Chapter Fifteen #3
The cup of her bra slipped over her nipple, exposing the puckered point to his seeking lips. He sucked lightly, enjoying the sensation of her on his tongue. Underneath him, she quivered and her breathing sped up in reaction.
He slipped one hand beneath her back, reaching for the clasp of her bra. Seconds later, it came free and he pulled carefully until it came completely away. Tossing it aside, he eyed the feast before him.
She had beautiful breasts. Just the perfect size.
Small and dainty, much like her, but there was just enough plumpness to make a man’s mouth water.
Her nipples were a succulent pink that just beckoned him to taste.
He knew enough about her now to know her breasts were highly sensitive.
And her neck. Up high, just below her ear.
It was guaranteed to drive her crazy if he nibbled either spot.
Tonight he wanted to taste all of her, though. He wanted her imprinted on his tongue, his senses. He wanted to be able to fall asleep smelling her, the feel of her skin on his.
Palming both breasts, he caressed, rubbed his thumbs across the tips before lowering his head to suck at one and then the other.
He nipped lightly, causing the peak to harden even further.
Then he slid his mouth down her middle to the softness of her belly, where he licked a damp circle around her navel.
Chill bumps rose and danced their way across her rib cage. She stirred restlessly, murmuring what sounded like a plea for more.
He thumbed the thin lace band of her panties and carefully eased the delicate material over her hips then down her legs and over her feet. Finally, she was completely naked to his avid gaze.
He moved back over her, his head hovering over the soft nest of blond curls between her legs. Then he stroked his hands over her hips and downward. He spread her thighs with firm hands, opening her to his advances.
All that pink, glistening flesh beckoned. He lowered his mouth, pressed his lips to the soft folds and nuzzled softly until she strained upward to meet him.
“Devon,” she whispered.
It had been a while since he’d heard her husky sweet voice murmur his name in what was a blend of pleasure and a plea for more.
It made him all the more determined that before he was finished, she’d call out his name a dozen more times.
She’d find her release with his name on her lips.
There would be no doubt in her mind who possessed her.
He licked gently at the tiny nub surrounded by silken folds, enjoying every jitter and shudder that rolled through her body. She was more than ready to take him, but he held back, enjoying his sensual exploration of her most intimate flesh.
Slowly he worked downward until he tasted the very heart of her, stroking with lazy, seductive swipes of his tongue.
She began to shake uncontrollably and her thighs tightened around his head.
He pressed one last kiss to the mouth of her opening and then moved up her body, positioning himself between her legs.
He found her heat and sank inside her with one powerful thrust. Her chin went up, her eyes closed and her lips tightened in an expression that was almost agonizing.
He kissed the dimple in her chin and then slid his mouth down her neck and to the delicate hollow of her throat. Her pulse beat wildly, jumping against her pale skin, a staccato against his mouth.
Her slender arms went around him, gripping with surprising strength. Her nails dug into his shoulders like kitten claws.
“Put your legs around me,” he said. “Just like that, baby. Perfect.”
She crossed her heels at the small of his back and arched into each thrust. Her fingers danced their way across his back, sometimes light and then scoring his flesh when he thrust again. She thrust one hand into his hair, pulling forcefully until he realized she was demanding his kiss.
With a light chuckle, he gave in to her silent demand and found her mouth.
Breathless. Sweet. Their tongues worked hotly over each other, dueling, fighting for dominance. She had suddenly become the aggressor and he was lost, unable to deny her anything.
She was wrapped around him, her body urging him on, arching to meet him and finding a perfect rhythm so they moved as one.
Sex had never been this…perfect.
“Are you close?” he choked out.
“Don’t stop,” she begged.
“Oh hell, I’m not.”
He closed his eyes and thrust hard and deep. And then he began working his hips against hers in rapid, urgent movements. She let out a strangled cry and he remembered his vow.
“My name,” he said in a breathless pant. “Say my name.”
“Devon!”
She came apart in his arms. Around him. Underneath him. He was bathed in liquid heat and he’d never felt anything so damn good in his life.
“Ashley,” he whispered. “My Ashley. Mine.”
He unraveled at light speed, his release sharp, bewildering and beautiful. His hips were still convulsively moving against her body as he settled down over her, too exhausted and spent to remember his own name. The one he’d demanded she say just moments ago.
He became aware of gentle caresses. Her hands gently stroking over his back. He was probably crushing her but he couldn’t bring himself to move. He was inside her. Over her. Completely covering her. She was his.
He knew this moment was significant. Something had changed. But his mind was too numb to sort out the meaning. Never before had he been so undone after making love to a woman.
It was supremely satisfying and scary as hell.
