do
that?”
    “By offering you the opportunity of
a lifetime.”
    “You mean you’re going to let me
put you in handcuffs and arrest you?”
    He snorted. “You’re not arresting
me. And you’re definitely not putting me in handcuffs. I could return the favor
for you though. Use your own handcuffs on you.”
    Shaking her head no, Elena laughed.
“Sorry pal, but last time I checked, I was the one with the power to use them.
Not you.”
    “Only here, on base, and only when
you’re on duty. I was talking about later. When you get off shift. I could come
over to your place and demonstrate who really has the power in this dynamic.”
    Elena turned slowly until she was
facing Gage Ivanov. Those strangely beautiful eyes of his almost seemed to glow
in the night as they slowly dragged upwards from where they’d been glued to her
ass and then focused on her face. Cocking her eyebrow at his apparent and
shameless ogling of her backside, she gave a short laugh. “I know you special
ops guys think you’re the best thing around since sliced bread, but don’t get
too full of yourself.”
    He slowly leaned forward to run his
nose from the base of her throat, skimming her skin lightly as he inhaled
deeply, before stopping his lips so that they were touching the shell of her
ear. Then he whispered, “I’m not looking to get full of myself. I’d much rather fill you .”
    Her mouth instantly went dry as the
Sahara Desert, and other parts of her, ones much lower than her mouth, seemed
to fire up. Except there was no dryness involved down there. No, her panties
were practically sopping wet right now. Elena had to lock up every muscle in
her body so that she wouldn’t lean forward an inch and a half and rub all over
him like a cat in heat.
    This was a bad, bad idea. If she
went and did something as stupid as hooking up with him, someone could make
some whack ass claim of favoritism on this call she’d responded too. So she
needed to move herself away from the hottest man to ever push all of her
naughty buttons, and drive away from here like her career depended on it.
Because if she gave into this insane attraction between them, with any claim of
favoritism or fraternization against her, her career might go down the shitter.
As good as the man probably was in bed, it wouldn’t be worth the career she
adored in the Army.
    Right?
    Elena put her hands on his chest to
push him off of her, because he hadn’t moved away at all, but ended up gasping
instead when his teeth nipped her ear. Now her fingers were clenching his shirt
instead of shoving him away because those lips of his were on the move. Placing
a lingering kiss on the skin just under her ear, before continuing their
journey south where he stopped again to gently bite at the base of her neck. It
took Elena a second to realize that the sound she heard was her moaning as she
pulled the infuriating man closer until nothing but clothes separated the
fronts of their bodies.
    She felt that hand of his come off
her car as he used it to grab the back of her neck seconds before his lower
body pinned her to the car. She could feel the hard length of him push into her
stomach. His other hand slipped in between her butt and the vehicle so that he
could grab her ass hard, squeezing his fingers into her soft flesh in a slow
rhythmic pattern that reminded her of a cat kneading. Dropping his mouth down
to hers, she thought he was going to kiss her, but he didn’t. He licked her
instead. Swiping a deliciously wet, but slightly rough tongue right over her
lips. Her breath caught in her chest from the erotic feel of that tongue and he
groaned. His chest vibrating slightly under her hands from the sound. That lick
alone was the most understated but sexy thing that any man had ever done to
her.
    That was the moment her common
sense went out the window.
    Elena stood up on her tip toes and
crushed her mouth to Ivanov’s in a desperation she’d never felt before. Would
probably never feel again.
