“I know you better than you think, Baby D. All these years of us bickering was me trying to suppress my attraction to you. Maybe it was the sad look in your eyes when you watched Sam and Juliet, or maybe because I really did plan to sleep around to get Tina out of my system, but I was done acting like I don’t want you.”
I was glad we weren’t facing each other. My face faltered. “Are you using me to get over Tina, then?”
“Are you using me to learn that some men aren’t assholes in bed?”
Ah, he repeated my own words right back at me. “Touché, Cooper.”
“There’s no ulterior motive here. I just stopped pretending I didn’t want this. The lime incident was a test. If you weren’t comfortable or didn’t want me, you wouldn’t have done it.”
“True,” I said, grabbing a sip of his beer and setting it down before nuzzling into him again. “But I did it to get more points than you.”
“More points?”
“In our flirt-hate game. The scale always swung between my favor or yours. Whenever I thought you got the best of me, I had to even it. Like when you walked around with your dick out before dinner, I needed to put some points on my side, so I gave you my panties.”
“Jesus, woman.” He laughed and rocked his erection into my ass. “I knew you were dangerous, but fuck. I love when you challenge me. What else have you done like this?”
“Mmm,” I paused, thinking about all the games I’d played in the past. “One time you made a comment about wearing a bra, so instead of hiding my nipples, I went to the bathroom and played with them until they were even harder points. You were really pissed at me that day.”
“You’re going to kill me, and I’m okay with it.” He dug his hands into my hips and leaned forward to kiss my neck. “Are you on the pill?”
“Yes, why?”
“Are you clean?”
“Cooper,” I said, my throat all scratchy and my voice husky. “I am, why?”
“I want to slide into you right now. Knowing you teased me and fucked with me all these years has me hard as a rock.” He lifted me up, spread my thighs, and waited. “I just got tested because I didn’t trust Tina. I’m good.”
“Me too.” My voice shook as I said the words, realizing again the weight of them. Trust wasn’t easily given, and while I might not feel safe with him when it came to my heart, I did with my body. Cooper would never risk anything with me, and knowing he would be the first to go bare got me even wetter. “I trust you.”
That’s all it took before he slid into me, completely bare, andholy shit.He felt so goddamn good without any barriers. He took his time going in and out, making sure to hit me in my g-spot with each slow thrust. I saw stars behind my closed eyes as the pressure built.
His grip on me threatened to be painful as he sped up, but I didn’t care. He pounded into me hard and without mercy. Cooper lost control, and I loved it. I did this to him. I made the hottest man I had ever known lose his mind, and the feeling was dangerous because I wanted to do it again and again.
“You’re so tight and wet. Shit,” he hissed between pants. He moved us so I was on my hands and knees on the chair, and he held one leg up before he plunged harder and deeper into me. One hand rested on my ass and kneaded it. “This okay, baby?”
“Yes,” I moaned, holding onto the chair for dear life at the way he pounded into me. It was the hottest thing I had ever experienced, and I wanted more. He pulled my hair from the tie, and my locks spilled down my back and over my face. He wrapped them around one of his hands and pulled.
“I love your fucking hair,” he groaned, his body getting tense against me. “Shit, I’m going to come.”
He gave three final thrusts before he stilled, pulling my hair harder as he grunted and moaned my name. It was wild, passionate, andhotas fuck. My core still throbbed with need. He pulled out and unbuttoned his shirt before he took it off me to wipe between my legs. “Dani, I say this with absolute certainty. I’m just getting started with you.”
“Is that so?” I said as he kissed each ass cheek and tossed the dirty shirt to the floor. He spun me around so our naked bodies were chest to chest, and the look in his eyes should’ve worried me. It was intense, tender, and almost gentle. Instead of analyzing it, I kissed him. He hummed into my mouth for a second before pulling back.
“Yes.”
“So, we fool around all weekend then?”
The warmth evaporated in his eyes like a snap of my fingers. He swallowed and said with a slow pronunciation of each word. “Is that what you want?”
I blinked at the lack of confidence. He usually oozed charm and flirted with being too cocky, but that guy was nowhere to be seen. This side of Cooper was sweet and nervous. “Is that what you want?”
“Don’t play this game with me. Be honest.”
“I don’t know. I don’t regret this, but with Sam and all the ways this could go wrong...is it worth it?”
There. I said my piece, and he could do with it what he wanted.
