“I just need a moment, Addie. I want this, though,” Toni admitted.

“Tell me what you need.” Addie stroked her thumb over Toni’s hand, and there was no way to pretend in that moment that this was just casual sex. There was affection here, on both sides. Toni trusted her, wanted to please Addie, but she also wanted to feel Addie’s touch, mouth, whatevershewanted.

Stop this. Stop the whole thing.

Toni stared at her. “I need to touch you until I’m… until…”

“Comfortable?” Addie filled in.

When Toni nodded, Addie put one bare foot on the bedpost and leaned back. She watched Toni as she widened her legs. “I trust you, completely and wholly. If you are willing, I would like to put my mouth on you tonight. I want you to teach me how to please you, but if that’s not tonight, there will be other nights, I hope. So for right now…” She gestured at her body. “I believe you fake-married me so I could be right here. Do with me what you will, Lord Darbyshire. I’m yours tonight.”

Toni put the box to the side and stared at Addie. “You might just be the perfect woman, Lady Adelaine.”

Addie smiled up at her, and it felt different. Everything about tonight felt different.

This is what I wish I could have,Toni admitted to herself as she sat upright so she was facing Addie’s bare chest.

Toni shoved her traitorous thoughts away and touched Addie—her thighs, the delicate curve of her breast, the hollow of her collarbone, the swell of her hip—and everywhere her hands explored, her mouth followed.

Addie arched and twisted, but she let Toni have the control she needed. She didn’t grab her or try to reverse their positions, even as Toni pulled Addie onto the bed and slid down her body until her mouth found its way to Addie’s bare sex again.

“Toni…”

“Yes, love,” Toni asked.

“You haveall the control,” Addie swore. “You know that, don’t you? You have complete control of my body every time you want me. Give me alittleback.”

“You don’t want me to keep going?” Toni asked, unused to a lover who was so determined to find equality in the bed.

“I want to learn your body,” Addie half asked, half begged. “I want to know whatyoutaste like.”

Toni continued licking Addie leisurely, not fast enough to push her too near the edge but enough that Toni felt her own body grow wetter and wetter. There really was nothing quite as heavenly as the taste of a woman. The only things that compared were the scent of a woman’s desire and the sound of a woman in the throes of passion.

As Toni continued to taste Addie, she reached out to the box she’d left on the mattress.Addie’s vibrator.Toni slid it over Addie’s bare hip and toward the juncture of her thighs. “Shall we try this, then?”

“I’ve never used one with anyone.” Addie breathed the words. She stared at Toni. “Only you. Everything I have tried is with only you.”

That possessive thing flared up inside Toni again, and she knew that Addie was aware of it, and that she liked it. Addie was clever enough to realize that her words worked, and she used that freely.

She’s perfect for me.

Carefully Toni slid the still-motionless vibrator inside Addie’s dripping body. Then she brought her mouth back to Addie’s clit, suckling and licking until Addie was writhing. Toni paused and said, “Are you sure you want me to stop?”

“Pause,” Addie gasped. “Just pause so you… I want you to… feel good.”

Toni sat upright. “Pull your legs closed. Just like that, so the vibe stays where it is.”

Addie whimpered as she obeyed.

“Slide over,” Toni directed. “On your side.”

Once Addie did so, Toni moved so her legs were straddling Addie’s face. “Just do what you think would feel good if you were…” Toni’s words faded as Addie parted her folds and licked. Toni added, “Yes. Just like… that.”

Toni fumbled for the remote, as Addie devoted herself to making Toni unable to think. Addie’s moans felt as good as her tongue. Then Toni managed to find a setting that had Addie arching her hips.

Addie looked at her from the open frame of Toni’s legs and said, “No wonder you like this. Every time you moan, my body answers.”

Toni turned the remote to a faster speed.
