Chapter 10
Ava
Tyler was intoxicating to be around.
Everything about him seemed to draw me in.
I was currently lounging on his bed, naked as the day I was born, slowly running my hand across all his muscles. There was so much I wanted to learn about this man.
But had last night been a one-time event?
I hoped not. But I wasn’t the type to pressure a man to tell me. Time would tell soon enough without him needing to say a word.
We’d showered, then made love repeatedly until we both couldn’t keep our eyes open anymore. We’d fallen asleep as dawn crept in to steal away the night.
Despite his injury, the man made love like a champion. I’d never felt so satisfied in all my life. Every cell in my body was glowing warmly, feeling pampered and lazy.
I didn’t have to be at work for hours. There was plenty of time for some morning affection.
My touch strayed down his happy trail to the devil between his legs. He was hard-cocking it this morning, and I knew exactly what I wanted to do with that thing.
But as I wrapped my hand around his dick, he groaned and shook his head. “Sorry, darling. I’ve got to go into Fernwood for my therapy appointment.”
“You go to therapy?”
He must have seen the inquisitive look in my eye, because he quickly clarified, “Physical therapy. For my hip. Three times a week right now. It will be less frequent over time.”
My lips quirked up into a smile. “Too bad. We could have had some morning fun.”
He laughed, “With you, every morning must be fun.”
“Only when I’ve got a strong mountain cock in my hands. That doesn’t happen too often, though.”
His eyes landed on mine, and heat shot through me. Tyler didn’t look like a man who was done with me. That was good.
I hope I’m right.
He grazed my cheek with his fingertips. “Can I see you again?”
A jolt of electricity ran through me.
He wants to see me again.
Trying to act casual, I said, “Yeah. I’d love to see you again. I had fun last night.”
With his eyes still latched onto mine, he rumbled, “It was more than fun. That was a life-altering event.”
I laughed at that. “Are you saying I’m good in bed, Tyler?”
He growled back, “I’m saying we’re good in bed together. Don’t tell me you didn’t feel it, too. This was more than sex. Or… if it was just sex, it was the kind where two people connect instinctively, on a deeper level.”
My breath caught in my throat.
I wasn’t used to a man being so direct.
More than sex.
Oh, I hoped that was true. I was a thousand percent in on Tyler.
But even as I wanted to wrap my lips around his cock again, he was already standing up, wincing as he did. The pants went on first, then a shirt. His gorgeous body disappeared from view, hidden by too much fabric.
He talked as he got ready. “So, when can I see you again? No pressure if you don’t want that. But I want to be clear with you that I want to see you again.”
I sat on the bed in a jumble of covers. “I work tonight. I haven’t mentioned this, but my job keeps me out late. Too late for me to swing by afterward unless you’re a total night owl.”
He shook his head no. “I’m adaptable, but normally I’m in bed by ten. I follow the natural light out here.”
“That’s what I figured. You seem like the early-to-rise type. So, my next day off is in three days. What about then?”
Tyler furrowed his brow. “That’s so far away. What about tomorrow before you go to work?”
I grinned at him. He wasn’t playing coy or acting uninterested. Some of the guys my age still played those games. But Tyler was past all that. I liked his maturity. “That sounds perfect. I can swing by after I wake up. Plus, you never told me what was in the letter.”
“The letter?” he asked as he popped boots onto his feet. “I never opened it. It felt like something we should do together.”
“You waited for me?” That was really touching.
“Yeah. I almost opened it. I was sooo close the other night. But we discovered it together, so I think we should unravel the rest of the mystery together, too.”
“And we don’t have time right now? It wouldn’t take but a few minutes.”
“Naw. I’m going to have to drive like the devil to make it to my appointment as it is.”
A tiny stab of regret flew through me, but it didn’t last long. I was too giddy over this man to be down for long.
I’d been waiting to find out the contents of this letter for days now. Ever since Halloween night.
But there were other, more pressing matters to attend to right now.
I’d brought Tyler a warm cake straight out of the oven. After inhaling two pieces, he’d turned his attention to me.
He was currently devouring my pussy while I leaned back on his couch. Our clothes had lasted less than sixty seconds once the cake was eaten.
“Where did you learn how to do this?” I asked breathlessly as he drove me closer and closer to release.
Tyler laughed lightly, but didn’t stop what he was doing to respond. My clit was ready to start singing when he pulled away.
“Just a few seconds more, please?” I begged.
He shook his head. “Naw. I want you to come with me inside you.”
Tyler led me out of his living room and back to the bedroom, his cane thumping along with each step he took.
I couldn’t help but notice that he seemed to be limping more than when I’d first met him.
“Did I injure you the other night?”
He let out a husky laugh. “It’s a muscle strain. Not an injury. I actually checked in with my physical therapist about it, and they gave me the green light. I can have sex with this lame-ass hip. He even suggested it as… exercise. But maybe today we can start with you on top.”
I might be a train wreck at work later on tonight if this was how he planned to start our visit. The idea filled me with delight.
Tyler positioned himself on the bed, looking like a mountain beast comfortable in his den, cock standing straight up. He was ready for me.
I straddled him as he slid the tip of his cock up and down against me. I was practically purring for him as I slipped down onto him, his shaft filling me up. I sunk down all the way to the base, getting every last inch inside me.
Then, I just studied the man for a moment.
Tyler was staring up at me in a way that went beyond just attraction. I saw strength on his face, combined with something tender. He acted like this meant as much to him as it did to me.
Keeping my eyes glued on him, I started shifting up and down, a rise and fall as old as time. Had I ever wanted to ride a man’s cock as much as this? I didn’t think so. At least I couldn’t remember it ever feeling this good.
And I had a suspicion that the reason it felt so good was because we were meant to be.
Could you fall in love with a man in the span of just a few short days? Until this week, I hadn’t believed it was possible. But now… I was desperate to keep seeing him.
He started to match my movement with thrusts of his own, but I shook my head. “Why don’t you save your strength? Let me do this. You just lie back and relax.”
Tyler grunted in approval, and put his hands on my hips, moving them in tempo to my motions.
This wasn’t going to take long.
What had started off slow and controlled had turned chaotic.
I was sliding up and down on his cock like a possessed woman now. I needed to feel the friction, and the fullness, followed by the emptiness of retreat. With each lift of my hips, I rose up off of him, and with each drop I filled myself with him again. And again. And again.
Ohhhh. Had anything ever felt this good?
He’d already brought me to the edge of an orgasm out in the living room, so my body was primed. But when he slipped a hand down to my clit and started rubbing, I couldn’t contain myself any longer.
I went frenetic. Tiny cries escaped my lips as I rode his cock.
His eyes roamed between my face and my breasts, and I knew he was watching them fly up and down as I rode him hard.
This was it.
I couldn’t hold back any longer.
I clenched down tight on his cock, a stranglehold, tighter, tighter, tighter.
It was right at the moment that I peaked that Tyler gently pinched my clit. It drove me so far over the edge that I couldn’t control myself.
Then I cried out so loud I feared Abby and Silas heard me over the hill.
Collapsing down on his chest, I didn’t care if I was being selfish.
The man hadn’t come yet, but I couldn’t keep going. Not while my body was trying to figure out how to put itself back together again.
But Tyler didn’t seem to mind.
He laughed, a low, hearty growl, then said, “I like watching you come, Ava. I’ve never liked anything better in my life.”
Slowly I came back to my senses. I was still on the man, clutching the muscles of his arms, sweaty and spent and a little crazy. My heart was skipping beats, it was galloping along so fast.
“You’re… you… even when you don’t do anything. You’re like catnip,” I whispered breathlessly.
Another chuckle slipped past his sexy lips, and he rubbed his chin across my cheek, his soft beard tickling my skin. “I’ve never been called catnip before. Are you a kitty cat who needs to keep coming back for more?”
“Yeah. No one’s ever fucked me the way you do.”
He gently cradled the back of my head, fingers softly massaging me. “It’s more than just fucking, Ava. There’s something between us.”
That was the second time he’d said something like that. I was beginning to think the man didn’t consider me a one-night stand. But the jury was still out on if I was a short-term fling or something more.
Quietly I said, “You didn’t come. Can I make you come?”
“No man could say no to that. Yes, please.”
I kissed him then, and he groaned like I was turning him inside out. He was still inside me, hard and pulsing, feeling even bigger than before somehow.
I wanted to show this man what I felt toward him. So I slipped myself off of him, and made my way down that gorgeous chest of his, kissing his skin the whole way.
Then I made it to his belly button, and he groaned again, even though I wasn’t touching him yet. “Ava, I’m going to come in thirty seconds even if you don’t touch me. Swear to god.”
It was time to put that to the test. I wrapped my lips around his tip and slipped my mouth down onto him, registering the sound coming out of his mouth.
He sounded like a bear during mating season.
And he was right. It didn’t take much.
I suckled on his cock for a minute or so, my movements smooth and fluid as I bobbed. The whole time he groaned like a beast and then, when his roaring turned even louder, I felt the first spurt of his hot come in my mouth. I sucked him tighter then, as his desire spilled out onto my tongue.
It was only when he shuddered a little and said, “No more. No more,” that I stopped sucking.
When I raised my eyes to look at him, I saw him staring down at me with awe and wonder in his eyes, as though he were seeing a goddess live in front of him.
I wanted to see that look on his face over and over again.
Maybe between the cookies, the cakes, and the blowjobs, I might just be able to catch this man for good.
That made me feel afraid. When did I go from having a tiny crush on him to wanting to spend the rest of my life with Tyler?
My heart felt at risk now. What was I going to do when I found out he was just having fun?
This couldn’t be a short-term fling. It just couldn’t be.
Those were the thoughts that ran through my mind as he pulled me into his arms, cradling me close.
