Blair’s breathing slows and a second later she smirks. “Okay. You win. Thatwasbadass.” She shakes, her smile turning into a laugh. “But I’m only giving you half a point. It was still more ass than bad boy.”
A chuckle rumbles out of me and I grab her waist, squeezing her flushed skin. “Noted. But I won either way. Now get over here and come lie down.” I pat the bed next to me. “I want to fucking hold you.”
CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR
Zane
Blair shivers as I run the tips of my fingers up and down her back, watching the sheen of goose bumps coat her beautiful, flushed skin. I pause and she trembles.
“Don’t stop,” she murmurs softly, and even though it’s practically a whisper, it’s impossible to miss the pleading nature of her tone.
As if she has to beg.
She clearly has no idea I’d do anything for her.
“I want more.” She shifts slightly, looking up into my eyes. “I’m ready.”
My heart jolts, hoping she means what I think she means, but I don’t let myself get too excited. Since I just gave her a mind-blowing orgasm—her words, not mine—it’s possible she’s referring to sex.
“More?” I ask hesitantly, brushing a wild curl away from her eyes, my skin heating when my knuckles brush across her cheek.
“Everything.” The word leaves her lips on a sigh, and it penetrates my heart.
“Everything?” I want her to spell it out for me.
“I want it all. I wantyou. We’re going to have to keep things quiet for a while and away from the media, for all our sakes. But I want to make this work. I want to makeuswork.”
“So, this isn’t about sex?”
“No.” She giggles. “But I want that too.”
“You know things have changed since we were younger. I no longer think we have to be official before sleeping together.”
“So, you don’t want to be a couple?" She pouts but she knows me better than that.
“I have never wanted anything more.”
“Good. Because I want us to be connected in every way possible. I need it.” She pauses and huffs out a laugh. “That was easier than I thought it would be.”
“Did you think I was going to say no? Or make it difficult for you?”
“No. I thought I’d struggle to get the words out, but I should have known that wouldn’t be the case. Not with you.”
She has no fucking idea how intoxicating she is. “I’m glad I make you feel comfortable, and I’m happy that part was easy…” I trail off for dramatic effect. “Because the next part is not going to be as smooth sailing.”
“Hiding our relationship?”
“Nope. You taking my cock for the first time.”
Blair sucks in a breath, and her body tenses against me.
“Are you ready for that?” I lift off the bed and strip out of my tee, giving Blair a moment to ogle my chest before curling my fingers into the waistband of my sweats, smiling when her gaze follows.
She bites her lip, and my cock pulses as I let it spring free.
Blair shifts uncomfortably before she moves closer, and I almost come at the hunger in her eyes. “Have you ever gone bare?” she asks and I choke, my control wavering.
“I haven’t,” I rasp, my voice failing me.
