“Oh fuck, oh fuck, oh fuck…” she panted, squeezing her thighs tightly against mine each time I brought her down. My movements were rough, her rhythm was jerky. I lifted one hand, gripped her face, and brought her mouth to mine again, kissing her hard. Our tongues tangled while she grinded on my dick. It was rough, and intense, and felt so damn good.
“Shit, oh fuck you’re deep.” She came seconds later, dropping her head back.
“Not deep enough,” I murmured.
I lifted her one last time, slammed her down, and came hard, filling the condom, wishing it wasn’t between us. I pulled her into my chest and kissed her forehead, smiling from the way her heart and mine both thumped erratically. I moved my hands up and down her spine before I pulled her deeper into my chest.
“I need sleep,” she mumbled against my neck and I kissed her forehead again.
“We’ve got work to do. I made you a promise and I’m a man of my word.” I tapped her thigh. “Let’s go, beautiful. Shower, then we’re polishing jewelry.”
Reece groaned and lifted off my dick, making me regret making the quest, but I also didn’t mind the view from down here as she headed out of the room.
I was in so much damn trouble with this woman, and even though this was a problem I didn’t need, I wasn’t going anywhere unless she asked me to.
“Does it hurt?”Reece brushed her fingers down my spine over the scarring. I tensed from the contact because she was the only person to ever touch me there. The other women I had been with after my accident never even acknowledged the scars. I thought that was what I wanted, but now, feeling the light touch of Reece tracing the imperfections in my skin made something I couldn’t process surface. It felt like acceptance for what my life was now and who I was.
“Not really. I know they’re there. But touching them doesn’t bother me. I still feel pain in my back and spine, but it’s more internal than on the surface.” I glanced down at her over my shoulder right before she leaned in and pressed a kiss just below my shoulder blade. Her arms looped around my waist and she locked her hands over my stomach.
“I’m sorry this happened.”
“You didn’t throw me off that horse, baby. No need for you to be sorry.”
She grinned. “You called me baby.”
“You don’t want me to?”
She released my body and dipped around me, gently shoving me back so she had full access to the steamy spray from the showerhead. She allowed the soap to be rinsed from her body, grabbing my complete attention from the way her hands moved over her skin, making sure all the suds were gone. Once complete, she reached for her washcloth and filled it with soap once more.
This was more of a performance than an effort to get clean, which I enjoyed by tracking the suds that covered parts of her skin, exposing the chocolate hue as they did a slow crawl over her curves. Something so simple turned sensual as suds moved over her breasts and between them, down her stomach, and between her thighs.
“You can call me whatever you want as long as you mean it.” She grinned and I moved forward, dropping my hands to her ass, pulling her body to mine. “I mean it, but no matter what I feel, you have to want to be mine.” I bent my neck, leveling my face over hers. “You wanna be mine, Reece?”
She pulled her lip between her teeth and her brows pinched like she was thinking. When mine arched slowly, she released her lip and smiled. “Yes, but I also want you to be mine.”
“You got that.”
“Do I?”
“Yeah, you do.”
“And what does that mean?”
“I’m staying until you tell me to leave, and if you tell me to leave, I’m going to give you enough reason to rethink that decision because I’m not going anywhere. I like this, and us, too much to not have it in my life.” I gripped her chin and dropped my mouth to hers, delivering a kiss.
“Come on, we have work to do.” I brushed my mouth over hers and washed one last time before I got out and grabbed a towel, securing it around my waist. I then lifted a second one, which I held open and waited for Reece to step into. I was a man of my word and I made a promise to help Reece finish her orders so that was exactly what I planned on doing.
Chapter 10
Reece.
When I woke up the next morning, I groaned, feeling exhausted from barely getting any sleep. We worked on my orders until three in the morning then climbed into bed together, crashing as soon as our heads sank into the pillow.
Ro was in my bed. The thought brought a smile to my face and had me shifting beneath the weight of his arm across my waist, turning onto my side to stare at him. God, he was so damn handsome. So damn sexy and according to him, so mine.
The features of his face were relaxed, giving me the chance to fully take him in. I got caught on his lips, remembering how they’d felt on me last night. Having those very skilled lips on me daily would definitely be worth taking a risk with him. I inched closer and brushed my mouth over his, thinking about our conversation in the shower.
He wants this, us, and said he was going to be here…
