her neck. Shivers went through her and awakened what had been asleep for so long. He glided his hands underneath her sweater, causing goose bumps that followed the trail of his cool fingers. He let the material slide from her shoulders and onto the ground. She closed her eyes and pushed all thought out of her mind. She wouldn’t think of Red or she would ruin it.
    “Rougher,” Catori murmured, leaning down and sinking her teeth into his bicep. His skin was taut and it felt so nice to have something to bite into, surrendering to her basic urges. Josh had rested his right arm onto the door and his large muscle had been an easy target. She inhaled his scent, loving the fresh ocean fragrance that seemed to adhere to his skin. She ran her tongue over the indentions and only afterward turned her head to meet his sensual green eyes. “You know how I like it after last night.”
    Josh didn’t hesitate as he leaned down and hoisted her legs over his waist. She was wearing cut-off denim shorts as well, probably a little shorter than was appropriate for her age. She wore them out of necessity for the heat and no other reason. She didn’t care what people thought of her body, although she kept herself in excellent shape. She knew her figure was too muscular for some, but being a Marine had taught her to keep healthy and stay fit more out of habit. It was a hard pattern to break. Josh didn’t seem to mind her physique if the bulge in his jean shorts was any indication.
    Keeping his hands underneath her ass, Josh walked both of them over to the couch and sat down. She straddled him with her legs, placing her knees on either side of him. Seeing as her sweater lay on the floor by the door, the only thing left on her upper body was her faded gray T-shirt, which sported the Marines’ motto of Semper Fi in cracked black lettering. She quickly drew it over her head, freeing her congenitally bronzed breasts. She detested bras, and whenever she could get away without wearing one she did. Red preferred…she threw him out of her thoughts.
    The palms of Josh’s hands circled her ample flesh, roughly massaging her globes and causing her copper nipples to harden. Catori soaked in the physical pleasure of his callused fingers. The way she was sitting on his lap, all he had to do was lean forward to take the darkened flesh into his mouth. The searing heat caused her head to lie back against her shoulders. When his bright white teeth bit down on the sensitive nub she cried out at the sheer intense pleasure.
    “Yes,” Catori hissed, sliding her fingers through his hair and holding tight. She cradled him closer, wanting to feel something…anything other than what had been consuming her. “More.”
    Josh pushed her off of him, tackling the button and zipper on her denim shorts. When they fell to her ankles along with her panties from his prying fingers’ insistence, he followed suit with his shorts and slid off of the couch and onto the floor. He made sure he was situated between her legs. A foot on either side of his thighs allowed him entry to her molten core.
    Catori once again sank her fingers into his hair and held tight as his mouth sealed over her clit. A severe wave of pleasure washed over her and she had to lock her knees in place so that she didn’t collapse as she thrust herself against his mouth. His tongue swirled around her clitoris and flicked lightly, causing her arousal to spike even higher. She needed more and increased her grip on his hair, telling him so.
    Josh ran his hands none too gently up her legs, leaving a tingling sensation in his wake. He cupped her ass cheeks and pulled her tighter to him, his tongue pressing harder on her swelling nub. Finally he brought his arm back around the front of her and using what she thought was his middle finger, slid it between her wet folds. His touch was too soft for what she needed.
    “More,” Catori muttered, surging herself against his mouth. He added an additional finger to her
