Page 27 of Tempt Me-

She leans over and finds a packet.Ripping it open, she sits back and lowers the covering over my cock, her hands trembling with the same need coursing through me.

“This time you’re going to ride me,” I tell her.

Her eyes grow hazy with desire, and she lifts herself onto her knees and takes my cock in hand.Next thing I know, she is slowly lowering herself onto me, accepting my thickness into her slick body.She clasps me in heat, and I nearly come right there.

I hold on, though, needing her to come first.Always.I grit my teeth as she begins to move, gliding up and down, milking me for all I am worth.I grasp her hips, holding on and grinding her onto me with each downward pass.

She begins to make those sexy noises that tell me she is close, so I slip my finger over her clit, and she shudders, her inner walls contracting around me as she comes on a low moan of pleasure.My balls tighten, draw up, and just as before, her climax triggers mine.

I slam up and into her, taking her hard and fast.She calls out my name, a second orgasm crashing over her as I spill myself into her.

She falls over me, her body giving way, and she breathes heavily into my ear.I hold on to her, not ready to let go.But this time, after my trip to the bathroom, when I find her getting dressed, I force myself not to ask her to stay.I have Bailey to think about, the center of my life, who will not understand her daddy in bed with her nanny.Who doesn’t deserve to be confused by grown-up complications.

I let Mia slip away quietly, walking away without conversation or discussion, knowing that though I might sleep with her, I can’t ever let myself get attached.The good thing is, she obviously feels the same way.What I don’t understand is why that thought bothers me so damned much.

Chapter Six

Mia

Iwait forBailey to get out of school.I got to the parking lot early so I could get a decent parking spot and decide to wait in the car until it is almost time for the kids to be let out.I listen to music on the radio, my mind continually drifting back to my night with Austin.

Even when I’m not thinking about him, my body still hums with desire.He lit a fire in me I didn’t know existed.And though the next day we both acted like nothing happened, I know better.

So does he.

Over the last week, his gaze tracked me when he thought I wasn’t looking, and I am just as guilty, my gaze falling on him over Bailey’s head.If he turns around, I watch his tight, sexy ass.If he looks my way, I meet his knowing stare.Sunday night, I stayed locked in my room, not even coming out for my normal cup of tea.I didn’t want to fall into a nightly routine that could be detrimental to my heart and my peace of mind.Because Austin is a man I could easily fall for.

Unwilling to think about it any longer, I climb out of the car to wait for Bailey by the exit to the school.I smile at a few of the friendlier moms, and soon the bell rings, and the kids begin to flow out, the teachers of the younger children walking them to the doors.

I catch sight of Bailey’s dark hair and am just about to call the girl’s name when someone does it first.

“Bailey!”

I spin around in time to see the child’s mother waving toward her.

“No.”I push past a few parents to reach Bailey first, grasping her hand just as Kayla strides into our personal space.

“Bailey, baby, it’s Mommy!”

I freeze, holding Bailey’s hand tight.This is what Austin feared, Bailey being confronted by her mother, and neither Austin nor I know what the little girl remembers about her.

Bailey squeezes my fingers back, her little hand feeling fragile in my larger one.

“Bailey?”

“You need to leave,” I say to Kayla, keeping my voice level so as not to frighten Bailey even more.

Kayla looks nothing like the other moms in jeans, shirts, and jackets.Instead she wears a skimpy dress and high heels, as out of place in this environment as she is in her daughter’s life.

“I have a right to see my child.”

“Not according to the custody agreement I understand exists.”

Kayla perches her sunglasses on top of her head, her eyes not focused on Bailey but glaring at me.

“Bailey, honey?Don’t you remember me?”She isn’t even smart enough to drop down to Bailey’s level to try and reach her.

Bailey backs her body into mine, causing Kayla to frown as her daughter clearly makes her choice.A choice no child should have to make, between a caregiver and her mother.
