She placed her hands on her hips. “Well? Aren’t you going to undress?”
“You’re incredible. You know that?”
“I know.” Her laughter pealed across the ruins. “Come on. I feel silly being the only one naked. Or would you like me to undress you?”
He shot her a cocky grin. “Would you? Since it’s my birthday and all?”
With a toss of her hair, she sashayed over to him. Her nimble fingers quickly unbuttoned his shirt and tossed it aside. After running her hands along his bare chest, she placed soft kisses on his neck and shoulders. He groaned, torn between enjoying the buildup and wanting to plunder her gorgeous body.
She kissed the hollow of his throat. “I need to be on top. I know it’s your birthday, but I want to be in control.”
If he wasn’t already as hard as a rock, her request would have pushed him over the edge. “Whatever you want, princess.”
She unbuckled his shorts and pulled them down around his ankles. He kicked them to the side and stripped off his boxers. Then he was as naked as she was, in a temple dedicated to the goddess of sexual love. He pulled her closer, pressing his bare skin against hers, and captured her mouth with a passionate kiss. Her tongue tangled with his, tasting of chocolate.
When she pulled away, her breathing was ragged, her voice husky. “Lie down.”
He eased himself onto the blanket and lay on his back. Even with the cloth beneath him to serve as padding, the stone was hard and chilly. But once Olivia straddled him, his body heated up, the warmth rushing through him like an inferno. When she leaned forward, her full breasts close enough to touch, he tweaked her nipples, eliciting little gasps out of her. He pulled her closer until she was caging his body and licked slow circles around each taut bud. She moaned with pleasure, her voice carrying across the quiet site. Her noisy, passionate response made him ache with need, but he wanted to make tonight last.
He reached between her legs and dipped a finger into her slick, wet folds, seeking out her sweet spot until she gasped again.
“Yes,” she murmured. “Like that. Please.”
She moved her hips as he stroked her, her breath coming faster. Seeing her caught up in ecstasy turned him on even more. He was desperate to bury himself deep inside her, but he wanted to satisfy her first. She tightened her grip on his shoulders and arched her back. As her body shuddered atop his, she cried out his name in abandon, like she didn’t care who heard them, even the goddess Aphrodite herself.
She pushed her messy curls from her face and let out a rush of air. “Ohhh. That felt so good.”
He grinned at her. “Want me to do it again?” Even if he was craving a little release, he loved watching her come.
A saucy smile crossed her lips. “This time, I want you inside me.” Reaching for the condom, she tore at the foil and took it out. “May I?”
“Yes, please.”
She sheathed him slowly after taking her time to stroke him first. Then she guided him inside of her, angling her hips until she’d settled on the perfect position. “Is that good?”
“The best.” For a moment, he kept still, gazing up at her in a mixture of lust and admiration.
And then she was moving against him, thrusting her hips in a steady rhythm. He grabbed her ass and pulled her even deeper, losing himself in the feel of her. She leaned closer and kissed him fiercely, her tongue dancing against his. As the pressure built up inside of him, he was close to exploding, but he stayed in control, wanting Olivia to come first.
His entire body tensed up as she flung her head back and cried out again. With a groan, he gave into sensation, shuddering as he came inside of her. The powerful orgasm rushed through him, so intense it almost made him light-headed, the sheer bliss more incredible than anything he could remember.
She collapsed on top of him, still breathing heavily. “Oh…wow. That was unbelievable.”
He stroked her hair, not wanting to break the connection between them. When she finally eased off him and lay down at his side, he brought her closer, cradling her in his arms.
She let out a contented sigh. “Best ritual sacrifice ever.”
“I agree. Aphrodite would be pleased at how well we used her temple.”
“You think she was watching over us the whole time?”
“With Aphrodite, you never know,” he said softly. “But I’d like to think so.”
