“Both.”
My eyebrows rose quickly on my forehead in response because I never would have expected her to admit that.
“Is that why I woke up to find you in my arms this morning?”I asked, knowing I was pressing my luck with her.
She looked away briefly as a blush stained her cheeks before catching my eyes.
“Maybe.”She shrugged.“I guess we could also say that having me in your arms was why you woke up with an erection.”
It was my turn to blush as heat flamed my skin as I laid everything out in the open.
“I have a feeling it would have happened even if you weren’t in my arms,” I admitted.“It’s been a long time since I’ve shared a bed with a woman.”
“Aww, that’s so cute,” she said, holding her hand to her chest as she looked at me.“Did it feel like going back to your teen years?”
I knew she was just giving me shit because that’s what she did best.I walked over, closing the distance between us as I stood in front of her.She sucked in a breath as she looked up at me, her chest rising and falling heavily as if my closeness had an effect on her.I really hoped it did.
“No, it had nothing to do with sharing a bed with a woman, Jo.It was because I was sharing a bed withyou.”
I licked my lips, noticing the way her eyes trailed my every movement.
“I could stand here and lie to you while pretending you don’t affect me, but I won’t.I respect you too much to do that.So, yeah, sharing a bed with you while having your body pressed against mine made me hard.But I won’t fucking apologize for it, Jo.If sharing a bed is going to be a problem, let me know, and I’ll make other arrangements.”
I took a step back, giving both of us room to breathe.
She shook her head, not saying anything, so it was hard to know what she was shaking her head about.Before I could say anything more, she crossed the space between us and wrapped her arms around my neck as she pressed her lips to mine.

Jo
Feeling Dom’s lipspressed against mine sent a rush of heat through my body, but it was the moment his hands slid down my waist and brushed my ass that had it humming with need.I parted my lips, deepening the kiss as he allowed my tongue to explore his mouth.A soft whimper escaped my lips as his hands grabbed my ass and pulled me closer to him, the hard thickness of his cock pressing against me.
Knowing that nothing good could come of this, I stepped back and wiped the corners of my lips as I looked at Dom.His eyes were dark with arousal as he licked his lips, tasting me after that kiss.We stood there for a few seconds, neither saying anything as I struggled to process what had just happened.
Dom hadn’t been there for more than a day, and I had already kissed him.
