Chapter 17

LIZA

“What can I do for you, babe?”

“Just love me,” I stated as he climbed in the bed behind me and curled his naked body around mine.

“I already do love you,” he told me as he brushed my hair aside and placed tantalizing kisses along my hairline at the nape of my neck. I immediately shivered as the euphoric feeling sent chills up and down my spine. “You want me lovin’ you like this or you need something more?”

“More,” I panted out huskily. My body had its own demands and apparently it was speaking for me.

Tango backed away momentarily before rolling me onto my back. He then climbed up over top of me and leaned in to kiss my lips while probing my mouth gently with his tongue until I opened for him. We hadn’t had the chance for intimacy since before he left for Casper, because there was just too much to do and too much sadness weighing me down besides. There was a bit of guilt too, because I could do this and my brother would never get to be with his woman again. The flip side of my own argument was that he died so I could live. I wasn’t living if I was too guilty to do all the things that made life worth it.

“Where’d you go babe?” Tango’s smooth voice rolled over me in a low-level grumble that awoke a hunger I couldn’t argue away.

“Sorry,” I whispered. “I’m here, with you. Just remembering and reminding myself that it’s okay to keep on living.”

He made a weird noise before blanketing my entire body with his far larger one. “We don’t have to do this,” he stated as he moved to roll us both to the side facing one another.

“I want to.” It was a simple statement followed by my lips on his this time, and me pushing my naked, warm bodies closer to his yet again. I tossed my leg over his hip bringing us even closer and opening me up to him. Tango wasted no time, and pushed inside. I wrapped around him, breasts squished into his chest, left arm trapped beneath us, and my right moving its way up his backside as he pumped slowly in and out of me. We didn’t have the best angle, but we had a level of intimacy in this position that I had never experienced with anyone before. I trailed my hand down his back once more feeling the muscles work as he moved us. Once his taut ass was beneath my palm I squeezed and pulled, effectively signaling to him that I wanted to roll into a different position.

He obliged my needs, and moved with me, lifting my leg up into the cradle of his arm as he went. Tango, having a better position for it, started thrusting deeper into me, leaving me nearly breathless as he plunged in on a sharp down stroke and then pulled back out so very slowly. Each movement was a tease that took me closer to my release as he dragged back over that spot inside that demanded all the attention, but wasn’t quite getting there.

“T, I need…” I started to say, but his mouth came back down on me as he changed things up and swiveled his hips on the down stroke. When he pulled back from the kiss he was grinning like a loon.

“Do I have your attention now?” He asked as he did the hip swivel thing once again. I nodded my head enthusiastically causing him to laugh. “Good.” No more words accompanied that one as he picked up the pace and began thrusting in and out of me in earnest. My hands found his smooth, hard glutes and held on as he brought me to the point of no return and thrust once more tipping me over the edge. Tango followed behind me the warmth that shot into my body a reminder of the fact that we hadn’t stopped to use protection.

“Shit,” he hissed out after he pulled away a little to look into my eyes. “I didn’t use anything.”

“It’s okay. I don’t think it’s a particularly good time of the month for me to get pregnant.”

“That may be, but I want to get tested so that you know you’re safe.”

“T, you already told me I’m the first woman you’ve actually had sex with in over two years. I’m pretty sure you would have fixed anything you had by now.” I was teasing him, but it was true. The man hadn’t indulged in that way, and I didn’t think there was much danger from the few blowjobs he’d received either. If anything he should be worried about me, because I’d had definitely had one night stands here and there over the past couple of years. Not that I ever did without protection, but still. “If it makes you feel better, we can both go this week.”

“Yeah, we should do that, because babe, I never want to use a condom again with you. That felt incredible.”

“Have you never?” I couldn’t even finish the whole question, because jealousy kicked in and I didn’t want to think about him being with another woman, let alone the fact that he was about to propose to one before.

“Never been without before,” he confirmed quickly, probably sensing my discomfort.

“Oh,” was all I could manage to get out before he hopped off the bed and headed toward the bathroom.

“Be right back,” he announced. It was strange to think that we were both grown adults and yet we had just experienced a first together. When he got back with a washcloth in hand I told him as much.

“I’ve never done that either,” I admitted.

He just smiled and went to work cleaning me up between my legs. A part of me wanted to be embarrassed to have a man cleaning me up in that way, but he’d been the one to make the mess, and in such a wonderful way that I couldn’t complain or pull away from him no matter my slight discomfort. When he was done he tossed the rag on top of a small pile of clothes sitting off in the corner waiting to be laundered. Then Tango climbed in bed on the other side and pulled me to him so that my back was flush to his front.

“What the hell?” I giggled.

“I’m not laying in the wet spot, and neither are you. Lucky for us the bed is plenty big and we both fit on this side.” I had to chuckle at that. It was sound logic, and something I hadn’t thought of in my post bliss, worry-free moments.

“I don’t know what I’m supposed to do now,” I finally admitted to him. I felt Tango tense up behind me.

“What do you mean?”

“I mean, I was brought here and you guys were supposed to protect me, but I don’t know where I fit now. Am I supposed to go back to Reno?”
