“I said what I said, and I stand by it.”
“Fine. I fell in love with you, Baz Redgrave.”
“I see.” His lips buzz along my jaw, peppering me with hot, teasing kisses. “And when, exactly, did this alleged falling occur?”
I drag my nails lightly down his back, fingers memorizing every ridge, every plane. “Hmm. Well, it was a process. A long, slow one. Like, first I had to excuse away all your bad behavior and ridiculousness, and then—”
“You lovedeverysecond of it.” His eyes blaze with fresh heat, and between my bare thighs, his cock grows hard. “Admit it.”
“Yeah, I did. I still do.” I press on his chest, forcing some space between us, but that only makes his hips grind against me, his cock all the more eager. “Goddess, I’m so in love with you, you big dumb ape. Are you happy now?”
“I am.” He shrugs, as if he needs a bit more convincing. “I mean, Icouldbe happier.” With a gentle roll of his hips, his cock teases my entrance, sending a jolt of pleasure through my core. He repeats the motion, slower this time, and then he’s sliding inside me, filling me with his hot, hard length.
I grip his forearms and let out a soft hiss. The warmth, the gentle stroke, the way he moves inside me… all of it is conspiring to take me away from this place. The worries. The what-ifs.
“Any other questions, Little Bird,” he teases, shifting so the base of his cock brushes against my clit with his next thrust. “Or did you lose your train of thought?”
“You…” I pant, quickly unravelling. “You always did have a knack for… making me… forget.”
“Oh, but I don’t want you to forget. Not this time.” He grips my face with surprising urgency, then brands me with a kiss so deep and devastating I reallycoulddie right now and be a happy woman. When he finally pulls back, all the humor is gone from his gaze, replaced with a depravity that sets my insides on fire.
“Tonight,” he warns, his voice dark and low, “I’m going to give you something to remember. Something to make youache.” Another searing hot kiss, another perfect thrust. “Tonight, I’m going to fuck you like there’s no tomorrow.”
Because there might not be.
He doesn’t need to say that last part out loud. Love and passion ignite in his eyes, and then he’s on me again, suffocating me with kisses, the weight of his body a warm, solid reminder that we’re still here. That whatever’s on tomorrow’s horizon doesn’t matter—we’ve still got tonight.
Andnothingis over yet.
He drags his mouth down to my throat, then continues lower, capturing my nipple between his lips and sucking hard. The pain is exquisite, and my core clenches around him, throbbing with a need so desperate I’m not sure I’ll survive the next fiveminutes, let alone the impending war.
Threading my fingers into his hair, I try to hold him to my breast, more than happy to lose myself to his hot, velvet kisses.
But my Devil in disguise has other plans.
Before I realize what’s happening, he’s pulling out of me and pulling away. I’m about to scream in protest, but then he flips around on the bed, repositioning himself with his cock near my mouth and his face between my thighs.
He goes down. Hard and deep and bruising and…
Holy
Fucking.
Hell.
With strong hands, he grips my thighs and pushes them open even wider, pinning them down as mouth descends on my superheated flesh again and again. Fisting him, I part my lips and guide his smooth, rock-hard cock into mouth, relaxing my throat as I take him in deeper, the feel of his hot skin making me moan. His tongue flicks over my clit, that skilled mouth knowing exactly how much pressure to give me, exactly how much teasing I can take before I shatter.
Swirling my tongue around the head of his cock, I suck hard and bring him in deeper, suddenly desperate to taste every inch of him. My hips arch off the bed to get closer to his punishing mouth, a move that only makes him more frenzied.
He growls and sucks my clit between his lips, teasing and nipping as I gasp in pleasure, both of us driving each other wild. He fucks me everywhere at once, his tongue devouring me, his hips thrusting against my face, the weight of him hot and perfect on my body as we race to that delicious, white-hot edge…
I close my eyes and moan once more around the swell of his cock, and his tongue spears my core, a relentless lashing that has my vision swimming with images of our forbidden meadow, my legs trembling, my body close to bursting.
Goddess, he feels so good. Every touch, every kiss unravels me a little more.
He closes his lips over my clit and sucks, and then I’m gone, the meadow swirling into nothing but black skies and starlight as the pleasure explodes inside me. Baz tightens his grip on my thighs, his body going rigid as he chases his own orgasm, his tongue still swirling over my clit. With one last growl, he finally comes, his body going as boneless as mine.
I swallow him down, gently easing him out of my mouth.
