Knowing he’s hanging on by a thread is enough for me to meet him with every thrust. Sweat drips down on me and my fingers grip his back, pulling at his shoulder blades until he nibbles on my earlobe. The desperation in his strangled breath finishes the job. I’m thrown out into a raging sea when my orgasm surges over me until I’m once again floating in the calm ocean.
How did I not know that sex like this existed?
Enzo pumps into me one more time, a grunt rising from his throat, then he stills.
Once we’ve regained our breathing, we look at one another. I can’t tell what he’s thinking. What is he thinking?
“I’ll be right back,” he says, slipping out of me.
How can that feel like a loss? It shouldn’t.
Grabbing my pajama pants and T-shirt, I quickly clothe myself while he’s in the bathroom. Once he’s out, I hurry into it and lock myself in. Damn it. I wish I could call Mae.
I take care of business then wash my hands. “You got this, Annie. If he’s already asleep when you get out there, it’s no sweat off your back. You got what you wanted. All you wanted was to sleep with him.”
Even I want to point at myself in the mirror and scream liar.
I abandon the whole pep talk and open the door, shutting off the light. The room is black, which means Enzo’s asleep. Don’t get upset.
I head to my bed and slide in. A big hand wraps around my waist. I scream, startled.
Enzo laughs. “Is this a problem?” he asks, moving his hand and sitting up.
“What?”
“Sharing a bed? Did you want me in my own?” I hear a hitch in his voice, and I silently pray he’s not doing this out of some misguided effort to make me feel better.
“No. It’s fine.” I tamp down my excitement because that’ll produce an expectation and I can’t have any of those with Enzo Mancini.
“Why are you in your pajamas? Those have to go.” His hands fall to my stomach and he pushes my shirt up over my head. Once that’s off, he works on my pants.
“I can do it.”
“Not quickly enough.” He chuckles, kissing my neck.
“You’re kind of surprising me right now.”
“Why? Because I want to cuddle? It’s really just a reason to touch you. Plus I’m a mama’s boy, what did you expect?”
I sit up. “Okay, you cannot put those two thoughts together. Touching me and bringing your mom into it.”
He chuckles. His hand lands on the back of my neck, bringing me down to him to kiss.
Damn, he really is a great kisser. I press my hand on his chest and tear my lips off him.
“What’s the matter now?” he whines.
“We need rules.”
“Rules?” He sits up, the sheet falling to his waist.
I turn on the light.
“Lights. Hurt. Eyes.”
“Come on, you know we can’t very well just sleep together then go with the flow.”
Finally I find some agreement in his expression.
