We didn’t speak much, but his hand did drift over to mine eventually, and we laced our fingers together. It was peaceful, for once.

He continued to hold my hand as we passed through the hotel lobby and to the elevator, but I was well aware that the sweetness of the moment was starting its inevitable morph into something hotter and sharper. We are both done waiting, I thought, after almost dying.

Once inside the elevator, Gunner didn’t press the button for the floor our suite was on. Instead, he pulled a key out of his pocket and inserted it into the subtle keyhole beneath all the buttons, turning it. I shot him an odd look, but he only smirked.

“Just trust me.”

The elevator climbed, and climbed, and climbed. When it dinged and the door slid open, there was no hallway to greet us, just a single small entryway and one door. Gunner’s key worked on this door too, oddly enough. He watched my face as he pushed the door open, and while I hadn’t thought I could feel any more surprise today, I had been wrong. It was stunning.

Our new room wasn’t much bigger than our last, but everything was elevated; the enormous bed was covered in puffy pillows and red rose petals, I could see the two- person jacuzzi tub and stone shower in the bathroom, and instead of sliding glass doors leading to a balcony that faced a neighboring high rise, this room had floor to ceiling windows with an unobstructed view of the city. The back wall was nothing but glass, and the effect was both exhilarating and a little bit scary.

“What is this?” I asked in awe.

“It’s the honeymoon suite. Not that we’re on our honeymoon, or anything, it was just the most romantic room they said they had”. Watching Gunner stutter over his words made me feel giddy. “I already had all of our stuff moved over, but if it’s too much, or if we’re going to fast, then I–”

When I kissed him, I made sure to put all the emotions I felt swirling inside me into it, standing on my tiptoes and pressing my lips into his with force. He froze at first, but it didn’t take any time at all for him to respond with all the fire that I expected. We had been circling each other for days, barely holding back from this moment, and now it was time.

Gunner slammed the door behind him, and shed clothes in a flurry of movements. As soon as I threw my tank top to the floor, he was back on me, pushing me against the wall and ravishing my mouth with his lips, teeth, and tongue until I was a squirming, panting mess. He pinned both my hands above my head with one of his, taking his time drawing a path from my mouth, down my neck, to my collarbone, and finally to the swell of my cleavage with nips and licks.

I felt his free hand snake around to my back, and settle on the hook of my lace bra, but he hesitated., “This isn’t just about sex, Rachel, I want you to know that. If you want to take things slower, or just think things over, tell me now. Because what I feel for you, it goes beyond the physical.”

“I know,” I told him, speaking past the lump in my throat that his unexpectedly sweet confession brought. “I feel the same.”

He made a noise deep in his chest, deep and rumbling, pushing his body even closer to mine. He dipped his head down, speaking directly into the shell of my ear. “Tell me you want this,”

“I do. I wantyou.”

I could have said more, but there was no time left for talking. Gunner released me and jerked his shirt over his head. It was all I could do not to moan, just seeing the hard lines of his muscles. He was built like a warrior, not a spare inch of fat on him, and every movement he made was just a display of the power coiled in him.

With the shirt gone, he completed the task of unhooking my bra, dropping it to the floor with the rest of our things. Still against the wall, I arched my back for him, and watched in satisfaction as his pupils blew wide with lust seconds before he was on me again.

Gunner knelt in front of me, cupping my tits in his huge, calloused hands, flicking his thumbs over my nipples. I grabbed onto his shoulders as he repeated the motion over and over, chest heaving, and when he finally sucked one hard peak between his lips, I felt like my knees might buckle.

He moved from one nipple to the other. The heat of his mouth combined with the cold air when he pulled away was wonderful, but he was making me needier and needier. I wanted more.

“I could spend all day sucking these tits,” Gunner rasped, looking up at me, the brown-green of his eyes almost completely swallowed by the black of his pupils. “Would you like that, Rachel?”

“God, yes,” I panted. “But later.”

“Impatient?” he teased, fingers hooking the waistband of my leggings and working them down, panties and all.

“Full of,” I paused, sucking in a breath when he hooked one of my now-bare legs over his shoulder and planted a kiss on my inner thigh. “Anticipation.”

His hands skated up my body, palms flattening on my lower back. “Anticipation for what?”

I looked down my naked form at him kneeling between my legs, and the erotic sight before me allowed me to throw caution to the wind. “For you to fuck me.”

The noise he made when the words left my mouth was almost inhuman. Something that might have frightened me, had I not known who this man was. Because I did, it sent a full body shiver through me, the muscles in my lower stomach clenching.

In contrast to the noise he just made, Gunner’s fingers were gentle as they parted my pussy lips, exposing me to him completely. I knew I was soaking wet, but if my memory of how he felt grinding against me at the library was accurate, I was going to need all the help I could get to fit him inside.

I expected a slow seduction with his mouth, too, but I was mistaken. Gunner sucked my clit into his mouth with no preamble, the pleasure from it so intense that I threw my head back against the wall.

“Gunner.”

After a few sucks, he switched to exploring the whole of my pussy with his tongue, as if memorizing me, before tracing a circle around my clit and starting the process all over again. One of his hands clamped on the thigh draped over his shoulder, while the other held me in place.

I could come from this, fast,but it was not what I want. I wanted to come with him inside me.
