Tessa's Temptation(19)
"It's different when you come from money. I have no right to expect expensive things. Living here is more than I could have ever imagined. I'm overwhelmed on a daily basis."
"I'm sorry." His voice was rough and full of regret. "I'll try to be more considerate."
"Don't be sorry." She didn't want him to think she wasn't happy. "I love living here but I've never even seen a house this big much less lived in one. You have three cars. Where I come from, some people don't even have one. Your mom lives in Paris. Who lives in Paris?"
"I told you she was high maintenance." He laughed. "But her husband is from France, so they travel back and forth. They're scheduled to come back here after the holidays. They try to alternate years and spend time with his kids too."
"I'll get to meet her?" She wondered what his mother would think about him dating her.
"Of course." He continued to run his fingers up and down her spine. "She's a trip. She'll adore you."
"I can't believe she grew up with my dad. They seem like two different worlds." She paused and then added, "Kind of like us."
"I don't see us as two different worlds." He kissed the back of her shoulder. "Different circumstances and experiences, but not that far off."
"I'm not high society. I've never even been out of Massachusetts. You've been all over the world. You've seen so much, experienced so many things. I can't keep up."
"Now you will too. I'll take you anywhere you want to go. You don't have to keep up. Let me lead."
"I kind of like just being here in your bed." She reached up and touched his face. "I like the way you make me feel."
"Do you?" He slid one leg over her and sat up straddling her hips with his solid thighs. The tip of his cock pressed against her backside and she squirmed beneath him. "Stay still." He slid his hand down her back, over her ass and between her legs. Every move calculated and deliberate.
"Chase..." She arched her back when he plunged his fingers inside her.
"You like that?" He turned his hand over and circled her clit before pushing deeper inside her. "Show me."
She raised her hips back as he moved his hand forward. In perfect rhythm, he brought her to the brink. The craving inside her intensified, moving lower until she thought she might explode with need. A cool sheen of sweat covered her back and hips as she continued to move in time with him.
"How many times do you think I can make you come tonight?"
Her nipples hardened, rubbing against the sheet, adding to her arousal.
"You're so wet." He trailed his other hand along her backside, dipping his finger in her crack. No one had ever touched her there before. She wondered if he would want to explore her like that. Would she let him?
"You're close," he whispered. "I can feel you tightening. The question is how do you want to finish this?"
He pulled her upright, her back to his chest, never removing his fingers from inside her as he kissed the side of her neck. She moaned his name at the new angle of his hand. He teased her nipples with his free hand, both together creating even more raw sensation and need throughout her.
"Do you want to come on my fingers?" He increased the speed of his movements inside her. "Or do you want this?" He withdrew his hand and replaced it with the tip of his cock, rubbing the head at her wet entrance. He had his answer when she pushed her body back into him. "I know what you want." He moved her further up, closer to the headboard and pushed her gently down so her backside was raised.
"Baby," she screamed out when he pushed inside her, jolting her forward. She flattened her hands against the dark, cherry wood of the headboard and let him set the pace. It wasn't as gentle as their first encounter, but she didn't mind. He wasted no time diving deep and creating a fast rhythm inside her. It didn't take long for her to get caught up in his needs. She became more aroused with each thrust.
"You're so tight." He tangled his fingers in her hair and tugged her head back, giving him access to her jaw. "You're mine now. No one else touches you. Not now. Not ever."
"I'm yours," she breathed. "You didn't have to tell me. I already knew."
"Good." He pulled his shaft out and slowly reentered her. "I'd go crazy if anyone ever touched you."
"No one ever will." Her muscles clenched around his cock as he plunged back into her. "Harder, please... I'm so close."
He let go of her hair and gripped her hips, digging his fingers into her flesh. He slammed into her, each thrust harder and faster until she shuddered under his hold. He continued pounding his flesh into hers, holding her steady and then finally collapsed onto her back as he released again inside her. Filling her completely, he continued moving long after he had finished.
"Do you have any idea what you're doing to me?" He kissed her hair as he stroked the length of her arm. "I don't know how I'm ever going to get enough of you."
"You won't." She smiled as she turned her head toward him, seeking out his lips. "You'll have to take me night after night."
"Don't worry." He kissed her. "That won't be a problem."
"I'm exhausted."
"Me too, but let's have a hot shower together before we sleep." He got off the bed. "You'll be completely relaxed."
"I don't think I could be any more relaxed." She stretched lazily, savoring how fulfilled her whole body felt. "But a shower does sound good."
"Come on." He pulled her with him. "I'll wash your back."
"We started today with a shower." She stood reluctantly and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Remember?"
"Sweetheart, I'll never forget that particular shower." His coarse stubble tickled along her jaw. "It was the best one I've ever had."
"Hmm..." She closed her eyes when he kissed her, melting into his embrace. "Maybe we could top it tonight?"
"I think so."
Her heart pounded inside her chest as he led her to the bathroom. She understood what he meant when he said he didn't know how he would ever get enough of her. They'd been together two times in less than an hour, but her desire for him hadn't even wavered. It only intensified, growing bigger and even more feral. Could there ever be enough when it came to the two of them?
She wanted to find out.

Monday morning came faster than Chase would have liked. As he adjusted his tie and put on his watch, he caught glimpses of his redheaded beauty in the mirror. Her wild hair lay against his pillow and her face was still peaceful from sleep. They'd spent most of Sunday in bed, leaving it only to eat and shower. He'd showered more in the past two days than he normally did, but he wanted Tessa all the time.
"Stop pouting, sweetheart." He turned to face her. "I made these plans weeks ago." He caressed her cheek. He hated having to leave her but he was scheduled on a flight to Rhode Island in a couple of hours to meet with a client and survey some land. "When I was still trying to fight your advances."
"I don't want you to go."
"It's only one night." He leaned down and kissed her. With her school schedule, she couldn't just fly off on a day's notice. "Would you like me to ask May to stay here with you?"
"I'll be fine, but can I sleep in your bed?"
"It's our bed now." He kissed her again, hoping she knew he meant that. "Do you have any friends from school you want to invite over? Anyone from your old neighborhood?" She had told him her two best friends had both gone away to college and she didn't get to see them often. He wanted her to know this was her home and she could invite people over if she wanted.
"I made a few friends at school over the past semester. I'll probably just find someone to hang out with and grab something to eat with them tonight."
"Make sure you text me when you get in and don't forget to turn on the security system before you go to bed."
"Are you worried about me?"
"I just want to know you're home." He sat on the edge of the bed with her. "I don't want to leave you, but I have to go. It's part of my work, honey. I'll be back tomorrow afternoon."
"I have an early class and then I'll go visit my dad. I should be here when you get in."
"I look forward to it." He kissed her before getting up and glancing out the window. "My ride is here. I'll text you when I land."
