“I want to.but only if you say I can.”
“Hawk.”
“Tell me,” he said again.“Tell me what I can do.”
She tilted her head.This was the man who had no problems giving out orders around the faire.But this entire evening he was ceding power to her.Letting her find him.Letting her set the pace.And ultimately, letting her make the decision on whether she forgave him or not.
This was not a reconciliation between the two of them.This was Hawk still trying to win her back.
He’d laid all his cards on the table.He’d donned the costume, apologized, and declared his love.
Now it was her turn.
“I want you to kiss me,” she whispered.
His lips clamped down against her own.Claiming her.“The bed,” she said.“Carry me to the bed.”
His hands slipped around her waist, fingers dipping into the globes of her ass before he hoisted her up without even a grunt.Automatically, her legs wrapped around his hips as she kept her lips glued to his.The angle allowed them to deepen the embrace.Her tongue plunging into his own.
They were moving, but she wasn’t entirely sure where until his grip disappeared and she was falling.Falling backward onto the world’s softest bed.
Geez, what is this thing made of?Clouds?
There wasn’t any time to check before Hawk was on top of her.His long, lean chest loomed over her naked form like a dark-haired god.Her mouth went utterly dry.The only thing on his body was those boxers, which were tented with averyobvious hard-on.
“Now what?”he asked, voice husky.
Lilian’s fingers reached out to pet the bulge.
Hawk’s next words came out through gritted teeth.“Lilian—fuck, these pants are too tight.I’m going to come right here and now if you keep doing that.”
“Then take them off.”
His eyes flashed.Slowly he pulled away, as if removing himself from her physically hurt him.Lilian lifted herself up on her arms to watch as he peeled off the pants.His dark briefs peeked out first and then his bare cock bobbed into view.
He stepped out of the pants and stood before her, allowing her to take him in.A cool sensation pooled from her stomach down between her legs.She was wet, just at the sight of him.
“Get back over here,” she whispered.
“In a second.”He turned to his discarded clothes, digging threw the piles until he found what he was looking for.The shiny wrapper gleamed in the dim light.A condom.Lilian huffed out a relieved puff of air as Hawk rolled it on his cock.
When the protection was in place, he eagerly jumped onto the bed ready to return to their earlier frenzy.The mattress bounced, pushing Lilian up and into his arms.Their bodies slotted together perfectly.It was a sensation she’d missed, the feel of him against her, the way he held on to her like he was willing to shoulder all the world’s hurt to protect her.
Tilting her head down, she pressed a kiss into his hair.The sharp smell of his shampoo was as familiar as his embrace.Hawk nuzzled her breasts, placing loving kisses against the skin before moving lower.Lips against her naval, her hip bone, and then…
“Oh.”Lilian arched as he nestled between her legs.He kissed the inside of her thighs, but nothing else.
His eyes cut up and locked on her.“Tell me you want this.Tell me I can have you.”
“Yes,” she whined, digging her fingers into his hair and moving his head down.“Fuck me with your tongue.”
He didn’t need to hear any more; his tongue was already swiping at her core.Plunging between her folds and licking every inch of her.The sudden fever of the motion made her arch against him.
“God, I might come just from the noises you’re making,” he said.
She twisted his hair in warning.“Don’t.Don’t come yet.When you’re done, I want you inside me.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
