IWAS NERVOUS.WHATKIND of sense did that make?I’d been naked and tied up with this man, on my knees with his cock down my throat.He had given me handfuls of orgasms.It wasn’t like it was our first date or something.Wekneweach other.I don’t know if it was my talk with Meredith and dragging my emotions out into the clear light of day or if it was because he’d agreed to open his house on the home tour for me.Something I knew he didn’t want to do.Something he’d done because he at least had some kind of feelings for me beyond the tie me up/tie me down kind.Regardless of the reason, something had changed.
He didn’t touch me on the ride to his house.His hands stayed at ten and two and his gaze straight ahead, as if he was demanding the distance to close between us and our destination by sheer force of will.He pulled the car into the circle behind the house and was out his door and around to my side of the car before I managed to get free of my seat belt.Instead of offering me his hand or some other kind of civilized response, he hoisted me up into his arms, planting his shoulder in my mid-section in a kind of fireman’s carry.
“Neanderthal!”I gasped out between giggles.
“And proud of it.”
He smacked my ass hard enough to make me yelp and then we were through the door and up the stairs to his bedroom, and I lost my breath for a completely different reason.I’d gotten a quick glimpse of the room on our previous tour, but I’d never been inside.We played in the playroom or in his sitting room.We’d never done anything as mundane as get in bed together, but there it was, standing like the down pillow duvet-covered equivalent of a flashing neon sign.
Erik set me on my feet just long enough to cradle my face in his hands and kiss me like I was the air he needed to breathe and then his fingers went to work on my shirt.He wrestled with the tiny buttons, his fingers uncharacteristically clumsy.
“Take it off,” he said, his voice strained in a way that sent heat curling low in my body.“All of it.I want every single scrap of clothing between your skin and my mouth off.Now.”
I made quick work of the buttons while he yanked on his tie, freeing it from his collar with a snap that made my mouth water.He undid two buttons and then grabbed the open collar of his shirt and hauled it over his head.I paused in the middle of toeing off my shoes to drink in his spectacular chest.Seriously, there were valleys and ridges etched across the planes of his stomach, and I planned to follow every single one.With my tongue.
“Move, Alex,” he said, reaching for his belt.
I slid off my heels and made quick work of my blouse and skirt.I’d worn white lace panties and a sheer white demi bra because he seemed to like the naughty librarian thing.I’d smoothed my hair into a French twist for the same reason.At the moment, he didn’t look like he was interested in anything other than devouring me.He pinned me with his gaze as I stripped off the lace, baring myself completely.The naked hunger in his eyes made my mouth water and I took a step closer and reached for his waistband.
“Not this time.”He twisted out of my grasp.“On the bed, beautiful, back against the pillows, knees up and legs spread wide.Hold onto the headboard and don’t let go until I tell you or I’ll bind you in place so you can’t get away from me.”
The implied threat added an edge to my desire and for a fraction of a second, I debated defying him to see what would happen.Then he pushed his pants over his hips, revealing his hard cock stretching out from under the waistband of his boxer briefs, and my focus narrowed to finding the fastest way to get him in bed with me.To take him inside me.
Unwilling to look away for even a moment, I scooted up the bed until my back hit the wall of pillows.Keeping my gaze pinned to the gorgeous half-naked man in front of me, I reached over my head and grabbed the metal bar on the headboard.The position pushed my breasts forward but he kept his attention on my face while he stripped off the last of his clothing.His hard, thick cock jutted in front of him and I licked my lips—not from some artificial attempt at seducing him—because I couldn’t wait to take him in my mouth and suck him until his head fell back and the muscles of his neck tensed as he came apart under my tongue.
“Fuck, Alex.The way you’re looking at me.”He shook his head as he stalked toward me.“Spread your legs for me, sweetheart.The sooner I make you come, the sooner I can give both of us what we want.”
Bending my knees, I hurried to comply.I planted the heels of my feet in the soft duvet and opened my legs, letting him see every inch of me, exposing every bit of my already soaked sex.
“That’s it, beautiful.You are so fucking wet.Just for me.For me to taste.For me to fuck.”
Erik crawled onto the bed and my stomach tightened in anticipation.We’d done plenty of things to each other.I’d had lots and lots of orgasms with this man, but we’d never been together like this.Both of us naked.The filthy, possessive words pushed every one of my boundaries and made me want to give everything to this man who’d somehow made me feel so much.
“I’m close,” I said, my voice a breathy whisper.“I’m already so close.Fuck me, please.”
His answering growl stripped the last of my control and reduced me to begging.
“Please, Erik.I need you to fuck me.Please.”
He moved up my body and for a moment, I thought he’d relent and give me what I knew we both wanted.Instead, he kissed me, cupping my head and working my hair free from its pins.
“Not yet.I want you so much it hurts but when I finally sink into your tight little pussy, I’m not going to be able to stop myself, so you have to come first.”
He nipped at my earlobe and I tipped my head, baring my throat to him like an animal for her mate.For the first time in my life, I realized what it meant to hand that kind of control to someone else.The idea rocked me to my core, but I didn’t doubt for a second that Erik was man enough to handle it, to trust with everything.
“Don’t distract me or we’re going to have to start all over again.”He scraped his teeth gently over the pulse point at the base of my throat and then worked his way down my body until he was wedged between my thighs.
Palming my ass, he kissed me, sucking on my clit and tracing my labia with the flat of his tongue.I white-knuckled the headboard, desperate to hold on, to stay still so he had no reason to make good on his threat.I was already so close just from imagining this moment.It wouldn’t take anything to push me over the edge.Pressing his thumb against my opening, he wrapped his lips around my clit and sucked, hard rhythmic pulses that pushed me higher and higher, desire coiling tight deep inside until there was nowhere else for it to go.No way to hold it inside me.
“Erik.Fuck.God, I’m coming.”
He kept up the delicious, relentless onslaught with his mouth until my legs shook and I was squirming to get a break to catch my breath.
“Please,” I said, tears leaking from the corners of my eyes.“I need ...”
“I know, baby.”He pressed his lips to the inside of my thigh before sucking on the tender skin.Knowing I’d wear his mark gave me a perverse amount of pleasure.Even if he and I were the only ones who knew.I didn’t want to think about what that meant.I didn’t want to think about my feelings or anything beyond finally taking Erik inside me.
