Page 20 of Echoes

Her eyes widen slightly at my words, but I look away, laying my stomach flat on the ground. I'm inches away from her, the smell of her sweet arousal hitting my senses. It's fucking intoxicating, ruthless. She could end me in a single minute if she wanted. I wasn't wrong when I said she's a fucking force of nature.

There's so much potential for her, locked up in a mind cage. She deserves better, she deserves to be free.

I take my time with her, my fingers prying her open as I examine every single inch of skin. I want to remember all of her, have her burned into my memories.

My hand runs along her thigh and pelvis, softly touching her soft skin. She shivers under my touch, drawing a smile to my face.

Slowly, I trail my thumb along her slit, teasing her. When I reach the top, I press inward, circling her clit with my digit.

I hear her suck in a breath, my stomach clenching at the sound. I can't wait any longer, my face leaning in so I can replace my finger with my tongue.

One swipe. Then two more.

Her legs buckle and shake so easily, my arms wrapping around her thighs so I can hold them in place. Then I bury my face into my new home, lips sealing around her clit.

"Theo," she gasps, surprised, hands clawing at the ground.

I smile against her, writing my name with my tongue. I've already marked her with my ink, and now, I'm marking her pussy with my mouth. I focus heavily on the last letter, drawing it over and over, until she's shaking against me.

Avery tenses up and I know she's close, so I slide two fingers inside her warmth, pleased when she clenches around me. She's squeezing me like she's holding on for dear life, and I'm fucking here for it.

I curl my fingers, finding her g-spot. Pressing up, I stroke it firmly, turning my attention to her clit. She whimpers my name again, voice breaking beautifully as she finds her release. I refuse to let go, eating her until she's a fidgeting mess, impaled on my fingers.

As she slumps back on the ground, I remove my hand, crawling up her body.

"Look at me," I demand, watching as her eyes focus themselves on me. When I have her full attention, I pop one finger into my mouth, sucking it clean. Her mouth falls open in awe, eyes sparkling with that light again. It's been dimmed the past few days, and I'm ecstatic to see the return.

When I'm finished removing every trace of her from my finger, I move my hand to her face, the other finger gently grazing down her lips. She opens them slowly, my cock twitching painfully. Our eyes remain locked together as she sucks my finger, tasting herself.

Fuck.

"You're so fucking beautiful," I tell her, reaching down to free myself from the gray slacks. My cock springs out, aching for thefeel of her. She's so close, yet so far away, and it takes all of my control and restraint not to just slam into her.

"You are," she answers, making me pause.

No one has ever told me before in my life that I'm beautiful. And if you'd asked me before today how I'd feel about it, I'd be indifferent—repulsed even. But hearing her say it, sends a rush through me.

"Fuck, Avery," I growl, shuffling forward as I rub her clit with the head of my cock. "Do you have any idea what you do to me?"

She shakes her head, and it makes me want to kiss her. She's so naïve, so blind. It's no wonder she has people falling to their feet over her. In her mind, she's at rock bottom, watching as people hit the same level too. But in reality, she's far from that lie. She's a fucking powerhouse, bringing even the most broken, lost souls to salvation.

"I'll show you," I say to her, watching her eyes roll back as I stroke her clit with my cock. "I'll make you feel the same way you make me feel."

"Do it," she whispers, begging. "Please, Theo."

The sound of my name on her lips breaks the last tiny fragment of control, and I quickly adjust my position before slamming into her. Her back rockets up the carpet, cries spilling from her lips as I bury myself into her tight cunt.

I don't wait—I can't—as I smash our bodies together. Her walls tighten around me, locking us as one, and I grab the nape of her neck, bringing our faces together.

"I could die right now," I growl, looking into her gray orbs. "It would be the best death. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else exceptin you."

She moans, my mouth quickly covering hers as I swallow them. I don't care who hears. Let them. She's mine and right now, that's all that matters. I'll kill anyone who takes this from me. They will never touch her again. They'll never take her away.

If anyone lays a single finger on her, bruising her perfect skin, I'll soak them in gasoline and make a bonfire.

The sound of our skin hitting together echoes around the library, Avery's body sliding further and further up the carpet. My hand whips out and grabs hold of the bookshelf, while my other grips on to her. I kiss her heatedly—how could I not? She's the drug of my choice and I need this as much as she does.

I feel her start to spasm around me, so I let go of her neck, sitting up. My hand slips between our bodies, rubbing her clit fast. I'm fighting back my own orgasm, determined to get her there first. I won't rest until she's coming on my cock.
