For a few seconds, I waged an internal argument about whether or not I should carry her into the house, but she ground her hips against mine and the decision was made.
I knelt in the grass with Merry astride my thighs. She didn't even hesitate before she yanked my shirt off and unbuckled my belt.
In less than a minute, we were both naked in the grass. Merry pushed me back onto the ground and leaned down to kiss me.
Her skin was warm under the sunlight and soft as water. I skimmed my thumbs over her nipples, loving the way she shivered against me. She arched into my touch as she ran her hands over my chest and shoulders.
Sweat broke out over my skin when her fingers danced over my cock.
Maybe someday her touch wouldn't destroy me, but I didn't anticipate that happening for a long, long time.
"We have to hurry," she murmured, positioning my cock so she could envelope me.
I squeezed her hips. "No, we don't."
"Yes, we do," she argued, taking me in fully with a gasp. "Well,Ido."
Her hips undulated against mine as she leaned down to kiss me again.
Within minutes, tension seized her muscles and she tightened around me. Merry tilted her head, offering me her neck in a gesture that never failed to move me.
I bit her just as her body began to buck against mine, dragging a cry from her lips.
Our minds connected and I felt what she felt—the pleasure, the joy. The love.
Her hands cupped my head as her body surged against mine and drew taut.
I drank from her, each pull of my mouth drawing a trembling gasp from her lips.
Finally, I released her and licked her neck to seal the wounds.
Merry collapsed against me, her heart thudding against my chest. Her lips touched the side of my neck, almost in the exact spot where I'd bitten her.
"Someday, I'll get to take my time," I murmured.
"No one rushed you this time."
I huffed out a tired laugh. "Says the woman who insisted that she was in a hurry."
Merry nuzzled my throat. "Okay, so you have a point." She sighed. "There was another reason we needed to hurry."
I stroked a hand over her back. "What was that?"
"I sunburn easily and I estimate we've been naked outside for about twenty minutes, which means I'll be turning into a lobster in the next fifteen."
I glanced at her shoulders and back and saw a distinct rosy tint to her pale skin. "Yeah, you're turning pink."
I sat up, taking her with me, and she grunted. It took some maneuvering to get to my feet, but I managed it. I staggered the first couple of steps but had her on the back porch in a few minutes. I opened the back door, carried her inside, and straight to the guest bedroom where we both slept now because the bed was bigger.
She laughed when I dropped her on the bed, leaning back on her elbows. "So chivalrous."
I went to the dresser, pulled a pair of shorts out of the bottom drawer, and tugged them on. "I'll be right back."
I went outside to gather our clothes and found Merry in the shower when I returned. Since I was almost certain I had grass stains on my ass, I stepped in behind her.
And promptly yelled bloody murder.
"What the hell?!" I tried to back out of the spray, but the stall was so cramped there was nowhere to go. "Why is the water cold?"
