Page 18 of Losing Hope

She didn’t even have a second to react before his arms snaked under hers, pulling her up to him, his lips locking on to hers. As she threaded her arms around his neck, meeting his passion with equal ferocity, he rolled her onto her back. His lips broke from hers as quickly as they had found them, and he moved down her body, his hands landing on herhips.

“These need to go.” He grabbed onto the edge of her silk panties and pulled hard, the material cutting into her skin slightly before it finally released and tore off ofher.

She yelped in shock but couldn’t deny his caveman tactic caused her pussy to clench with desire. He was back on top of her in another second, his lips finding hers as he moved to position himself between her legs. She spread them wide, anxious to finally have him inside her, and she didn’t have to wait. He used his hand to guide himself into her, finally slamming home in one thrust.

They moaned into each other at his welcomed intrusion and began moving as they became one. He slowed his thrusts down as he gripped her leg and bent it so he could push even deeper into her. She met him thrust for thrust, their bodies slick from sweat, slipping each time they came together. His grip on her tightened, and she knew it would leave a bruise, but she didn’t care. She could feel every inch of him inside her, and it awakened a fire in her that she thought couldn’t be lit again.

Her body started to tingle and tighten, and she knew her climax was close. Her eyes clenched, and she dug her fingernails into Gage’s arms, tightening her hold on him, trying to fuse herself to him as fireworks exploded behind her eyelids, words breathlessly tumbling out of her. “I’m coming… I’m coming…”

He clung to her as her pussy clenched around his cock, tightening like a vise before finally convulsing around him, and his release burst from him in hot jetted spurts. His body went rigid, his cock throbbing in time to her contractions.

A long moan left her as she loosened her hold on him and her body began to relax. “Oh. My. God. That was so, so, so, good.”

His cock was still twitching inside of her, so he pulled her back against his body. “Not so fast. I’m not ready to leave the comfort of that nice, warm place my cock has found.”

She reached up and slapped him playfully on the shoulder. “Gage!”

“What?” He chuckled. “It might be the best place he’s everbeen.”

“He can come visit anytime he wants.” As soon as the words were out, she slapped a hand over her mouth in embarrassed shock. “I can’t believe I just saidthat!”

He pulled her in a little tighter, his chest rumbling with light laughter. “Nothing wrong with having a little company over from time totime.”

She leaned her head back to look at him in feigned disbelief. “I’m not sure if I’d refer to him as little. But maybe I just haven’t had enough visitorstoknow.”

He looked down at her in confusion. “Wait, are you trying to tell me an unbelievable woman like you hasn’t had many visitors? I would think you’d have company banging down your door.” He laughed lightly. “Pardon thepun…”

“Well, good company is hard to find sometimes.” She shrugged lightly. “Why? How much company have youhad?”

“Uh-uh. Nope. Not going there.” He shook hishead.

“Well, that’s not very fair,” she retorted, her voice sulky.

“Let’s just say I’ve had enough company to throw a good size party.”

“Oh.”

A very long, uncomfortable moment of silence settled between the two of them as she let his words sink in. She tensed and was about to getup.

“Wait,” he murmured against her hair, holding her body to his. “I’m sorry if that offendedyou.”

“You didn’t offend me. Really, I was just thinking that I’m twenty-eight years old and haven’t even had enough visitors to have a decent dinner party.”

This time, he pushed her away from his chest and looked into her eyes. “You think that’s a bad thing?”

She lifted her shoulders and frowned slightly. “Is it a good thing? I don’t know. I probably work toomuch.”

He placed a bent finger under her chin and lifted it to look her in the eyes. “Yes, it’s a good thing. It means that me being here isn’t something you take lightly. I like that I might fall into the good companycategory.”

Her eyes softened at his words, and her embarrassment floated away, being replaced by something lighter in her heart. “Thank you, Gage.”

He placed a soft kiss on top of her head as she rested it back on his chest. “Thank you, Hope.”
