It was an onslaught of sensations. Possession and desire and urgency rolled into one.
He found a spot behind her ear with his mouth and nibbled while his finger thrust in and out of her, and his thumb worked her clit.
“Cody…” she gasped, tightening her legs around his waist and tugging him into her. Telling him with her body what she needed, she reached between them, wrapping her fingers around his cock once again and positioning him at her entrance.
He growled as he withdrew his finger, and she nudged him inside her. Heat flared in her belly as he found her lips again. He’d just pushed in another inch when she pressed at his chest.
He stopped immediately, his mouth separating from hers. “Are you okay?”
“You’re not wearing anything.”
His muscles bunched beneath her fingertips and he cursed under his breath before reaching into the pocket of his jeans and pulling out a condom. He tore it open with his teeth before slipping it over his cock. Then he was back between her thighs, his tip pressing at her entrance.
This time, his kiss was gentler. More of a graze. One swipe. Two.
“I need to tell you something, Harper.”
He expected her to understand words when he was inching inside her? “What?”
Another kiss, then words whispered against her skin. “I’m falling in love with you.”
Her heart slammed against her ribs, any remnants of calm splintering. The action was so sudden and violent it stole her breath. “Love?”
His gaze bore into hers. “Yeah, Storm. Love.”
Three breaths, each as shaky as the last. Then, “I’m falling in love with you too, Cody.”
The words were so easy to say out loud. Like they’d been there at the surface for a while, waiting to be released.
His eyes darkened to an almost black shade, then his mouth slammed to hers again as he thrust inside her. Her scream was silenced by his mouth. By his tongue melding with hers.
He began to thrust, his hand returning to her breast, kneading. Palming.
Everything burned. Her limbs. Her skin. Even her lips felt like they were alight at the way he kissed and devoured her.
When his thrusts became faster, she tugged her mouth from his and threw her head back. The sounds spilling from her chest were so primal, she almost didn’t recognize them as her own.
His head dipped and he once again wrapped his lips around her nipple and sucked, his tongue sweeping her bud back and forth.
She was so close to the edge she could feel the foundation crumbling beneath her. Then his hand returned to her clit and swiped, and she fell, her walls clenching his cock as she broke around him.
The sweet soundof Harper’s orgasm shot straight into Cody’s chest, piercing his heart. He released her nipple and lifted his head, watching the array of emotions play over her features. The complete relief and vulnerability.
Fucking gorgeous. Every inch of her. And his. She was all his.
He kept thrusting as her walls pulsed around him. As her desperate moans pierced the air. He wanted to stretch this moment. To stay inside her for endless minutes. But too soon, he reached that cliff edge, and he couldn’t hold on. He fell. Shattered so fiercely and violently that he barely knew how his legs kept him upright.
He thrust into her until he had nothing. Nothing but her.
When he finally stilled, the silence slipped around them, beating over his skin and holding him in place.
Both their breaths came quickly, and on every inhale, Harper’s breasts grazed his chest.
He touched his forehead to hers. “You’re unbelievable, Harper.”
Her eyes closed, fingers slipping behind his neck. “Only when I’m with you.”
She still didn’t get it. She was the sun, the moon, and every damn star in the sky. She was everything, all the time, regardless of who she was with.
