His moans echoed off the bedroom walls, humming like a song in her ears. Karen smiled, gliding her lips over his naked chest, the muscles rippling underneath his skin.

Clothes long since abandoned on the floor, they laid on his bed. Steve's hand tightened in her brown waves, eliciting a moan from the woman leaning over him. Her lips closed over his nippel and he leaned his head back, his breathing hard. "Fuck, that's" The words were stopped by a drawn out moan as she lightly bit the sensitive bud.

Grinning at him, Karen ran her tongue over the abused flesh and kissed her way up to his lips. The hand in her hair pulled her head closer while the other grabbed her ass, squeezing the fleshy globe. She sealed her lips over his, her tongue begging for entrance. One of her hands moved to his shoulder, her nails scratching over his collarbone. The other moved between their bodies, taking a hold of his semi hard cock.

"Karen, baby, slow down." His breaths were rushed, softly pulling her head away.

She closed her eyes and pressed her lips together. "I don't want slow, Steve. I want you so bad." Leaning back, Karen sat on his hips just shy of his member. She bit her lip, running her fingers over his chest, coarse hair under her skin.

He sat up with her, slinging his arms around her, brushing away the strands that had fallen around her face. "You have no idea how much I want you, babe."

Smiling, Karen threw her arms around his neck and sealed their lips, moaning at the taste of him when his tongue pushed into her mouth. Heat rushed to her middle and she felt his hard on pressed to her belly, letting her hand fall to his member. Steve growled low in his chest, twining his fingers in her brunette waves, pulling her head back to give him access to her neck.

His lips descended on her throat, sucking on the skin to leave his mark. Let everyone know who she would belong to. She groaned loudly, running her fingers through his dark hair, her nails lightly scratching the skin. Steve moved from her neck, over her collarbones to her breasts, leaving a wet trail of kisses behind. The soft breeze flowing in through the opened window cooled it on Karen's skin and made goosebumps break out all over. Her nipples tightened, his head dipped down and sucked the puckered bud into his mouth. His tongue slid around the peak, teasing it like she had done before he let go and moved to the other breast.

Gasping, the brunette laid her head on his, one hand tightened in his hair, the other caressing his neck and shoulders. "Steve, please." Her breathing laboured as Karen tried to push him back on the mattress, but the former SEAL was too strong for her. His hands gripped her ass, pushed his hips into hers and turned them around with her buried under his body.

"What do you want, huh?" Leaning on his elbows, he hovered over her and peppered her jaw with kisses until he got back to her lips, sealing them with his own before moving down to her neck, knowing that point behind her ear would make her crazy.

Grunting at his teasing, the brunette pushed her middle against his, hoping to make him feel the desperate need she felt at that moment, rubbing herself on his cock. "You really want to make me beg?"

"You have no idea how good you sound when you're begging." His grin wide and flashing his teeth. Resuming his kisses, Steve made his way down, lavishing her breasts and sucking on her nipples. First one, then the other until her back arched and pushed them closer to his mouth. He liked and sucked along her belly to her hips, lightly biting the flesh and nibbling on the skin across her hip bones. She'd have little marks all over but he didn't care, everyone should know that she was his to have. Settling between her opened legs, he looked up at her, breathing in the aroma wafting from her wet heat. "You're so beautiful like this."

"Please, Steve." She groaned as his thumbs pushed her slick folds aside. Not wasting time with teasing or blowing on her sensitive flesh, he ran his tongue around her swollen clit, sucking it between his lips. Another groan left her lips as she pushed her hips toward his face, gasping his name. He didn't want to make her come just yet, pulling back and swiping his tongue over the length of her while she whimpered.

"Oh God." Karen cried out, her hips flexing toward him as he flicked the slick muscle faster and faster over her clit. Bucking, her body tensed and the coil in her belly tightened even more before finally it exploded. The orgasm slammed her into the pillows, her body arching up, pressing her hips toward him until she was spent, collapsed beneath him and her knuckles white from her hold on the pillows underneath her head.

Tiny panting gasps made her chest rise and fall rapidly and Steve, ever the predator, crawled his way up her body, leaving a trail of kisses on her naked flesh before his lips landed on hers, slanting his mouth over her own and letting her taste their combined essences. His hand reached out toward the drawer, rummaging for those silver foil packages he'd stashed there.

Wetting her lips, she brushed her hands over his arms, enjoying the feel of him settling between her legs moments later, the head of his sheathed cock nudging her entrance.

"Do you still want this?" His voice sounded hoarse and uncertainty colored his words, as she fastened her arms around his neck, pulling his face to hers and reassuring him with a kiss. Karen pushed her hips into his, pulling her legs up around his waist and locked them behind his back.

Ending the kiss, she brushed her hands over his jaw, the coarse hair of his stubble scratching her palms. "Don't stop, please Steve, don't you dare."

"I wouldn't dream of it." She arched into him, as he slid inside of her, his cock stretching her. It had been a while since she last was with a man, she hadn't even been with Martin for a while before they broke up. Karen moved restlessly under him, he wasn't fully inside yet but he could feel her muscles twitching around him, gripping him. "Are you alright?"

Nodding her head, Karen ran her hands down over his back, feeling his hot skin and the hard muscles working underneath. "I will be if you don't stop now."

With another thrust, Steve slid home, the growl sitting in the back of his throat melting into a satisfied groan. For a moment he was perfectly still except for the pulsing of his cock inside her and all he felt were the flutters of her hot pussy clenching around him. Lowering his mouth he captured her lips in a hot, passionate kiss, anchoring himself with his hands tangled in her hair he moved, thrusting his hips against hers.

Her toes curled as the sensations flowed through her. Pulling out and sliding back in, each of his thrusts stronger than the last. He hit that special spot only few really bothered to find to get the woman going.

"Fuck." Steve's voice strained, trying to pace his thrusts, drawing out that climax. He needed to control himself, needed to last. But Karen didn't want that, she wanted him now, fully, uncontrolled. Wanted him wild and hard.

"Steve, baby, don't hold out on me now, please." She gasped in his ear, pulling his head down to capture his mouth, satisfied by the abandon with which his tongue met hers in their passionate kiss. His body was driving her toward completion, the muscles in her legs and belly straining against the coil inside of her. She clawed her hands into his shoulders, listening to the grunts and groans that escaped his lips still attached to hers at the delicious pain he felt. Another thrust, hard and deep, his fingers drawing torturous circles on her clit and she felt the waves crashing over her, pulling her under like the ocean's strong current. It drained her, took her breath away and Karen wrenched her mouth from his, gasping out his name.

Steve enjoyed the play of sensations across her face. Her mouth formed a silent O, her green eyes dark from passion and desire, watching him as if she could suck his would right out of his body. He was still hard, throbbing inside her slick heat, with his hips moving steadily. The hand between their bodies slowly slid upward, softly taking a hold of her jaw, before he drew her face back up into a kiss, taking her panting breaths with her. His tongue wound around hers, exploring her mouth like a man starving for love. His moves became harder again, faster and he felt himself slightly rising onto his knees, changing the angle of his thrusts. Steve's hand tightened in her hair and he felt her insides clench around his cock, shudders running through her body as he was close to his climax. Her hands clenched his sides, running down over his lower back and to his ass, squeezing the hard globes, her nails making half moon shaped dents in his skin as she came a third time. If he'd been thinking straight he would have grinned at making her come so often for their first - well second time, but he couldn't, not with her clenched tightly around him.

A groan ripped from his throat a moment later as he shuddered deep inside of her, his hips ground into her and for a few unsteady moments he breathed, hot puffs of air against her neck. Steve rolled over onto his back, untangling his hand from her hair and gently taking her with him. Karen laid there, one leg thrown over his hips and her head resting against his chest, listening to the rapid beat of his heart. One of his arms was thrown over his eyes, his breath steadying as he laid there, coming down from his high. The last time he had spent the night with her he couldn't remember if it had been just like this, he hoped so because this was damn near perfect and there'd have to be hell freezing over for him to let her get out of his life again.

His head broke the surface, splashing water around him. Steve was nearly back to shore behind his house after he slipped from the bed at the crack of dawn. Karen was still asleep when he left her, snoring softly and burying her head in his pillow. He couldn't help the grin stealing itself on his lips and the heat pooling in his groin thinking back to their night together, especially after. He enjoyed the feel of her body close to his own, her soft curves pressed into his hard planes and he knew he could get used to it, going to sleep with her in his arms and waking up with her still there the next morning.

The last time he had the same thoughts he was in that God forsaken compound in Afghanistan getting tortured for Catherine's whereabouts and for the first time letting fear take over when he thought Umar Hassan was going to end him. He swore to himself when he got out he'd marry her, but well that never happened now, did it? Freddie had been wrong all those years ago, they might have been perfect once but now they'd probably be better off as friends.

With a few more powerful strokes he was back at his part of the beach, feeling the sand under his fingers. He got to his feet, wiping away the excess water and moved over to the chairs in his backyard. Grinning, he grabbed the large towel and made his way inside his house. Steve listened for any signs of Karen already being awake, but as it was she was still in bed enjoying a lay in. He made his way upstairs to his bedroom, stopping in the doorway to watch her sleep with her head buried in the pillows, her brunette waves spread out over her shoulders and the sheets barely covering her ass. Wetting his lips, the former SEAL laid the damp towel over the high back chair in the corner and made his way to the bed. He placed his hands next to her head, leaning over her and letting his lips roam over her shoulders.

Humming at the sensations running through her, Karen opened her eyes, a soft smile raising the corners of her lips. She leaned into her elbows, shifting her body and pressing her ass against Steve's front, feeling the wet swim shorts against her bare skin. "You're all wet, Commander." She mumbled turning her head to look at him.

"You think? Maybe it's you." He grinned and mashed his mouth with her's, running his tongue over her lower lip and begging for entrance. She moaned and placed one hand on the back of his neck, pulling him closer, deepening the kiss to get everything of him. But Steve broak the kiss, leaving her breathless and wanting more. "As much as I enjoy having you in my bed like this I need to get into HQ."

"But it's a Saturday." She pouted and laid back on the pillows. "I thought we could spend today together, preferably in bed, naked?"

Chuckling, Steve moved away from her and to the en-suite bathroom, appreciating the fact that she showcased her body for him. The next three minutes would be very hard and very, very cold for him. "You know, you just sounded like some of the guys I knew back in SEALs. They would say stuff like that all the time."

"Who knows, maybe I used to be one of those in a former life." Karen shrugged, getting out of the bed with a yawn and walked over to the commander, her hands pulling his head down to her level so she could enjoy another kiss before she'd be leaving him for the day.

Steve seemed to have read her thoughts when he felt her pull away. "Why don't we have breakfast before I take you back to the hotel? I still got about an hour before I have to get to the palace."

"You think that's a good idea, seems like you'd much rather have something else on your mind." Biting her lip cheekily, the brunette turned around and grabbed the shirt he wore the night before. She'd be teasing him all the way back to her hotel just to get a rise out of him.

Growling, the former SEAL moved back towards the bathroom, stopping inside the door jam and narrowing his eyes at her. "You better be careful, the punishment for insubordination is quite severe."

"Oh yeah, you going to bend me over your knee?" She had just about left his bedroom when his voice halted her. Turning in the doorway, she cocked her hip and crossed her arms over her chest, pushing her breasts up making them look even fuller than they already were. Steve swallowed at the sight, feeling his mouth water at the fantasies running through his head. There was no denying that he'd love to pull rank on her, the only problem was that she wasn't military so there was no use to that. Maybe he'd get the chance to tie her up, now that would be exhilarating.

"Be careful what you wish for, baby."

"You got it, Commander." She winked at him and went downstairs to try and find the kitchen. The night before definitely had made her hungry like a wolf, not just for food.

A few minutes later Steve stepped into the light flooded room, listening to her humming a song under her breath. He moved behind her, his arms slinging around her waist. "Something smells good in here?"

"Oh yeah? I just started breakfast, your shower was too fast."

The former SEAL chuckled and sat down at the kitchen island, grabbing some fruit Karen had cut up. "It's called a Navy shower."

"Okay, fine." She resumed his eggs and held up the spatula, her back still turned to him. "But I'll not be taking those SEAL showers, you hear. It's taking me longer than three minutes to get this body gorgeous."

"I promise, you can take as long as you want."

The brunette nodded her head and Steve knew there was no way he could argue with her over his house rules. And he probably never would, she was special. He smiled and took the mug she already filled with coffee. He definitely could get used to this every morning.

Once the sizzle in the pan died down, she turned around and poured the eggs onto his plate, grinning broadly at him. "Eat up, you need your strength, Commander."

"I'll show you my strength." He chuckled, pinching her ass.

"Are you sure I should take your car? I'm not sure I feel comfortable navigating this ship."

Steve leaned back against his truck, his legs crossed at the ankles, holding onto Karen's hips. He had offered to give her his car to get around for the day. "Don't worry, I'll be driving with Danny, so take the car."

The brunette crossed her arms behind his neck, holding onto the keys and leaned into his body, her heels giving her a few inches of height. She smiled, pressing her hip into his and sealing her mouth over his own. He groaned softly, tightening his grip on her hips and feeling that she left something essential at his house.

"You little minx, are you trying to kill me." He pulled away from her, his hands settling on her jaw as he saw her grin.

"Not kill you, just give you an incentive to see me again."

Growling he pulled her in, kissing her passionately. The only time he'd never see her again would be when he was dead. Hollering and whistles interrupted them and Steve broke away from her. Looking up they saw the rest of his team grinning at the two of them. "I think you should get up there or they'll never leave you alone."

"Believe me, they won't leave me anyway, but I better get to work."

Nodding her head, Karen laid a quick kiss on his lips and stepped away from him. Steve smiled, walking backwards to the palace, waving her off. Looking at the HQ building he felt like he was going to be standing in front of a firing squad, if not with Chin, Kono and Lou, then with Danny. He'd never shut up and the former SEAL really hoped there was a case coming in so the Jersey detective could concentrate on something else besides his date with Karen Bishop.
