I loved his weight. I loved how he smelled. I loved how tender he was being, this giant of a human who could crush me in one fist but was stroking my face with the care of someone handling fine china. I loved how he made me feel so safe.
I did not love the strange terror that evoked.
When I finally managed to pull myself together, I sniffled in embarrassment and turned my face to the pillow. “Sorry. I’m not normally a weeper after sex. But that was . . .” I shivered and tightened my arms around his neck.
He whispered into my ear, “Don’t apologize. I feel like a sex god right now.”
I cracked open an eye. He was staring down at me, a big, goofy grin on his face. His dark hair was mussed, his blue eyes were alight, and he was so handsome it took my breath away.
Dazed, I said, “You are a sex god, Jax. You’re the Michael Jordan of sex. You’re the Warren Buffett of sex. You’re the Steve Jobs of—”
“Okay,” he interrupted drily. “No more other men’s names out of your mouth while you’re in my bed.”
I smiled at him. “I’m sorry. That was just like . . .” I sighed dreamily. “Wow.”
The light in his eyes grew hotter. He whispered, “And that was only act one.”
Fingers crossed there were a dozen more to follow.
Jackson rose to his knees. Staring down at me, he slowly unbuttoned his shirt. It parted under his fingers, revealing his gorgeous hard chest, those abs of steel, that fine dark happy trail I found so enticing. He shrugged the shirt off his shoulders, and I sighed again, wiggling my toes in happiness.
“Goddamn, woman,” he said, his voice husky. “You’re gonna turn me into an egomaniac. You should see those eyes. Filthy.”
I giggled. “You’re very pretty, Jackson. This, especially, is my favorite.” I propped myself up on one elbow and trailed my finger down the soft line of hair on his stomach. His abs quivered under my touch. I glanced up to find him gazing down at me in molten stillness, watching me with predatory eyes.
I had an idea.
I sat up, flattened my hands over his abdomen, and smiled up at him. I pressed a soft kiss to the square inch of warm skin right below his belly button.
He froze. “What’re you doing?”
“Wouldn’t you like to know?” I teased. Maintaining eye contact, I traced a circle around his belly button with my tongue, then dipped it in.
His sucked in breath made me grin. I was getting an inkling of how my unraveling made him feel, and I wanted more of it.
I wanted him undone.
My fingers found the fly of his jeans. The buttons slid open with the silkiness of melted butter. I pressed a kiss to the small strip of newly exposed skin above his briefs, and Jackson stopped breathing.
When I licked it, he softly moaned.
“Your little tongue,” he whispered, staring at me in fascination. “Your little pink—”
His words were swallowed by another moan when I curled my hand around the enormous bulge straining the front of his briefs and gently squeezed.
Straight-faced, I said, “There seems to be something requiring attention in your underwear, Mr. Boudreaux. Judging by the size of engorgement, it could be a medical emergency. Shall I have a look?”
He looked like he was going to pass out. He said faintly, “Yes, nurse. Please do.”
It took a geologic epoch for me to pull down his briefs because I was enjoying his expression too much to go any faster. When I finally tore my gaze away from his and looked down, I gasped.
“Holy guacamole,” I breathed, floored by the sheer size and grandeur of Jackson’s jutting erection. “Mr. Boudreaux. This is life-threatening.”
In a strangled voice, he said, “Perhaps . . . you should administer . . . oral treatment?”
I nodded. “I concur. Excellent diagnosis.”
Then I applied my mouth and thrilled to the sound of Jackson’s hoarse gasp.
He was too big to fit more than a few inches into my mouth, but I made up for it with both my hands, which I wrapped around his shaft and stroked in tandem with my tongue. His shaking hands cupped my head. His breathing was labored. After I’d established a rhythm, Jackson matched it with gentle thrusts of his pelvis, each one working a soft groan from his chest.
He was ridiculously large, but I loved the way he tasted and smelled. All that masculine warmth and musk. Delicious. I opened my throat, testing my endurance, and was rewarded with Jackson barking, “Fuck!” His fingers twitched against my scalp.
So of course I had to do it again. And again.
And again.
He sucked in a breath like a hiss between his teeth. He warned, “Bianca.”
I looked up at him. His eyes were barely open. His face was flushed. His chest was heaving. I felt like a superhero.
