The Heartbreak Hotel (Sandy Springs #1)

Chapter Sixteen

Ella

Ella lay on her front, wearing only her underwear, with her face down in the pillow.

“No peeking,” Riley insisted as she rattled something under the bed. “I want you to relax.”

Ella lifted her arms above her head and let out a breath. She sank a little further into Riley’s mattress, but her ears pricked at every sound, wondering what the woman was up to.

There was a rustle and a click and then Riley’s voice. “This might be a little cold.”

Smooth, cold hands ran up Ella’s legs, and she flinched at the contact as they glided up over her thighs, fingers teasing under the material of her underwear and the curve of her arse, before dropping back down to her calves. Riley squirted more oil on Ella’s back, then rubbed either side of her spine and across her shoulder blades, dipping down her arms to the tips of her fingers.

“Oh my god,” Ella groaned, her muscles crying out with relief. “That feels incredible.”

“Good.” Riley caressed her thighs in circular motions and leaned close to Ella’s ear, her breath tickling her neck. “Your body is unreal.”

She was glad her face was squashed into a pillow so Riley couldn’t see her reaction. She was still learning to love her body for the way it was. Riley’s enthusiasm for her curves and wobbly bits made it easier for her to relax, knowing she wasn’t judging her—but actually enjoying it too.

Riley pressed harder, slipping her hands over her oily skin. “How’s the pressure?”

“G–good.” Ella could barely string a sentence together. Her body was levitating somewhere above her.

“Let me know if anything is too much.”

“I will.”

Riley worked magic over Ella’s muscles, her strong hands rubbing out knots in her back and taking her to a higher plane as weightlessness spread through her limbs. Every touch brought pleasure along her nerve endings, and she couldn’t hold in how good it made her feel.

Riley paused for a moment, the mattress jiggled, and then she mounted her, a leg on either side as she continued to massage. The extra pressure was welcome. She glided her thumbs up her spine, leaning forward to rub over the dip of her neck, and Ella let out another moan.

Riley’s breath ghosted over her skin. “I love hearing you,” she whispered. “It really turns me on.” She nibbled on Ella’s earlobe, and Ella grasped the pillow. Then she kissed her neck, erupting tingles everywhere, but pulled away too soon. Before Ella could complain, she resumed her pressured movement over her back, and Ella let out another involuntary whimper.

Riley had her in the palm of her hand. Literally.

Riley adjusted herself, spreading Ella’s legs so she could kneel between them. A deep ache twinged through her clit, and she fidgeted under her touch. Fingers worked at the heel of her foot, sliding over her calves, thighs, and then rested at Ella’s underwear. Riley slid her fingers underneath, inching closer to her pussy.

Ella bit her lip as she traced the outside with her thumbs, delicately, then let out a gasp. More. Heat rushed between her thighs, and her clit started to throb. Riley inched closer, teasing at the sensitive skin before grabbing her arse with force.

“Fuck,” Ella cried, her voice muffled in the pillow.

Riley’s firm hands squeezed before dipping down to brush at her entrance through the crotch of her underwear. Ella inhaled, turning her head to look at her .

Riley’s long blonde hair was tied up, her eyebrows furrowed in concentration. Her jaw was held tight, and when her eyes flicked to Ella’s, she felt herself clench.

“Is this okay?” she asked, her voice a low hum.

“Yes.” Ella squirmed underneath her, wanting more.

The corners of her lips ticked upwards, then she pressed a little harder, and Ella fell further into the mattress. She was so wet already and felt it soaking through. “God.”

Riley hissed, rubbing her through the material, and Ella squeezed her eyes shut, biting at the pillow. But then Riley stopped.

There was another rattle, and then a humming vibration filled the room.

Ella had her fair share of practice to recognise that sound.

Her pulse quickened, anticipating the touch. But Riley made her wait. She cursed, her core pounding. Just when she was about to beg for something—anything—the vibrator brushed against her crotch. The lightest touch. And it sent Ella feral.

She pushed herself onto her knees and backed into Riley, needing more contact. The vibrations sent tremors of pleasure through her, but Riley pushed her back onto the bed.

“Please,” Ella whined.

“Lift your hips.”

Ella obeyed, Riley’s commanding tone only arousing her further. Her clit throbbed with a deep, consuming ache, slick gathering in her underwear. “Please—”

No sooner had the words left her mouth than the smooth length of the vibrator teased at her, and she gripped the sheets with a groan.

“So greedy,” Riley commented. She pressed the toy harder, the pleasure intensifying in Ella’s centre. “Do you trust me?”

“Fuck.” Ella couldn’t concentrate on anything other than the electricity pulsing through her. “Y–yes.”

“Then let me take care of you.”

She slid the length of the toy along her, and Ella was surprised at its size. She bit back a whimper, the cloth barrier providing excellent friction around her clit. But she needed more. She didn’t have the patience for much more teasing.

Riley’s fingers inched her underwear to the side, slowly, torturously slowly, and Ella nipped at her lip, tightening her hold on the sheets.

Then the toy eased inside, filling her. Ella moaned, a guttural sound clawing out of her throat.

Riley fucked her with the dildo, sliding it in and out at a steady pace. Ella’s obvious arousal echoed through the room, but she didn’t care. All she cared about was the way Riley touched her, making her pant into the bedsheets.

Pleasure coated her head to toe as the vibrations pushed her to the edge, threatening to spill everywhere already. “Ah, fuck.” Her lungs strained, her breath catching in her throat as she hovered .

Then Riley pulled out, and Ella gasped, her body a quivering mess. She tugged Ella’s soaked underwear down her legs, pushed her up, and slipped the shaft back inside. When Ella cried out, Riley fucked her harder, and she gave into it completely, clinging to the sheets and letting her pound her into the mattress. Riley’s hand gripped her hip, fingers curling around her soft flesh as her other hand sunk the toy deeper. Soft, breathless groans slipped from Riley’s mouth, and Ella’s core tightened. The hard, deep thrusts, combined with the sound of Riley’s exertion, tipped her over the edge with a cry. She came hard, tightening around the length as Riley continued her pace.

“Fuck…fuck…fuck…” She rested on her elbows, blinking away the spots in her vision as her legs trembled. Without Riley’s hands on her, she’d completely collapse.

Riley slowed, before pulling out completely, and kissed Ella’s back. A shiver shot up her spine, her body somewhere in another dimension. Heat and pleasure leaked everywhere, and she bathed in it.

There was another rustle, and the vibrations started again. Riley kissed her shoulder, then her neck. Her voice sounded low in Ella’s ear. “Because you’re so greedy, do you think you have another for me?” She brushed Ella’s hair away so she could get better access to her neck, and Ella’s toes curled as she grazed her teeth over the sensitive skin.

Riley pressed a small silver bullet into Ella’s hand, and she thumbed over the smooth surface. “I want to feel you come this time.”

God. Ella nearly choked. Exhaustion robbed her of her voice, but somehow, her pussy still tingled.

“You start yourself off.” Riley’s lips dragged across her neck, making her shiver. “Tell me when you want my fingers.”

She could hardly say no to that. So she shifted the vibrator in her hand, angling it to brush over her clit.

“F–fuck.” She flinched from the sensitivity but pushed through, letting the vibrations work their magic. Riley continued to plant kisses across her shoulders, sucking hard in places, making Ella gasp and clutch the sheets. Her strong hands caressed her, her nails dragging across her quivering skin. Heat peaked between Ella’s legs, and she could already feel another orgasm starting to build. “Now,” Ella breathed.

Riley moved behind her, then slicked her fingers in Ella’s wetness before sinking into her. Slow and steady. Ella quivered, and Riley groaned at the sensation.

“Jesus. You’re wet.”

She pumped her fingers, and Ella circled the vibrator around her clit. God. She loved how Riley’s fingers felt inside her . She pushed into her, revelling in the feeling as it grew. Her heart beat wildly in her chest, her breathing ragged. She could hardly keep grip on the bullet as it slipped around her. The muscles in her legs and arms burned as she edged closer. She was going to need another massage after this.

Riley quickened the pace, hitting her deeper, and Ella let out a moan.

“I can feel you,” Riley murmured, her free hand resting on Ella’s neck. “Tightening around my fingers.”

Ella could too. She gasped as another jolt of pleasure cracked between her legs, and she bucked, almost collapsing as her orgasm claimed her. The vibrations started from the inside, rippling out in beautifully violent tremors, wracking her whole body into a shuddering mess.

She wound the sheets tighter in her grip as the waves washed over her, finally lowering herself down onto the bed, with a spent sigh. “Oh…my…god.”

“My thoughts exactly,” Riley murmured. Her hands grasped Ella’s hips, forcing her up again.

“Riley.” Ella laughed. “My legs…”

“I promise you can rest in a minute.”

What? Surely the woman was satiated. Ella wasn’t sure she could handle much more.

Riley lifted her back to her knees, her legs shaking and barely supporting her weight. She loved Riley’s strength. How easily she could move her around. She laughed at her trembling body, but the sound melted away when Riley lay down on her back, sliding to position herself underneath her, those strong hands cradling her thighs.

“What’re you…”

Riley smirked, and Ella’s focus was drawn to her dimples. Their eyes locked, and the possessive darkening of Riley’s irises almost made Ella come again. That, and the fact that her gorgeous face rested between her legs.

Riley’s gaze commanded her. “Sit.”

Ella did as she was asked and allowed gravity to take the reins. Riley guided her, gripping her hips and sliding Ella over her face. Her hot tongue sunk into her, slow and controlled, her soft lips kissing and lapping at the mess between her thighs.

“Oh, god, Riley…”

She plunged her tongue deeper, taking her time as her hands roamed up Ella’s waist, cupping her breasts. She hummed against her, the vibrations teasing, and Ella’s eyes nearly fell out of her head.

After a few torturesome moments, satisfied, Riley lifted Ella off her, rolling her onto her back. She had no say in the matter, her shaky body a slave to Riley’s strength. Everything ached in the best way possible, a warm fuzz coating her skin all over.

Her soul slowly seeped back into her body, and she turned to Riley, those blue eyes sparkling. “What?” she asked breathlessly.

Riley leaned closer, capturing her mouth in a tender kiss. The gentle gesture floored her almost as much as the second orgasm. Something about the intensity of it made her stomach completely bottom out.

Riley’s breath tickled her face. “Making you come is quickly becoming my new favourite thing.”

That’d do it, too.

Riley’s mouth curved into a smile, and Ella traced the grooves of her dimples with her fingertips. She turned to kiss them, making Ella chuckle.

“Or making you laugh,” Riley said. “A close call. I love that, too.”

Ella’s gaze flicked over Riley’s freckled face, her cheekbones, those lips. For once, she didn’t have anything to say. Words didn’t seem enough for all the emotions surging through her system. She could only look. She could only feel it.

She’d give anything to keep floating high in this bubble they’d created in Riley’s cabin. The outside world was overrun with piercing edges, sharp stingers, and nosy beaks, threatening to burst it. Ella’s luck was bound to run out sometime.

But as she admired the woman next to her, heart swelling in her chest, she hoped the weightless feeling was enough to keep them both flying high for a while longer.

Ella knew it’d be a long way to fall.
