Falling for the Enemy (Falling Series Book 2) by C.M. Steele (3)

John

“What has gotten into you, John? You cancelled an important meeting for a woman? You’re turning into Hendricks.” Jason looked worried, but he had nothing to be concerned about.

“Fuck Hendricks. This is different. You know that I barely spare a woman a glance, but she’s special. More than. I want to marry her, as nuts as it sounds.”

“Yes, it is nuts, but I’ve never seen you this way. You look like a damn mad man. She’s the one, you think? She’s a bit young.”

“I know she is, but I’m going to marry her and fill her up with my kids. I felt it from the moment I saw her. Everything last night showed me more than I needed to know and that kiss was better than any sex I’ve ever had. How the fuck that could be is a mystery to me, but it was.” If she hadn’t pulled back, I would have embarrassed myself. I’d never come from a kiss before, in fact it took me a lot to, if at all.

I’d given up on women a couple years ago because my love life wasn’t appealing. Making the money I’d never had was the thing that kept me going strong. Beating that fuck face, Hendricks, made me happy. He was too busy screwing his assistants and ruining his reputation to outgun me on deals.

“Do you think she’s going to be ready? You sent her a message in the middle of the night.”

“Look,” I said, pointing to the entrance. She was standing there with her coat bundled up. It was cold, she should have waited inside for me. Jason pulled up to the front barely coming to a stop before I jumped out. “What are you doing out here? It’s freezing.”

“It’s not that bad.”

“Yes, it is. I could have been stuck in traffic in this congested ass city.”

“Well, are you going to keep me out in it to yell at me for being in the cold?” She got smart with me and I wanted to kiss her for it.

“You got me there, blondie.” I helped her into the car, sitting in the backseat beside her. I had breakfast ready for her in my hotel room before we went to see a movie. I wanted to spend all my time with her before I had to leave. Damn, I didn’t even want to think about not seeing her.

“What happened to your meeting?” she asked, genuinely interested.

“He cancelled it,” Jason snitched and I gave the fucker a dirty look.

“Asshole,” I muttered, thinking of firing him for that shit.

“I can’t believe you did that,” she stated, gawking at me like I was an ass. Normally that would make me one, but she mattered more than the meeting.

“Well, I wasn’t going to miss a chance to spend the day with you. It wasn’t important anyway.”

“What am I going to do about you?” she questioned softly, shaking her head.

I leaned in and whispered in her ear, “Anything you want.”

Her body wiggled slightly in the seat. I knew she wanted more. I did too, but I had to take it at her pace. If she’d let me, I would slam my cock into her the moment we stepped into my hotel room. Jason dropped us off at the valet, then headed out to get his own breakfast. I could send him home, but I was leaving tomorrow so it didn’t make any sense.

Once we reached the penthouse suite, I opened the door and let my lovely lady enter to the large buffet I had prepared for us.

“Wow, are you feeding an army?” she asked, her arm passing over the large breakfast. In truth, it was enough to feed about four to five people.

“No, I wasn’t sure what you wanted. Besides, I eat a lot.”

“I…like everything. I can see that being very possible. My brother eats a lot and he’s very muscular too.”

“Well then, I’ll remember that when I meet him.” She blanched. I know she wasn’t ready to introduce me, but I would be very soon.

“Come on, let’s get our plates together and then we can have the rest packed up to give to the homeless outside.”

“Really? That’s wonderful.” I’d been there before. I’ve suffered, so donating time and money to shelters was what I did. I even owned one in Chicago.

“Let’s eat so we can get it to them.”

“Okay.” She had the brightest smile on her face and that shit made me fall harder than I already was. I pulled her close, kissing her softly on the forehead before leading her to the plates.

After twenty minutes of dining we packed everything else up and headed downstairs to hand them out before taking my beauty on our date. We got to the movie theater only to see that it was closed. They had an electrical issue in the area that knocked out the power.

“Sorry, but our movie date is cancelled.”

“Well, there’s a Redbox around the corner. Do you want to rent a movie and watch it?”

“We can, or we can rent a movie straight from my hotel room.”

“Oh, that’s true. Did you want to do that or is our day done?”

“Love, you’re not going anywhere without me, but nice try.”

“I wasn’t trying to get away, John.”

“Fuck, I need to taste those lips of yours again.” I bent down and took her mouth, kissing her soft, plump lips. Like a love-struck puppy, I needed more. I pulled her to me in the middle of a busy New York street and lifted her up. She wrapped her legs around my waist as her hands dove into my hair. The beeping of horns with cheers and catcalls put our impromptu public display to a halt. I set her down on her feet and walked us to my car. After helping her in and closing the door, I walked uncomfortably to the other side with a stiff cock that I couldn’t adjust out in the open.

We drove back to the hotel and Jason was standing out there waiting for us. “What happened?” I asked him.

“Nothing, I’ve got to do some more shopping before I go see my family. Since you took the car I was going to hail a cab, but now I don’t have to. What happened to the movie?”

“The theater is closed, power issue,” I informed him. He nodded taking the keys from me.

“Well, Clash of the Titans just started on one of the movie channels in the rooms.”

“Ooh, I love that movie,” Layla added.

“Then come on princess. Let’s not miss any more of it.” I led her back up to the room and we turned it on in the living room, taking a seat on the large, cozy sofa. I scooted her close to me, while she kicked off her shoes and tucked her legs back and leaned into my waiting embrace. It felt so natural as we watched Sam Worthington kick some ass on the large sixty-five-inch screen. This was much better than the theater.
