“I do not want to be on top.” She rolled off him and onto her back. “Help me learn what I like.”
A slow smile rose to his lips. “Any particular place you want me to start?”
“Any place you want.”
His smile grew into a full-fledged grin. “Challenge accepted.” This was going to be fun.

A startled gasp escaped Sakura as Nick slid off the bed and pulled her rear near the edge. His large hands enveloped one foot, massaging each of her toes. Then he lifted her foot to his mouth and ran his tongue along her arch. A shower of tingles ran up her leg and—surprisingly—took up residence in her nether regions.
“You like that?” Nick asked.
More than she’d ever thought possible, but her mouth suddenly couldn’t form the words so she nodded her head.
His grin turned wicked. “I thought so.” He lifted her other foot and repeated the process. Then he kissed, nibbled and sucked his way up her legs—gradually drawing them apart with his strong hands—until he stopped at her apex. He just stared intently at her, not moving, not blinking. Heat rose to her cheeks. Was shethatugly down there that he could not go on?
She moved her hands to cover herself, but Nick grasped them gently. “Don’t.” He set her hands at her sides one at a time. “Put this one here, and the other one here. Good. Now, if you like this, just hang onto the sheet. And make as much noise as you want, it’ll make me feel…appreciated.”
He knelt on the floor and spread her nether lips with his fingers, a hungry gleam in his eyes. Oh, god, was he going to…? The warmth of his breath fanned over her mound and a shiver ran through her as his tongue and teeth closed over her clit, teasing and nipping. Electric chills chased over her skin. Never in her life had she imagined anything so delicious. There was nothing in her experience she could compare it to.
“You like?” The vibration of Nick’s voice against her clit brought on another wave thrills, and her fingers dug into the mattress. All she could do was puff out a breath and nod.
“Tell me if this is better,” he said.
His hands slipped under her bottom and he raised her up. With the touch of tongue circling her nub, the world exploded with sweet sensations. She arched her hips upward, seeking something more, as her hands curled into the sheets. It was like being on a precipice waiting for the perfect moment to jump. Anticipation tightened her body until Nick sucked her into his mouth. Freefall consumed her, but instead of riding air currents she clung to waves of intense pleasure and gratification. There was no beginning, no end, just Nick wreaking glorious havoc on her body.
“Saku?”
She forced her heavy eyelids to open. Nick had shifted them fully onto the bed so that his body covered hers. He held his weight up with his arms, the soft, heated velvet of his erection lay against her inner thigh. This was different from when Kenji had used her. It was…right. Safe. “Can we do that again?”
Nick’s deep chuckle vibrated through her, and her inner muscles contracted in a weak imitation of the orgasm that had rocked her world just moments ago. “Anything you want, my Saku. How about a different way this time?”
She reached up and skimmed her fingertips over his chest. “I want to have that again anyway I can.”
His gaze seemed to intensify, and he lowered his body more until his lips brushed hers. “You got it.”
He traced his open mouth down her neck, across her collarbone, the side of her breast before claiming her nipple. A moan welled out of her throat as she pushed upward to encourage him as he split his time lavishing each breast. That sweet tension was winding up again, searching for that one thing to set it loose.
Breathless, she squeezed her eyes shut. All these incredible sensations to savor, yet some deep instinct called out for more. “Please, Nick.”
The head of his arousal touched her opening. “Eyes on me, love.”
She met his gaze as he pushed forward, slowly entering her. He was watching for something. Maybe some sign of rejection, or distress, but that was not going to happen. She planted a foot on the bed and leveraged up to take him deeper.
A shout of victory welled up in her chest. “Yes!”
Nick’s eyes shut and he groaned, head lowering until their foreheads gently touched. “God, Saku.”
“I am okay, Nick.” She had not expected to be the one reassuring him tonight. “Take me there again. Please.”
He opened his eyes, snaring her gaze as he pushed deep. There was no turning back now, for either of them. He stroked her with his length, back and forth, a little harder and a little faster each time. The exquisite coil of tension built at her core.
“Saku.” The raw sexual edge in his voice was the trigger. She squeezed her eyes shut and met his thrusts, one foot caressing up the small of his back while the other pushed into the mattress for the best angle. This exquisite pressure could not get any better. Nick thrust just so, and she catapulted over the edge and into space. Above her, Nick stiffened with a harsh cry, pouring himself into her.
Life seemed to fade away. It was only her and Nick, intimately joined and sated. The warmth of his body covering her was her security. Something stroked her cheek and she dragged her eyelids open.
“How do you feel?” Nick asked.
She reached up and swept a wayward strand of hair off his forehead, then gave him a smile. “I finally remember what it is like to be okay.”
