Page 74 of The Very First Night

Pressing a soft kiss to her lips, I pull away, scooting down the bed to bring my face level with the apex of her thighs. Kat squirms against my sheets, but she doesn’t say a word. I take this as the go-ahead and dip downward, allowing my hot breath to ghost over what I hope is wet skin below the thin scrap of fabric before pressing a kiss atop the red barrier.

“Tanner, please,” Kat moans, and it takes everything in me not to strip off my sweatpants and drive deep into her right this second. However, I am a gentleman, and Katarina Marritt deserves to know what it feels like when a man is fully driven by her pleasure and nothing else.

“Yes?” I mumble. I press my lips to her inner thigh and she trembles.

“Please,” she says, her moans shifting into whimpers.

I chuckle, bringing my lips back against her pussy with only the thin piece of fabric keeping me from licking her senseless. “Please what?”

She glares at me playfully and I know instantly that I’ve toyed with her enough.

I grab the edge of her soaked panties and pull them down, exposing her glistening skin. The scent of her arousal fills my nostrils, and without hesitation, I trace my tongue from her entrance to her swollen clit, never breaking eye contact as she watches me intently.

“Goddamn, sweetheart. You taste incredible,” I mumble against her sensitive core.

When I return my attention to her bundle of nerves, she lets out a guttural moan and arches her back, begging for more. I wrap my lips around her clit and suck hard, making her grind her perfect pussy against my mouth.

I focus on her throbbing clit, delicate and swollen between my lips. Her moans grow louder as I suck and flick at it with my tongue. She arches her back, pleading for more, and I eagerly oblige, sucking hard while using my other hand to part her and expose her perfect pussy.

She rocks against me, grinding her hips and urging me on. Eagerly, I plunge two fingers deep inside her, feeling her sex grip them tightly. With each thrust, she bucks and writhes, pushing herself closer to the edge of pleasure.

But I’m not done yet. I continue to pump my fingers in and out of her while maintaining my assault on her sensitive bundle of nerves. She cries out in ecstasy, unable to contain her pleasure any longer. I revel in the power as I bring her to the brink again and again until she finally succumbs to her orgasm.

Gently, I press featherlight kisses against her inner thigh, giving her a moment—but just a moment—of reprieve.

KAT

Oh. My. God.

My entire body tingles and trembles as I slowly come down from the most intense orgasm I’ve ever experienced in my life. Tanner’s touch is like nothing I have ever felt before, his hands and tongue on my body working magic that I’m still not sure is humanly possible. My thoughts are muddled and my legs feel weak as I struggle to catch my breath. The only other person to ever bring me to climax is Elijah, but Tanner has somehow unlocked a new level of pleasure for me, one I didn’t even know existed.

I can feel my legs trembling and my breathing becoming more labored as I collapse onto the bed, completely spent but bathing in the intoxicating anticipation of what comes next. Tanner appears to be waiting for my cue as he continues to softly brush kisses against my inner thigh, devoting an attention to my needs I never realized I was missing.

“Hey.” My voice, raspy and quiet, rings through the air.

“Hey,” Tanner responds, matching my inflection.

“Can you come here?” My voice cracks, but not with sorrow. To be honest, I think it’s because my vocal cords are so fried from how loud I was.

Oh my God, could someone have heard us?!

Tanner appears at my side, resting his head in his hand as he gazes at me, his brows pulled together in concern as he asks, “Are you okay?”

“Why wouldn’t I be?” I watch as tension physically leaves his form before he flashes me the very smile that I know so many women have gone feral for. “Thank you, by the way.”

He laughs. “You know, it isn’t exactly customary to thank someone after they give you an orgasm, but you are very welcome. How would you rate my services? We all hope for a ten out of ten, but I am also humble enough to know that we can all improve at everything.”

“Asshole.” I giggle and smack his shoulder. “I mean thank you for being willing to do this.”

His brows pinch together in confusion. “It’s hardly a hard sell, Kat. Have you seen you?”

My nose wrinkles at his compliment, feeling a mix of both pleasure and embarrassment. I quickly brush it off, leaning in to press my lips against his. As our mouths move together, I can taste the remnants of my arousal on his tongue, igniting a fire within me. The heat spreads through my body like wildfire, making me crave him even more.

Whimpering against his lips, I whisper, “I want you inside me.”

Tanner’s hands dart to the bedside drawer without a shred of hesitation, pulling out a gleaming gold packet and tossing it on the bed. As he moves to remove his sweatpants and slowly slides them down his hips, I can’t help but will him to go faster. My heart races with anticipation as I watch.
