“Put it up to your lips as slowly as you possibly can.”

She brings the peach up to her lips, barely grazing it.

“Take a bite of it,” I say.

“Like a normal bite or…?”

I exhale. “Pretend it’s my ass.”

She seductively raises her eyebrows, smirking at me. “It would be my pleasure.”

She swirls her tongue on the skin, taking a small bite of the flesh.

I’m watching every move she makes and her eyes are on me the entire time. My chest is heaving intensely as I lick my top lip.

Savoring and swallowing the flesh she consumed, she stares at me. “How was that?”

“Perfect,” I say. “Take a bigger bite out of it now. As much as you can fit into that pretty little mouth of yours.”

“My pretty little mouth? I’ll have you know my mouth isn’t little. You should know that, shouldn’t you?” Her tone is loaded with sarcasm.

“Will you stop being a brat and do what I told you to do? If you’re not going to listen to me, I’m going to have to punish you.”

“You’re going to have to punish me? I’d pay to see that.”

“Dani, will you just eat the fucking peach?”

“Alright, calm down.” Her brown eyes darken as she bites a bigger piece of the flesh. It takes her a bit longer to swallow it.

A dribble of juice drips down her neck. My lips make contact with the juice, my tongue traveling its way up to where the dribble begins.

Once I get all the juice licked off her neck, my sticky lips make a home on hers. “Give me the peach.”

She hands over the round piece of fruit to me.

I bite off some of the flesh where Dani’s bite marks are.

There’s a line of peach juice going down my cheek.

“Swipe your thumb across my cheek,” I demand.

Running her thumb over the skin on my cheek, she holds her thumb up in the air.

By the look in her eyes, I can tell she knows what I’m going to do.

I bring her thumb up to my lips, slowly sliding it into my mouth and sucking on it.

She whips her head away from me.

I lean forward to see what she’s doing.

She’s rolling her eyes and breathing out deep. “What is it about you and sucking on my thumb, huh?”

There are other places I’d love to suck.

I release her thumb from my mouth, licking away the residual liquid remaining on my lips with my tongue.

“What do you want me to do now, Heart Eyes?” she asks, her eyes making every bone in my body ignite.
