She nodded, closed her eyes and turned her mouth up to mine.
Our kiss was slow and thorough. While exploring her mouth, I made no move to touch her other than to raise my hands to the center of her back.
Gina gripped my arms and returned the kiss with all the energy she possessed. I wanted to keep things at a steady pace, so I bussed my way up her cheek to her ear, unravelling the knot she'd made in her hair. Gently, I sucked on her earlobe, which had her twisting in my arms. I moved back to her mouth and took what she offered me so willingly.
I eased both hands under the hem of her dress and raised it slowly until my palms rested on the skin at her waist. With my thumb, I teased her navel as she moaned into my mouth. While intensifying our kiss, I brought her dress higher. When the silky material was at chest level, I pulled away from Gina and lifted the material over her head. Our eyes met and without words, I asked if she was okay with what we were doing. Her mouth eased open and she laid her forehead against my chest, breathing hard as she unbuttoned my shirt.
I helped her get my shirt off and let it fall to the floor. She played with the ridges on my chest and stomach, and ran her finger over my nipples before unsnapping the button on my jeans. I stepped away and pulled off my pants, leaving them where they landed. When I stood straight, Gina's hands returned to my chest, massaging my muscles in wide circles.
I pulled her close, letting her feel my excitement. Seconds later, I picked her up and laid her across the bed. She circled the back of my neck and pressed her mouth to mine as if she needed that connection with me. While we kissed, I unhooked her bra and eased it off her. Gina was a pleasant handful of creamy, sensitive flesh. She responded to the slightest stimulation. As my fingers rode over the rose-brown bud of flesh, her hips churned and she begged me to stop.
Smiling slightly and with my fingers still in motion, I asked. "Are you sure?"
Her head whipped back and forth on the mattress as I played with her.
I lowered my head and closed my lips around the tip of her other breast, drawing in a sharp breath as I did. The pain was immediate and sharp where Gina's nails dug into my arms.
Gently, I continued to tease and nibble at her, maneuvering to her other side to get better access for what I wanted to do. As she let out little bursts of sound, I urged her to lift her hips. I slid her underwear down her thighs and abandoned them on the bed, using the opportunity to get the condoms from the bedside drawer. I didn't think she was ready, so I lay next to her stroking between her thighs.
Gina grabbed my arm and I was sure she'd rip the skin away.
I continued tasting, teasing and eventually tormenting her with faster strokes until she dug her heels into the mattress and yelled my name as she reached orgasm. I kissed her neck, where the skin was damp with sweat, and prepared myself to take her for the first time.
With my knees I separated her thighs and lifted them around my hips, supporting my weight on both arms. I didn't do anything except nuzzle my lips to her neck and rub my cheek against her skin.
As Gina twisted her hips against mine in a restless and sensuous rhythm, I met her eyes.
She was ready.
Chapter 8
Gina
ALL THE DAYDREAMINGI'd done about Kofi was nothing compared to reality. He put everything into making love to me and even though I could have used some rest, I wanted him again. My eyes opened and I realized we'd fallen asleep with the lights on. I got up, switched off the bedside lamp, but didn't bother to get the one in the bathroom.
The glow cut the darkness in the bedroom, but left Kofi's face and upper body in shadow.
