I yanked my shirt over my head and proceeded to shed the rest of my clothes until I was standing in front of her, both of us as naked as the day we were born. I moved forward, she moved back, like a hunter and its prey. We did that little dance until the back of her knees hit the edge of the mattress and she tumbled onto her back, me following her down.
I scooted her to the center of the bed and hovered over her, my eyes pinned on hers. “I know we’re crossing a line, but I needyou to know that no matter what happens you will always be my best friend.”
“Really? What about Lyric or the other guys?”
“Nope, that title has always and will always be yours, Cupcake. The guys will get over it because you being my best friend will never change. Even when I was gone, that place in my heart was reserved for you and I told everyone so.”
Lake sucked in a deep breath. “You told people about me?”
I felt the frown on my face crease my forehead, causing wrinkles as displeasure swept through me. My action caused her to believe when I walked away that I forgot about her altogether, which was the farthest from any truth.
“Of course I did. You were never far from my mind, sweetheart. I told you before and I will tell you until you believe me. I was an idiot.”
“I’m not disagreeing there,” she said teasingly.
I was about to make a snappy comeback but then she giggled and her body shook against mine, the vibration going straight to my dick. I couldn’t wait any longer.
“Are you ready for me to make you mine?”
Lake arched her back, her core pressing against mine and a deep groan rumbled from my chest.
“Yes,” said softly. “Make me yours.”
“Fair warning, I have to be inside you now but I promise that I will worship every inch of your gorgeous body in the next round.” I could barely talk, my breathing heavy just from having our naked flesh meshed together. “Wrap your arms around my neck, sweetheart. And hang on tight. Things are about to get explosive.”
Her kisses did me in so I knew the second I entered her, everything I had ever known would seem like nothing compared to making love to Lake.
She was my everything.
Chapter Twenty-One
LAKE
Explosive was an understatement.
I never imagined I’d be dropping my panties for my best friend. But the second he touched me I knew it had been a phenomenal decision. I’d grown wet with need instantly.
Bronson had been propped up on one hand and slid his other down between us finding me primed and ready as he shoved my knees apart with his leg.
He was being gentle—probably because I’d opened my mouth about my inexperience—and I knew it was at a price to himself because his hand shook when he grabbed his condom-covered cock, trying to control the raw need I saw in his eyes as he slowly pushed his thick length inside me and began to move.
My walls tightened around him, his dick pulsed against them, sending me somewhere I’d never been before. He rhythmically pulled out and then buried himself to the hilt again, over and over.
That’s when things went nuclear.
The earth shook, mountains moved and I saw stars as my orgasm built to epic proportions. The noises I made were foreign to my ears and the scream that ripped from my lungs as Iclimaxed could be heard miles away. I bit down on Bronson’s shoulder and that did it. He followed me over the edge.
I swear I heard angels singing.
Careful not to hurt me, he rolled to his side, his big palm on my hip and turned me to face him. I melted into him. We lay there trying to get our breathing under control, staring into each other's eyes.
Then ever so gently, he leaned over and kissed my forehead, my nose, and then my mouth. It was a gesture as sweet as my nickname. His calloused thumb did lazy circles on my bare skin causing goosebumps to trickle across every inch of my skin.
He slid his hand to my butt. “You have the most glorious ass.” His big palm kneaded my skin and I whimpered.
I wantedmore.
“You know you don’t have to handle me with kid gloves.”
