Seductive Suspect - Page 30

He spread my thighs apart with a firm shove. “Normally, I would take my time with someone as amazing as you, but if I don’t fuck you right this second, I’m afraid I might explode.”

Without warning, he grabbed my hips and flipped me over. The tip of his cock teased at my pussy, and I inhaled. Bracing myself on my forearms and knees, I swallowed back a moan as he worked his way inside. Palms planted on either side of my hips, he pushed into me inch by inch, stretching me. Never before had I felt sofull.

He set the tempo with short, quick thrusts. I rocked back to meet him, savoring every collision of our bodies. Within moments, our measured rhythms broke down, and pleasure took command. Holding me in place with his solid grip, he slammed into me even harder. I dug my fingers into the mattress and tried to match him, but my efforts were futile. He had complete power over me.

Every time he lunged forward, his cock forged deeper into my cunt, gliding across my most sensitive nerves. Ecstasy prickled over my skin, simmering in my veins. I clutched at one of the pillows, burying my face in it, and lost myself to the whirlwind of sensations.

Never slowing, Adam slipped one hand beneath me. Expert fingers sought out my clit, rubbing in little circles. The added pressure proved too much to handle. A violent orgasm overtook me, sending me off balance. It raged through me like a hurricane, an inferno, something bigger than I could control. I clenched around him and screamed into the pillow while the tremors wracked my body. As I rode out the storm, satisfactionsettled over me, erasing all the negativity of the prior days.

My muscles slackened and my breathing gradually slowed. He withdrew, and I sensed movement beside me, yet I stayed in place, enjoying the utter bliss. When I turned and opened my eyes, Adam lay on his back, hands pressed to his head.

“Damn, I needed that,” he said, letting out a long breath. “I think we both did.”

I smiled. “Definitely.”

He leaned over and dropped the used condom into the plastic receptacle beside the bed. Shifting, he reached for me. “Come here.” He slid an arm underneath my limp body, and I allowed him to pull me from the pillow onto his shoulder. “I dreamed about this part, too, holding you close and being with you.”

I snuggled against him, lulled by the rise and fall of his chest. “Not to shatter all your grandiose visions of me, but it’s been a while since I’ve…well, done any of this.”

A short chuckle reverberated beneath my ear. “Same here, actually.”

“Someone like you?” I ran my fingers along his collarbone. “I find it hard to believe.”

“I could say the same thing about you.” Leaning his cheek against the top of my head, he toyed with the ends of my messy hair. “I moved halfway across the country for my current job a while ago and have been throwing myself into it ever since. It hasn’t left me a lot of time for meeting new people and having some fun.”

“I understand. I’ve been known to fall into the same habits.” I continued tracing lines over his chest, delighting in the warmth of his skin. “And while my sister never seems to have a shortage of guys to date, none of them have ever been appealing to me.” I crinkled my nose and rolled my eyes at the memories. “Maybe my standards are too high.”

“Hey, you’re here with me now.” He squeezed my shoulders.“They can’t bethathigh.”

I laughed. It felt good to push aside all the horrors of the previous days and the loneliness leading up to them. “You’re different. You can actually hold an intelligent conversation for more than five minutes, and I’m determined to beat you at chess one day.”

“You will.”

Mentioning the future cast a gray cloud over our pleasant discussion. I tilted my head back to look up at him. “What happens next?” I whispered. “We’re still not out of danger. Even now, someone could break through the door any second…”

“We’ve already come this far.” Adam rolled onto his side to face me. “Part of me believes we were meant to find each other, that the fates or the universe or whatever wouldn’t let us have something this good only to rip it away.”

I blushed. “You make things sound so simple. I don’t know how you’re so confident.”

“I’m not. It’s a front.” He ran his hand down to the small of my back, pressing our bodies together in a long, unbroken line. “We’ve seen terrible things, and I’m frightened, too. But the idea of spending more time with you is all the motivation I need to find us a way out of this place.” His forehead rested against mine. “I’ve waited a long time to meet someone like you. I’m not giving up.”

“I like the way you think.”

Vowing to forget our troubles for at least the rest of the night, I kissed him. Our tongues met in a lazy tangle, a contrast to our previous frantic pace. I returned my fingers to his shoulders and chest, seeking out every ridge and muscle. In our prior lust-driven race toward release, I hadn’t gotten the opportunity to explore his body in detail. Now, I wanted to learn everything about him.

I let my palms roam over the expanse of toned muscles,gliding over his pecs, arms, and back. He let out a soft groan against my mouth when I skimmed over his nipples, but I didn’t stay in one spot for very long. I smoothed the downy curls at the center of his chest, following their path across his abdomen.

Adam stirred as I traveled lower and lower. I grazed the tip of his erection yet left it alone, choosing to cup his firm ass instead. Another strained growl rumbled in his throat, and he nipped at my lower lip. I giggled, and my fingertips danced back around to the front of him. With a light, feathery touch, I ran them up and down the length of his shaft.

The hand at my back tensed. I wrapped one hand around his cock, the perfect combination of satiny skin and solid steel. Its weight in my grasp triggered a new ache deep in my core. I had to have him again. Tightening my grip, I gave him a deliberate pump.

He broke the kiss, the muscles in his neck and jaw tight. “We’d better be careful,” he said.

“Right.” I delivered another playful squeeze before releasing him. “So hurry up.”

Shaking his head, he grinned. “You really are something else.”

He groped around on the nightstand for the box of condoms, yanked one out, and donned it in record time. The mere thought of his cock inside me drove me crazy with desire, a craving only he could satisfy. I pulled him back toward me and ground against the swollen shaft.
