Lily willed her body under control, replying, “Thanks for the reminder,” then reached for the spoon in the coleslaw. She managed to gain some semblance of composure by the time they sat down across from each other at a picnic table and she eyed his loaded plate. “Will you have room for cake after eating all that?”
He removed his Stetson, the look in his eyes as arousing as his touch. “I have a healthy appetite, Lily, and, trust me, I’ll be ready for cake after I show you Brett’s gazebo out back.”
“Gazebo?” His teasing innuendos sent her thoughts straight into the gutter, imagining a semi-private enclosure away from the party.
Reed bit into his burger, nodding and swallowing before replying, “He had it built last year. We can watch the sunset from there.”
As nice as that sounded, she was more than ready for him to get naked with her tonight and hoped he didn’t intend to wait much longer, guests or not. A month ago, she never would have entertained such an idea or believed her desire for one man could render her so needy. Others joined them at the table, a welcome distraction from her wayward thoughts. Reed introduced her to more relatives she wouldn’t be able to keep straight, and she listened with half an ear to them talk until she’d swallowed the last bite of cheeseburger.
Reaching for her iced tea, she commented with a groan, “I need to walk off some of this food. Those burgers were huge.”
“Gluttonous minds think alike.” He picked up the plates and tossed them in a nearby trash can before taking her hand and tugging her to her feet.
Standing, she stuttered on a laugh. “We’re going now?”
“Yes, now.” Hauling her against him, he gave her a quick, hard kiss. “That’s what you want, and pleasing you, seeing to your needs, is my top priority.”
Reed had her at the word “needs,” and Lily didn’t even care who noticed their departure, following him with her heart tripping and body quaking with enthusiasm. They strolled around the side of Brett’s large ranch home and followed the gravel walk out to the gazebo, her eyes drawn to the sun inching lower on the western horizon. Painting the skyline in a blaze of glory, with shades of lavender dipping into the remaining streaks of red and yellow, the calming yet vibrant scene took her breath away, no matter how many times she watched it. Much like her continuing response to Reed from the moment they met again in line at the charity auction, she mused, sliding her gaze up to him as he opened the gazebo door.
Small white lights adorned both the outside edge of the gazebo’s cone-shaped roof and all around the inside where the octagon walls connected with the high ceiling. While not bright, they offered enough illumination for Lily to search Reed’s five-o’clock shadowed face and read the desire in those extraordinary eyes when he tossed his Stetson onto the padded bench. Her pulse fluttered in response to his carnal look as his gaze raked down her body, her nipples peaking, pushing against her thin bra, aching for his mouth. She wasn’t a flirt and had little experience with seduction, or even instigating sex. The few men she’d dated before John weren’t shy about getting her into bed, and her husband had a one-track mind, never giving her the chance to come on to him.
Reed sat down on the bench and pulled her between his knees, keeping a grip on her hand. “What’s going through your head, Lily?”
Talk about seductive.His deep baritone resonated in the enclosed room, faint echoes of laughter, a lone wolf’s cry, and the constant click of cicadas the only other sounds filtering through the thin walls.
“I’m wondering how to get the nerve to seduce you instead of the other way around this time. I have as much experience in that as I do your kink.” The look of proud approval etched on his face made uttering that flaw worth the embarrassment.
“We have plenty of time for you to practice, but not tonight. Speaking of kink though...” His eyes remained glued to her face as he slowly lowered her zipper. “I believe I mentioned a spanking.”
Lily wasn’t quite sure whether she was dumbfounded or electrified by hearing him mention a spanking again as he worked her jeans and panties down to her ankles. She craved his hands on her again in the worst way, and, God help her, if that happened by way of butt slaps, she discovered she didn’t care. The prickles his calloused palms left behind as he followed her clothes down her legs helped her come to that quick decision, and, when he bent forward to take one very slow lick between her pussy lips, it was all she could do to keep from begging.
She shuddered, mumbling his name on a breathy moan. “Reed.”
Palming her butt cheeks, he asked, “Saying red will still stop me, so, is that a yes, Lily?”
“Yes.”
Reed didn’t give her a chance for second thoughts, maneuvering her until she lay facedown across his rock-hard thighs, her head dangling over the end of the bench. The rapid beat of her heart thundered in her ears as the blood rushed to her face, her buttocks tensing when he rested his rough palm on one cheek. “Just once, I would like to be with you without having to rush.”
“Me, too.” A few uninterrupted hours to roll around completely naked with him would be nice.
“Deep breath, Lily.”
She inhaled and braced for a stinging blow, but he surprised her with a light tap that warmed her buttock, but that was all. Oddly let down, she didn’t think before turning her head around and saying, “Is that all there is to it?”
He shook his head, muttering, “You continue to amaze me. No, there can be much more.”
He demonstrated with a harder swat, one that burned, stung, and drew a gasp. The next one covered her other cheek, leaving her whole backside pulsing and her rethinking this decision until he caressed the twin sore spots, the softer touch over the sting going straight to her nipples and pussy. “Oh my.”
“I’ll take that as my cue to give you a few more.”
Lily caught the amusement in his tone then ceased thinking with any clarity as he delivered a volley of smacks, alternating between hard and light, building a deep heat that seeped through her skin into muscle and produced a dull throbbing across both buttocks. A hiccup escaped her constricted throat, and her head swam with the myriad of different sensations and the revelation of an erogenous zone she’d never considered before. Responding with frissons of hot flutters traveling from her nipples to her sheath, shocking her with the feverish pitch of arousal, she lay helpless to do anything except go with the flow when Reed slipped a finger inside her and went straight for her clit.
Lily’s tight, slick pussy muscles clamped around Reed’s finger with the first touch of her clit. Her soft cry, arched back, and gyrating hips against his thighs tested his control, his cock a pulsing rock-hard pressure against his zipper. He didn’t want her embarrassed if someone came looking for them, so he hurried her along, circling and teasing the swollen bud until she groaned with the final orgasmic release. Pulling from her contracting clutches was as difficult as postponing his own release for a while longer but necessary with the party still going on. He hadn’t planned this scene, intending to wait until they were alone at his place, but she’d proved too difficult to resist when she kept turning those whiskey eyes full of longing on him.
“Lily, I hate to rush, but...”
“No.” She shook her head, sitting up before he could help her, her hands going to his belt. “Not this time. Your guests can wait or watch. I don’t care.”
