Despite those answers, Liam needed today to be one of those days.

“Do they measure up to what you were hoping?”

Liam finally tore his eyes away from her breasts, though his hands remained eager to continue fondling them. He found Tess smiling with well-deserved confidence and satisfaction. She brimmed with both, especially as his eyes answered her question even before his tongue could.

“They’re perfect,” he answered. “So fucking perfect. I can’t tell you how amazing this is.”

As if his words carried a pleasant aroma, Tess breathed in deeply, lust rumbling in her eyes like the portent of a storm. “I’m glad you like them. We’ll have to visit the pool sometime this summer, too. I have some nice bikini tops that you’ll enjoy seeing me in.”

There it was again. Liam’s balls ached as if her words imprinted a yearning so deeply upon him that it could physically hurt. He steadied himself with a long breath.

No. It wasn’t his satisfaction that he was here to chase. He had a plan. He needed to see it through.

Liam retreated his hands back to the underside of her bra. One, two, three, four; four fingers, two from each hand, began to slip underneath the band holding it so firmly to her smooth body.

“I can’t wait,” he whispered huskily. “Really, I think it might literally kill me if I have to wait until summer.”

Tess glanced down, noticing what he was up to. “Good things come to those who wait. This is all… quite new for us both, so we should pace ourselves.”

Liam paused his advance. “That’s true… but striking while the iron is hot is another way of looking at things.” And he was hot. So very hot. Desire coursed through his veins like lava, practically igniting his fingertips as they rested against her skin.

“How much hotter are you looking for things to end up today?” she asked, guard slightly raised.

“Only as far as you’re comfortable with. Your house, your rules.”

“Meaning that you’d have your way with me if I’d come to your door?”

He stared directly into her eyes, giving her a preview of how ravenous his yearning for her was. “I’ll only go as far as you’re comfortable with. I already know that I’m the luckiest guy alive. I don’t want to spoil that by being too impatient.”

Tess bit her lip, gazing back at him. Her eyes dropped to his arms, traveling toward his wrists, though she couldn’t see anything of his hands due to her breasts blocking the way. She could feel them, though. Their strength, their heat, their yearning.

The woman of his dreams lifted her eyes. “Maybe you can stand to get a little luckier.”

Unable to control his response, he beamed at her. Relief, excitement, and pure, unadulterated joy stampeded through his body.

“Only a little luckier,” Tess reminded him. “When I say stop, you have to stop, all right?”

Liam hastily nodded. “I promise I will.”

“All right. Good.” Swallowing, the gorgeous brunette returned his nod. “Well… have your fun.”

Not wanting to give her any time to reconsider, Liam quickly did as she suggested. Burrowing his fingers underneath her bra’s lower band, his fingertips traced against the underside of her breasts. It was like running his hand through a length of silk streaming by. Every new centimeter his fingers found as he pushed them along the perfect slopes made his body thrum with electricity. He barely breathed, and his thoughts melted before a tidal wave of lustful instinct.

Tess tensed but didn’t stop him, and Liam’s hands tasted more skin still. He added other fingers, eventually slipping them all underneath her bra’s tight constraints. Her breasts compressed because of the addition of his hands, and he slowly but purposefully continued their journey.

Shutting her eyes, Tess shivered as his right hand’s middle finger found her nipple. The stiff point remained invisible to his eyes due to the fabric of her bra, but his touch discovered just how aroused Tess truly was. How arousedhe’dmade her.

He reveled in this discovery. It poured even more confidence into him. Tess Williams, a woman who could have anyone she wanted in her bedroom with little more than the crook of a single finger, had chosen him, had allowed him to arouse her body in a way that no one had in years. The blood pounding in his ears made his own shuddered breath, one of eternal satisfaction, inaudible.

Eventually, his hands reached the same place they’d arrived at on the outside of her light pink sports bra. Her nipples sat under his palms, continuously reminding him of how turned-on she was. Liam’s fingers swirled over her delicious body, and he licked his lips.

“I hope I’ll be able to do this every day,” he told her. “I’ll never be able to get enough of how sexy your body is.”

Tess opened her eyes, which burned with intense heat. “O-only until you find someone more appropriate to date properly.”

It was similar to what she’d said before, yet notably different. The last time she’d mentioned how long their illicit relationship might continue, she’d mentioned its end arriving ifeitherof them found someone they would want to date. Not so this time. Liam allowed himself a few moments to consider if this was an intentional revision of their earlier accord, but he decided not to heap all his hope into it just yet.

He nodded, electing to instead focus on the permission she’d just granted him, even if it was somewhat indirect. He intended to make good use of it.
