We ride the rollercoaster three more times and a few of the other rides. Onyx buys hot chocolate and mini doughnuts, while singing his own version of ‘Happy Birthday.’ We stay until the festival closes, my cheeks hurt from smiling, and I’m filled with so much happiness, my insides can barely contain it.
* * *
“Are you sure this is okay?”I ask for the hundredth time since we left the festival and Onyx drove us to his house. My nerves jump the entire time when we head into the gated community. I’ve never spent time over this way, preferring to ignore the rich and spoiled kids who go to my school and cause trouble with Corey. I haven’t been interested in anyone over here since the issue with Jackson when we were little.
“I promise.” He laughs softly, taking my hand in his and placing our joined hands on his lap. “It’s just me and Terrance and he was going to be gone tonight. Some party or something.”
I angle my body so I’m facing him. “What about your parents?”
Onyx’s jaw clenches, and when he looks at me, I can see the coolness in his eyes. “They’re in New York. My dad is on my side, though, and trying to keep me out of arm’s reach of my grandfather. This was all his idea, but there is no way he’d leave his castle to come here.”
My eyes fall and I realize he knows exactly how it feels being alone. At least he has his cousin. “I’m glad Terrance can be here with you.”
Onyx’s face snaps over to me and the warmer smile I’m used to returns. “He’s not bad company. I think I’ll prefer having you here though.”
My cheeks heat and I wonder how I’m truly going to get through the next few hours. I don’t think I can sleep next to Onyx without wanting to reach out and run my hands over his skin or to cuddle into his side. Lately, when we’re alone together, I can’t keep my hands off him and he can’t keep his lips off my skin or my lips. The dirty things he says to me are dangerous to my heart. I already want him in every way.
We walk into his house side by side, his hand grasping mine, with my bag over his shoulder. The sky is filled with stars and the cold air barely touches me because I’m already on fire for him. Onyx leads me upstairs and down a hallway with four doors.
“That's the bathroom in the middle. Terrance’s room is here.” He points to the door right off the stairs. “And mine is down here.” We walk toward the end of the hallway.
Onyx stops right outside the door, pulling me so I’m facing him. Our hands tangle together. He dips down and places a soft kiss against my lips. When I open my eyes, he’s watching me, gauging my reaction to his next words. “The guest room is right next to the hallway bathroom. Mine is roomier though.”
A giggle bursts out of my mouth. His lips twitch. “I want you to know you have options.”
“It's my birthday, remember.” I let go of his hands and place them on his sides, letting my body lean into his. My heart beats out of control as I tilt my head up and run my lips against his jaw. “I want to stay with you.”
His body quakes and his eyes clash with mine. He watches, reading me, and whatever he sees, he suddenly realizes what I want. I want him. I need him. “I’ll never tell you no,” Onyx whispers, his hands sliding into my hair and angling my head back. His eyes are soft yet fierce when he looks at me. I reach my hand up and cup his face, dragging my fingertips along his jaw.
Blindly, Onyx opens the door and leads me into his room. He only steps away from me to lock the door. When he turns back, I’m not ready for the emotion that pours out of him and bleeds into the room. It’s strong, it steals the words from my mouth, and my mind goes blank. All that matters is Onyx.
I take two steps then I’m scooped up in his arms, my legs winding around his middle, and his lips take mine hard. A moan escapes my mouth at the contact, which makes him grip my hips harder. Onyx maneuvers us farther into his room until he reaches the bed. He sits on the edge, while I straddle his lap with my hands in his hair. I fight to get my body as close to his as possible. There is an urgency in my heart to feel his skin against mine, to be his, to fill myself with him. Onyx must feel the same urgency bouncing off of me because his hands push my sweatshirt and top up over my head. I grab for his shirt next, yanking off the layers until we’re skin on skin. Goosebumps erupt over my flesh and I shiver when his hands run greedily up and down my back. His fingers grasp the clasp on my bra, and as I inhale, the material falls away.
“You okay?” Onyx asks breathlessly against my lips.
“I want more,” I tell him, and he groans in response. Onyx stands, taking me with him, and I laugh.
“Take my pants off,” he orders, the sexy gruffness of his voice has me pressing my thighs together. My fingers shake, but I manage to get his button undone and grab the loops before pulling them down to his feet. I’ve seen Onyx in various states of undress over the past few weeks but every time makes my stomach clench. He’s beautiful. I never thought I would think of a man’s legs as being sexy, but his are tone and the muscles flex with his movements. He steps out of his jeans and socks, grinning, before grabbing my pants and pulling them down next.
I gasp a little once the air touches my completely naked body. Onyx doesn’t hesitate. He rises, taking me with him. My legs lock around his waist, his hands under my thighs, and he brings his mouth down to mine. Our kisses this time are slow and needy. Emotions that scare me fill my chest, making it ache. Onyx has no idea what he does to me. What this will do to me, but I refuse to let him go. One of his knees hits the mattress, and then the other, our lips break apart and he gazes into my eyes, while my back meets the mattress.
One of his hands comes up, his fingers dragging along my jaw and down my neck. “I want this more than anything. It’s going to change things. Tell me you know that, Little Star.”
He places kisses along my jaw, in the hollow of my neck, and the curve of my shoulder. I whimper like the virgin I am, but I’m not scared. I meet his gaze, my body thrusting up into his, making him hiss between his teeth from the contact. Of course it will change things. I’m falling for him. There is no way I’ll ever not think about this night for the rest of my life. I can’t speak or tell him these things yet. Somehow, though, I manage to nod my head.
“No,” Onyx shakes his head in response, “you don’t understand yet, but you will.”
My hands skate down his naked back. I can feel his heart beating frantically against mine. We’ve already talked. I don’t like to think of his history, but there isn’t anything I can do about it. He’s clean. I’m safe. He knows I’m clean. I’ve never been touched by anyone but him.
Nerves flip through me as he settles over me, forcing my thighs apart. His fingers trail down and dip between my thighs, sliding along my slit before pressing into me. I groan at the contact, my hips lifting to meet his gentle thrusts. My mind feels chaotic, the only thoughts I can form are of him and the magic he seems to create inside me.
“Onyx,” I breathe his name and his eyes shoot back to mine, “I need you. Please.” My hands run along his cheeks, my thumbs along his lips. Those same lips that start to curve into a devilish smile, making my heart rapidly thud.
“Oh, Star. You have no idea.”
I don’t get a chance to respond before his lips seal over mine. He devours my mouth with strong lips, his tongue dancing against mine. I’m so consumed; I don’t even realize that he’s positioned himself at my entrance until I feel the tip of his cock inside me. I gasp, and he swallows it down. My eyes open and he’s already staring at me, watching. Our lips are only a breath away from one another, and I pant into his mouth with every inch he works into me.
I swallow back the pain and try to get my body to relax around him. The unfamiliar pressure is something I’ll get used to. Onyx’s eyes darken, as if he can read the thoughts in my mind. His nostrils flair and his cheeks are tinged red. I grip him tighter, and push my chest into him. Onyx slides deeper and my body shakes.
