“FuckI love the way you say my name like this,” I rasp, dragging my mouth across hers again. “I’ve waited a lifetime to hear my name on your lips this way. So desperate and needy and all fuckingmine, Noelle.”
She nods against my mouth, and I chuckle darkly through the interior of the car. My little angel has no idea what’s coming when we get to her place.
Chapter Seventeen
Noelle
He drives with one hand slung over the steering wheel, the other clasped firmly around my thigh just above my knee. The heat of his palm through the thin leggings is like a branding iron to my skin. I’m starting to realize that things will never be the same between Theo and me… he’s going to ruin me, I just know it.
Theo drives cautiously through the quiet, night darkened streets, the snow still coming down like crazy. When he pulls us into the driveway at my house, there’s no tire marks. Belle is gone for the holiday, spending it with her family a couple towns over. The house is dark and quiet, just the colorful Christmas lights strung up in the windows. I’m trying—and failing miserably—to control my breathing and the rapid thu-dunk of my heart in my chest. Theo puts his car in park and shuts off the engine, and then he’s reaching for me again.
His warm palm on the back of my neck scorches me down to my toes as he drags me across the console again, kissing me. God, kissing Theo is like nothing I’ve ever experienced.He’s thorough and demanding and holy holly berries, it’s justso good.
I try not to let myself think about how he got so good at this. All the other women that have enjoyed this side of Theo… He was standing just in front of me this entire time, and I was too blind to see it.
“When we get inside, I want these clothes off, understood?” he rasps against my mouth, his voice dark and demanding. I shiver, despite the heat still radiating through the interior of the car. “Everything but your panties and bra.”
I nod, my lips dragging against his, and then he’s gone, sliding out of the driver’s side door. I push open the passenger door, stepping out into the ankle-deep snow as he rounds the hood of the car. He extends his hand to me and I slip my hand into his, his long, tapered fingers twining closed around mine as he drags me to the front door. I’m laughing as we push inside the house, but the laughter dies abruptly.
His hands bracket my face and tip it upward to allow his mouth to cover mine, cutting off the laughter and every halfway coherent thought except for ‘Yes’. His body is pressed fully against mine, my back flat against the closed door. We’re ravenous for each other. My need for him is unparalleled, and my fingers fist into the hem of his shirt, yanking on it.
“You first,” he pants, breaking his mouth from mine. “I want to see you. Fuck, Noelle. I need to see you.”
His hands drop to my jacket, shoving it off my shoulders and down my arms. I’m kicking off my boots as gracefully as I can with his body still anchoring me to the door. My boots are kicked away at the same time my jacket falls to the floor, and then his hands are at my leggings, yanking them down my thighs. He kneels on one knee, pulling the leggings off my feet. He sucks in a breath as his palms slide up the outside of my thighs as hestands. Theo’s hands catch the hem of my sweatshirt as he rises, pulling it up and over my head in one fluid motion.
I shake my long, wavy hair as it falls back around my shoulders, and he takes a step back from me. His blue eyes are blazing hot as they trail over every inch of me. My sweatshirt falls from his fingers to the floor in a heap.
“Jesus help me,” he breathes, his gaze scorching as it travels over my body before raising back to mine. I shiver, anticipation settling low in my belly. “Have you had this on all night?”
Nodding, I blush, the heat making my cheeks flame.
He reaches out one hand, his fingers trailing over the red lace edge of my bralette before they slide down between my breasts, to the garter belt that’s strapped around my waist, then lower to the lacy edge of the matching thong. It’s totally impractical and I honestly have no other excuse for wearing the matched set other than pure vanity and wanting to feel pretty. But damn am I glad I did, because the look on Theo’s face right now is totally worth it.
“Who did you wear this for, Noelle?” he asks, his voice dropping low.
I shrug one shoulder, the blush creeping down my chest as embarrassment nearly chokes me. “No one.”
His jaw clenches. “You just decided to put this on for the hell of it? Who were you going to see later tonight?”
I’m taken aback by the harshness of his tone, but then I smile when the realization hits me. “Are you jealous, Theo?”
“Damn right I’m jealous,” he breathes, his fingers digging into the band of the garter belt. “Fuck, no one else gets to see you like this, Angel. This is for me.”
I raise one brow at him. “You think you can go all caveman on me, Theo?”
He leans forward, his mouth grazing over the corner of my upturned lips. “You haven’t seen caveman behavior yet. But keep that smart mouth up, and I’ll show you how I handle brats.”
“You’re a lot of talk, but I haven’t seen anything to back your game,” I breathe, taunting him. His dark, deep chuckle sends shivers down my spine, and I know I’ve just awoken the bear. Finally.
“If you move, I will bend you over and mark this ass up until it’s the same red as these—” he whispers, fingering the garter belt at my waist. “And if you don’t believe me, try me.”
He backs away, leaving me against the door, and I stay where I am, trembling.
“Good girl,” he praises, his voice low and thick. I damn near melt. He strips his clothes off, his shirt piling to the floor next to mine, and then he’s working at the buttons and zipper of his jeans at the same time that he toes off his boots.
His cock is hard and thick, straining against a pair of black, tight boxer briefs. My mouth drops open slightly at the sight. I can’t wait to see all of him. Wrap my fingers around the length of him, take him in my mouth—
“Don’t move,” he warns huskily as he kicks his jeans away. “Or do. I’d love to punish you for being naughty, Angel.”
