His fingers flicked back and forth over the same spot that had sent sparks through her moments earlier, but this time instead of sparks that faded, they built.
“I’ve got you, little dove.Let go.Let it happen.”The rough rumble of Hawkeye’s voice combined with the way his breath feathered across the exposed skin of her lower tummy sent all thoughts from her mind as her body seemed to take over.Muscles clenched, parts of her that she didn’t think about seemed to throb.She gasped then let her head fall back as her vision went white.Her toes curled and she couldn’t help but cry out.
“Hawkeye!”
“Tell me what you need, baby.Tell me and I’ll give it to you.”
“I—I don’t know!It feels good.So good, but it’s not enough.Something’s wrong.”Her voice sounded odd, even to her.Her head thrashed back and forth on the pillow and she was unable to keep her hips from lifting toward him, as if silently begging for something.
She felt him moving between her thighs again, but she couldn’t gather the strength to lift her head and look.When the heat of is mouth covered her center, she almost came up off the bed.Only his arm across her lower belly kept her in place.Before she could ask what he thought he was doing, his tongue swiped the length of her slit, then made a circle that would have sent her to her knees, if she’d been standing.
Pressure at her entrance had her tensing, preparing for the pain that always came, but what she could only assume was fingers slid slowly inside and she felt only stretching.She let the pleasure from everything else he was doing wash over her once more, taking away all her worries.She lost track of time and what he was doing to her.Her entire body sang, and while she’d never felt like this before, it was amazing.
Chapter Twenty-Three
She was so responsive, Hawkeye wanted to see how many times he could get her to come before she begged him to stop but decided it might be too much too soon.Still, he couldn’t resist curling the two fingers deep inside her, hitting that spot that so many had a hard time finding.Her back arched and she nearly came off the bed as every one of her muscles clenched.Her inner muscles squeezed his fingers as she let out a high-pitched keening.He sucked harder on her clit, milking her orgasm for every drop of pleasure he could give her before he gently slid his fingers from inside her and pulled away.
He wanted nothing more than to be balls deep in her right now, but she wasn’t ready for that.He’d told her what would happen, and she hadn’t agreed to it, not yet.He wasn’t taking that choice away from her—she’d had too few choices in her life already.
Instead, he forced himself to lie beside her, watching her and waiting for her to come back to herself.He couldn’t help the surge of pride that washed through him that he’d done such a good job of showing his little dove how wonderful sex could feel that it took her several minutes before she turned her head to give him a sated smile.
“That was amazing, but you didn’t get anything from it.Why not?”
“I did get something,” Hawkeye caressed one side of her face as he watched her.“It just wasn’t the same thing you got.”
She frowned and he could tell she didn’t know what he meant.
“I got to watch you come apart, little dove.I got to taste you and, damn, you’re addicting.If I’m not careful, I might revise that rule about getting inside you.”
“But why didn’t you?”she asked, a crease forming between her brows.
“Because I told you.Once I’m inside you, you’re mine.Once you’re mine, there’s no going back.I want you to be sure before you commit to spending the rest of your life with me.I’m a bit of an asshole and I tend to get lost in what I’m doing when I’m in the middle of a project.”He tilted the top of his head toward the computer system on the desk at the foot of the bed.“I don’t want you agreeing in haste then bashing my head in later when you can’t get me away from a screen for whatever reason.”He gave her a lopsided grin and hoped she would find it endearing.
“That was amazing.I had no clue it could be like that.”
“Little one, I know it’s hard to believe, but it gets even better.It should never hurt ...well, after the first time.Or unless you like pain, but that’s different.”
