“Hush. I’ll decide what to do when.” She felt his mouth next to her ear. “I’m giving you a lesson in anticipation, princess.”
“I don’t know if I can survive your lesson.” Even his warm breath tickling her skin heated her blood.
“Barely maybe, but you will.”
He lightly trailed his fingers down her side, feather touches that raised goosebumps. He explored every inch of her, sometimes with his fingers and sometimes with his tongue. How had she not known she had so many erogenous zones...her belly button, behind her knees, a spot behind her ears. Honestly, any place he touched at this point.
“Please, Noah.” He had her so far on the edge that she ached.
“Is this what you need?” He slid a finger inside her, slid it out, and then back in. While he did that, his thumb circled her clit.
She instantly climaxed.
“That’s it, baby. Ride that wave.” He gathered her in his arms and held her as she tried to find air. “How was that for tingles?” he asked when she could breathe again.
She grinned. “It’s a start.” It was freaking amazing.
“I see how it is. You’re going to be a greedy girl.”
For him, absolutely. “I think you’re right. Now, it’s my turn.” She wanted to explore every inch of him the way he had her.
“Next time. Watching you come apart was the hottest thing I’ve ever seen. I need to be in you. Now.”
“I’m good with that.” So good. As turned on as he’d made her with all the things he’d done, what she wanted most was to feel him deep inside her.
“Let’s see how many more tingles I can give you.” He grabbed a condom out of the box, and as he rolled it on, he lifted his gaze to hers. “You like watching me put this on.”
It wasn’t a question, but she answered anyway. “I don’t know why, but yes. It’s like I’m a voyeur, seeing something I’m not supposed to and can’t look away from.” He stroked himself, and she whimpered.
“You’re killing me with those noises you make, princess.”
“I promise to make more if you’ll stop torturing me and get down to business.”
He stared at her for a moment, then he grinned, then he laughed. “I think you’re good for me, Peyton. My new high is waiting to see what will come out of your mouth.”
Right then, he took his first step toward stealing her heart. She’d been in like before, but she’d never been in love. She could love this man like nobody’s business.He’ll never be yours to love.No, he wouldn’t, but she sure as heck was going to enjoy him for as long as she had him.
“Missionary style, side by side, or you riding me? Your choice since tonight is for you.”
And he just took a second step by giving her a choice. Without trying, he showed her what could be. That was good and bad. Good because now she knew. Bad because she was sure there was only one Noah.
“I’m more than familiar with missionary style, so cross that one out. Out of the other two, which gets you hotter?”
“You get me hotter.” He brushed his knuckles over her cheeks. “You really do. But I’ll answer your question. Side by side.” He rolled toward her. “Put your leg between mine.”
With her leg between the two of his, he made love to her slowly and sensually. And while he loved on her, he stared into her eyes, not letting her go. She stared back, wishing the day never came when he’d leave her.
“I never expected you,” he said.
She wasn’t sure what to make of that. “Are you saying I’m a bad thing?”
He thrust into her. “Tell me you don’t think that’s what I mean.” He thrust into her again. “I’ll never forget you. Never.”
With that, he took another step into her heart, and she freely gave him the space. He was going to hurt her without wanting to, and she was going to let him.
“Come with me, princess,” he whispered in her ear.
“Okay.” Such a mundane word for the earthquake inside her that followed his whisper. She put her hand on his chest, over his heart and the hummingbird tattoo, memorizing how it pounded because of her.
