I gasped out a laugh. “I don’t know if I can.”
“Suck that Ring Pop. Maybe it’ll muffle the moans.” He grinned, a little feral in his triumph. “I’m going to take my time.”
“You say that as if I’m not going to come in two seconds.”
“You better not,” he said sternly. “You wait until I say it’s time.”
I bit my lower lip, shivering. “Doesn’t help when you’re all bossy. Only makes me hotter for you.”
He smirked. “I know.”
Then he went back to work, licking and kissing up and down my shaft, taking a few fumbling moments to get me back into his mouth without using his hands.
But when he did? Holy shit. I unraveled in seconds.
I shoved the Ring Pop into my mouth, sucking and moaning as quietly as I could as my body reached the breaking point.
I jerked the candy out of my mouth. “Holden!”
He pulled away. “Do it now.”
We both pretended I came because he told me I could. Truth was, I was coming either way. My cock erupted with a hard orgasm that shook my whole body and obliterated every thought in my head.
When I resurfaced, Holden was wiping me down with a wet cloth. He was wearing a smug, satisfied smile.
“Enjoy yourself?” he asked.
“You know I did,” I said, teasing a laugh from him. “But what about you? Are you ready for?—”
“No,” he said quickly. “I’m good.”
He was still hard and probably desperate to come. I wanted to be the one to touch him, to give him pleasure, but he wasn’t ready. He might never be ready for that.
“Let me watch,” I murmured. “I want to see how good it made you feel to suck me.”
He shuddered. “Fuck, okay.”
He crawled onto the bed, turned onto his back, and fisted his dick in his hand. He jerked himself roughly, like a man who wanted it over quickly.
“Slow down,” I said softly. “Let me enjoy it.”
He stilled, then gradually slid his hand up his shaft before dragging it down again.
“Can I kiss you?” I asked. “Or would that be too much?”
“Kiss me,” he rasped, “but don’t?—”
“I know,” I whispered against his lips. “No touching.”
My lips met his, and he opened for me, thrusting his tongue against mine with a quiet moan.
I kissed Holden while he stroked himself, while he gave himself the pleasure I couldn’t. I kissed him while he came, his cry muffled by my mouth.
I kissed him and knew with a clarity that shook me.
I was in love with Holden Cross.
