The slow pace continued until Kat’s hips moved faster. He matched her speed, pulling out almost entirely and sinking back in. Each movement left Kat yearning for more, the pleasure growing with every motion, like somehow, even inside her, he knew exactly where and how to hit every sensitive part.This.Thiswas what people said about sex.

Except this was better.

Nex quickened his pace and wrapped an arm under her back. Curling his hand around her shoulder, he held her as he sank into her faster and harder. Kat moaned and threw back her head, her fiery hair spilling across the sheets. His other hand pinned her hip in place as he thrust into her. She clamped around him so snug he could barely take anymore.

“Nex.” Kat dug her nails into his shoulders as the pleasure burst. Her body tensed, pulsating around him, waves of ecstasy and intimacy nearly drowning her in a blissful state.

The moment was beyond physical. Being together was being complete, like every broken part they had somehow fit together to make them whole. Their passion and pleasure ascended to a level neither of them, not even Nex, had experienced.

He slid in a few more times, sank deep, then groaned, holding her tight with small thrusts while he finished. He dropped his head into her neck, placing a kiss on the spot that always got a reaction. It earned a tired but pleasurable sound, and he smiled against her skin. “Not so unrealistic after all, huh?”

“No.” Kat panted, unable to open her eyes. “That was . . .”

“Yes.” Nex’s lips brushed hers. “Yes, it was.”

Chapter 25

Close

KatwokewithNexclose. For the past month, he’d often slept near her, especially if she’d been crying. This time they were skin to skin, his arm around her waist possessively, their bodies so close nothing could come between them. Nex’s nose was buried in the crook of her neck. Kat’s back was pressed against Nex’s chest, his body curled around hers. His other arm came up from under her and wrapped over her breasts, hand curved around her shoulder.

Kat woke first, warm despite the chill in the house. She shifted, and Nex’s grip tightened. Her eyes fluttered open, and she glanced down at his strong arms, admiring the corded muscles and veins, the way they held her like she was precious.

A smile crept over her face, and she sank back against him, closing her eyes. When they opened again, she stared at the alarm clock’s obnoxious, glowing green numbers. Soon, it would go off, demanding she get up for work. She didn’t want to. She wanted to stay with Nex like this forever if she could.

Deciding she’d rather not risk another broken clock—this was her fourth—she reached to shut it off, but the tips of her fingers fell shy of the button. She tried to wiggle out of his hold, but it caused him to groan and hold her tighter. Hot breath hit her neck as he nuzzled against her. The sensation elicited a tremor of excitement, more so when his raspy morning voice rumbled in her ear.

“Where do you think you’re going?” His hand at her waist pet circles on her skin.

Kat’s eyes slid shut. How could a simple touch make her want him again? “I have to get ready for work.”

“Not yet. That annoying box hasn’t gone off.” His nose roamed her neck, his lips brushing her skin. “You trying to get away from me early?”

“No.” Kat drew her thighs together as his hardness pushed against her butt. “I thought I’d turn it off before it bothered you.”

Nex grunted and gripped her hip, rocking himself against her. “I don’t think so, kitten. You’re not going anywhere.”

Kat angled her head to give him better access to her neck. He licked and bit, sucking her skin into his mouth and leaving a mark. Her hands curled around his forearm as he ground against her.

“Katherine.” His hand moved to her thigh. “I want you. You want me inside you again?” Kat blushed and nodded. Nex chuckled and nudged her legs open, sliding his finger down the length of her aching core. He circled her clit, earning a whimper. “So wet, kitten,” he said in a half-growl. “I’m not accepting a nod. Only a yes. Do you want me inside you again?”

Fire pulsed through her when his finger slid inside. “Yes.”

Nex nipped her neck and added a second finger, sliding them in and out until her nails dug into his arm. Each time, he learned where to touch to have her falling apart faster.

She moaned as she came, and her inner walls gripped his fingers, overwhelming euphoria taking over. The way her body contracted and relaxed into satisfaction made her want to stay in bed longer.

As it was ending, his shaft slid into her. She gasped and tightened her hold on his arm. Something about it was better than last night.

“So fucking wet.” Nex groaned, sinking inside and grasping her hip. “How does it feel, kitten? Are you sore?”

Kat moaned when he thrust. “Not sore. It feels good.”

Nex moved faster, holding her where he wanted as he sank in over and over. Kat rocked against him, and he kissed and sucked her neck, deliberately over spots that made her clench. Every movement made her addiction to him grow. An addiction to the incredible physical sensation caressing the sensitive parts inside her, to the emotional intimacy of being close to him, and the undeniable high that made her feel she could float away.

His movements were harder than last night. Kat gasped, making Nex groan and hit deeper. “You like that, kitten?”

She nodded, and Nex growled, biting down on her neck so hard she yelped and moaned all at once, the action making her clench.
