"That's so hot," Alex mutters as he walks out the door.
"Hot damn. I need a chick like Audra," Mark starts. "Are you sure it's Derrick you want, and not me?"
Audra slaps her hand to his chest when he moves toward her, then she pushes him backward. "Out. You're not even a blip on the radar."
"I'm wounded."
"You'll get over it. Enter this house before Monday morning and I'll see to it every girl you've got lined up knows about the others," she threatens.
"Really harsh."
"Deal with it out there. Bye!" she closes the door in their faces, locks it and the deadbolt, plus the chain, then turns and leans back against it. "Your friends are a pain in the ass."
I nod, grinning, starting to laugh because, holy Jesus, she's perfect.
"Let's go, 007. Show me those moves."
"Baby, I'll show you more than moves. I'll show you paradise."
"Words. All I hear are words… more kissing and nakedness needs to be happening," she informs me.
I lean down and put her over my shoulder, she squeals then laughs as I carry her into the bedroom. I lay her on the bed, like a buffet spread before me.
"You really look fucking amazing in my bed. Now, let's get you naked."
CHAPTER SIXTEEN
Derrick
I don't pounce. I really, really want to. I've never wanted to. Before it was just excitement knowing I was going to fuck. Now it's more than excitement. It's anticipation, quiet yearning, desperate need.
Those shoes—the fuck-me pumps that have been killing me from the moment I saw her—are next. I unzip her dress completely and help her out of it. My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth when she lays there before me in nothing but black lace barely-there panties and a strapless bra. The bra must be for decoration because I can totally see her hard nipples behind the lace.
She sits up, breathing heavily. With shaking hands I haven't had since I was a teenager I reach behind her and unhook the bra, letting it fall to her lap. I don't know how many breasts I've seen in my day—too many, for sure—but hers are perfect. I reach out and run a finger around her puckered nipple.
"You're so beautiful, Audra."
She blushes, then reaches for my slacks, undoing the button then the zipper, the back of her hand brushing against my hard cock. I close my eyes and groan. She flips her hand around and cups me.
I hold her hand. "You're going to make me come just by touching me."
"But I want to touch you…" she tells me with a pout.
"Baby, you can touch me all you want after this first time. I promise."
"Again with those promises," she teases with a smirk. "We better get this show on the road so we can see if you're telling the truth after the first time."
I grin back at her. I push my pants down and step out of them. Her gaze moves to my erection and the wet spot in my boxer briefs.
"Fair is fair," I tell her.
She licks her lips and I nearly come. Later.
I lose the boxer briefs and climb next to her on the bed, pulling her up so her head rests on the pillows.
"Lift," I offer, then pull the covers back while she does. When she's laying there against the deep blue of the sheets, her cheeks flushed with arousal, I feel something settle within me. I want to see her like this every day.
That's not terrifying or anything. I'll think about that later.
