“Don’t worry about a shirt. It’s not going to offend my sensibilities,” she said, her voice a bit thicker. He wondered if she was eager to see him shirtless.
Within a couple of minutes, he stared at his image as he waited for her to answer. His heart thrummed in his neck, excitement at seeing her bubbling inside him.
“Hi,” she answered once the call connected. She sat up in bed and leaned against a mound of pillows. The image was from her collarbones and up, and he wondered if she, too, slept naked.
“Hi, gorgeous,” he replied, grinning at the sight of her. Mia wet her lips with her tongue, and he chuckled. “Maybe I should have been worried about my sensibilities.”
Her face flushed. “Sorry, I… uh…” She cleared her throat and shut her eyes. “Okay, I promise to behave,” she stated when her gaze met his.
“I never asked you to behave, but I am wondering what you’re hiding with the camera zoomed in above your neck.”
A teasing grin lifted her lips. “I guess it’s only fair.”
Edward’s stomach clenched. “Tit for tat?”
Mia’s head fell back on the pillows, exposing her long graceful neck as she burst into laughter. The happy sound warmed him from the inside. The easy smile she graced him with made him grin.
She extended her arm, widening his view, and he nearly swallowed his tongue. A thin, pale-blue sheet covered her, and he could make out the hard points of her nipples easily enough—nipples he wanted to draw into his mouth.
This was not helping his erection at all, and if he weren’t careful, he would be falling into medical emergency territory. Truthfully, he didn’t care. He wanted to see more but forced himself to hold back any more comments that could push her away.
“Edward?” she whispered, her voice shaking.
He cleared his throat and smiled. “Yeah?”
“How’d your flight go?”
“As well as you’d expect,” he stated, his attention on her perky nipples.
“That’s good, I suppose.”
“Yeah… How’d the rest of your day go?” he asked, forcing each word out.
“It was long.”
He studied her closely. “Why do I get the feeling your saying more than you are?”
She raised a thin shoulder, and the sheet lowered another inch, but she didn’t fix it. His heart rate sped up, praying the sheet would fall away so he could get his first good look at her breasts. His dick twitched, and the sheet shifted. Mia’s chest rose with a deep breath as neither spoke. The edge to her areola peeked from the sheet. He was one move away from seeing what he expected to be the best-looking breasts he’d seen in his life.
“Mia?” he asked, his voice rough with his burning need for her.
Her throat bobbed as she swallowed. “Yeah,” she said through a heavy breath, and the sheet slid off her glorious peaks.
Edward groaned, wishing he were there beside her in bed. He admired the swell of her breasts, barely noticing the stretchmarks glistening on the sides as he licked his lips. On the screen, her chin rose a fraction, and a slight tremble moved her shoulders.
“God, you’re gorgeous,” he said, breaking their silence. Mia’s lips twitched at the compliment before he continued. “I’m starting to think you’re trying to seduce me…”
“What if I am?”
He grinned at her saucy reply. “Then you should know I’m ready and willing.”
Mia raised a finger to the center of her chest, letting its pad trail along her skin and around her nipple. “I don’t know what it is about you, Edward, but I’ve never wanted someone like I do you.”
Edward flipped the sheet down and wrapped his free hand around his throbbing dick. “Same here, baby. Same—” He lost his train of thought as he watched her fingers run over her nipples, plucking, twisting, and teasing the sensitive flesh. “Fuck…”
“What’s the matter?” she asked, her brow raised in challenge.
Edward released his length and flipped the camera around. “See what you do to me?”
