I'm so busy thrashing and trembling under him that I almost miss his orgasm, the last few wild bucks of his hips as he comes with a deep guttural male sound that I don't think I'll forget for the rest of my life, no matter how many lovers I have.
When he collapses on top of me with a chuckle, I find that I'm still gasping and panting for breath. My chest is rising and falling with rapid inhales and frantic exhales.
“Mmm,” Zayden says as he rolls off and removes the condom. I try not to look at him. The sight of all that naked, tattooed flesh just makes me feel hot and ready again. Dear God. “Gimme ten and we'll go for round two.”
“Round two?” I echo as I roll away from him and curl my knees up. “How many times do you think we're going to do this?”
“As many as we can,” he says, his voice strangely grave. I glance over my shoulder and find him ruffling up his dark brown hair. “We've got six days left, so … like at least thirty times, don't you think?”
I laugh as I turn fully towards him and he smiles over his shoulder at me.
“I can't leave you without a full roster of experiences to draw from, you know? Like, you totally haven't sucked my cock yet, and I haven't gone down on you, and then there's anal to worry about …”
“Whoa, whoa, whoa.” I hold up a hand as Zayden grins and gives me one of his signature winks. “Anal? You're getting way ahead of yourself there, Nanny Roth.”
“Nanny Roth?” he asks as he gets up and disposes of the condom in the bathroom trash. When Zay comes back, he lays behind me and pulls my body into a tight spoon. Oh. That feels nice. Really nice. Too nice, maybe. The urge to snuggle back into him is strong, but we don't have that kind of relationship, do we? “I like that. Call me nanny while I'm fucking you, okay?”
“Absolutely not.” Zayden grins against my ear and leans his warm, sweaty body into mine, kissing my cheek with his stubbled face. I wrinkle my nose against the brush of his hair against my skin, but I actually do kind of like it. “So, you really do have a crush on me, huh? Even when I'm so bad at sex?”
“I didn't say bad. I said amateurish. Totally different thing. But you know what? Tonight you really took it like a champ. I have to say, excellent hip movements. Good doggy style form. Total pro moves.”
“Yeah, sure,” I say as he sighs against my skin and goose bumps break out all over. “Nice lines. Do those work on every girl?”
“What do you think?” he whispers against me, reaching down to lift my chin up, tucking my head under his. “Is it working on you?”
I smile and open my mouth to answer him when the doorknob jiggles and I hear Bella's voice outside the hollow core door.
“Aunt Brooke, I heard somebody screaming, and I'm really scared. I can't sleep.”
I look back at Zayden and he gives me a sad half-smile, standing up and grabbing a pair of black sweats from the floor. I watch his tight ass as he drags them over his hips and tosses me a baggy t-shirt and my kitty cat pajama pants.
I kick my legs over the edge of the bed and tug them on quickly, waiting on the edge of the mattress as he opens the door and Bella throws her arms around his waist.
“Did you hear that?” she whispers ominously. “It was a banshee. I learned about them from YouTube. They come in the night and scream when you're going to die. Am I going to die, Uncle Zayden?”
I smile when she calls him uncle, this stupid sloppy smile that I wipe quickly off my face lest Zay sees it. Ugh. I don't want him to think I'm going to go all crazy virgin on him and start professing my undying love. Even if he is adorable with my niece. And good in bed. And silly and funny and sexy and brimming with personality.
Um.
I stand up quickly and brush my hands down the front of the shirt. It's one of Zay's and it says Too Kewl For School. Heh.
“It wasn't a banshee,” Zayden says with all due seriousness. “Aunt Brooke just stubbed her toe.” He lifts up his fingers and gives her a salute. “Scout's honor, Bella, I swear it. I actually activated an anti-banshee spell around the perimeter of the house. We're all safe here.”
I smile another dumb lumpy smile as Zay glances over his shoulder. He totally sees that one and I feel the blood drain from my face. Great.
He turns back to Bella and reaches down to ruffle her dark hair.
“Even if it was Brooke, I can't sleep now. I'm too awake.” Zayden nods for a moment and then snaps his fingers.
“I got it. You want to go downstairs and bake some midnight cookies? Midnight cookies actually taste better than regular boring old day cookies. You game?”
Bella's face lights up and she claps her hands together, nodding her head vigorously and giving Zayden this adorable grin with her teeth showing and her eyes squinched shut.
