Hannah powered the TV off, turning back to Caroline and squeezing her hand. She cocked her head towards the door, grinning when Caroline blushed. “I’m in for a treat, aren’t I?”
Caroline reddened further, shaking her head as she wore a shy smile. “I wouldn’t get too excited.”
But Hannah only dragged her up the stairs, kicking the bedroom door shut once they were safely inside. She sat Caroline down on the edge of the bed, kissing her knuckles. Hannah crouched down in front of her, her blonde hair swept to one side, smiling. “Do you have any idea how you make me feel?”
Caroline exhaled a shaky breath, unsure as to whether Hannah actually wanted her to answer.
“You know, when I met you, I saw so much pain and uncertainty behind your eyes. I saw a woman who didn’t know how to enjoy life anymore. But more than anything, I saw the sheer beauty inside you. Because you do, Caz, you have so much beauty and so much love to offer. And seeing you like this, unsure of yourself, it breaks my heart.”
“I-I… It’s been so long since I had sex,” Caroline murmured, knowing full well how sad that sounded.
Hannah nodded slowly, sitting back on her knees, her hands placed on Caroline’s thighs. “Well, thank God for toys, hey.” Hannah lifted a shoulder. “We don’t need other people to complete us.”
“N-no,” Caroline paused. “I couldn’t even touch myself. It’s only recently that I’ve been able to look back at myself in the mirror without being disappointed.”
Hannah placed her hands against the bed, getting to her feet. And then she stood between Caroline’s legs, tilting her chin as she leaned down into a kiss. But it wasn’t just any kiss. No, this kiss was all-consuming, turning Caroline’s world upside down, her entire body throbbing with an intensity that had the potential to make her pass out. This kiss…God, it was a kiss that told Caroline everything she needed to know. Hannah was here, she wasn’t going to be scared off by anything, and she cared a great deal.
When Hannah pulled back, leaving Caroline breathless in the process, she guided her further back onto the bed, crawling towards her. “You deserve to be happy, Caz. You deserve to feel good about yourself and enjoy an amazing sex life. And being here, knowing you trust me, means the world.”
Caroline shook with anticipation…and nerves. Could they turn out the light? Would Hannah be disappointed when she removed her dress? Probably. Naomi always had been. “H-Hannah,” Caroline pressed a hand to her shoulder, sitting up on one elbow. “Are you sure you want me? That you want to be here tonight?”
Hannah smiled as she leaned forward, nipping at Caroline’s bottom lip. It only left a throbbing between Caroline’s thighs. Hannah’s eyes had suddenly darkened, a devilish look in them. “No, not only tonight. Any night I’m lucky enough to get with you.”
She kissed Caroline slowly, sensually, easing her back down on the mattress. Caroline instinctively placed her arms over her stomach, hiding whatever she could. She carried a few extra pounds, most women did, but she didn’t want Hannah to see her that way.
Sensing that Caroline was drowning in her thoughts, Hannah pulled back. “Do you have any candles?”
Caroline nodded. “Yes, why?”
“Just…trust me.” Hannah climbed from the bed, slipping her heels off and placing them out of the way. “Can I use the decorative ones that are placed around here?”
Caroline nodded again, watching the confidence that oozed from Hannah. Honestly, she was jealous.
Hannah’s eyes landed on the lighter on top of Caroline’s dressing table, lighting one candle, then another…and another. Hannah crossed the room, turning out the light. And then she shrugged, lighting another on the nightstand, and a final one on the chest of drawers.
“Perfect.”
Okay, it was perfect. The lighting, the ambience in the room, it had just calmed Caroline’s nerves dramatically. “I think you could be.”
“Oh, not me. I’m far from perfect.” Hannah offered a sexy smirk as she sat on the edge of the bed, relaxing Caroline further. She wasn’t here toonlyhave sex—that much was clear by the time she took with Caroline. “We all have our imperfections, but sometimes, they make us who we are.” Hannah got comfortable, lying beside Caroline, her hand propping her head up. “But so far, I loveeverythingI see with you.”
“I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint you.” Caroline had never been so forthcoming with her feelings before; talking freely had been knocked right out of her some time ago. Not physically, but talking about how you felt was frowned upon at one time in this house. “But if I’m fucking it all up, you’ll tell me, won’t you?”
“I’m not sure you’ve ever fucked anything up in your life, Caz.” Hannah lifted a hand, stroking a single fingertip from her wrist up to her shoulder. “You take good care of yourself, don’t you? I don’t think I’ve ever felt skin so soft.”
“I have very little else to do with my time, so yes…I focus on improving what I can.” Why was she saying this stuff? That vulnerability was creeping in, and though she’d worked on it for a long time, it had no plans to back away.
Hannah lowered her lips to Caroline’s, smiling against her mouth. “I don’t see a need for any improvements. I wish you could see that too.”
“You’re very sweet…but full of shit.” Caroline laughed as she wrapped a hand around the back of Hannah’s neck. Kissing this woman may be the greatest thing to happen in her lifetime. She never wanted to stop. “I really don’t want to disappoint you,” she whispered against Hannah’s lips.
“Hey,” Hannah replaced her mouth with her thumb, feathering it across Caroline’s bottom lip. “You’re so beautiful. You won’t disappoint me. But the more I lie here kissing you, the more I want to touch you.” Hannah dropped her hand, running it up and down Caroline’s thigh. Her body quivered, arousal pooling between her legs. “MayI touch you?”
“Y-yes.” Caroline’s breath caught when she stared back at Hannah, desire flashing in her eyes. This woman, without a doubt, wanted her. And as much as Caroline couldn’t fathom why, she wasn’t worrying about it tonight. Hannah’s hands, her breath, her lips…all felt too good against her skin. “Hannah,” she whispered as she took in a sharp breath. Hannah paused, watching her expectantly. “Thank you.”
“No, thankyou. For trusting me. For letting me be here with you tonight.” Hannah got to her knees at the foot of the bed, her hands disappearing beneath Caroline’s dress. “I don’t pretend to understand how hard things have been for you, but I hope one day you’ll let me in.” A thrill rushed through Caroline when she felt her underwear being slid down her thighs, over her knees, and thrown to the floor. “But tonight, I want you to just lie back and enjoy every moment of this. I knowIcertainly will.”
“Oh, God.” Caroline’s chest heaved as Hannah pushed her dress up higher, lowering her head and kissing her way up and down Caroline’s legs. This woman knew exactly what she was doing.
