She shoved at his hard chest. “It bugs me to be lumped into a category. There’s the umbrella group, Girls Sean Has Screwed, and there’s subsets, like Group F-12b, Girls Who Cry When They Come. Just slot me in, file me with the rest of the teeming masses. Get off me!”

“I thought you wanted to keep this emotionally uninvolved.”

“I guess I suck at that,” she said. “Surprise, surprise. Getoff.”

Sean rolled off, and she struggled into a sitting position, pulling her robe around herself. “Time out,” she said. “This isn’t working. It’s making me feel worse, not better. I can’t afford to feel any worse.”

“Not working?” He looked incredulous. “You came like crazy.”

“It’s more complicated than that.” She jumped off the bed, belted the robe. “I’m sorry to leave you high and dry, but I—”

“Oh, you won’t, babe. Forget it. I’m not going anywhere.” He spun her around and pushed her up against the wall. “Not now.”

She stared into his eyes. The peonies on the wallpaper pulsed in her peripheral vision like a fever dream. Her pulse pounded. She was terrified, aroused, furious. He jerked the robe open, cupped her breast, fingers tracing shivering circles around the under-curve. He bent down, took her nipple in his mouth, his tongue a hot rasp of need.

He cupped her face, smoothing away her sweat-dampened hair. “I would never hurt you. You know that, don’t you?”

She thought of all those nights spent sobbing until dawn. All those years of useless therapy. “I cannot believe you have the nerve to say that to me,” she hissed. “You have no clue, do you? Youidiot—”

He cut off her words with a frantic kiss, but the aggression melted down into ravenous sweetness, and the kiss went wild, tongues seeking, limbs twining. They wanted to punish each other, devour each other.

He pulled his mouth away. “Too late to blow me off,” he said. “We passed that point of no return, oh, maybe three orgasms ago?”

“Don’t muscle me around, you ape!”

“Or what? You’ll call Mommy and Daddy, or Blair the Ass-wipe Madden to save you? I’d like to see you explain why you’re stark naked and cherry red and slippery with lube all the way to your knees.”

“Goddamn you, Sean—”

“How about if I just slide down here—” he did so, dragging wet, hungry kisses down over her breasts, her belly, “to my knees and lick some more of that sweet pussy juice off of the royal clit.”

Liv struggled, but he held her hips and pressed his face against her mound, his long tongue squirming its way into the divide of her sex, fluttering skillfully. “Stop,” she begged. “I can’t take any more.”

He lifted his face away. “And when you’ve had enough orgasms, you’ll already be in the perfect position to kick me in the face.”

She wrenched out of his grip, and pitched off balance with her own frantic momentum. Sean lunged to steady her. They careened against the dresser, and caught the cord of the lamp. It clattered to the floor along with them. They landed on her soft, fuzzy pink hooked rug.

She was pinned beneath his big, hot weight. He was so steely hard, heavy and huge, vibrating with emotion. “Aw, shit. You OK?” he asked breathlessly. “Did you hurt yourself?”

She shoved at his chest. “You weigh a ton, and you’re squishing me into jelly, and you’re a rude, horrible jerk, but other than that, no.”

He lifted himself off her rib cage, still keeping her trapped beneath him, and grabbed a pillow that had tumbled off the bed in the tussle. He tucked it behind her head, and scooped her hair, spreading it out over the pillow. Kissed her face, her forehead, her cheeks, her throat.

“I didn’t want to hurt you,” he whispered. “Really. Ever.”

Then why did you do it?The question echoed between them.

He groped for his jeans and plucked a condom out of the pocket. He ripped it open with his teeth and rolled it on himself with careless expertise. She felt like a virgin sacrifice, splayed out wide on a silk draped altar. Offered up to a sensual, merciless demigod.

She couldn’t breathe, she was trembling so hard. He pressed against her, and she gasped at the electric shock of contact. He swirled himself around, caressing her folds. She squirmed towards him, biting her lip to muffle the eager, sobbing sounds she made.

He pressed deeper, staring into her eyes as he bore down. Oh. Whoa. Yikes. He was huge inside her. Her nails dug deep into his arms.

Rap, rap, rap.“Livvy? Honey?” It was her mother’s sharp voice. “We heard noises. Is everything all right?”Rap, rap, rap.“Livvy?”

Sean went motionless. His body began to vibrate with laughter.

He pressed his face against her throat. “Yeah, Livvy.” His tiny, taunting whisper tickled her ear. “Are you all right?”
