“Well, sometimes even CenSecs need someone to help them.”
She stared at him in the mirror.
“Sometimes we all need someone,” he murmured.
She swallowed before looking away. She turned on the scope and set to work healing his back. In seconds, the soreness faded away.
Leaving them standing there, staring at each other.
“Are you hungry?” he asked.
She licked her lips. “Yes. But not for food.”
Damn. Every muscle in his body was rock solid.
He spun. She leaped at him.
They were all over each other. Axton hitched his hands under that damn shirt, sliding them up to cup the bare cheeks of her tight ass. Her mouth attacked his, her tongue sliding in. Then he was urging her up, and she wrapped her legs around his hips.
She dragged her mouth off his and pressed her lips to his neck, licking his skin. “I don’t know how to do this. Usually, I know exactly what I’m doing.”
There she was. His straight-talking CenSec. There’d never be any pretense with Xenia. He set her on the marble vanity andpressed between her open legs. He cradled her face, forced her gaze to meet his. “Trust me?”
She hesitated…then nodded.
“Trust me to take care of you,” he murmured. “To make it good for you.”
“I want this to be good for both of us.”
He managed a strangled laugh. “Baby, believe me, it’ll be good for both of us. Just follow my lead.”
Her eyes glinted. “I can do that.”
He didn’t have to ask about birth control. Their cyborg systems protected them from pregnancy and disease. He took her mouth again. By the Creator, the taste of her was enough to blow his mind. He tried to keep it slow this time, unhurried, but the fire between them was too hot, and soon they were clutching at each other, hands stroking, tongues dueling.
Shit. He had to find some semblance of control. He wanted this to be beyond good for her. She might have had sex before, but this was her true first time. The first time she wanted it, that she’d find pleasure.
He scooped her up and strode into his bedroom.
“Nice,” she murmured.
His large bed was covered in a midnight-blue cover and sat on a small, raised platform. The glass windows gave a beautiful view of the glittering lights of the city and directly above the bed was a skylight, showering the room in a shimmer of moonlight.
Axton didn’t turn on any lights. He laid Xenia back on the bed and starting undoing her buttons. “You look good in my shirt.”
“You look good in a towel.”
He saw her gaze stroking over his chest. As he worked the buttons free, his fingers grazed her flesh, making her breath hitch.
Then he flicked the shirt open.
He already knew she was built long and lean. Now, he saw her full breasts topped with dusky-pink nipples. Perfect.
She shifted. “I…have a lot of enhancements.”
He blinked and the silver implants he hadn’t noticed came into focus. Two rested on her collarbones, one above each breast. Two more shallow, silver semi-circles rested on her muscled stomach on either side of her belly button.
He touched the implant above her left breast. She sucked in a breath, watching him intently.
