She didn't have a concept of time in the pool, but suddenly Artaxias was there, tossing floatation items into her path. "About time, geez," he muttered. "Your hour is up. Out of the pool, you little fish." Crouching on the edge, he held out his hands to her and waited.
She put her hands into his and laughed. "I told you that I likely would lose time," she said when he pulled her up and out of the pool. Wrapping her arms around him, she laughed. "You are all sweaty and I'm all wet." Her look that she shot him was one born of greed and need. "In all ways."
"Oh really." His smile was interested, very interested. His hands slid down her back to her ass and squeezed. "Are you hot and wet?" he asked, his voice down a full octave as he licked his lips slowly in that way that made her want to groan with lust.
"Very." She purred the singular word. Looking up to him, she licked her lips. "How about we go to the sauna or the hot tub so that you can help me with this ache and pain that I am in from being so wet and hot?"
"Hot tub, I think, and then we can go and lay in the sauna for a little while." Pulling her up against him, he lifted her so she could wrap her legs around his waist. "If that works for you, of course," he said with a grin.
"You know damn good and well that works for me. I happen to really, really love it when I'm able to have you inside of me in the hot tub." Her legs were locked around his waist, and her hands splayed over his shoulders. Leaning in, she brushed her nose to his and sighed. "I love being in your arms. I didn't think that I would. Weird, right?"
"Why would that be weird?" he asked. Stopping at the hot tub, he tugged at her legs and set her into the water. "Well?" he said as he stripped out of his sweaty clothing and climbed in with her. Settling onto the bench seat, he looked up at her and cocked a brow. He'd asked a question, or so she thought he had.
"It's not. Well, not really. What I feel for you isn't weird. What I need from you isn't weird. It just is strange, because I never dreamed that I would come to this place and meet not just one man of my dreams, but two. It's kinda surreal to me that I could fall so hard and so fast and know just how right it is."
"We're nothing if not shocking." He smiled. Taking her hand, he pulled her toward him and then helped her settle, straddling his lap. Tipping his chin up, he stared into her eyes and brushed a finger over her cheek. "Would you really have had it any other way, Lilly? Would you prefer it if you'd never met us?" he asked quietly. His gaze was curious, and yet she was quite sure she spotted a little vulnerability in his eyes.
"Oh god, no. I am so very happy to have met you," she said and moved closer to him. Wrapping her arms around him, she hugged him tightly. "I don't think that I would know what to do without the two of you. The two of you make me happy. The two of you make life worth living."
"Then that is all that matters," he said, hugging her back. Tension eased from his body, a tension she hadn't even noticed before it slipped from his form.
Chapter Fourteen
Something was tickling her nose and wouldn't stop. Brushing at it didn't help, rubbing didn't help, and even smacking around her pillow didn't help. Whatever it was, was very persistent. When she peeled an eye open, she saw Gavriel practically nose – to-nose with her and smiling. "About time you woke up. Artaxias said you barely grunted when he got up and waved him off when he kissed you good-bye, but I thought he was pulling my leg. Apparently not."
Lifting an arm, she wrapped it around Gav's neck and pulled him closer with a grin. "Well, what can I say? I went to bed late and was worn out." She grinned teasingly. "How about you let me get up, get showered and teeth brushed, and then I will let you continue teasing me?" she asked hopefully. Her hand moved to his cheek. "How are you doing? You okay?"
Nodding, he leaned closer so his forehead was resting against hers. His eyes slid shut and Gav released a soft sigh of air. "Better now that I'm here with you," he said quietly. He moved in closer and wrapped her in his arms, one hand rubbing over her back. "Go and shower," he told her, his eyes popping open again. "I'm going to get out of all this gear and wait for you here. If I'm asleep, poke me back awake, please. I have plans for you."
That had her grinning and she licked her lips. "I'm glad that you will be there waiting for me." She put her cheek to his and rubbed it to his. "I will see you soon, babe," she whispered against his ear. "I'm going to get clean and then I'm going to come and attack you, baby."
He chuckled deeply, a grin curling his lips up. "Promises, promises," he murmured. Pressing a kiss to her cheek, he hugged her close before opening his arms. "Go and clean up, darling. I will be here waiting for your return."
She did just that. After a time, she finally returned, crawling into bed with him and wrapping her arm around his chest. "I love you," she told him quietly and rubbed her cheek on his chest. Looking up at him, she grinned, "Now then, I'm all nice and clean, shaven, and horny. What'cha gonna do about it?"
He lifted a brow as he looked at her from under his lashes. "Well, I don't really know. Would you happen to have any suggestions?" He smiled ever so slightly, the look in total giving him a very naughty appearance.
"Oh I have a few suggestions," she said with a grin. "You see, I was thinking." She let her lips trail down his chest and hovered just over his throbbing hard cock and smiled. "I was thinking that perhaps I should first lick you." Her tongue darted out, and she very, very lightly allowed it to rub over the top of his cock. "And then I think that, after that, you should fuck me. Thoughts?"
He let out a groan and nodded, one hand thrusting into her hair. "Excellent plan," he said, his voice a little choked sounding. "I fully approve of your plan, go for it," he told her. With a little push to her head, he lifted his hips to bump his cock to her lips.
She could only grin. He knew how much she got off on him fisting his hands in her hair and making her take all of him into her mouth. She moved slightly and shivered as she began to truly move on his cock. She licked and sucked him greedily. She needed more. She had to have more. Moaning as she took him deeper and deeper, she shuddered. Pulling off of him, she licked her lips and said, "I need, Gav. I need you."
Apparently, that was all he needed her to say. She found herself being yanked up, and then his weight was pressing her into the bed. His face was pressed to her neck, his mouth on her skin, and one hand was cupping her pussy. With his legs, he spread her wide open, his fingers delving in to stroke her and push ever deeper into her, stroking her higher and higher.
Lilly loved this part, how wild Gavriel could get at times. She loved the look that he would get in his eyes, the way that he would move with her and send her body ready to run and melt. "Gav. Fuck me." It was all that she could say as she lay under him, panting in desperation.
He gave a low growl, his thumb rubbing over her clit, and he sucked at her nipple. Pulling the bud into his mouth, he flicked it with his tongue, rolling it around, and drew harder. Just when she was ready to scream, he drew his fingers away and moved between her legs to thrust into her deep.
She was going to kill him. It was her brief thought before he finally filled her body. Then Lilly stopped thinking and simply began to feel. She moved with him, her body with his, and shuddered over and again. A low moan came from the back of her throat and she shuddered. "Yes," she moaned low and loudly.
Hooking his arms under her legs, Gav practically folded her in half as he levered up and over her, driving his cock into her deeper. Faster and harder, he drove in deep and hit her just where she needed him to. His mouth moved to her other breast and latched onto the nipple, sucking hard.
Lilly's hands went to his head and she held him there to her breast. She shivered and moved with him. "Gav." She moaned his name, her toes curling and whole body trembling. "Oh gods, yes, right there." She whimpered in desperation.
Another low growl sounded and his mouth was on hers again. "So, fucking, good," he groaned out, flexing his hips to drive into her deeper. "So, fucking, tight," he moaned and thrust his tongue into her mouth, the movements matching his cock into her pussy.
