ELLE
Waking up next to Zodiac felt right. I didn’t care if it was in his bed or mine, we melted together in the best way. I could have remained next to him for another hour if my bladder didn’t force me to tiptoe to the bathroom.
Sutter would be up in an hour. I could return to bed and nap until then. Or I could wake up Zodiac and have a little fun. My pussy had recovered after a short break and was now purring for attention.
Returning to bed, I found Zodiac awake and stretched out on his back. I thought about how well behaved he was around Sutter last night. He even kept his cussing and pussy talk to a minimum. His good behavior deserved a reward.
I slid off my clothes and climbed over him in bed.
Still half-asleep, Zodiac didn’t immediately make a move when my hair brushed across his chest. I kissed his jaw before finding his lips.
When he reached up to stroke my throat, his knuckles grazed my nipples.
Oh, boy, did that wake up the sleepyhead!
His soft touch left goosebumps across my flesh. I slid my body up and down his before my fingers reached for his impressive dick.
Zodiac guided me upward over him so his lips could wrap around my nipple. The flesh tightened in his mouth. My pussy clenched around his fingers testing my wetness.
“You’re the only man who can make me feel like this,” I whispered as his cock filled my body.
I didn’t want to hold back with Zodiac today. He would be gone soon, and my disinterest had never been convincing anyway.
Zodiac’s hands wrapped around my hips, guiding me to a pace that left him groaning.
My right palm rested on his chest. The fingers on my left hand danced around his face.
I couldn’t believe how sexy Zodiac was. His every feature made me ache with need.
I was falling for him harder than was healthy, but I couldn’t help myself.
His knuckle caressed my clit, leaving me lightheaded from the pleasure. Moving with more purpose, I held his gaze and remembered his every feature for when he left Little Memphis.
Breathless from my orgasm, I gripped his wrists to steady myself as I rolled my hips faster. My eyes slammed shut as the pleasure overwhelmed me.
“Elle,” Zodiac said in a commanding voice.
I opened my eyes and met his gaze. With the hazy lighting in the room, his icy blue eyes were difficult to read.
“Zodiac,” I whispered back when I couldn’t figure out why he said my name.
A smile warmed his face. “You’re bound to break my dick if you don’t ease up.”
I looked between my legs and realized I had his cock in a death vise. Relaxing my pussy, I smiled at him.
“My pleasure might be the end of you, Zodiac Bondi.”
“It’d be worth it,” he replied in a softer tone than I expected. “Let’s change positions.”
“I like being on top.”
“You keep acting like you might fall over.”
“Swaying is me being sexy,” I insisted as he sat up and rolled me onto my back. “But if you need to be in control, I’m okay with applying zero effort.”
Zodiac kissed me as his cock filled my pussy again. “I’m close, but I can’t concentrate when you look like you’ll fall off the bed.”
“I’m sorry, lover,” I murmured and stroked his chest. “Make yourself feel as incredible as you made me feel.”
Zodiac moved with the confidence of a man who knew his body. I hoped I’d someday understand how to make him come apart.
Once Zodiac got me revved up again, he rode my orgasm to his own. The pleasure was incredible, and his moans made me feel like a sex god.
As soon as we caught our breath, I was ready for a nap. Rather than sleep, I kissed Zodiac and rolled out of bed.
“You get up too early,” he grumbled while I went to the bathroom to wash away the sex smell. “Let your parents deal with the kid today.”
“No,” I murmured as I appeared from the bathroom and strutted naked past him on my way to the closet. “I need Sutter to know life hasn’t gone crazy just because you slept over. Plus, I ought to fill up your belly for your trip back to Baton Rouge.”
“I can come back to Little Memphis in a few days.”
“Or I could visit you,” I suggested and pulled on my sweatpants. “I would like to hang out at your clubhouse and get to know your people.”
“Why?” he asked, immediately suspicious.
“I have a crush on one of your guys,” I taunted. “I’m using you to get closer to him.”
Zodiac chuckled. “Bitch.”
“Yeah, he’s a swell guy,” I said, sitting topless next to Zodiac and stroking his hair. “You should want your clubmate and me to be happy.”
Zodiac ignored my lies and insisted, “I don’t want you in Baton Rouge.”
No longer teasing, I pointed out, “You spent time in my life last night. Now, I want to do the same with yours.”
“No.”
Before Zodiac could fondle my bare chest, I stood up and slid on my bra and shirt.
“I might come down there when Nova does. Isn’t your boy York moving into her old house soon?”
“Just stay here, and I’ll visit you.”
“No,” I said and tugged on a pair of socks. “Are you planning to stay naked?”
“Maybe.”
Brushing my fingers through his hair, I smiled at his smug expression. “Do you want to stay here longer?”
“Doesn’t matter what I want. I need to get back to Baton Rouge and check out things.”
“I’ll miss you,” I said and stroked his jaw. “But I’ll get over it. I’m very resilient.”
Zodiac rolled his eyes. “I think I’ll sleep for a while. Come get me when breakfast is ready.”
“Oh, I understand,” I murmured tenderly and stood up. “You want to be alone with your feelings. I’ll let you get yourself under control.”
Zodiac chuckled at my taunts and watched me leave the room. I carried Hobbs upstairs and freed him in the yard. Sutter was out of bed and brushing his teeth when I came back downstairs.
“Are you sad?” Sutter asked.
“No, just sleepy.”
“Did Zodiac hog the bed?”
“You know me, baby. I like to stretch out and keep the covers for myself. He ended up sleeping in the corner like a dog.”
Sutter snickered at my lies. We walked upstairs, where I made egg muffin sandwiches. Zodiac showed up in time to join us in the backyard. We ate on the porch and watched Hobbs sniff the yard.
I couldn’t help imagining us doing this a year from now with the baby in the mix.
“Your mom’s getting sad,” Zodiac told Sutter. “I better head out before her tears show up.”
As we finished breakfast, I asked, “Are you sure you want to ride back all alone?”
“Exile is waiting to ride to Baton Rouge until it’s time to move York into the house.”
“I plan to go with Exile,” I told Sutter.
Zodiac grunted, “No.”
I smiled at Sutter. “He’s so bossy.”
Zodiac fell silent until he got ready to ride home. Sutter and I stood with him out front by his motorcycle.
Though Zodiac was a badass, I wished he weren’t riding alone. I felt overly protective of the gorgeous asshole.
Zodiac eyed Sutter. “Better shield your eyes, boy. I’m about to suck on your mom’s tongue.”
“Gross,” Sutter said and hurried into the house.
Zodiac’s kiss felt like more than a goodbye. I sensed he was closing himself off again. Staring into his eyes, I wondered if he would undo all the progress we made over the last several days.
Trust wasn’t easy for a man like Zodiac, but I hoped he knew his heart was safe with me.
