Page 60 of Seduced By You

“Yeah.” He rubbed his eyes.

“Say it with conviction.” I grinned.

“Thank God for you, Lee.” He ran his thumb over my knuckles. Back and forth, back and forth, his eyes cast down and his shoulders hunched.

The air around me shifted, and my breath caught in my throat.Kiss him.The thought echoed around my head like a ball hitting the sides of a pinball machine. I edged forward. Kadon chose that moment to cease the tender swipes of his thumb across the back of my hand. His chin came up and our eyes locked. Something shifted in his expression. I couldn’t place it. A mixture of determination, confusion, and uncertainty. I lost count of how long we stared into each other’s eyes. A second, two, a minute. An hour. Butterfly wings flapped against the walls of my chest and my stomach, and I had this sense of lightness, as if I were floating on air.

“Lee,” he rasped, his pupils dilating. In this light, they made his eyes look almost black. I held my breath, anticipating his next move. And it’d better be to kiss me.

If he kissed me, I’d dare to believe that there might be the beginnings of something special happening between us.

If he kissed me, I’d—

His lips collided with mine. I gasped at the suddenness of it, even though I’d wished and prayed for his kiss. His tongue surged between my lips, wrapping around mine, his hands delving into my hair, angling my head to his liking. This kiss wasn’t like the others we’d done for show. It was rough and tinged with a desperation I felt, too. He leaned into me. I landed on a stack of soft pillows. Kadon lay on top of me, nestling between my spread thighs. I wrapped my legs around his waist, andGod, he was hard.

I groaned into his mouth. It spurred him on. A warm hand burrowed underneath my dress. The sound of fabric tearing froze his hand in place. His lips broke away from mine.

“I think I ripped your dress.”

“Rip it again,” I whispered. “Tear it to shreds. I don’t care. Just… don’t stop.”

“Fuck, Lee.”

He took me at my word. The dress split up the side, the stitching working loose. Lust ignited inside me. I clawed at his jacket, somehow wrestling him out of it. His shirt disappeared. Trousers, too. My heart took off at a sprint, rattling my rib cage hard enough to snap the bones in two. My skin was on fire yet clammy to the touch. I feltcrazed, rabid. Animalistic.

Kadon groaned. “Christ, no panties.”

Oh, yeah.I’d forgotten I hadn’t worn underwear. They ruined the line of the dress.

“You’re killing me.”

“Don’t die yet.” I peppered his neck with kisses. “I need you.”

He stilled. Rearing back, his hazel eyes bored into me. “Do you?”

I wasn’t the shy and retiring type, but lying here with Kadon looming over me and only a thin layer of underwear between me and his cock, I came over all coy. I was fine in the moment, when our libidos were in charge and our instincts drove us forward, but pausing to ask a question had pulled me out of fantasyland and into a stark reality.

My best friend and I were about to fuck.

Heat crept up my chest and over my cheek, and even my ears felt hot. My tongue grew to twice its size. Not literally, but enough that speech was impossible, and every drop of saliva had evaporated. Gone. Vanished. I couldn’t even swallow.

“Lee?” He nuzzled my neck. “Talk to me. Tell me you want this as much as I do.”

How was this happening? Was he doing this as a way of quashing the dark cloud that had descended over us unexpectedly, or had his feelings for me changed on this trip, too, like mine had for him?

Jesus Christ. Say something.

Nope. Zero words came. I waited for him to look at me, and I nodded. That’d have to do as confirmation of consent. His gaze dropped to my mouth. I parted my lips, an invitation he accepted. Our teeth clashed, tongues fought for supremacy, hands roved and explored and touched places I’d never imagined we would. Not us. Not me and Kadon. But as the last shreds of my tattered gown landed on the floor beside the bed, exposing me to him for the very first time, therightnessof what we were doing hit me. A wrecking ball that demolished everything I’d thought up to this point and opened my eyes to something so wonderful and pure and perfect.

His lips left mine. I sucked in a deep breath, my lungs burning for oxygen I’d deprived them of. Tonguing my nipple, he brought the nub to a stiff peak. The graze of his teeth made me gasp.

“God,” I croaked.Is that the best you can do?“Don’t stop.”Better, but clichéd.

He gave each nipple equal attention, driving me to the edge of insanity. His stubble sanded my skin, but I didn’t care if I came out in a rash. I only cared that his lips and his tongue and his teeth kept doing what they were doing. I found myself on top without the memory of Kadon moving me. I settled over his cock, rocking my hips back and forth. He groaned softly, his hands clasping my hips.

“Sit on my face, Lee.”

My mouth popped open. I’d had oral sex before, but not like that. What if I suffocated him?
