I jerk my hips up into him, trying to get my knees beneath me for some real leverage. The movement causes my butt to press into his erection.
Holy shit. Santi is packing.
A fresh wave of hot, achy desire ripples through me and I bite my bottom lip to keep from moaning. I buck my hips back up into his. The answering deep rumble that vibrates through his chest sounds just as desperate and needy as the one I just choked down.
He struggles to grab my arms as I attempt to elbow him. “Stop wiggling! Fuck, you’re going to make me cum in my pants again!”
I go limp with surprise. “Um,again?”
Santi takes advantage of my shock and flips me over swiftly so I’m on my back looking up at him.
“Yeah,again, Blair,” he confirms as he sinks down to lay his full weight against me.
I let him grab my hands and pin them against the floor over my head. With his free hand he grabs my neck. I gasp in surprise. Santi grins darkly down at me, his pupils blown wide as he stares into my face.
“The first time we wrestled,” he growls out. “Was when Rhett and I caught you following us. Remember that night?”
How could I not? I nod in response.
“Yeah, well, I remember it too.” He lets out a dry laugh. “You got those perfect fucking thighs around my face and I was a goner. I made such a mess that after we made it to the truck I had to change into our spare clothes.”
I think back to that night and I remember Santi had said he’d beenmore than goodwhen Rhett had asked him if he was okay. I shouldn’t, but I can’t stop the laughter that bursts forth.
“Oh my god!” I say between gasps of air. “You’re ridiculous, Santi!”
The hand around my neck tightens, cutting off my laugh. My amusement falls away as I tense, confused by the intensity of Santi’s dark gaze as he stares down at me.
“Ridiculous?” he repeats quietly, no hint of teasing or playfulness. “No, it’s not, Blair. It just goes to show how much of an impact you have on me. My soul has been aching for someone like you in my life and when it got a taste of yours, as close as we were in that moment, it felt so fucking good I lost control of myself. Just like now.”
I stare up at Santi as his thumb caresses the skin over the pulse in my neck. There is terrifying earnestness in that dark gaze that stares back at me. My heart hasn’t stopped racing since we started this new game between us and while I’m excited, I’m equally as scared. Bending down, Santi gently places a kiss on my lips.
“This is me, Blair.Allof me. Can’t you see how well you fit in my world?” he asks against my lips. “You’ve seen me at my best, at my ugliest, and now at my most desperate.”
Isn’t this what I’ve craved in a partner? To be seen completely, stripped of lies I had to use as masks in order to pretend to fit into the world? I wanted a partner where I could bemeand now there’s someone who wants the same.
“Can you hear the wail of my soul as it begs for you?” Santi continues. “It’s a haunting song that won’t stop playing in my head.” He plants a kiss beside my mouth, then against my cheek, then another one on my jaw. “Please,cariño…Please.”
A hard shiver rushes through me and my nipples harden.
“P-please what?” My question comes out breathless as I turn my head and allow Santi to plant kisses down my neck.
“Let me have you,” he breathes against the crook of my neck. “Let me fill you up and make you scream. Whatever holes you have in your soul, let me fill them with pieces of me. I can make you whole.”
An embarrassing squeak of need slips past my lips. Rationality flies out the door and I find myself nodding.
“Alright, Santi. I’ll be your prize.”
Chapter 21
Blair
Ahard, full-body tremor rushes through Santi as he lets out a desperate and excited groan.
“Tell me how.” His mouth finds mine and he kisses me hard this time before he pulls away once more. “I’ve never been with a woman before. Please,please, tell me what to do.”
I pause, surprised. “Never?”
Santi shakes his head in earnest. “You’re the first. Hell, you’re theonlywoman I’ve wanted to be with.”
