Chapter 15
[Annora)
My week is going by at a snail’s pace. I spent Sunday with a very moody Grace. I spent most of the day cleaning. To give me time to figure out how to talk to her about Kyle’s custody suit. 1 chickened out on Saturday night. I was angry with mysell for even putting us in this situation
Had I known what Kyle was like before 1 marned him, I would have walked away in heartbeat. I thought if we got married, I would give Grave a more stable life. What I gave her was a father who secretly resented her for being another man’s child,
Quinn’s. The biological father I have never spoken to Grace about even though she knew Ky was not her fater. Kyle knew I had a child when we met. It was only after
we married he showed his resentment.
Now, here I am on a Wednesday afternoon, with a clear schedule. Now is a perfect time to talk to Quinn, but I don’t want to do it at the hospital. As I gather my courage to pick up the phone, a knock on my office door makes me look up.
“Come in,” I call out.
It was as if my thinking about him summoned him to my door Quinn valks into my office like he is on a mission. There is a storm brewing in his sea green eyes. One that I have seen before. It used to make my knees weak when he looked at me like that. This time is no different.
“What are you doing here?”
The sound of the lock clicking in place makes my heart rate skyrocket. Then he is beside my chair, pulling me to my feet. “I am doing what I have wanted to do since Saturday night.”
“Quinn, we are in my…”
He doesn’t let me finish my sentence. His mouth fuses to mine in a toe-curling kiss. Heat instantly pools in my belly. The kiss spins wildly out of control as he slips his tongue into my mouth Just like in the past, the fight for dominance is instant. The passion between us explodes as his hands roam my body.
Throwing caution to the wind, I reach my hands up to fit into his hair. The desire to have him right here in my office is all-consuming. I want him to sweep everything off my desk, lay me fat on my back, then have his way with me right hereT
Right now
“I thought nothing else but how close I came to having you naked in your kitchen.”
Then his mouth is back on mine. As he kisses me, one of his hands finds its way to the hem of my pencil skirt. A moan escapes my lips as he glides it up my outer thigh until he reaches the edge of my thigh highs. My skirt is being pulled up as his hand goes higher.
“I want you so bad, Annora.”
I have absolutely no idea what has come over me at this moment. What we are about to do in my office is so wrong, but I want this more than anything else right.
“Then take me.”
Quinn pulls back a fraction of an inch to look at me. “Are you sure?”
In reply, 1 pull his mouth back to mine, capturing his lips in a seating kiss. Quinn groans into my mouth as he Elts me up. I wrap my legs around his waist as he barboss toward the bookshelves along the back wall of office
When he has me firmly against the bookshelves, I make quick work of loosening his the. Soon, our clothes litter the floor as we ravage each other’s mouths. Quinn’s mouth maming over my exposed flesh ach article of clothing is removed. His hands softly stroke my flesh, causing me to shiver in anticipation.
Quinn spins the sound, causing me to laugh into his mouth. The sound of clattering makes me look over his shoulder. He swept my desk clean of everything that was on it. Holy**it, this was exactly what I wanted him to do. As he sits me down on my desk, I shiver as my a**makes contacts with the icy surface.
My head drops back as he kings and nibbles his way down my throat until he reaches my breasts. I gasp louder than intended the second his tongue flicks over my bare nipple. Then my body jerks as his other hand lands on my bare sex.
Quinn lets out a proal of approval before his fingers dip inside. “You are so wet for me I want to taste you again, Annie.”
Before I have time to realize what he intends to do, Quinn sinks to his knees, h**ks my legs over his shoulders, then fastens his mouth to my core. I moan loudly as he goes to work on my c**is. He slips two of his fingers deep inside me.
With one hand gripping my desk and the other buried in his hair, I throw my head back further as he ravages me with his tongue. “Oh, f**k, Quinn.”
“Moan my name, Annie.”

I give him what he wants as I feel my ***m sip through me. He continues to lick, pleasure tears from my throat, followed by his sale as he sends me over the edge for the third time. All I can hear is my panting as he stands to his feet. In the next instant, he has my leg wrapped around his waist as he looks down at me. Lust shines out of his eyes with something else mixed in with it
“Quinn, I need you now…”
After I speak those words, he slips inside me. Bliss fills me as he slowly slides deep. Drce he is buried to the hilt, he stops moving. The way he is breathing lets me
know he feels it too.
That earth-shattering connection we always shared
I open my eyes when both his warm hands up my face. “Look at me, Annie. I want to watch your eyes while I make love to you.”
“Oh, god, Quinn,” I moan as he moves. Slow, deep strokes.
Then there were no more words as he fused his mouth to mine. All lean focus on is his mouth on mine. The tender way he kisses me. emotion he feels for me into our kisses. His kisses m**e every moan that comes out of me as he makes love to me.

Every stroke of his hands over my body, each sinful thrust of his hard **k into my eur, makes me wish for this moment to last forever, I can feel my body tighten as I climb to the peak of pleasure. Quinn groans as I spasm around him.

“Open your eyes, Annie.”
My eyes fly open at his husky command. He leans up, braces both hands on the desk, then looks down at me. Those beautiful sea-green eyes of his are staring right Into my soul. I want to give this man everything he deserves and then some moer. To auke up for all the lost time we missed together.
“I want to watch your eyes as you c**m for me, Annie. Release all you have been holding back.”

At each word, he thrusts harder. Janing me against the desk. Oh, but how good it feel to have Quinn pound harder into me. I want to make him lose control and let go just as much as he is asking me to. I feel he is holding so much back.
“I will let go if you do.”
“That is for another inte, my love. I promise.”
The sound of that promise sends a thrill down my spine, making me quiver in anticipation. Something about the thought of the next time sends excitement through my bloodstream. I want this man any way I can get him. On all available surfaces. In any positions he puts me in, or I put him in
Oh, f**k, all my cratic dress of Quinn can now come to fruition.
stare into his eyes as he picks up speed. By the sounds my desk is making in protest they did not design it for this kind of activity. Both of his hands come up to cup my face as his pace returns to the slow and lazy. The love shining through his eyes is my undoing.
The**n that rips through me is the thing I have ever felt before. Not in the past, and certainly not since Quinn and I parted ways. I cry out his name before he Tuses his mouth back to mine. Then, a few strokes later, he follows me into the abyss of our shared pleasure.
With his fondhead resting on mine, these powerful arms wrapped around me like I am in a con, I feel I am home in his embrace. Something I haven’t felt in →[welve year. We were more than sex back then, and I can feel all that right below the surface.

“Yes, Quinn, I want that as much. There are things we need to talk about, though. Things you need to listen to.”

I nod my head when she looks back at me, then I follow her out of her office. She locks the door behind us. Placing my down the hall to the elevators. Silence filled the elevator as we rode down to the lobby
Annora gets with her hands as she avoids my pace. There are so many questioning through my mind about what she wants to tell me. How had can it be to

Both thoughts cause anger to **e though me. To think of her at the mercy of some predator makes me see red. Knowing that there was no way for me to prevent it from happening causes me to feel unbearable sadness for her.
The ride to my penthouse was tense as neither of us spoke a word. Derad settles over me as I pull into the galage. When I open her door, she looks up at me, startled, but the places her hand in mine without hesitation. That makes me feel slightly better about what is coming.
“I want to try something before we get upstairs. There is nothing you can say that will make me change my mind. I want you, Annie. We can figure out whatever

She hsks away for a moment, then back at me. Tears spill down her cheeks before she speaks. “I really hope you mean that,

“Then what is it?
“The child that I gave birth to isn’t a product of rape. I conceived her in love.”
That was a punch in the gut. She loved the father of her child. Annors fell in love with someone else. “I see. Who is her father and where is he now?”
“Right here in this room.”
