“I’m gonna have to check him for explosives.”
Warmth encapsulated me.I smiled as I rolled in IKE’s arms, pressing my nose into his chest. Breathing in his scent, I pressed a kiss just below his collarbone.
“Feel better?” he asked, his voice a low rumble in the afternoon light.
“So much better.” I couldn’t sleep another fucking minute.
His fingers trailed lightly up and down my back in a steady rhythm as he tried to lull me to sleep again. He could go pound the sand. There wasn’t a chance in hell I was going to fall for that again.
“I know what you need.” His voice rumbled through me as he shifted, working his way down my body.
Nope.
This wasn’t happening. He had kept me trapped in this bed with sex and sleep for the past three days and I couldn’t take another fucking minute of it. He was scared and this was his way of trying to make me do things his way, but I had tricks, too.
“Actually,” I said, tugging on his hair. “I’m really hungry.”
His head popped up and his eyebrow shot up in a questioning arch. I traced it with my finger, smiling at how sexy he looked. Yes, I was trying to get out of sex with this man. There was only so much a girl could take, even with a man like IKE. My lady parts needed a breather, and my legs needed a stretch, something that wouldn’t happen as long as IKE was in charge.
“You haven’t been very hungry since we got out of the hospital.”
“I know. It must be all the exercise I’ve been getting,” I grinned.
“What are you in the mood for?” he asked. His tongue swirled in my belly button, trailing up my chest to my breasts. My nipples responded, tightening with need, but my pussy was begging for a break.
“Um…Chinese food.”
“That’s too far away, and they don’t deliver here.”
I pouted, knowing I could get him to do anything for me at this point. I sighed heavily. “I really wanted it.”
“Sweetheart…” He glanced up at me, his deep blue eyes melting the longer he looked at me. “Alright. I’ll get it for you.”
A bright smile broke out across my face. “Thank you.”
“Only for you.”
He got on all fours and kissed me hard before tossing off the blanket and pulling on his pants.
“Aren’t you going to shower first?” I asked, leaning on my elbow. I thoroughly enjoyed the view from behind as he got dressed. It was just as impressive as the front view. That nice, tight butt felt so good when it flexed as he thrust inside me. Myhands gripped tight to both cheeks last night as he took me over and over again.
“No need. I’m just gonna get filthy again when I get back here,” he said, shooting me a cheeky grin.
I found it interesting how much he had smiled over the past few days. IKE didn’t normally look happy too often. He was more of a broody character, but recently, it was like he was trying his hardest to prove a point or something. Maybe show that he could make me happy.
But I liked him the way he was. I liked the broody side of him as well as the more playful side. I didn’t want him to change who he was just because he thought he needed to show me he could make this work between us. I’d have to talk to him about that when he got back. But right now, my needs were just a tad more important.
He leaned over me, pressing a kiss to my lips. “Get some rest while I’m gone.”
“I’ll try to.”
He pulled the covers up and tucked me in. I smiled at him, though I really wanted to punch him in the face. Was there such a thing as being too sweet?
“I won’t be gone long.”
That just wouldn’t do. I needed at least a little freedom. I popped up as he headed for the door. “Could you also find a coffee shop on your way back and bring me a cappuccino?”
He quirked an eyebrow at me. “You want a cappuccino and Chinese food?”
