“I guess I’ll settle for your shadow in the dark then,” she mused. “What will you settle for?”
I leaned forward, chasing after her as she playfully dodged my kiss, and I ended up burying my face in her neck. She hugged my head there, her nails gently scratching my scalp. I loved the way she did that, how that simple movement made my muscles weak. I didn’t know how she did it, and I didn’t really care.
“This, here.” I placed a gentle kiss on her lips, barely hearing my own voice. “Every thought will be of my good…sweet… girl.”
She groaned and leaned forward, her teeth scraping my bottom lip. “Call me that again,” she murmured. “Tell me I’m your good girl.”
I chuckled under my breath. “That’s not how it works.” I slapped her ass playfully before reaching around her back for the handful of candies I’d left on the counter.
“One more round, baby,” I said.
“Tired, Sir Cupid?” she teased.
“Exhausted,” I said with a smile. “But I need to feel you around me once more.”
I captured her lips in a lingering kiss, her arms circled my neck, and I held her close as I took a handful of the candies in my palm and then held it out to her.
“Close your eyes and pick three,” I said, kissing her jaw. “No cheating.”
She closed her eyes and stuck her hand into the hearts, and for a final time, she laid the candies on the counter.
GOOD GIRL
“How did that get in there?” I asked, picking it up before she could claim it. I tossed it back over my shoulder, grinning in her face as her mouth dropped.
“What—no, that one counts!” she protested.
Her playful argument made me laugh. I circled my arms fully around her waist, giving her ass another spank. My smile buried in her neck, and I started sucking her throat. Her giggle filled my ears as she laid out another heart.
“Interesting,” she said, and I pulled off her neck to see it.
BITE ME
I smiled widely at the heart, delighted at the thought of biting her ass and leaving marks in her skin. She was staring at me when I looked at her again, a soft smirk on her lips, and she tilted her head slightly as she said, “Last one, Eros.”
The rasp in her voice tingled down my spine, a restlessness pulling all the way to my extremities. The knot in my stomach tightened to almost pain. That whisper… my true name on her tongue… It was so familiar, and yet…
Whatever it was, it faded the moment our eyes met. She had another handful of hearts in her open palm. I leaned down and chose one with my tongue, and her smile met me when I showed it to her.
“Harder,” she whispered.
Goosebumps prickled over my skin. I held her delighted eyes, then asked in a hoarse voice, “Are you ready, baby?”
CHAPTER NINETEEN - GAVIN
TAKING HER INTO the bedroom, I savored her kiss and every yearning sweep of her tongue. She held me tight, only slowing when I let her go at the edge of the bed and her feet touched the floor. Her sweater was off in a second, both of us fumbling with my pants after. Bare, I whipped her around and held her flush, my hand breezing over her throat, my lips on her neck. Her ass pushed against my stiffening cock, causing more blood to rush there and a fire to ignite in my stomach.
“Are you mine, baby?” I whispered in her ear.
“Yes,” she groaned, her arm reaching up and behind my head, fingers gripping my hair.
I moved my hand across her stomach to between her thighs. So wet. So perfect. My other hand tightened around her throat. “When you play with yourself tomorrow, or another man tries to satisfy you, whose name will you call out at your end?” I whispered. “Tell me whose shadow you’ll come for.”
My teeth raked over her skin, and she moaned out my name.
“Yours,” she managed. “Gavin. Cupid.Eros.”
Fuck, my cock was throbbing. I groaned against her, trying to hold myself back. But, gods, I needed her. I needed to feel her pussy tightening around my dick. I wanted to hear that moan escaping her like she couldn’t stop it.
