While he'd mentally recited the broad range of his penalty minutes over the years, she kissed her way back up his chest.
Being with Lucy made him feel brand-­new. Like everything they did was the first time for him. Luckily he was smart enough to realize that the way he felt had a hell of a lot more to do with his heart than with his nerve endings.
Even if those were about to explode.
"Will you touch me now?" Her lips glistened and her eyes were dark and seductive.
"Baby, anything you want. It's yours."
"Then I want you."
He cupped her face between his hands and kissed her. Then he slid his hands down to caress her breasts. To slip his fingers between her legs and touch her the way he now knew she liked to be touched. When he did so, her head dropped back on a long, lusty moan, exposing her pretty neck for him to kiss. The more he touched her, the more she pressed against his hand.
He could tell she was on the verge when he whispered in her ear, "I'm going to lick you so you'll come."
"No." She grabbed his shoulders as he began his descent. "I want you inside me."
Now she really had his attention. "Are you sure?"
She gave a quick nod. "Don't make me wait. I really need you. I want this. I want you."
Relief and lust collided as he yanked open the nightstand drawer and pulled out a condom.
"Let me put it on." Her voice was eager as she reached for him. "Show me how."
His hands were shaking with anticipation as he tore open the package and showed her how to roll it down over his erection. Having her watch so intently was a double turn-­on. But even as much as he wanted to just push inside her and get moving, he wanted to savor every stroke. Every second. Every sigh. Every moan.
She lay back and opened her arms for him. For the first time in his life he felt like those open arms were more than just an invitation to fuck. They felt like an invitation into her heart.
He leaned in and kissed her thoroughly, then he gazed into her eyes while his fingers slipped into the slick folds between her legs. His careful attention arched her back and made her moan.
"Take me now, Jordan."
To know she wanted him after everything she'd been through made his heart race. He rocked his erection against her slick opening and kissed her thoroughly while he slid slow and deep into her incredible heat.
Not a doubt entered his mind. Being with Lucy was exactly where he wanted and needed to be.
Thinking stopped and pleasure took over as Jordan slid deep into her body. Lucy had worried that she might not be able to do this. Worried that her past had left too many mental and emotional scars. His warm, clean, manly scent washed over her as she closed her eyes and just enjoyed the amazing sensation of having him inside. Whatever she'd fantasized about Jordan Kincade didn't come close to the real thing.
While he made love to her she filled her hands with the solid muscles of his shoulders, back, and buttocks. She felt his muscles release and contract as he surged deep inside her. She'd never experienced anything like this before, and the overwhelming emotion of it made her want to cry.
Like he could read her mind, he captured her lips in a kiss that stole her breath.
"You feel so damn good," he whispered hotly against her ear as he lifted her leg over his hip and pushed in deeper. "I'll never get enough of you."
The shift in position brought a new sensation that delivered an onslaught of hot tingles where their bodies were joined. It was the most incredible thing she'd ever felt. Her friend Claudia often complained that she'd never had an orgasm during actual intercourse. Lucky for Lucy, Jordan had all the right moves.
The more she moaned, the more he whispered dirty words in her ear. The more he whispered, the faster the pace of their lovemaking. What had started out slow and sensuous had built into a fiery passion that had them both panting. Sweating. And then the heat detonated. She shattered, clutching his back, and screaming his name. His entire body tensed and he pushed into her a final time with a shudder and a long groan.
Hearts pounding together, he kissed her tenderly. He did not pull out and roll off. He did not leave her feeling as though she'd been used. When he rolled, it was to his side, and he took her with him.
And she felt loved.
He wrapped her in his arms, kissed her neck, and chuckled. "Told you I'd make you scream."
She smiled because she never knew sex could be so fulfilling and so much fun.
"Okay, but next time it's my turn to make you scream," she said. "If there is a next time."
