Those words made her melt, squirming under his attention even more. She liked the idea of being his girl, a lot. More than she really wanted to admit right now.

Liam let her nipple go with a pop, lifting his head up. He placed a soft kiss on the palm of the hand she’d been running through his hair, before turning to her, an impish grin tugging at the one corner of his mouth.

“But I think there’s something you’re going to like even better.”

“Liam,” she moaned, unsure she could form any other words.

“First things first, we need to get you out of these pants.”

He flicked open the button of her jeans before she could respond, making quick work of shimmying them down her hips, taking the thong she’d worn with them. Tossing them to the side, Liam let out a long, low groan, his eyes skimming up and down her body. Avery couldn’t help but feel like she was on display—lying there fully naked on the bed, with giant Liam, still fully dressed and staring at her.

He growled again, placing a kiss just above her belly button. It tickled slightly, but as he continued to move down her body, his lips branding her skin as he went, that feeling gave way to something else. Want. It was like her skin was calling out to him, each centimeter wanting to be where his lips went next, marking the spot as his own.

Before Avery knew it, he’d reached the apex of her thighs, moving his face in between her legs. She drew in a deep breath, her heart racing with anticipation. He looked up at her, placing a kiss on her inner thigh, right as his thumb passed over her clit. She let out a cry, missing the brief contact almost instantly. Every inch of her felt like she could go up in flames any second, wanting, waiting for him to do that again.

And then she felt it.

Liam’s tongue found her sex, licking her from bottom to top, giving her clit a little flick, before doing it all over again. Avery gasped, throwing her head back, unable to find her voice to scream at the incredible things she was feeling. It was unlike anything she’d ever experienced. Each long, slow caress of tongue sent her further and further into outer space. He sucked and nibbled at her, now avoiding that bundle of nerves that was throbbing with want. She wiggled her hips, trying to get him to return his attention to her clit, wanting nothing more than to feel him there again. But it seemed like he had his own plans, grabbing her hips to hold her steady.

Just when she thought she couldn’t take it anymore, Liam moaned, sending vibrations straight through her. A second later, he turned his focus to her clit, circling slowly, speeding up as he hummed. Avery slammed her eyes shut, grasping on to the comforter for dear life. This was the greatest thing she’d ever experienced, and she wasn’t sure how much longer she could hold on. The telltale feeling grew in her belly, the one that up until the other day only she had made herself feel.

“Liam…I…I…” she cried, the words not forming in her mouth.

He apparently knew exactly what she was trying to say though, upping his focus right where she needed it, sucking hard. That was all it took for her orgasm to come rushing to the surface, washing over her like a tidal wave. Stars formed behind her eyes, and a noise escaped from her that sounded like nothing she’d ever heard. Liam stayed with her, though, not letting up on his efforts as wave after wave of pleasure coursed through her.

A moment later, she opened her eyes, her breath still heavy and her whole body feeling limp. Liam grazed his lips on the inside of her thigh again before sliding up her body, greeting her with a long, hard kiss. Her hands flew to his face, kissing him deeper and deeper with each swipe of his tongue. The tongue that had just turned her world inside out. She was still riding the high of her climax, wanting more and more of him.

Reaching between them, she placed her hand on the fly of his jeans, palming the bulge behind it. Her mind flashed to just what was behind there, and whether or not he was as talented with that piece of equipment as he was with his fingers and tongue.

“Hey, beautiful,” he said between kisses. “Find something you like?”

“I’m not sure. I haven’t seen it yet.”

“That can be fixed.”

“Please,” she moaned. “And hurry.”

Liam’s heart felt like it could gallop out of his chest at any moment. Avery’s breathy moans and coos were the stuff dreams were made of. His dreams to be exact. From all those nights he'd pictured lying here with her just like this, with her in his arms.

Now was not the time to just sit back and relax though. She had asked him to hurry. And while he had no intention of rushing the moment, he did have every intention of making her wishes come true. Starting by getting out of these clothes. Sliding off the bed, he made quick work of stripping, until he was in nothing but his boxer briefs.

He watched as Avery’s eyes went wide, skimming up and down his body, like she was cataloging every inch of him.

Take it in, love, it’s all yours…

“Liam,” she whispered, reaching for him.

She’d said his name a hundred times tonight, and probably close to a thousand in the time they’d known each other, but it had never sounded quite so wonderful as it did in this moment.

Careful, dude, don’t get in too deep…

He’d already overstepped in calling her “his girl.” Not that she’d corrected him. But she most certainly wasn’t his. Although right now, it sure felt like it.

Grinning, he climbed back on the bed, returning the knowing gaze she was giving him. Fuck, was she beautiful like this. He knew she was self-conscious about her body, thinking that she looked like a preteen and “unwomanly” as she had put it, but that couldn’t have been any further from the truth.

Her small, pert breasts sat perfectly on her chest, right above a flat stomach that showed a whisper of a six pack, before leading to her lean, but surprisingly soft hips. He could have sat there and run his hands up and down her body all day, enjoying nothing but the feel of her and her subtle reactions to his touch. To him, she was the most stunning thing he’d ever seen.
