“Roan…”
He pulled me flush against him, my back to his front. I could feel the need pulsing between us, his hardness nestled against my ass.
Roan slid a hand beneath the waistband of my sweatpants and under my panties. I let my head fall back against his shoulder, breathing hard.
His fingers slid down, exploring. Wetness gathered between my thighs. He cupped me. “This heat. Could burn a man alive.”
My core clenched at his words. “Roan…”
“Patience.”
I pressed my thighs together, tightening around his hand, trying to give myself more pressure, more friction. Just…more.
Roan pinched my thigh, making a tsking noise. “Behave.”
I twisted my head and bit his neck.
He chuckled, the sound only driving me higher.
“You’re mean,” I chastised.
Roan’s fingers were back, teasing and toying. “I warned you. But you said you were sure. Changing your mind?”
“Never.”
“That’s my girl,” he whispered in my ear, his teeth nipping the lobe as two fingers drove inside me.
I did whimper then. There was nothing I could do to stop it. Those long digits stroked and twisted, bringing me higher and then backing off. It was a glorious torture, and I only wanted more.
“Please,” I begged.
“Tell me what you need.”
“More,” I breathed.
“Be. Specific.” Roan’s fingers curled.
My mouth fell open on a soft mewl. “That. You. Inside me.”
Roan’s hand was gone in a flash. Then he sank to his knees, taking my sweatpants and panties with him. He tapped my left leg. “Lift.” Then my right. “Lift.”
Then, my slippers and every last stitch of clothing were gone. I lowered my hands, feeling the need to cover myself somehow.
“Don’t,” Roan clipped.
I stilled.
“You’re the most breathtaking thing I’ve ever seen. Don’t hide an inch of that beauty from me.”
My hands fell to my sides, and I breathed deeply.
Roan’s hand traced up my leg to my ass. He gripped it hard. “Perfect.” He nipped the globe. “So damn bitable.”
A shiver coursed through me, one of heat and need.
He shifted, coming around in front of me but still on his knees, his gaze locked on the apex of my thighs. “Knew you’d be beautiful.”
Roan’s thumb parted me, and he leaned forward. His tongue flicked across my clit, and I nearly lost my balance. Roan’s arm came around my legs, holding me steady. “Still.”
I couldn’t get a single word out, but I nodded. Roan grinned against my core. His tongue circled that bundle of nerves as his fingers drove inside me. Each swipe of his tongue nearly sent me over the edge. But it was as if he knew what would take me there and wasn’t ready for that quite yet.
“Please,” I whimpered.
“Need to come?”
“Yes.” I was past shame in begging. I just needed release, escape from the pressure building inside me.
Roan added a third finger, pressing on that spot inside as his lips closed around my clit. He sucked deeply, and pinpricks of light danced across my vision. My thighs shook violently as my walls clamped around him. Nonsensical sounds slipped from my lips.
Roan teased out each wave of pleasure. Just when I thought it was over, another surged until my legs finally gave out.
He scooped me up, depositing me on the bed and grinning down at me. “Like that afterglow on you.”
My entire body tingled, but it was the mischievous smile on Roan’s face that nearly did me in. “Need you.”
Roan stepped back, his fingers going to the buttons on his shirt. “You’ve got me.”
I gulped as he tugged his undershirt free. I knew Roan was a large man but seeing all that muscle in the flesh nearly had me swallowing my tongue.
“Like the view?”
My eyes met his. “Could look at you forever.”
His expression softened as he kicked off his boots, and his fingers went to the button on his pants. “Seems like a waste of time to me.” He stilled for a moment. “I don’t have a condom.”
My mouth went dry. “I’m on the pill to regulate my periods. And I’ve had a checkup.”
“I have, too. And it’s been a long time for me.”
There was something about that. The trust he gave me, the way he let me in. This was more than sex.
“It’s been a long time for me, too,” I whispered.
Roan moved in a flash, jerking free the rest of his clothes and then striding toward me. My breath hitched as his big body covered mine. My legs encircled his waist, his tip bumping against my entrance.
