She rotated, adrenaline coursing through her as heat rose in her body. She threw several more punches toward him, which he blocked with ease.
“That all you got?” he asked.
When she went for the sidekick, he saw his advantage and took it. Grabbing the extended leg before it could make contact with his hip, he moved in close and dropped her until she was hovering just inches from the floor.
Caught unaware and slightly out of breath, she stared up at him. His face was so close to hers. Her breathing was labored as she clung to the front of his shirt.
“What was that about kicking my ass?” he asked.
“I went easy on you,” she murmured.
“I seriously doubt that,” he said, his gaze landing on her lips.
She licked hers, inviting the kiss she so desperately wanted. Passion flashed in his expression when his gaze met hers again.
He lowered his head, and his mouth captured hers.
They fell the rest of the way to the floor, his hand gently placing her head against the soft carpet. His body pressed against hers, and she wrapped her arms around his neck, drawing him closer. Never wanting to let go.
Desire fueled through her as she deepened the kiss, savoring the taste of the whiskey on his lips. His hands rested on her hips and slid upward slowly. His fingers toyed with the base of her shirt, and she moaned her approval against his mouth.
His hands slipped inside, smoothing over her stomach and up higher over her rib cage. Her body trembled as she reached for the base of his shirt. This was it. This was the moment she’d torturously made them both wait for.
Trent broke contact with her mouth and sat them both up to remove the articles of clothing. Then he slowly laid her back down and buried his head in the crook of her exposed neck, placing kisses along her skin, her collarbone, her chest…his caress moving lower.
Whitney swallowed hard, her hands tracing the contours of the muscles on his back as his kisses left her wanting so much more. He was by far the hottest man she’d ever dated, and their time together was everything.
They’d only been together three months. Could these strong, overwhelming feelings be real? As much as she was lusting for him right now, they definitely felt like more. She was falling in love with him.
He seemed to sense a hesitation as he broke away slowly and stared down at her. “This doesn’t need to happen right now,” he said. “I can wait. However long you need.”
But he wanted it, too. She could feel just how badly pressed against her leg. She swallowed hard as she stared up at him. Only they could know when was the right time. For them.
And right now, her body and her heart were saying she was ready. “Make love to me, Trent,” she said.
His gaze was loving as he lowered his head back toward hers. His hands slid lower, unbuttoning her jeans and tugging the fabric. She lifted her hips to allow him to slide them down over her ass, hips, and thighs. He followed the fabric down the length of her body, removing them and tossing them aside before removing his own jeans.
His cock strained against the front of his underwear, and a mild panic took hold. While she’d obviously thought about this moment with Trent, fantasized about it, she hadn’t really contemplated what it meant to be with a man as large as he was.
He was large everywhere.
His gaze took in the direction of hers, and he laughed gently. “It’s not as big as it looks,” he said with a teasing grin as he lay back between her legs.
She wasn’t so sure about that.
What she was feeling pressed against her body certainly wasn’t small.
“And don’t worry, I plan to make sure your body is perfectly ready for me,” he whispered against her mouth.
Damn, she was practically there already. She could feel the wetness on the inside of her underwear and tingling between her legs.
Trent lowered his mouth to her neck and kissed and sucked gently, making her entire body come alive. He removed her bra and placed a trail of kisses along her chest, over her breasts…down her stomach.
Whitney closed her eyes, enjoying the feel of his mouth on her body. His kisses were intoxicating. She wanted to wrap her entire body around him and hold tight. She craved to be as close to him as possible.
He reached for the waistband of her underwear and slid them off over her legs, his fingers gently caressing her flesh. A prickling sensation flowed over her skin, and she shivered slightly.
“Cold?” he asked.
