CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX
Tenor
I stripped off her thick sweats, revealing each creamy inch of her thighs. The shower was running and the water was probably warm already.
Time had ticked by agonizingly slowly until dinner was done and dishes were cleaned up. I wasn’t rushing her. By the time we’d been done eating, her eyes were no longer glassy, but her cheeks were flushed and her breath shallow. Each time she looked at me, a furnace roared hotter in her gaze. That wasn’t from the alcohol. I hadn’t had a drop and I felt the same.
I yanked every strip of clothing off her. She did the same to me. Our arms were getting tangled and we were dancing around to get each other naked.
She smiled at me and the damn sunrise was right here in my bedroom while outside the sun had set.
“You’re mine, Goldilocks.” I picked her up and stepped into my oversized shower. Carefully, I set her down, then dropped to my knees. Warm water hit my back. Her nipples were peaked and begging to be sucked.
Later. I needed a fast, hard connection with her, but I had to make sure she was ready.
She twined her fingers in my increasingly damp hair. “If I’m dreaming, don’t wake me up.”
“You’re not dreaming, and I’ll make you come so hard that you’ll be sure of it.” I hitched one of her legs over my shoulder and went right for her swollen clit.
“Tenor,” she groaned.
Her salty-sweet scent surrounded me. I lavished her tight little bundle of nerves with attention, vowing to make up for the time we’d missed. A month might be a blink in a lifetime, but it had crawled by for an eternity.
Forever was what I wanted with this woman.
When it came to Ruby Casteel, I knew exactly what was in my heart. She was it. She was my endgame.
Sharp tugs on my hair massaged my scalp as I fluttered my tongue over her clit.
“Tenor. Oh god , Tenor.”
She was close, but I couldn’t let her come. Not yet. This first time between us, since we’d broken each other and pieced the other back together, I had to be inside her. I had to come with her.
Just as she arched her back, her hips making long, slow rolls against my face, I stopped and rose.
Water droplets danced on her eyelashes. Her eyes had gone hazy, filled with lust.
I claimed her mouth and lifted her. She automatically wrapped her legs around my waist. I adjusted my stance until my cock was at her hot entrance.
“I need you,” she said against my mouth.
I thrust in and she called out. My hands were branding her ass, but she flexed her thighs to move along my length. “You’re a greedy woman.”
“When it comes to you.” She gasped and rode me.
I put her back against the wall and took over, pumping in and out of her. I would slam into my climax in record time, but she was right there with me. Her soaked walls fisting me, milking me.
“Fuck, Ruby.” I spread her legs wide and pounded into her. Each thrust scraped against her clit until my name rang off the bathroom wall.
Lightning raced down my spine, shooting through my dick. “Fuck!”
My legs shook as I came. I would not fall, but it took all my concentration to stay upright through the monster orgasm that rushed over me.
“Tenor!” Heat flooded between us.
Aftershocks ran through her and right into me. “Goddamn, Ruby. I’m so in love with you.”
She blinked up at me, her expression dreamy. Satisfied. “You are?”
“Without a doubt.”
“Good.” She nipped at my lower lip. “Because I love you. And I really love what you do with that tongue.”
“I’m never going to get enough of you.”
“I used to think I’d never be enough.”
“Oh, my little Goldilocks, you’re so fucking perfect.” I grinned and nipped and licked her lips before trailing kisses down her neck. My erection hadn’t softened. I could take her again, but not like this. Gingerly, I untangled her limbs from me. When her feet hit the floor, I turned her around. First, I pressed one of her hands against the wall by her head, then the other.
“Stay right there.”
She blinked over her shoulder at me. Water droplets cascaded down her soft skin. “What are you doing?”
“Remember that shower scene?”
