thick and hard against me. I gasped as the elevator doors opened and a group of laughing people exited.
    Noah guided me forward and released me. I moved back to the corner as he pushed the button to close the doors. He wasn’t about to allow anyone the chance to try catch this elevator. When he turned, he looked like a lion stalking his prey. He took two strides toward me and crashed his lips onto mine. He consumed me with his kiss, as he ran his tongue along my bottom lip before gently tugging at it with his teeth: “Open for me.”
    I parted my lips, giving him permission to take what was his, and he did. Our kiss deepened and heated quickly. He firmly held my arms in place at my side, and I found myself wrapping my right leg around him, pulling his body closer to mine. A soft moan escaped my throat as I started to rub against him.
    The sound of a gentleman clearing his throat quickly got our attention, and Noah stepped away, buttoning his jacket in an attempt to cover his very prominent arousal. Blushing, I quickly smoothed down my dress as Noah turned toward the older man with a smirk. “Please forgive me. I can’t seem to control myself when I’m confined to small spaces with my wife.”
    Noah escorted me out of the elevator, appearing in control, always in control, and nodded his head to the man as we passed. When the elevator door closed, I burst out laughing. “I can’t believe you said that to him.”
    “What did you expect?” Noah quickly scooped me up over his shoulder as if he were a caveman and headed toward our room. “Can’t fault a guy for being honest, and right now I need to know what’s under this dress.”
    I gave him a swat on his firm ass, which was now clearly in my view. “How are you able to hold it together with a straight face like that? Law school definitely taught you how to act proper, when I know deep down you are anything but.”
    He smacked my ass in return. “We both know you enjoyed it as much as I did, and I must say you did a great job of keeping your cool until the doors closed.” We arrived at our room, and the damned key card wouldn’t work. What I wouldn’t give for a good old-fashioned key. The blood was starting to rush to my head, and I needed him to put me down.
    Finally, on the third try, the green light flickered and Noah pushed through the door like he was the Incredible Hulk and tossed me onto the bed. I was in a fit of giggles until I looked up and saw my husband untying his tie with a look of pure hunger in his eyes. Suddenly frozen in place, I watched him undress slowly. He unbuttoned his shirt one button at a time, and I swear a pot of water would have boiled faster than this . . . but I was not about to look away.
    My husband was tall, well built, sexy as hell, and all mine. Now standing in just his boxer shorts, he leaned down, grabbing my left foot and feathering kisses on the top as he carefully removed my shoe. “The things you do to me, Victoria,” he said before he repeated his actions on my other foot, never breaking eye contact.
    Desire burned deeper in his eyes as I felt his hands begin to run up the inside of my legs. “You’re pure temptation.” My skin started to tingle as his fingers glided up higher and higher until he reached the apex of my thighs and a ragged breath left his lips.
    His eyes darted down to where the skirt of my dress was now pushed up, and, before I could process what was happening, he swiftly found the zipper and proceeded to slide the dress off me before discarding it on the floor.
    “Fuck, you’re beautiful,” he growled. The look on his face was savage as he regarded the small black lace panties I was wearing. They had threads of silver woven into them and barely covered me. He bent down and ran his fingers, and then his tongue, along the waistband. As he looked up at me with fiery eyes, I suddenly felt the warmth of his breath dance across my skin. “You’re sexy as sin, and you have no idea what I want to
