God.She moved on top of him in increasingly desperate motions.He sucked her nipples like they were candy, his palms spread wide over her bottom.She was going to climax before he even got her pants off.
“Jason,” she pleaded.
His response was low and incoherent.
“Jason,” she said again.
With a strangled growl, he lifted her from the couch and carried her toward the mattress.He lay her down on her back, removed her leggings and panties in a swift yank, and asked, “Is this what you want?”
“Yes.”
Watching her face, he slid his hand between her thighs.Pleasure drizzled through her as he parted her slick folds.When he slid one finger inside, she inhaled sharply.He held himself very still as her body sheathed his finger.She was extremely wet.She dug her nails into his shoulders, her legs quivering with desire.
“I think we can skip foreplay,” she said.
His nostrils flared at the suggestion.“Why?”
“I’m ready.”
He knew this, of course.Her slippery heat grasped his finger.“We can’t skip foreplay,” he said in a low rasp.“The main event might only last thirty seconds.”
She chuckled at this concern, but the sound turned into a gasp of pleasure.After he plunged his finger deep, making her shudder, he withdrew to stroke the swollen bud at the top of her sex.She gripped his wrist, trembling as he circled and teased.He had a deft touch, unsurprisingly.He alternated between dipping his fingers into her sultry sex and sliding them over her swollen clitoris.
When she was near the edge of climax, he stopped touching her and eased away.She gaped at him in frustration as he finally shrugged out of his flannel shirt.His chest, dazzling as always, rippled with muscle in the firelight.Her camisole was still bunched around her waist.She pulled the garment over her head, impatient to get on with it.
He had that smug look again, like he knew how eager she was to have him inside her.His mouth moved down her restless, overheated body.He kissed her quivering belly, her hipbones, and lower.
Apparently, he wasn’t going to skip anything.
She should have known.A man as thorough and hardworking as Jason Reed wouldn’t make love to a woman without proper preparations.His palms flattened on her inner thighs, spreading them wide.She was too aroused to feel embarrassed as he studied her exposed flesh.She certainly wasn’t going to tell him no after he’d stimulated her to a fever pitch.When his tongue touched her aching center, she lost all inhibitions and surrendered completely to him.He was even better with his mouth than his hands.He kissed and sucked at her expertly.Within moments, she was crying out loud, shattering into a million pieces.
He didn’t wait until she’d recovered from her orgasm to position himself over her.Rolling a condom down his length, he fit the blunt tip against her throbbing sex.She got the impression that he wanted to take her hard and fast, but he didn’t.He pushed into her with caution, gritting his teeth.Despite her abundant wetness, he was a large man, and her body didn’t accept him easily.His shoulders quaked from the effort of holding himself in check.When he slid deeper, they both groaned at the sensation.He filled her deliciously.She trembled in his arms, lifting her lips to his neck.
Slowly, with great care, he started to move on top of her.Even now, he didn’t rush to the finish.He watched her face again, then her breasts, as he thrust inside her.She wrapped her arms and legs around him, moaning helplessly.He braced above her, rock-steady, and tortured them both with an agonizing pace.It was so good she almost wept.She’d missed the feel of a man’s weight on her, his hard body pressing down on hers.Jason proved as adept at the main event as everything else.Instead of thrusting mindlessly toward his own pleasure, he took care of her again.He slid his hand between them to touch the place where their bodies were joined.His mouth found hers, kissing hotly as he stroked her.
She kissed him back with passionate fervor.His thumb swept over her most sensitive spot in a perfect rhythm, dragging her toward another climax.When she flew over the edge a second time, his control broke.Gripping her hips, he pounded into her with powerful strokes.Pleasure continued to crest over her in waves that wouldn’t diminish.Maybe it was the months she’d spent alone and untouched.Maybe it was their amazing physical chemistry or his natural skill in the bedroom.He was dexterous, industrious, and built to satisfy a woman.Whatever the reason, she rocketed into a third, incredible orgasm.
She dug her fingernails into his shoulders and cried out his name.He surged and heaved against her as he found his own release.
While she lay there with her eyes closed, out of breath, and stunned into a stupor, he rose to his feet.Over the pound of her heartbeat, she could hear water running in the bathroom.He came back and settled in beside her.She snuggled against his chest, drowsy with satiation.Little by little, reality returned.
Actually, itintruded.
Because fantastic sex was just fantastic sex.It wasn’t a panacea.It hadn’t solved any of the problems they’d argued about last night.It certainly hadn’t cured Jason’s sleeping issues.While her body felt boneless, wrung out from pleasure, his muscles were tense.She remembered his strange reaction to being awoken earlier and his ongoing trouble with nightmares.He wouldn’t let himself fall asleep next to her.
“Are you always this good?”she murmured.
“Yes.”
She smiled at his lack of modesty and gave his arm a teasing punch.Sex had never been this earth-shattering for her, not even with Mike.Her amusement faded at the thought.The comparison felt wrong and unfair, like a betrayal to her husband’s memory.She swallowed hard, wondering if letting Jason touch her had been a mistake.She hadn’t expected it to be so… transformative.
“Don’t do that,” Jason said.
“Do what?”
“Regret a single moment of what we did.”
Her stomach clenched with unease.He’d hit the bullseye, but she didn’t want to talk about her feelings.She needed to be alone for a while to consider the repercussions of her actions.Wrapping a blanket around her naked body, she rose to her feet.“I should go.Marcus might wake up.”
