Page 63 of Indecent Lies

“We’re done.”

She frowned. “But why? Didn’t you like kissing me?”

If she couldn’t have his mouth, she pressed her cheek to his and roamed over the bristles.

She loved his skin, especially his masculine scent, she wanted to roll in it like a puppy until she was covered andowned.

“I was halfway down your throat, Poppy. Of course I like kissing you. Do you feel that against your belly?”

She’d be a halfwit if she didn’t.

It was part of the reason she wanted his mouth back.

“That’s why we’re stopping.”

Her frown doubled down. “Is it because I’m inexperienced? Because let me tell you,mister, in my head, I’m quite the slut. Test me out, I’ll prove it. I’ve watched porn, you know.”

Without warning, Tait started laughing and then he rolled off her, hit the floor and went right on laughing his ass off.

“Fuck, you are cute.”

“She craned half of her body over the side of the couch to look down at him sprawled like a well-dressed fighter. “But you think I’m hot too, right?”

She was not above fishing. Just watch her cast her rod … or whatever they called it.

She wanted to be more than cute to him.

His face sobered and Poppy caught a breath at how powerfully he was gazing up at her. Some of her hair hung down over her shoulder and he took the ends in his fingers.

It was impossible not to see from the vantage point she was at and the way he was laid on the floor, the big thing protruding from his half-worn jeans at the front.

A big gulp of air stopped in Poppy’s throat and she was forced to wrench her gaze away.It had felt nice pushed into her stomach and now she wanted to feel it in other places and in her hands.

She was not telling lies when she told him she was a slut in her mind.

She didn’t need physical practice to know what she liked or what her body craved.

So she went for it, falling on top of him un-lady like, it was a sort of whale roll and when Tait grunted, she took that opportunity God himself presented and smashed his lips under hers.

Give him his due, it didn’t take him but a second to get with it and take over. Spearing her hair with his fingers, he took over and devoured her.

“Goddammit, Poppy.” He groaned, going in deeper and then with one last kiss he wrenched her away, heavy breathing. “No more, or you’ll find yourself fucked right here, and that’s not what an innocent woman needs.”

In a small voice, lying on top of Tait, with his hands still holding her face, she confessed something she wanted him to know. “I want to tell you why it never worked with any of my boyfriends. They couldn’t give me what Iwanted.”

“What was that?”

“You really want to know?”

“I’m sure those pricks could afford anything you needed.”

Poppy smiled sadly. Yeah, he’d think she was all about the materialism when all she’d ever wished for was to be wanted.Desired.

To be the center of someone’s universe, when they couldn’t see anyone but her.

To put her needs and wants first in the same way she’d do for her man.

She wasn’t a commodity or a thing to acquire and show off.
