She does, not because I tell her to, but because she’s getting wound up too. The way she leans in, her eyes watching, her lips parted. Hell, even her pupils are dilated.

She’s giving all the signs that she wants this, wants me, but instead of giving herself to me, she keeps all of her arousal to herself.

Talk about being greedy. I just… I want some, too.

Without thinking, I reach for her. Pushing her black strands back, I cup the back of her neck.

I want to kiss her.

She must see my hunger, and without warning, I watch her eyes widen. Deep down, I can see something I’m sure no one still breathing has.

Vulnerability.

Taking the risk of her biting my tongue off, I pull her to my mouth and make an attempt to kiss her. Her stroking falters, and she jerks back.

It’s not anger that’s filling her expression, but something else entirely.Hunger.

“You suck at kissing, too?” The words come out of me roughly. I sound like I’ve run a mile.

“I don’t like you doing whatever you want.” Her pink cheeks turn a shade deeper. I’ve embarrassed her, haven’t I?

“What if I ask nicely?” The question catches me off guard. When have I ever had to ask anyone for anything when it comes to pleasure? Raven isn’t any woman, though, is she? She’s someone who likes being on top. Likes having control.

She doesn’t like me because I always test that line she draws.

Leaning in, my thumb swipes at her cheek. It’s warm to the touch, either from her blush or the hit she stubbornly took. My mouth curls at her hesitation. “Will you kiss me, Raven? Let me discover what you taste like? I bet you’re secretly sweet, aren’t you?”

She answers me by squeezing my cockhard.Fucking hell. It hurts, but I can’t focus on the ache when she’s lifting up on her knees so she can press her lips to mine.

The kiss is a disaster. Our teeth clatter, her tongue darts and retreats with frantic, aimless energy. Christ. Whoever kissed her before should be shot for criminal negligence.

I break the kiss, just enough to see the confused defiance in her eyes. I’m going to have to teach her everything, aren’t I?

A slow, wicked smile spreads across my face. This is something I can definitely do.

Tangling my fingers in the silken dark hair, I tug at her. Her head tilts back, exposing the elegant line of her throat, and a delicious, sharp hiss escapes her lips. The sound goes straight to my gut.

“Keep stroking, beautiful,” I murmur, my voice a rough command against her parted mouth.

Now that she’s allowed me in, I swoop. But I don’t take over completely. Not this time. Instead, I slot our mouths together with careful precision, a perfect fit. I move my tongue against hers, a slow demonstration for her to learn by.

My tongue explores the seam of her lips, then the soft, hot interior of her mouth with a languid certainty that makes her tremble.

I’m mapping her, learning the little hitches in her breath, the way her own tongue grows bolder, trying to mimic my movements. The lesson is a two-way street, and I’m an eager student of every shudder I pull from her.

When her rhythm below begins to falter, I catch her full bottom lip between my teeth, applying just enough pressure to sting before soothing it with a slow, open-mouthed sweep of my tongue.

A raw groan rips from my chest, mingling with her broken moan. The sound vibrates between us, and her fist on me resumes its pace, tighter, more assured, guided by the cadence of my kiss.

Losing count of how long our tongues tangle and how many breaths we share, I have to pull away when I feel my body beginning to stiffen, my limit growing near. Trying to fight the rush building, I remind myself that something that feels so good isn’t meant to last forever.

“Just like that…” Panting, I have to stop myself from thrusting into her grip.

My toes curl tight as I feel my orgasm approaching closer and closer. Pulling away, I can’t stop the next moan that leaves my lips. As a familiarzingshoots up my spine, I’m quick to palm my head before my release gets on anything important.

Every pulse, every hot drip running down my length and her fingers, has me lightheaded.

Have all of my orgasms been this intense?
