Chapter 25
TWENTY-FIVE
Mona
The sheets feel way too soft against my sensitive skin. I am not used to such luxury, so I take a few extra moments relishing in the feel of them. I move my legs under the covers and hug them to my chest, smiling as I keep my eyes closed.
“If you don’t stop moving, you’ll give me no choice but to fuck you again.”
Alex’s sleepy voice from behind me startles me. I almost forgot he was here, but I don’t hate it either.
With my eyes now open, I flip onto my back, then land on the left side to face him. He is already on his side, looking as adorable as ever with his hair all ruffled and tired eyes.
“I am a little sore.” His eyes widen at hearing that. “But I wouldn’t say no,” I continue. I sound breathy and flirty, and like I am in love.
Flashbacks from last night invade my brain, reminding him that I did tell him that I loved him, and more than once.
It’s stupid of me, but I don’t regret it.
I also don’t have any expectations after today.
In fact, I expect that he’ll be running for the hills once he drops me off at my apartment later today.
It’s weird that I am not panicking or being sad about the situation.
In fact, it’s as if we said our goodbyes to each other last night.
This is closure, and we might as well make the best of it.
Starting tomorrow, we are moving on with our lives, separately, because it could never be together anyway.
Now, as he runs his hand softly over my body, the covers concealing his movements, I shiver in pleasure. I will take every single morsel he has to give me up until our time is done.
His fingers slide over my buttock, dipping gently until they reach my back entrance. Then, just as slowly, they lower until he dips them into my juices. It is no surprise that I am ready for anything he has in store for me. It’s been like this from day one.
He brings his head down until we are close enough to kiss. There’s an underlying current as we stare at each other while he slides two fingers in and out of me. Every second time, he brings them up to my back entrance, circling the puckered hole over and over again until I can’t think anymore.
“I can’t stand not being with you.”
His words hit me hard, but I don’t have time to react in any way before he presses an open mouthed kiss along my jawline.
“When you’re not with me…” He gently sinks his teeth into my earlobe. “I obsess over where you are and who you are with…”
He’s echoing what I feel when we are apart. I hate how much I thought about all this every time he broke up with me.
“I fantasize about killing anyone else who dares to touch you…”
I should be terrified by what he’s saying. Instead, I am even more turned on than before. In fact, I could come just from saying all these things to me. His voice in itself is an aphrodisiac, and my hips respond to the call.
“I don’t want anyone else to touch me,” I whimper in a moment of weakness. “I only want you…”
Throwing my leg over his thigh, I open up to give him more access while my mouth chases his. There’s this need inside of me, where I want to submit to Alex Connors in all the ways. I want him to claim me for the world to see, and I want to say yes.
I push away the reminder that he would never do that.
Instead, I kiss him harder, our tongues in a duel over the other’s territory.
I move my hips faster against his hand, hoping that at some point he would replace it with what I crave more, his dick.
I can feel how hard it is against the leg that’s resting on the mattress, so there is no doubt that he wants me back.
He pulls his mouth away, a crazed look taking residence on his face. “We’re gonna go slow, baby.”
His words are at odds with his body. His fingers get more aggressive as they slide in and out of me, every so often returning to the forbidden territory in the back.
I lean back a bit when he drops his open mouth back to the overheated skin on my chest. With each nip and lick, he gets closer to my breasts, and I can’t breathe from the pressure that’s building inside of me.
“You only come for me…”
The sound of his voice lingers somewhere above my head. I almost can’t make sense of his words, but when I do, my body becomes unhinged. He dominates every cell in my body, and I don’t ever want to be without him.
His mouth latches onto my nipple, sucking with so much force, I’m sure it will hurt later. But the pain helps me find the edge I’ve been looking for. It brings me closer to what I crave.
As I continue riding his hand, I have this fantasy playing on a loop in my head.
I am wearing a white dress, and Alex is on his knees in front of me.
He hugs my waist while his face rests against my swollen stomach.
There are tears of happiness in the corners of his eyes. He tells me that he loves me…
“Come for me, baby,” he growls against my skin.
The words reverberate and take over my entire body. There’s a tingle that starts at my toes, then runs up my legs. It explodes all over his hand as it climbs all over my breasts, softly lingering over my heart before invading all of my senses.
I drown in ecstasy, completely unaware of space or time. I float somewhere up in the sky, a cloud enveloping me in its plush softness, making me feel safe, pushing me to completely let go.
There’s some noise in the background, but I can’t make out what that’s all about. My focus is only on Alex and the way he makes me feel. I don’t want this to stop, because once it does, it means that I will have to come back to reality. I don’t want that.
“You’re all mine,” Alex whispers on a loop against my ear. His fingers are still inside of me, causing for my pussy to spasm uncontrollably.
I dig my hands into his hair to hold his head close to me. I will die if he lets me go and leaves this bed.
“I think they want us downstairs.” He chuckles when he tries to pull back, but I don’t let go of him.
I finally realize that someone is banging against the door to the bedroom. “Breakfast is ready!”
I rub my thighs together, feeling my internal juices as they rub into my skin. Alex caresses my butt cheek, then up my back and around to the front where he cups my breast.
“They are terrible hosts,” I murmur, still not ready to leave our little bubble.
“The absolute worst,” Alex agrees, with the beginning of a smirk forming in the corner of his mouth.
I am suddenly overcome by a wave of emotion. I don’t regret spending the night, as unplanned as this was. It bought me a bit more time with him, something I will never have again. That is why I am in no rush to get out of this bed or step foot out of this room.
A loud bang against the door makes me jump in place, and I clutch at Alex’s arm.
“Time to rise and shine, love birds,” Kyle yells, and I swear it sounds like he’s speaking right into the keyhole.
Alex shakes his head in annoyance. “I really don’t understand why he and Zara couldn’t go home last night.”
Since I don’t remember very many details from last night, at least nothing past Alex pulling me into the room assigned to us, I can’t comment. But now that I have to deal with this nuisance, I have to agree with him and wonder why Kyle is still here.
“Thank you for inviting me to this party.” My lips feel suddenly dry, and I am not myself. “I had a good time.”
Alex runs a hand over my hair. It takes everything in me not to lean into it as I beg him for more.
“Thank you for deciding to come. I’ve had an amazing time with you.”
There’s something there, in his tone. Something that I just can’t pinpoint but can’t imagine that it’s good. My senses never betrayed me before, and I could always tell when Alex was about to drop something on me, like him wanting to break up again.
I decide that I will have the upper hand this time. With the element of surprise on my side, I tangle my legs with his before bringing my hands up to his shoulders and pushing him back. When I land on top of him, I fit him so perfectly, I want to cry.
“Baby…” He smirks at me again, hands on my hips, his strong fingers digging into my skin. His hips come off the bed while the tip of his cock searches for my warm opening. I am always ready for him, and he knows that. But that’s not on the agenda for this morning.
My hands are now clenching the headboard, and my breasts swing gently right above Alex’s head. As if he can read my mind, he opens his mouth and comes up a little until his tongue is wrapped around one nipple. He sucks it gently into his mouth, making my eyes roll to the back of my head.
He switches breasts just as his cock locates my entrance. All he has to do is press himself up more, and he’ll slide right in. I move my hips back and forth, a chuckle escaping me when Alex lets out a low growl of warning.
“Wake up!”
The yell outside in the hallway makes me jump, and out of instinct, I roll off him, landing on my feet on the floor.
“That was some weird circus move,” I declare.
Alex watches me closely from the bed, a hand now wrapped around the base of his cock.
“Come back here, Mona,” he beckons me with his voice.
There’s so much want in his tone, I almost listen and hop back on.
But then, I hear voices from somewhere in the house, and I decide that I can’t.
It was okay last night while I had a strong buzz coupled with being absolutely slap happy.
But now, without my brain soaked in alcohol, I don’t feel comfortable having sex with Alex in his friends’ house, who I don’t even know that well despite them being very welcoming last night.
“I hate to leave you like this…” He gives me a look, and I start laughing. “Okay, I’m not sorry to leave you like this, but…”
He groans. “Don’t let it be a but in there, baby.”
“There has to be,” I declare. Then, I promptly jump, and my hand goes to my chest when Kyle knocks at the door again. “I will kill your friend. Do you want him to see me naked as I do it?”
