I buried my face in the side of her neck and licked along the creamy column. It was easy to maneuver her so that we were lying face-to-face and I growled in satisfaction against her skin, now damp from my mouth, when her leg moved so that it was on the outside of mine, giving me unfettered access to her pretty, pink center. I was kissing my way up to her ear and rubbing my hands all over her back while retaining my hold on her ass when I vaguely heard the trill of some song I didn’t recognize coming from somewhere on the floor.
I was wrapped all around Dixie, I had the tip of my dick nestled perfectly between folds that were warming up and getting slick and ready when she suddenly made a noise that indicated she was no longer half asleep. Her eyes popped open and she stared at me for a minute before her teeth sank into her bottom lip, and she put her hands on my shoulders and pushed back a little bit until I loosened my hold on her enough that she could roll away from me towards the side of the bed. She didn’t have her typical morning scowl and blurry-eyed annoyance stamped on her pretty face. It was nice to know if I woke her up with foreplay her claws stayed retracted, not that it bothered me when she sunk them in.
“That’s Wheeler. I need to answer it. Some crazy stuff went on with my sister yesterday, and he might need to talk.”
I heard her hands patting the floor where everything had landed after our acrobatics on the bed last night. I shook my head to get my thoughts together and frowned at her back even though she couldn’t see my sour expression.
“Can’t you call him back when it’s a better time for you?” I knew she went above and beyond for the people she cared about but there was no missing the way her body responded to mine. She wanted what I was about to give her, half asleep or not.
She looked at me over her shoulder with her strawberry brows pulled into a scowl. I couldn’t tell if it was directed at me or at the interruption. “It’ll just take a second. I have to be there if he wants to talk.”
I scowled right back at her but mine lacked the heat hers had because in her haste to answer the call she forgot to pull the sheet back up and her plump, rosy nipples were poking out at me looking like the most delectable little berries. That was the kind of breakfast in bed I was talking about. My frown quickly morphed into a smirk as I asked her, “What about what you want? When do you get to put your own needs first?”
Her scowl deepened as she issued a breathy greeting into the phone. Maybe she didn’t like me pointing out that she was always putting others first, but at some point the girl deserved to have hers and damn everyone else. I felt my lips pull upwards as I continued to watch her. Her cheeks heated, and she put a hand out to ineffectively ward me off as I leaned towards her. She wanted me to smile. I wasn’t quite there yet but I could grin, and I could do it wickedly and mischievously because I didn’t care that she was on the phone trying to fix someone else’s life. I cared that she wanted me and there was no reason to deny herself, or me. She deserved to come first every now and again … in fact I was going to make it my mission to make sure she came first whenever we were together for the foreseeable future and not just when we were in bed.
“No. Don’t chase after Poppy, Wheeler. That’s the worst thing you can do. If you go pounding on her door she won’t open it.” Her eyes widened as I reached for her and started to pull her back across the bed towards me. She held up a hand and shook her head frantically while I continued to grin at her. I ignored her swatting hand as I rolled her much smaller frame under mine and trapped her with my bulk.
She continued to glare at me as I caught the hand that wasn’t busy with the phone in one of mine and pinned it to the bed next to her. Her wiggling only served to make a space for me between her legs that I immediately took advantage of. I captured one of the plump, pert tips between my lips and used the tip of my tongue to circle around and around. Her whole body went still and I heard her suck in a breath and then assure the tatted-up caller on the other end of the phone that she was fine.
“I just have something caught in my throat. Why are you worried about how Poppy feels? I know Kallie can be intense, but shouldn’t you be concerned with what she came over to tell you and not how the confrontation affected a total stranger?”
I heard a masculine voice rise on the other end of the call and took advantage of the fact that Dixie moved the phone away from her ear to get my mouth on her other breast. I wanted them glistening and wet. I wanted them slippery enough that I could slide my cock between them until the tip touched her lips. That image had me growling around the stiff tip locked between my teeth. The vibration had her legs shifting against mine where I had them immobilized in a different, more restless and less combative, way.
“Uh … what? No, no, I’m listening to you and I’m not taking Kallie’s side. I just think you need to listen to her. What she has to say isn’t going to make the fact she cheated on you hurt any less, but it will go a long way towards both of you finding some kind of closure. I think my neighbor should be the least of your concerns at the moment.” Her words were coming out faster and faster. Instead of trying to wiggle away from me she was pressing her chest up into my mouth as I licked across her collarbone and stopped to suck on the hollow at the base of her neck hard enough to leave a mark. She made a pained little sound and moved her legs more aggressively against mine.
Because I wasn’t done showing her that she should put her wants and her needs before others’ occasionally and because I was enjoying the slow and sweet torture of touching her with-out having the luxury of having her hands undoing me in turn I wrapped an arm across her chest and rolled us so that her back was plastered all along my front. My throbbing dick found a very happy home nestled along the sexy crevasse of her backside. The rounded flesh pressing into my erection had me sucking in a breath that was loud enough to be heard by the person Dixie was struggling to have a conversation with.
