So much more.
“Give me an answer, Lola.”
I…
He drives inside me again before falling into a steady rhythm, pumping in and out until it feels like I’ll splinter apart. His lips hover over the little bud until his warm breath can drift over me. I struggle beneath him, unable to hold myself still. When his tongue darts out to swipe over my delicate flesh, a whimper escapes.
His touch is agonizing. There and gone before I can fully sink into the pleasure of it.
“Tell me the truth. I need to hear it from you.”
When his tongue rasps over me again in tandem with the steady slide of his finger, the words pour from me in a torrent. I couldn’t keep them trapped inside even if I wanted to. It needs to be purged from my system once and for all.
“Yes! All right? As much as I don’t want to feel something for you, I do! That’s why I stopped returning your calls and texts. I was hoping a little distance would help me realize that you don’t mean anything to me, but it’s not true. I want you, Asher. And I want this—whatever the hell this is.”
With a growl, he attacks my flesh. A scream tears from my lips as he slips two fingers deep inside me. Both his teeth and mouth go to work on my clit. That’s all it takes for me to explode against him.
My body goes whipcord tight as I scream out my orgasm. He doesn’t let up on the firm pressure until every drop has been wrung from my over-sensitized body. Until I’m nothing more than a limp mess, staring sightlessly at the ceiling.
Only then does he raise his head. “There’s no more running and hiding. You’re mine now. You belong to me.”
I suck in a shuddering breath as his words crash over me. The finality of them should light a fire under my ass. Instead, they do the opposite. An odd amount of peace suffuses my entire being. It doesn’t make sense. But then again, nothing with Asher does.
He rises from between my legs until he’s able to loom over me. His fingers slide around my ribcage before settling on the clasp of my bra. A second later, the stretchy material springs apart and he tugs it from my body, dropping it to the floor. A shiver slides through me as I realize he’s still dressed in both his shirt and shorts.
His gaze rakes over me before flicking back to mine.
“This is exactly how I like you, Lola. Naked, soft, and vulnerable.”
Even though I just came, arousal bursts to life in my core.
When one large palm settles over my breast, I arch into his touch. He squeezes the plump flesh before his thumb and forefinger tighten around the taut peak. A moan slips free as he tweaks the sensitive bud before pulling at it until another round of explosions detonates inside me.
“Am I hurting you?”
I shake my head. It’s a curious concoction of pleasure and pain, but ultimately, the way he’s touching me feels good.
Better than that, if I’m being truthful.
“Turn over.”
The gruffly uttered words don’t immediately penetrate the thick haze clouding my brain. When I continue to stare, he wraps his hands around my hips before flipping me onto my belly. I don’t have a chance to catch my breath before he drags me to the edge of the bed and pulls my ass high in the air.
A groan rumbles up from deep in his chest as his rough fingers drift over my flank before spreading my cheeks. “Fuck, you’re gorgeous.”
My teeth sink into my lower lip as I squeeze my eyes shut. All it would take is one simple word and he would back off, but I can’t seem to summon the directive. Even more telling—I don’t want to. No man has ever toyed with my body like this or coaxed these kinds of responses from me.
How could I possibly ask him to stop now?
“Is this all for me?”
I’ve spent my entire life being strong and in control, never allowing myself a single moment of weakness or my guard to falter. Even though I want to do that with Asher, I find it difficult to give in completely. To hand myself over for his safekeeping without him proving first that he can be trusted. A silent war erupts inside my brain. It doesn’t take long to lose myself in the turmoil of those thoughts.
It’s only when a hard smack lands on my ass that I jolt, a gasp escaping from me, as a fusion of shock, pleasure, and discomfort explodes in my core.
“You didn’t answer the question,” he growls before enunciating more carefully, “Is all this for me?”
My eyes widen as he drags a finger along the cleft between my cheeks before his large palm settles over my pussy, squeezing it possessively with a tight grip.
