Evelyn woke up to the morning sunshine streaming into her room. Last night had been different. She couldn't put a finger on it but the way Roman had held her, the way he had kissed her... it hadn't felt as detached as it had been since the day she had walked out on him.
Maybe he was making an effort to keep her here. Maybe he really wanted to give it a go. He knew how she felt about him but he was still willing to change things just for her. He'd given her an out in the contract to make her feel differently about her situation like maybe he did care how she felt.
She tried to smother the flutter of hope in her chest but failed. A smile formed on her face as she yawned and stretched, and then she froze when she bumped into the warm, hard body next to her.
She sucked in a breath when she looked up and met the dark blue gaze.
He was still here.
The sun was shining and he was still in her bed.
"Morning," he said.
His voice was husky from sleep. She'd never heard it like this and it shot a jolt of heat through her already thoroughly sated body.
"M... Morning," she answered.
She sounded breathless. She could never understand how Roman did this to her; why he was the only man to have ever done this to her.
"I have to get to work soon. Want to join me in the shower?"
Shower sex was not new. But shower sex when he was preparing to go? It felt like another huge leap in their arrangement. It felt like something someone did with their significant other.
"Yes," she answered.
Roman's lips met hers briefly before he pulled away and pushed the covers off their bodies.
A brief kiss. Like a morning kiss between lovers.
Her heart was hammering in her chest as she got off the bed. Roman stood naked at the foot of the bed, waiting for her. Proudly naked and his huge dick already stiff and twitching. He was insatiable, and that suited her just fine because she could never have enough of him either.
Roman reached for her hand and then turned to lead her to the bathroom. She greedily took in his body. The strong, muscular back, the narrowing at the waist, the muscular ass and the powerful thighs. Roman was truly a god among men, and she was the only one who got to do this with him.
Was she dreaming? She'd signed the contract now, so was this how it was going to be from now on?
Her head reminded her that she was supposed to now hand in her notice but she pushed that irritating voice out of the way.
Maybe they really could make a go of this.
He let go of her hand to start the shower going before he immediately rounded back to her. His lips were immediately demanding and urgent as his tongue begged entrance, which she granted straight away. And then there was nothing she could do but get swept up in the whirlwind of emotions.
Her chest pressed against him as she grabbed onto his hair to anchor herself, moaning into his mouth. Roman's hands found their way to her ass and gave her a little squeeze before he lifted her against him.
They had done this dance so many times that her body automatically did what he wanted. Her feet wrapped around him and the next thing she knew she was under the warm spray, pressed against the shower spray.
Roman's mouth only left hers when the need to breathe caught up with them. His lips trailed the side of her face, her neck, all the way down to one of her sensitive nipples.
"Roman..." She gasped.
How did he do this? Every part of her body became overly sensitive when he touched her and everything seemed connected to her core. It was an experience unlike anything she had ever known before.
When he palmed her sex she bucked against him, greedy for him. And when he started to use his fingers, she threw her head back and called his name. She could feel her body tightening, ready to explode as he gently circled her with his thumb.
