The Taming of Xander Sterne(62)

                She unfastened and pushed off her own trousers and panties before running her hands along the length of his long and muscled legs, from ankle to thigh, pausing to caress the slightly reddened scar on his left thigh, before her hands moved higher still, lightly caressing the length of his arousal through the thin material of his briefs.

                ‘Take them off, Samantha!’ Xander groaned as he moved restlessly against her, hands clenched into fists at his sides. ‘I want to feel your hands against me.’

                He was just so gorgeous, Sam groaned inwardly as she slowly lowered the boxers, hardly aware of discarding them as her heated gaze remained fixed on the long and throbbing length of his arousal.

                ‘Touch me, Samantha,’ Xander encouraged gruffly. ‘Yes, just like that!’ He groaned achingly, his eyes closing as she curled the fingers of her hand about him and lowered her head to take him into the heat of her mouth.

                Xander felt his control slipping within minutes as he watched Samantha’s head slowly bob up and down, the fullness of her lips wide about him, her wicked tongue rasping the length of him, the tingling at the base of his spine telling him he was very close to release.

                His hands were gentle on her shoulders as he pulled her up and away from him, knowing he had to stop the torment before he did just that. ‘Not like that, Samantha,’ he groaned as he saw the disappointment of her expression. ‘I want to be inside you,’ he explained as he reached over and opened the top drawer of the bedside cabinet before taking out a condom.

                ‘Let me,’ Samantha offered huskily as she took the packet from him, tearing off the top before taking it out.

                Xander felt that renewed tingling at the base of his spine as Samantha’s caressing fingers slowly rolled it over and then down the length of him, fearing that he wasn’t going to last long once he was buried to the hilt inside her heat. Not sure he was even going to last that long if he didn’t get inside her right now.

                ‘On top of me,’ he grated. ‘I need to be inside you now,’ he encouraged gruffly, his hands on her hips as he entered her, trying to take it slowly.

                Knowing he had lost the battle the moment he was fully buried inside Samantha. ‘I can’t! Forgive me, Samantha, but I just can’t take this slowly. Next time. I promise next time,’ he groaned achingly as he held onto her hips as he began to thrust into her.

                Sam tightly gripped his shoulders as she rode the fierceness of his lengthy thrusts, her body flooding with desire as she revelled in the intensity of need she could see in Xander’s almost pained expression, his fingers digging into her hips as he pushed hard and deep.

                Her eyes widened in shock as she felt a second climax building rapidly inside her. ‘Xander!’ she had time to cry before that climax crested, and then broke with an intensity of pleasure even stronger than the first.

                As if that was all he had been waiting for, Xander cried out at his own release thrusting hard and deep as he pulsed hotly inside her.

                What a fool she had been, Sam acknowledged regretfully the following morning as she looked down at the beautiful man sleeping in the bed beside her, knowing there could be no next time for the two of them.

                Because no matter what she might have told herself last night when the two of them made love, the reassurance she had given herself to believe she could have casual sex with a man, with Xander, before just as happily walking away, was all nonsense. A lie she had told herself because she had wanted, desired, Xander so very much.

                Now she realised not only had she lied to herself about the casual sex, but also about her feelings for Xander.
