With a growl, I rolled over her, pressing her down into the bed while she yelped in surprise. Her teeth closed on my arm, then she let go and licked the spot by way of an apology. I shoved deep inside her, and her thighs clamped tight on my hips like a vise.

Her eyes locked on mine as the hollow at the base of her throat bottomed out.

“Are you okay?” I nuzzled into her neck, and her fingertips dug into my arms.

“Better than okay.” Her lips teased my ear, and I hardened up even more inside her. Still, the way she’d tensed up, I worried I’d hurt her.

“If it hurts, tell me. I’ll ease up. Hurting you doesn’t make this better for me.” I licked her jaw, then kissed her lips.

“Okay.”

I swallowed her whisper and pressed my tongue into her mouth. She met me eagerly, her tongue swirling playfully around mine. Without hesitation, I pulled back and pressed into her as her body moved against mine.

Instead of holding back, I plunged into her, trusting that she’d communicate with me if something I did wasn’t working for her. That sense of trust washed over me, intensifying every sensation screaming through my body.

Slamming into her over and over, I listened to her body. I enjoyed every arch of her back, every bounce of her breasts, every sound that escaped her lips. She was sexy as hell, and I wanted her more than I’d ever wanted anyone.

Her feet touched behind my thigh, and she began to pull me into her body, urging me deeper, harder, more… and with every pull she yanked me dangerously close to the edge of oblivion.

The wet sounds of sex, the slip of my cock in and out of her, the delicate notes of pleasure playing in her throat, everything pushed me closer and closer to my undoing, and I bit back that urge.

“Don’t hold back,” she whispered, her eyes locking on mine.

I studied her brown eyes as they bounced back and forth between mine. Her soft, warm body was heaven beneath mine, and her voice was music to my ears as she spoke.

“Just… come.” With that whisper, her eyes rolled back and bit, and she pressed her head back into the pillow. Her whole body arched as she came on me, hard, milking my cock while little gasping moans broke past her kissable lips.

She was fucking perfect in every sense of the word, and watching her let go and implode around me broke something in me. Without warning, my body tightened and emptied into her. The warmth and euphoria washed over me even as I groaned and tightened up in her.

“Yes, Leif…” her words trailed off as she shivered in my arms.

I pressed home in her, aware of her wince as I pressed my lips to her extended toward. Her body continued to flutter around me, and I kissed her again and again and again, loving the way her thighs held me, and she sighed in pleasure.

Worried I’d crush her, I rolled onto my back, dragging her with me. She moved willingly, her body clinging tightly to me as my heart began to slow to a more reasonable pace.

Everything in me screamed to protect her, to keep her safe, and I stopped short in that odd thought. Was it just a temporary feeling? Or was I going to have to figure out how to shut this down?

With a single fingertip, I dragged a stray curl away from her face and noticed she was studying me with those serious brown eyes.

“It was my first time.”

I think I knew, somewhere deep in me. Maybe that’s why I’d needed to let her have control. But she was staring at me like she was worried I’d be pissed at her for this.

“But I was scared if I told you you’d act like I’m some delicate, breakable thing.” Her eyes softened.

I traced her cheekbone, and her eyes drifted closed. “I already think you’re badass. You didn’t have to tough this out.”

“You think I’m badass?” A smile toyed with her lips.

We both lifted our heads as my phone rang.

Mel

The call from Hitch lasted only a few moments; he’d been letting us know he made it safely to the store.

Leif and I had hopped into the shower, and he’d put his mouth on me once more as hot water cascaded over us. I tried to wrestle my thoughts into a good place, tried telling myself to enjoy this while it lasted, because it wouldn’t last.
