“Get the fuck out,” she yelled.
“I think you’re beautiful,” I said and pushed the door open and stepped inside. “Beautiful, but supremely fucking irritating.”
She stared at me, her mouth open as if I’d just stolen all her words. Then she turned, threw her purse down, and stomped over to her bed. I glanced around. Her apartment was tiny and full of things everywhere including piles of books stacked on the floor and shoes wherever I looked. The bed was over to one side, where the floor was slightly raised. She kicked off her shoes and started to undo her blouse. I hardened immediately. She was undressing?
“Harper,” I said as I followed her.
“I’m irritating?” she asked.
I didn’t know how to react. I wanted to pin her down and make her listen to me. Kiss her. Fuck her.
“I’m irritating?” She shook her head in disbelief and turned to face me. “I’m fucking irritating?”
How could I make her see what I meant? I grabbed one of her hands, pulled her toward me, and kissed her. She broke free and pushed at my chest, but I snaked my arms around her so she couldn’t escape. Eventually, she stopped trying to move away from me, accepted she was trapped, and stilled. “Kiss me, Harper,” I said. “Do as I say.”
“You’re an asshole,” she said as she punched me in the shoulder.
I brought my hands to her face and her lips to mine. She didn’t resist. I snaked my tongue into her mouth and found hers hot and ready. I groaned against her lips and slid my hand down to her ass, to pull her against me so she could feel my erection. Her fingers slid into my hair and our kisses became frantic, biting and greedy.
She ended our kiss and moved away. “Max?”
I wasn’t sure what came next. Why had she pulled out of my arms? Was she going to ask me to leave? “Yes?” I replied.
“Get your clothes off and fuck me,” she said.
I grinned as she began to undo the rest of the buttons on her shirt, her fingers fumbling over each one.
“Come here,” I said as I knocked her hands out of the way.
“Be careful with that. This blouse is new and I can’t afford to replace it.”
I’d undone the buttons before she’d finished her sentence and slid the silk over her shoulders. Her skin looked so smooth that I bent to kiss the exposed, bronzed flesh, desperate to feel her under my lips. She tipped her head back and I grinned against her skin.
“Asshole, huh?” I pulled off my running top and stepped out of my shorts.
“Do you want me to change my mind?” She cocked her hip, the bra straps falling from her shoulders.
“You’re not going to change your mind,” I said, leaning toward her, pushing her skirt up around her waist, and thrusting my hand into her underwear.
“Don’t,” she said, her voice breathy. “I can’t ruin this skirt. I just bought it.” My fingers pressed into her folds and though she wasn’t fighting me off, I could tell she was concerned about her clothes. Why?
“Lie down,” I said, guiding her to the bed, where I quickly slid off her skirt and panties.
“Max . . .”
I wanted to sink into the way she called my name.
“Yes?” I kissed up the inside of her thigh, along her soft, tight skin, reaching her pussy. I gave her one long lick over her slit but continued to work my way up over her belly and between her breasts. The pace was slower than last week. Her anger had ebbed away and just existed in the way every now and then she scored her fingernails up my arms or whispered, “You’re an asshole,” as I continued to kiss and lick and suck her entire body.
She reached above her head, pointing at her nightstand. “Condom,” she said. She might think I was an asshole, but she didn’t mind my dick. I grabbed a condom and as quickly as I could, rolled it on. As I lay on my back, Harper rose off the bed and began to straddle me.
“I don’t think so,” I said, pushing her to her back. “I’m fucking you. You’re not fucking me.” I nudged her knees wide with my legs and pushed into her. Her eyebrows pulled together as she concentrated on not making the sound of pleasure I could tell was rippling below the surface. I pulled out and thrust in, wanting to set that moan free.
“If you’re going to fuck me, you’d better make it good,” she said.
Highly. Fucking. Irritating.
She knew this was so fucking good. I grabbed her leg and lifted it, going deeper, showing how good it was.
She bit down on her lip, still swallowing her reactions.
“Really? You’re not going to tell me how good this is?” I asked, panting, pushing into her, feeling her pulse beneath me. “You’re not going to say how this is the best you’ve ever had?” I slammed into her, pushing her up the bed, my jaw tightening.
