“Modest too.”

“Come on, Ef. We’re grown-ups. We can talk about it without it being awkward.”

She sighs. “Can we?”

“We had sex, Effie. It’s not that crazy.”

Suddenly, she sits upright.

I’m pretty sure her cheeks are burning up with embarrassment, but thanks to her sunburn, I can’t see it.

“Not that crazy. Are you freaking joking? We had sex, Kieran. S-e-x. And not just the normal, wham-bam-thank-you-ma’am kind. Hot, and passionate, and kinky…”

“Go on,” I encourage when she trails off.

“Y-you…”

“I what?” I ask, already predicting where this is going.

“You were rough, and you choked me and?—”

“You loved it?”

Her eyes shutter, and she licks her lips.

Fuck. This conversation has me rock fucking hard.

The second she looks down, she’s going to know as well. My sweats hide nothing.

My hand glides over her knee and up to her thigh, and she begins to tremble.

“It’s okay to admit it. There’s nothing wrong with kinky sex, Ef.”

Her eyes fly open. “I know that. I’ve just never…”

My smile grows wider and wider, but to my disappointment, she doesn’t finish that sentence.

“Had sex that good? Come so hard? Been with such a god?” I offer up.

“Handed control over quite like that,” she confesses quietly.

Her words hit me right in the chest.

“Because you trust me,” I tell her.

“Hmm…for my sins.”

“Oh, baby. There were sins,” I tease as I slide my palm higher, dipping under the hem of my hoodie.

Her breathing becomes labored and her fists curl at her sides.

My girl is desperate for a repeat.

She’s not the only one.

I’m not going to make it easy for her, though. She’s going to have to work for it if she wants my dick again.

She blows out a long, slow breath as I release her leg and reach for the other.
