Chapter 16 #4
“No, let me finish. Yes, sleeping together would obviously be a stupid idea. But I still maintain that a little sex wouldn’t hurt our relationship. We’d be less tense when we see each other. I’d be less irritable, you’d be a little more relaxed, and fuck, we both want it!”
Lilly didn’t argue. She simply stared at him, listening to her pounding heart.
It was true. She wanted him. She missed sex. She hadn’t felt this alive in ages. But…
“It’s a bad idea.”
“But it would be so damn good,” he murmured, leaning forward and gently kissing her neck before moving down her chin and behind her ear. “It would feel like we were finishing what we started ten years ago — and once we’ve had enough, we’ll just stop.”
She was breathing heavily because he was talking nonsense. Nothing about it would be easy, but she couldn’t think straight. She wanted it so badly, yet, at the same time… “Austin. You don’t even like me.”
He leaned back slightly and gazed into her eyes.
“Oh, Lilly. I don’t have to like you to let you come.
I don’t have to forget my anger to imagine myself burying myself deep inside you until you don’t remember a single word in this world except my name.
It would just be sex. Because we both want it, and it’s becoming unbearable for me not to give in to the desire.
” His fingers slid down her thighs and under her dress, moving higher and higher.
“I’ll stop if you say no, Lilly.” He traced the edge of her panties, kissed her neck and collarbone again until she trembled with anticipation.
And then he paused. “And I’ll keep going if you say yes… ”
“Yes.”
It didn’t matter. Nothing else mattered. She wanted him. She wanted it. Tomorrow she would do all the thinking.
He smiled, pushed her underwear aside, and slipped his index finger underneath.
Lilly gasped and clung to his shoulders as he languidly circled her center, sending jolts of pleasure through her lower body.
“Kiss me,” he whispered roughly, and she obliged.
She lowered her lips to his and slipped her tongue between them, just as he plunged his finger deep inside her.
And she melted. Her insides liquefied as she sank against him before he pulled back and added a second finger that made her see stars. All this while his thumb massaged her clit.
“Fuck,” she gasped.
“Soon,” he promised. “I want to see you come on my fingers.”
He increased the pressure and quickened his rhythm, thrusting his tongue into her mouth every time he fingered her hard, until her leg muscles trembled and the heat in her lower body grew unbearable.
Her head fell back with a whimper, unable to stop herself from riding his hand. She spread her legs wider and sank even deeper onto his fingers until she felt his knuckles and he pressed his thumb firmly against her center.
She came in long, sweet waves, his name on her lips.
But Austin didn’t stop. He didn’t let go, but continued thrusting into her, prolonging her orgasm with his thumb, so that she kept contracting around him.
“What a waste that no one’s seen this in five years,” he whispered, sounding both awestruck and greedy.
“No one’s seen this,” she gasped, feeling strangely empty as he withdrew his fingers. “And it’s really not fair that you’re good at this too!”
“At what?” he asked roughly in her ear. “Making you come? I haven’t even started yet.
” The next moment, he pressed his fingers into her hips and pulled her hard onto his lap, right onto his enormous erection, which was struggling against the zipper of his jeans.
He rocked his hips slightly back and forth, the stiff fabric rubbing the exact right spot each time.
“And this is in the car,” he whispered, tugging at her earlobe with his teeth. “I work best against a wall.”
Lilly gasped at his words as her fingers slid down to his belt. “Is that so? And how good are you with a string and bolts?”
He laughed hoarsely in her ear as he ran his hand over her shoulders and breasts, their nipples pressing hard against her bra.
“I’m sure I could come up with something for that,” he promised, pulling her head toward him again and kissing her deeply and passionately, the way she’d only ever been kissed in her wildest dreams, while she rubbed his erection through his trousers, each gasp from Austin’s throat feeling like praise and a promise of more, leaving her sweaty and satisfied…
Someone banged on the window with their fist.
Lilly flinched, whipped her head around, and stared in shock at the face of a pretty woman with black hair and a disbelieving expression.
“Oh, shit,” Austin cursed, abruptly dropping his hands from her body and squeezing his eyes shut.
“Who is that?” Lilly asked, perplexed, her face burning. She wasn’t naked, Austin’s pants were buttoned, and her dress was still in place — yet she felt exposed.
“Hazel.”
“Hazel…”
“My agent.”
“What…”
“Can I talk to you for a sec, Fox?” Hazel called through the window, her face grim.
Austin sighed but nodded. “Sorry,” he murmured, gently tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. “You have no idea how sorry I am to have been interrupted. But I need to…”
“Sure,” Lilly replied weakly, climbing off his lap. “That is…just great.”
