“This meal was amazing,” Jasmine gushed as she finished off the dessert course—a panna cotta sphere literally floating over a pool of mango puree.“Mal, I can’t thank you enough.Really.”
Seeing her happy was enough for him.“You’re very welcome.”
After they finished dinner, they took a taxi back to their hotel and headed up to their suite.“I’m gonna get ready.I brought a little surprise for you.”She winked at him over her shoulder as she sauntered into the bathroom.
Mal walked over to the bed and sat down on the mattress, loosening his tie and then tossing it aside.
When the door opened, Jasmine called, “Hey.”
“Hey, you’re—” He nearly swallowed his tongue at the sight of Jasmine leaning against the doorjamb, wearing a white lace bra that pushed her tits up, a skimpy pair of thong panties, and white stockings.
“Do you like it?”she asked as she approached him.
He answered by lifting her up and laying her down on the bed.“You’re so beautiful,” he whispered against her skin as he nuzzled her neck.
“Mal,” she moaned.
He wanted it to be like this forever, to just hold her and be alone with her, without a care for the outside world.His hands roamed over her lush curves and soft skin, memorizing how they felt.Catching her mouth with his, he kissed her tenderly, his lips caressing hers with an aching gentleness that pulled at his chest.
“Need you so bad.Need you.”His claws slashed at the thin straps of her thong to expose her to his touch.How he managed to unzip his pants with shaking hands, he didn’t know, especially with his cock fully swollen.He pointed the tip at her entrance, rubbing his lube all over before he thrust all the way in.She screamed his name as she raked her fingers down his back.
Despite their hurried start, Mal took his time.He moved with slow, deep movements, kissing and licking and touching, memorizing the feel and smell and taste of her, pouring his emotions into her.While he couldn’t say the words out loud, hewould tell her this way that he would do anything for her—build her a million hatching tanks, slay her a hydra, walk through fire, just to please her.He wanted to make this moment last, to burn it into his memory so that he would never forget how she tasted, felt, and smelled.How beautiful she was whenever she came around him.
“Mal!”she cried out once more, after what was probably her second or third orgasm.“I can’t.You have to ...”
“One more, ashak’a,” he urged.“One more for me.”
This time, he picked up his pace, gathering her tight against him as he bucked into her.“Such a good girl ...You can do it.Squeeze me with that pretty pussy while you come.Do it—come, Jasmine.”
She moaned against his chest, her body writhing as her inner walls spasmed around him.
The pressure became too much, all the synapses firing in his brain at the same time.“Jasmine,” he growled as he rocked into her.“I lo—” The strangled groan ripping from his throat mercifully drowned out the rest as the pressure released.
Breathing hard, he crumpled on top of her.After a moment, he rolled away and pulled her on top of him.He held her like that, enjoying the feel of her in his arms until she wiggled off.
“Sorry, need to use the bathroom,” she called out as she hopped off.
Sighing, Mal stared up at the ceiling.He had almost told her he loved her.How come even then, in the throes of passion, when he let go of everything and was at his most uninhibited, he couldn’t say the words aloud?
Grunting, he hauled himself up and swung his legs over the side of the bed.She’d looked so godsdamned sexy in that lingerie that he couldn’t even wait to get his clothes off to fuck her.He rose up to right himself, when the soft thud of his cellphone hitting the carpeted floor caught his attention.As he bent downto pick it up, he noticed the envelope icon on the top of the screen, indicating he had an email in his work mailbox.But who would be emailing him at this time of night?
He sat back down on the bed and opened the email app, every muscle in his body tensing as he read the subject line.
