“What do you need, sweetheart?”
“I need to come,” I blurted out, bringing my hands to my heated cheeks.
He started a trail of kisses below my belly button until he claimed me with his mouth, his tongue and lips more urgent than the last time. Instead of tasting, he was devouring me with a crazed look in his eyes. My mouth fell open as my legs flailed back and forth, too crazy with need to stay still.
I never begged anyone to be inside me, but if he wasn’t in another five minutes, I’d burst into flames.
“Do you…have something…Yes, don’t stop.” I grabbed one of his pillows and held it over my face, my hips following his tongue as my need for more friction took over.
When I peeked out from behind the pillow, I found Anthony rummaging through his nightstand drawer. My stomach dipped when he pulled out an oversized box of condoms.
“This was a joke gift from one of my friends when I got…when I moved in.” He threw the box on the bed and stepped out of his jeans. “I’ve never used one because no one has been here. I meant what I said, Victoria.” He climbed back over me and bushed the damp hair off of my forehead. “No one but you for a very long time.”
“Shh,” I kissed his wet lips and reached for the box. “I don’t care, as long as I have you now.”
“Believe me, you have me,” he whispered, dropping his forehead to mine. “I’m warning you, once I’m inside you, I may lose it.”
I ripped the box open and detached a packet off the foil strip.
“Then that will make two of us.” I handed him the packet and watched as he stepped out of his boxers and kicked them to the side, his hard, and huge, erection bouncing against his ribbed stomach as he slid on the condom. Anthony was perfection all over, and I wished I could somehow make him believe that.
He eased inside me, the both of us exhaling in relief when he started to move. I cradled the back of his head and kissed him, long and deep as he panted through each thrust. Everything I wanted to say but couldn’t scratched at the back of my throat.
My heavy breathing hitched when he hooked my leg over his hip and drove into me.
“Too much?” He grasped my jaw, his damp brow furrowed.
I shook my head, digging my nails into his back.
“Not enough.”
His mouth crashed down on mine, snaking an arm around my waist to bring me as flush to his body as possible. There was no space left between us, yet it wasn’t close enough. I wanted him to both go faster and slow down so I could savor every inch as he slid in and out of me.
My legs tightened around him, shaking as the brink of release came closer. Finally, I fell, my lower body shuddering as my nails dug into his back. Anthony stiffened on top of me, muttering a curse before dropping his head onto my chest, his entire body damp and quivering.
We chased our breath in the otherwise eerily silent apartment. Anthony cinched his arms around me, still inside me and holding me as if I were slipping away.
“Wow,” my voice came out dry and raspy. “That was…wow.” I buried my head into his shoulder, so depleted that I couldn’t put a sentence together, not that I could describe what we’d just shared with words. It took everything out of me and filled me up all at once.
His throaty chuckle made me relax.
He painted kisses across my cheek, and I melted into a puddle onto the sheets. “If I didn’t know two sets of parents would come looking for you, I’d never let you leave.”
“About that.” I squinted, taking in the sweat on his brow and, for once, relaxed smile. “I told my parents, all of them, that I probably would be staying in the city at a friend’s house, tonight. If you wanted me to stay, they wouldn’t be expecting me or anything.” The corners of my mouth turned up.
Anthony shook his head and laughed. “IfI wanted you to stay?”
“Well I don’t want to overstay my welcome. But seriously, if you don’t want me to stay, I’d understand—”
“Stay with me, tonight.” He tucked a lock of hair behind my ear and grazed his finger over my bottom lip. “Please.”
“If you insist.” I exhaled a long sigh and settled on my side, throwing him a wink before he headed to the bathroom.
“I could get used to this,” I told him when he climbed back into bed. “I think we’d have a good couple of days before anyone noticed we were missing.”
I cuddled into his side and drifted my hand down his chest.
“I could gettooused to this.” Anthony gave me a quick kiss and drew me closer.
