He flashed another wicked grin and withdrew until just the head of his cock remained inside me.
“You never thought what?” he asked again, not moving, waiting, driving me crazy.
“I never thought sex would be like this,” I blurted out.
His body jolted, plunging in to the hilt. “Christ, Raven, don’t say things like that.”
“Why not?” I asked, breathy and reeling in sensation.
“Because I might be a hypocrite for it, but I love that no other man has been inside you, and when you remind me, it very much makes the less-than-civilized side of me want to come out.”
“Oh? And what would the less-than-civilized side of you do?” I asked, grazing my fingers down his biceps, silently begging him to let that side out.
He groaned and shook his head. “You’ve got to be sore, and I’m doing my damnedest to play nice.”
“I don’t want you to play nice, Nico.”
The noise that rumbled from his throat sounded like a growl.
A shiver of trepidation raced down my spine, but I was too high on pleasure to care.
He leaned his weight onto one arm and grabbed my wrists, pinning them above my head.
“Fuck, Raven, you’re perfect.” He thrust in harder. And harder. Again and again. “So fucking perfect.” He lunged for my neck and sunk his teeth into the column of my throat.
Sensation came from everywhere. His teeth, his tight grip on my wrists, his slick chest rubbing against my breasts, the friction as he slammed inside me over and over again.
It came out of nowhere. One second, the coil was winding inside me; in the next, I was screaming as an orgasm took me hard and fast, jolting all the way out to my fingertips.
“Raven,” Nico groaned, and I waited for him to follow me into orgasmic bliss, but he withdrew instead, so fast, I didn’t know what was happening until he’d flipped me over and drew me back onto my hands and knees.
He grabbed hold of my hips and thrust inside me none too gently, driving in deep. It should have hurt. God knew, I was going to feel it afterward, but at the moment, the ebbing ripples of my orgasm had switched direction, like the sudden turning of the tide. I was climbing again, so fast I felt almost dizzy with the constant flood of ecstasy.
He leaned over me, fisting the hair at the nape of my neck and turning my face to his. He kissed me, fierce and demanding, while his free hand sought out my breasts, palming one and then the other, catching my nipples between his fingers. My god, I was going to die of sensory overload.
“I can’t get enough of you, Raven. You’re like a drug,” he ground out between gritted teeth. He released my hair, moving his hand to my clit. He rubbed me the same way he was fucking me—hard and fast.
I dug my fingers into the carpet. I could see the precipice this time, so close, my whole body shook. I wanted to tell him he’d made me insatiable, that I was addicted too, but my tongue wouldn’t form the words. All I could do was scream as he sent me soaring over the edge and joined me on the free fall that left me weightless and euphoric.
It could have been seconds or eons later when he withdrew from me and we collapsed back onto the carpet. He threw an arm over me and drew me close against him. I felt boneless, and exhausted, and absolutely right where I was supposed to be.
That probably should have been the first warning that my feelings weren’t as free from the arena of Nico and me as I’d thought.
