“Because I’m worried that I’ll do more than just touch you, Viv.”
My heart jolts at the words and for a few long minutes, the room is quiet. So silent that I can hear the trees whistling outside and the soft roar of the wind.
“You want to do more than touch me?” I whisper into the quiet room. “Then why did you stop earlier?”
“Your brother would kill me if I crossed a line with you.”
Knox? Oh, I don't doubt that. My big brother was always fiercely protective of me. It’s the one thing I remember most about him, but I haven’t been a little girl for a while now.
“He’s not here in the room with us,” I say.
“Viv—”
“It’s cold tonight, Kyle. We could share warmth, and we’ll both sleep more comfortably for it.”
“Viv…I can’t.”
Can’t or won’t? Right now, it feels like the latter, and the rejection stings. It stings so badly that my next words are spoken in a cold voice, enough to suck whatever warmth was left in the room. “There’s no need to use my brother as an excuse. You don’t have to touch me if you don’t want to.”
“Viv—”
I turn away and fling the covers over my head, knowing deep down that I won’t be getting any sleep tonight. I consider givingKyle the blanket and heading for the living room to read a book I found earlier. Maybe that’ll keep me occupied until sunrise and I can sleep in the car. I’m just about to do that when the bed dips beside me and my heart starts hammering in my chest.
The bed creaks as Kyle climbs under the covers and I shiver when his legs touch mine. With his big warm body so close, I wonder how the hell I’m going to get any sleep tonight.
And then he touches me.
I bite hard on my lip to stop a whimper when his hand snakes around my waist and yanks me hard against him, his hard length digging into my backside. “Feel this?” he rasps into my ear, sending goose bumps over my body. “I’m hard as stone for you, Viv. I’m safer sleeping on the floor and not in bed with you. I can’t control myself when I’m around you.” He groans as he rolls his hips and I gasp at the hard press of his erection. “I was so close to fucking you in that hot tub, baby. So close to pushing your panties to the side and slipping my cock into your tight little pussy.”
My lips part in a sharp intake of breath at his words, so dirty and obscene. “Why didn’t you?” I brave.
“Because I didn’t want to take advantage of you over some stupid game, and because I’m not supposed to be touching you right now.”
“I’m a big girl.” I bite hard on my lip again. “N-no one has to know.”
“Fuck, don’t say that, baby. I’m barely holding myself in check as it is.”
It’s reckless of me to tease a man who’s telling me he’s on the verge of breaking, but I can’t help myself. I ache…everywhere. I’ve felt his lips on me; I know the relief they can afford me andI want that again. No, I need it like my next breath, so I push up against him.
“It’s just us two here,” I say, feeling incredibly shy. “I…I won’t tell Knox if you touch me. No one has to know.”
With a barely contained growl, Kyle flips me onto my back and his mouth is on mine before I can make a sound. My lips part for him with a sigh, and I groan when he starts licking feverishly into my mouth and I respond in kind. I slide my hands up his naked back and hold him close to me as his mouth battles mine.
He breaks the kiss to trail his lips over my neck and I whimper when his hands slide under my T-shirt and cup my breasts. I arch into his touch, crying out when he pinches a nipple between his knuckles and tugs. His mouth moves down and takes the other bud between his lips, suckling hard until my hips are bucking off the bed.
“I can’t get enough of you,” he says raggedly, his warm breath caressing my wet nipple and sending heat to my core. I tremble when he kisses my stomach, pushing my leggings down as he moves. “I shouldn’t be touching you right now, but I can’t fucking help myself.”
“Kyle…what are you doing?” I whisper, alarmed as his mouth moves lower.
“I want to taste you,” he growls, yanking my leggings the rest of the way down until he slides them off completely. I gasp when he grabs my ankles and crudely lifts them over his shoulders, putting his eyes at level with my sex. It’s dark, except for the moonlight filtering through the window, so he probably can’t see much, but it’s still…vulnerable, the way in which he leaves me exposed.
His hands tighten around my legs and hold me in place when I try to lower them. “I’m going to taste you.” I tremble when I feelhis tongue trail the inside of my thigh, slowly moving up to the spot where I ache for him the most.
He pushes his nose against my sex and I blush fiercely when he inhales deeply. “I’m already hooked on you, Viv. Fuck, you smell like heaven. I can’t wait to taste you.”
My hips lift off the bed when I feel the tip of his tongue parting my feminine lips, but nothing prepares me for the heat that rolls through my body when he licks me. “God!” I cry out, nails digging into the sheets when he runs his tongue over the wet valley of my sex. His pleasured groan is drowned by my loud moan. His fingers tighten around me as he buries his face deeper and starts licking me like a crazed man. My body jolts and arches with broken sobs that only seem to fuel him and…it’s almost too much. “Kyle…oh God, Kyle.”
I’m rocking against him now, my hips trembling with each drag of his tongue over my most intimate part. I didn’t really understand why people did this with their mouths, or that it could bring so much pleasure, and now I want more. The heat gathering in my core is overwhelming and the ache only seems to grow by the second.
