You Might Just Get It Read Free Page B

burying himself within her. Her contractions milked him and he spurted hot and heavy. Eric felt as if he’d been thrust out of his body for one long, heavenly moment. It was almost as if Kate was the first real woman he’d ever made love to.
    Panting, spent, arms shaking, Eric tried to hold himself above her, but Kate pulled him to her chest.
    “ You won’t squish me,” she said with a smile. “I want to feel the weight of you.”
    So Eric lay across her, his face nestled in her soft, sweet-smelling hair, his fingers toying with her still erect nipple. She purred her approval.
    “ You better be careful,” she whispered. “I might make you do that all over again.”
    Eric chuckled. “You read my mind,” he said. “Give me fifteen minutes and we can continue this in the bedroom.”
    “ I was teasing.” Kate laughed.
    “ I’m serious,” replied Eric.
    Kate was silent for a moment as she stroked his back. “The perks of being with a younger man?” she asked.
    Eric lifted his head and kissed her lovely mouth. “The perks of being with me.”

    Kate drowsed against Eric’s chest. The water in the tub was still warm and she felt deliciously sated. What was that old saying? The third time is the charm? She wasn’t certain that the first and second times weren’t the charm too. Eric had wrapped one of his arms firmly about her waist while his other hand held her breast softly. She fit into his hand perfectly, as if made for him. Who knows? Maybe she was, at least for this one night of sensual bliss.
    “ Eric?” Kate’s voice was soft.
    “ Hmm?” He sounded sleepy.
    “ I should go back to my apartment.”
    “ Why?”
    “ Well, so you can…I don’t know, so you can do whatever it is you do.”
    She felt Eric’s chest shake beneath her back as he laughed.
    “ There’s nothing I’d rather do than this,” he replied. “With you. Stay tonight. Here, with me.”
    Kate turned her head and looked into his face. “Are you sure that’s what you want?”
    “ Have I seemed uncertain about what I want up to now?” He grinned at her.
    “ No, uh, you’ve seemed, quite certain.”
    “ Then stay.”
    “ On one condition.”
    “ What’s that?”
    “ I make breakfast. I make the best cowboy biscuits this side of the Mississippi.”
    Eric brushed her wayward curls from her face. “It’s a deal,” he said. “That will give us an opportunity to discuss a few other details.”
    Kate’s eyebrows flew up. “Like what?”
    “ Like, whose apartment we’re going to sleep in tomorrow night.”
    “ Oh.” Kate sputtered with laughter. “You plan on sleeping, do you?”
    “ God,” teased Eric. “I’ve unleashed a beast.”
    “ Be careful what you wish for,” Kate commented, a wry grin on her lovely face.
    “ Because I just might get it? That, lover, was my plan all along.”
