Chapter 14 #2

One day I'll tell her. Right now? Right now, I'm going to be lucky if I don't make a fool of myself. I don't care if my shadows do. It's every man for himself.

"Shoo," Reese says, waving her hands against her chest and earning not a single grumble of discontent from my shadows as they all pull away, converging on her abdomen and back to see what she's planning for us.

"As much as I'm enjoying how much they appreciate my body, it's you I asked for an opinion from. "

I let out the weakest-sounding groan. I'm mortified that the sound slips from my lips.

There's no stopping it when Reese reaches behind her back and unclasps the bra that's barely concealing what little of her breasts I haven't seen yet.

My fingers are like a vise on her hips, and I don't dare move them even if I'm all but drooling over her body as she reveals more and more to me.

"Zill?" Reese says my name like a question, and I have to blink a few times before I can tear my gaze away from her chest to look up at her face. She's smiling. That's good. It'd be very unfortunate if I were managing to offend her right now. "Will you touch me?"

I close my eyes, and I'm sure a look of pain crosses my face. My shadows are yelling at me to do as she asks, telling me I'm wasting my opportunity and that they're going to do it if I don't. But then I feel the warmth of Reese's chest against mine, her fingers sliding through my hair.

"Is this too much?" she asks.

I let out the smallest huff of amusement because this goddess of a woman is asking me if it's too much, as if I wouldn't cut off my arm to have gotten this far with her.

"We can stop if you want. I just thought it might be fun."

I open my eyes, and the glow of my eyes casts a blue tint on her skin from how close she is to me. "I'm trying not to disappoint you with how quickly this first time ends."

Reese bites down on her lower lip, trying to keep herself from laughing. "I won't be disappointed. I just want to be with you."

Her lips find mine, the kiss light at first until I soften for her, opening my mouth and letting her in.

She grabs my hand off of her hip and lowers it, cupping my fingers until I get the gist and squeeze a handful of her ass, my fingers tugging on the lace between her cheeks.

She moans into my mouth, and I lose a bit of my control.

My other hand doesn't need her prompting before finding the swell of her breast, and it's my turn to groan at the feel of her, at the excess of her.

I'm in agreement with my shadows and would give anything to be smothered between them.

They all cheer at us finally coming to an agreement before they scatter over Reese's body and try to find what makes her squeak and squeal and moan and roll her hips into me.

"Give me a second," Reese says when she pulls away from me.

Her cheeks are pink, her lips swollen. She pushes off of me and then flops onto her back.

I'm about to ask her what she's doing before she loops her fingers into the sides of her lacy underwear and tugs them down her legs.

She barely gets onto her hands and knees to crawl back over me before my shadows are swarming her again.

She swats at them, allowing me the pleasure of getting to see the trimmed red strip of hair decorating between her legs before she takes her seat back on me.

"Gods," I bite down hard to keep myself restrained as Reese's slick heat rubs against the length of me. "I'm not going to last if you keep doing that."

Reese looks down at me with a wicked gleam in her eyes. "Do you know how quickly you can go again?"

"Go again?" I ask, unable to pay attention to anything other than the friction and the heat as Reese slides against me again.

My struggle isn't helped by the way her breasts bounce as she laughs. Should I be embarrassed by her laughing? Gods, I don't think I'd be upset even if she was laughing at me.

Reese leans down, her tongue finding a place between my pecs as she licks me and then stares up at me. "Say you were to come right this second, when could you do it again?"

I shrug, not knowing an exact answer. "With you? I probably wouldn't go soft, but I don't know how long until I could fill you."

"Would you be too sensitive?" she asks, her nails digging into my chest as she lifts herself back up, making me groan again as she slides against me.

"Maybe," I answer, panting now with how badly I need to come.

She doesn't slow her grinding either. My shadows, bless them, are using all of their focus to keep me from releasing too early as well. They've even given up on touching Reese for the time being, instead pooling up on the bed, not trying to make this harder than it needs to be.

"Want to find out?" Reese asks.

I'm a mess. How Reese still seems to be so into me is a miracle in and of itself, and one I have no plans on questioning.

Still, when she wiggles down the length of my body, and doesn't stop until she's bent over me, her face right above my cock, I have to ask how I was this lucky if she's about to do what I think she is.

I don't need to ask, because one second she's looking at me, licking her lips, and the next my shadows are up around her neck, down her back, over her chest as she envelops my cock into the warmth of her mouth.

I last maybe five seconds. Long enough to feel her tongue flick against the tip of my cock and for her to take me deep once.

She's unsurprised when it's over so quickly.

My shadows put pressure on the back of her head and neck when she goes to release me, not wanting it to be over so soon. The idiots don't think about how she might not like that.

"Sorry," I tell her, scolding them in my head not to keep her anywhere when she wants to leave.

Reese doesn't slide my cock from her lips, though. No, she keeps me in her mouth as I take deep, heavy breaths. It isn't until she grabs my hand and moves it to the back of my head that I understand what she's trying to do.

"They want you to stay for a minute," I tell her, stroking my hand over her hair, groaning when she lets out a contented sigh. "I want you to stay for a minute."

Another stroke, another happy sound from her.

She softens her body, her cheek resting against my thigh, sucking on my cock while I continue stroking her hair.

Just one moment, and I'll get back to making sure she enjoys herself as well.

One moment, I tell myself as my body relaxes and my fingers keep tunneling through her hair, scratching gently against her scalp.

My eyes flutter closed at some point, and I don't mean for it to happen, but I'm so relaxed that I must fall asleep a little bit. It isn't until my shadows are in my head screeching about wanting to touch her some more that I'm finally roused. I'm so worried that I messed things up, I jerk awake.

Reese is still lying on my legs, her mouth still on my cock, but now she's looking at me with wide, startled eyes.

"Sorry," she says as though she's the one who did something wrong. "I haven't been sleeping well because of the break-in, and I guess my body's just getting caught up now that I feel safe."

I shake my head and rub at my eyes to make sure this isn't some strange dream. "You fell asleep?"

"Just for a minute, I think," she says, her cheeks rosy. "Sorry if that made you uncomfortable."

"No, no," my shadows wrap around her, urging her to come back up the length of my body, and she does it with a giggle. "I fell asleep too. Thought you'd be upset with me."

Reese narrows her eyes at me as if she thinks I'm lying, and I have to wonder why in the world that would be something I'd lie about.

She doesn't get to ask if I'm telling the truth or not because I wrap my hand around the back of her neck and bring her lips back on mine.

Kissing her, reminding my body what we're meant to be doing right now instead of napping.

I don't stop kissing her until I'm positive I'm back to full stiffness and she's breathless and pawing at my shoulders.

"I believe it's time for me to repay you," I tell her, my shadows all waving in the air as high as they can, as if to let her know we're all more than a little excited for this part.
