Page 84 of Uniquely in Love

“No,” he agreed. “It’ll never be enough for the two of us, El.”

Fluttering my eyelashes, I sat back on my heels as he climbed onto the bed on top of me, his much larger frame caging me in. “Why’s that?” The murmur was hardly audible, but I knew he’d heard me.

“Fuck.” He grabbed my waist, hoisting me backwards towards the headboard. His breath caught as his fingers ran down my side. “Ellie.”

“Mhm?” I hummed, even though I knew exactly what he’d find on my skin.

His voice was a rasp against my skin when he asked, “Why do you have my number tattooed on you?”

“You know why, Owen,” I said, repeating the sentiment.

“Tell me anyway,” he begged.

I shut my eyes, picturing the moment I’d gotten it. My little secret number eight, hidden under my bra line on my side. “So you’d always be with me.” I wrapped my arms around his neck, tilting my head up and brushing my lips against his.

Because I’d always been his, even with the years apart. Even though there was so much distance between us, I’d always worn his number.

Owen’s mouth met mine, soft at first, but it merged into something desperate.Needy. I let the kiss say everything I hadn’t.

Rocking my hips, I was all too aware that the only thing separating us was our thin underwear. Mine was damp already, and I desperately wanted—needed—more.

“I need to touch you,” he said with one more nip of my lips. “Can I please touch you, Ellie baby?”

“Yes,” I whispered. I needed it just as badly. Every part of me ached for his touch, his embrace, his warmth. He was the only man for me. He’d always been the only man for me.

“Lie back and let me take care of you,” he murmured.

Gently laying me down so my head rested against the pillows, he transferred that tender touch down my body, hisfingers brushing over my collarbones and then my nipples before replacing them with his mouth. He ran his tongue over the hardened peaks. Owen nipped and sucked, driving me wild with his tongue and his teeth.

“Didn’t get to taste you before,” he murmured as he pulled away. “To memorize your body. I’m not making that mistake again.” He kissed down my stomach before reaching my thighs. I was so hopelessly turned on, and I knew it would be obvious as soon as he touched me. But I wanted this so badly.

I moaned in agreement as he pulled my legs apart, pressing his thumb over my drenched panties.

“Were these for me?” He asked, looking reverently at the fabric as he ran his knuckle over my entrance.

“They’re pretty,” I said, lamely, at a loss for words as he kissed my inner thigh.

“They are,” he mused. “Though you’ve always looked beautiful in blue.”

Owen pressed down, letting the fabric gather my wetness as he rubbed against my clit. His heated gaze was almost… reverent as he pulled my panties to the side and ran his finger through my slit. “Fuck, you’re so wet,” he rasped.

I let out a small moan, and then he hooked his fingers into the lacy waistband of the underwear before dragging them down. “Up,” he commanded, tapping on my hips. I lifted them to help him pull them off my body.

He sat back, his eyes trailing down in a blatant perusal of my naked body, like he was drinking me in. “You’ve always been the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.”

Owen settled himself in between my thighs, his mouth replacing where his fingers had just been. He used one hand to keep my legs spread apart, holding me open.

“Please,” I begged. I didn’t know what I was asking for, I just knew I wanted it.

He gave me a smug look as he bent down, nipping at myinner thigh. “Patience, baby. I’m going to take my time this time. Give us what we both want.”

“Oh,” I squeaked as he ran his tongue up my entrance, circling my clit once, twice. “Yes,” I cried.

He groaned as he dipped his tongue inside of my slit, lapping up all of my juices. “So sweet,” he muttered.

Fuck, but that shouldn’t have been sohot.I reached down, thrusting my hands into his hair, pushing him further against my aching pussy. He was eating me out like a man starved, but it wasn’t enough. I needed more. “Owen.” I tugged at his hair, trying to get his attention as he licked and sucked.

“Hmm?” He hummed against my clit, the sensation sending a wave of pleasure through me.
