“Hell.” His breath was a harsh rasp. His hands moved to her breasts, cupping, molding them to his palms as he kissed her in an explosion of heat. Katie’s tongue found the inside of Cubby’s mouth, stroking, seeking. She lost all reason, all sense, and simply existed by touch and feel as they explored each other.
“Sit.” She placed a hand on his chest and pushed. He obliged by falling back on the edge of the bed, bracing his hands behind him. Katie then stepped between his thighs. Raking her fingers through his hair, she took his mouth again. She kissed her way down to his jaw and then gently bit the hard edge before moving to his neck. His breath was rapid as she travelled slowly down his body, running her tongue over each hard line, giving him soft bites and trailing her fingers up his thighs.
“I’m dying here.”
She dropped to her knees and looked up at him with a slow, sensual smile. “But what a way to go?”
“Something like that,” he gritted out as she grabbed the hot hard length between his thighs. She stroked down and back up before taking him into her mouth.
“I don’t want to know where you learned that.”
Katie wasn’t sure actually, as she’d only ever slept with one man and it was nice, but nothing like this. The tension building inside her body rose with Cubby’s as she tormented him with her mouth. His hands fisted in her hair, tugging hard, the bite of pain urging her on until she felt him grip her waist.
“Now it’s your turn.”
He laid her on the bed, and to Katie he looked magnificent, his big, solid body gleaming with sweat, eyes fierce with passion, and then she couldn’t think anymore as he bent at the waist and gave her the most intimate kiss of all. Katie arched off the bed as he ran his tongue over the sensitive folds then stroked the small hard bud between her thighs.
“Cubby.” Katie breathed his name but he didn’t answer, instead pushing her over the edge with his fingers inside her, driving her to find her release, which she did in a shuddering wave of ecstasy.
Limp as a rag doll, she watched as he grabbed the condom, tore it open, and sheathed himself. He then braced his hands on either side of her head and looked into her eyes as he entered her in one hard thrust.
“You feel good, princess.”
“Sooo good,” she managed.
He drove into her again and again, and Katie lifted her legs, wrapping them around his waist. She felt the wonderful tension inside her build again until it was almost too much. He took her higher and higher, and then she was scaling the summit once more, his jaw clenched hard, head thrown back as he followed her.
The only sound in the small space was their harsh breathing as he lowered himself down beside her, his chest rising and falling rapidly with hers. Katie closed her eyes, let her legs dangle over the bed, and tried to regroup. Her body felt like she would slide right off if she tried to stand.
“You okay? I didn’t hurt you, princess?”
“No.”
“You sure, because I was rough.”
Katie managed to pry her eyes open and found him looking down at her.
“You didn’t hurt me.”
He looked doubtful.
“Cubby, you could never hurt me… would never hurt me, I know that.”
There was something there in his eyes but she wasn’t sure what it was.
“Nobody knows that.” He climbed off the bed and disappeared after those strange words. When he returned, Katie was still in the same position.
“You tired, baby?”
“Yes.” She yawned.
He lifted her into his arms and placed her on the pillow, then slid in beside her.
“Sleep now, and I’ll watch over you.”
Katie forced her eyes open again and turned to face him. She touched his cheek, then leaned forward and placed a soft kiss on his lips. They clung for brief seconds and then she rested her head against his chest and closed her eyes.
Cubby felther body ease into sleep. His arms protected her, shielding her from the demons that were bound to reappear once she was in a deep sleep.
