Her mouth went dry as he knelt between her thighs. She arched in anticipation, so when he didn’t move to cover her, she flinched. Why was hestopping?
She got the answer a second later when he pushed back onto his belly. He kissed the inside of her thigh, leaving her to tremble in the wake ofhislips.
“You smell so good,” he murmured. “I want totasteyou.”
“Okay.”
She chided herself for the lamest answer ever. But what else could she say? The husky tinge of lust in his voice rolled through her like thunder. She’d never had a man talk to her like that before, especially not in bed. The sudden rush of feminine power filled her with a boldness she wasn’t accustomed tohaving.
As he brushed his lips closer to her sex, she lifted to meet him. With a grown, he wrapped his fingers around her hips and pressed her into the bed. Long, lavish swirls of his tongue coaxed her closer to the breaking point. She clutched the sheets in her hands and writhedagainsthim.
The dull, aching throb in her pussy built until her breaths came out in short bursts. Mindless pleasure coiled from somewhere deep inside her. This was more than just sex. He worshiped her with his lips andtongue.
She lay sprawled across the bed. Her thighs trembled as the hard buds of her nipples ached to be touched. As if he’d read her mind, he reached up to rub the thick pad of his thumboverthem.
Everything exploded. She gasped as tight, clenching waves of orgasmic ecstasy ripped through her body. She twisted to one side and screamed as she shook from the force of herorgasm.
He crawled up to cover her with his rugged body. She wrapped her legs around his hips and drew him in, taking every inch of his rigid cock. Her mouth dropped open. God, he was huge. Even bigger than the outline of his jeans hadsuggested.
Each thrust pushed the breath from her body. Each pull left her wanting more. And when he angled his hips in just the right motion, she exploded around him. She clung to him as if her life depended on it. He growled in response, driving into her with animalisticpassion.
When she raked her nails down his back, he roared. She froze. The sound chilled her to the core. It was almostinhuman.
“Shh,” he whispered before kissing awayherfear.
She relaxed. With all the blood rushing through her ears, she’d probably just misinterpreted the strangesound.
As he continued to plunge into her, sweat beaded on his body. Her hands slipped down to grab his butt. She pulled him in, taking everything he had to give until he pushed her overtheedge.
A series of seismic waves rippled throughout her body. She pulsed around him, devoid of thought, lost in total abandon until he surged forward. His sharp cry pierced the air. As his hips pummeled her with relentless thrusts, she tumbled with him into a state of totalecstasy.
Silky heat filled her. She’d never been so completely satisfied. Every inch of her body went limp. She tried to raise her hands to caress his back but couldn’t. She could only lie there, basking in the glow of hisadoration.
He spread soft kisses over her mouth before easing off to lie beside her. As he drew her into the crook of his arm, she sighed and placed her hand on his chest. At first, his heart beat wildly. But after a few minutes, it slowed to anormalpace.
“Thank you,” shewhispered.
“For what?” came his sleepyreply.
“For making me feel aliveagain.”
“Mine,” hemuttered.
He cradled her against him in a possessive move that would have frightened her had it been anyone else. But she had nothing to fear. Drew wouldn’t hurt her. She knew it in the depths of her soul. He was a good, honest man with nothing to hide…and she was completely unworthyofhim.
Chapter7
Drew openedone eye and squinted at the rising sun. Light filtered in through the window, casting the bed in a soft glow. His arm had gone numb but he didn’t care. A beautiful woman was worth a little bitofpain.
He carefully extracted his arm and flexed his hand several times. Pins and needles prickled along his skin as blood rushed in. He smiled. He’d shared one hell of a night with her. His bear chuffed in agreement. For the first time in a while, peace flowed through him. He hadn’t realized how much he’d missed being this close to another person. It wasn’t all physical either. There was something about her, something that made him want to bearoundher.
