On a sigh, Hope lifted her hands over her head to grab onto the blanket tightly. Angelica looked up, locking their gazes together. “Are you ready?”
“Oh definitely.” Hope smiled back at her, a full grin with rosy cheeks from arousal. “I’m so ready for you.”
Angelica tried to keep eye contact for as long as possible. She moved down, sliding her tongue out from between her lips and moving on instinct as she slid her tongue against Hope’s pussy. But she was met with an unexpected texture and flavor. Frowning and keeping her tongue out of her mouth, Angelica tried to get whatever was on her tongue off. She had to adjust her weight to be able to reach around with her hand and pull the red petal off her tongue and toss it to the side.
“Hope?”
“Yeah?” Hope asked, curious because Angelica’s tone certainly wasn’t one that said sexy or teasing.
“Will you do me a favor next time?”
“Sure?” Hope moved up onto her elbows so she could look directly at Angelica.
“I’m not a fan of gagging on flowers. Next time, can you not put them on the bed?” Angelica wrinkled her nose for added effect.
Hope rocked with laughter. The sound reached Angelica’s ears and filled her soul. With burning cheeks, Angelica bent down and covered Hope’s clit with her lips. The laugh turned into a gasp. Hope tilted her head back, her chest rising upward.
“Fuck, Angel.”
Chuckling to herself, Angelica kept her mouth in place. She sucked hard, keeping the pressure for as long as she could beforeshe slowly eased off and swiped her tongue against Hope’s clit. Now this was a flavor she’d always enjoy, no matter what. The taste of a woman was something she’d fallen in love with at an early age, and it was something she’d never wanted to give up. Hope reached down, tangling her fingers in Angelica’s hair and tightening her grasp.
In silence, Angelica continued on instinct. She listened for those signs from Hope, the groans, the small moans, the gasps as she tried to catch her breath. She changed with them, modified enough so that she knew she was giving Hope everything that she needed in this moment. Hope lifted her hips upward, rocking them against Angelica’s face, pushing into her and then easing back. Angelica just followed her, not letting up on the pleasure that she was giving.
She wouldn’t.
Not ever.
“Angel,” Hope said one more time, before her entire body tightened. This was it. This was exactly what they had needed.
Angelica slid her tongue through Hope’s slick folds, tasting every ounce of liquid gold that Hope had given her. She’d hummed as she moved back up Hope’s body with another trail of kisses, lingering when she wanted to and teasing when she wanted to. Finally, she reached Hope’s lips and kissed her hard.
“Will you just hold me tonight?” Angelica asked.
“Of course. Always.”
Chapter
Forty-One
The red dress plunged downward,showing off Angelica’s breasts in a way that made Hope want to reach out and brush her fingers against them. Whoever had chosen that dress should go to hell, because Hope was distracted as fuck right now. They’d finished the main bulk of filming twenty minutes ago, and now Rex and Sy were resetting outside Mondial so they could film the conclusion to the show with the plans going forward.
Angelica stood quietly while Ansel preened her face with whatever magic he had in the little box he brought with him everywhere. He’d already made sure Hope looked better than she had ten minutes ago, and now it was Angelica’s turn.
But fuck, that dress.
Angelica pursed her lips when Ansel told her to as he dabbed on more lip gloss, but her gaze met Hope’s. There was nothing but amusement in those eyes. She knew exactly what was going on. Hope shuddered at the power that Angelica held over her, but she also wouldn’t want it any other way. She’d longed for this type of ease between them for years, and they finally had it. Hard fought and hard won.
She wouldn’t give it up without a fight.
Not that she thought she’d have to. Not their relationship anyway. But maybe the show. She knew without a doubt that she wouldn’t continueHotel Bombshellif Angelica wasn’t right here with her. She couldn’t stand to be away from her any more throughout the year ahead.
“I hope you two enjoy the break we’re about to have,” Florence said, standing with her arms crossed right next to her.
Hope raised her eyebrows in surprise. She hadn’t even noticed Florence coming near. Cadence was still filming in the dining room, making sure that they got enough footage of the new experience Jenesis had put together, and Hope had to leave them on their own, give them the control to do what they wanted from here on out.
Which had been difficult, because it felt like they hadn’t quite set everyone up for success with the last-minute change in plans.
“Four weeks isn’t going to be enough,” Hope murmured. “Not with everything going on right now.”
