“You are stunning,” he gasped. “I have to take you now while you look like this.”
There was no more warning than that. Suddenly he was gripping her backside, and he thrust inside her, his hips slapping against hers.
Sensation after sensation washed through her. If she’d been coming hard and fast before, this was on a new level. Her core gripped him tightly. Yes, she also felt a slight sting of pain as her virgin body tried to adjust to his length and his girth. But the pleasure was so much greater than the pain, and she gave in to the utter ecstasy of it all.
“Damn, Savvy, you’re so tight,” he groaned as he pulled back and thrust into her again.
This drew another cry of pleasure from her. And as he began moving, faster and faster, her orgasm never quite ended. Just as she was beginning to feel as if she were touching down on earth again, the heat rebuilt.
Her eyes widened as she looked up at Ashton’s ravishingly handsome face. And then she shuddered around him again. Though it hardly seemed possible, the pleasure was even more intense than it had been before. Crying out again, she held him close, her nails digging into his back. His voice joined hers as he buried himself deep inside her and they both shook in completion. They were now one in the most intimate way possible.
They were spent, and it took a long, long time before either of them could even think of moving. Or could even think, period. But he ultimately slid off her, and she whimpered her discontent until he pulled her against his side.
“I can’t even describe how amazing that was, Savvy,” he told her as he traced his fingers along her gleaming back.
“Ditto,” she murmured.
Why in the world had she waited so long to experience something that amazing? She was in deep danger now of becoming a hard-core sex addict. She already wanted to do it again — heck, she was thinking of a twelve-step program, but not one of withdrawal.
But he had worn her out with his efforts. Her eyes drifted closed and exhaustion pulled her under. Maybe it would be better to get some rest first. Sex took a lot of energy, and she wanted to be fully alert for round two. And round twelve.
Chapter Twenty-Two
Ashton stretched out his arm and reached for Savannah, but encountered nothing but empty sheets beside him. Just as he was wrenching his eyes open, he heard the distinct sound of the door to his suite clicking shut.
Though Savvy had tried to do it quietly, some actions just resonated. Yet it didn’t dampen his mood. It wasn’t as if she could get away from him. They were halfway to Skagway, but for now, they were in the middle of the sea. Unless she wanted to swim like an Olympic champion or even better, she was pretty much stuck here in his territory.
And on the morning after the incredible night before, he had no intention of letting her get too far away from him. He’d heard the expression “best sex I’ve ever had.” But this was better, probably the best sex that anyone had ever had. Okay, he couldn’t know that. But it was definitely his best sex in all his years. And Ashton was a bit ashamed to admit, even to himself, that he’d had a lot of sex over the years.
Throwing back the covers, he leaped from the bed and headed to the bathroom. And he soon found himself singing in his nice hot shower. Damn, he felt good. But as he stood beneath the spray, he got a visual of Savvy writhing beneath him, and instantly he was hard again — painfully hard.
“Down, boy,” he murmured as he switched the faucet to cold and stood shivering beneath the spray.
It took a while, but finally his body began to behave. Sure, he could have taken himself in hand, so to speak, and relieved those uncomfortable tensions, but why in the world would he want to do that? Savvy was so damn close to him on this ship, and he’d much rather do it all with her.#p#分页标题#e#
After jumping from the shower, he wrapped a towel around his waist and went back to his bedroom. As he walked to his closet, he turned toward his bed and then stopped. He’d almost missed it in his haste to find Savvy. But now that he’d spotted the evidence, there was no going back. Shock was what he was feeling.
But was this possible? Could he really be seeing what he thought he was seeing? As he stepped up to the bed and looked down, there was no mistaking it. How in the world could he not have noticed? Was he that much of a cad, an insensitive slime?
Blood stained the pure white sheets where he’d apparently taken Savvy’s virginity last night. It was beyond belief. But as he sank down onto the edge of the bed and buried his head in his hands, he went over their lovemaking step by step. She’d been so tight, almost painfully so, but he’d been so turned on, and she hadn’t complained. He’d figured it had just been a while since she’d shared anyone’s bed.
