Yet right now in her arms, he remembered those things.I’m not an animal.
At least those were his thoughts until she began to gently stroke his cock.
Jinx threw his head back into the pillow as everything spun.
He was in ecstasy.
Honestly, he didn’t think it could get any better.
Not until she slid down, between his knees. Then, looking up his body, she met and held his gaze as she took him into her mouth.
Stars flashed before his eyes as he cursed and twisted his fists in her sheets. It took everything he had not to instantly come.
But it was hard.
Damn near impossible.
Unable to stand it, he gently pulled her back. “I can’t take any more of that.”
Eve smiled, the flush of blood swelled her lips, her eyes were glassy when she looked back at him. “I know.”
She allowed him to tug her up to cover his body. But he didn’t stop until he draped her fully across him.
Then, he rolled with her and slowly moved from her lips to her throat. And he kept going until he reached her breasts.
Her breathing ragged, Eve tossed her head back as the pleasure centered deep in her womb.
This was special. This man was special, she knew that deep inside.
He haunted her. Never in her life had she felt like this. His pain spoke to her.
Sang to her.
For the first time, she not only understood the man she was with, she wanted to soothe him. To tell him that everything would be all right.
But they both knew better. The universe was harsh and cold, and out to annihilate people like them.
Jinx knew it even better than she did. He was one of the monsters she’d spent her life fighting against. The boogeyman everyone feared.
And yet . . .
They were similar creatures. Both scarred by an inhumane past. Both forced to fight for a life they’d never wanted.
That knowledge made her feel so close to him. Closer than she should feel.
Closing her eyes, she savored the sensation of his tongue circling her nipple. Of his strong hands sliding all over her body. He could tear her apart.
Instead, he was showing her a gentleness she knew didn’t come easy for him. A tenderness that was alien to his nature. The heat of his hands branded her flesh as he made his way down her body until he kissed her nether lips.
Eve cried out in ecstasy.
Jinx’s laugh reverberated through her body as he drove his face into her. His tongue reached deep into her core while he rubbed his nose against her clit.
Unable to stand it, she dug her hips into the pleasure, and rocked her hips against him.
In that instant, her body shattered as she came, calling out his name. Still, he didn’t pull away as he sought to please her completely. Her entire body shuddered with each stab of his tongue, each pass over her clit.
He waited until her strength was spent. Then with one deft move, he lined up their bodies, and kissed her before he slid himself inside her.
