“Keep doing that and I’m not going to last much longer.”

“Better fuck me then,” she said, her hand leaving my cock to pinch her nipple.

With a groan, I lost the last of my self-control. She squealed as I flipped her over, bringing her onto her hands and knees. She moaned as I entered her with two fingers, curling them as I pumped them in and out of her.

Leigh’s moans grew louder, her pussy clenching around my fingers as she moved with me. She cried out as she came around my fingers, her inner walls pulsing.

I grabbed a fistful of her hair and pulled her head back. “Is this okay?”

“Hurry up and get your cock inside of me,” she said, wiggling her ass at me.

I smacked her ass, a red mark appearing. She moaned, pushing her hips toward me. I lined up my cock with her entrance, pushing into her from behind. Leigh was quick to push back into me, trying to take me as deep as possible. She arched her back, leaning forward to change the angle.

With a groan, I rocked my hips, pushing my cock into her before withdrawing it. I took my time, stroking in and out of her, drawing out more moans. The sound of her pleasure turned me on and I wanted more.

Fucking her was the hottest thing I’ve felt in a long time.

And it made me wild with lust.

I moved faster, meeting her thrust for thrust. She cried out as I fucked her hard. I stopped briefly to turn her over. I wanted to see her face as she came apart on my cock.

I plunged into her again, watching her eyes go wide and then close as she felt my cock stretching her pussy. Her breasts bounced and jiggled inches from me. I spared one hand to worship them, flicking and playing with her nipples, as my other hand firmly gripped her ass.

She put her arms around my neck, pressing her breasts into my chest as she bucked her hips in rhythm to my fucking. I pounded into her with a primal urgency as she pushed me closer to my own release.

She arched her back and cried out as she fell apart on my cock. My release was not far behind her own. I moaned at the tightening sensation of her pussy as she rode out her orgasm. Her breathing came in shallow gasps and her nails dug into my back.

The pain was erotic.

I bit out a cry as my cock pumped inside her, filling her up. She gasped and moaned, her pussy tight around my pulsating cock, milking every drop.

She fell forward into my chest, her energy spent as our orgasms started to fade. I lifted her chin and her eyes were glazed over when she looked into mine. I kissed her deeply before I pulled out of her and stood.

“You’re beautiful.” I held out my hand to help her up.

She took it and smiled.

We went to the bathroom for a warm cloth to clean up.

By the time we were back in bed, there was a soft smile on her face, her eyelids heavy as she nestled into the pillows. I curled up beside her, looping one arm around her waist and pulling her close.

In that moment, I could imagine spending every night falling asleep beside her.

LEIGH

Iwokeupthenext morning to the sound of my phone ringing. With a groan, I got to my feet and stumbled around the house, trying to remember where it had ended up after Clarke pulled me away from it last night. I stretched as I wandered around, the soreness in my muscles a pleasant reminder of the night before.

The ringing ended moments before I found the phone. As I was about to check the notifications, it started ringing again. My mom’s picture appeared on the screen. A lump rose to my throat, my heart hammering in my chest as I answered the call.

“Hi, Mom,” I said, trying to talk without sounding like I was being choked with emotion. There was nothing that said her call would be bad news, even if the little voice in the back of my mind was telling me otherwise.

“Hi, Leigh. How are you doing? Is it still raining up there? Do you think they’re going to fix the road soon?”

I laughed, walking to the kitchen window, and staring out at the yard. Rain was still pouring down and flooding the backyard.

“It’s raining still. The hole in the house is huge but there’s no rain getting in. I’m fine. Tired, but I think that I finally have a direction for the art gallery and once I get back to the city, I should have some good leads lined up. I think I’m going to start emailing artists today and seeing if they would like to work on pieces for the grand opening.”
