Phillip trailed his lips down along her chin to her neck. Shivering where he licked and laved, she tightened her grip on his shoulders, trusting him to keep her upright.
“I am sorry, I know I said I would be there to help you.”
“I do not give a damn about that. I care about you and me. Us.” A shuddering breath. “I cannot protect you if you are not letting me know what is going on.”
Fyre paused for a moment, pushing away the desire licking her veins and focusing on his words. And the tone.
“You were scared for me.”
“Yes.” His admission came with no hesitation.
She moved her touch from his shoulders to his face, touching the features she had memorized and could visualize even with no light. The gray eyes, hawklike nose, thin lips that delivered such passionate kisses. Lean features that more often than not scowled.
Until he looks at me.
There was this expression he got when he watched her. Kind of a longing, loving one. She couldn’t quite name it, but she never saw anyone else receive a look like that.
“Why were you scared for me?” He didn’t say anything, just held her tighter. She pulled back, scoring her fingers along his neck. “Tell me what is going on.”
Phillip lifted her and carried her to the bed. It didn’t take long and soon they were both lying there, Fyre once again warm in a way only this man could make her. Body draped on top of his, she snuggled close as he held her loosely against him, hands stroking along her back. Her legs were inside his, bracketed, and there was no way to ignore his hardness as it pressed into her while she lay upon him.
“Cara.” Phillip kept his voice low.
Seeking inside his shirt, Fyre closed her eyes in the darkness of the room, allowing her hands to skim along his heated skin until she pushed them behind his back, holding him as he held her.
“What about her?” It was sad, really, that she wasn’t shocked to hear her sister-in-law’s name from his lips. That woman had always been someone Fyre didn’t trust.
“She was seen picking the lock to my office and going in to get information from the books.”
“I would not be surprised. Especially if whoever she is working with or for were offering her money. Who did she give it to?”
“We have not seen her alone with any male other than Elonne.”
“Why have you not been checking out the women there? We are just as capable of being vindictive and conniving as are men.”
He nipped the shell of her ear. “Hard for me to follow a woman around without appearing suspicious, baby.”
“And I was not there to help you.” She sank into him. “I am sorry, my lord.”
“You should be. But not for that. You should be sorry because you had me scared and worried.” His hands moved down to her ass and squeezed.
“I needed space.”
Phillip thrust his hips up, pushing that erection into her more. “How much space? And starting when?”
Fyre sat and lifted her nightgown so it was out of the way. His fingers had already freed himself from his breeches. It didn’t take much at all for her to rise a bit more, curl her fingers around his thickness and guide him home into her as she sank back down.
“Not that much and later. Much later.” She rocked on him, biting her lower lip as he filled her.
Nerve endings alive and sparking, she took a moment to gather her breath. He gripped her hips, holding her in place.
“Fuck, you feel perfect on my cock, baby.”
Letting go of the bunched material, she leaned forward, bracing her hands on his chest. “Move,” she demanded.
His chuckle vibrated beneath her palms. “No. Take it from me. Ride me.”
She closed her eyes in frustration and need. “I do not know how, I have never…”
He released one hip and sank his fingers in her hair, guiding her down to him. A brush of his lips. “There is nothing you can do wrong here, baby. Try something. If you do not like it, try something else. Show me what you like. Teach me how to pleasure you how you want, in the ways you enjoy.”
Face hot, she sat back, knowing if there had been light she would not be able to do this. She was comfortable with him, yes, but taking the initiative like this? It was something she would have had to build up to, if he could see her. But as it was dark, she could pretend this was nothing more than another fantasy.
With Phillip.
“What if I do not know how I like it other than what you have shown me?”
He ran his hands up her side, thumbs swiping along her taut nipples before settling once more upon her hips.
