Chapter 29 #3
“I’d slip your underwear off with my teeth, let your cock slap against my face until you're begging for it. Then I’ll pin you in place with my hands and knees, tasting your skin, letting my tongue map out the thick veins branching along your cock, slow, wet licks”
I let a groan escape me, shameless and uncontrolled. I press my head deeper into the pillow. My hips piston faster into my fist, picturing Yosh beneath me, his fingers digging bruises into my hips as he takes my aching cock deep in his mouth.
“I wish you were here right now. Doing exactly that.”
“I am. Believe me, Tom. Right now, I’m there. I’m with you.”
My chest rises rapidly, heart pounding as I imagine him right in front of me, his mouth and tongue exploring, tasting, claiming.
“Fist your cock like it’s mine you’re holding,” I command. “Slow first, then harder. Faster. Show me how much you want me. How I make your balls full and heavy like no one else does.”
The sound he makes drags me closer to the edge. Our rhythm picks up, syncing without effort, breaths turning ragged, spilling into each other’s ears.
“Tom, fuck…” he gasps.
“Come for me.”
I feel my own release rise quickly, unstoppable. “Come for me, love.”
A desperate whimper, it sends me over the edge with him, my cock pulsing in my hand as I release into the towel.
My breath is caught somewhere in my throat as my orgasm crashes through me in wave after wave.
No one's ever ruined me like this with just their voice. It’s terrifying, it’s exactly what I want.
Our breathing slows.
We remain silent until his warm voice comes again inside my ear.
“You have no idea how badly I needed this.”
“Oh, I think I do. Believe me, I felt it.”
I shift a little beneath the sheets, turning onto my side and pulling the pillow close, kind of wishing it was him.
“You alright?”
He chuckles faintly. “Shouldn’t that be my line?”
“Consider the tables turned. I get to check on you too.”
A sigh follows. “I’m good. Better than good.”
I smile, pressing my face into the pillow because I want to scream.
“Glad to hear it.” I say.
Another quiet pause. I’ve never done this after, staying in the moment with someone.
Getting dressed in a rush and legging it has always been standard for me. With Yosh, it feels more than I ever imagined. Essential, even.
“You still there?” he asks eventually.
“Yeah,” I murmur. “Just thinking.”
“About?”
“How much I wish you were actually here right now.”
“Me too. But If I were there, I’d keep draining you until sunrise.”
I laugh quietly. “Is that a promise?”
“Careful, Tom, you might get attached.”
Then I say the unthinkable. “Too late for warnings, Yosh.”
“Good,” he tells me. “Because same.”
I swallow. “Did you manage to get some rest today?”
“Yeah, I slept most of the day. Only went out for yoga late afternoon, then straight back to bed. With you gone, I had plenty of free time.”
“I figured that’s what you needed after everything that happened yesterday, that’s partly why I left, to give you space.”
I hear a soft hum in my ear, “And yet you call me not wasting any time.”
“But did it hurt?”
That gets a laugh out of him. “You're impossible with that sharp tongue, McKenna. Makes me want to strangle and kiss you at the same time.”
“Sounds like a dangerous kind of foreplay. Count me in.”
“Stop it. Don’t…”
I grin, imagining him fighting it. I’m not much better, not with that sensual voice right in my ear.
I could push and beg him to come over to the villa, have him climb over the fence like we did at Arcadia the other day. Calvin’s dogs are useless guards anyway. We could make love all night.
That would be so perfect, but I’m learning to let the moment be enough.
“How was the studio?” he asks, strategically changing the subject.
“Great, Yosh. Everything I've been scribbling down these past few weeks, hell, you've seen those notes, there were piles of them. I finally brought them to life. It might even be one of the best works I’ve done in my career.”
“Oh my god, I need to hear it! Will you let me hear it?”
“You’ll be the first, I promise.”
A comfortable silence settles between us. There's still something I need to say before we end this call.
“Yosh…”
“Hmm?”
“I want to apologize again for what happened yesterday. That wasn’t me. I need you to know that. So, again, I’m really sorry.”
He sighs. “It’s okay. Loyalty means a lot to you, Terrence knows that. He knows where to aim. You’ve been doing a lot of deep digging these past weeks, so it makes sense your emotions are all over the place.”
He pauses. “And I’m not making things easier, I know that. If I were in your place, I might’ve snapped too.”
“No. It's not an excuse for my temper.”
“Don't be so hard on yourself, Tom. We're good.”
He can’t see it, but I smile, my eyes a little wet.
This kind of honesty? It’s not what I’m used to. I feel everything all at once, and it’s a lot.
“I’m heading to town tomorrow. I’ve got an appointment with a contractor at two. She’s coming to check out the house, give me a quote. What if I pick you up afterward?”
That has me bouncing like a puppy going after a tennis ball.
I was already planning to go back to Arcadia, even though I could easily spend the entire week locked in the studio. But let’s say I’m choosing creative inspiration over productivity right now.
“Alright, do I need to send you the address?” I ask.
“Mind sending me coordinates?”
“Oh, piss off, Yosh.” We both laugh.
“Now that we can finally drop the stupid act,” I add, “I’ve got to admit, you might be the biggest tease I’ve ever met.”
“Strangle and kiss,” he whispers softly, like it's our new secret language. I bite my lip, resting both hands on my spinning stomach.
“I don’t want to hang up,” I whisper back.
“Me neither.”
“How about we say goodnight?”
“I can live with that.”
“Alright then. Sleep well, love.”
“Sleep well, Sapphire,” he replies dreamily.
There it is again. He called me that.
Sapphire.
Fuck me, I like it.
What kind of alternate universe is this, McKenna?
Still smiling, I pull the earbuds out and plop them back into their case, then toss the phone beside my pillow. I don’t hang up.
My eyelids grow heavy, the whirlwind of thoughts becomes nothing but background noise. I fall into a deep, dreamless sleep.
