Chapter 14 #4

“Mmm, your girl,” she said with a sigh. “I like the sound of that. Now how about you let me up to shower so we can go see Marion and get everything done. Maybe we’ll have a little time before the party to…get to know each other better?”

His chuckle rumbled through her. “That sounds like a brilliant idea to me.”

Daisy took a leisurely shower, used soap that smelled like him and let the massaging showerhead work the aches out of her muscles.

The bathroom door opened. “You gonna stay in there all day?”

“I’m thinking about it.”

“Want some company?”

“I’d love some, but you’re all ready to go.”

The shower door opened to him in all his naked glory. “So?”

The sight of him in a whirl of steam made her legs go wobbly. She held out a hand to him.

He stepped into the shower with her and had his arms around her almost as quickly as he’d shed his clothes. “Good to know you can get naked that fast.”

“It all depends on the incentive, and you make for some pretty sweet incentive.” His hands and lips were everywhere, setting her on fire with the smooth glide over wet skin. “Ever done it in the shower?”

Daisy shook her head because she didn’t trust herself to speak articulately just then.

“First time for everything,” he said, pressing her against the tile and lifting her so her legs were wrapped around his hips. “Is this okay?”

As the hot water beat down upon them, Daisy curled her arms around his neck. “It’s very okay.”

He nudged at her with the tip of his erection. “How about this? Still okay?”

“Very, very okay.”

With the tilt of his hips, he slid inside her. “And this?” he asked, pressing openmouthed kisses to her neck that set her blood to racing.

“Very, very, very okay, but it could be better.”

His husky, sexy laugh made her smile as he let her slide down onto his full length.

“Still good?”

“Mmm, amazing. But…”

“If you say it could be better, I’m going to spank your ass.”

The words, which were rumbled against her ear, were like a live wire traveling through her body.

“I’m sorry, Daisy. I shouldn’t have said that. I told you I’d never hit you, and I meant it.”

“I knew you were playing, and I liked it.”

David groaned and tightened his hold on her bottom. “God, Daisy, you’re making me crazy.”

“Be crazy,” she said. “I swear I can take it.” Gripping his hair, she dragged him into a combustible kiss and let him carry her away in a storm of passion. While they were pressed together against the wall of the shower, he showed her what she’d been missing with every other guy who wasn’t him.

She held on tight as he drove them to an explosive finish.

He kissed her the entire time and drew back from her only when the need to breathe took over. “Wow,” he whispered, dropping his head to her shoulder as he continued to push into her in small movements that triggered a second, less powerful orgasm. “That was incredible. You are incredible.”

“So are you.”

He raised his head to meet her gaze. “We’re pretty incredible together.”

Nodding, she kissed him again. An astonishing array of emotions passed through her heart in that tender moment. The predominant emotion was love, as pure and true as anything she’d felt before. She loved him.

Only when the water finally turned cold did they disentangle, laughing in their haste to escape the chilly blast.

David grabbed towels and wrapped her in one before putting the other around his waist. “From hot to cold in two seconds flat.”

“At least it didn’t happen a minute sooner. That might’ve put a damper on things.”

He put his hands on her shoulders and kissed her again. “Nothing could’ve put a damper on that.”

She put her arms around him and held on tight. “You definitely saw to it that I’ll never forget my first shower sex.”

“Good, then my work here is finished. For now.” With one last squeeze, he let her go so they could get dressed.

Daisy, who was normally shy about being completely naked in front of a man, dropped her towel like it was no big deal to stand before him in the altogether. After this morning, it seemed perfectly natural to be naked with him.

He watched her intently, his gaze moving from her face to her breasts and then back up again. “You know, Marion is going to be home all day, and if we went there a little later, it would be okay.”

Daisy slapped his hands away as he reached for her breasts. “Marion first. More of this later.”

“Why?”

“We’re all clean right now, and we used all the hot water.”

“So?”

She picked up the clothes he’d discarded from the floor, pushed them into his arms and sent him out the door.

“You’re no fun,” he said through the closed door.

“Yes, I am.”

“No, you’re not.”

“I’ll prove otherwise as soon as we get back from Marion’s.”

“Promises, promises.”

Daisy smiled as she got dressed. She smiled as she brushed her teeth, which wasn’t as easy to do as one might think, and she smiled through coffee and breakfast of toast and cereal.

He made her laugh, he made her think, he made her feel safe and treasured, and he made her want all the things she’d thought would never happen to her.
