Liam has nipples.
Not really better. Of course he had nipples. All humans had nipples. She’d just never given much thought to the matter before now.
Her hand drifted down his shoulder, over his chiselled pectoral muscle, so different from her soft breasts, until she circled the flat disc with her thumb.
He hissed a breath through his teeth. ‘Fuck, Penny.’
Fuck Penny. Yes. That is the idea.
But while it had seemed a good plan in theory, the practice of it was all rather daunting. She looked up and took comfort in his wild gaze. She wasn’t the only one flying apart.
‘The sheath…’ Embarrassing heat washed over her cheeks. But she wouldn’t risk pregnancy.
He lifted her chin, pressing a soft kiss against her lips. ‘As you command.’ Turning, he strode to the washbasin sitting atop a nightstand next to his dressing-room door. Opening a small drawer in the nightstand, he pulled something out and came back to her.
‘Will you put it on? I’ll show you.’
Alarm thrilled through her. Looking at his engorged cock was intimidating enough. She couldn’t imagine howthatwas supposed to fit insideher. But to touch him, wrap him in the French letter. What if she did something wrong?
‘Shouldn’t you do it?’
‘I can if you don’t want to.’
‘I wouldn’t know how… What if I hurt you?’
Liam’s choked laugh only increased her mortification. Shehatedbeing ignorant. Even in this.
‘I don’t want to do something wrong.’ She let the anger wash away her trepidation.
‘I’m sorry. Of course. You can’t do anything wrong, Penny. It won’t hurt me if you touch me. Did it hurt you when I licked your sweet cunny?’
The words he says!
She loved it.
‘No.’
‘It will feel similar for me. Not so intense, not like being inside you. But it won’t hurt. I promise.’
He was going to be inside her. Soon.
‘Oh my.’
Liam gripped her hand and flipped it over, palm side up. ‘We’ll do it together.’
He placed the funny little sheath in her palm.
‘What is it made of?’
‘Similar to the casing of a sausage.’
She giggled as a wild image of Mrs O’Brian stuffing sausages came to mind.
Liam’s brow raised and his mouth turned down in confusion. ‘What?’
Penny shook her head. ‘Nothing.’ She looked more closely at the thin little sleeve. A scarlet ribbon was attached to the open end. ‘Is that a naked woman drawn on it?’
Chuckling, Liam licked his lips and Penny felt something heat and melt inside her. ‘Inspiration, I suppose.’
