I Do the Boss (Managing the Bosses Series, #5)(10)

"You're far better than me, baby. You know that. These people skew the truth. Stephen won't get away with this. I'll call my attorneys tomorrow. He threw lies into that interview, Jamie. None of that is true." He cupped her face and lifted it toward his, leaning down and kissing her softly. "I love you with all my heart. You're everything to me. Stop focusing on everyone else."

"You're focusing on them too." She pressed her hands to his chest. "I'm heartbroken over everything that happened today, but I'm devastated by the things Stephen said."

"He's a liar and he's jealous. You know this." Alex slid his hands over her neck and pushed her robe from her shoulders, leaving her bare.

"I'm not sex-starved. I just enjoy it more than I should. I'll try and schedule something with a therapist." She covered her chest and glanced down, feeling more embarrassed than she should have.

"Don't you dare. I love you the way you are. You enjoying sex is something I adore." He touched the bottom of her chin and lifted her face. "Don't degrade yourself for another minute. Stephen means nothing, right? I'm your man, and you're soon to be my wife. The rest of these bastards can rot."

"Okay," she mumbled as a fresh wave of tears slid down her cheeks.

"No more crying, beautiful girl." He wiped her tears before pressing his warm mouth to the side of her neck.

Slowly she loosened up and slid her hands over his shoulders, pressing herself to the front of him.

"There you go. Let me in," he whispered against her ear. "Forgive me for being an idiot and not seeing your pain today."

"I don't want to talk about it anymore." She slid her fingers through his hair and clung to him.

He picked her up easily and walked them to the bedroom, setting her down in front of the bed and pressing at her shoulder. "Lie down and let me look at you. You're the best part of my day."

Jamie didn't speak, but crawled up on the bed and lay on her back, watching him undress as he watched her. The thick swell of his chest muscles caught her attention, and warmth rushed through her, budding her nipples and leaving her without a care in the world other than pleasing him.

"You look good enough to eat." He licked his lips before tugging his slacks off and crawling up on the bed to hover over her lower half.

"Then you should eat me." She smirked as he chuckled.

"Fuck, I love you." He slid his hands up her thighs and nudged her legs open before leaning down and pressing a soft kiss to her sex. "I plan to, just in case you were wondering. No more thinking tonight. Just open up and let's enjoy each other."

"I want that." She lifted her hands above her head and opened her legs for him. The growl that left him shot tendrils of pleasure racing through her. A biting gasp left her as he pressed his mouth to her center, kissing and licking at her slowly at first, but quickly gaining speed as if he were starving.

"So beautiful, Jamie. Moan for me." His fingers slid deep into her as he pressed his mouth back to her.

She arched her back and closed her eyes, letting herself be dragged into the heart of his attack. It was passionate and filled with the kind of love that had the power to heal her for good. After all those years of not being good enough, Alex Reid was going to ensure that she was well taken care of and adored in the process.

She slid her fingers into his hair as tears blurred her vision and her first orgasm spread across her, wracking her with an intensity she hadn't felt for some time. His deep grunts accompanied his lapping at her, leaving her soaring high.

"More," he whispered against her wet flesh and glanced up as he sucked her clit into his mouth.

"Oh f*ck," Jamie mumbled as she dropped her head back and lifted her hips, needing more of him.

He gave it to her. His assault was beyond intimate as he touched every part of her and worked her over the edge again before crawling up her body and resting on his knees as he watched her.

Strong hands ran up her waist and palmed her breasts as she twitched from residual pleasure. She glanced up at him, enjoying far too much the demanding look on his perfect face.

"Nothing matters but this right here. Us." He ran on hand down the center of her body, fingers laying over the sharp curve of her breasts before sinking his thumb down into the wet curls between her thighs. "Let it all go and watch me make love to you."

"Please?" she whimpered as he took hold of himself and pressed into her. Nothing else mattered but him joining his body with hers. She needed his closeness, the intimacy of their sex, to revive her spirit.

He leaned over and took a shaky breath as a cute smile played on his lips. "How is it that you feel better each time we do this? I swear you're a goddess."

"Hush." She wrapped her legs around him and pulled him down to lay flush on her. "I wanna taste you, Alex."

"Mmmm... tomorrow at the office. Come get under my desk and make me uncomfortable, like I'm breaking all the rules just for you." He smiled and leaned down, kissing her as she chuckled. "No? Come on, baby. Be dirty for me."

"Dirty?" She pressed her heel into the bed and forced them to roll over, trapping him beneath her before sitting up and pressing back on the thickness of his cock.

Their groans filled the air around her as she rocked against him, taking in more and more until her ass rested on his thighs.
