Page 126 of From You to Me

“Oh.” He smirked. “So you were planning to end up in my bed tonight?”

The flush that heated my skin pebbled my nipples hard against the thin lace of my bra. The gleam in his eyes told me how much his words got to me. But the gleam turned into a hint of sadness as they dragged to the sparkle lying on my chest.

His fingers traced the presents he gave me all those years ago. “I should’ve known,” he said, almost to himself.

“I never took them off.” The ‘J’ pendant and the peony ring were my objects of strength.

He swallowed. “I should’ve known when I saw you wearing them after all this time that you never stopped loving me. I’m sorry.”

“You wouldn’t have known, and it’s not your fault. Now shut up and come here,” I mumbled.

He shook his head, smiling as he threw away his hoodie and swaddled my body with his heat.

“Hmm, you’ve become bossy,” he muttered against my neck, sucking the skin whole. His teeth dragging along in long strokes, I was sure they were going to leave a heavy mark tomorrow.

“Jay,” I groaned, threading my fingers through his soft locks. “I want you, please.”

He pulled back, lips glistening under the dark bedroom lit just by the skyline twinkling through the open window.

His elbows rested on the sides of my ears. “Tell me exactly what you want. Do you want to be fucked or made love to?”

The red in my cheeks deepened. My pulse spiked, hammering in my ears. Feeling a sudden sense of bravery touch me, I whispered, “How about you fuck me all night and then make love to me at sunrise?”

“Fuck,” he gasped, his lips widening as a grin covered his face. “Didn’t expect that, but done,” he mumbled against my lips, sealing the promise.

He gave me a long, tantalizing kiss that I felt deep down in my bones. My drenched panties were making me uncomfortable at this point. I wanted out of them.

“How long can you stay on your knees?” he asked between the kisses. “I want to take you from behind.”

My throat tightened. “Not for long, but I can try.”

He nodded. “Then get naked for me.”

I swallowed as I watched him join me as we peeled off the rest of our clothes till only our bare skin remained.

His large hands grabbed hold of my waist as he pivoted me around. A gasp escaped me as my lips met the softness of the sheets.

My body shivered as he maneuvered me around. He slid a pillow under my hips, prodding me to get into position.

I brought my elbows on either side of my face as I got onto my knees.

“Is this okay?” he asked, sliding a pillow under my right thigh to take the impact off my knee.

“Yes,” I mumbled, wet and ready for him. The vulnerability of it made my fingernails curl around my palms.

“Good.” His hands clasped around my hip as I felt him kneel over me. “’Cause I’m going to fuck you hard.”

I trembled, screaming his name as he delved inside me in one large stroke.

So big and powerful.

I panted, losing my breath as he fucked me hard.

“Fuck,” he grumbled, slamming his hips into me. “Tell me, how does that feel, sweetheart?”

“Ugh.” I squeezed my eyes as the pleasure of his thrusting drove me wild and mad. At this angle, he hit a spot deep inside me that made my toes curl.

He stilled. “I’m not going to continue till you answer.”
