My gaze searched his. “What?”
He leaned closer, his breath pulsing against my lips. “Just tell me now and I’ll leave you be. That’s all you have to do.”
I darted my tongue out and softly licked his lower lip. “And if I don’t want to?”
He moved like lightning streaking its way across the sky. One second, we were millimeters away from kissing, and the next, I was on my back with his knee shoved in between my legs.
“Maverick,” I said breathlessly.
He hovered over me with darkened eyes that screamed for more. “Say no.”
I kept my mouth shut as he ground his knee against my naked pussy.
“Just say no, Brielle,” he whispered.
I moaned softly and rolled my hips against his knee. “Yes, Mav.”
“Fuck,” he hissed.
I released my towel, allowing it to fall away from my body. “Oh, yes, Mav. More.”
“Goddamn it,” he growled. “I won’t be able to stop if you let me.”
“Then, don’t,” I whimpered. “Because all I want is to feel good for a while.”
And as his lips crashed to mine, robbing me of the very breath from my lungs, I grasped his shirt and pulled him closer.
Anything to feel his body seated against my own.

MAVERICK
“Fucking hell,” I growled as she ground her juicy pussy against my knee.
I lost it. I lost control of myself. The second that little begging sound fell from her lips, the animal inside of me rattled around in its cage. I threaded my fingers into her hair. I encompassed her mouth with mine as my tongue raked across the roof of her mouth. She moaned for me, bowing her back and pressing those delicious tits of hers into the slats of my chest. Jesus, she tasted divine. Like the sweetest apple plucked from the most beautiful tree in all the land. Her hands twisted into my shirt, drawing me closer as my lips swelled against hers. I teased her, sliding my tongue along her teeth and feeling her quiver against me.
Then, the smell of her womanhood pierced my nostrils.
“Help me forget, please,” she gasped. “Just for a little bit.”
And she sure as fuck didn’t have to tell me twice.
Her hands raced to my hair, and I didn’t flinch. I didn’t even panic as she gripped my tendrils and slid her fingernails along my scalp. For the first time since leaving my family’s side, I felt free. Free of the confines and the shackles that my nightmares kept hooked around my body. Free from the shame and the pain of what my brother had done to my body. I couldn’t get enough of her. I couldn’t get enough of the safe haven her body had created for mine. Her legs shook as she pressed herself against me. I slid my arm beneath her back, pulling her closer to me as I sat back on my haunches. Her body molded perfectly to mine, filling the spots I left behind as she moved with me. Our tongues collided. Our teeth clattered together. That little minx sucked on my lower lip, and I swear to hell on high, I damn near blew my load. And as I stood to my feet, I bent down long enough to grip the backs of her thighs.
Before hoisting her against my body.
“Mav,” she gasped down the back of my throat.
I growled as I spun her around, pinning her to the first available wall. A growl worked up the back of my throat, letting loose as our tongues fought for dominance. Her knees trembled against my body. Her ankles locked around me and I slid my tongue down the expanse of her neck. The heat of her pussy battered my skin through my jeans, teasing my cock as it pressed heavily against my zipper. And oh, how her smell grew. How it thickened and permeated the room around us, broadcasting a carnal need we both had swelling between our bodies.
My hands explored her, cupping her tightening tits as I felt her nipples pucker against my palms. I gripped the globes of her ass and rolled my hips into hers before I pulled her away from the wall. Freeing her from the prison I had pinned her against. She groaned as she clung to me, burying her fingers into my hair as a gasp fell from her lips. And the second I felt her collapse against me, the second that wall fell away from her back, she climbed me like a fucking tree.
Before she drew my lower lip back into her mouth.
“Good God,” I grunted.
“Mmmm, so good,” she whimpered.
