And then his hands were on her. Big, warm, rough, and callused. She caught her lip between her teeth, closed her eyes as his palm skimmed over her naked flesh, cupping her breasts, reacquainting himself with her sensitive nipples. She was getting warmer, wetter, with each new caress, and when his hand slid down over her ass, dipping between her legs from behind, teasing her clit, she almost exploded.
She jerked back and even in the dim light, she could sense his questions.Too much? Too soon?
As if.
She narrowed her eyes, holding his gaze as she put her hands on his chest and started slowly backing him toward the bunk. When his legs hit the edge, she pushed. Ty went down, snagging her by the waist and pulling her with him at the last second. Shelby gasped and laughed as she landed on top of him. He kept hold of her and rolled and the next thing she knew she was beneath him. He laughed softly, then propped himself on his elbows and took her face between his hands, kissing her deeply. Shelby kissed him back, savoring the feeling of being trapped beneath his long, hard body. She broke the kiss, nipping his lip before and trailing her mouth along his neck and jawline, tasting the salt on his flesh, drawing in his scent before reaching between them to take his swollen cock in her hand. If anything it got bigger as she circled it with her fingers.
Ty rolled off from her, dropping an arm over her and pulling closer as he reached between her legs to once again explore her very hot, wet depths. He muttered something against her hair as he teased her clit, and his cock bobbing in her hand.
“Now,” she murmured against his neck. Next time would be slow.
Ty did not need a second invitation. He put a hand on her hip and rolled her beneath him. Their hands met at his erection and together they guided him in. Shelby’s breath stopped as he slowly pushed inside of her and then, when he hit the end, she suddenly gasped and bucked against him.
Her orgasm hit her hard, taking both by surprise. Ty stilled for all of a nanosecond before he started moving, his strokes long and slow as if he were savoring every second of being inside of her. Then he started moving fast, more desperately, and toward the end, he was hammering her. And she loved it. Shelby felt another climax building and just as he slammed into her one final time, she arched against him—hard—and the world around her shattered again…
Best damned shattering ever.
Shelby felt dizzy as she let her head roll on the mattress. Ty pulled in a ragged breath before he slowly lowered himself, collapsing on his side next to her. Shelby dropped a limp arm over his side.
“Next time will be more civilized,” he finally muttered when he’d caught his breath.
She smiled a little. “I hope not.”

Ty hadn’t intendedto fall asleep. He woke with a start, then stilled as he realized Shelby was still in his arms. Where she belonged. She raised sleepy eyes, a sensual smile curving her full lips.
“Again?” she murmured.
He laughed and she curled back into him. “Yeah. Again. In a bit.” He pulled her a little closer. “Are you glad we did this?”
“Yes.” She stretched against him, her smooth thighs pressing against his legs. “It wasn’t like we could keep doing things the way we were. Pretending we didn’t feel anything.”
“It was kind of miserable.” And he didn’t want to go there again. He idly stroked a hand over her hair. “Do you want to tell me more about these fears that you’re facing?”
“They’re just… things I need to work through.”
“Alone?” She nodded against his shoulder. “So what happens now?”
She ran her palm over his chest, idly playing with the hair there. “We take things slowly. See what happens.”
“No declarations? No commitments?” Because they’d been committed before and he didn’t see where it wouldn’t be possible to be committed again.
She looked up at him. “I honestly don’t know.”
“If you were to ask me not to ride—”
“I won’t.” The words popped out of her mouth instantly and he could see that she’d given the matter some thought. He could also see that she was dead serious.
She settled her palm on his chest and rested her chin on it. “I did that once before. I won’t do it again.”
“Are you sure?”
She smiled a little. “Yeah. I am.”
There were still things between them. Things they weren’t saying, things that needed worked out. And Ty honestly didn’t know if they would ever be able to do that, but he was willing to live with the here and now.
He lifted her free hand to his mouth, kissed her knuckles. And damned if his dick didn’t take notice that his mouth was at work. And Shelby noticed and arched her pelvis against him.
