“I love to read spicy romances,” she shrugs her shoulders and grins.
“You learned to do that from a book? Jesus, I was reading boring surf magazines as a teenager when I could have been reading about how to please a woman.”
She laughs. “I don’t think you need any help in that department.”
“Tell that to the girl I gave my virginity to when I lasted all of four seconds.”
“How old were you?”
“Fourteen,” I wince. “To be fair, I was always big for my age, so I looked more like sixteen. At least that’s what the seventeen-year-old girl thought when she slept with me.”
“We were fourteen and seventeen once before you turned eighteen that year. You hit Eric when he was seventeen and looked at me.”
“Yeah, I know. Because it was you, and he shouldn’t have said those things. He’s lucky that the black eye I gave him was the only thing I did.” I take her face into my hands and rub my thumbs across her cheeks. “I can’t change the past, Bell. I’ve slept with a lot of women, and I’m not going to lie about it. If this will be a problem for you, I need to know.”
She searches my eyes before shaking her head. “The past is the past. All I care about is where we are right now.”
I search her eyes, satisfied that I see the truth in them. “Me too.” I kiss her before turning off the shower. I dry her off and wrap her in a towel.
“I don’t think I’m going to need the towel.” She drops the toweland walks toward me with a fire in her eyes. She slides her hands up my chest before taking my hand and placing it between her legs. “See what you do to me? I’m so wet for you just from pleasing you.”
I moan and slide my fingers through her slick folds. Her words causing my body to react with need all over again. “I think I’ve created a sex nymph, and I absolutely love it.” She giggles as I pick her up, grabbing her ass as she throws her legs around me. I walk us to my bed and throw back the covers before laying her down gently.
I lean over her and kiss her with everything in me, wanting to give her what I should have Saturday night. Our tongues tangle together as I reach down and squeeze her breast before rubbing and pinching her nipple. She moans against my mouth as I move to her neck. I lightly bite her earlobe before licking and sucking my way down her neck and collarbone. I feel her hands in my hair as she arches her back.
I find her breast with my tongue and suck hard on her nipple while my other hand pinches and squeezes her other one. Lowering my hand, I cup her wetness and rub my palm against her swollen clit as she raises her hips to meet me. Gently pushing two fingers inside, I hear her gasp as I go deeper, hitting her sensitive spots.
“Maverick...” she rasps out.
“I know, baby, just let go. I’m here to catch you.” I increase the pace with my fingers as I start to feel her clench around me. I apply pressure to her swollen bud, and she cries out my name as I feel her pulse around me. Her orgasm takes over her body as she trembles beneath me. Sliding my fingers out, I meet her heavy-lidded stare as I suck her arousal off. “So fucking sweet,” I breathe.
Her eyes go a deep shade of blue as she watches me savor her taste. I kiss her thoroughly while her hands find my back before grabbing my ass and pulling mecloser to her. I break away before it goes any further. I need to talk to her about something, and I don’t know how she’ll react.
“I didn’t use a condom Saturday night, Bell,” I say quietly. “I’m clean, I swear. I’ve never gone without one before, but I wasn’t thinking straight with you, and I’m sorry. Whatever happens, I want you to know that I’ll always be there for you.”
She looks at me and smiles. “I’m not pregnant. Our moms took Sophia and me when we were teenagers to get us both protected. I’m glad we didn’t use a condom because I didn’t want to be separated from you even in the slightest way. I trust you that you’re clean, or I wouldn’t have slept with you.”
Relief washes over me. It’s not that the thought of her pregnant with my child doesn’t do something to me because deep down, it does, but I would like to be married first and in a home together.
“Do you want me to wear a condom now?” I murmur against her neck, praying to God she says no but wanting to give her the choice since I didn't last night.
“No,” she shakes her head with vigor. “I won’t get pregnant, and I trust you about being clean. I don’t want anything between us.”
I moan at the thought of feeling her without a barrier. “I don’t either.” I position myself and slowly enter her as I search her face for any pain. When I’m satisfied that I only see desire in those blue eyes, I fill myself completely with her heat. “You feel so fucking amazing. It’s like you were made for me. Are you okay?” I ask her when I’m fully deep inside of her.
“I’ve never been more better than I am right now,” she sighs, bringing me down to meet her lips.
I start to move inside her and moan at how tight she feels. Her body welcomes me in as I stretch her completely around me. She puts her legs around my waist and tilts her hips to meet me, going even deeper at this angle.
I grab her wrists and place them above her head, exposing her breasts to me as I feast on them one by one. She’s writhing beneath me as I torture her slowly with my teeth and tongue. I know she wants to touch me, but I love making her wait. When she’s panting and can’t take it anymore, I let go of her wrists, and she immediately rakes her fingernails down my back and digs her heels in harder, lifting her hips to meet my thrusts.
Everything about this feels different than what I’ve done in the past. I’m not just going through the motions. I’m feeling and sensing everything around me. I notice her sighs and the way her skin feels against mine. I can smell her arousal and the hint of vanilla that I love. Everything is heightened, bringing it to a whole new level.
“Maverick, please...” she rasps out. “Harder like last time.”
God, could she be any more perfect for me? I was trying to hold back because I knew this was only her second time, but I grin down at her, knowing she loved Saturday night as much as I did.
“Hang on, baby,” I say, putting my hand on the headboard in front of me to get a better hold before I start picking up my pace. I slam into her, loving the way her breasts bounce beneath me. Her eyes close as her back arches from the pleasure. I bring my finger up to those beautiful lips and press inside. She greedily sucks my finger, grazing it with her teeth. “Open your eyes, Bell. I want to see you when you cum.”
