“Mmm? What do youwant?”
About her. About her. About her. It willalwaysbe abouther.
“Whatever youwant.”
Her fingers still moving nimbly between her legs, she shook her head. “That wasn’t what you were going tosay.”
The words and desires and needs whirled inside him, building and building. What was he supposed to say, that he wanted to put his mouth on her and tongue her until she screamed? That he wanted to turn her over and drive into her from behind? That he wanted to shove her up against a wall and fuck her until neither of them could standupright?
A sly smile crossed her beautiful face. “Well, if you won’t tell me, then I’ll have to do something about this myself.” She pushed off the tub’s edge and waded toward the waterfall. Eyes narrowed, she put her hand under the stream of water and glanced around. She crooked a finger at him. “Looks like I need you afterall.”
“You have me.” For anything that brought herpleasure.
“Stand right here and put your hands under my back.” With that, she reclined in a float position and hooked her legs over the edge of the tub. Which positioned her clitoris directly under the waterflow.
Oh, fuck.Made perfect sensenow.
She moaned her approval at having the water pound down on her. And all he could do was stand here holding her and watch a faucet do all the work. Within seconds, Tessa’s hips were working, doing whatever necessary for the water to flow over the rightspot.
When she came, it was on a long, lusty groan that emerged from somewhere deep inside her. After, she went limp in his hold, but Jonah was feeling anything but satisfied and mellow. In fact, the condom he’d put on felt as if it was about to cut off circulation to hisdick.
He tugged her back toward the side of the tub. She was as malleable as a rag doll when he settled on a built-in seat and pulled her into his lap so they were chest tobreasts.
“That’s the way—uh-huh, uh-huh—I like it,” she sang softly, making him laugh. She melted against him, wrapping her arms around his shoulders, spreading her knees to straddle him and pressing her mouth tohis.
Her kiss kicked what little control he had to the curb. She was using her tongue aggressively, making it clear she wanted him to follow herlead.
Jaw tight, he grasped her hips and lifted her until his cock was snug against the entrance to her body. “Are yousure?”
She released his mouth and looked—really looked—into his eyes. “I want you, Jonah. I want you insideme.”
His hips surged up and he pushed into her silky heat. Ah, Jesus. It was better than he remembered. She was tight and so fucking hot. Still, he made himself keep control, using short, shallowthrusts.
Her smile was lazy and relaxed. Not exactly the reaction he was looking for. “Tessa!”
“Hmm?”
The last thing he wanted to do was ask if it was good for her. Obviously, he wasn’t rocking her world the way a stupid waterfall could. “I want you to feelgood.”
“Ido.”
“I want you to lose your mind, it feels sogood.”
“Yousure?”
Nah, he was just fucking around. “Yes,dammit!”
To his supreme disappointment, she pushed up from his lap, separating their bodies. She held out her hand to him. “You need to understand that I’m not fragile. Comehere.”
She led him to the plush rug in front of the full-length mirror. Okay, fine, they could do this again. But she shocked the shit out of him when she dropped down on all fours, and lowered her head. A submissive position no man couldmisinterpret.
When he didn’t follow, she glanced up at him. “I’m choosing, Jonah. And I chooseyou.”
A chunk of cement he’d been carrying around in his chest loosened. She trusted him. Really trusted him. And that was a gift he would kill himself before hesquandered.
He knelt behind her, ran a hand down her back as if he were touching a religious object. She turned her head to meet his gaze in the mirror, and in that moment, with hot honest need and desire in her eyes, he waslost.
She arched her back and opened for him. And this time, when Jonah slid inside her, her expression wasn’t relaxed. It was full of stunnedpleasure.
Her heat surrounded his cock, tightened his belly, and spread up his chest. The feeling traveled to his head and scorched hisbrain.
With each stroke, he pushed a little harder, went a little deeper. Until Tessa was on her elbows, her cheek against the rug. Their eye contact never broke until her arms splayed out to her sides and her body began to ripple aroundhis.
He drew back, almost out of her body, then thrust forward and held. The orgasm ripped through him, squeezing his balls and stealing his breath, while she continued to come aroundhim.
With the force of it all, Jonah’s body went into pleasure shock. But when Tessa smiled at him, that was when his world exploded andreassembled.
