It had been a memorable evening, despite my surprise that he’d just shown up. His need for me had been almost palpable, and if I’m honest, I’d been equally needy. The pull between us is impossible to ignore, and frankly, I don’t want to. I like how he makes me feel, and how good it is. Separating the physical from the emotional can be tricky, but I’m an adult. I’ll figure it out.

“Hey.” I turn in his arms and nestle into his chest.

“Morning.” He wraps his arms around me though his eyes remain closed.

“Do you have practice?”

He shakes his head. “Day off.”

“Nice. Shall I let you sleep or…” I let my voice trail as I skim my hand over the curve of his very hard, muscular backside.

“Or?” He opens one eye.

“I don’t have today off, so I need to get in the shower. Are you coming?”

“Soon.”

Without a word, he flops onto his back, pulling me with him so my knees are on either side of his hips.

“Take what you need, baby.”

Our eyes lock and there’s a moment of what I can only describe as perfection.

He’s perfect.

We’re perfect.

What we’re doing is perfect.

I’ve never thought of sex, or a lover, this way before, but it makes sense in this context.

Because Canyon Marks is like no one else.

He rolls down a condom that seems to have appeared out of thin air, and then I just sink down.

Fuck, he feels so good inside me.

What is it about this man that makes me so ready to throw caution—and every ounce of common sense I have—to the wind? I’ve been around the block enough times to know that good sex doesn’t equal feelings or a relationship. But this isn’t some one-night stand either.

“That’s my girl, ride me like you own my cock.”

Well, that bossiness is certainly part of it.

The way he barks out commands turns me on like almost nothing else.

His gritty voice.

Those beautiful eyes looking up at me.

His cock buried to the hilt.

My eyes close, and I can’t think anymore.

The only thing I’m capable of right now is feeling.

And picking up speed.

Because the orgasm I’m chasing has already caught up to me, and my body tightens expectantly.
