Every twitch of that big, hard thing that was definitelynothis thigh.
I was already getting lost in it, my whole being focused on touching my lips to every inch of the smooth skin presented to me. I ran my hands through his hair, loving the feel of the thick strands gliding through my fingers. As Rafe brought me higher, he bit my throat which caused me to arch my back slightly.
“So beautiful,” he whispered. “Don’t run away from me again. Need you.” He spoke so softly that I wasn’t sure if he’d intended me to hear that last part.
“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry,” I repeated over and over. But instead of making it better, the soft words seemed to make him more frantic. His hands clenched my hips tighter, and his lips sucked at my neck.
“Why can’t I stop wanting you? Even when I know you’re lying to me, I still can’t stay away.”
My mind spun at his angry words. He wanted me despite everything I’d done. I experienced an almost dizzying elation at the thought before I shuddered in his arms. It was impossible to hold the train of thought while Rafe was licking my neck and my core was rubbing against his stomach, but I tried anyway. Then I thought of the flash drive.
“Rafe, I wasn’t trying to hurt you. I was scared. That’s why I ran.”
“I know you must be confused by the things you saw. But I would never hurt you, Diana.”
I clutched him tighter, wishing I could show him that it wasn’t about him. I hadn’t run away because of the thingshe’ddone but because of the thingsI’ddone. More than ever, I understood what it was like to do bad things for good reasons. I’d come here under false pretenses but only because I’d truly believed Rafe had stolen my mother’s jewel and murdered my father in cold blood. If there was a way to go back in time and tell the me of a few months ago that I’d been deceived, that the men in my family weren’t the men I’d thought, things would have been different.
Then I cursed myself as a liar because I knew I wouldn’t have changed a thing. Even if I could go back, I wouldn’t stop myself from coming here because otherwise I would have never known Rafe. I would have never known what it felt like to be cherished.
Then I wasn’t thinking at all because Rafe lifted me and slid so deep that my eyes rolled back in my head. I screamed from the sheer pleasure, and Rafe paused, the dark eyes I loved roaming my face to make sure I was okay.
“Too rough?” he whispered.
My nails tightened in his shoulders, and he hissed at the pain.
I tightened my legs around his waist. “Don’t you dare stop!”
He rocked his hips again, grinding deeper. We both moaned at the sensation, and Rafe’s fingers tightened under my ass. I clutched him closer, my hands roaming over his muscular back and shoulders as I hung on for dear life. He must have liked that because he growled, a low, sexy sound that instantly made me wetter before he set a frantic pace that had my head banging against the wall.
“Oh my God!”
I panted, taking in short, sharp breaths as my desire raced out of control. He was so strong, and the fact that he was holding me while he fucked me against the wall was such a turn-on. I purred as the thought of him controlling my body so easily made me think of the other ways he could take control. I wouldn’t have thought I’d ever like the idea of being restrained in any way, but every time he picked me up or held me still so he could do all these dirty, delicious things to me, it was impossible to pretend I didn’t respond.
Soon Rafe was grunting in my ear along with every thrust, and I felt the change come over him. He was rapidly losing control, his hips swinging wildly and his lips moving over mine frantically as he got closer. I loved it, seeing him lost in his pleasure, and I thrilled at the idea that I could make a man as stoic as Rafe lose his mind like this. I tightened my internal muscles around him, which felt so good that I moaned.
When he moved, he hit that spot that I hadn’t even known existed until a few weeks ago, and suddenly I was coming, biting and scratching as I wailed against his shoulder.
“Fuck! I can’t… Diana, I love you.” Rafe squeezed me so tightly that I almost couldn’t breathe, and then he shuddered as he came too.
For a long time we rested there against the wall until he pulled back slightly to put me down. When I looked down and saw the moisture on my thighs, I realized what we’d forgotten in our haste.
A condom.
“Oh shit.”
CHAPTERNINETEEN
Rafe
I didn’t understand why Diana’s expression went from soft and languid to horrified in the space of a second until I looked down. When I saw the moisture on her thighs, I stilled. It took my brain a minute to comprehend what I was looking at since I was still floating on the high of pleasure I could only find in her arms.
“No condom,” she whispered.
I would never admit it to her, but for a brief moment I felt a flash of joy. What was that about? I had never been the type of guy to dream of family, a white picket fence and a little woman waiting for me to come home. Considering my line of work, that was wise. Because having a family that loved you was just one more point of weakness, something your enemies could exploit.
But there was no denying that the idea of Diana getting pregnant and carrying my baby sent a rush of masculine appreciation through me. Shaking off the crazy thoughts, I ran a hand through my hair as I considered how to handle the situation. This had never happened before, which was telling in itself. After this many years, reaching for a condom was an ingrained part of sex.
“I’m sorry. I don’t know what to say. I’ve never forgotten a condom before.”
