When You Dare
Page 88
“Ah…sure.”
Bemused by Dare’s blasé attitude over this, Molly held her ground…but not for long. He was right; she did need to get dressed.
To her sister, she said firmly, “I will be right back.”
Natalie dithered. “I, ah, could go with you.”
“Not this time.” Dare gave her a barely conciliatory smile as he started them both across the floor. “We weren’t expecting you, and right now Molly and I have a few things to work out. I won’t keep her long.”
He left no room for argument, so Natalie directed a stern look on him before saying to Molly, “I’ll be right here if you need me for anything.”
Molly blinked at her. Natalie still thought that Dare might hurt her? He never would, but if he did, Natalie sure wouldn’t be able to stop him.
Her sister meant well, and usually she was the most stubborn person Molly knew. But when it came to Dare, Natalie was well out of her league.
Over her shoulder, Molly said back to her sister, “Thanks, but I’ll be fine, I promise.”
Without regard to her sister’s worry, Dare propelled her along into the bedroom. It was very rude, and didn’t do much to put Natalie at ease. Stepping away from him, she went through the door on her own steam.
He shut it behind her, and Molly turned to demand an explanation.
Before she got a single word out, Dare’s mouth covered hers.
Oh… Well, okay, then. Molly subsided and just went with the kiss.
As the tip of Dare’s tongue prodded over the seam of her lips, her heart started thumping and her body hummed to life all over again. She opened for him to accept his deeper kiss.
Dare slanted his head for a better fit, and Molly wanted to melt on the spot.
It might only have been hours ago that he made love with her, but she felt fresh desire as an acute need.
Dare turned with her to brace her back against the door. He tilted in his hips, pressing the solid rise of his erection against her belly.
Every nerve ending buzzed to life until she clung to him, her sister temporarily forgotten.
She didn’t realize that the blanket was gone until Dare stepped back to look at her. He held each corner of the blanket in his hands at either side of her shoulders. His gaze moved from her mouth to her br**sts, and then slowly down her body.
His jaw worked.
“This is awkward,” Molly said. She’d never been put on display like this before.
He shook his head. “Damn, but I need you again.” He put damp, openmouthed kisses on her throat, her shoulder, and then he stepped away.
Molly couldn’t believe he left her there, naked, while he still had his pants on. Breathing hard, feeling exposed, she considered making a grab for the blanket…but Dare stood on it.
His gaze went all over her like a hot stroke before stopping at the juncture of her legs. “You look good enough to eat.” His gaze met hers. “Again.”
“I…ah…” Molly shifted. Such outrageous sexual compliments were very new to her, and she had no idea how to respond. Feeling lame, she whispered, “Thank you.”
Dare ran his hands lightly from her shoulders over her br**sts, letting his palms drag over her now-puckered ni**les. He lingered there just a second before sliding them down to her hips. He gave a low growl. “Turn around.”
Voice going high and thin, Molly said, “What?”
Using his hold on her, Dare directed her around until she had her back to him.
Molly tried to control her breathing, but it wasn’t easy. This was both embarrassing and highly erotic.
“God, baby, I do love this ass.” With both hands, he cupped her cheeks, then stepped up close again to kiss the sensitive spot where her throat met her shoulder.
His attraction to her posterior thrilled her. “We can’t… My sister is out there….”
“I know.” He took her wrists and lifted her arms above her head, and then pressed her palms flat to the door. “Just let me touch you for a minute.”
Putting one foot between hers, he nudged her legs open. Molly widened her stance, all the while struggling with the conflict of need and her natural modesty.
Slipping his hands around to the front of her, then up to her br**sts, he touched her. With her arms raised, her feet braced apart, everything he did seemed somehow more salacious.
Lifting each breast, Dare caressed her before teasing both ni**les with his thumbs.
It was too much. “Dare…”
He closed his fingertips around her, lightly pinching, tugging insistently.
Molly dropped her head back as the sensation went straight from her br**sts to her womb. She bit her lip to keep from moaning aloud, but the deep, throaty sound escaped anyway.
Dare hugged her, warm and soft, and then he stepped back. Slowly, Molly turned around to face him again—and what she saw astounded her.
Muscles clenched, nostrils flared and eyes burning, Dare watched her with such obvious yearning that her embarrassment disappeared. Never had she imagined him so out of control.
As he readjusted himself, his hands shook. He took another step away from her. Voice as rough as gravel, he said, “You’d better get dressed before I lose it.”
Feeling a little powerful in this new situation, Molly smiled. “Let’s talk about money first.”
His jaw hardened. “Push me, and we’ll be talking about it on the bed, with me inside you and to hell with what your sister hears.”
What a spoilsport. For most men that might have been a bluff, but she had a feeling Dare said what he meant, always. She’d already proven that she wouldn’t stop him if he went that route, so maybe it’d be better if she didn’t press her luck.
