It was a bit embarrassing to admit it out loud to him, especially knowing that all four of the guys were probably way more experienced than I was.
Maverick seemed to digest the information for a moment before he leaned back and tugged me with him, pulling me into his lap. “Can I ask why?”
For a moment I was worried I’d ruined the mood by admitting the fact that I was technically a virgin to him, that it was too much for the alpha that was already going against his own morals to do this with me and that he was about to send me on my merry way without the sex that I was craving so badly.
“It just never felt right to do it that way,” I said with a shrug. “I’m not a prude, nor do I really believe in waiting for marriage or true love or anything like that… but I did want to have sex with someone that I liked? I guess? I never liked anyone enough before.”
“And you do now?”
I nodded, tucking my face into his neck and inhaling deeply. The suppressants had all but worn off so his scent was thick and heady, making my head spin. “A scent match. I think that’s what I’ve been waiting for.”
“I see…” Maverick trailed off thoughtfully. “And I take it that all four of us are that for you?”
“Yeah,” I told him simply. That was another bridge that I hoped we’d cross after this one, especially seeing as they weren’t an actual pack at the moment.
Maverick cupped the back of my head, his fingers kneading the tension that I hadn’t even realized had gathered there while we talked. “Thank you for being honest.”
“You’re welcome,” I told him brightly. “So, are you a virgin too?”
I meant it as a joke, but the serious worry on his face made me realize that Maverick may not be the best alpha to do that with. “I’m kidding, Maverick, I don’t expect you to be a virgin. You’re like walking sex on legs. I’d be more surprised if you were one.”
“I am not walking sex on legs, Lennon,” he mumbled, a blush filling his tanned cheeks.
My brows rose and I decided to get this evening back on a more spicy track. Twisting my body so that I was straddling hislap, I pressed a kiss to his jaw. “I mean, I’m kind of hoping you are. Especially considering I want you to blow my mind tonight.”
Strong arms banded around my waist and suddenly we were on again.
“Promise me you won’t regret this?” he asked, the last bits of his hesitance showing on his face.
I reached up and cupped his face in my hands. “Only if you do the same.”
His answer was another blazing kiss.
Things happened in a blur after that.
The nightgown that I’d meticulously picked out practically fell apart in his hands and he growled as he pulled it out from between our bodies, tossing it onto the floor right along with his sweatpants.
“Where the hell did you even find something like that?” he asked as he tugged at the strings of the matching panties.
“Lilith’s Garden,” I told him innocently. “The Angels section.”
“I feel bad for the poor agent that had to check that package,” Maverick muttered as he stared at my bare chest, his brown eyes transfixed on the small breasts and the rosy peaks of my nipples.
“So are you telling me I shouldn’t get my vibrators delivered to the White House either?” I asked demurely, reaching down to give one of my nipples a pinch, feeling it stiffen under my touch.
Maverick’s throat tensed as he swallowed hard.
“Don’t tease me, Lennon.”
“What do you mean? Do you consider this teasing?” I asked, tweaking the other nipple. “What about this?”
My hand slunk down in between us, and despite my nerves, I touched the swelling bud of nerves in between my legs and moaned.
It had the exact effect I’d been looking for because Maverick quickly knocked my hand out of the way and replaced it with his own thicker fingers.
“You act like such a goody two-shoes,” he said as he pressed my clit with his thumb before prodding at the tight entrance of my pussy with one finger, testing it. “But you’re a naughty girl in bed, aren’t you.”
Shooting him a sweet smile, I reached down and pushed on his finger until it slipped inside and began to stretch the tight entrance of my pussy. “I don’t know, maybe I could be a goody two-shoes in here too if you give me the right orders.”
