When they walked into the office, Mikael looked like he had gone through the wringer. Petra stopped when she walked in, and he closed the door. She didn't see him turn the lock on the door, either. She just looked at his face. He was still completely shocked at what had just happened.
Mikael only wanted one thing at the moment, and that was her next to him. He pulled her closer and found the comfort of her tiny arms around him. He didn't have to try to hold everything in though he still was in shock. He tipped her head up so he could see her eyes, and then he found her mouth with his own. There was a hunger there that neither of them could deny. The tension in him was surging through him. She could feel it as if it was a living being growing in him. She let him pull her along to the couch and then hiked her skirt up so she could straddle him. "I know you said, not here." He whispered on his lips. "I just need you right now. Even if it is this way."
