“That’s fair,” he replied. He took a moment to scan over her face, down her body, taking her all in. “Now that we’ve agreed, does that mean I can kiss you?” Because, shit, he needed to kiss her.

King could see Lila’s pulse thrumming and her eyes dilating as she nodded, and damn if it wasn’t the sexiest thing he’d ever seen as he leaned over into her space and took her mouth. He hadn’t realized how much he’d missed the feeling of her softness yielding to his hardness. Even though they’d only kissed once. Their chemistry was heady, something he’d never experienced before.

The center console of the car became an issue, so King adjusted his seat so it was set all the way back and lifted a surprised Lila onto his lap so she was straddling him.

“Okay?” He cupped her face in his hands while he waited for a response.

“Better than okay.” Lila smiled as she leaned in to kiss him softly. He gripped her hips with his hands tightly, encouraging her to move over him. He couldn’t remember the last time he’d bothered with fooling around. Had it ever felt this good?

King’s first year with the females at Bradley U had been a comedy of errors. Luckily, he learned fairly quickly to discern between those who enjoyed hooking up and getting off with no strings and those who would be surreptitiously poking holes in your condoms if they thought you had a shot at going pro. He avoided that second category at all costs.

That Lila didn’t fit into either group was not something King was too concerned about at the moment, not when her tight little body was eagerly grinding against his. He could feel the brush of her erect nipples against his chest, and he wanted them in his mouth. But he knew he needed to take it slow with Lila; to let her show him what she wanted.

Almost as if she could read his thoughts, she broke their kiss and rocked back, taking his hands in hers, and guided them up her body to her chest.

Her expression was apologetic. “I’m sorry they’re so small.”

“Don’t insult the girls,” he chided. “They’re perfect.” Then he teased her with his fingers, flicking his thumbs against the hard buds, eliciting the most incredible sounds from his not-girlfriend.

His hands roamed and explored the lines of her body over her clothes then underneath her shirt, and he couldn’t help but imagine what it would be like if there were no barriers between them. King threaded his fingers through her tantalizing hair then found the spot on her neck that he remembered drove her crazy and sucked… Hard.

Her body stiffened even as she moved against him more frantically, and he read her body like a book. “You close, baby? Do you need me to help you come?”

“I don’t… I haven’t…”

King raised her chin up, shocked. “You haven’t had an orgasm before? Not even by yourself?”

She shook her head as a faint blush rose to her cheeks. “Let’s just say that being painfully shy and having conservative parents ensured that I haven’t…explored too much.” Lila blew out a breath, and her shoulders sagged. “Sorry, I’m making this awkward.”

The last thing King wanted her to feel was embarrassment, so he focused instead on making her feel good.

He lifted her chin up and grazed her bottom lip with his thumb. “You have nothing to be embarrassed about. Not with me, okay?”

She nodded.

“So you haven’t come before. Let’s see what we can do to change that, La.”

One of his hands found her hip again, and he helped her move over his erection, making sure she hit the spot she needed. He lost track of the time as she moved over him, his focus solely on her as he struggled to keep his composure.

His free hand wandered over the contours of her body. The slope of her back, the curve of her waist, the soft strands of her hair that never failed to drive him crazy. Every part of her tempted him in ways he’d never quite experienced before.

Eventually, King’s hand drifted back up to her breasts, his fingertips once again exploring her as she sighed. Lila looked down at him through her lashes, and that look was almost enough to make him lose his shit right then and there.

“Take what you need from me, La,” he grunted. “I want to see what you look like when you lose control.”

Lila’s movements quickened, her soft sounds drawing his attention back to her mouth, which King wanted to devour. He kissed her hungrily, doing with his tongue what he hoped he’d get to do with his dick one of these days. Listening to the sharp intake of her breath, he sensed she was close to the edge. And when he gently pinched her nipple, she cried out as her orgasm hit her.

King was damn near close to exploding too, but he let her ride it out as he tried to keep his shit together. Because that was the hottest thing he’d ever fucking seen.

Her face was beautifully flushed when she came back down from her high. “That was…” She shivered. “I mean, I didn’t know it could feel that way.”

“You liked that?”

She nodded shyly, which King found sexy as hell.

“That’s nothing compared to what it’ll feel like when I’m inside you.”

“When?” Lila teased.
