Fire blazes through his dark features as he holds my gaze. I don’t recall a man regarding me with such carnal need before. He makes me feel like the most beautiful woman ever.

I whimper. “I don’t know how to be half-invested.”

“Baby, I don’t know how to be fully invested or even partially invested.” He kisses my forehead. “You have to meet me halfway on this.”

I sniffle and he looks in my eyes, analyzing me. “Do you like me?”

Yes. A lot more than I should.I bite my lip and nod.

“This is difficult for you, taking a chance on us,” he states.

I bob my head again. “I know this isn’t easy for you, either. I can’t expect you to all of a sudden want to be in a committed relationship. I’m willing to meet you halfway and give this relationship a chance, but I can’t promise I won’t invest my heart.”

Maceo looks up to the dark sky and swallows before looking back down at me, determination set in his face. “If you give me your heart, Josephine, you will never have to worry about me breaking it, at least not intentionally. I can guarantee I will fuck up at some point, but please remember I’m new to this before you decide to throw in the towel.”

“You can’t make that promise,” I say through a weak cry.

Maceo gives me a devastating smile. “I already did, baby. And I keep my promises. I don’t make them unless I’m certain I can hold them. With you, I know this promise is iron-clad.”

Overwhelmed by all the right words, I launch myself at him. He catches me in his arms, helping me crawl up his body ‘till I’m kissing him all over his face and down his neck.

God, he smells like newly fallen snow in a pine forest.I want to bury my nose in his neck, and breathe him in until my head is dizzy and I can’t remember my name.

“As much as I loved taking you outside this morning, I really want to get you into a bed,” he says. “If you don’t stop what you’re doing, I’ll have no choice but to bend you over my bike and take you here.”

I slide down his body. “Well, you better get me back to my condo and into my bed,” I say in a sultry voice.

Maceo puts his hand on my lower back and hustles us back onto his bike, rocketing off through the night.

By the time we reach my condo, I’m panting, and my heart is pounding against my ribs, not from the speed with which he rode his bike, but with desire for Maceo and what tonight will bring.

We’re a mess of tangled arms and tongues and fumbling legs as we attack each other all the way to my front door. My hands shake as I try to get my key in the lock, distracted by his wandering hands and mouth all over my body.

We stumble through the door and Hades woofs at our arrival.Shit. He needs to go out.I run to the back door and wave Hades outside, and he tears off in the backyard. Maceo continues to pay attention to my body with his velvet lips, until Hades comes back inside. He growls at Maceo.

“Hades, it’s okay. Maceo’s welcome here. Go lay down,” I reassure him. He grumbles and clomps back to his bed.

Maceo hauls me by my ass and I wrap my legs around him, and he carries me to the bedroom. He lays me on the bed and makes quick work of removing his clothes, ‘till he’s standing in nothing but his boxer briefs, his erection straining against the material.

I can’t stop myself from drinking him in, and I push up to my elbows to get a better look. He’s both bulk and cut muscle, and the V in his hips etches deep into his skin. His chest is completely hairless, allowing his tattoos to dominate the view.

With hunger in his dark eyes, he steps forward, takes my dress in his hands, and gently pulls it over my head. It falls to the floor at his feet.

Suddenly everything slows down. The rush we started off with has disappeared, and all that’s left is the two of us.

Maceo reaches behind me with one hand and unclasps my bra, freeing my breasts. He groans as his eyes float over me, making my body hum like a tuning fork. He crouches and slides my panties down my legs before standing back up. The way he fixates on me makes me shiver with expectation.

“God, you’re gorgeous,” he says, pulling down his underwear. He grasps his stiff length in one hand, his frenum piercing shining under the head of his cock. I knew he was huge when I felt him this morning, but I had no real visual until now. I’m panting and he’s not even inside me yet.

“Josephine, I promise to worship your body the way you deserve, but right now I need to be inside you. I’ve been thinking about you since we were together this morning, and I can’t wait any longer.”

“I’m not stopping you,” I say, breathless.

Wanting to entice him, I let my legs fall apart, giving him a full view of my most secret parts, dripping with my arousal. His nostrils flare and his eyes grow darker. Like a leopard, he crawls on top of me, hovering above me, as his fiery eyes burn into mine.

Wanting to touch him, I run my hands slowly up his heaving chest, memorizing every hard panel, ‘till I clasp them behind his neck. “Please kiss me.”

Maceo leans forward to claim my lips with the softest touch. The kiss is slow and steady at first, but it builds ‘till our tongues clash together, the barbell on his tongue flicking the inside of my mouth.
