Her eyes widen. “The ones…the ones I was supposed to wear for the…well…”

Her wedding.

“Perfect,” I say. “Put them on.”

A naughty gleam enters her eyes, and she walks to her closet, nude, and pulls out a pair of sparkly four-inch heels. Not tall enough that I won’t need to lean down, but they’ll do.

I fist my dick as I watch her sit on the bed and put them on.

“Turn around and put your hands on the wall.”

She does what I’ve asked of her, pushing up her butt. It’s a sight I want to memorize, but there are other things I’d prefer to do right now. I run my palms over her butt and her lower back, the arc elegant?—

I can’t wait anymore.

I crouch slightly to get the angle right, and I line myself up, gripping her hip. Slowly, I sink into her. The feeling is so overwhelming it ignites an instant tingling at my lower back that tells me this isn’t going to last as long as I’d like unless I start forcing myself to think dismal thoughts. Using her hip as a handhold, I push deeper and lean in toward her ear, kissing the side of her face.

“Is this okay?” I ask.

Her response is to push back, taking in more of me. “You feel so good,” she says, her voice shaking slightly. “So good.”

She angles her head to the side and kisses me as I slowly thrust the rest of the way in, giving her time to adjust to me. The feeling of her body squeezing my dick while she kisses me is so intense I can barely stand it, but I need to move. I start to thrust in and out while she balances on those sparkly, spiky heels, her hands still raised on the wall for me. Because I asked her to put them there.

I swear into her mouth, her hair. I kiss her. And I slide my other hand between her legs, making sure I’m giving her what she needs, because she isdefinitelygiving me what I need.

“Does that feel good?” I ask as I thrust in hard, her tits swaying with it.

“Yes,” she says, her voice breathy, “but I want to see you when it happens. I want to see your face.”

I pull out and turn her around. Something in my chest melts as I take in the sight of her, completely naked except for the heels she bought to wear for my brother.

I lift her up by the hips and back her into the wall. Her mouth parts as I adjust myself and thrust in deep. And she wraps her legs behind my back as I bottom out. Holy hell. I’m not going to last, so I’m relieved when I feel her clench around me.

I capture her lips with mine and thrust in again, and again, and I can feel myself going over the edge as she releases a sweet gasp into my mouth. I come so hard my knees go weak, and I barely manage to carry her over to the bed, still inside of her, before collapsing onto it, with Sophie on top of me.

“Oh goodness,” she says as I finally pull out.

“That’s one way of putting it,” I say, my voice ragged. “You’re extraordinary.”

She smiles, shaking her head. “I’m incredibly ordinary.”

“Nope. And if you keep denying it, I’ll definitely write a song about it.”

“You wouldn’t.”

“Oh, but I would. Someone keeps telling me that all the stuff I write is too depressing and pissed off. Blissed-out would be a nice change.”

I kiss her shoulder before getting up to deal with the condom in the en suite bathroom. Thankful as hell there is one, because I don’t want to face Otis right now. I come back with a damp cloth for her and help her clean up. Then I pull on my underwear and pants. My shirt. And she tugs on her Buchanan Brewery shirt.

“Are you leaving?” she asks.

I don’t know if I’m imagining it, or if there’s really a thread of sadness in her voice. But I’m supposed to leave, aren’t I? Thatwas the deal. Rebound sex isn’t cuddling and sweet whispered words. It’s hard and fast and good, against a wall.

“Yeah,” I say. “I need to get something to eat.” Her eyes widen, but I put up a hand. “You don’t have to take care of me, Soph. I can feed myself. Get some rest. You deserve it.”

She has a compulsion to take care of everyone and solve their problems, and I don’t want to be one more person she can be of service to.

Her lips purse. “Do you have anything in your fridge?”
