“You can have me, but why don’t we wait until you aren’t hurting?”
He sighed jaggedly against the skin he’d left damp and aroused. “I’ve spent my entire life hurting. Hearing you say I can have you, that you are mine, is the first time that hurt has stopped. You have no idea the battles I’ve fought to be here waiting for you to be ready for me, Keelyn. The only thing that would keep me from you now is the end.”
How was a girl supposed to say no to that?
A wry smile twisted my lips as I felt his cock stretch and twitch under the fabric of the towel keeping his erection from me.
“We just have to take it easy, okay?” I was forced to take a step back as he fluidly got to his feet in front of me, pushing my borrowed robe the rest of the way off of me as he went. His mouth hit mine and desire hit me like a punch in the gut, and his hands wrapped around my waist and pulled me flush against him so I could feel every hard, needy line of his body calling to mine.
“When has anything between us ever been easy?”
He had a point, but that didn’t stop me from allowing him to back me into his bedroom and right toward the big bed right in the center of it.
Chapter 10
Nassir
My head felt like it was going to blow apart. The handful of Tylenol I had swallowed down before my shower wasn’t doing anything to stop the throb and ache that was beating as steady as a drum behind my eyes and in my ears. The fact that my heart was thundering and my dick was so hard it hurt because I had a very naked Keelyn in front of me wasn’t helping my comfort level at all. I forced myself to focus on all that soft skin, on those high and pert breasts with their perfectly pink nipples, on those long legs, toned and sleek from dancing, on that wild shock of red hair, and on the way her gray eyes softened and darkened like a storm cloud as she looked down at me.
I knew if she saw or sensed any of the discomfort that I was forcing back behind the years of desire I had for her, she would put a stop to all the things I wanted to do to her, and even if that was probably the smartest thing to do, it wasn’t the least painful option. I had wanted her to be mine from the start. Now that she was here, now that she had surrendered, I couldn’t waste any more time. Even if I felt a little like I was going to pass out if I moved too fast or turned my head the wrong way.
The back of her knees hit the bed and I kept moving until she was flat on her back and I could crawl up over her. I wanted to dominate. I wanted to own. I wanted to possess. But when I bent my head to claim that sassy mouth, the outside of my vision went fuzzy and something that felt like a hot poker sliced through my head. I groaned before I could make contact with her sweet lips and had to roll off her and onto my back in order to make the room stop spinning.
One of her tiny hands reached out and landed on my chest right over where my heart was trying to lunge out of my chest and eat her alive with all the hunger for her that had been gnashing inside of it for years.
“I told you I’m not going anywhere.” She sounded so sure and so calm, while I felt like a wildfire of pain and desire was blazing uncontrollably inside of me.
Damn straight she wasn’t going anywhere, and there was no way in hell a little headache and some cuts and bruises were going to stop me from finally getting what I always wanted from her. Everything.
On my back, the world seemed less fuzzy and some of the pressure inside my skull felt like it had let up. I grabbed her wrist and tugged on her until she got up onto her knees and straddled my supine body. I still had a towel wrapped around my hips, but it was doing little to keep my dick contained. The other part of me that had been longing for this woman for years was just as eager and ready to have its shot at her as my pounding heart was. Probably more so, if the way it pointed straight up like it was stretching up just to brush along her naked backside was any indication.
I glided my hand up over the curve of her ribs. I rubbed my palm over the surface of her full breasts and stopped to work her nipples into stiff little peaks. She whimpered a little and I reached up to grab her around the back of her neck so I could pull her down to me. Her lips touched mine lightly, and thankfully the room stayed put. My head still screamed at me and my shoulder wasn’t happy with all the tugging and pulling, but her tongue darted between my lips and touched my own and any complaint I may have had drowned under the feel of her. Now that I could touch back, it felt like I didn’t have enough hands to put on all the places I wanted to touch her.
I wanted to touch her cheek and wrap my fingers in her crazy red hair. I wanted to play with her breasts, test the weight of each of them, and make her nipples pucker and beg for me. I wanted to stroke the inside of her thigh and explore that sexy curve that led to the places on her body I most wanted at. I wanted to put my hands right against her wet center and pet her, tease her, fondle her, until she screamed my name and came all across my fingers like she had forced me to do in my office. It was like I had been given everything I ever asked for at one time and my head was whirling trying to figure out how to get ahold of all of that bounty at once.
“You kiss better than most men fuck.” Her voice was husky and held a note of humor in it. I might not have been at my best but she was still turned on. I could feel where she was damp and hot between her legs where she was perched across my tight abdomen, and decided that while touching was nice, tasting would be even better. I kissed her again, this time with a bite, and moved my hands to the curve of her hips so that I could start moving her up my body.
She pulled away with wide eyes and didn’t argue as I helped her scoot farther up the bed and closer to my face.
“I do everything better.” I wasn’t bragging. It was the simple truth. With her, there could never be anything better because this thing between us was the best there would ever be.
When she got her knees up by my head and had herself braced over my face, I turned and kissed her on the inside of her thigh. She flushed a pretty pink and I could see that her body was already getting slick and ready. Her blush traveled even into her most private places and it made me grin against her soft skin. I felt her thighs quiver and she looked down at me with a mixture of trepidation and anticipation. I grinned up at her as I curled my hands around her legs. “There is no way I can get at you the way I want without blacking out, so you’re going to have to bring the goods to me.” I was going to bury my face between her legs until we were both stupid with lust.
He sighed jaggedly against the skin he’d left damp and aroused. “I’ve spent my entire life hurting. Hearing you say I can have you, that you are mine, is the first time that hurt has stopped. You have no idea the battles I’ve fought to be here waiting for you to be ready for me, Keelyn. The only thing that would keep me from you now is the end.”
