I groaned because she was killing me. “It wasn’t wrong.”
And if it was? I no longer cared.
I pushed her down onto her back, shifting so I was once again between her legs. I pulled her hands away from me, threaded our fingers together, and pressed them to the comforter beside her head.
“That’s so fucking hot,” I uttered against her lips.
I moved my hips, letting myself rub against her, down the entire bare length to tease. It was the most dangerous thing I’d ever done because—fucking hell—it feltsogood I wanted to sink inside her, right here, right now, and worry about the consequences later.
Her breath was ragged and her gaze fixated on mine. A combination of emotions played across her face. Excitement. Desperation. Recklessness. My kiss seemed to make her drunk with desire.
She was hot and wet, and I slid my cock over her clit again and again until her eyes fell shut. She was wild for me to claim her, her hips trying to line up with mine so I could push inside and give her what she wanted.
Andthank Godshe wanted it. I wasn't sure how I'd gotten lucky enough to get to this moment with her. I mumbled my question into the crook of her neck. “Here? Or on the bed?”
Laurel’s gaze went to the bed like she wondered how the hell we were going to get there, but I had that covered.
It hurt like a motherfucker when I rose, pulling her up with me, and then lifted her into my arms, but I was too focused, too driven to let the pain stop me. With her orgasm and her trembling legs, I didn’t know if she could walk, so this was the fastest way to get there.
I deposited her on the sheets, and a flash of lightning illuminated the room for a split second, immediately followed by an enormous boom. She flinched. The storm on top of us was eerily similar to the flash bang from the terrifying night in the motel bathroom.
My goal was temporarily abandoned. I wrapped her up in my arms, simply holding her. I’d try my damnedest, do everything in my power to make her feel safe. And, shit, how I wished I could wipe that memory away.
With our chests pressed together, I could feel the hurried skip of her heart, and it mirrored my own. Her forehead rested on my shoulder, and when she turned her head toward me, her hair draped down the side of my arm.
She mouthed kisses against my neck, her hand closing around my dick, and a shiver of pleasure glanced through my body.
“I need you,” she whispered.
I was more than happy to oblige.
Earlier, when she’d disappeared into the bathroom, the first thing I’d done was check the top drawer of Shawn’s nightstand because I’d talked myself out of buying condoms at the store. It had been a foolish attempt to cockblock myself. Plus, I’d be breaking all the rules by sleeping with her. The least I could do was not use government money to help make that happen.
As I’d suspected, there was a relatively new box tucked inside the nightstand drawer, and I dug it out now, extracted a condom packet from inside.
As soon as she realized, relief flitted across her face. She splayed out on the bed as I tore the wrapper and rolled the latex on, her watching me like my actions were mesmerizing. When it was done, I couldn’t get back to her fast enough. I climbed on the bed and into her welcoming arms.
This was what we both wanted. All my struggling against it had only prolonged the inevitable.
She looped a hand on my neck and pulled me to her, silencing my thoughts with her mouth. Her kiss was searing, blistering, and my body moved on instinct. I slipped a hand between us to steady myself, lined up, and began to ease inside.
She was hot and so fucking tight, my vision blurred from the pleasure.
As I sank further inside, she moaned and dug her fingernails into the meaty parts of my arms like she wanted all of me and she needed it right now. Her chest rose and fell with her rapid, uneven breaths, causing her nipples to brush seductively against my chest.
“Fuck,” she murmured once I was buried as deep as I could go.
The word was drenched in satisfaction, a simple byproduct of pleasure, but I took it as a command. I withdrew almost completely then pressed into her again, filling her. When herbottom lip quivered, I captured it with mine and kissed her like it was the only thing I’d been put on this Earth to do.
Shit, I was in trouble right away.
I could barely keep my restraint with the slow rhythm I used to move inside her. How the hell was I going to last once we really got going?
Get it together, man.
I would. Ihadto. I'd do anything she wanted.
When she arched her back, it seemed like a demand to give her tits some attention. I cupped her breasts and pushed them together so I could run my tongue from one nipple to the other and back again.
