My jaw dropped. “That’s the most disgustingway I’ve ever been propositioned for sex.”
She shrugged. “It wasyourmetaphor.I have over a hundred years of sexual experience under my belt, notto mention my vampire tongue magic you were such a big fan ofbefore. What’s the downside?”
My brain was having problems coming up withthe downside. Leandra took one step toward me, then another. Inspite of myself, my breathing changed, became shallower. Her handswere on my shoulders but I didn’t remember how they’d gotten there.“You can’t use your tongue right away,” I said hoarsely. “I lostall reason last time you did. And don’t drink my blood.”
Her breath was hot on my neck when sheanswered. “So that’s a ‘yes’?”
I raised my line of sight from hercollarbones to her face. Her lips were just barely parted, eyesscanning me astutely for my reaction. She looked beautiful. Shelooked…hungry.
And I nodded at her.
In the next second, Leandra had me upagainst the wall. She angled her mouth against mine and her lipswere plump, soft, warm. There was an unzipping sound as she undidthe front of her shirt, and then a gentle tugging at the base of myown top, and then we were skin-to-skin, her bare breasts pressedagainst me. The kiss grew frantic, frenzied. I brushed my tongueagainst the inside of her lips and felt a spark that traveled allthe way down.
Leandra broke off, breathing heavily. Herlips were dark and swollen. She peeled off her pants and reachedfor mine as I stood there still as a statue, taking in the sight ofher creamy thighs, the parts of her that curved elegantly.
We were both completely undressed. She drankme in with her eyes the way I’d just done to her. And then I wasback against the wall, and her hands lifted my thighs up aroundher, ankles hooking behind her back, and we were fully entangled.There were mouths on necks, fingers lost in hair, andoh my Godshe was rubbing against me, and I was going to—
“Leandra,” I gasped. “Leandra—“
“What?” she breathed back, brushing her lipsagainst my neck.
“I need…can you…?” I was past the point ofcognitive thought. Her warm torso continued to press against me,sparking goosebumps along my skin.
“Say it,” she said.
“I want you,” I murmured into her hair.
“What do you want from me?”
Anything. Everything. Nothing I wasn’t tooembarrassed to say.
“What do you want from me?” sherepeated.
“Go down on me,” I said finally, just barelylouder than a breath.
With strong arms, she lifted me up anddeposited me in the armchair she’d been reading from earlier.Leandra knelt in front of it, her eyes watching my every move. “So.You want me to use that tongue now, huh?” she asked, eyes sparklingwith mischief.
“Stop teasing me,” I warned.
She pushed her arms under my thighs, liftingme closer to her. “I just can’t help myself,” she said, completelyserious.
Her tongue just barely grazed me. I was sowet that it slid right off. I trembled with wanting.
Leandra pressed herself closer to me andlicked me again, still watching my face. I saw stars, galaxies. Hereyes closed and her hands rested on the mound of my stomach, andher mouth settled on me and didn’t let me go. I saw the Milky Way,the universe, God. Leandra made love to me with her mouth until Ishuddered with orgasm after orgasm like waves crashing on a shore,until I finally pushed her away gently, tingling everywhere,completely spent.
Leandra wiped her mouth with the back of herhand, laughing at my dazed expression. She rose and bent over thearmchair, tucking her knees on either side of me. I kissed a longthigh, holding her closer. Gingerly, she guided my hand between herlegs, palm facing upward.
I traced a finger down her tentatively. Shewas velvety soft and wet, so wet. There was a sharp intake of airas my hands found her clit. Leandra shifted, pressing one of herbreasts into my mouth, and I circled her nipple with my tongue. Sheshook, moaned, tugged my hair as she climaxed.
Leandra leaned back and sat on my thighs,freeing my mouth and my sticky hands. We were both drenched insweat, our hair mussed. Her eyelids were only half-open as shebreathed heavily. “See?” she said between labored breaths. “Wecould do that for eternity.”
I brushed the hair out of my face with myfingers. “It’s mostly the vampire part that doesn’t appeal tome.”
Leandra smiled. She cupped the back of myneck with one hand and kissed me just once, incredibly soft. “Yourloss,” she said. “Let’s go take a shower.”
