I’m big—no complaints here—so I learned very early on how to be careful with my sexual partners. But some of my lovers in the past have been … reticent, so when Aelin’s eyes widen as they stop on my cock, I hold my breath.I’ll make it good, baby.

She bites her bottom lip and lifts her eyes back to mine. “You’re beautiful,” she whispers with a smile. And my chest expands.No, you are.

As I join her on the bed, she curls her fingers around the head of my cock, and I shut my eyes at the sharp pleasure. She torques her hands up and down.I’m not going to last.

I grab her wrists, kiss her palms, and pin her arms above her head. “Baby, you can play later.”

****

Aelin

I shiver at the heat of his skin on mine and moan into his kiss. We kiss long and wet until I have to turn my head to the side to catch my breath. His hands and mouth are everywhere, his touch feather light then heavy. I claw at his skin. I want him. I want him so much I ache in a way that feels both wonderful and torturous.

By the time his lips are on my chest, my whole body is on fire, and my lower belly spasms in need.

“Gabe.”

He grunts low in his chest, and I snap my eyes open as he lowers his head between my legs.What do I do? What…?

Wet warmth glides between my folds, and I moan as heat floods under my skin and sends me tumbling into something … somewhere I’ve never been before.

Oh, my God. Oh. God.

Gabe curls his hands around my thighs to spread me wider under his mouth and repeats the same slow pressure of his tongue, over and over again. When he penetrates me with his tongue, I claw at his neck while my body both clenches and liquefies at once.

“Oh … God … Gabe.”

“Let me hear it, baby.”

What? Hear what? Am I supposed to say somet…?

He sucks on my clit and…Oh…

I shatter in a scream with my fists clenched hard in his hair. When I come back into my body, I whimper as Gabe licks gently over my sensitive flesh. He trails his mouth on my inner thigh as he straightens up. He’s perfect, with wide shoulders, muscled arms, clearly defined abs, and these ‘arrow’ muscles on his hips that pull my gaze down.

He rolls the condom down and, he’s oh-so sexy, but the size of him is a little… There’s a lot of…

“Baby, look at me.”

I keep staring at his penis and clear my throat. He’s really…

“Aelin, look at me.”

My heart racing, I do and lose myself in the burning onyx of his eyes as he lowers himself onto his forearms on top of me. I curl my arms around his shoulders.

“Gabe…”

“Aelin,” he whispers against my lips while he pushes inside me slow. So slow.

Oh.I keep my eyes on his and tighten my arms around him.

After the initial surprise, I exhale to adjust to the burning pressure stretching me and shut my eyes to savor the incomparable feeling of his hard hot flesh inside me.

He brushes his mouth on mine. “Fuck, you feel good.”

Gabe plants himself deep and lets my body attune to his before he rolls his hips in tiny increments, and I whimper in his mouth. He watches me with a raw intensity that brings tears to my eyes, and I cling to him.

His eyes locked on mine, he thrusts languidly in and out. In and out. Until I crave more. When I moan, he plunges his tongue in my mouth, and heat unfurls in my belly. I feel every inch of him. So thick. So deep. I get wetter, hotter, hungrier for… I claw at his back.Gabe.
