Page 27 of Let Me Say It Again

Before she could get another word out, I pressed my lips to her, and her nails scratched me in response. I knew what she wanted. I just didn’t believe in rushing things. Hell, I’d wanted Jade for a while and never once made a move. I sure as shit wasn’t going to rush this.

I dragged my tongue through her heat, reveling in the way she tasted sweet and tangy all at once. I should’ve known she wouldn’t be completely sweet. No, a woman with layers to her like Jade would have arousal that tasted different. It was all I could do not to furiously lap it up with my tongue. With every languid stroke of my tongue, she hummed her approval.

I switched my tactic to sucking and biting, my teeth nipping the sensitive area and then the tip of my tongue soothing it while also driving her anxious with need. I grew harder and cursed myself as I peered up and watched her eyes close tightly and her lips part. Jade was close.

She pushed her hips forward, urging me to continue so that she could come. So, I got into a rhythm—biting, licking, kissing, sucking. When her hands flew out of my hair and her arms drew up in a frenzy, one hand running through her own hair like she couldn’t take the tight coil she felt deep inside her for one more second, I captured her clit and ran my tongue across her one more time. That was all it took for her knees to shake.

I held her upright, bringing a hand around her lower back. “I have you, Jade. You can let go whenever you’re ready.”

Her eyes flickered open for a moment and searched mine, and it felt as though time had stopped as she looked for something—what I wasn’t sure—in my gaze. Her clit was throbbing as I swirled my tongue around it and flicked it before pressing a thumb to it. “Don’t say shit like that,” she panted out.

“What do you mean?”

She didn’t immediately respond, so I kissed her clit before taking away the pleasure and pausing. I did it again, and this time a strangled noise sounded in her throat. She might not have liked it, but her body did because she grew wetter each time.

Her breathing was erratic, and she seemed to be hanging on by the thinnest thread. “Sappy shit that sounds like you care, that sounds like promises.”

My eyes flicked up to her, but I decided not to get into that right now. Instead, I focused on her clit, tonguing it and taking every bit of arousal like it belonged to me. Wasting a drop of it would be a fucking sin.

“Oh, I’m so close!” Jade screamed, the sound of her cries lingering in my ears long after she made them.

Everything about her drew me in. I had no idea how this little façade was supposed to work, but I was more than a little happy that it was her I chose to lie about being engaged to.

I flicked the tip of my tongue over her, and that was all it took for her to unravel and come completely undone beneath me. Her hands were in her hair, her mouth parted as she let out moan after moan, each one growing louder than the last.

Hopefully, she didn’t wake any of her neighbors at this obscenely late hour. Oh, who was I kidding? I wouldn’t give a damn if she did. It would’ve been because of me and the pleasure I was giving her, so I welcomed it. I said wake the whole damnbuilding with your cries, Jade. “God,” she cried out before slowly returning to me and the present.

Watching her lose herself and shatter beneath me and then come back together just made the list of top moments in my life. I continued licking, taking every last drop she had to give me.

Was I a sucker? Sure. But I was a sucker for Jade. I supposed it was part of the deal when you had a crush on a woman who had no idea you were crushing on her.

Son of a bitch. I was starting to sound like a fucker who was going to draw a bubble bath and watch romance movies. I wouldn’t be doing that, by the way.

She opened her eyes, those big, brown irises staring down at me filled with contentment and. . . was that a hint of happiness I detected?

Letting go of her dress, the fabric hung over her, and I rolled back on the balls of my feet and wiped my mouth with the back of my hand. “The food at the country club has nothing on what I just had the pleasure of feasting on.” I licked my lips for good measure, making sure I got her off my mouth completely. Although, I happened to know she was still lingering there because I could smell her, and it was intoxicating.

“That was—”

I stood up and grinned. “Incredible. I know.”

She shrugged and pursed her lips. “I was going to say better than I thought it’d be, but if calling it incredible helps your ego, then sure, let’s go with that.”

I growled, my jaw twitching with the way she got under my skin. “Next time you might want to say the right name.”

“Oh”—she blinked—“whose name did I say?”

“God.”

She nodded. “No, I meant that.” She brought her finger to my chest and dragged her manicured nail down it. “Because a performance like that can only be best described as miraculous.”

I scrubbed a hand over my face. Remind me again why I liked her. Oh, right, I was sadistic because I actually loved her quips. In fact, my cock twitched in my pants just thinking about the way she spewed shit like that. “I would love to fuck you so hard that you have trouble walking the next morning.”

“What are you waiting for then?” Her eyes followed her hand, which went to my belt. I stopped her, though, placing a hand over hers. “Is someone shy?” she asked, frowning, a twinkle of mischief in her eyes.

I shook my head, the corners of my lips turning upward. “Nope, but I think I’ll make you wait for thereal deal.” I smirked. “That is what you called it, right?”

Jade’s mouth was wide as hell open as I turned around and left her standing there like that, grabbing my shirt first and putting it back on. Then my other crap. “You might want to close your mouth. Wouldn’t want to get a dry throat.”
