Page 54 of Wild Rush Of Love
By the time her quivering legs gave way, he’d stroked her to an orgasm that rolled over her as soft as a summer breeze.
She gasped when he picked her up. Carefully, he laid her on the bed and kissed her, everything he felt for her bleeding into the soft caress of his mouth on hers. Hooded lids hung over dazed eyes and he could see her desire for him, sweet and lush, overflowing in gentle waves.
Unable to wait any longer to be inside her, Rush shucked his clothes and joined her on the bed, making himself at home between her legs.
Her arms came up to wrap around his neck, tugging him down to her. “Love me, Rush.”
Their mouths fused as he joined their bodies in one thrust. He swallowed her gasp, his tongue plunging between her parted lips in the same steady rhythm as his cock surging into her slick heat.
He kept his eyes open, kept them on hers, as he loved her with everything he was. He might not be able to say the words but he could show her with his body, open his soul through his eyes.
Rush gave himself completely, knowing she could reject him. He understood her enough to know he had to lay himself bare if he wanted her to trust him with her heart.
Biting his tongue to keep from saying the words desperate to be said, he picked up the pace and tilted his hips. She panted and shuddered, her pussy tightening around him as he drove them both toward the peak.
Her climax took them both. It rose up and burst over her, dragging him under the wave of bliss with her. And when he’d spent the last of his seed inside her, he couldn’t stop himself from hoping her birth control failed.
He knew it was the wrong thing to want, a manipulative way to forge a permanent connection. Except the thought of Reena carrying his child didn’t feel wrong—being with her forever felt right.
More right than anything else in his life ever had.
Chapter Thirty-One
“Second weekin a row I’ve found you with that frowning face. What’s on your mind now?” Caitlyn squeezed into the booth opposite her.
“Jeez. What is this? Caitlyn’s confession corner?” Reena laughed but the sound came out rough, edged with hysteria.
“Nothing better than confessing over a shot of Jameson,” Caitlyn said as Ailis put a bottle and two shot glasses on the table between them. “Thanks, Ailis.”
They stayed quiet while Caitlyn poured and they downed the amber liquid. Reena winced. God, that burned.
Refilling their glasses, her friend waited her out. She’d always been able to do that. Get Reena to spill her secrets just by sitting quietly, ready to listen to whatever crisis had come into Reena’s life.
Needing the courage, she knocked back the second shot and shuddered through the burn, settling when the warmth hit her belly. “He asked me to go with him.”
“Rush?”
“Yeah.” She nodded. “I said no.”
“Why the hell would you do that? You’re in love with the guy.”
Reena’s gaze snapped up, collided with the blue eyes of the woman who had been her lifeline through so much in spite of their age gap. In spite of the fact she’d started out as Reena’s babysitter, a teenager taking care of a scared, orphaned little girl barely surviving the loss of her parents.
She trusted Caitlyn. More than she trusted herself, it seemed.
Reena thought she loved him. But having never had sex, she’d wondered if those emotions could be put down to the starry-eyed confusion of a virgin giving her heart to the guy who popped her cherry.
Heat flashed through her. God, had he popped it. He’d blown that thing apart with a load of C-4. It had been the single most spectacular thing to ever happen to her. Until he’d done it again and again and again—
“I’m going to assume that flushed look on your face means you’ve sunk deep into some super-hot memories of how much ‘love’ went on between the two of you.”
Reena glanced at the smirk on Caitlyn’s mouth and more heat burned her cheeks. “Sorry.”
“Oh, no. Don’t be sorry.Neverbe sorry about amazing sex.”
“How do you know it was amazing?”
“Other than the flushed face, we’ve got dilated pupils, short breaths, and a pair of extra-perky boobs.” Caitlyn laughed when Reena crossed her arms over said perky.
