Dangerously Yours (Titans of Chicago #3)

LULU

The room looked like something one would have found on that old MTV show about celebrity homes. It was elegant, matching the style of the rest of the place, but it was definitely more what I had expected to see in Noah’s home. Both side walls were lined with autographed jerseys in glass cases, all of which had been autographed by players that I even recognized by name. There were also shelves with various helmets, most of them being signed as well. The rest of the wall was the same caramel-toned leather of the six seats in the center of the room. They all faced the wall of televisions, especially the large one right in the center. Above it, there were three more albeit smaller ones.

The room had a very masculine feel to it. It was all male. All Noah. I shivered when he came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist. My head tilted to the side on reflex, and he took advantage of it. I loved feeling him touch me anywhere, but neck kisses had always been a weakness for me. It hadn’t taken him long to figure that out the first time we had been together, and it was something he hadn’t forgotten since.

“Noah,” I breathed as the soft caress of his lips turned to something much different. He sank his teeth into my throat, and it sent an answering response deep inside of my core.

I needed him. It seemed to be a constant state, but considering what he had done for me tonight, I wanted to be everything he wanted and more. Most men wouldn’t have come anywhere near me once they found out about the drama with my ex. Cade was very intimidating, but he couldn’t push Noah around like he had so many others over the years. Even his title meant nothing because the man currently suckling on my throbbing pulse point had the same one, and was much more respected in those circles.

Over the years, I had seen Titans come and go from the spotlight. There was a time for every one of them, and I had almost started to believe that Cade’s issues were due to the dimming of his. This younger generation of Titans had everything the older generations wanted, and they also had the time and potential to be so much more than their counterparts. I had gotten to know the group of them, but not as well as the one currently kissing his way up to my ear.

“Dessert has always been far superior to dinner, Lulu. You, my dear, are my absolute favorite kind, too.”

He brushed his lips back and forth over the lobe, even tonguing it once or twice. I shivered slightly, and held on to him for dear life. So many nights I had woken up alone and wondered whether I had dreamed this entire man up. When in moments like this, I hesitated to even breathe for fear that it was true. There was no telling what I had done right to deserve a lover so patient, skilled, and hot as hell, but I wanted to keep him as long as he would have me.

I opened my mouth hoping to respond to his words, but he beat me to the chase. “Let’s watch a movie together. The remote is on one of the seats. You find something for us, and I’ll make a few drinks.”

“Okay,” I told him, then held back my remorseful sigh when he pulled away from me.

I watched for a few seconds as he went to the bar off in the corner. I had missed it completely, and beside it, there were dart boards as well as another door. Briefly, I wondered what was behind it, but then realized that it was none of my business. I turned at that moment and walked down to the front of the seating, then located the remote control. There wasn’t one of these at home, so it took me a minute to figure out how to even turn it on. Eventually, I located the power button, then found the library of movies. As I scrolled through them, there were a few that hadn’t even been released to the public yet. Bootleg movies. I turned to him in question, and he grinned.

“I know the star well,” he responded before I could even ask him how he had gotten this blockbuster early.

“Anton Kingston?” I asked, and he gave me a nod as he placed the drinks and bottle onto a tray and walked toward me.

“Anton and I are very close friends. You do remember that he is a Titan in Manhattan.”

It dawned on me then that there were Titans all over the country. Of course, the men would all know of one another and even be friends. New York City wasn’t a place I visited all that often, but no one could miss the talk of those men who dominated the Big Apple’s society pages the same as men like Noah and Cade. A sourness filled me at the thought of my ex-husband. He always seemed to creep into my mind, but I wouldn’t let thoughts of him ruin this otherwise perfect night. Well, if you also left off the reason the two of us had to leave during the middle of our meal.

“He’s very hot,” I mentioned, giggling at the sound of Noah’s growl.

Women my age didn’t fall into bed with men so much younger than them. They also didn’t giggle like schoolgirls around them, either. I realized since the divorce and how the social invitations dried up, and why, that I wasn’t like most women, though. As Noah set down the tray, then removed his shirt, I was very glad for that. Those catty women who now shunned me would be going to bed with Titans who acted every bit as shady as Cade, meanwhile I would have Noah who was like a twenty if those others were considered a ten.

“No swooning over him. I have to see it enough in person from others when with him,” Noah said, and the seriousness of his voice had me smiling.

“There are no worries there. Why would I need to swoon over other men when you’re right here?”

He set the tray down, and it was in that moment that I had caught a glimpse of the box of condoms beside the drinks. I went to speak but all words were cut off when he pulled me close, then fused his mouth to mine. This man could kiss better than anyone I had ever kissed. Cade might have been my first lover, but he hadn’t been my first kiss. Or really even my second, third, or fourth. I would take all of those others in the past and forget them entirely for another from Noah.

He seemed just as turned on as I was because when I ran one hand down his bare chest, my knuckles brushed along his erection causing him to groan against my lips. Feeling a bit daring, I unbuttoned the top button to his jeans, then slowly lowered the zipper. I was able to finally slip my hand inside, although his large size made it impossible for me to do more than simply rub him. It seemed to be enough before the grip Noah had on my arms tightened as I teased him. There was nothing headier than knowing that I could affect him in some of the very ways that he did me. It was not only motivating, but it made me feel powerful in a way.

That feeling was one I kept even after he pulled my hand away, then broke off the kiss. “Let’s look at the movie before I abandon that idea altogether and just take you to bed.”

I wouldn’t have complained about the alternative, and he chuckled when he saw my expression. “What?” I asked. “You make that sound like a bad thing.”

“Not a bad thing,” he replied, and I shivered as he slid his gaze down my body. He then added, “I just want to show you something more than the usual. While I think of little else other than fucking you senseless, I want you to know that I value our time for more than just that.”

“I never thought you didn’t,” I tried to assure him.

“Maybe not, but I want this to be like a real date, even if we’re in for the night.”

I could understand where he was coming from, and it made my heart swell even more in my chest. So far, Noah had been the perfect man, and while I usually would be preparing myself for the shoe to drop, I wouldn’t tonight. The fact that he had thought to grab condoms so they would be nearby let me know where he intended for this evening to go. His words, however, wanted me to know that he actually wanted to spend time with me beforehand. Just when I thought I couldn’t fall harder for this man, he went and did something like this.

God, I was so foolish to fall in love so easily, and with someone so young. Noah made it virtually impossible not to, though. I followed him to the chairs and I sat down beside him. There were no more words that needed to be said as he began to play the movie I had stopped on, then poured us each a glass of vodka. I took mine, nursing it between my hands, then turned my attention away from my lover to the screen where an equally as hot man was now front and center.

Anton Kingston had been a Hollywood heartthrob for as long as I could remember. He was obviously much younger than me too, but still a bit older than Noah himself. Everyone had seen the man on some magazine, especially those that were stacked beside cash registers at the grocery store, and I remembered seeing pictures of him with his wife. She was also a classic beauty, and I wondered how she managed to accept the adoration he received from so many women across the globe. I was sure that Noah garnered some attention too and just thinking about women crowding him had me slamming back the rest of my glass.

It was sad really how I was sitting here getting upset and jealous over something I hadn’t even witnessed for myself. And even if I had, there was nothing I could say about it. Noah and I were just having fun. I was the stupid one to have gone and fallen so quickly. Noah had never mentioned anything of the sort himself, only indicating he had feelings. Never had he called them love.

“What’s going on in that pretty head of yours?” He asked, and I glanced in his direction.

“Huh?”

“You were watching the movie, then your thoughts went somewhere else. Unless, you’re that turned off by this movie. I could change it?—”

“No,” I quickly responded. “The movie is great. Anton’s one hell of an actor. He...” I stopped talking when I heard Noah mumble something. “What?”

He grumbled some more before answering me. “It’s not that hard to read a few lines and walk around shirtless.”

I smiled at the very fact that Noah was jealous. It was actually cute, but completely unnecessary. After stealing what would likely be a final look at the man on the screen, I got out of my chair and moved over to Noah. I climbed onto his lap, then tipped his chin up so he would have to look at my face.

“You’re much hotter than he is,” I said, mainly to appeal to his vanity. Both Titans were sex on a stick, but knowing Noah the way that I did, more than just his looks made him sexy.

“I really am,” he told me, and this time I did let out another giggle.

Noah ran his hands down my back as we stared at one another, then he lifted me enough to fully pull my dress to my waist. After, his fingers dug into my ass making me moan. He then brought one hand to the spaghetti straps of my dress, then slowly lowered one down my arm. I helped him free it, and then the other, before breaking off eye contact as I leaned all the way back.

He lowered his head and his warm breath was like a caress over my bare skin. I shifted when he used his teeth to capture one of my nipples. He laved it with his lips and teeth before moving onto the other one. I was so damn wet at this point that I wouldn’t even be surprised if I had left a wet spot on his jeans. He then pushed both breasts together, then buried his head between them.

“Noah, I can’t wait. I need you to fuck me. Please,” I begged, not even caring about anything else at this moment.

He nipped along the side of one breast before pulling me back into a seated position. “Take your clothes off, Lulu.”

I was more than just a little eager as I quickly got off of him and had my dress, heels, and thong in a pile at my feet. He had taken his own pants and shoes off at that moment, and I practically drooled as he slid the latex condom over his erect shaft. I loved his cock. It was long, wide, and he wielded it like a deadly weapon. Everything about this man was lethal. I had often strayed from dangerous situations, but with him, I ran headfirst toward them, not even giving a damn about the consequences. I not only felt young and beautiful when with him, but I also felt invincible which was a potent combination.

When he had finished, I moved to climb back atop him, but he put his hand out to stop me. “I need a taste,” he told me.

I raised one leg up and had to hold onto the top of his head to steady myself as he buried his face between my legs. His tongue was wicked, and he knew it, which was why he teased me incessantly with it. At night when we were apart, he would talk about how sweet I tasted, and what he planned to do to me the next time he had me in his bed, and those things were often strong enough that I had seriously considered leaving my penthouse in the middle of the night to go and find him.

“Fuck,” I cried out when he thrust two fingers inside of me as he latched onto my clit. My entire body was trembling. It was hard to stand up when my knees kept buckling. I pulled at his hair as I continued to curse between whimpers. He was determined to make me come, even though I was equally determined to hold out. Noah’s skills proved to be too much, and I threw my head back as I shattered apart for him. Usually, he would remove his head at this point, but he never slowed his actions which had me nearly crumpling to the floor. I grabbed onto him, and like the anchor he had become, he was the only thing holding me up. “Please.”

I could barely hold on any longer, especially after he made me come a second time. Hearing the desperation in my plea, he finally removed his head, and the sight of his bearded chin glistening with my essence had my core aching. He leaned back in the chair, and I quickly crawled back on top of him, straddling him between my legs.

“Take what you want, then I will give you what you need,” he told me.

I positioned myself right above him, and when he pushed my breasts back together like he had done before, I quickly impaled myself on him. We both moaned, and as he attacked my breasts like he had just done my clit, I started to ride him. Noah felt so damn good inside of me. He filled me like no one else ever had, and I couldn’t get enough of him. And judging by the way he groaned, I could tell he felt the same way.

I dropped my head back and picked up speed. His hands eventually dropped to my hips, and when he lifted me, I held onto the arms of the chair. Noah then thrust up into me, and I stayed like that as he nearly had me ready to come again. Before I could hurtle over the edge, he slammed me down on top of him, then kept me pinned to him. His thick cock throbbed inside of me, every slight pulse and swell of it making it harder to stay still.

Noah kissed along my upper chest, then teased my nipples for a few more seconds, before he rose completely off of the chair, taking me with him. He turned, and I now had my back to the chair, and using the arms as leverage, I clung to those as he started to move inside of me. I dropped my head back once more, reveling in the praise he gave me as he started to fuck me hard and fast. The earlier cliff grew narrower, so it only took another few powerful thrusts to send me careening over it.

“Noah... Noah...” I chanted, especially knowing how much he loved hearing his name come from my lips when I was climaxing.

I had nearly finished coming down from that orgasm when he pulled out of me. I raised my head, looking at him in question before his motives became clear. Seconds later, I was on my knees with my hands on the back of the chair, and he was pushing back inside of me. Hell, he was driving into me like a man possessed, and I loved it. Pain accompanied it all, but I also loved it as well.

“Does it hurt?” he asked,

“So good,” I replied. “You always make it hurt so good. I love when you take me like... Oh, God, Noah.”

He was getting even more determined and each time he slammed into me, it sent something racing through my bloodstream. He tangled his hand in my hair, then jerked my head back rendering me immobile. “I love fucking you, Lulu.”

“Yes, Noah. Please, fuck me more. I love it, too.”

“Is that all that you love?” he asked me, and although I had wanted to keep the truth inside of me, I couldn’t any longer.

Noah stilled, and when he did so, those words slipped out. “I love you, Noah.”

He growled, then bit at my ear and jaw. “And I love you, Lulu. I love you so fucking much.”

He then picked up even more speed, and when he sent me over the edge again, this time he followed. I knew he would forever catch me, as I would him. I could barely breathe as my entire body spasmed, but I finally found a heavily labored rhythm, and focused on it as he pulled out of me. I then slumped forward, very thankful for the chair back in front of me.

“I meant what I said, Lulu,” he told me, then swept me up into his arms. “Let’s go to my bed where I can show you exactly how much.”
