Page 34 of Shielded Hearts

Suctioning it between his lips, he stared up the length of her body, watching pleasure ripple across her beautiful face.

Christ, she was lovely. So strong and smart. He never took the time to get to know any woman he slept with in the past, but with Aspen, he wished they had more time to spend together.

He’d take what he could get. Right now, that was her throaty moans.

With soft pulls of his lips, he continued to tease and torment her. Licking and spearing his tongue inside her before suckling gently on her hard clit until she threw her head back on a wild cry.

Her lips parted in an O of bliss. Her pussy quivered and pulsated under his questing tongue.

A tremor ran through her thighs. In a hard pulse, she came.

“Colt!” Her breathy moan shot him to a new level of need. Good thing he’d left his jeans on because the pressure of his zipped fly was the only thing keeping him from exploding.

A final shiver coursed through her…and she melted into the mattress.

Aspen ran her fingers over the warm velvet of Colt’s chest in sweeps. The swells enticed her. The ridges of his abs made her burn. And the hard length of his erection, stiff between their bodies, had her insides clutching.

She shot him a heated look. “I’m going to taste you.”

He waited, watching her with an intensity that stole her breath for a moment and rendered her frozen.

Slowly, she curled her fingers around his thick shaft. It jerked against her palm as he let out a rumble of pleasure that enhanced the moment. It had been a long time since she felt this bold. It made her head swim.

She gave him a slow stroke, letting his length slide through her hand. His abs hardened before her eyes, and his jaw firmed.

Driven on by the surge of lust in him, she slowly parted her lips around his mushroomed head. The instant she enveloped him in her mouth, his rough groan rumbled through his body.

He curled his fingers in her hair. “Christ, princess. Oh god, baby.”

Inch by inch, she swallowed his cock. He was big—too big to take all of him, so she curled her fist around the base and jacked him slowly as she sucked him in.

“Jesus! Your mouth is fucking heaven.”

Drunk on his bliss, she moved up and down on his length, sucking him deeper on every pass.

His body bowed, but in contrast, the tender brush of his fingers over her scalp raised a different kind of shiver inside her. This battle-hardened man could also display such softness that it stunned her speechless.

She applied more pressure with her lips, taking the spongy flared head along her tongue until he let out a low growl.

“Christ, Aspen! Stop.” He wrapped his hands around her upper arms and drew her up his body. His eyes flashed dark with need as he settled her over his hips, straddling him.

Leaning in, she kissed him long and deep. Three heartbeats didn’t pass before he tookcompletecontrol of her mouth.

Her insides blazed. This new need pulsing inside her drove her on as he rubbed his stiff cock against her slippery wet folds.

“We need a condom,” she murmured against his lips.

He stilled and let out a groan. “Dammit.” He stretched out a long arm and yanked open the nightstand drawer.

She shouldn’t be surprised that he kept condoms on hand. After all, how a gorgeous man like Colt didn’t have a different woman in his bed every night of the week astounded her.

He closed his fingers on a small box of condoms, but when he tried to pull the cardboard free, the corner got stuck. He shook the box to free it but only managed to make the nightstand legs scrape on the wood floor.

He barked out a low cuss that had her giggling. Swinging her leg over his strong hips, she crawled across the bed to get the condom herself. She was a strong, independent woman who knew what she wanted and how to get it. And right now, she was getting Colt inside her.

When she had a foil packet in hand, she threw him a coy smile.
