Jerome wanted very badly to avoid staking her claim on Anna. On the other hand, he kissed her, taking her mouth in his own and branding her lips with an intense desire. Instantaneously, she bowed down to him, and he sat there, savoring the triumph of her response in complete silence.However, her submission only lasted for a short while. Anna tore her mouth away from his as she pressed her hands on his bare chest. The sensation of her touch teased him with the prospect of all the different places they could go together. She mumbled, "No," her voice trembling with desperation and the weight of desire. "I want you, but not in this form," she said. Not when you have no justification for your anger."He supported himself on his elbows, placing one on either side of her, and fixed his gaze on her eyes as he did so. "You frightened the living daylights out of me." His voice was raspy and had a gravelly quality that was difficult for him to identify as being his own.Her expression was one o
They pumped, together, for long moments, and then they stilled, staring at one another, and he saw in her what he felt in himself. They were both bewildered by the plethora of feelings and pleasures that were surging through them at the same time.Her unkempt hair framed her heart-shaped face, and she waited with her lips parted for him to approach. "Damn, you're beautiful," he murmured as he lowered his mouth to take hers, and his hands reached beneath her backside to pull her closer to him. "Damn, you're beautiful," he murmured again. While he continued to pump, he angled her hips, and she continued to take it... she begged for more. She was tense for a few seconds before her body jerked into release, which came too soon or not soon enough. Until finally, she shattered.He continued to ride her while looking at her and being mesmerized by the sight of her approaching. He restrained himself and waited until he was certain that she had reached her full level of contentment. When her
After several hours, Anna awoke while she was resting on her stomach. Because they had been sleeping through the night, the room was pitch black. She gave a sly grin to herself. The hand of Jerome was resting on her exposed butt. Certainly an example of a butt guy.She let out a soft sigh as she reflected on the many enjoyable hours of sexual activity that they had spent together. Lovemaking. His word, not hers. What had transpired between them, on the other hand, had been significantly more satisfying and potent than any other sexual encounter she had had before he came into her life. Indeed, lovemaking. She had nothing except sexual encounters with her former partner. This… This experience I had with Jerome was about more than just the simple pleasures the body can provide. Because of this, she found herself in a state of mind in which the rest of the world began to disappear into a place that she shared with only one other person—with Jerome.Her thoughts immediately went to hi
She came to a halt when he held out his hand in a stopping gesture. He said, "You're going to go back to your perfectly planned life, free of evil influences like myself." I am the one who got you involved in this mess with Randy, and I am the one who will get you out of it. I'll get you your life back. I give you my word that..."He grabbed the bags and then reached for the door, yanking it open before she could answer and tell him that what she truly wanted was...him. He opened the door before she could tell him that she wanted him.The majority of the trip to Austin was spent with Jerome in a sour mood, acutely conscious of her every action and every sound. He was driven completely insane by her yearning, his rage, and his frustration. with...an additional component. Something that he did not wish to contemplate further. However, he was unable to reject the fact that he had feelings for Anna, nor was he able to deny how inappropriate he was for her.He was not the kind of man who
"This house has a total of three bedrooms. I sat you on the seat that is to the left of the door. It's also prettier and more spacious. The papers you need to review were sent to you by your boss. They are on the dresser, where you can find them."Okay," she said. “Thanks.”Phil continued, "We will want you to be in a controlled setting as much as possible, so only your immediate family and those associated to the case will be allowed to visit on a limited basis." I need a list of everyone who has a chance of being let in so that we may conduct background checks on them. They are not permitted entry if their name does not appear on that list. You'll always have three agents at your disposal, including Agent Sandro and the other two." His attention briefly shifted to Jerome. "After everything that went down with Jack, I don't blame him for being wary of everyone," she said. After that, he had a direct conversation with Jerome. We placed him under custody late last night. He has be
She took a deep breath and realized that her feelings were, at best, erratic, and that this was not entirely due to the fact that she was dating Jerome. The fact that her father was there in the courtroom that day caused her to experience mental confusion. He'd been sitting there with an accusatory expression on his face the whole time. But no matter how flawed he would want to find her performance, he wouldn't be able to, and the only reason he wanted to find it problematic was because she was performing work that he didn't approve of. She was at the pinnacle of her abilities and giving her absolute best performance. She wanted Pedro to be locked up, and she was willing to do whatever it took to make that happen. Her one and only regret was that she couldn't genuinely share the improvement with Jerome, because for the sake of appearances, they were required to pretend as though they were strangers. However, they had already accomplished too much to let an affair ruin their credi
"No," he responded. "That is not going to happen. You are not being used by anyone as a bait. I was the one who got you into this mess, and I'll be the one to get you out of it.They were staring at one another, her lips were apart, and it seemed as though the world was somehow pulling them apart, despite the fact that just a few days earlier it had brought them together.In the end, she admitted, "I got myself into this by taking on this case." "I'll find a way to get out of this."She avoided him, and this time he turned around to watch her depart after she had already left the room. "Anna," he called out to her as she moved toward the entrance to the room. When she looked back over her shoulder, her gaze traveled to his with a questioning expression on her face.Jerome declared, "This is not going to end here."The atmosphere became tense as the seconds ticked by until she turned and walked out of the room, the door closing behind her.Jerome made himself comfortable on the mattres
He gave her one of those smiles as he passed her by. "It's great to have you back, Anna." The phrases carried an undercurrent of flirtatious intent, which he seemed incapable of avoiding when speaking to a woman.She did not extend an invitation for him to have a seat. She addressed her question to him in a chilly manner, saying, "What can I do for you, Frank?" The intention behind her icy demeanor was to drive him away. He never stopped regarding her as his property, and he made an effort to stake his claim to her at every opportunity that presented itself. Her greatest protection was to maintain some distance between them.Frank's eyes drifted over her shoulder to the table where the two agents were playing cards, and then they settled there. Jerome stood there, a fleeting expression of unease appearing on his face; most people wouldn't notice, but she knew Frank better than she wanted to. She smiled to herself privately, relishing the look of bewilderment on his face.Frank switch
Three days later In the courtroom, Anna was standing. As soon as she learned that Pedro had been found guilty on all charges, she felt nothing but joy and happiness. The time spent deliberating had only been for a total of four hours. Anna wanted to celebrate this victory on so many fronts and on so many levels that she wanted to dance. The next person in line would be Jack, but her supervisor was taking care of that one.As soon as she was able to escape the pandemonium that ensued when the court was adjourned, her eyes immediately found Jerome's, and she and he exchanged a wordless glance of happiness with one other. It was a done deal. Never again would Pedro inflict pain on another person.When it came to Randy, the FBI had located him with the help of a confidential source and had carried out the arrest flawlessly.On the steps leading up to the courtroom, there was a group of reporters with flashing cameras waiting for them, and Anna made a brief remark. It was over much too qu
It was then that she tore the bracelet off of her arm. "I don't require the bracelet at this time. I can no longer avoid dealing with the past. I'm done letting it define me. I'm resigning from my job. I'm going to begin from scratch. It's time for me to start over. And I want to accomplish it alongside you.His expression suddenly changed to one of surprise. A glimmer of optimism. After that, it was gone, and the chill returned. "Until such time as I do something that causes you to have doubts about yourself or possibly my motives. Something that has you seeing myself as a negative influence despite the fact that I am not." “No.” How was it possible for her to communicate with him? At this point, it would be pointless to declare her love because no one would listen. He was under the impression that she did not have a favorable opinion of him and that she did not trust him on some level. She recalled a chat the two of them had back in Houston; therefore, she was aware of what steps t
