I want to tell him I love him.
I reach for his cock instead and squeeze hard enough for him to break away with a rough groan.
He tips his head back. “I want to fuck you so bad.”
“Don’t let me stop you.” I sink my teeth into his neck. “I’m never gonna say no to that.”
Tanner groans again. “Slight problem with that…I think I have the world’s oldest packet of lube in my wallet, but no condoms.”
“We don’t need them.”
“What?” Tanner raises his head, instantly alert and sober. “What do you mean?”
“I mean I haven’t slept with anyone since my wife, and that was four fucking years ago.”
He blinks. “Wow. That’s a long time.”
“Yeah, well. Shark food didn’t do it for her.”
Tanner’s fingertips instinctively skim my scars. Too many emotions to decipher flicker through his gaze. “She was a fucking fool.”
“I don’t want to talk about her. I’m just saying I’m good if you are.”
He sucks in a long, slow breath. “It’s been a while since I got tested, but I haven’t slept with anyone since. I mean, I’ve donestuff, but not—” He waves his hand to finish the sentence.
I get the picture. “So…we’re good?”
He licks his kiss-swollen lips. “I think so.”
We go back to the slow grind of kissing each other dizzy until he remembers the lube in his wallet. He drops it somewhere on the bed, and then kisses me again. He’s in no hurry, and I can dig it.
I roll us over so I’m above him again. Rain batters the windows, and lightning slashes the stormy night sky. The spooky darkness is almost Cornish. I gaze down at Tanner, at his inked chest as it rises and falls fast enough to let me know he’s as sweetly tormented by this as I am. His cock is hard beneath me. I want to ride him, but…not yet. I want to do something else first.
His dick is in my mouth before the thought completes. I scoot down his body and swallow him whole, sucking him down my throat.
“Fuck!” Tanner arches from the bed, and his hands fly to my head, fingers sinking into my hair. He stops himself from ramming into my mouth, but I don’t need him to. I’m ready for this. I’m ready forhim.
I work him as slowly as he kissed me. The build of pleasure is another puzzle piece, and I soak up his low moans and full-body shudders. I need him inside me, but I hold off as long as I can.
Long enough that he can’t take it.
He drags me off him and up the bed. “Ride me, or I’m gonna blow down your throat and roll you over for a second round.”
I laugh, but it’s cut off by his fingers slipping inside me, slicked with the lube he’s claimed while I’ve been having my fun with his cock. Like a laser, he finds every spot I need him to. My body pulses around him and my composure abandons me as if it never existed.
Shaking, I fall forwards and rock on his hand. He kisses me, and I melt into him as he lays a careful fire in me, stick by fucking stick. I’m sunbaked tinder to a spark. For a brief moment, I thought I had him…thought I had hope of controlling this, but I don’t. He’s too fucking good at this.
Tanner plays me until I’m out of my mind. We scramble for the next step. He holds me tight as I sink down on him, and bends his legs to hold me up.
Every inch of him fills me. He’s everywhere and it’s different to themanyother times we’ve fucked. He’s gazing at me as if it’s the first time, and I can’t get enough of that. I can’t get enough of every facet of him.
He flexes his powerful body, moving inside me, urging me on. I take the hint and ride him as slowly as the fire in my gut will let me. Pressure becomes pure pleasure. He meets me in the middle and we move together, lips fused, swallowing the desperate sounds that come from heat like this.
Sensation coalesces, gaining power. It’s a gale that becomes a hurricane, and I couldn’t stop it if I tried.
I don’t try. I hitch a ride on the storm and press down harder, taking Tanner as deep he can go. He grips my hips and drives up into me. My dick is trapped between his abdomen and mine. I can’t reach it, but I don’t need to. He’s gonna make me come without ever touching my cock.
“Jax.”
