He felt her withdraw slightly and looked up at her. Raising her chin with his hand, he forced her eyes to meet his. Something there that had him retreating.

“It’s okay, we can talk another time.” And he meant it, Ted realized. He wanted to know everything there was to know about this woman, but not now. Now was for this, them.

He kissed her breasts softly, leaving a wet trail down each slope as he licked her.

“This will hurt you, Mandy.”

“I know.” Her brown eyes were deep pools of emotion.

He took her mouth in a deep kiss that he was sure touched his soul. A terrifying thought, and one he knew he’d think about later when he could form a rational thought.

Easing inside her slick sheath, Ted kept his lips on Mandy’s. Her fingers were wrapped around his neck; they tightened as he pushed farther inside her.

She felt like heaven encasing him in her slick, tight heat. With a final thrust, he took her innocence.

“Mandy?” Her eyes were clenched shut. “Talk to me.”

“It hurt, b-but it eases.”

“I’m sorry, baby—”

“No.” She placed her fingers over his mouth. “Don’t say sorry. It’s wonderful.”

He placed a kiss on the palm, then eased out and back in. Her eyes locked on to his, and he couldn’t look away. He kept his rhythm slow, and the tension inside him was almost unbearable, but he wouldn’t rush her… not this time. Ted was determined to make it as good as he could, especially considering it was her first time.

He cupped a breast, then rolled the nipple, and she moaned.

“Come for me again, baby.” She did, arching up off the sofa with a cry, and he followed. The sensation was mind-blowing and left him weaker than a kitten.

Reversing their positions, Ted lay with Mandy along the length of his body. She was relaxed, no tension in her, and he felt the same. It felt right holding her like this. For some reason he felt she was safe here with him. But as she wasn’t unsafe, why did he feel that way?

Mandy had always brought out his protective instincts. From his first glance at her, he’d thought she looked like a bird with a broken wing. Which was why he’d tried so hard to keep his distance from her. He’d been protective of his sister too.

“Thank you.”

He pushed the hair off her face so he could see her eyes. They were looking up at him.

“For what?”

“Seeing that I needed to be stronger and could be. For allowing me to use your gym, and for that.”

Ted swallowed. “That?”

“The most wonderful initiation into the sexual act. I will be forever grateful to you for helping me to see what can be between a man and a woman.”

Ted didn’t like the word initiation, because for some reason it implied that she may one day have sex with someone other than him, and no way in hell could he contemplate that.

“Why did you believe it couldn’t be wonderful?”

“When you’re a virgin at my age you think about things like that. I guess I built it into something it clearly isn’t.”

“Why did you leave Detroit, will you tell me that much, Mandy?”

She withdrew from him physically and emotionally, getting off his body to reach for her clothes.

“Tell me why…, please?”

She pulled on her underwear and tights, then grabbed her shirt.
