designed to pleasure them both. As he stroked long and deep, he could feel the orgasm
well up from his balls.
With mindless abandon, he gripped her hips and cried and roared his release as she
simultaneously cried out hers. He came long and hard, hauling her close, ramming
himself as far as he could into her tight opening, as he released and spilled himself into
her.
As the last of his spasms racked his body, Cooper felt himself return to normal. He
was stunned. Stunned and dazed. He pulled out of her and, with unsteady hands, laid
her down and settled her body in front of his. He drew her close and laid his head on
top of her head, and closed his eyes, slowly drifting off to sleep.

Chapter Nine
Bzzzzz. Bzzzzz.
The jarring sound of her alarm clock jolted Karina out of her pleasant dreams.
 Grrrr. What time is it? She groaned, and reached over and patted the table until
her hand made contact with the loud buzzer. She slammed it off and re-tucked her arm
inside the blankets, cozying down into the warmth of her covers.
 Come and lie a little closer. I m cold, a sleepy masculine voice asked, from close
behind her.
 Aahh! Karina yelped and shot straight up in bed, her locs flying as she grabbed
the blanket to cover her naked body. She felt as though her heart was leaping right out
of her chest.
 Baby, what s wrong? The alien, deep scratchy voice asked.
 Oh my Lord. It wasn t a dream, she frantically half whispered to herself as the
memories of the previous night crashed down on her.
She turned desperate eyes toward the man who lay sprawled on her bed, one sexy,
hairy leg on top of the blanket, the other was buried beneath the covers. As her glance
stole over him, she felt the tops of her ears burn when she saw his penis lying thick and
curved on the inside of his thigh.
And hard. Thick, curved and hard. She couldn t overlook the hard part. She felt
sweat break out on her forehead.
 Come back and lie down with me Kari, he asked huskily, the sleep in his voice
making it scratchy sounding. He opened his arms for her to come to him, and Karina
had to exercise serious willpower to resist the lure of those arms. He had the sexiest
arms.

She never realized a man s arms could be so sexy. His skin was smooth. And
although they were in the middle of winter, his tone was light olive, with a light
dusting of smooth hair on his forearms.
Not too much to scare her with images of Bigfoot. Just enough to turn her on. That
same sprinkling of hair was on his inner thigh. It lay so smooth and pretty on his thick
thighs&
 Karina, are you okay? he asked. He sat up in the bed, and leaned his big body
against the etched wood of her headboard.
 Um& yes, she barely got out. She cleared her throat. This was ridiculous.  Yes,
I m fine, Cooper. I better get up, it s already six, she said, gathering the blankets more
closely around her body.
 Are you shy now, Kari? he asked, and before she knew it, he d reached for her,
and laid her against his chest.
She started to protest but& this close to him, and it was over. Why fight it?
 Maybe a little, she admitted. It was so easy for her to talk to him. She felt as
though she d known him forever.
 Why? The question rumbled in his chest, and tickled the side of her face.
 I wonder, she laughed dryly.
He thought about what he d just said, and laughed with her.  I guess you re
entitled to be a little shy, he dragged out the word little.
 You think? she glanced over her shoulder at him, laughing again. He could feel
some of the tension ease away from her body.
 What are your plans for the day? he asked. It was Saturday, and if he were home,
he would be poring over the financial section of the morning paper in his office at
home.
He felt her snuggle closer to him before she answered.  I m going into Macy s
today. With Founder s Day coming up, I can get as many hours as I want, she said.

 You work there a lot? he smoothed his hands over her hair as he spoke.
 No. Susan is the only full-time clerk in the department. But whenever a holiday
comes up, they hire a few extra temps to help out. This is my first time. I can use the
money to help build my business.
 How long have you had your design business? He enjoyed hearing her speak,
and used the opportunity to learn more about her.
 It s been a little over a year now, she sighed.  It s going okay. A little rocky.
Yesterday I was darn near suicidal. I had a client decide to go with another designer. I
really needed the job too. He heard the despondent tone in her voice and was
surprised at the clinch he felt in his heart.
He had it bad.
 It s going to work out baby. Don t worry, he whispered and then laid his head
lightly on top of her hers.
 I know. It always does. One way or another, she whispered back, and uttered a
small laugh.
 Do we have time to grab something to eat before you have to go to work? Is there
a little café around here that you like? he asked, his hands lightly smoothing down her
body.
He loved how soft and feminine she felt. She was round in all the right places. He
liked a woman to feel like a woman. Nothing wrong with a woman who worked out,
kept her body tight and honed. But he d take softness to chiseled and cut muscles any
day. His hands eased down her breasts slowly as he spoke, cupping the full round
mounds in his hands. They were too large for him to contain, so the overflow of plump
tit lay on his forearm.
 Karina? Would you like to go and eat somewhere? he asked again when she
didn t answer.
 Umm hmmm, she murmured.

She was turned on.
That was the other thing he loved about her. She was so damn sexy and sensual,
and totally unaware of it herself. He could look at her, touch her, feel her up a little, and
she was turned on. He knew without touching her pretty little pussy that it was wet
and creamy. And ready.
He was on his way to find out just how wet she was when her phone rang.
With a groan, she turned around. He saw the regret in her eyes when she said,  I d
better get this.
He tried to hide his disappointment when she picked up the phone. He parted her
locs and buried his face in them, and took a deep breath. He loved the way her hair
smelled. Like warm vanilla and peppermint. Sweet and spicy, just like Karina.
 Hello, her voice was still husky from lack of use.  Oh. Hi Liza, nothing much.
What are you doing? She pulled slightly away from him and he noticed the rigidity
that invaded her once loose limbs.
 I m going to take a shower. I ll give you some privacy. We can decide on where to
eat after you get off the phone, he told her quietly, and reached over and kissed her.
He reluctantly released her and rose from the bed. Without bothering to put on his
jeans, he went into the bathroom and closed the door.

Karina watched him go and felt a pang in her heart. Damn. When he buried his face
in her hair, she almost wet herself. How the hell did he do that? Why was it that when
he smelled her it turned her on so much? He accepted and seemed to like everything
about her. From her loc d head to her thick thighs. And everything in between, she
thought with longing.
He hadn t bothered to put on clothes when he left the bathroom. He had the nicest
ass she d ever seen. So tight and muscled. Plump too. No flat cheeks on that man.

That was a total overgeneralization. People came in different shapes and sizes no
matter what race they were. And men came in all sizes and lengths, she d found out
over the last twelve hours to her utter delight. If Liza s husband was anything like [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
