She switched to a rocking motion that created greater friction and had him sucking in a breath. The new angle intensified the pleasurable sensations coursing through his body, and he almost lost control. It was tested even further when the first pulses of her release began. Her hips moved against his in a frantic pace, and she cried out. She dropped her head forward and froze.
Kade watched with pride and amazement as she came. Her mouth hung open a little and tremors shook her as bliss filled her face. Her orgasm ended on a high-pitched, shuddering moan that faded into heavy breathing.
“That was incredible.”
Kade kissed her and lay back on the chair. “I’m glad, but you better hang on tight. That was just the warm-up lap, now the race is on.”
He positioned Lexie where he wanted her and started thrusting, long, deep strokes that gave her a few moments to recover. But it wasn’t long before he set a blistering pace. Over and over, he drove into her, loving the little mewling cries that came from the back of her throat.
But when she leaned forward and bit his shoulder, it sent him into a frenzy. Wrapping an arm around her waist and bracing his feet on the chair, he started thrusting even faster, driving them both towards completion at breakneck speed.
“Yes, Kade! Yes, yes…”
Her words became a litany, an almost incoherent string of words as he felt her climax again. This time while she contracted around him, Kade followed her. Her voice rose in a crescendo, and he let out a loud groan as a powerful wave of ecstasy crashed down on him. He gave one last thrust as Lexie quaked against him.
Holding on to each other, they rode around the far turn and sailed across the finish line. Their mutual release was so intense that neither could speak nor move once the rapture of the moment began fading. Lexie flopped down on him, and he kissed her temple and caressed her back. They lay like that for several minutes before Lexie raised her head and stared into his eyes.
He smiled and brushed hair back from her face. “You are the most incredible woman I’ve ever known.”
The blush that stained her cheeks was endearing, because Lexie didn’t blush easily. He’d seen tons of guys compliment her, but she’d never reacted to them that way. It made him feel good to know that he affected her.
Sliding her arms around his neck, she cupped the back of his head, loving the feel of his smooth skin. “Do you have any idea what an awesome guy you are?”
His mouth quirked up in a smug smile. “Maybe a little.”
She tweaked his ear. “Stop that. I’m being serious here.”
Embracing her, he kissed her nose. “Sorry. You were saying?”
“I know there are good guys out there, but after Jason, I didn’t have any hope of ever meeting one. Then you turned up with that car and showed me that good men do exist. From the first time you took me out, you treated me with respect and kindness.” She traced the line of his strong jaw with her fingers. “You make me so happy that sometimes I feel like I’m dreaming. You’re all I could ever ask for in a man…and I love you so much.”
His eyes went wide, and his breathing came faster. “Lexie, don’t say it just because you’re lost in the euphoria of great sex.”
“Not sex, making love.” Taking his face in her hands, Lexie said, “I love you.”
Kade examined her face for a few moments. He settled his lips over hers in a slow, sweet, devastating kiss that ignited her hunger for him.
Pulling back, he smiled into her eyes. “Tell me again.”
“I love you, Kade.”
His hands started roaming over her, and Lexie wanted him with an intensity that left her feeling a little lightheaded. “I love you, too, Lex. But we really do need to talk.”
She laughed. “I don’t have the energy to talk right now.”
“It’s important.” She snuggled closer. “It’s about the cabin.”
Something in his voice alerted her, and her eyes flew open. “You went to the bank today?”
“Sort of.” With that, he moved her off him and rose, walking to pull his jeans on. “Get dressed and I’ll make us a drink. You’ll need it.”
Her heart slowed as her guts churned. Something was wrong.
She scrambled into her clothes and followed him into the kitchen. His hands were shaking. “What about my cabin?”
“When I got there, someone else had already bought it.”
Her breath choked in her throat. She wrapped her arms around herself to beat back the pain. “No. I had until five p.m.” She whirled on him. “Were you late? Did you mess this up? How could you?”
