“Do you want me to kiss you, Cade baby?” he whispered.

CADEN
Pulling in a desperate breath, I was stunned with pleasure as I absorbed his words.
The endearment coming from Ash had an electric current lighting up every cell in my body, as if I’d been asleep all the moments before he spoke and he’d found the key to open a portal of desire that I’d kept hidden, even from myself.
I wasn’t made to handle this much incredibleness at once. The buzz in my veins threatened to split me wide open.
I wanted to hear him call me “Cade baby” over and over on an endless loop.
Ash’s lips curved in a smile; he looked pleased.
Unable to speak because I wanted it so much, I managed a nod while holding his gaze, so he’d know I meant it.
“No,” I shook my head, secretly thrilled by the hint of a pout that formed on his lips. “I want to kiss you, Ash. Okay?
My question was met with a nod as he shifted his body against mine.
I instantly eliminated the few inches between our faces, taking his lips with my own. The pressure of his mouth was exquisite.
I barely had a chance to appreciate the softness of his lips before Ash pushed deeper into the kiss. His tongue flirted over the seam of my mouth, beckoning me to open.
I may have started the kiss, but Ash was feeding the fire between us.
Swamped with so many sensations at once, I only wanted to follow his lead.
I parted my lips, eager to experience the feel of our tongues gliding against each other.
Ash pressed his tongue forward to rub against mine with another rough moan that vibrated into my mouth. His reaction had me greedily seeking out more of his lips, teeth, and tongue.
In the rush of the kiss, I hadn’t noticed that my hands had moved to the back of his neck and into the long, dark brown waves of his hairline, until a tiny nip of his teeth on my lower lip had me tightening my grip on his hair.
The added sensation elicited another rumble in his chest, heightening my awareness of the friction of his chest hair brushing against my bare skin. Pressed together as we were, the vibrations felt like he was transferring the heat of his desire directly into my chest.
One of Ash’s hands skimmed from my lower back to grip my hip, his calloused thumb began stroking the sensitive skin near my hipbone, just above the waistband of my briefs.
I lit up like a thousand fireworks had been set off in my groin.
He applied more pressure to his hand so that the caress of his thumb turned into full-on stroking of my heated skin.
I shifted my lower body, wanting more of Ash’s hands touching me everywhere, and at the same time, overwhelmed by all of the pleasure my nerves were capable of taking in.
My movements had our pelvises pushed more firmly together, and I gasped when my barely covered dick rubbed upagainst the rock-hard length fighting to be released from his jeans.
“Ash, god. . .” I rasped, pulling back slightly, but not far enough to separate our mouths completely, causing me to speak the words directly onto his lips.
“Mmm, Cade baby,” he hummed.
The gravel in his voice sent another shiver through my pelvis, making my dick throb and my muscles ache to push, rub, or grab some part of him that I could pull into me to soothe the need ratcheting up inside me.
He claimed my lips for another consuming kiss, our combined rough stubble rubbing deliciously. The raw heat and prickling of my skin were a sharp contrast to the glide of our mouths.
Fuck. My dick pulsed with that nickname again. If I wasn’t careful, I was going to blow my load in my underwear.
But in the realization of how close I was to getting off, I must have hesitated because Ash broke the kiss.
