Page 122 of Playing With Secrets
“I know that now.” She leans forward and gives me a quick peck. “Every time I’m with you, I want it more. We’ve been through so much.”
“Too much for two people.” I take a deep breath as all the terrible things that have happened to us fly across the screen of my mind. “It’s our turn for some happiness.”
“I think so.” She beams. “We’ve loved each other from a distance for years. Our connection has always been in the back of my mind. If it’s been as powerful for you as it has been for me, then you’ll know why I want this now. We deserve our chance together.”
She studies my face. After a moment, she brings her thumb to her mouth. She chews on her nail as her browscome together. I laugh under my breath and pull her hand away from her lips.
“Dori, you don’t need to be concerned about me going cold on you. I won’t anymore.”
“But what about what I did to you?”
“After you came to my office and apologized, I started thinking. I can’t fault you for trying to escape your pain. I wish it would’ve been me who you leaned on, but Aiden was here and your emotions were high.” I blink, trying to forget that night happened.
“I’m sorry, Jami. It’s probably one of the most horrible things I’ve ever done. The fact it was to you breaks my heart.” Her head lowers, hiding her shame.
I lift her chin and gaze into her eyes. “Look, I don’t want us to hold grudges and stay stuck in the past.”
“Are you sure you can forgive me?”
“Yeah. Let’s just focus on getting things back on stable ground.” My stomach churns.
She might leave and never look back after I tell her everything. I need to explain my situation to her, but she’s going to be hurt that I didn’t share this with her. It’s enough to make me queasy.
She shifts toward me, giving me an easy distraction. I can’t say no to her. I take her into an embrace and give her a tender kiss. She needs to know how deeply I love her.
Her breathing kicks up as my heart accelerates. She pushes me back and climbs on top of me, slides her palm up my shirt, and rubs my chest.
I want this woman more than I’ve wanted any other. As she caresses me, her shirt rides up and our stomachs touch.
Her skin against mine is magical. Our chemistry ignites. I shift to flip her over, but she stops me.
“Not this time, Jami.”
I still myself. “You’re right. We should talk first.”
“That’s not what I meant.” Her eyes sparkle into mine. “I owe you from last night.”
She reaches down beneath my gray sweatpants and strokes me as I grow harder by the second. If I don’t do something to stop her, I won’t be able to control myself.
“Dori, I think it’s important for us to discuss everything before we move forward.”
She guides herself over my stomach and positions herself between my thighs.
“I’m going to take care of you first. Then we can have as many conversations as you want.” She squeezes my shaft, moving the elastic band of my pants down.
My cock springs out from the material. There’s no hiding it. I want this.
I swallow hard and try to make a wise decision. “Dori?—”
“No. I want to do this.” With that, she takes the crown of my cock into her mouth.
“Fuck.” I push my head against the cushion and close my eyes. “That feels too good.”
She hums like she’s telling me to enjoy it. The vibration causes me to become as hard as a rock. I give in and let her continue.
She licks around the tip and moans. It’s such a turn-on. I thrust into her mouth as I place my hand on the back of her head.
“Just like that.” I groan with desire flowing from my veins. I bring my lusty stare to her.
