Page 81 of A Lick of Flame

I work my way into her…slowly…slowly.

Her mouth parts as she drags in ragged breaths. Her eyes are wide and on mine. It feels intimate. It feels like a lot. Like everything. I don’t dwell on it. I go with it instead. I’ll think about all of the other stuff in the light of day. Right now, she is my sole focus. It’s all about her.

Maya’s hands grip my shoulders. Her nails biting into me.

Slowly. Slowly. Deeper. Deeper.

So good that my head is spinning. It’s not just because I’m inside a woman for the first time in years. It’s her. It’s Maya. There’s something about her that makes me feel lighter and brighter. Something that makes me feel free…happy. I want to lose myself in her. Not just for tonight.

She whimpers and bites her lip, arching her back, rocking into me. Making these little noises that almost make me lose my mind.

“This okay?” I manage to push out. My words are barely intelligible. My hands are flat on the bedroll on either side of her head.

Maya’s knees are up high. She nods and makes a noise of agreement.

I stop moving. “You sure?”

“Don’t stop,” she whispers, clutching me tighter. “I want this. I want you…need you.” She whispers my name, and I am lost.

Lost.

Lost.

No, I’m found. I’m where I belong.

I nod and keep going. It takes a few long beats before I bottom out. I snarl as my balls hit home.

“Perfect,” she moans.

“Doesn’t get any better.”

We both groan as I move in and out of her a few times more, going all the way in and all the way out. I go slowly. Carefully. I can hardly move. Hardly breathe.

Maya reaches up and kisses me. It’s soft and unsure. I grip her jaw and angle my mouth to get more of her. Sublime and surreal. All of this is. From the crackle of the fire to the blanket of stars twinkling above us. Mainly, it’s her and how I feel when I am inside her.

Maya grips my jaw right back and kisses me like I’m just as important as the air she breathes. Like I’m the sun, the moon, and all of the stars. When she pulls back, her eyes are hazy with need. Her arms encircle my neck. My cock is still buried deep inside her. This is where I belong.

I shove the thought aside. I have to.

I lean in and suck on her nipples, then cup one of her breasts. They’re full and soft. So fucking beautiful. Maya groans, her head falling back just a little. Her blond hair is fanned out behind her.

“I’m going to take this nice and slow,” I tell her.

She makes a noise of frustration, giving me a tight smile. “I need…I…”

“I know exactly what you need, and I intend to give it to you.”

I hold on to her thighs, lift them up a little higher, and ease myself in and out of her heat. I grunt with every stroke. Maya whimpers. Her face gets a pinched look. Her eyes are glazed. Her breathing is ragged.

“Good?”

“Soooo good.” Her eyes drift shut. “Better than I ever thought it would be.”

I keep thrusting into her, keeping my movements punchy, watching her reaction. I know I have the right spot because her eyes roll back, and she groans. Kakara give me strength, for I am dying. I want to come so badly. My balls are tight. They feel like they’ve lodged themselves into my throat.

Up and down. Nice and easy. All for her.

Her eyes are wide, and she’s panting hard. I look down to where we are joined. To where her channel is stretched wide to accommodate me. Her slit is pink and glistening and perfect.
