The speed of their kissing slowed, mellowed, but they did not cool. The sensual pace and his deliberate caresses—a brush of lips, a nip of teeth, a teasing tongue—made her squirm against him. He traced lazy circles up her waist, teasing the skin beneath her breasts.
A whimper escaped and he chuckled in response. She pulled back and was about to issue a demand when he cupped one breast. The pressure, the intimacy, made her knees weak. He gently squeezed, caressing her flesh with long, gentle strokes even as he continued to kiss her senseless. When he tugged on her nipple she arched, writhed as her blood boiled and she sagged against him.
Before she could utter another word he released her. In the span of a heartbeat he slid the zipper of her dress down and pulled it up over her head. Cool air danced on her skin, drawing her nipples into hard points. A moment later he drew one of those hard buds into his mouth and sucked, making a line of fire blaze from her breast straight to the apex of her thighs.
“Adrian!”
He released her, trailing his lips across her skin and covering her other breast with gentle kisses. He didn’t stop kissing her as he masterfully divested her of her panties, so quickly she didn’t even have time to be embarrassed by her nudity, leaving her bare beneath his gaze.
Seconds passed as he took her in. She fisted her hands in the sheets, trying not to cover herself. Finally, after what seemed like hours, he uttered one word that made her feel like a goddess.
“Beautiful.”
He stood, stripped himself of his clothing and reached into the nightstand. He pulled out a condom and she watched in fascination as he rolled it onto his thick length.
Dear God.
She’d felt his desire before, but the sight of him erect made her wonder just how someone of his size would fit.
He rejoined her on the bed, the sunlight streaming in from the balcony windows casting shadows over the tendrils of dark hair curving over his muscular chest. He pressed a kiss to her forehead, then her eyelids, then her cheeks, and finally to her lips in a caress so sweet she thought her heart would burst from the tenderness of it all.
When he lay on top of her, his naked heat covering her from head to toe, she squirmed beneath him. His hardness settled in the cradle of her thighs and she arched her body, begging for release.
“Everleigh?”
Her eyes met his and she paused at the seriousness reflected in the dark depths.
“I want you. But I need to know that you’re sure. Once you give me this, there’s no going back.”
Tears pricked her eyes as her heart sang.
Adrian started to push up, away from her, but she snaked her arms around his neck and kissed him with all the passion she could pour into a single touch. “Please don’t stop.”
He guided himself inside her, the initial sensation foreign. He pressed soft kisses on her face and neck as her body stiffened against the sharp pain.
She gritted her teeth. “I don’t like that.”
“I know,querida. And I don’t want to cause you pain. Do you want me to stop?”
She paused. Already the pain was subsiding. Some of that warmth lingered just beneath the surface. And as she shifted beneath him, getting used to the sensation of him being inside her, the desire slowly returned.
“No. Just...be gentle.”
He pressed the sweetest, softest kiss on the tip of her nose. “I can do gentle.”
Slowly he withdrew, and then pressed back inside her, each thrust accompanied with a feather-light kiss to her jaw or a soft caress on her breast. And with each thrust her desire grew along with her confidence. Gradually she started to meet his thrusts, her hips moving in sync with his. His breathing grew erratic, his eyes hotter as they moved together. She wrapped her arms around him, savoring each touch, each movement, as a heat built inside her unlike anything she could have imagined.
And then she came apart in his arms, her cries matching his as beautiful pleasure filled her and carried her over the top.
She didn’t know how long she lay there, sated and drowsy, but at some point the bed dipped as Adrian got up. The sensation of something warm on her thighs a moment later made her open her eyes. Adrian knelt between her legs, gently cleansing her skin with a wet towel.
“You don’t have to do that.”
Embarrassment made her reach for the sheets—anything to cover her—but Adrian captured her hand and brought it to his lips. The gentle kiss he pressed to the inside of her palm touched her heart and threatened to pull her under.
“Let me do this for you.”
When he’d finished, he tossed the towel into the bathroom and lay back down, pulling the sheet over both of them. She curled up against his chest, soaking in the heat radiating off his incredible body. Her eyes drifted shut and she slowly descended into sleep, with the soundtrack of Adrian’s heartbeat playing against the palm of her hand.
