Fuck. It.

For a split second the fear I felt hearing that voice outside leaks in. Glancing back to the window doubt wraps around my throat, causing me to falter. Skyler takes my face in his hands. Longing and concern war in his eyes.

His voice is hazy with lust, but no less menacing, “Anyone who dares to touch you signs their death certificate. I’d sooner see the world burn than any harm come to you.” He leans forward, brushing my hair behind my ear, aiming to kiss my cheek.

I turn my head instead, planting my lips on his. He moans, wrapping his hand in my hair. With a gentle tug he angles my head up, deepening the kiss. His free hand grabs my waist and pulls me flush against his chest.

A longing whimper makes its way up my throat as the new position lets me feel just how much he’s enjoying this. He swallows the sound as his tongue explores my mouth. That desperate warmth settles in my chest again.

As if reading my mind, he pulls back. His hungry eyes find mine — seeking permission. A slight nod is all it takes. He presses a kiss to my sternum, and my world falls off its fucking axis. His teeth graze across my collarbone, sending sparks through my body.

My head falls back. Slowly, I rock my hips against him as my core cries for his touch. Skyler sucks the delicate skin at the base of my throat into his mouth. In the same beat, he reaches between us sliding a finger across my leggings, teasing the outline of my folds.

A feral moan escapes me, “Skyler.” I’m begging, for what I don’t know. Just more. I need more. There’s too many layers of fabric between us. Crossing my arms, I grip the hem of my sweater, guiding it over my head.

Skyler freezes, his eyes drinking me in. That needy gaze empowers me. My hands trail down his arms, across his chest. “Skyler,” I say again, tone more serious. There’s no going back from this. We’ve been tiptoeing this line but crossing it changes everything. I’ll never be able to go back to just friends... or coworkers? What if it’s too soon…

“I need —” He shakes his head. “Fuck. That. Job.” He pauses between each word, pressing kisses to my breasts, sucking a nipple between his teeth after the last one. Gentle, never biting, just teasing the flesh.

With a hand on each cheek, I lift his head. He leans in to capture my lips again, but I press a finger to his. “Shush,” a playful smirk tugs the edges of my mouth upwards. “I was saying, I need to give you my two-week notice.”

A sound far more wolf than man rumbles in his chest. One arm wraps around my back, his other pushing us off the floor. Lifting me up with his hands under my thighs, he spins us around while nipping at my bottom lip. As his legs hit the mattress, he guides us down, keeping me atop his lap.

Kissing down my neck, he twirls a nipple between his fingers. With a shaky breath, I whine, “Please.” Skyler grazes the base of my throat with his teeth again. This time his hand dips inside the waistband of my leggings.

“Oh, I promise to give you everything you need, Sunlight.”

His fingers push my panties to the side.

“I just want to savor it,” he assures, breath hot against my chest.

His finger draws lazy circles around my clit as he sucks that sensitive skin above my breasts. “Fuck...” I breathe, my head lulling to the side in a blissful daze. He teases my entrance with his finger before withdrawing it. I whimper, a pitiful noise.

“I need to taste you.” Skyler is heady, caught up in our passion. Lifting me off his lap and pressing my back to the mattress, the cool air hits my curves as leggings and panties are quickly discarded.

For the briefest moment fear inches in. Fear that I’m not what he expected. That he’ll change his mind. Then, as he drops to his knees between my legs, I catch that gleam in his eyes that I’ve only ever seen when he looks at me. Hear the euphoric sound that falls from his lips as he grips the tops of my thighs. “Goddess fucking above, Amethyst.”

His tongue glides through the slickness of my folds, circling my clit. “Your body is divine, and I was made to worship every inch.”

And I can’t think of anything at all. Except that he’s not close enough. Not deep enough.

My fingers tangle in his hair as I desperately try to pull him closer. “Skyler, I...” Words fail me. He sucks my clit before releasing it with a pop. “Tell me my sweet fucking Sunlight,” he hums against me, “let me hear those gorgeous thoughts.”

With another circle of his tongue, I’m whimpering. Pushing against him, craving the friction. “I need more. I need you inside.” With a feral groan, he obliges, tongue teasing my entrance as he dips in a finger. I cry out, my head falling against the mattress.

A second finger slides inside and he curls them upwards as he pulls my clit between his teeth. Rocking against him, my muscles tighten. His free hand trails over my stomach leaving fire in its wake.

Teasing a nipple between his fingers, he flattens his tongue against me. With one more delicious curl inside me, I’m falling apart. Without withdrawing his fingers Skyler stands as my thighs shake from the orgasm.

He slips them out as he leans over me. Catching my gaze, he wraps his tongue around the fingers still coated with my release, sucking them into his mouth. His eyes roll back as he moans. “Fucking delicious. One taste and I’m addicted to your sweet pussy.”

Fuck, that’s hot.

Panting for breath, I pull him closer, capturing him in a kiss. He cradles my head as his tongue darts across my lips. When our tongues collide, I taste myself and that drives me even more wild.

He pulls back slipping out of his sweats. I find myself just as hypnotized as he was at the sight of me. With a drunken gaze, he strokes himself once, a glistening droplet at the tip drawing my attention.

As it trails down the length of him, I want to follow that same path with my tongue. He reaches to pull me back in his lap, but I shake my head. “Not yet.” Dropping to my knees, I brace myself on his thighs. “I want a taste of you too, Angel.”
