He placed a finger under her chin and tilted her head up. “Woman, do you really think I’m afraid of you?”
There was no need to be, but yes, she did.
“I’m not afraid, Tressa. Just cautious.”
“Am I a risk?”
“Yes,” he said without blinking.
Now they were getting somewhere. “Am I one worth taking?” She could tell by the way he studied her that the question had caught him off guard. Bringing her mouth within inches of his, she teased him in the same way he’d teased her earlier. “Am I a risk worth taking, Roth?”
His jaw tensed, relaxed, then tensed again. “Yeah, I think you are,” he said in a low tone of surrender. “But it’s not that—”
“It truly is that simple.” Tressa pushed out of his arms and straddled him. She grabbed the hem of her shirt and lifted it over her head. Roth sucked his bottom lip between his teeth. His hardness swelled between her legs and pressed against her warmth. “Do you want to make love to me, Roth?”
“Yes.” The sound of surrender danced in his voice.
“Good.” And triumph danced in hers.
Lowering again, she glided the tip of her tongue slowly across his moist bottom lip, then dragged it between the split. He parted his lips and gently sucked her tongue into his mouth. They kissed for a long time. Slowly, tenderly.
Roth’s hands explored her body, gliding up her arms, over her shoulders, down her back and came to rest on her ass. She moaned when he squeezed gently, then not so gently. The not so gently caused the throbbing between her legs to pulse even more ferociously.
She snaked a hand between them and rubbed Roth’s hardness through the fabric of his sweatpants. A guttural sound rumbled in his chest. Venturing farther, she inched her hand beneath his waistband and wrapped her eager fingers around his hot, hard flesh and stroked gently.
In a swift move, Roth freed himself from her grasp. Like a child who’d been denied her favorite toy, she whined, “I want to feel you, Roth.” She kissed one corner of his mouth. “I want to stroke you.” She placed a kiss to the opposite side. “I want to bring you to the brink of exploding.”
Roth didn’t respond to her risqué words. Instead, he entangled his fingers in her hair, held her mouth to his and kissed her, hard and raw. Draping a strong arm across her back, he sat forward, shifted, swung his legs off the couch and stood.
When he took a step toward the stairs, Tressa broke their kiss. “In front of the fireplace. I’ve fantasized about making love to you there since we arrived.”
Dark desire danced in Roth’s eyes. Her head spun from the anticipation of being the recipient of the massive amount of passion she saw swimming in his hard stare.
Roth lowered them to the rug and blanketed her body. “I’ve craved making love to you since the very first time our eyes met months ago.”
“That’s a whole lot of bottled-up yearning.”
“You have no idea.” A corner of his mouth lifted into a wicked smile. “But you’re about to find out.” Roth pecked her gently, then stood.
“Where are you going?” she asked with shameless alarm in her tone.
“Nowhere, baby.”
Tressa ogled with delight as Roth removed his pants. She gnawed at the corner of her lip, waiting for the fitted boxers to fall.
Roth hooked his thumbs inside the black fabric, then paused. “You’re staring. Do you see something you like?”
Tressa sucked her bottom lip between her teeth and nodded seductively. At least in her mind she was being seductive. In actuality, she probably resembled a bobblehead doll. It didn’t matter, as long as Roth gave her what she wanted.
Roth teased her, inching them down with no regard to speed. “Think you can handle it?”
“There’s only one way to find out.”
Tressa fought the urge to shout when Roth revealed himself. From the feel she’d copped earlier, she’d got a good idea of what to expect. But actually seeing his impressive manhood only thrilled her more. How much longer would she have to wait to experience it?
“I should warn you, I’m an unselfish lover. I like to give. And I’ll keep giving until I’m sure you’re satisfied.”
