“David, do you have a condom?” she asked, squeezing me until I almost came.
I reached over and pulled the beside table drawer open, saying a silent prayer of thanks when I saw an unopened box of them.
As much as I wanted my mouth on her, there’d be time for that later. All night. All day tomorrow. As often as she’d allow me, my mouth, my hands, my body would lavish her with thelove I knew in my soul I felt for her, even when I knew I couldn’t say the words.
I tore a foil packet open and observed her eyes as she watched me roll it on. That desire to see, to know, was one of the things I liked best. No—loved most.
“Please, David.” She reached for me again, and I positioned myself at her entrance and eased into her tight channel. Her fingers dug into my arms, and the muscles of her legs that she’d wrapped around me stiffened. I stilled.
“Sullivan?” I said when I looked up and saw her face scrunched. “Am I hurting you?”
“No. It’s just been a while.”
“For me too.”
She pried her eyes open and gazed into mine. “It was just the once.”
I leaned down and kissed her, making love to her mouth with my tongue while I waited for her body to let me in. When I felt her pussy softening, I eased in a bit farther, then stilled again, keeping my eyes riveted to hers before reaching between us and fingering her clit.
“David?” I thrust into her, then withdrew before doing it again. “David?” she repeated.
“Yes, love?”
“I think, I mean, I’m going to…”
I increased my pace but restrained myself from going too hard and too deep, all the while gently rubbing her clit until she cried out, her body arching to take more of me as she repeated my name again and again.
I moved my finger and slowed but didn’t withdraw, biding my time until I was certain she was ready for more. When she reached around and grabbed my arse, forcing me deeper inside, I let myself go. Knowing I wouldn’t last much longer, I found her mouth, crashing into it with mine, wanting desperately to feelher kiss as I came. My cock pulsed, and I shuddered, knowing that, for the first time in my life, I’d made love. It was more than sex. It was love with the woman I’d spent years dreaming about.

SULLIVAN
Why had I told David I’d only been with a man once before? What must he be thinking about me now? That I was a loser who not only divided my time solely between work and home, but I also never had sex?
No friends. No lovers. No life. I certainly wasn’t what one might consider a catch. Oh, and someone powerful enough to have an SIS agent killed while in custody also wanted me dead.
When David shifted, I thought for sure he’d get up, but instead, he wove his fingers in my hair and stared into my eyes. I’d never wanted to read someone’s mind more than I did right now.
“Just say it.”
His eyes scrunched, and his head cocked. “Say what? I mean, there are many things I’d like to say. I’m just wondering which you’re so anxious to hear.”
“I’m…you know.”
“Sexy as fuck?”
His words were so unexpected that I laughed out loud. Then it dawned on me he was being sarcastic. “I know, right?”
He reached down, cupped my pussy, and inserted one finger inside me. “Sexy. As. Fuck.”
My back arched when he added a second finger and pressed his thumb against my clit.
“I want you so much. I’m already hard as stone.” He thrust deeper, and I clenched around his fingers. “Especially when you do that.”
“I think it’s a reflex,” I said through gritted teeth.
“Let go.”
