My self-control disintegrates. I grab Lily and spin, pressing her back against the door, my hands on the soft skin of her waist. She gasps, arching into me.

“All I want is to mark this perfect skin of yours so everyone knows you belong to me,” I growl. “I want to spank your ass until it’s red, and every time you sit down, you whisper my name.”

“You’re already on my mind constantly, Colt.”

“And all I think about is how you’d sound when I touch you, taste you, penetrate you, and claim every inch of you.”

She reaches up slowly, tracing the line of my chest. “So do it.”

My body goes tight. I’mthisclose to pouncing when I drop my eyes and shake my head. “Christ, Lily. Wecan’t.”

“Oh, come on,” she replies, sounding like a cat meowing. “Doesn’t that make it even hotter?”

Lightning flashes again, illuminating her face, and what I see there nearly breaks me down completely. Lust, but also trust. Complete trust in me, like she’d never doubt that I’d catch her if she let herself fall.

I trace her chin with my thumb, and she lets her lips part, showing me the fruity flesh of her tongue. Never in my life have I wanted anything this bad. “If I kiss you, Lily, our lives will change forever.”

She shrugs. “They already have…haven’t they?”

She’s right. From the moment she stepped out of her mother’s car, I knew my world would never be the same. Fighting it now is just delaying the inevitable.

But I’m not ready to give in. Not yet.

It takes a superhuman effort, but somehow, I manage to step back and put space between us. Lily makes a moan in protest and reaches out for me, but I move out of the way. “No, not like this. Not when you’re afraid of the storm, looking to me for comfort.”

“Colt—”

“When I finally kiss you, it’s going to be becauseyou want it.Not because you’re looking to me for shelter.”

“But I do want it!”

I shake my head. “Tomorrow. When the sun’s out, if you can think clearly, if you truly want this, then we’ll talk.”

I take the flashlight I dropped on the floor earlier and place it in her hands.

“Colt…”

But I’m already at the door, my hand on the knob, my eyes away from her half-naked body. If I stay a moment longer, I won’t be able to leave. “And put a shirt on, Lily, goddamn it.”

Before she can respond, I’m out into the hallway and closing her door behind me. Through the door, I can hear her moving around, hopefully getting dressed. That won’t do much, though, to get the image of her naked breasts out of my mind tonight.

Back in my room, I strip out of my soaked briefs and climb into bed, staring up at the ceiling as the storm continues to rage outside. I’m wrapped so tight that every nerve ending inside is on fire, desperately aching for what’s just across the hall.

Twenty feet, that’s all. Twenty feet to paradise and damnation, all wrapped up in one perfect package.

She’sright there, just across the hall, half-naked or naked. All I have to do is rush over there and take her. Have her. Make her mine. But my God, what would that do to our family? How would I ever explain that to Dad? To Katherine?

“Oh, by the way, guys. Yeah, me and Lily? We’re…you know…together now.”

Right, that would go over just great.

I can’t help but wonder, though,Is she that innocent?The thought of her with other men sends a spike of jealousy through me that physically hurts. I’ve never felt this kind of rage in my life. I’m going wild. Normally, I couldn’t care less about women. Sure, I’ll have a casual fling here and there, but I never let myself get tied down. But for Lily? Damn, I’d swear my life to her.

My cock is like a spear between my legs, preventing me from lying on my stomach. There’s nothing I want more now than to storm into Lily’s bedroom, snatch that towel off her waist, bend her over, and pump my hard-on in her.

I can’t even imagine the sound she’d make when I spread her open. If she truly is a virgin, I bet she’d gasp. It would be acombination of that slight hint of pain as I popped her cherry, mixed with the delight of overwhelming pleasure as I began to thrust.

God, just the thought of what her beautiful unclaimed body would look like as I pounded her from behind has pre-cum spilling from my dick. I use it to lube up my erection and begin stroking. In seconds, I’m coming all over my lower abs, picturing my stepsister’s tits rocking back and forth as I fuck her.
