Chapter 29
Twenty-Nine
SARAH
Theo wore an expression that must have said “Don’t even bloody think about coming near us” because we managed to escape the library and cut through the hall to the staff elevator without anyone stopping us.
The members weren’t supposed to use this lift, but I knew if we tried to use any other stairwell to get to his room, we’d be stopped by some guest or other.
Inside the lift, Theo pressed me against the wall and kissed me until my lips were bruised. We were barely aware of anything as we reached his floor and stumbled, kissing and laughing, toward his room.
“Someone’s going to find that condom and wonder who was naughty tonight.” Theo chuckled as he let us into his room.
There was nowhere to get rid of the used prophylactic but to wrap it in tissues we found on the library desk and put it in the bin. As an ex-housekeeper, I felt bad about that and promised myself I’d sneak down in the morning and take care of it. “Oh, they’ll know.”
“How so?”
“There are cameras everywhere.” I blushed at the thought of security having seen what we’d done.
Theo gaped. “Are you joking?”
I shook my head. “I’m sure they must have told you that when you became a member. All public spaces on the estate have cameras to protect the guests and staff.”
“So … you knew security could see us fucking?”
I bit my lip. “I forgot. In the heat of the moment.”
“Are you … bothered? Because I can talk to Walker.”
Blushing, I shook my head. “It was exciting.”
Theo looked ready to combust. “Fuck, you turn me on, woman.”
“Back at you.”
He reached for my hand, threading his fingers through mine. “Are we okay, Sarah?”
“We’re okay. I’m sorry if I overreacted.”
“No.” He tugged me to him. “After what you told me … you didn’t overreact.”
“Forget it.” I brushed my fingers over his soft lips. “Forget her.” Fear still rode the longing, but longing won out as I whispered, “Make love to me like you promised.”
He swallowed hard, and I swear my heart grew at the sight of his expression. He looked at me like he loved me. Half of me wanted him to say it and the other half was terrified he just might. At that moment, I didn’t want to analyze the latter.
Theo let go of my hand as he reached the bed and turned to face me. Holding my gaze, making my body hot without saying a word or touching me, he quickly removed his tuxedo jacket and bow tie and unbuttoned his shirt.
He whipped them all off, throwing them on the chair in the corner.
I would never get tired of looking at his beautiful body.
All lean, solid muscle. I followed the lines of his six-pack to the sexy cut of his hips, my cheeks blazing even though we’d done this many times.
But then … we’d never expressly admitted we were “making love” whenever it happened.
I had been waiting for him to drop his trousers and let me ogle the rest of him, but instead, he sat down on the edge of the bed and looked up at me. “I’m yours, little darling. I can take the lead here or you can do what you want with me.”
I licked my lips, eyeing him as he waited patiently for me to decide.
As I drank in his half-nakedness, I shivered with need.
“Take off your trousers,” I ordered.
With an affectionate gleam, Theo stood and unbuttoned them. He pushed them and his boxer briefs down, his arousal throbbing to attention as he kicked himself free of his clothes.
Wanting to be close to him again, to be touching, to be connected, I kicked off my shoes and shimmied out of the dress. I stood in only my underwear.
Theo’s gaze turned hot, smoldering, his cock growing impossibly harder. “My God, you have no idea how stunning you are, do you?”
It still surprised me that he thought so, but I accepted it. I believed him. It just made me happy that he felt for me what I felt for him. “So are you.”
He gave me a smile beneath lowered lashes. “Thank you, darling.”
I shivered, looking my fill. Wanting to be filled, while keeping in mind Theo wanted this to be lovemaking, not fucking. And so did I. We needed that emotional connection too.
I gestured to the bed. “Lie down on your back.”
Shooting me a boyish grin, Theo did as I commanded, his arousal straining between his thighs for attention.
I approached him slowly, and I kept the feminine satisfaction from my expression at the way his body tensed with anticipation.
Getting onto the bed on my hands and knees, I held his gaze for a few seconds, noting his breathing was as shallow as mine. Then my gaze dropped to his cock.
“Sarah,” he implored hoarsely.
I crawled up his legs and took him in my mouth. Back at the cottage, I’d done this with him for my first time ever. And I realized with utmost certainty that I never wanted to do this act with anyone else. I couldn’t imagine wanting to.
I loved making Theo lose his mind with passion.
His scorching hardness passed between my lips, and I felt his thighs tense under my fingertips.
My tongue trailed along a vein on the underside of his cock and his breathing stuttered before seeming to stop entirely as I began to suck, bobbing my head so my mouth slid excruciatingly slow up and down his length.
“Sarah,” he groaned, his fingers tangling in my hair. “My love, fuck, my love, your mouth. Your mouth is a fucking gift.”
I smiled around him and took him deeper.
Then his fingers clenched in my hair. “Stop, darling. Stop. I want to come inside you again, not your mouth.”
With a moan, I released him and gazed at him from under my lashes. My nipples were stiff and wet slicked between my thighs.
But I forced myself to be patient. I kissed the sexy cut of definition in his right hip, my lips tracing a path along his torso as I moved up his body.
Knees on either side of his hips, I shivered as I felt his cock brush against my inner thigh.
Taking his right nipple in my mouth, my tongue flicking, my moan muffled against his body as I felt his rough hands cup my breasts.
I rubbed into him, eager for his touch. When his thumbs brushed them, I shuddered, panting against his chest.
Theo made a pleased sound as he pinched my nipples between his fingers and thumbs. I barely had time to recover from the streaks of white-hot lightning that shot between my thighs before his right hand coasted down my stomach.
As two fingers slid into my slick heat, my back arched, giving his left hand better access to my breast, and my hips surged against his right.
I panted, nearly breathless. “Theo.” My eyes flew open, and he watched me intensely as he brought me to climax.
I shuddered against his hand, pulsing and throbbing around his fingers, my inner muscles trying to pull him in deeper.
“You’re so beautiful when you come. If I could, I’d spend every day of every year just watching you come, Sarah McCulloch.”
I moved over him, my nipples brushing his chest as I braced my hands on either side of his head and kissed him hungrily as I rubbed myself over his cock. Breaking the kiss, I whispered, “I’m on the pill.”
“Fuck, yes.” Theo nodded, looking dazed with desire. “I got a checkup before I came to Gairloch. I’m clean. My results are on my phone if you want.” The worry in his eyes filled me with tenderness. I knew it was a vulnerable subject, and I wanted to reassure him.
“I believe you.” I smiled affectionately as I took him in hand and guided him between my legs. Then I slammed down on him, and we both cried out, Theo’s hips jerking up in reaction.
We found our rhythm easily and with my hands braced on the bed beside his thighs, I leaned back slightly so his cock thrust into me at the most delicious angle. I moved slowly, building toward orgasm.
My gaze never left Theo’s face as I moved.
He made me feel sexy and adored. I loved the way he stared into my eyes, showing me everything he felt, the way his gaze darkened on my breasts as they trembled while I rode him.
His hands gripped my hips, his fingernails digging in, keeping me moving at a languid pace.
His features tightened as the heat between us increased and a light sheen of sweat covered our skin.
“You feel spectacular,” Theo huffed. “I feel like we’re one.” He sat up with ease, shifting our angle so he hit me deep in that exquisite spot. I gasped and shivered around him. He slid his hand between us, feeling where he moved inside me. “Connected. I belong inside you.”
He did. But I was afraid to admit it out loud. So I kissed him, pouring everything I felt into the kiss as I moved over him, faster, harder, our mouths meeting and parting, meeting and parting.
“Come for me, my love. That’s it, darling,” he praised gruffly. “Come around my cock like a good girl.”
Lights exploded behind my lids as my orgasm shook through my entire body. My muscles clenched around Theo, wave after wave of pleasure pulsing around him.
Suddenly, I found myself moving as Theo flipped me to my back.
My eyes flew open as he pressed me into the mattress, holding my hands imprisoned above my head.
His features were strained with uncontrolled need, and as he crushed his mouth against mine, he began to stroke deep inside me, his movements rough and hard.
He groaned into my mouth, the noise vibrating through my whole body, and I felt the stirring of another orgasm.
When his lips left mine, I stared up in wonderment, our gasps seeming to echo all around us as I pushed up against his thrusts. He let go of one of my arms, his hand disappearing between our joined bodies, and as soon as his thumb pressed down on my clit, I flew apart, my scream filling the room.
Satisfaction hardened Theo’s expression seconds before his lips parted on a shout of release. His hips juddered as he came, his shout turning into a long groan as he ground himself into me, prolonging his climax.
His arms trembled as he continued to hold himself over me. Then he bowed his head against my forehead. “I … I love you, Sarah. I’m so in love with you, I can hardly bear it.”
