Ashanti ground the back of her head into the pillow as Thad splayed his fingers across her thighs and opened them wide. Her back bowed off the bed when he entered her, the shock of sensations she hadn’t felt in so long sending her soaring. She lifted her hips to meet him, thrusting up as he plunged down, her body craving every delicious inch of his.
He returned to her breast, lapping at her nipple and closing his mouth over it as he sank deeper inside of her.
“This is so much better than watching a rom-com,” Ashanti said.
Thad’s head popped up. “What?”
“Ignore me,” she said. “Please, just… just…”
“Say it,” he taunted. He lowered his head and trailed his tongue along her collarbone and up her neck. “Just what?” he whispered against her skin.
“Fuck me,” Ashanti pushed out on an urgent breath. “Please. Just fuck me until I say stop.”
“As long as you promise you won’t say stop for a very long time.”
She locked her hands behind his head and reached up for a kiss, sealing her lips against his.
“Not until the sun comes up.”
She gasped as he pumped his hips.
“Too soon,” Thad said. “Checkout isn’t until eleven.”

The effort it took to calm his body down so that he could prolong his time with Ashanti was unlike any Thad had ever had to exert. The connection between his brain and his dick must have been broken, because no matter how much he told himself to take this slow, his body refused to listen.
Ashanti’s pleasurable gasps and mewls weren’t making it any easier. Every sexy little whimper was like an injection of fuel, accelerating his need to draw out that response from her over and over again. He wanted to make her cry out in pleasure, to make it so good that she wouldn’t even think about limiting this to a one-time thing.
Thad hooked his arms under the bend of her knees and angled her hips upward, his own limbs growing weak at the ecstasy the shift in position produced. He immersed himself in her, not just her body but her entire essence. He could feel himself becoming more enthralled with every delicious thrust. She intoxicated him. Captivated him, body, soul, and everything in between.
“This first time won’t last until morning,” Thad breathed against her neck. “But I promise if you stay in this bed, I’m going to make it worth your while.”
“I’m not leaving,” she said. “Please… just.”
She didn’t have to say more. Thad licked two fingers and shoved his hand between their bodies, finding her clit and stroking it as his dick drove in and out, his hips pumpingwith increasing speed. The familiar sensation started at the base of his spine and quickly rushed to his front, his balls growing heavy with the need to come.
He felt Ashanti coming undone underneath him only a few seconds before the orgasm swept through him. His entire body shook with the force of it, leaving him gulping for breaths.
His pleasure was instantly replaced with panic at the thought that what he’d felt wasnotAshanti coming. But when he looked down, there was no mistaking the cause of the unmitigated bliss blanketing her face.
“Thank God,” Thad said before collapsing on top of her, relief and the aftereffects of his orgasm sapping what little strength still remained in his bones. Thad forced himself to get up so he could dispose of the condom. In under a minute, he was back in the bed, stretching alongside Ashanti.
He rolled onto his back and caught her by the hips, pulling her on top of him. He needed to feel her against him even though he was no longer inside of her. For now.
“That was nice. And necessary,” she said. “Evie and Ridley would be proud.”
Thad peered at her. “Do I even want to know?”
She shook her head, her chin rubbing against his breastbone. She turned her head and rested her cheek on him, emitting a satisfied sigh. His dick twitched at the sound. His recovery time would be even shorter than he’d first thought.
“This will come as no shock,” Ashanti said. “But it has been a long time since I did this. I forgot how much I miss out on when it’s just me and my vibrator.” Her head popped up, the sprinkling of freckles across her nose deepening to a rich crimson. “Why did I just tell you that?”
“Because my ego can use every boost it can get?” Thadsaid. “I’m not sure if this will shock you or not, but it’s been a long time since I did this too.”
“That absolutely shocks me,” she said. “You are so lying right now.”
“I’m not,” he said. “I told you earlier that you’re the first woman in a very long time that I’ve been interested in.”
