“More.”
He chuckled against my clit, that tongue circling but stopping just shy of where I needed him. “More of what?”
I looked down at Caden, his face between my thighs. The image had that invisible cord inside me spinning and pulling impossibly tighter. “More of you.”
His eyes flashed gold again. It was all he needed. Caden’s fingers curled again, and his lips closed around that bundle of nerves as his tongue pressed down.
Everything around me fractured in a spiral of light and color. My legs shook so hard Caden’s arm came around them, holding me up as he took and took. Wave after wave of sensation swept through me. Just as I thought I was wrung out, another crested, nearly taking me under.
Finally, Caden eased me back onto the mattress, his fingers slipping from my body. He stood, looked down at me, and licked those fingers clean.
“Can’t imagine anything sweeter.”
My eyes flared wide, and I pushed to sitting, reaching for his shirt.
Caden grinned. “Need something, Gigi?”
I yanked his button-down out of his slacks. “This. Off.”
He chuckled. “Happy to oblige.”
Caden’s fingers worked the buttons from the top, and I went from the bottom. When we met in the middle, he tore off the shirt. My hands immediately moved to his belt, unbuckling it and pulling it free.
He stepped out of my grasp, kicking off his shoes and shucking his pants and boxer briefs. And then he was standing in front of me, nothing but air between us.
I couldn’t help but drink him in. I’d imagined this moment for too long, yet it was better than anything my brain could’ve dreamed up. Lightly tanned skin pulled taut over cut muscle. My eyes tracked over defined shoulders to a chest with just a dusting of hair. Then down to ridges of abdominals and a V of muscle I wanted to trace with my tongue.
Caden’s cock jerked as I stared at it. He growled. “You’re gonna make me come like a teenager.”
My gaze jumped to his face as he stalked toward me. He bent, his fingers latching onto my sports bra. “Need to feel all of you.”
Caden pulled the bra over my head, sending it flying. And then he was pushing me back to the bed, covering my body with his. “Shit. Condom.”
My fingers dug into his shoulders. “I’m on the pill.”
He stilled, his eyes searching mine. “I had a checkup right before I came back, and I haven’t been with anyone since. You’re sure?”
I nodded. I didn’t want anything between us. I had no idea what this meant for Caden and me, but if I only had this stolen moment with him, this one glimmer of everything, I wanted to experience it all. “I’m sure.”
Caden’s eyes blazed as his hand cupped my cheek, stroking along my jaw. “Gigi…”
My legs wrapped around him, and he bumped against my entrance. Everything in me cried out for him. For everything he could possibly give me.
Caden slid inside on one long glide. My mouth fell open on a silent gasp. I’d never felt fuller—and in the best way. It was just shy of pain, yet somehow perfect.
I held on to Caden as I adjusted to his size, his feel, to all of him.
“Gigi,” he whispered again.
“More.”
I didn’t have to tell Caden twice. He began moving, first in shallow, testing thrusts and then deeper. My hips rose to meet him. Something about the two of us coming together was completely unique—a path that would only ever be ours.
Our bodies spoke to each other in a secret language no one else would ever understand. With hands and mouths and so much more.
My back arched as Caden thrust deeper. My walls trembled. “Caden…”
I wasn’t sure what I was asking for or if I simply needed to call his name, to tell myself this was real.
