Page 49 of Shameless With Him

I pushed back, pulling him deeper. “Keep going, please.”

“As the lady wishes.” He thrust into me, once, twice, and then over and over again, my body arching for him, wanting more.

Just as I was about to come, he pulled all the way out and then flipped me onto my back. He was still standing, my legs dangling off the side of the mattress before he put my feet up onto his shoulders. And then he kept pounding, thrusting, needing.

He was very lucky that I was flexible because my thighs were on my chest, my knees up to my shoulders, and he was leaning forward, his mouth on mine, as he kept pistoning inside of me.

When he flicked his thumb over my clit, I came, unable to hold back.

He thrust again, this time harder, and I could feel him come, his whole body tense as he filled the condom, his mouth firm on mine.

I was sweaty, aching, and knew that this had been one of the best moments of my life. He slowly let my legs down and moved so we were both on the bed, trying to catch our breath. Caleb got up and took care of the condom, but I couldn’t even open my eyes to see what he was doing. Instead, I just lay there, panting, my hands lazily stroking my breasts because I couldn’t help it. Caleb had touched them, kissed them, made me feel more like a woman than I ever had before in my life.

When he slid next to me on the bed, I opened my eyes and sucked in a gasp as he slowly traced his fingers along my brow and my cheek.

“I don’t know why we didn’t do that sooner,” Caleb said.

“I don’t know why, either.”

That was the understatement of the century. At least, for me.

“That was amazing,” he said, and I was so afraid that he was going to say that it was a mistake. That this was it. So long, goodbye. Thanks for the bang.

“I had fun. We should do it again.”

I said the words quickly, hoping he wouldn’t break my heart.

Something passed over his face, and I thought he was going to actually do it. Say that it was a mistake and that it was time to go. But, instead, he leaned down and kissed me.

“I wouldn’t mind. I like being with you. We can see where this goes. Are you okay with that? No promises. We’ll just see.”

I nodded, then kissed him again, my heart exploding and breaking all at the same time. Because I wanted this, this is what I needed. This could have been part of the plan. I just didn’t want it to be the only thing we did.

But he didn’t say it was just sex, didn’t say that this was the last time.

And as he pulled me closer and held me, I thought maybe this could work. Perhaps I hadn’t moved too fast.

But even as he held me, I couldn’t help but wonder what exactly he had been thinking when his eyes changed. What secrets did he keep?

Because Caleb Carr was full of them, always had been. But I couldn’t help but fall to sleep in his arms, wondering what would happen when I woke up. And trying to figure out if this had all been one of my dreams.
