Chapter 17
CHAPTER SEVENTEEN
Kelli was torn. She was kind of freaking out that Brant had tried to burn Flash’s apartment down. But she couldn’t help noticing that Flash seemed different since leaving Aces. More focused. More touchy-feely. She liked that last part. A hell of a lot.
She’d been with men before. She wasn’t a virgin.
But none had made her feel the way Flash did.
As if her skin was too tight, her body temp too high from the constant blushing.
And right now, she was fidgety and she couldn’t keep her eyes off him.
As he drove, she saw the muscles in his arms flexing, which made her think about how they’d do the same thing as he propped himself above her.
When he glanced her way, she saw something in his gaze that hadn’t been there before. A heated interest he was no longer trying to hide. And those looks shot straight through her. Making her embarrassingly wet between her legs.
She should be worried about Smiley. Should be trying to come up with a plan for what they’d do if Brant found them and confronted them. But instead, all she could think about was later tonight…when she climbed into bed with Flash.
Should she make the first move? Should she come right out and tell him she wanted him? What if he wasn’t ready for more physical intimacy? What if all his declarations earlier were just a heat-of-the-moment kind of thing?
She mentally shook her head. No. That wasn’t Flash’s style. She hadn’t known him long, but if he said something, he meant it.
And just like that, she was turned on again.
By the time they were walking up to Smiley’s apartment hand-in-hand, Kelli still wasn’t sure what would happen when they got inside.
She knew what she wanted to happen, but she also felt bad that she couldn’t stop thinking about sex when Flash was probably worried about his apartment almost burning down.
When the door to the apartment closed behind them, Kelli felt awkward all of a sudden. She was still full from the amazing burger she’d had at Aces, so killing time before bed by cooking something was out. They could watch television, but she wasn’t really in the mood.
Then Flash, being Flash, took control. Didn’t give her time to try to come up with something to say or do.
He abruptly turned and backed her up against a wall in the small living area.
Then he lowered his head and kissed her.
Kelli swore she saw stars—and just like that, her libido, which was already in overdrive, shot even higher. His kiss was like someone had lit a thousand candles inside her. One second she was barely managing to hold back her lust for this man, and the next she was burning from the inside out.
She gave as good as she got. Kelli wasn’t a passive participant in the kiss. She grabbed Flash’s hair and held him tightly as their tongues dueled. She hitched one leg around his hip and rubbed herself against him as best she could as they kissed.
Without a word, Flash pulled back, stared at her for a beat, then reached for the hem of his shirt.
Yes . Kelli was all in. Without thinking about her size, or awkward moments when she’d gotten naked in front of past lovers, she copied Flash’s movements and took off her own shirt.
Then it was a race to get undressed. Flash’s hands were at the fastening of his pants and they were around his ankles in seconds.
Kelli giggled when he almost tripped over his feet because he hadn’t taken his boots off before attempting to kick off his jeans. While he was sorting that, she managed to get her own pants and shoes off. She was reaching for the clasp of her bra when Flash straightened.
He was completely nude, and Kelli stared at his dick in awe.
She couldn’t believe he’d been hiding that monster in his pants. She’d seen that he had an impressive bulge in his swim trunks, and she’d felt it under her ass while sitting on his lap in the tube on the river, but seeing him erect was…daunting.
“Let me,” Flash said in a husky tone, as he reached around her for the clasp of her bra.
His dick brushed against her belly and left a smear of wetness that made her legs weak. She wanted this man. Right now. If she didn’t get him inside her, she was going to die.
Okay, she was being dramatic, but she didn’t even care.
The second her bra loosened, Kelli shrugged her shoulders forward and let the damn thing fall to the floor between them. Then she dropped to her knees before Flash could move and wrapped her fingers around his cock.
“Holy fuck,” he groaned, pushing one hand into her hair and bracing himself on the wall behind her with the other.
Kelli didn’t hesitate, she opened her mouth and took him inside.
His fingers tightened in her hair as she bobbed her head up and down.
He felt amazing against her tongue, the musky taste of his precome filling her mouth.
The knowledge that she, Kelli Colbert, was turning on this amazing specimen of a man filled her with confidence.
She could feel her pussy weeping, readying itself for him.
“Easy, Kelli. We have all the time in the world,” Flash murmured above her.
But she didn’t want easy. She wanted hard and fast. Desperate. Exactly how she felt.
Her free hand went around Flash’s body and gripped one of his ass cheeks, as she did her best to give him the most amazing blowjob he’d ever had. Her reward was the tortured groan that left his lips and another tangy spurt of precome. She moaned around him at the taste.
“Fuck, woman!” Flash said, right before he reached down and grabbed her by the upper arms, pulling her off the floor.
Kelli let out a squeak of complaint. She wasn’t done. She wasn’t a fan of swallowing, but for this man, she would do just about anything. But apparently that wasn’t on his agenda for the night.
Feeling giddy about how easily he handled her, Kelli held on as he swung her up into his arms and carried her over to the kitchen table. Thankfully, Smiley’s apartment was devoid of many personal touches, and the table was bare.
The wood was cold under her ass, even through her underwear.
Flash put a hand in the middle of her chest and gently pushed her backward. Kelli lay down and arched her back as he reached for her underwear.
She prepared to lift her bottom, thinking he was going to slide the cotton over her hips—but to her surprise, his arm muscles bunched as he ripped it off her instead.
That was so damn hot, Kelli was panting. “Yes,” she muttered, spreading her legs apart. The table was the perfect height, and Flash’s cock was lined up with her pussy. She waited for him to take her. She was ready. More than ready. She wanted this. Needed it. Needed him .
It felt as if she’d waited forever for this moment, when in reality she’d really just met this man not too long ago. But what they’d been through together had forged a bond that was stronger than any she’d ever felt before.
“So fucking beautiful,” Flash said, as his gaze devoured her from her head to her toes. He leaned over a little and palmed her ample breasts. “I’m gonna spend a year worshiping these beauties. Gonna suck and lick and maybe get some clamps.”
Kelli’s pussy spasmed. She’d never been interested in anything like sex toys or pain with her sex, but as Flash pinched her nipples, the zings of arousal shooting down between her legs made her think she’d been missing out.
“But right now, all I can think of is getting inside you.”
“Yes,” Kelli breathed.
To her surprise, Flash suddenly turned and walked away from the table.
She frowned, confused. Was he…leaving?
She watched as he hurried across the room, turning away to pick up his pants and rifle through the pockets. Then he dropped them and stalked back toward her, his cock still hard, bobbing in front of him like a flag waving in the wind.
He reached for his dick, and it was then she realized he’d retrieved a condom and was now putting it on.
Honestly, Kelli was surprised. With all his talk about knocking her up, she kind of thought he might “accidentally” forget to bring up the subject of birth control. But he hadn’t even asked if she was on anything. He simply did the right thing, making sure she was protected.
When he finished with the condom, he frowned when he realized she’d closed her legs. Forcefully shoving her knees apart, he grabbed her and pulled her ass to the edge of the table. Falling onto her back, Kelli smiled up at him.
But he wasn’t looking at her face—his gaze was glued between her legs. “So wet,” he murmured, running a thumb up her slit, ending up on her clit and rubbing it somewhat roughly.
Kelli loved this. She loved how rough he was being. But he wasn’t hurting her. Not in the least.
He showed no mercy as he strummed her clit. She bucked, but Flash put a hand on her belly and held her down as he brought her to the edge of orgasm faster than she thought possible.
“Come for me,” he ordered. “You’re wet, but I need you soaking. Dripping. I can’t be gentle this first time, and I don’t want to hurt you. You’re tiny, and I’m not.”
Kelli choked back a laugh. Had anyone in her entire life told her she was tiny? No.
But she had no time to contradict him. To tell him she could take whatever he wanted to give her. Because she was orgasming, her entire body shaking as pleasure overwhelmed her.
And while she was still coming, Flash pushed her legs even farther apart, notched his cock between her legs, and entered her with one hard thrust.
Flash felt as if he was burning up from the inside out.
He couldn’t hold back from kissing Kelli the second the door shut behind them.
He wasn’t expecting more than a kiss there in the living area before he planned on taking her hand and leading her to the bedroom, where he would hopefully make long, sweet, slow love to her for the first time.
But she obviously had other ideas.
