Chapter 22 #3
His chest rose and fell in rhythm with hers. He crossed his arms over the front of her body and pulled her closer into him, letting her know how much he wanted her.
“I can’t stop thinking about you, either,” she told him.
Scarlet turned around to face him. Throwing him a faint smirk, she grasped the bottom of his polo and pulled the shirt up over his head. Alex held his breath for a moment while her hands explored the ridges and scars of his fading scars. Scarlet didn’t even flinch as she caressed his skin.
She pulled her hands away from his stomach and quickly relieved herself of her clothes, until she was standing in front of him in only her bra and panties.
Alex focused on her beautifully sculpted body. The tease at the club before was nothing compared to what was standing in front of him now.
His desire surged as he admired her in the low light. She was breathtaking.
He pulled her in for a kiss, his tongue parting her lips so he could taste her. “I want you,” he said between kisses.
“Take me,” she said, without a hint of hesitation. “I’m yours.”
Alex lifted her up into his arms and she wrapped her legs around his waist. He walked with her in his arms to the queen-size bed, gently lowering her down. Their kisses turned more heated with every passing second. The heat from their bodies burned with every soft touch.
He took his time removing her bra, savoring the moment. Scarlet closed her eyes as his fingers grazed her skin, down her waist to the last thing keeping her from being completely exposed to him. He gently pulled her panties down and threw them to the floor.
He looked down at the flawless body of the ballet dancer—his ballet dancer. He softly caressed her battered feet, working his way up her body.
“You’re beautiful,” he breathed into her skin, causing goose bumps to ignite on her legs.
She smiled at him, lightly tracing her fingers across her own bare breasts. Alex knelt and scooted her to the end of the bed. He lowered his head between her legs. He felt Scarlet’s muscles tighten as he kissed the inside of her thigh.
His mind raced with the excitement of having her all to himself. No one was there to tell him it was a bad idea, even though it might have been. Alex’s uncertainty was gone, and Scarlet was all that mattered to him, now.
“Alex,” Her voice was a hushed breath, full of want.
He responded by teasing her with his tongue. Scarlet moaned softly and arched her back, giving him full access to what he wanted most.
Alex explored her, hitting all the right spots, making her body writhe beneath him in pleasure.
He ran his tongue over her clit before closing his mouth around the swollen bud.
He took his time, applying pressure with his tongue.
She let out a series of soft moans as she reached down to grab his hair.
Scarlet arched her back, chest heaved, and pulled herself away from his mouth. He stopped to look up at her determined face.
“Please fuck me,” Scarlet said. “Right now.”
He smiled, rose to his feet while he unbuttoned his jeans. He slid them off, along with his boxers, never taking his eyes off Scarlet.
Her eyes widened, and she bit her lip as she took in the sight of him naked in front of her.
Alex threw her a smirk, and grabbed a condom from the basket. He kissed her, soft and slow, as he fixed it into place. Scarlet’s fingers twisted in his hair, and she wrapped her legs around his body, giving herself to him.
Alex lifted his head to look into her eyes. He wanted to see her, to watch her, as he solidified the moment they would both remember forever. Just the two of them. Just this moment.
Scarlet’s crystal blue eyes held him captivated, piercing his soul, securing the fact that he was now hers and she was his.
She let out a gasp as he entered her. Her fingers tracing his neck, she pulled him in for a hard kiss, as he slowly began to thrust in and out.
Alex’s mind broke as he connected with Scarlet and all of his recent troubled thoughts faded.
Her nails dug into his back, and he thrust harder, making her lean her head back and let out a pleasurable moan. He kept going, building up his momentum, and willed the moment to never end.
Her breaths came in uneven, trembling waves as she moved against him, every touch charged with emotion. They remained in their rhythmic dance as they both chased the release they both wanted so badly.
Scarlet shuddered under him, calling out his name in whispered breaths against his sweaty skin.
She cried out and arched her back, making Alex rush to come as well.
The intense release rose suddenly, almost catching him off guard.
He groaned, and tensed his arms as he held himself over her, the pulsing of his heart pounding in his ears.
A moment later he lowered himself to the bed, and kept Scarlet firmly in his embrace.
They both breathed hard, entwined in their lovemaking. He placed a hand on her cheek, feeling the thin layer of sweat. He touched his forehead to hers and kept his gaze firmly locked with hers.
Those eyes, he thought. He could lose himself in them forever.
