“Yes,” she whispered. More wetness pooled between her legs at Jaz’s touch. Jaz stroked until she was dripping and then spread the moisture over Dani’s clit.
“Fuck,” Jaz groaned as her fingertips slipped through her hot flesh coated in arousal.
After only a few moments, Dani was already on the edge and felt like she was about to come. She continued to roll her hips forward into Jaz’s delicate touch. She felt the building of her orgasm in her own body. Jaz finally slipped a finger inside, and Dani’s eyes closed on their own volition. She cursed and bore down on that invading digit.
She pushed in another finger, and Dani dug her blunt nails into her back. Jaz tucked her head into her neck, kissing and nipping her pulse point. She ground her hips into Dani to give her more purchase as she kept her pace.
Dani’s body was thrumming with a feverish intensity while Jaz’s hands skillfully pushed her closer and closer to nirvana. “Don’t stop, right there,” Dani begged, sending a pulse of white-hot need rushing through her veins.
And she didn’t, over and over, Jaz thrust her toward the edge. She could feel the tingles overtake her body, indicating her incoming orgasm.
Jaz raised her head from her neck and looked into her eyes, like she was trying to stare into her soul. She had never had a partner gaze at her so intently during sex, it was intoxicating.
Being with this woman felt different from any other sexual experience she’d had.
Her fingers slipped deeper into Dani’s heat, drawing out the quiet gasps of her pending release. Jaz quickly found that exact spot inside her that made Dani lift off the bed, and in one fell swoop, pleasure surged through her in powerful waves. Her breath grew shallow and pleasure burst through her like a flare, white-hot and blazing, as she tossed her head back and clenched around Jaz’s fingers.
She cried out, her body trembling uncontrollably. Lost in the overwhelming force of her climax. With each twist and shudder of her body, Jaz held on, coaxing wave after wave of unimaginable bliss from her body until there was nothing left.
And nothing to stop her from falling.
Chapter 14
The morning light, a soft, diffused glow, crept through the blinds, painting stripes across the rumpled sheets. She could see out the window in the distance, the Ohio River beneath the Cincinnati skyline. Another city, another tournament. But this morning was different. The last few mornings had been different. Because she was waking up with Dani next to her.
Jaz stirred, a slow, languid stretch that brought her closer to the warmth beside her. Their legs intertwined, and their arms rested on each other in a loose, relaxed cuddle, bodies humming and happy on hormones. Dani lay beside her and with only a cotton sheet draped over her naked body. Even with a light snore coming from her parted lips, she was the sexiest thing Jaz had ever seen. She could lie here with Dani for hours, wondering if she was going to wake up from this dream.
She's gotten so used to being alone, and now she hadsomeone.
Being with Dani was opening her up to new possibilities and new ways of doing things. Dani constantly kept her on her toes. Even though she was dating a tennis player, Jaz was thinking about things other thantennis. They would have dinner or do a movie night. Dani became the first thing she thought about in the morning. Not her last match or next match.
It was eye-opening to have something else at the forefront of her mind. She was discovering her own ability to let go, to embrace the moment without fear. She relished the intimacy of their new dynamic, where it felt okay to be open with the things she was feeling. Feelings she didn’t even know she was capable of. Though they were opposites in every way, they fit like a glove. She was in this new, unexpected place where vulnerability felt safe, where desire met emotion in perfect harmony.
Jaz wanted to chase this high, which was better than any win she’d ever had on a tennis court. It was scary, but also something she wasn’t running away from. She never realized how much she’d missed that kind of intimacy. Maybe it was the place she was in her career, but when she was with Dani, the number of Grand Slams or how many unforced errors she had were the last thing on her mind. It was what she and Dani would do togetheraftertraining oraftera match. She was looking forward to theafter.
And that after was now filled with lots of sex. She thought she and Lena had a good sex life, but maybe it was just the newness of her sexual awakening. Because being with Dani made her wonder if she’d ever even had an orgasm before. No one had touched her like this—with such passion and urgency. There was this raw attraction that she couldn’t get enough of, something that kept her awake at night like never before. She remembered their first time slipping between Dani’s thighs, as smoothly as Dani’s face slipped between hers. She was tight and warm around Jaz’s fingers, clenching and pulling Jaz deeper each time she bottomed out.
Just thinking about it right now made her want to have Dani again. She reached out, her fingers feather-light against her skin. Dani turned, a sleepy smile curving her lips.
She fell into those green, intoxicating eyes. She gently tucked a stray strand of her hair behind her ear, marveling at the soft texture and the way it caught the light. There was no awkwardness, no hesitant pause. Just the easy, unspoken agreement of what they now were.
A soft moan escaped her lips as her hand moved to cup her cheek, her thumb gently brushing her lower lip. The clock on the bedside table glowed with a cruel, insistent light, a reminder of the obligations that awaited them. But Jaz didn’t care. She pulled Dani closer and placed a lingering kiss on her lips, a silent acknowledgment of the euphoria that had taken hold of them.
She continued to place soft kisses on her mouth. Pulling her lips slowly from Dani’s mouth, she kissed along her jaw and across her cheek until she reached her earlobe, giving it a nip and suck. She finally made her way down to Dani’s neck and pulse point, where she knew her lover was sensitive.
“God, this is the best way to wake up.” Dani moaned in a breathy whisper as she tilted her head, exposing her neck.
“This is only just the beginning, honey.” It was a term of endearment that had started recently, and Dani had told her how much she liked it. That Jaz had such a gentle and soft moniker just for her. It made Jaz warm all over, that simple words could have that kind of effect on Dani.
“We have to go,” Dani murmured, her voice soft but reluctant.
They both knew they had to leave, to separate, and return to the demands of their day. But her body betrayed her words, and she tilted her hips up against Jaz. She felt the slickness of Dani’s sex, and it made Jaz’s mind spin, the way Dani wanted her. And immediately, Jaz wanted more. It was a slow burn that refused to be extinguished.
“I know, but I promise I’ll be quick,” she replied, her voice equally hushed. All she wanted to do was lose herself in the wonder of their newfound connection.
She moved from Dani’s neck to her collarbone to the two small mounds she couldn’t help but put her mouth on. Dani’s breasts weren’t as sensitive as hers, but she made sure to always give them a bit of attention.
She would never tire of this feeling, of having her mouth on Dani’s skin. Jaz made her way down Dani’s body, muscular and lean in the way only lifelong athletes could be. The sheets fell away, and they were both left naked in the morning light. It was a lot easier to be confident in the dark instead of the daylight she’d realized, but she was trying not to let her insecurities about her body and age show. And just be present with Dani.
