Ellie loved the feel of him in her mouth, and she lightly fondled his balls. He slid his fingers into her hair and clenched the silky strands. The pull against her scalp felt erotic as she went down on him.
Tucker’s rumbling growl was her only warning that he intended to take control. He grasped her upper arms and dragged her up his body and held her close to him.
She smiled, braced her hands on his chest, and pushed herself up so that she was straddling him. “You said I could be on top.”
The sexy curve of his lips made her quiver inside. “The lady can be in charge.” He grasped her hips. “One thing, first.” He shifted her so that she was high enough on his chest that he could pull her down and suck her nipples.
She cried out from the pleasure and squirmed on him. Every suck and pull was like a tether to her core. She didn’t want him to stop, but she wanted him inside even more.
Her breathing became more ragged. “I need you inside me, Tucker. Really, truly, now.”
He allowed her to shimmy down but held her a moment as he grasped a condom from the bedside table and in moments had sheathed himself with it.
She rose above his cock and sank down its length. Her eyes widened, and she gasped as she felt the hard thickness of him deep inside her. His gaze was dark and smoky as she began riding him.
He gripped her hips as she moaned with her movements. She cupped her breasts and played with her nipples as she rode him. She wanted to climax so badly her mind screamed with it, but at the same time, she didn’t want it to end too quickly.
Both her and his skin were damp with perspiration as he rose to meet her, thrusting into her even more deeply.
When she couldn’t take it any longer, when she had to climax or she would lose her mind, she allowed herself to topple over the precipice.
“Tucker,” she cried, then bit her lip to keep from screaming.
He continued thrusting even as she couldn’t move anymore, drawing out her orgasm. Then he gave a hoarse shout, restraining his voice like she had.
She collapsed against his chest, her harsh breathing matching his. His flesh was warm against hers. He took her right hand and linked it with his left one. With his other hand, he stroked damp hair from her forehead.
“You’re so beautiful.” He skimmed her flushed face with his fingertips. “Everything about you is amazing and special.”
She sighed and snuggled against him. “I think you’re pretty special, too.”
He rolled her onto her side, catching her off guard, and faced her. Their gazes met and held, and they drank in one another. She smiled then cuddled up to him, feeling secure and cared for as he brought her into his arms.
She drifted to sleep, the happiest she had felt in a very long time.

Ellie adjusted her name badge, which had been dropped off with Tucker’s at her townhouse yesterday. Her heels clicked on the floor, and she self-consciously brushed down her knee-length royal-blue dress as Tucker held the door open for her, into the Phoenix Convention Center. Her belly fluttered from nerves as he took her hand. She’d never done anything like this, and she found the newness of it exciting.
They paused to have their badges checked before continuing. It was before general attendees would be let in, but their badges allowed them early entry. They moved on and looked at the convention map, finding the Zephyr Game Labs’ booth location.
Before coming, Ellie researched the con and discovered that attendees paid guest voice actors for their autographs. She would have been happy to do it at no charge and thrilled to have someone who wanted her signature. However, when she talked with Doug, the Zephyr VP, he told her that’s what attendees expected and that she shouldn’t short-sell her value.
“I can’t believe the game debuted at number one, with sales off the charts.” She looked up at Tucker. “Doug said the bigwigs at the company believe my voice is a driving factor. He thinks I have a big career ahead in voice acting roles for games and animation.”
Tucker squeezed her hand. “I’m proud of you, Ellie. You’ve accomplished a lot.”
His warm, sexy smile made her feel gooey inside. They’d spent every opportunity together between their work commitments during the past two weeks since their trip to Sonoita and passionate night at the B&B.
She had a hard time taking her eyes off her tall, sexy cowboy, who wore a chocolate-brown Stetson, blue western shirt, Wranglers, and brown boots. He exuded confidence and vitality, even when completely out of his element, which he was. She appreciated that he was willing to come with her even though it was completely new and alien to him.
“Did I tell you that the subscribers to my ‘Tips and Tricks for Great Social Media Presence’ YouTube channel have nearly doubled since the game came out?” Ellie shook her head. “A jump like that happening from voicework on a video game never occurred to me.”
Tucker looked thoughtful. “That’s quite the bump.”
“It may involve more business than I’d ever be able to keep up with.” Ellie blew out her breath. “Tanner’s suggestion to sell the business is now something I should consider.”
They reached Zephyr’s booth, which was staffed by two young women and a young man. Merchandise filled the table and nearby racks. A banner with Zephyr Game Labs was draped behind the tables, and signs peppered the booth. The most significant sign was a graphic for Myth Hunter, with the Nyx Cox character front and center.
