She gripped his hand and tugged him toward her. “And then you can kiss me.”

“I can kiss you right now.” To prove his point, he did. A five o’clock shadow had darkened his jaw, lightly scraping against her as he moved in. Ruggedly handsome and the epitome of a bad boy, he had the most kissable lips. Ella couldn’t get enough. “We don’t need to go inside for that. There wasn’t even tongue.”

She brought his hand to her stomach and pushed it lower until his fingers brushed against her crotch. “Here.”

“Oh, that. I can definitely do that.”

Ella pulled him back into her apartment and let him press her up against the door after they’d closed it. He kissed and licked along her neck while his hands held her hips to him.

“I changed my mind.” Ella pushed lightly at his chest. Her hands dropped to his pants, quickly undoing them. “I want you inside me instead.”

“Ah, Ella.” He groaned when she wrapped her fingers around his cock. “You’re going to be the death of me.”

Her thumb stroked along the tip of his cock. He went hard almost instantly and she couldn’t help loving that she had that effect on him. Cupping her cheeks, he kissed her. His tongue sought entrance to her mouth and succeeded, stroking along hers in its own fucking-like rhythm.

“Condom.” He pulled away briefly to find the condoms they’d left near the bed and grabbed one. She watched as he stepped out of his pants and came to her, quickly rolling the condom on in a smooth, practiced motion. He yanked her shorts down and lifted her, pressing her body between his and the door.

With his fingers gripping her ass, each glorious inch of his cock pressed into her. She gasped at the fullness, their position making him feel bigger than he had on the bed. How the hell she’d gone so long without sex was beyond her. He seated himself inside her, then proceeded to fuck her hard against the door.

Leaning forward, he sucked her nipple into his mouth. She dug her heels into his perfect ass, gasping as he thrust into her hard. This was what she wanted. Her arms went around his neck as she combed her fingers through his hair. She tugged his hair hard enough to pull his lips from her breast and kissed him, biting at his fleshly lower lip before sucking it.

Their groans mingled in the otherwise silent room as he pulled her away from the door and buried himself inside her. Ella held on to him as he carried her to the bed. He dropped her onto it, then stood at the edge. Ryker pulled back, staring down at her while his hips pumped into her. His cock repeatedly hit a place inside her pussy that made her eyes roll to the back of her head. She gasped, clutching the sheets beneath her, straining as he drove her to ecstasy. Pleasure coursed through her, hot as fire and no less intense. Her back arched off the mattress while her pussy squeezed him.

He leaned over her and pushed harder and deeper, coming in her arms as she wrapped them around his sweat-slicked body. She wanted to wrap herself in him. To hold him and love him like he did her.

“I think you woke the neighborhood with that one.” Ryker chuckled against her cheek before kissing her. “Damn, I need something stronger than a cigarette.”

Ella closed her eyes as he withdrew from her. He took care of the condom and checked his phone.

“Do you need to leave?”

He glanced up at her. “Nah.” He paused. “Do you want me to go?”

She laughed. “Not anytime soon.”

He walked toward her and settled them both in the bed. She curled up next to him and kissed his chest. She tried to remember anything about his family and came up blank. His grandfather took him to school and when he got his license, he rode his motorcycle. She’d been a girl tempted by the leather jacket and cocky attitude and she’d wanted to ride on the back of that bike with him.

“I know you won’t talk about the club with me, but can I ask you something personal?”

“You can ask me anything you want.”

She chewed on her lower lip. “I know about your father. I’ve seen your grandfather pick you up from school a time or two. Did you have a mother? Was she around while you were growing up?”

He blew out a harsh breath. “No. My father raised me. My mother was just a woman he used to get him the offspring he wanted.”

She frowned at him. “You never knew her?”

“Nope.” He rubbed a hand over his face. “The only family I have is club.”

She thought about it for a while, though she didn’t say anything. She couldn’t imagine growing up without her mother. Her father was great but he had a very different role in her life than her mom. She rubbed Ryker’s chest, wondering what it would have been like to live that kind of life. He didn’t have a huge sense of family commitment, or commitment in general. He was loyal to the club but she knew quite well that she’d never be considered part of that life. It made her pause, questioning where they fit together or if they did fit together.

“I really need this to be something more than a one-night stand.” Ella rubbed her hand along the ripples of muscle making up his toned stomach. “Please tell me that there is more between us.”

He didn’t say anything for a long time. Ella thought he’d actually gone to sleep before she glanced up and saw him staring at the ceiling. She propped herself up next to him and rested her chin on his chest.

“What’s wrong?”

He took a deep breath. “Nothing.”

“Ryker, you can talk to me.”

“I know.” He tried to give her a reassuring smile. “We’re more than a one-night stand.” He leaned over to kiss her. “You should probably get some sleep. You’re going to be dragging tomorrow morning when you go in for work.”

“I’m on-call. I don’t have to go in unless I’m paged.” She caressed his stomach. “There are times when you look so happy, Ryker. And then there are times when you’re a million miles away looking like someone killed your dog.”

He rolled over and pulled her ass against him, wrapping his arms around her. “I’m fine.” He kissed her shoulder. “Quit worrying about me.”

Ella lay there until his breathing became deep and even. She listened to the sounds of him sleeping, feeling less convinced that his words were true. Whatever he had on his mind was off limits with her. She kissed his fingers, loving how his large hand fit in her small one. Maybe he would open up to her completely one day. Until then, all she could do was love him.
