The Best Of Blaze - Six Sexy Romances. Jo Leigh

scraped his teeth over her and she almost came right then, but he lifted his head and smiled up her body at her. It was becoming clear that Jason was the kind of lover who wanted to draw out the experience.

      She gripped his shoulders as he teased her with his mouth and then she tunneled her fingers through his hair, holding him closer as she lifted her hips. He moaned against her and the sound tickled her clit and sent chills racing through her body.

      One hand traced the opening of her body. Those large deft fingers made it impossible to stay still. Her breasts felt full and her nipples were tight as he pushed just the tip of his finger inside of her.

      The first ripples of her orgasm started to pulse through her, but he pulled back again, lifting his head and moving down her body, nibbling at the flesh of her legs. She was aching for him.

      “Jason...”

      “Yes?” he asked, lightly stroking her lower belly and then moving both hands to cup her breasts.

      “I need more.”

      “You will get it,” he said.

      “Now.”

      He shook his head. “That’s not the way to get what you want. I’m in charge this afternoon, Molly.”

      She was shivering with the need to come and wanted his big body moving over hers. Wanted his cock inside of her. She reached between them and stroked him through his pants, then slowly lowered the tab of the zipper. He caught her wrist and raised her hand above her head.

      “That’s not what I had in mind,” she said.

      He lowered his body over hers so the muscled hardness of his chest brushed her breasts. Then, his thigh was between her legs, moving slowly against her engorged flesh, and she wanted to cry out as everything in her tightened just a little bit more.

      She writhed against him, but he just slowed his touch so that the sensations were even more intense than before. He shifted again and she felt the warmth of his breath against her clit. She opened her eyes to look down at him and this time she knew she saw something different. But she couldn’t process it because his mouth was on her.

      He plunged a finger deep inside her at the same time and she moaned his name. The first wave of orgasm rolled through her body.

      Her hips jerked forward. She felt the moisture between her legs and his finger pushing hard against her G-spot. She was shivering and her entire body was convulsing, but he didn’t lift his head. He kept sucking and driving her harder and harder until she came again, screaming with her orgasm as stars danced behind her eyelids.

      Pleasure overcame her. It was more than she could process and she had to close her eyes. She reached for Jason, needing some sort of comfort after that storm of pleasure, but he was gone.

      She was still shivering and her pulse was racing as she opened her eyes and found him staring right into them and leaning back. She reached for his zipper and freed him. Took him into her hands and then drew him forward as she parted her legs.

      “Damn. I don’t have a condom.”

      “I’m on the pill,” she said. The words were raw, needy and husky.

      He shifted his hips and plunged deep into the heart of her. She wrapped her legs and arms around him. Held on as tightly as she could. Hoped he’d never realize just how much she wanted him. And not just for the afternoon...

      FIVE WEEKS PASSED quickly on the ranch after their afternoon of hot sex. Keeping busy, Jason and Molly hadn’t seen much of each other, except when they needed to discuss business. Jason was working with Jeb and Andy, the ranch hand that Jeb had assigned to him. The land had been cleared and next week they’d hear about their bid. Dennis had been tight-lipped about it. But Lynn, who was the director of Axiom Space Systems—the defense subcontractor Ace had met in San Diego whom they’d decided to partner with—said that was normal. Her people thought their bid was strong and that they would be awarded the contract. But there was no way to know until next week.

      Jason had been working out and eating more healthy than he normally did, but his body had to be in the best shape possible for the medical evaluation that was scheduled in another six weeks. Three months had seemed like an eternity originally, but it was flying by. Well, the days were. The nights were long. Plagued with dreams of Molly and those damned long legs of hers. He woke up hard and sweating every night. He knew all he had to do was walk down the hall and knock on her door...but he was afraid of what her reaction to be.

      And he wasn’t sure what scared him more, the possibility of her turning him away or inviting him in.

      She’d changed him. Woken something that he’d never realized was inside of him. And for the first time in his life he was conflicted about NASA. He’d never been afraid of anything before, but now he wasn’t sure. He didn’t know if he wanted to go back to space, to leave her for eighteen months. He was starting to think of himself as Jason again, not Ace. So he’d stayed in his own bed, fire burning inside of him each night, making him hungrier for her each day.

      “There’s a call for you on the ranch phone,” Andy said as he bounced to a stop next to him on the Mule. The Mule was an all-terrain vehicle similar to the one Mick had been driving when he’d had his accident.

      “Can I call them back?” Jason asked. “It’s going to take a while for me to return to the house.”

      “No. It’s urgent. That’s why I’m here. I’ll take care of your horse. You take the Mule.”

      Andy got out of the ATV and Jason got in. He drove it expertly across the bumpy ground. It wasn’t that different from some of the training he’d done at NASA for maneuvering vehicles on foreign surfaces. This was one of part of the program that the ranch was going to develop to get astronauts ready for Mars.

      If the call was urgent...well, he’d better get there as quickly as he could. He drove past the barn where he normally would have parked the Mule and pulled up to the house.

      He hopped out of the vehicle and bounded up the steps.

      Molly and Rina stopped talking as he entered the kitchen. Molly had her hair up and he flashed back to when he’d kissed her neck. That sweet spot where her pulse had been beating so strongly. She wasn’t wearing any makeup, but her lips looked full and her mouth so...addicting. He was going to crack, unable to resist the lure of Molly much longer.

      The worst part was that she wasn’t doing anything. She was just being friendly...

      “I have a call?”

      “Yes. It’s Dennis Lock. He said it was urgent,” she said. “You can take it on the extension in the den.”

      “Thanks,” he said, walking past both women down the hall to Mick’s den. As he entered he realized the room was slowly becoming Molly’s. There were little touches that hadn’t been there when it had been Mick’s domain.

      Things like a scented candle on the credenza. And the pile of papers that had always been stacked precariously on the edge of the desk had been cleared off. A framed picture of Molly and Mick had taken its place.

      Jason wiped his hands on his jeans before leaning on the desk and lifting the handset.

      “McCoy here.”

      “Ace. Took long enough. One thing we have to do once you win the bid is get a cell tower put in. It feels like the dark ages when I have to call a landline.”

      Jason smiled to himself, suppressing a chuckle. “It is a different world out here.”

      “I bet. I have two pieces of news. The decision has been made for the facility and my sources said I’ll be happy. You should hear something informal today. I’d call Lynn.”

      “Will do, sir. What’s the other news?” he asked.

      “I
