Ari’s thighs clamped firm around her, keeping her upright, keeping her in place as his fingers prodded for entry. Kelsey cried out as first one finger, then another, found their way deep inside her, the walls of her sex contracting tight at the thick, blunt intrusion.

‘You’re so wet,’ he muttered around her nipple before scraping his teeth against the hard aroused point and sliding another finger to the swollen knot of nerves at the apex of her slippery inner folds.

It was all it took, just a few rubs of her clit and the low pull morphed into an intense ball of pleasure uncoiling in one almighty release, streaking rapture like lightning to every cell in her body.

Kelsey’s breath strangled in her lungs as she called his name. ‘Ari!’

Her body bucked as the sensation unfurled with flashpoint intensity, breaking like a storm, and he groaned as the hot, wet channel of her pussy clamped tight around his fingers.

Kelsey didn’t know how long it lasted. She lost all sense of time as wave after wave rocked her and spun her around. All she knew was her heart was still hammering and her clit was still quivering, and she’d barely regained the strength in her legs when Ari slid his fingers from her body.

‘Theé, Kelsey.’ He dropped fevered kisses all over her chest, her neck, her collarbones and breasts. ‘Se chreiázomai kai theló na se gamiso.’

She didn’t understand the Greek but his hands felt good sliding over her body, saturated as it was with sensation. His touch showered sparks up and down her legs as he urged them apart, and hot whispers straight into her ear in his mother tongue fanned goosebumps down her neck.

The low timbre of his voice washed over her dreamily as her knees widened and she lowered into his lap, her big toes just touching the floor. The thick, hard nudge of him against the slick lips of her sex finally brought her back to herself. She moaned and opened her eyes, finding him watching her, his mouth a straight line, his jaw rigid, his eyes dark and intense.

‘Agápi mou.’ His chest heaved. ‘I need you.’

The combination of his soft endearment and his expression of quiet desperation undid her, and Kelsey kissed him, long and deep, feeling between them for his latex-covered shaft and notching him at her entrance.

Ari fell back, groaning as she slowly swallowed him up, her moan of satisfaction lighting a fire in his belly as his fingers closed convulsively around her hips. She fell forward, gasping ‘So good’ as she took him all the way to the hilt, her forehead pressing to his chest.

Then she raised herself up, anchoring her hands on his shoulders and leaning all her weight forward, her jaw set, her gaze locking on his like a heat-seeking missile. Raising a hand to her hair, she pulled it out of its knot and sent it cascading around her shoulders.

‘Don’t move,’ she whispered. ‘Let me.’

The instruction went straight to his balls and Ari’s hands tightened on her hips as he let her take control. She rocked against him then, a glaze in her eyes that told Ari all he was going to need to do was to hang on. And hang on he did as she set up a rhythm, her full breasts swaying hypnotically to the rock of her hips.

Her tightness undulated along his shaft in an erotic grip that ratcheted up his heart rate and squeezed the muscles of his thighs and ass and belly in a vice. But it clearly wasn’t enough for Kelsey, a frustrated grimace marring her features as she leaned forward, leaned into the hands that were gripping his shoulders.

But still it didn’t seem enough as she half growled, half whimpered, shutting her eyes and sinking her teeth into the cupid’s bow of her top lip, her hair forming a curtain around her face.

She wasmagnificent.Like an avenging angel hunting down an orgasm it seemed she couldn’t quite reach.

She stole Ari’s breath.

He slid his hand from her hip to the slick heat between her legs. ‘No,’ she said, panting as her hips flexed faster. ‘Too sensitive.’

‘Tell me.’ He withdrew his hand. ‘Tell me what you need.’

Anything.He’d do anything.

An aggravated little mewling noise slipped from her lips as her eyes blinked open and zeroed in on his. ‘I don’t know,’ she said, her tone desperate as one of her hands turned from gripping his shoulder to pummelling it a couple of times. ‘It’s… just… there.’

Her arms trembled and her thighs trembled, and her face was flushed and he could see the mad flutter of her pulse at the base of her throat. Air chugged in and out of her lungs in breathy gasps.

‘What about this?’

He thrust then as she sank down and she cried out, her green eyes widening, her fingernails sinking into the flesh of his shoulders. ‘Oh God.’ She moaned and her eyes almost rolled back in her head. ‘Yes.’

Her guttural approval was like petrol to the flame burning in his loins and Ari thrust again, harder this time.

She gasped as her head rocked. ‘Yes. Just like that.’

Grunting as he leashed the relentless pull of his own orgasm, Ari gave it to her again,just like that.
