he hadn’t ever said to another woman, other than
his mother. He had kept his mouth shut this long, for fear that
he’d scare her out of her wits and send her running back to her
hometown. But the urge to tell her was growing impatient and so was
he.

Destiny hadn’t
even come close to saying those words, keeping her love locked
down. But he knew there was something there and that he owned the
key. He needed only to ask for it, if he wanted her to let him
in.

Answering to
the other way she made him feel, he slid his hands over her silky
hips and skimmed them under her robe, where he clutched onto her
thighs and pulled her against him.

Destiny smiled
and bit into that soft full lip of hers. “I was just getting ready
for you.”

“Mmm. You were
thinking about me, were you?”

Destiny
smirked this time and it left his gut flipping its lid. “I may have
been.”

“Did you touch
yourself?”

She stepped
away from him and walked away, flaunting her long slim legs.
“Wouldn’t you like to know.”

Destiny loved
the way she could make this massive man squirm. Watching Skylar had
become one of her favorite past times. As she walked away, she felt
his eyes searing her backside. She stopped, to taunt him some more.
When she turned around to face him, her robe slipped off her
leg.

“Are you
coming in? Or are you just going to hang out at the door all
night?”

“All night? I
thought I was taking you out?”

Destiny
shrugged a shoulder and disappeared into her bedroom. “Or we can do
that.”

Skylar had
kicked off his boots and followed her into the bedroom within
seconds.

Destiny had
already dropped herself back onto the bed, and let loose the ties
on her robe. “If you’re ready for dinner, I can get dressed.” She
twirled the silky belt around her finger, and she knew exactly what
it was doing to him.

Skylar crossed
the floor and was on top of her before she could blink her eyes.
“Not a chance,” he growled, as he unwrapped her from her scanty
robe.

His lips
trailed across her chest and down her stomach. He caressed her body
with soft, wet kisses, skimming her core and locking onto her hips,
making her insides flutter.

“I love…” he
voiced, with pause. “…the way your body responds to me.”

Destiny’s eyes
burst open and she stared at the ceiling recognizing the depth in
his meaningful growl. She wasn’t thinking of the lust that had
always been there, coursing through her veins, but the emotions
that had gone along with it. Tiny white bumps crept across her
sweltering skin, while she wondered what he was thinking.

Hearing the
word love on his lips had made her heart shiver. She closed her
eyes, smiling, loving the way he obsessed over every inch of her
body. She couldn’t believe how many times she found herself using
the word love when it involved Skylar.

His groan sent
delicious vibrations through her, lighting every sense in her body
on fire. While she was naked, he was fully clothed and even that
raised her excitement level. Then his lips left her body and she
felt him covering her up again.
Ooh. He must have some other fun
idea planned
