You never could tell when swanky underwear would be needed. Best to be prepared.

I stepped out of my work pants, pushing them aside with a toe. "And?"

"And I had issues meeting her expectations." He stroked my neck, running his fingers around the neckline of my work T-shirt. "Kept getting overexcited and coming too soon."

I grinned.

"She liked me, but ah ... she was starting to get a bit angry about it." One finger wandered, drawing a line down the middle of my tee, pressing in between the divide between my breasts. Of course he had my nipples' undivided attention. Hell, he had my whole body's attention, apart from my brain. It was swimming with happy hormones, drowning in them.

"Huh," I said, because I'm an intellectual genius like that.

"Not that I wouldn't finish her off. She showed me how to give her a hand-job, told me how to use my mouth." He gripped the hem of my T-shirt, the backs of his fingers sliding over my stomach, toying with me.

My insides tumbled and twisted. My panties were wet.

"Now that I think about it, she was seriously bossy. But I learned a lot."

Up went my T-shirt, exposing my matching lace bra. Then away it went, flying off into the darkness.

"Christ," he said.

All of a sudden light flooded the room, blinding me. Bright patterns danced before my eyes, making me blink like crazy.

"Sorry. I needed to see." Vaughan's big hands slid up over my rib cage, stopping beneath the band of my bra. His eyes were as big as ... well, my boobs.

"Okay. You've seen now." I fumbled my hand along the wall, trying to feel out the light switch. Darkness was good. Why, it hid all manner of things. The bulge of my tummy and the dimples on my thunder thighs. Darkness and me were great friends.

"It's staying on."

"But atmosphere!"

"Babe." He caught my hand, kissing my knuckles. "It's staying on."

"Talk about bossy," I grumbled.

He leveled me with a look. Or he tried to.

"It's just that I would be more comfortable--"

Before I could even finish the thought, he whipped off his shirt, dropping it on the floor. Next his feet got busy toeing off his shoes while he tore into the buttons on his jeans. With a hand pressed against the wall for balance, his socks were gone, and then so were his pants. Hey presto, the man stood before me in no more than a snug pair of blue boxer briefs, which happily left little to the imagination. He was so pretty. When it came to Vaughan Hewson, words were insufficient. I could spend all day trying to describe every curve and plane, each subtly delineated muscle. His long lean body was pure poetry. Poetry or porn, maybe both. My brain and vagina were still at war over that one.

"That was fast," I said.

"Now we're both almost naked. Feel better?"

I shrugged, my greedy gaze roving over his body. Me in the light made for not much happy. But him in the light made for fucking awesome. Odd how every bit of moisture evaporated from my open mouth. Though to be fair, the wetness was desperately required elsewhere.

"Lydia," he remonstrated, going so far as to actually tut at me like I was some kid.

"What?"

Again, he dropped to his knees. His head almost, but not quite, level with my breasts. Lips an unimpressed line, he stared at my stomach. Fair enough. My belly didn't do much for me either. Not that I'd put a ban on cheesecake and start jogging. Let's not go crazy.

Instead of expressing concern regarding my Body Mass Index or some such, he pried away the hands covering my stomach, holding them captive with his own.

"Don't do that," he said quietly. "You're beautiful. Every bit of you."

Oh.

Lips placed tender kisses across my middle, his tongue sneaking out and flicking over my belly button. I gasped, sucking myself in as much as I could.

"It tickled," I said when he gave me yet another look.

A brief smile.

"Are you going to finish your story?" Anything to distract him from my body issues was a good thing.

"Yes." He stood once again, rubbing his fingers over the palms of his hands. "Where was I?"

"Her, starting to get a little angry. Me, breasts."

"'Course." With a hand beneath each, he took their weight, lifting them gently. "Fuck."

I had nothing.

"Think I should just follow you around all day, holding your tits like this." He nuzzled my neck, the side of my face. And all the while his hands worked, massaging lightly, thumbs playing with my nipples. "You'll never need a bra again."

"That should work well." It grew harder to breathe for some reason. Like my lungs were indisposed or out of order.

"I think so." He groaned, pressing his cock into my hip. Big, hard, definitely turned on. And lord, so was I. At the feel of him, everything low in me went nuclear. Red lights flashing, sirens wailing. The way he was touching me, pressing himself against me. The wonder in his eyes and admiration in his words. It was all too much, but I never wanted it to end. My whole body burned bright. I could light up a city. Nothing else existed beyond him and me.

"Can't stop touching you," he said.

"Please don't."

"Why the hell haven't we been doing this before now," he whispered in my ear, breathing heavy.

"Because we're idiots?"

A pained laugh. Then he nipped at my neck, the sting a startling thing. But his lips sucking, tongue licking the slight pain away was so sweet. I went up on my toes, trying to escape his eager mouth, yet keeping a death grip on his arms in case he tried to go anywhere.

Fuck me. Confusion ruled my mind. There were too many sensations, both sharp and sweet. Firm lips and a wicked tongue. The licks grew longer, slower, as he dragged his tongue up my neck.

Soft soothing kisses lined my jaw, the edge of my lips.

"See? Not so bad," he mumbled, rubbing his nose against my cheek. God, I wish he'd get closer. Inside me would be good.

"No. Not so bad."

"Mm."

I eased my feet back flat upon the floor, wound my arms around his neck. His hair was better than mine. Soft and silken. Bet the man only washed it with soap or something too. How unfair.

"Do you have a condom on you?" I said, threading my fingers through his hair, stroking the back of his neck, touching as much of the man as I could.

"Went and got a box on my break. A big one. I stocked up just for you."

"Excellent."

His hands slipped behind my back, fiddling with something. Then the weight of my breasts shifted, the straps of my bra loosening. "So ... my story."

"Yep?" How he expected me to concentrate on anything, I have no idea.

"I kept coming too soon and it was pissing her off."

"Understandable," I said. "Can I just quickly say how much I'm enjoying hearing about one of your ex-girlfriends right now?"

This time he nipped where my neck and shoulder joined, biting down harder, holding on longer. When he eased the wound he spread his lips w

ide, sucking on a larger area, drawing hard. Hands spread across my back, he held me against him, leaving no space between us. Blood rushed through me, loud behind my ears. My nerves fired, half in heaven, half in hell. All of me confused as shit.

The man was part vampire and I had the worst feeling I liked it. A lot.

"That one's going to leave a mark," he reported matter-of-factly. As if he weren't affected. Like his cock wasn't prodding my stomach, hard as stone.

A smartass reply would have to wait, however. I was too busy just breathing.

Vaughan eased back, searching my face for something. When he didn't find whatever it was, he slid a hand down between my legs. He pulled aside my panties and slid a finger carefully into me. Though there was no real need to be careful. Lubricant factories would have been envious. The state of my underwear was a damn disgrace.

"Hot and wet," he said.

I frowned. "Was I not supposed to be?"

"Just checking." Once, twice, he kissed my lips. Quick, inconsequential things. Nothing like what I hungered for. The devouring I was after. He made a happy humming sound, keeping his finger in place. "I got worried when you didn't say anything. Had to know if it was working for you."

"That makes sense."

"Hmm." His thumb slid up into my panties, sliding dangerously near my overexcited clit. I gasped, tightening my hold on his hair. The man winced, but didn't complain. And let the record show, he was breathing every bit as heavily as I was.

"Should we have a safety word or something?" I asked, trying to thinks straight, to be practical.

"Sure. If it makes you feel better."

"Okay." The finger inside of me swirled around, pumping in and out, doing everything good. Every muscle down there contracted in glee. I could feel my pulse hammering between my legs. "Oh god, that feels good."

"What's your safety word, babe?"

"Keep doing that or I'll kill you?"

"What this?" The clever finger teased my entrance, spreading the wetness around.

"More."

"Soon," he said, slowly withdrawing his hand from my panties. Dammit.

I gave a sad, pitiful kind of moan. "No. Now."

"So, she tells me I have to start thinking of something else when we're having sex." He pressed his thigh between my legs, keeping a constant pressure against my nether regions. Those being all of my fun girl bits, currently in desperate need of attention. It was impossible not to push back hard, even though it eased the ache only a little. His story eased nothing at all, and was quite frankly a distraction.

"I have to keep my mind busy while we're doing it, she says." He held my hip with one hand, sliding the other between my breast and bra cup, easing the material down. "She asks me what I like. I say, I really like Fender guitars."
