Sandor knocked at Nox’s door, grinning. “I won’t. She’s young, she’ll find some young boy to fall in love with next week.” He opened the door. “Hey, Renaud, found this little treasure inreception.”

Nox looked delighted to see her. “Hey, beautiful, what a nice surprise.” He came to greet her, kissing her on the mouth, lingering over it. Roansnickered.

“Getaroom.”

Livia, blushing, giggled. “Hey,Roan.”

“I was just telling Nox here that we look forward to meeting you formally atThanksgiving.”

Livia rocked back a little. “Formally?”

Nox rolled his eyes. “He meansproperly, all of us. We’ll talk about it over lunch. Guys, do you mind if I take araincheck?”

“Nope.”

“Notatall.”

Livia tookhim back to her apartment. He walked around the tiny kitchen/living space and nodded. “I like it, it suits you. Yeah, this is welcoming, warm. And even better, it smells like you—all soft flowers andfreshair.”

Flushing, Livia was pleased. Her and Moriko’s home was small but they both loved it, decorating it with colored scarves and art pieces and books. The couch was big and squashy and Livia pushed Nox down on it before straddling him. “So, Mr. Renaud, before I feed you, there’s a little matter of a huge ‘thank you’ to be discussed. Nox, I cannot believe your generosity. Thank you, on behalf of the university, the faculty, the students, and the music department. I’moverwhelmed.”

“I thought you might appreciate practicing on the same instrument as your heroine,” he said shyly, and Livia kissed him, crushing her lipsagainsthis.

“You’re perfect,” she whispered and sat up, unbuttoning her dress one button at a time, slowing peeling it off. She was naked underneath and Nox groaned, fixing his mouth on her nipple, sucking and teasing them both until they were unbearably sensitive. Livia opened his shirt and his fly, running her hands over his taut muscles, his flat belly. “God, I want you sobadly.”

With a growl, Nox tipped her to the floor, pressing her knees to her chest and taking her clit into his mouth. Livia gasped at the sensations he sent floodingthroughher.

“I’m supposed to be thankingyou,” she gasped and felt the vibration from his laugh rumble throughhersex.

“You are,” he said, his voice muffled. As he brought her to orgasm, she trembled and cried out his name. He moved up to kiss hermouth.

“When you call my name like that…god, Livvy.” He kissed her deeply, passionately. Livia pulled away from his kiss and made her way down his body, trailing her tongue down his chest, his belly, and then took his cock into her mouth, licking the salty pre-cum from the tip and running her tongue down the thick shaft. His fingers tangled in her hair as she worked on him, feeling his cock harden even more and quiver under hertouch.

“Jesus, Livvy…” She felt him jerk underneath her, and then his hands were under her shoulders, pulling her on top of him. He slid a condom on and she spread her legs wide for him as he thrust into her. She moaned softly as they began to move together—really, there was nothing like the way he felt inside her, his cock so thick and long, harder than steel, yet the skin silkyandsoft.

They made love slowly, taking their time, their eyes never leaving the other’s face. Livia had never felt a connection like this, had never experienced this intimacy so quickly with someone. She already knew the planes of his face, his mannerisms, the way his eyes would become more intense as they made love—as if she was the only thing he could see, or wanted to see. When they were this close, she wished she could sink into him, become one with him. Her fingernails dug into his firm, rounded buttocks now as he plunged into her again and again.I could die right now and be happy,she thought, and then pulled herself up.Really? Oh shit.She was falling in lovewithhim.

No, no, no.It was too quick, too soon.Calm down,she told herself, burying her face in his neck and kissing his throat.Just let it happen. Nox is the man for you and youknowit…

“I’m crazy about you,” he whispered suddenly and shenodded.

“And I,you, you gorgeous man.” She kissed him, feeling a surge of certainty before all other thoughts were swept away and she was coming, riding her orgasm like a wave as Nox climaxed with her. She wondered if she should tell him she was already on birth control. Something in her wanted to feel his seed deep inside her, to feel his cock inside without any barrier. She was sensible though—they weren’t yet at the stage where they could discuss that and she knew it. But god, to feel his skin against her…would that be something he would go for? Her brain was too endorphin-soaked to think straightrightthen.

Nox’s lips were against hers. “God, you’re beautiful.” He smoothed the hair away from her face. “Chocolateeyes.”

She grinned. “Ocean eyes.” He laughed andkissedher.

“So…what were we talkingabout?”

“Your incredible generosity. Nox, you didn’t need todothat.”

Nox smiled good-naturedly. “I know, and it wasn’t a ‘thank you for screwing me’ gift so don’t think that. It was time I did something for the university and now I had a focus. Was Charvipleased?”

Livia nodded. “Shewas.”

“Good, I’m glad. I hope that we canmeetsoon.”

Livia wriggled into his arms. “I did speak to her about that. Nox…she’s not ready. She told me she still has so much anger towards your father that if she saw you, saw that you looked like him, she might have some kind of left-brain-hip-check and freak outonyou.”
