My lips stopped his words. I kissed him softly this time. “I’m pretty sure I trust you too much. You see me as I am Harper. And now I want you to take me as that too.”

“You’re playing dirty,” he croaked breath coming out in a long huff.

“Exactly what you told me to do,” I said. “I’ve always been good at following directions.”

He chuckled. “You don’t fight fair at all.”

I felt my own mouth quirk. I could tell he was giving in. “Then just hurry up and give me what I want already.”

“Alta this is not how I planned this for us.” My heart soared just at the thought that he had plans for us, even though I would like nothing more than to mess them up.

“You’re one of the few people who knows how selfish I can get, Harp,” I admitted. “Right now, I want to be selfish with you. I want you to treat me like only you can. Like the girl that onlyyousee. I know you know what I’m saying. Please, Harper?”

Warm brown eyes touched me with something other than the heated gaze he’d been giving me all night. As he watched me, I felt that chasm in my chest more pronounced than before, yet instead of feeling empty and wrong, it felt like it was being filled. Filled up with him.

And it felt like my breath was being stolen away with my heartbeat as the next words he spoke sounded a lot like, “Lay back, sweetheart.”

Chapter Nineteen

AUGUSTUS

This was without contention the best feeling.

I’m not going to lie, at first I thought she was crazy or at least she was using me as an avenue to express her newfound penchant for craziness. Suggesting that I take her bare in the middle of a Halloween attraction just didn’t seem like Alta.

But neither had her leading me there in the first place, and yet, I wasn’t able to resist tasting her sweet heat right then and there. So what was really stopping me from giving into her request? Probably the fear that this was all working too well. That now that I’d convinced her to use me, it was all she’d ever see me as good for.

I should have known better.

Treat me like only you can… Like the girl that only you see.

I don’t think they were just lines, and even if they were, I don't think she could have come up with them without having once felt them. And if there was one thing I understood, it was the singular feeling that this woman’s words made me feel.

Wanted.

And after fighting for this feeling, I was addicted to the smallest portions of it coming from her. So if she felt anything like me, and I could be the one to give her what she craved, I’d do it. That’s why I’d started this whole thing in the first place, right?

“Lay back, sweetheart.” I heard myself say, my unconscious mind making the decision for me.

Alta did what I asked, opening herself up to me on display as she sprawled under me.

“Are we alone here?” I asked. She gave a mix of a nod and shrug that I took to mean‘mostly’. That was good enough for me. My hands fingered the edge of her red shorts. “So I can take these off?”

“Yes, please.”

Gently, I worked the small scrap of material down her legs and off her body. Moving over her, I leaned my body into hers as my mouth caught onto her sweet lips in a soft kiss.

Her moans were my new favorite flavor, and she gifted them to me in droves, her body wasting no time in grinding herself against me like a cat in heat. She was so ready for me, and I had hardly touched her since she came all over my tongue over ten minutes ago.

I pushed my pants down enough to let myself free and then I scooped a hand underneath her back, lifting her so she was situated further onto the hay,fucking hay, and I had room to kneel above her.

Erection free, I fisted it in my hand, giving it a long hard tug as I fell in line with her opening. Pushing forward, I rubbed the head up and down against her slowly, shuddering at the first feeling of her warmth slicking onto my length. Her legs trembledaround me as the head slipped over the most sensitive part of her. And she gave off little kitten mewls when I slipped inside just a bit.

“Please, Harper. Just do it already.”

“Are you always so polite when you fuck, Alta?” I asked.

“I think so?” she answered a little incoherently as she moaned, my hips and her hips rolling at the same time causing me to push a little deeper. “Please?”
