Part 7 (1/2)

As they walked across the plush burgundy carpet and through the maze of mauve draped tables, he wondered what it would take to get Dee to trust him again. This morning at the grocery store it had been obvious that she was a long way from that point.

When they reached the table, the waiter stood politely by as Jake and Dee were seated. A single candle flickered at the center of the table, barely giving enough light to see by. The restaurant was busy, but the way their table was hidden from view in the corner, they might as well have been alone. Which was just fine with Jake.

Dee set her purse and jacket down then slid into the cozy booth, trying to keep that sc.r.a.p of a dress from climbing up her thighs.

Let it climb, sweetheart, Jake thought. Let it climb.

Scooting next to her, so that his leg was pressed against hers, Jake whispered in her ear, aItas so dark no one can see, and the table hides you from view.a His gaze roamed over her, and then he added, aFrom everyone but me, that is.a aIf you say so.a Dee gave him a wicked smile and stopped trying to pull her skirt down. Instead, she wiggled and let her dress hike up to the top of her thighs.

Jakeas c.o.c.k had an immediate reaction to the sight of those garters, and he was real glad the waiter couldnat see either one of their laps.

The ponytailed waiter handed them each a menu. After they ordered the shrimp appetizer, main course, and their drinks, the waiter left them alone. But a second later, a busboy placed gla.s.ses of ice water in front of Dee and Jake.

aRomantic.a Dee picked up her gla.s.s and sipped her ice water, glancing around the restaurant.

aUh-huh.a Jakeas mind was mush and he could hardly take his eyes off her.

Deeas scent of rain and orange blossoms enveloped him, sharpening his senses. Her thick hair fell like molten copper over her shoulders, resting on the top of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s. Candlelight reflected in her eyes and her lips were glossy and slightly parted.

The thought of what she could do with those lips darn near made Jake groan aloud. While head been gone, all head thought about was how much head enjoyed their time together when head been working with Imp, and how he wanted to see her.

The waiter returned with their drinks and vanished again into the restaurantas darkness. Jake found himself wis.h.i.+ng the guy would stay away. At least long enough for him to steal a kiss from Dee. Or two.

To h.e.l.l with the waiter.

Dee picked up her gla.s.s of white zinfandel and smiled. Through the crystal wine gla.s.s he saw her tongue press against the rim, the rose fluid rolling over her lips. Mesmerized, he watched her throat as she swallowed.

He swallowed, too. His throat was so dry he didnat think he could have spoken a word.

Forcing himself to move, Jake picked up his draft and downed half the gla.s.s before letting himself look at Dee again.

The sensual play continued until the smell of grilled shrimp alerted Jake that the waiter had brought the plate of appetizers theyad ordered. Dee picked up a shrimp and peeled off the tail. Then she held the morsel between her thumb and forefinger and placed it in front of Jakeas lips.

aOpen up,a she murmured and slipped the shrimp into his mouth when he complied. Jake sucked her fingers as she withdrew them and he felt the slight tremor of her hand.

aThe taste of you was the best part,a he said as he selected a shrimp. Her eyes focused on him, she parted her lips. As he put the shrimp into her mouth, she caressed his fingers with b.u.t.terfly strokes of her tongue.

Just from what Dee was doing with that incredible tongue, Jakeas c.o.c.k was so hard he thought he might come in his jeans.

She brought another shrimp to his mouth and his gaze strayed to her b.r.e.a.s.t.s. He suckled her fingertips like he wanted to be doing to her prominent nipples. Slow lazy strokes and then harder, applying slight suction.

Too soon, or maybe not soon enough, the shrimp were gone. Dee licked her own fingers as she stared at him, the candlelight reflecting desire in her green eyes.

The waiter arrived with their meals, but they barely noticed.

Jake had never had a meal that was a s.e.xual experience like this one. Every bite Dee took made him feel as though she was thinking about going down on his c.o.c.k, licking her tongue along his length and swallowing his come.

She continued to feed him bites of grilled chicken with her fingers, and he returned the favor, until their plates were clean.

aDessert?a the waiter asked when he cleared their plates away.

Frankly Jake wanted to get out of the restaurant and out to his truck. Head never f.u.c.ked in the cab before, but at the moment it was looking real good.

Dee glanced up from the dessert menu and licked her bottom lip. aWhy donat we share a piece of chocolate cheesecake?a Jake could hardly form a coherent thought as all his blood had pooled in his groin, so he settled for a quick nod.

In a few minutes, the waiter returned with the slice of cheesecake and set it in front of them with two forks. Raspberry sauce drizzled down one side of the dessert.

Dee dipped her finger in the sauce and sucked it off. aMmmm, this is heaven.a Jake thrust his fork into the cheesecake. aI know whatas even better.a She gave him a seductive smile. aOh, you do?a Holding the bite of cheesecake in front of her lips, Jakeas right hand glided up her thigh, over the silky stockings, and to the bare flesh above.

She gasped as his hand traveled beneath her skirt to the wisp of satin panties beneath. aJake,a she whispered, but he slipped the bit of cheesecake into her mouth.

aBetter than cheesecake.a He skimmed the crotch of her panties, and smiled when he felt how damp they were. He found the edge of the fabric, and her eyes widened as his fingers brushed over the curls beneath.

Her hand trembled as she put her own fork into the dessert and she held it up to his lips. The cheesecake was smooth and creamy and melted over his tongue as his fingers glided into the wetness of her p.u.s.s.y. He wanted nothing more than to taste her right now instead of that cheesecake.

aIf you keep doing that,a Dee said with obvious difficulty, aIam going to come right here in the restaurant.a aThatas the idea.a Jake fed her another bite of cheesecake as he continued to rub his finger over her c.l.i.t. aNo one can tell what weare doing.a He looked into her eyes, the pa.s.sion in them driving him wild. aI want to watch you come, sweetheart. Now.a In the next moment her hand was in his lap, caressing his c.o.c.k through his jeans. He thrust his fork into the cheesecake again, then slid the bite into Deeas warm mouth just as she parted her lips and climaxed.

Her body shuddered with wave after wave of her o.r.g.a.s.m. He didnat let up stroking her until the tremors stopped and she relaxed against the back of the booth.

aOh. My. G.o.d,a she said, her eyes rolling back. aUnbelievable.a Watching Dee come had d.a.m.n near put Jake over the edge. She continued to stroke his c.o.c.k as she looked at him with heavy lidded eyes. He slipped his hand out of her panties and placed his palm over hers, stopping the motion that was driving him over the edge.

With a shaky sigh, she sat up in her seat. Her hand trembled as she picked up her gla.s.s of wine. aIall never think of chocolate cheesecake in quite the same way,a she murmured over the rim of her gla.s.s, and then drained the contents before setting her gla.s.s down.

aMe neither.a Jake smiled and kissed her, licking away a bit of raspberry sauce from the corner of her mouth.

The waiter approached and set the check on the table. aAnything else I can do for you?a Dee shook her head and Jake said, aWeare more than fine.a aThanks. Please come again.a Dee burst into a fit of giggles and Jake grinned. aIam sure we will.a With a puzzled smile, the waiter took their empty dessert plate and left. Jake pulled cash out of his wallet and put it in the center of the table with the bill.

Dee dabbed her lips with her napkin, and then tossed the napkin under the table.

Jake raised an eyebrow. aWhat did you do that for?a She winked. aOops. I dropped my napkin. Better get it.a Before he could say a word, she slid beneath the tablecloth.

Blood pounded in Jakeas ears. Dee wasnat about to do what he thought she was.

aAh, Dee?a he said as she disappeared.

She pushed the tablecloth out of the way and moved between his thighs. aIam going to return the favor.a Jakeas breathing became ragged and his hard-on positively ached. aHere?a aMmmm.a Deeas nimble fingers found his belt and she undid it in record time. aYou said no one could see us. And the waiter left the check, so heas not likely to come back right away. But youall come.a Her words were slightly m.u.f.fled, but the sensual tone was unmistakable.

Jake felt a tug on his zipper, and then thrill and release as his throbbing c.o.c.k sprang free.

His eyes darted around the restaurant.

No one could see them.

Right?

G.o.d, he hoped not.
