His lips pressed against her, his tongue flicking against her lips. “You mean more.”

Lilly lost all hold on reason and grasped his face, slanting her mouth over his and unleashing every bit of passion within her body. Jacob returned the kiss, threading his fingers into her hair and trapping her in the embrace, not that Lilly was looking to escape.

“Come home with me,” Jacob murmured against her mouth. “I need you with me tonight. You don’t know how good it felt to sleep with you in my arms.”

How could she deny him anything after the sacrifice he made this evening? Hell, she couldn’t deny him regardless, her body vibrated at his touch. “Yes, I do. It was magic. Are you sure that’s what you want?”

“I’ve never been more certain of anything in my life.”

Lilly captured his thumb between her teeth as he traced her lip. He’ll likely break my heart, but if I say no, it will ache forever. Lilly nodded, and Jacob gifted her with a smile before pulling back onto the road.

They reached his home within five minutes, and Jacob escorted her inside, turning on the fireplace in the living room. The touch of his hands on her back startled her, her breathing increasing as he pulled the zipper down, his lips kissing the back of her neck. “Let me help.”

Lilly spun around, clutching the gown to her body. Every cell of her being reacted to his touch, but she needed to ensure they were on the same page. Even though she hadn’t asked Jacob to make a choice, she knew all about remorse. It was its own kind of death—one that ate away at your soul. “I don’t want you to do anything you’ll regret tomorrow…any decisions you made in haste.”

Jacob kissed her firmly, his tongue playing along her lips. “I stand by my decisions. And there’s only one regret I could have for this evening.”

“What is that?”

Jacob’s lips caressed her clavicle, his tongue dancing along her skin. “Not being able to hold your body against mine tonight.”

His admission floored Lilly, and she stopped asking questions. Instead, she stood on tiptoe, pulling his mouth to hers. She deepened the kiss when he shivered, a low moan rising from his throat. Jacob’s arms pulled her close as he freed her hair from the clip, her waves tumbling over her shoulders.

His gaze was dark with desire when he pulled away. “If you keep kissing me like that, I’m going to lay you down and make love to you for the next three days.”

“Is that a promise?” Lilly stepped back, her body warm as his eyes raked over her form. Her hold on reason flew out the window when she saw the raw lust on his face—that insatiable wanting—all aimed at her. She released her grip on the gown and watched his eyes grow large as it pooled around her feet. “I have three days.”

Jacob groaned as he scooped her into his arms and laid her down on the plush rug by the fire. His tongue and teeth wasted no time unclasping her bra, his hands cupping her full breasts while his tongue suckled her nipples.

Lilly melted against his welcome onslaught. “It’s not fair, I need you naked too.”

Jacob unbuttoned his shirt, cursing about the number of buttons before jerking it over his head. Lilly reached up, her hands running over his chest and shoulders, her teeth nipping his neck.

Jacob claimed her lips again, his mouth possessing hers as his fingers traced down her abdomen to tease her clit. Lilly moaned into his mouth as his hand slid between her legs and his fingers sank into her, stroking her slow and deep.

Lilly bucked her hips against him, riding his hand with a slow rhythmic pace. “Oh, Jacob.”

Jacob’s lips broke from her mouth and attacked her neck, his tongue sucking the delicate skin. “You’re so tight, Lilly.”

Lilly arched into his caress, moaning at the feel of his mouth on her body. Jacob was working her into a frenzy of erotic sensations.

When his lips broke from her neck, Lilly grabbed his shoulders, willing him to return to her mouth. But Jacob had other ideas. He tongued down the length of her stomach, trailing kisses to the inside of her thighs. His fingers slid from within her and Lilly balked at the sudden emptiness. “No, no, please don’t stop.”

Jacob shot her a sultry, hooded gaze as his fingers hooked her g-string and pulled it off, his eyes reflecting back all the desire Lilly felt coursing through her body. “I’m just getting started.” He nuzzled her mound, his hands sliding under her ass and bringing her even closer to his mouth. “You have no idea how much I’ve wanted to taste you again.” He lowered his head between her legs and parted her folds with his tongue, his hands wrapping around her thighs.

Lilly bit back a whimper, her hips grinding against him. Jacob emitted a low growl, his tongue sinking inside her, and Lilly’s body clenched. She couldn’t think, all she could do was feel how his tongue teased every inch of her until her entire body was aflame with desire.

“I need you inside me.”

Jacob nipped her inner thigh, his deep blue gaze molten. “I’m not finished with you yet. I want to make you scream.”

His fingers slid inside her again as his tongue circled her clit, sucking gently. Everything went white as Lilly dug her nails into his shoulder and her body shattered underneath him.

Jacob eased her down from her orgasm, his lips nipping at her stomach and breasts before capturing her lips again. “You taste incredible, Lilly.”

Lilly’s hands slid down his abdomen and after some initial fumbling, she pushed his pants down, feeling the exquisite thrust of his erection pressed against her.

She fixed her gaze on him and saw a new emotion in his eyes, a deep-seated need emanating from their depths. They kissed, their lips fluttering against each other.
