Chapter 33
Chapter thirty-three
Opening her eyes, Ebony stared up at the unfamiliar wooden beams overhead.
Oh yeah, after hours and hours of travel they finally got to the resort.
Ebony turned her head and looked over to Gavin.
He was in his favorite position, face down, strangling his poor pillow into submission.
Minutes ticked by as she stared at his back rise and fall.
Carefully, she lifted her hand and checked her watch.
It was late but she felt awake. Using every core muscle she had Ebony silently sat up and slipped from the bed.
The large A-frame window at the end of the room called to her.
The hazy glow emanating from it cast a dim light throughout the room.
From the bed, she could see the tops of the trees in the distance but the closer she got, the expanse of the snow-covered land filled her view.
It was beautiful yet strange. Bright yet dark, it felt as if she was in another world, not just states away.
With the black sky contrasting against the endless white it felt desolate and empty.
Nothing like the green lush terrain back home.
It was as if time stood perfectly still here.
The windless night left the trees motionless, like hundreds of soldiers frozen in their spot.
Ebony ran a hand through her hair, and twisted her lips in annoyance. Her curls were a wild mess. She had been too tired earlier to try and find her bonnet in her bag.
Turning from the window, she stopped, her breath catching.
The low fire in the fireplace cast a faint orange glow, its light barely touching the edge of the bed, partly illuminating the figure sitting at its edge. Gavin's luminous blue eyes stared back at her in the dark.
"How long have you been awake?" she asked.
Gavin said nothing as he watched her come closer. She could feel his eyes tracing her bare legs. When they went to sleep, she had taken off everything besides her t-shirt and panties. A fact he was much too tired before to appreciate, now he was wide awake—and he did.
Her nipples tightened in anticipation as she stopped in front of him. On the outside he looked calm and relaxed, but she knew the truth. She could see cords of muscles running along his forearm and the slight twitch in his jaw. He was like a mountain cat ready to strike at any second.
Her body hummed. Her pulse wouldn’t settle.
Excitement, joy, and a tinge of apprehension ran through her like a current.
She could hardly believe this was real; a secret want she had been too scared to ever let herself have was finally happening.
All she had to do was step forward, within range of the man ready to strike, and he would be all hers.
Taking her hands, he drew her closer until she was standing between his parted legs.
Wisps of hair from his thighs brushed against her legs, making her shiver.
He was so…big, she realized. For what felt like the first time she looked at him differently.
Not as her stepbrother. Not as the athlete.
But as the man who sat before her. His broad shoulders and thick arms. Even the rough hair on his legs seemed indecently male.
He was a powerful man who was staring at her with a hunger that made something deep and feminine in her tremble.
"Do you trust me?" His gaze rested on her, like a soft caress soothing her fear. Those deep-water blue eyes blazed from within as she nodded in reply. His lids lowered until his blue eyes were half-moons that pinned her to the spot with an unwavering stare. "Then take off your clothes."
Ebony swallowed, her body reacting to the command. Her fingers shook as she pulled her shirt up and over her head.
The hiss of air as Gavin sucked in a breath stopped her as she grabbed the elastic band of her underwear. As if under a thrall, his pupils dilated dark and wide as he drank in the sight of her breasts.
Ebony breathed, releasing a breath she wasn’t aware she had been holding. A bloom of confidence flowered inside of her as she read the want on his face. With one step she closed the gap between them, putting her breasts to his face.
Gavin's response was immediate.
She gasped and arched when he bent, took her nipple in his mouth and suckled. Ebony buried her hands in his hair.
He made a low, raw noise of satisfaction. "You have no idea how long I've wanted this."
Her mind went blank and her legs nearly gave out. All she could focus on was the feel of his tongue, flicking her nipple repeatedly as it moved back and forth, dulling her mind with need.
Pulling back, Gavin surged to his feet, his arms never leaving her. His mouth was across hers, swallowing her sighs of pleasure.
He bit down on her lip, sucking and pulling it between his teeth.
Ebony whimpered.
That’s all the invitation he needed. Gavin's hot relentless tongue found hers, devouring with animalistic urgency.
The feel of the bed against her back startled her.
Lying back, she watched as he grabbed her panties and stripped them off of her.
Completely naked, she looked up at him, his chest heaving as he grabbed her knees, gently spreading them apart.
With quick hands he shed his boxer briefs and kneeled before her, his cock standing high, stealing her focus and her nerves.
"Look at me," he commanded, leaning over her one hand planted like a steel post beside her head.
Ebony nodded, barely able to breathe as she felt the head of him brush against her sex.
Light from the fire emphasized the line of his jaw, and his eyes blazed. He said nothing as he slid a hand from her breast and guided it between her legs, until one, two, three fingers were slipping into the dampness there. Gavin's eyes closed and he groaned as she sucked in a breath.
"Shh," he soothed, lowering himself down and kissing the spot just beneath her ear. Those wondrous fingers worked their own magic on her, sliding into her to stroke and tease. "You can take it, sweetheart."
Her heart fluttered even as her pussy seemed to obey, the muscles relaxing under his touch as his fingers slid inside, pressing against the top and bottom walls. Ebony pushed her head back into the pillow at the feeling, her legs spreading wider for him.
"Look at you, taking me so well," he whispered in her ear, kissing her once more as if to say good job.
In and out.He stirred her inside and out, his thumb occasionally pressing and stroking her needy clit, spreading her juices across it.
"Gavin," she panted. He was driving her crazy. She needed more. More pressure, more anything.
Her fingers bit into his shoulders trying to pull him closer but he only watched her, his blown-out pupils drinking in every sigh and sound she made, a cruel smile tilting his lips.
Finally, he pulled back his hand and dropped his hips but he didn’t ease her torture, only prolonged it.
He rocked himself, the swollen rigid shaft rubbing against her slick folds until she was on the verge of tears.
Deep inside she ached for him, empty and needy, her body slick and ready for his invasion.
"Please, Gavin."
Shutting his eyes as if in pain from her pleas, he guided his cock to her entrance.
Ebony started at the blunt feel of him. Her heart slammed in her chest with sudden fear. He was far too big.
Sensing her fear, his lambent eyes crackled in the low light of the room, like an arrogant God staring down at his subject.
"You'll take me, won’t you, my love." He pushed the head through her entrance and Ebony gasped and tightened.
Lowering himself once more but keeping his hips still, Gavin kissed her. His tongue soothed her with slow delicious strokes even as his hips pushed punishingly forward inch by inch. “You can take a bit more, baby. Now. Take it all for me," he whispered.
A tear ran down her cheek as she let out a silent whimper into his mouth as he seated himself to his hilt.
Pulling back, Gavin kissed the fallen tear. "You took it all, my love. You’re okay,” he soothed. “I knew you could. You were made for me."
Ebony breathed, feeling him stretch her. So hot and full she felt the thrum of their pulses combine as one. Wrapping her arms around his neck, they both groaned a little as her legs shifted around his waist.
Then he began to move. Slow, meticulous thrusts seemed only designed to draw her voice deep from within her. She clutched his biceps as each push of his hips sent her mind spiraling, her nails digging into his skin. Every hard pump of his hips made her cry out.
Tucking his head against her shoulder and lifting her thighs higher he angled her so that every thrust seemed to hit at a downward angle, making her cry out more.
"Ebony," he groaned into her ear. His voice was rough and frenzied.
She could feel his big body tightening, his biceps hardening and his back going taut. His grunts and groans were nothing she had ever heard from him before, something carnal and unhinged. The sound of her name being whispered across her lips. It was maddening.
She wanted more. Her pussy tightened at the thought and Gavin growled out a curse in her ear.
Leaning back, he stared at her like a man possessed. Grabbing her knee, he angled her just the way he wanted her and pressed a thumb to her clit as he drove himself in and out of her.
A sharp cry escaped her throat as she went weak from the sudden onslaught of pleasure.
There was nothing she could ever compare it to as her body went taut and stars burst behind her eyelids.
Pleasure, otherworldly, washed over her taking her soul from her body before crashing it back down into her.
"Fuuck," Gavin groaned through gritted teeth.
With his head thrown back, his neck corded with the force of his release, his teeth bared to the ceiling.
Hot and thick he filled her full. His hips flexed, his muscles rippling beneath the shadows of the room before he finally braced himself again above her.
Needing to feel him against her, Ebony pulled at him until he settled half of his weight against her. His heavy body covered her. Naked and sweaty they lay there, both breathing hard.
Eventually his arm wrapped around her and pulled her tighter to him and his lips moved against her ear. "You’re mine. Until my last breath, Ebony Rosebank. I will never let you go."
They stayed in their cabin for four more days after that.
Tomorrow was technically the last day of the school trip but they both decided to stay behind for a little while longer while the others flew back.
Sitting on the couch, Ebony stared out the window to the snowy wonderland beyond and took a bite of her waffle.
Even though they had a butler and could order anything from the resort kitchen, Gavin had found a waffle maker in the kitchen and was using it as if he was feeding a small army.
Coming over, Gavin set a tower of waffles on the coffee table.
Horrified, she looked at him as he sat down next to her. "I seriously couldn’t eat another bite."
He laughed. Stuffing a huge bite in his mouth he grinned. "This is all for me. Unless," he paused and lifted a brow. His eyes slowly darkened with a look she had become quite familiar with the last few days. "You want me to dine on something else."
Her body responded immediately and she felt her nipples harden under her robe. For days they had made constant love learning every inch of each other’s bodies.
A shiver ran down her body and she shook her head. She was a little sore even after the nightly baths they took in the huge tub; she needed to rest.
Gavin nodded, his look promising he was ready whenever she was.
Morning slipped by, the sun growing brighter until it was already afternoon. They were still on the couch watching a show on the TV when she glanced at him
Sensing her gaze Gavin looked at her, his eyes searching her face. "What is it?
Ebony twisted her hands in her lap; she wanted to look away but she forced herself to keep her gaze steady, and took a breath. “I want to be clear. I don’t want this to be temporary. Not some sort of weird goal or kink you want fulfilled and then think better on it later.”
Gavin sat up so fast the cover they shared slid off of them, his expression flashing from confusion to disbelief.
“Ebony, my love…” His jaw clenched, the words rough as if torn out of him.
“I would laugh if that didn’t piss me off.
” His hand caught her chin, bringing her closer until he was inches away, forcing her to see the intensity burning in his bright eyes.
“Sweetheart, there aren’t words for what I feel for you.
It scares the shit out of me how much you own me.
Technically, from the day I met you I’ve lived for you in one way or another.
You became my world. I cannot imagine life without you.
To be blunt about it, if you go, I’m following very closely behind. ”
Her breath stuttered, eyes widening as she sat upright too. “Don’t say that.”
“I need you to understand how serious I am, Ebbs.” His voice dropped to a whisper, but it carried the weight of a vow.
He leaned in until his lips brushed hers and she couldn’t help but turn into him more.
She kissed him, enjoying the way his eyes darkened.
“I need you to know just how fucking crazy I am for you.”
Her throat tightened, emotions choking her. She silenced him the only way she could, and pressed her lips fully to his.
The kiss deepened until she was breathless. Outside the sun hid behind the clouds and the snow fell once again. She barely noticed when he shifted, lifting his phone with the other hand, angling it in front of them.
"What are you doing?" she asked between his kisses down her neck.
Her hair was wild and she was in her robe. It wouldn’t be the best photo of her.
"Immortalizing the moment when you became mine."
The shutter clicked, sealing the moment and binding their future forever.
