I let out a soft laugh. “So, what you’re saying is, all a girl’s got to do is bite her lip, and that turns you on?”

His eyes darken. “If you keep that up, I might not be able to keep my hands off you.”

In that charged moment, the heat between us becomes palpable.

I cross my legs, feigning composure, but his hand finds its way to the side of my thigh, sending shivers up my spine. I close my eyes and let the warmth of his touch melt my defenses.

“Do you want me to?” he asks in a husky whisper.

Without a word, I tilt my face toward him.

Our lips meet in a tentative kiss that soon grows fierce.

His hand wraps around my waist, drawing me in until all I can feel is the beat of his heart and the taste of his lips.

When his kiss trails down my neck, I hesitate only a moment before giving in completely.

I part my legs just enough to invite him further.

“It’s been a while,” I murmur, my admission raw and honest.

His gaze darkens. “Then let’s fix that.”

His touch is deliberate now, his fingers drawing soft, teasing circles along the fabric of my panties.

“V-Valentino,” a low moan escapes my lips as one of his fingers dips inside my panties and then inside me.

He’s looking straight at me. “You’re so wet. Tell me you like this. I want to hear you moan louder.”

“I want…” I breathe out, grinding myself against his hand. “More.”

I’m too far gone in my haze of lust to care about whether this is a good idea or not.

“More?”

I can only manage to let out a strangled moan.

“Being greedy now, are we?”

I look back at him, feeling like putty in his hands. And he smirks at me.

God dammit. It’s like he’s enjoying teasing me like this.

“If you don’t do it, I’ll have to do it mys–”

He slides another finger inside of me.

Finally.

I clench my walls against his fingers, which are relentlessly moving in and out of me. He’s no longer gentle, and I throw my head back at the sensation.

“Tel me you wanted this,” he growls. There’s something so possessive – so commanding– about the way that he speaks that I could cum just from his words alone. “You wanted me to have you like this, didn’t you?”

“I…oh, my god, I am going to cum.”

“Not yet.”

My eyes fly open as he abruptly pulls his fingers out of me, and I’m left staring at him in a confused, horny haze that feels all-encompassing at this point.
