‘Fuck, Scarlett.’ He nudges in, never taking his eyes from mine. ‘Just an inch, okay? Don’t be greedy. It’s unbecoming.’ He shoots me a wink.
I love the playful banter. The ease of our relationship. Because whether we wanted it or not, we do have one– a real one that is. I suppose it was inevitable, given the incredible chemistry between us.
He slides the tip in and my head rolls back on the pillow. My core tenses and I force my muscles to unclench.
‘How does that feel?’ Hot lips blaze a trail of tiny kisses along my jawline.
‘It feels like more.’ My pulse roars in my ears, my skin feels too tight and the weight of him on my body is too much and yet not enough, all at the same time.
‘So, my little virgin likes cock.’ His tongue traces the outline of my lips as he pushes in a little further. It’s heaven and hell because it’s too much and nowhere near enough.
‘I don’t like cock. I likeyourcock.’
He nudges in further. ‘Thank fuck. Because it’s the only cock you’re ever going to get.’
He slides back, almost all the way out. ‘You okay, baby?’ Concern flickers in his big brown eyes.
‘Never better.’ It’s tight. It’s sore, but he’s stoking bits ofme I didn't even know I owned, which more than compensates for the pain.
‘Good girl.’ His hands glide over my hips and dip beneath my backside, arching me up to grind against him as he plunges into me. An animalistic cry pierces the air and it takes a split second for me to realise it came from my mouth. But he’s in. All the way in. I’m so full of him, I feel consumed, but in the most decadent, delirious way.
His hips rock back and forth in a slow, gentle rhythm and he alternates between gazing at me like I’m a magical pink unicorn and peppering my lips with tiny affectionate kisses. I relax into him, around him, and then surrender myself to him.
Heat builds in my core and I’m so full, so complete, it’s like nothing else in this world. Every muscle in my body tightens and trembles. James’s hand infiltrates the space between us, his fingers caressing my clit in slow sensual circles.
I’ve never known pleasure like it.
His eyes are wild as he increases his pace, slamming against me in slow debilitating thrusts that touch a spot inside of me that I didn't know existed.
‘Look.’ His gaze moves to our middle and he inches back enough that I can see his thick length slide into me, and I’m gone.
An orgasm shudders through me in hot, blinding bursts until I shatter in his arms and on his cock, just as he requested.
Before the last decadent wave leaves my body, James follows suit, pumping me hard. His lips capture mine, devouring my lingering moans, swallowing them as they meld with his own.
Chapter Thirty-Nine
JAMES
Taking Scarlett’s virginity may be the most self-indulgent thing I’ve ever done, but it’s also the most self-sabotaging, because there’s no going back from this. The plan was to ruin her for all others. The reality is, it’s me who’s ruined.
I knew it.
I knew I’d lose myself inside her. She’s like no one I’ve ever met before.
I press my cheek to her chest, listening to the rapid hammering of her heart as it pumps out the same rhythm as my own. I’m in deep. So deep. She drags her fingers through my hair in soft slow strokes. I glance up. Her platinum eyes glisten.
‘You okay?’
She offers a small nod. ‘Never been better.’
‘You’re amazing.’ My voice cracks with raw emotion. I’m freefalling into love with the woman I’m supposed to let go in a couple of months. I don’t want her to give up on her dreams because they aren't the same as mine, but there’s no way I’m letting her out of my life. Which is why I’ve decided to show her the world– my way.
Her lips curve wryly. ‘You’re the one they call Ireland’s most eligible bachelor.’
‘Not anymore.’ I lower my hands over her hips and pinch her ass. ‘You’re stuck with me after that.’ I roll sideways onto the pillow next to her. ‘I’m giving you three minutes to recover then I want you on all fours, face down, ass up.’ My cock is already hard again.
‘As amazing as that sounds, I have to get up. My dissertation has to be submitted on Friday, and I’ve been distracted lately.’ Scarlett turns on to her side to face me, presses a swift kiss on my lips, then backs off the bed.
