The taste of his salty skin lingered and she wanted more. With Steve she always wanted more. She pushed
his jeans over his hips then pulled away to watch him shrug them off. She could not wait to dip her head
down and wrap her lips around the tip of his penis.
When she did, Steve muttered something unintelligible. She went to work making love to him, sucking
and kissing and licking in ways she knew would drive him to distraction. His musky scent filled her nose
and his masculine taste exploded on her tongue. His cock swelled and thickened as she caressed. The skin
of his toned butt filled one hand, while round, soft testicles nestled in the other.
For someone who knew the smallest morsel of Steve would only serve to fan the flames of her addiction,
she was being given a sensory overload—and she only wanted more.
“I thought,” Steve rasped, “you were not going to kiss me.”
“I wasn’t.” Her answer was muffled.
“Well.” Steve shuddered and pulled away from her. “I’m glad we’ve got that sorted out.”
He drew her up until they stood face to face. “You said I couldn’t tie you up either.”
“You can’t, and it’s not negotiable.”
Steve blinked. Once. “But kissing is?”
“Kissing is.”
He took her mouth with his. Negotiations on this topic weren’t necessary. While his lips beguiled, his
hands undressed. Her jeans landed in a pile on top of his.
“You are wearing panties,” he acknowledged as he slipped a finger beneath the silky material.
“I won’t be if you take them off.” His finger felt shockingly cool in the heat of her slick folds. She
shivered as he ran it over her lips once before dipping it inside. Deep, deep inside. The pleasure was so
sharp her inner walls clamped around him.
He dropped to his knees and pushed her until she sat on the edge of the bed. Still he did not remove her
panties. Instead he withdrew his finger and lowered his head to her lap. Through the silk and lace he
kissed her, running his tongue slowly over her throbbing clit. He kissed her until she was a shivering
wreck on the bed. Until she was panting and sobbing.
“Fire it up, Steve,” she begged, and finally, finally her panties were discarded.
He moved away for a second, grabbed his wallet and put it down again, and then he was back, fired up
and ready to go.
Pen scooted up the bed, making space for him between her legs, and Steve settled there, right where he
belonged, with the tip of his erection torturously close to her aching center. Her body trembled with
longing, her hunger so insatiable she had to swallow down a cry.
“You told me you weren’t going to kiss me,” Steve said again as he lowered his face to hers and kissed
her chastely.
“We’ve been through this already,” she answered and deepened the kiss. As her tongue invaded his
mouth, he nudged his erection stingily between her lower lips. In response, she wrapped her legs around
his waist, inviting him in further.
Sweet heaven, if he didn’t take her now, she would not be held accountable for her actions.
“Steve,” she moaned. “Please.”
“Please what?” Beads of sweat formed on his brow.
“Please.” She ground her hips against him, trying to increase the depth of penetration. “Make love to me.”
He squeezed his eyes shut, as though in pain, and then opened them again. “You told me you weren’t
going to marry me either.”
Oh, please. Not that again. Not now. “I’m not.” Again she ground her hips into his. The ache between her
legs grew worse, the longing brutal. “I’m going to use you for sex.”
