I sighed and lowered my head, but Kilo slipped his index finger under my chin and made me look at him.
“Talk to me, Nyomi.”
“I don’t know what that was about, okay. I left the bathroom and saw her cheesing in your face, and I . . .”
“And you what?”
“I got jealous, okay. I don’t know why, because you’re definitely not my man. You know what? I shouldn’t have done that. You should go back inside and finish enjoying your evening. I’ll call?—”
He shut me up by covering my mouth with his, not waiting a second to slip his tongue between my lips. My body sank into his, and I allowed myself to savor our connection. We were in the middle of the sidewalk in front ofPitch Blackas people came and went, but it felt like we were alone.
I hated that he pulled away, but we couldn’t stand there kissing forever. With our faces only inches apart, Kilo looked into my eyes and said, “I can be your man, Nyomi, if only for tonight.”
“Kilo, I?—”
“Tell me what you want, beautiful.”
I slowly swallowed, not believing what was about to leave my mouth.
“You, Kilo. I want you.”
I felt relieved and nervous after the words spilled from my mouth.
“Are you sure?”
He was giving me the opportunity to renege, but that was the last thing I wanted to do.
“I’m positive. Let’s get a room across the street.”
He took my hand, and we waited until it was safe to cross the street. We didn’t converse as we entered the hotel and booked a room. As we rode the elevator to the third floor, I sent my son a text to let him know I was spending the night with Skye so he wouldn’t worry.
Kilo also removed his phone from his back pocket and moved his thumb across the screen, handing it to me just as the elevator stopped. I looked at the screen and saw his STD results, dated alittle less than a month ago. I nodded and gave him his phone as we stepped off the elevator.
“I’m clean, but it’s been a while since I was last tested, and I haven’t had sex since then.”
He nodded and said, “I don’t know why, but I trust you, baby.”
We arrived at our room, and after unlocking the door and allowing me to enter first, he closed and secured the door behind him. We stood face-to-face for a moment, and I knew it was his way of giving me time to change my mind. Whatever uncertainty I had about this had disappeared when he kissed me on the sidewalk.
I slipped out of my shoes, kicked them to the right, and stepped toward him, closing the space between us. My hands went to caress the back of his neck, and he leaned down to kiss me, softly at first, before the animal in him took over. His mouth devoured mine, causing a fire to start between my thighs.
As our tongues intertwined, we moved further into the room until we fell onto the bed. I opened my legs, causing my dress to move up my thighs and giving Kilo room to settle between them. His pants were thin, and I could feel his erection pressing against my center.
His mouth moved down to my neck, and as he caressed it with his tongue, he pushed the straps of my dress from my shoulders, exposing my breasts. When his tongue brushed over my nipple, I moaned.
“Mmm.”
He pushed my breasts together and alternated flicking his tongue over each of them. It had been so long since I’d been touched by a man like this that I was coming undone. Between his tongue tickling my nipples and the friction between our loins, I was on the verge of cumming.
“I wanna taste you,” he mumbled before standing and pulling my dress down my body and tossing it behind him.
I lay on the bed in only my panties, looking up at him, waiting for his next move.
“Damn, baby. You’re so fucking beautiful.”
He reached for the sides of my panties and began pulling them over my hips. I lifted my ass to make it easier for him, and he bit his bottom lip.
“You’re too pretty not to taste good, baby. Can I eat your pussy?”
