One of her small, graceful hands drew down the center of his bare chest, sending sparks along his skin, her mouth tilting closer. “Sam.”
He wasn’t strong. His resolve was as brittle as a twig during a drought, ready to snap at any moment. Sam steeled himself as much as he could, because if he allowed himself to tumble down with her, he might not have the desire to ever escape. “Have you realized that you’re not actually mad?” he asked in a low, calm voice.
She nodded. “I’m not mad.”
“Good.” He grabbed her arm, rotating her to the door. “You should probably start packing your stuff.”
Sam turned the knob, the door cracking open before her hand raised, slamming it shut. The front of his body collided with her back as Luna became an immovable mountain.
“No,” she said. “I’m not done with you. I know you want me.”
Yeah, no shit. He couldn’t hide this fact any more than he could hide an erection in a bath towel, something he was currently familiar with. “Stop it, Luna. Get out of my apartment.”
“No,youstop it.”
“You’re the most stubborn woman—”
“I don’t know what switched between the other night and today, but I’m not leaving until whatever is going on between us gets hashed out. So, if you want to put on some clothes and get comfortable, that’s fine because I’m still going to be right here. But between you and me, I’d rather you didn’t put any clothes on.”
Well, those words made everything harder. He swallowed, gathering his strength. “I don’t…” She leaned against him. “I shouldn’t…” Her head tipped sideways, exposing her slender neck to him and he inhaled the full scent of flowers and cotton candy. Of their own accord, his arms grasped around her waist, his nose pressing against her skin, all his senses experiencing paradise.
She sighed, rotating to face him before kissing his lips at a slow, tender pace, drawing him deeper and deeper into this fog of sensations. He didn’t even notice her fingers running along the edge of his towel, until he becameveryaware. Her lovely hazel eyes lifted to his and Sam nodded. A second later his towel lay in a heap at his feet, and she took hold of his dick with her hand, grasping it firmly. He drew in a sharp breath, breaking away from her mouth. “Lu.” He rested his head against a fist on the door as she stroked him and kissed the skin along the pulse of his neck, his breathing becoming uneven. It was the most delicious torture.
Her eyes were dark and glittering. She was the type of audacious person who’d wear red while walking past a bullpen before tossing her head back and laughing as the teased animal raged…or begged. He wasn’t beyond begging at this point.
Two years ago, Sam was particularly lonely and wasn’t sure what to do about it. He had downloaded a dating app, purchased a box of condoms, becauseWhy the hell not?Logging on for the first time, he’d been so overwhelmed by the prospect of trying to establish a connection with someone, he never took the first step and soon deleted the app altogether, stuffing the condoms somewhere in his bedroom. At this exact moment, his overstimulated brain was trying to pinpoint where he’d stashed the box, like a horny pirate attempting to locate an old treasure without the use of a map.
He grabbed both of Luna’s hands, disconnecting her from him and locking them against the surface of the door on either side of her head, giving them both a moment to think. “What do you want, Luna?”
Her skin was flushed but her voice was confident. “The same as you. Just this.”
The condoms. They were under his bed.
Sam eased the grip on her wrists, his eye drawing to the dip between her collarbone, wishing to circle his tongue there. A breath shuttered from his lungs, the final resolve leaving his body. “Okay.” His head dropped to her neck, pressing his mouth to her warm skin, inhaling her sweet scent. Her arms enveloped his neck and head. Luna could have whatever she wanted as long as she continued to show this kind of mercy to him. He wanted to weep.
Sam didn’t weep, because the other half of him was so aroused at this point, he would either take her against the door or carry her to the bedroom. Reality told him neither option would be good for his knee, but when had his dick ever been considerate for any other body part?
Instead, Sam decided to go with pulling and kissing Luna on a direct trajectory to his bedroom. After he deposited her on the mattress, he sat on the edge of the bed, his hand sweeping beneath the frame and locating the box of condoms, much to his relief. Finally! Something went right for him. However, his celebration was short-lived when his fumbling fingers had trouble breaking the outside plastic wrapping and had to resort to using his teeth, ending with a mouth full of dirt particles. He coughed.
“Ew. Dusty. There’s probably a metaphor here about your sex life,” she said while releasing a small laugh.
“Can you at least pretend not to notice? I’d like to have some dignity and not look as desperate as I feel right now.”
“Are you sure those are still good? How long do condoms last before they expire?”
Oh, dear God, no. It seemed cruel for something like the passage of time cockblocking him at this moment. With his heart beating in the depths of his stomach, he snatched a condom wrapper and scanned the package for a date. Sam released a sigh of relief. “It’s still good for another year.” He ripped the squared packaging and rolled one on.
Luna traced a finger along his back “But you were a little scared, right?”
“No, I was perfectly cool. Not worried at all.” He glanced at her. “Okay, I was a little nervous. Would you blame me?”
“No, because then you’d have to face my wrath.” Luna removed her shoes with her feet.
He stretched alongside her body, any weariness from earlier had melted away. Everything inside him was focused and ready. “Like I could have predicted I would be serving myself up to her majesty today.”
She narrowed her eyes as he helped peel her shirt from her body. “Maybe if you hadn’t been hiding from me, you would have gotten a hint.”
He laughed. “I told you, I wasn’t being sneaky. And you’re not supposed to be getting mad at me right now.”
