He reached over his back, gripped his shirt, and pulled it over his head, then dropped the clothing on the floor.
Her breath caught in her throat at her first sight of him.Her hands went to his shoulders and slid down to test the massive biceps he had.The contrast between their bodies, the strength and power he had, was an aphrodisiac, and it weakened her already overloaded system to the point where she shook with desire.
“Jesus, woman.I want to go slow with you this first time, but every move you make, your scent, and the sounds you create have me close to losing it.”
She combed her fingers through his hair.“You’ll just have to make it up to me.”
He grinned.“You are something.”
She shrugged.
His fingers went to her shirt.Her breathing deepened with every button he opened, spreading her blouse to show her breasts in a white lacey bra.
She watched as the red tide that bloomed on his face spread, showing her, without words, the desire he felt.Her breath snagged in her lungs when he used a thumb to flick over one of her nipples.
Her eyes rolled back when she felt the moist heat of his mouth on her other nipple.He made an impatient sound and reached for the front enclosure, snapping it open and letting her breasts spill out.
“Goddamn, you’re beautiful.”
Her first inclination was to cover herself, but the look on his face made her pause.
He used his mouth to worship both nipples until she withered against him.
“Kaleb...”
“I know, Baby.I’ll take care of you.”He unsnapped her jeans and pushed them and her panties off at the same time, taking her sandals with them until she stood before him naked.His gaze raked up and down.
Her hands gripped his shoulders, trying to pull him closer, but it was like budging a boulder.
He cupped the back of her head with one hand and let his other roam over her.He started at her neck, down her breasts, and then her stomach, then around to cup her ass.At the same time, his lips took hers in a kiss so blindly passionate she couldn’t seem to take a full breath, and her brain wouldn’t focus on anything but her body.
He thrust his tongue into her mouth in the same way he’d take her body, and she felt lightheaded.Her damp heat slid down the inside of her thighs.
“Kaleb,” she pleaded when he lifted his mouth.
He gripped her hips, lifted her, twisted, and then laid her down on the mattress.He tackled his boots and socks and then looked over his shoulder at her.
“I have to warn you that one of my legs is also scarred.”
“You’re going to tell me what happened someday, aren’t you?”
“Yes.I promise.”
He stood to unsnap and drag his jeans and boxers down and off, standing in front of her.
Her gaze roamed over him and decided they didn’t make them better than this.Her eyes teared when she saw the damage done to his leg.
“Don’t, Baby.I’m all right.”
She sniffed and tried to smile before she started to check out his body again.
When her gaze fell on his hard-on, she swallowed.She figured he’d be big, and she guessed she might have problems accepting him at first.But his size was larger than she had anticipated.
“We’ll fit.I don’t want you to worry about anything.You’re making me feel ten feet tall right now, Baby.”
She smiled softly.“You’re perfect.”
He snorted and came down beside her and propped himself up on an elbow.He cupped her cheek with his palm, lowered his head, and took her mouth with a hunger that stopped her breath and reasoning.
