Page 239 of A Love Like Venom

Fuck.

“I do,” she replies huskily. Then she leans her head back to where her lips are against the shell of my ear. “Then you can tell me howfineit was for you.”

It’s like all my blood is rushing to my cock and she’s saying the perfect words to get me started.

And as much as I would love to strip her bare and worship that work of art that is her body, I have other another plan.

A plan that has been a long time in the making.

So, my hard cock and my lust filled brain need to take a back fucking seat.

But that’s kind of hard to do when I have the perfect woman flush against me.

“Angel.”

“Yes?” She purrs.

I place my hands on her hips and give her a little squeeze. “We both know what will happen if you keep being a cocktease. I’ll have you on your back in five seconds flat and within the next twenty you’ll be coming all over me.But-”

“But what?” Her voice is breathy, and her eyes are lost in desire. An intoxicating combination but I can’t give in.

“But the sun is about to set, and I don’t want you riding while it’s dark. So, you’ll either get that sweet ass behind me or you’ll put that ass in gear and ride.”

“Protective and bossy,” she comments teasingly.

“With you, angel, I’m anything that’ll keep you by my side where you belong.” There’s no mistaking the seriousness in my tone. I’ll move heaven and earth to keep her by my side.

Swinging her leg over the bike she positions her body to where she’s straddling the seat but facing me. She throws her arms over my shoulders. Her fingers twine in the ends of my hair. Staring up at me a lovely smile appears on her face. Honey eyes filled with love and adoration.

In a soft voice she says, “Reed Carter, my beautiful dark romantic at heart.”

I bring my forehead down to rest on top of hers. I breathe her in. She calms me, centers me. “Only ever for you.”

Tilting her head the slightest bit her lips brush gently against mine for a soft kiss. “I love you.”

My lips twitch. Hearing her say those three words always has a profound effect upon me. And I know when I say it back it has the same effect on her. “I love you, too, angel. Now get your ass behind me. I’m taking you somewhere.”

“Where are you taking me?”

I quirk a brow at her. “Does it matter?”

She shakes her head. “No, as long as I’m with you it doesn’t matter where we are.”

My heart races from her pure words that come straight from her heart. “You’re fucking perfect, you know that?”

“And so are you.”

I press an opened mouth kiss to her lips, taking her by surprise. “I’m definitely not, angel but I’m glad you think so.”

Hopping off the bike she then gets back on and positions herself behind me. Pressing close she wraps her arms around me as her inner thighs hug my outer thighs.

“You’re perfect for me, Reed and that’s all that matters.”

This feeling, this indescribable magnificent feeling that only she can give me washes over me and takes hold.

The organ swelling inside my chest about to fucking burst.

Because this woman . . . this beautiful angelic intelligent woman loves me. She sees me as her perfect half.
