Page 37 of Chasing Me

“Don’t say that,” I ground out.I leaned in so my mouth was inches from hers.“Do you think I’m just going to let you walk out of my life without a fight?I’ll do anything necessary to keep you, Quinn.Anything.”

Her eyes lit up with a furious need that mirrored my own.I watched as the spark ignited, knew when the sexual hunger began to burn out of control, mocking anything else but the craving to be naked with each other, entwined, connected in the only way that ever made sense.Her voice trembled.“You think sex can solve this?”she threw out.Her body shook.“I don’t think so.In fact, now I know the reason you’ve held back with me.You were saving it for your fucking teacher.”

I stared at her in pure shock.“What are you talking about?”

“You used to rip me apart with your need to get inside me.But now you’re controlled.Oh, you’re a great lover, and can wring a string of orgasms from me, but there’s something missing.Now I know what it is.”

Holy shit.She thought my desperate need to control my inner animal was an insult?A sign I wanted someone else?The past few months of how hard I tried to give her what I thought she expected flashed before me, and I finally realized how wrong I’d been.Quinn could take anything I gave her.She probably reveled in the primitive way I claimed her.Of course she’d wondered why I suddenly changed.I groaned in frustration.I tried to explain.“Quinn, I was trying to change for you!It had nothing to do with Ava, or any other woman.You’re the one I want with my last dying breath.I didn’t want to treat you like an animal!I wanted to give you romance, and passion, and sweetness.I wanted to adore every part of you in the way you deserve.”

“Whatever you want to tell yourself,” she tossed out.“I’m done with this conversation.”

In a flash, I realized the only thing to do was unveil my real self again.The man I truly was, dark, and dirty, and possessive.Raw and uncivilized.For her.Only her.

My grip tightened.“You’re not going anywhere,” I growled.“You think I’m going to let you fly off to Key West without proving what you mean to me?I’m done with the lies, and pretending to be someone else with you.Someone I believed you deserved.”

“I never wanted you to pretend!”she shouted.

“Good,” I growled, yanking her head back.I lowered myself over her.“Because I’m going to fuck you so long and hard you’ll never forget it again.”

“Fuck you!”

My mouth slammed down on hers, and I was lost.

Her taste always drugged me, but knowing I could lose her drove me into insanity.I held her as my tongue thrust past her lips, conquering her sweet, wet mouth while I backed her up until she slammed against the wall.

She fought me for a while, twisting and trying to get away, but I also knew how bad she wanted me to conquer her, how she craved to feel that wild high when I fucked her, so I kept my grip firm and my kiss deep, until she began to soften, trembling beneath me, and then I had her.But I also needed the words.

“Tell me you want this, Quinn.”I bit her lip, and she moaned.“Tell me, or I’ll stop.”

She shuddered.“I want this.”

This wasn’t about finesse or gentleness.This was about a primitive claiming of man to his mate.I kissed her hard, bruising her lips, soothing with my tongue, and yanked her sweater and bra off.Keeping my knee pressed against between her thighs to hold her in place, I ducked my head and sucked on her nipple.She cried out, arching up for more, and I bit and licked and plumped her tits, drowning in her gorgeous, clean scent, reveling in the smooth silkiness of her pale skin.My mouth never paused as my fingers deftly unsnapped her jeans and pushed them, along with her underwear, to her ankles.She was still wearing her boots.

Quinn wiggled to kick the fabric loose, but I stilled her, dropping to my knees as I licked her navel, pressing my lips to her mound, breathing in her musky arousal, knowing she’d drip over my fingers with her excitement.

“I love your sweet pussy,” I murmured.“Love how you clench around my cock when I push inside you.Love the way you cream for me and draw blood on my back when you get too excited.You’re so fucking beautiful.”

She panted in response to my dirty talk, and I was disgusted with myself for denying both of us the excitement of being everything we wanted in the bedroom.When had I decided to be a nice guy when I made love to my woman?When had I lost my way?

“I want you to come against my tongue,” I ordered.

“Oh, God, James, don’t—”

“Come hard, Quinn.”I pushed her pink lips apart and attacked her pussy, licking at her hard clit with sharp, stinging strokes that pumped her to the edge fast, my fingers curling and plunging into her wet channel, that hot, sweet cunt sucking me in deep and begging for more.She screamed and writhed against my mouth, and I went wild, parting her wider, using the flat of my tongue over her dripping slit, then circling her throbbing clit until I finally closed my teeth around the nub and bit gently.

She came hard, thrashing her head against the door, and I swallowed every drop, making sure to extend her climax.I yanked off her boots, pulling off her pants and underwear, then stood up.Her hands grabbed at me, halfway drunk with pleasure, but I held her off, shoving down my pants in one quick movement and grabbing her knee.Bending slightly, I hooked my knee under her left thigh and dragged open her legs.

“Wrap your arms around my neck.”

She did, shaking, and I growled my approval and bit her neck.She shuddered and cried out again.“Hold on tight, Quinn.My cock needs to be inside you, needs to be swallowed whole by your gorgeous cunt, which is all pink and wet and glistening.”I pushed myself inside until I was buried deep.My eyes rolled to the back of my head, it felt so fucking good, so tight and hot, squeezing my dick mercilessly.

“James!”

“That’s right, baby, scream my name, I’m the only one who can make you come like this, aren’t I?Now, give it to me, all of it.”Hoisting her up against the door, I lifted her high and slammed her back down on my cock.She cried out, and I did it again, lifting and thrusting, over and over, going so deep inside her I didn’t know where I ended and she began.I took her like the animal I was, rough and raw, with no finesse or anything tender, and she loved every fucking second of it.Her nails dragged down my back, my mouth bit her neck, and she was coming and screaming against me, and I never stilled my thrusting until I exploded and splashed my semen inside her, marking her for good, marking her as mine.

Sweaty, exhausted, we sank to the floor in a tangle of naked limbs and clothes surrounding us.I smoothed back her hair, and we tried to catch our breath.Peace settled over me, and a rightness reminding me Quinn was the other half of my soul.I’d never question myself, or us together, again.

“I never meant to make you doubt how much I want you,” I said.“I was stupid.Trying to be a man I thought was better for you.”
