Chapter 17
Chapter Seventeen
ALICE
Stretching my body, a delicious ache rolls through me.
Memories of last night swarm me like a tidal wave.
Of everything that Declan and I did. I don’t know why I was so worried.
I’ve never experienced anything so pleasurable in my entire life.
I mean, I knew Declan would be amazing, but wow. I never expected that.
Reaching out next to me, I confirm the bed is empty. Given that I can hear noise coming from the kitchen, I know where he is.
It’s still dark in here, the curtains and blinds drawn. Since I don’t have to go to Enchanted Petals today, I’m in no rush to get up.
I’d rather Declan come back to bed so we can have a repeat of last night.
When the door creaks open and he walks in—in those same gray sweatpants—holding a tray, happiness warms my body.
“Morning, Froggie.”
“Morning.”
I sit up, covering my chest with the sheet.
“I thought you could use some breakfast.”
“Oh, yeah?” I rub a hand over my tired eyes. “Is this what I can expect every time we have sex?”
He grabs a piece of bacon and munches down on it. “I mean, if you want it, I can make it happen.”
“I don’t need it,” I say, grabbing a mug of coffee. “I do appreciate it.”
“How are you feeling?” he asks, rubbing my calf through the soft sheet.
“Honestly? I’m—”
“I mean, yeah, I’d prefer you’re honest,” he interrupts. “I don’t want you to lie.”
“Why would I lie?”
“In case it was the worst sex of your life.”
“Declan.” I laugh. “Do you think I could have faked those orgasms you gave me? Multiple, I might add?”
“That was our first time having sex, Froggie. For all I know, you could be a master faker.”
Setting my coffee mug on the nightstand, I link my fingers behind Declan’s neck and pull him close. “I can assure you—honestly—that there was no faking. I have never felt better.”
“Good.” He kisses me. Soft, sweet, and way too quick for my liking.
That same heat from last night makes butterflies explode low in my belly. Has my body always reacted like this to Declan and I just pushed the feelings aside without realizing it?
Real, legitimate feelings for him. My best friend.
It’s uncharted territory for me.
Before I can let my mind wander too far, Declan pulls me back.
“What changed your mind last night?”
“It was Leon.”
“Leon? Really?”
I grab one of the croissants and tear off a corner, popping the fluffy pastry in my mouth.
“He asked why I was out with him and Jacob instead of at home with my sexy husband.”
He smiles back at me. “Leon does have good taste.”
“He does.”
“Remind me to thank him later.”
I roll my eyes. “You’re going to tell my boss thanks for convincing your wife to have sex with you? When we’re supposed to be having sex this whole time?”
”Okay, fine,” he says, “but I should at least send him a fruit basket or something.”
“No fruit basket is needed, Declan.”
“It’s not like I can send him flowers.” He tears off the other half of the pastry and eats it.
“Or, you know, just don’t say anything.” I shrug my shoulder. The sheet slips lower, exposing the top of my chest.
“I could be convinced not to say anything.”
“Oh, yeah?”
Leaning back against the headboard, the soft cotton pools around my waist.
“Yeah.”
Declan latches onto my nipple. “Oh shit, that feels amazing.”
“I love how responsive you are to me.”
“It’s so good, Dec.”
His mouth devours my breasts, showering them in attention. It’s the best way to wake up. Even better than coffee.
“You feeling good enough to do it again?” he asks.
Pushing him back onto the bed, I pull his sweats down.
“Remember what I said last night?” I drag a finger along the underside of his dick, watching as it jumps.
“Yeah.”
“Then let me make you feel good before you fuck me again.”
“Fuck.”
I seal my mouth over the head of his cock, lapping up the precum leaking out. He pushes my hair out of my face as I take more of him inside.
His dick is the perfect size. Swallowing as much of him as I can, I use my other hand to play with his balls.
Releasing him, I lick a path back up before swirling my tongue through the slit.
“So good, Declan.”
He tilts my chin up to face him. “Do you realize how good you look with my cock in your mouth?”
“Want to know what would be even better?”
“What’s that?”
“If we spend all day doing this.”
Declan rests his hands behind his hand, a cocky grin now on his face. “If you really want.”
I nod, lazily moving my hand up and down his cock. “I mean, there are a lot of places we can christen in this house.”
“I kind of like that idea. You and me having a sex-filled day.”
“Like a belated wedding celebration.”
“I’ll give you a belated wedding celebration.”
“Wait, are we talking about a real one?” I ask. Now I’m confused.
“Hell, if you want to celebrate our wedding, us moving in together, we can do it. But right now, the only thing I want to do is to have our own celebration. I want this pussy of yours again.”
“Mmm.” I suck his cock back down into my mouth.
“It seems you like that idea,” he says.
Popping off him, I wipe my mouth and straddle his hips. “Is this what you want?”
I roll my pussy up and down his dick.
“Fuck. I could get off just like this.” Declan’s fingers dig into my hips.
“You’re not the only one.”
He slaps my ass, heat simmering through me. “Then get going.”
Resting my hands on my chest, I ignore him, continuing my ministrations. “I think I deserve at least one orgasm before you come inside me again.”
“Fuck,” he bites out. “I like this side of you, Froggie.”
“Oh, yeah? What side is that?”
“The side that takes what you want.”
Each glide of his cock through my wet pussy sends fire racing through me. “You make me feel so damn good, Dec.”
“Come on my cock so I can come inside you then. You’re killing me.”
When the tip of his dick brushes past my clit, I can’t hold it together any longer. I combust.
“Declan!” I shout.
“Fuck, so good, Alice.” His fingers bruise my hips as he keeps rocking me over his hard length as I come and come.
It feels endless, stars bursting behind my eyes as lust travels through my body. The vibrations rocketing inside me are like nothing I’ve ever felt before. Holy shit. This is probably the greatest orgasm I’ve ever had in my life, and I know being with Declan like this, it’s only just the beginning.
“How do you make me feel so good?” I whisper.
“Not as good as you make me feel.”
A soft smile plays on Declan’s face as he looks up at me. It makes my heart bang around in my chest.
It stirs up a lot of feelings. A lot of feelings that I shouldn’t be having for my husband. But I don’t want to think about that right now.
I only want to bask in how good this man is making me feel.
Reaching between us, I line Declan up and slowly sink down on him. The stretch is delicious as I dig my nails into his chest.
He reaches up and strums my clit as I swivel my hips, adjusting to his size.
“That feels incredible.”
My moves are slow and measured as I lift off him and move back down. He hits somewhere inside me even deeper than last night.
“You’re driving me crazy,” he grinds out. “Faster.”
“No.” I shake my head. “This feels perfect.”
“I know I shouldn’t complain because I’ve been wanting you so much.”
“Yeah?” I drop my hands onto either side of his head, not stopping the movement of my hips.
“I’ve wanted you so badly. Fuck. I know the ball was in your court, but damn, Alice. The wait was killing me.”
“I guess that means we’ll have to make up for lost time.”
Declan pulls me closer, mouths connecting as our bodies do the talking. I get swept up in this man. Each shift of my hips pushes me that much closer to tipping over the edge.
And when I do?
Declan comes with me, making it even better than last night. Feeling his cum inside me is like nothing I’ve ever experienced. I’ve never gone bare before, but I can’t imagine doing it with anyone else.
“Holy shit.” I pull off of him and collapse next to him.
He pulls me into his side, his softening dick pressing into my back.
“You got that right.”
“How is each orgasm better than the last?”
“Is that a challenge?” he asks, tracing a pattern into my stomach.
“I mean, no, but if you want it to be, I won’t mind you trying.”
“Good. Then you should eat breakfast.”
“Oh, yeah?” I huff out a breath.
“Yeah. Because if I plan on making each one better than the last, we’ll be doing this all day long.”
