Oh, that’s right.I’m supposed to be going with the flow.

I can do that. . . I think.

“You know,” he starts. Standing, he crosses the small room and returns to me, caressing the side of my neck and then running his fingers into the hair at the back of my head. “If you’re uncomfortable or have changed your mind, I can go. I know how things can spiral in unexpected directions at this hour.” His voice is deep, the tone befitting the night.

I’d like to think I’d choose self-preservation, but with his lips against that spot just under my ear and his breath heating my skin, I wrap my arms around his neck and give him more access. His sharp inhale causes goose bumps to ripple against my skin, and then the lightest of kisses are sprinkled along my jaw until he finds my lips.

“I want you to stay.”

He tilts my head back, my chin nearly touching the bottom of his, and then presses his mouth to mine, and whispers, “I was hoping you’d say that.” Holding my face between his hands, he kisses me so hard that my back hits the wall.

My breathing is as wild as my hands, which travel across the broad width of his shoulders to find purchase. Then he stops, his eyes searching mine between panting breaths. Goose bumps ripple across my skin and as good as he feels now, greedily, I want more.

Taking my hand, he leads me to the edge of the bed, and whispers, “Are you sure?”

“You warned me the first time we met.”

He nods, his gaze dipping down momentarily. “And you foolishly let me in.”

This time, I lift his chin with my hand. “I don’t know what happened in your past, but believe me when I tell you, I love a redemption story.”

“Where have you been all my life?” His deep and smooth voice is sexy as he speaks so close that his breath coats my lips in a gentle sweeping kiss.

“I’ve been right here all along.”

Without a word, his eyes skim over my body and then he reaches down to the hem of my dress. Pulling it slowly up my body and then over my head, Harbor looks at me with lust coloring his eyes a deeper shade of brown. So I stand there, basking in his gaze.

His jeans and shirt come off, and we’re left standing practically naked together. The room suddenly feels hotter, but a deliciously forbidden sensation sparks in the air like two live wires coming together.

He sits down on the mattress and takes my hands, holding them between us. I’ve never felt more beautiful than I do when he’s staring at me like he’s the luckiest guy in the world.

Bringing me to his lap, he kisses my shoulder, and then looks into my eyes. “Does this feel right?”

“No.” I turn in his arms, straddling him and kissing him on the mouth. Pushing him back, he falls on the bed lying flat. I drop my hands to either side of his head and kiss his shoulder.

He asks, “No?”

Feeling sexy.

Feeling powerful.

Feeling more myself than I ever have before.

I kiss his mouth, and then whisper, “But this does.”

Fucking comes naturally.

Fucking Lark though. . . there’s no way I’m going to be able to make this last by how she’s moving on top of me—kissing me like she’ll lose the chance and grinding her hips against mine, her heat against my erection.

Little coos become mewls with each gyrate. I swear she’s going to get off on me before I even have a chance to slip on a condom. I run my hands from her shoulders over her blades down to the small of her back and then lower over the mounds of that great ass. Keeping it right there feels so good that I might just get off as well.

But patience has always been a struggle of mine. I flip around to the mattress and roll over on top of her, my knee holding her legs apart so I can settle between them. And the scrap of material covering her pussy is not going to do anything to keep me from making her feel incredible, except this underwear which is strangling the fuck out of me right now. I need to get some relief so I can focus on her instead.

I push up above her, and ask, “You want to take them off, or do you want me to do it?”
