“No…but it still might send you running.” I opened the door, and Lexie glanced around my shoulder as I turned on the light. “Welcome to your room.”
“What?” she gasped out, her eyes currently cataloging everything. The deep olive color of the walls, matched with deep mahogany shelves that had already started to house the wine collection I started for her.
She slipped past me, running her hands over everything, her eyes catching on the sitting area I was currently in the middle of crafting for her, but I wanted opinions on. Currently, there were two overstuffed chairs, with a small table between them and the board game Clue. I had thought it was funny, setting it up like an old-school detective might have, and had a feeling she would love it as well.
“This is…this is the nicest thing anyone’s ever done for me,” Tears brimmed her eyes, and I rushed to her. “No, Starlight, no tears. I can’t stand them.”
“These are happy tears, I promise.” She waved my concerns away, and I reached out, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. At that moment, everything shifted. The playful atmosphere transformed into something charged. I leaned closer, breathing her air in.
“Lexie,” I murmured, my voice strained.
She looked up at me, her eyes darkening with desire. “What are you thinking?”
I didn’t answer. Instead, I closed the distance between us, capturing her lips with mine. The kiss was soft at first, a gentle exploration, but it quickly deepened as she responded, her hands finding their way to my shoulders.
I pulled Lexie close, my hands resting on her waist, feeling the heat radiate from her body. The kiss ignited a fire within me, and I couldn’t help but deepen it, my tongue sliding against hers as she melted against me.
Her fingers ended up tangled in my hair within seconds, pulling me closer still. I could feel her heart racing against my chest. I broke the kiss, breathing heavily, and looked into her eyes, searching for any hesitation. Instead, I saw nothing but desire and a small pout that I’d pulled away.
“Are you sure about this?” I asked, my voice a rough whisper.
Lexie nodded, unwavering, “Yes. I’ve never been more sure of anything.”
That was all I needed. I captured her lips again, this time with even more urgency. My hands roamed Lexie’s back, feeling the softness of her body against mine. Everything faded away, and it was just the two of us, lost in the moment.
I led her to one of the plush chairs, and we sank into it together, her body fitting perfectly against mine. My hands explored the curves of her waist and hips as her fingers danced along my jaw and down my neck.
“Jace,” she breathed against my lips, her voice thick with need.
“I want you, Lexie,” I confessed, the words spilling out before I could think.
“Then take me,” she replied, her voice held a sultry challenge I couldn’t ignore and sent a rush of heat through me.
With a surge of desire at her words, I lifted her effortlessly, and she wrapped her legs around my waist as I stood. Lexie’s laughter mingled with a gasp of surprise as I carried her down the hall and to my bedroom—no way was I fucking her for the first time on a table.
Our kisses grew more urgent as I placed her down on the bed. I trailed kisses down her neck, savoring and becoming addicted to the taste of her skin. She shivered beneath me, her breath hitching as I explored her collarbone.
“Jace,” she begged, and my resolve slipped. I growled over her moaning my name.
I trailed kisses down her neck and slid my hands underneath her tank top and peeled it off, kissing my way down her stomach until I reached the button of her jeans.
“Do you want to take them off, or do you want me to?” I asked, wanting to give her some control over the situation and let her know she could stop at any time, even if it would take all of my resolve to walk away.
“You, please,” she said on a sigh.
“My pleasure.” I undid the button and slowly pulled them down her thighs, trailing my fingers lightly over the softness of her bare thighs. She was absolutely drenched through her lacy black underwear, and I could smell her arousal.
“Starlight, do I get to have you for dessert?”
Her whimpers were the only response I got, but that was fine by me because my girl’s thighs were already trembling, and I hadn’t even gotten started. She looked like a goddess spread out on my bed. Her smooth, silky skin glowed, along with her red hair, and I was done for.
I slowly spread her thighs apart, taking my time, nibbling and sucking every inch of her I could get my mouth on before she was thrusting her pussy in my face, begging for some kind of friction.
“Is my girl feeling needy? Does she need something from me?” I took my pointer finger and slid it up and down between her slit, gathering her wetness, and I couldn’t help but moan as I shoved my finger into my mouth.
“Please Jace,please.” she begged.
“You taste so fucking good, Starlight.” I took my time licking her taste from my finger, wanting to tease her just a little bit more.
