He expected Tulsi to laugh, but she only ducked her head, letting her hair fall around her face.

“Hey,” he said softly, cupping her cheek in his hand. “I was just kidding. It was a joke, Tuls.”

“I know…I just don’t want Clementine to feel left out,” she said softly. “You know, if we really do have this big family and she’s the only one without a daddy.”

“She won’t be,” Pike promised. “I’ll be her daddy, too. There might be a learning curve since I’ve never done the dad thing before, but I’ll keep at it until I get it right with Clem. And we can talk adoption when we’re all ready, since her bio dad isn’t in the picture.”

He paused, waiting for Tulsi to say something, but she stayed quiet.

“Tulsi?” He threaded his fingers gently through her hair. “You okay?”

“I’m…so good,” she said, but there was a hitch in her voice and when she looked up her eyes were shining. “I love you.”

“I love you, too,” he said, unable to shake the feeling that there was something she wasn’t telling him. “Are you sure everything is all right?”

She nodded. “Perfect. You’re a good man, you know that?”

“And you’re a good woman.” He kissed her softly on the forehead, deciding to let it go. Tulsi would talk about what was bothering her when she was ready. There was no point pushing the issue, especially when there were so many more enjoyable things they could be doing.

“Very good, except when you’re bad,” he added, his hands skimming down her bare back, from her shoulders to the irresistible curve of her ass. “And I like that, too.”

“Oh yeah?” Tulsi smiled as her legs spread wider and she rocked sensuously against him. “You mean like this?”

“Just like that.” He bit his lip as his fingers pressed into the curves of her hips. Moments later, Tulsi’s breasts were in his mouth and her heat was encasing him as he thrust up inside her—hard and deep, but not quite deep enough.

“I want you from behind,” he said, groaning when Tulsi whimpered—that soft, hungry sound all he needed to hear to know she wanted that as much as he did.

He pulled out and rolled them both over, pinning Tulsi’s slim body flat on the bedspread beneath him before he slid back inside her from behind. She spread her legs and arched her hips, taking him deeper until his cock was buried to the hilt and every thrust ended with his pelvis rocking against her sweet ass.

As soon as they found their rhythm, Pike reached beneath Tulsi, sliding his hand down her stomach to circle her clit with his fingers. He kissed her neck as he played with her until she arched more powerfully into his thrusts, her breath coming in swift pants so sexy Pike couldn’t resist nipping at her shoulder with his teeth.

“Yes,” she cried out, squirming beneath him, building the tension coiling low in his body. “Do it again. Bite me again.”

And so he did, digging his teeth into the muscled flesh near the curve of her neck as he rammed inside her slick channel, groaning as another wave of heat rushed from her body in response. Feeling her juices coating his cock, realizing how intensely he affected the woman in his arms, was all it took to send Pike over. He came with a cry, circling Tulsi’s clit with his fingers until he felt her tumble over seconds later, her contractions milking every drop of release from his body.

“So good,” he murmured as they lay entwined after, catching their breath. He kissed a trail along her shoulder, his final kiss ending in a curse when he saw the teeth marks near her neck.

“What’s wrong?” she asked, shifting beneath him.

“I left a mark.” Pike ran his fingertips lightly over the faintly red skin. “Shit, Tuls, you’re going to have a bruise.”

“It’s okay, baby,” she said, obviously hearing the distress in his tone. “It doesn’t hurt. I liked it. I asked you to do it, don’t feel bad.”

Pike pulled out gently, still ashamed of himself. “But I should have had more control. And what if people see it tomorrow? What are you going to say? Your bridesmaid dress is strapless, right?”

“It’s really no big deal.” Tulsi rolled over with a happy sigh and stretched her arms over her head. “It’s probably time people realized I’m a sex maniac who likes to be bitten when my lover takes me from behind.”

Pike snorted and swatted the side of her ass, but that only made her laugh.

“It’s always the quiet ones, you know,” she said, continuing to giggle. “We’re all wild sex perverts, with dark, forbidden desires.”

Pike shook his head, but he couldn’t keep from grinning. She was too wickedly cute to keep a straight face. “How about I help you cover it up with some makeup tomorrow morning and we keep your dark, forbidden desires between you and me, wild thing?”

Tulsi rolled her eyes with a dramatic sigh. “Okay, party pooper. I guess that’ll work, too, if you think it’s best.”

Pike laughed. “I think Clem came by the ornery streak honestly is what I think.” He drew Tulsi back onto his chest and kissed the top of her head. “But I’m glad I’m the only one who knows you’re trouble.”

“Me too” Tulsi whispered. “I love you, Pike.”
