Page 29 of F*cking Shattered

A soft whimper escapes me. He’s moving so slow and cautiously, I can’t keep it in. I feel him harden against my outer thigh, and my muscles tense with anticipation.

Without breaking the kiss, he places himself between my parted legs, pressing right where I need him to. His hand snakes up under my shirt, and he palms my breast while teasing my taut nipple.

The way his body feels against mine is nothing short of euphoric. He knows all the right places to touch to have me busting at the seams. Every inch of my skin craves this man: his touch, his taste, him.

He grinds against me in a rhythm that has me wanting to push him off so I can slide down his hard length. I’m dripping with need, and I haven’t even lost an article of clothing yet. Our limbs are tangled together as our hands rush around one another’s bodies unabashedly. I’m no longer trying to convince myself I don’t want him. I’m trying to remember why I didn’t want him in the first place because right now, he’s all I want. He’s strong and hard, and the way he’s kissing me has me seeing stars.

His hands slide my sweat pants and panties down my legs, and my shirt has long ago been pushed up to reveal my breasts. While his hands and mouth work me over, he continues to grind against me. I can feel my wetness soaking his boxers.

“You’re always so fucking wet for me,” he nearly growls as he strips his now wet underwear off his hips.

His lips crash with mine again, and with nothing between us, his thick cock presses right where it needs to. With one roll of his hips, he could be deep inside me. I waggle myself against him eagerly, hoping he enters me, even if it’s just a little. I need relief from this pressure that’s building up inside of me.

“Do you want me inside you, princess?” His voice is thick and rough, filled with need and determination.

“Yes,” I practically pant out.

He’s holding himself up by his elbows on either side of me as he looks down with his cocky grin. “Say it. I want to hear how badly you want me inside of you.” His lips find my neck where he kisses and nibbles on the sensitive skin, further teasing me. His hard cock slides between my slick folds, causing a jolt of passion to run through me. Just when I think he’s going to push inside me, he pulls away, only to repeat the process again.

“I want you inside of me. Now!”

He pulls his lips away from my neck. “That’s all you had to say, sweetheart.” Without regard, he thrusts into me deeply, making me call out and dig my nails into the skin of his back. He pulls out before sliding back in with powerful thrusts that push me up the bed. He’s so big and hard, he completely fills every inch of me. The sudden fullness hurts, but in an absolutely pleasurable way.

His hands grip my hips, holding me so he can thrust even deeper. My eyes open to see his sculpted muscles flexing and moving while he owns me in every way possible. Our breathing is loud and erratic while our bodies get what they want. My toes go numb as my release builds higher and higher until I break around him.

When I come down from my high, he pulls out of me and turns me over, grabbing me by my hips and lifting me onto all fours. “I hope you didn’t think I was done with you yet,” he growls, sliding back into me. It feels like he’s even bigger and going deeper in this position. I grasp the pillows firmly as the sound of our skin slapping and the bed squeaking fills the room.

The headboard begins banging off the wall every time he pushes back into me. I tighten myself around him, preparing to be ripped apart with another orgasm when he says, “touch yourself. I’m going to come and I can’t stop it. Finish with me.”

His movements never slow as I reach between my legs and circle the hard nub that surges with pleasure with every little touch. Every muscle in my body tenses even harder with my hand rubbing over my sensitive sex and him filling me. We both let out a moan of pleasure as our orgasms rush over us. I’m convulsing around him, milking him for every last drop.

He thrusts forward with a final shudder, before we both collapse, tangled together.

All I can hear is my heart pounding away like a jackhammer. My lungs burn, needing more oxygen, but I can’t seem to get enough. Sweat clings to my body like a second skin as we lie together in the mess of sheets.

He rolls to his side to look at me, placing his hand on my jaw again. “Stop denying that you have no claim to me and just fucking admit you want me as badly as I want you. It’s nothing to be ashamed of.” He stands and walks to the bathroom, leaving me looking after him, wondering if he’s right.

Should I just give up on trying to keep some distance between us? It seemed like an impossible task anyway. Maybe I should relax and just let whatever happens, happen.

But falling for this guy could really break me. Can I handle that on top of just losing my best friend? I’m sure there is only so much heartbreak a person can take, and I’m not the strongest person to begin with. There’s always been something broken about me, can I handle more pain, more loss?

I pull the blanket around me and roll over to face the wall. My eyes flutter closed as my heart rate slows.

I’m almost asleep when he walks back into the room, crawling into bed behind me. He slides his left arm up under my pillow and pulls me against his chest while wrapping his right arm around my middle. His heat and scent flow over me like a soothing blanket, and I drift off into a peaceful sleep.

I wake in the morning to an empty bed. I wonder where he went, but don’t worry long. I decide to slip into the shower to wake up.

When I step out, I dry off and pull on some clothes before walking back out into the room. River is unloading a brown, paper bag onto the bed.

“I figured you wouldn’t want to go back over to that restaurant, so I ran over and got us breakfast.”

I smile from his sweet gesture. “Thank you.” I sit on the bed and he hands me a cup of coffee. I take a sip and the sweet mixture warms my throat.

“I didn’t know what you wanted to eat, so I just got us both breakfast sandwiches.”

“That’s perfect. Thanks.”
