“Lazy assholes.” I rise onto my elbow, placing my lips on the top of her shoulder and lightly following the path my hand just went. “They don’t know what they’re missing. The way your pussy clutches and squeezes my dick… it’s incredible.”
Her shoulder rises, and I kiss the curve of her waist before tracing my lips over her hip and rolling her onto her back.
“For instance, this right here…” I spread her thighs, putting my face directly above her pussy. “Is the quickest way to get there.”
Sliding my finger under the front of her thong, I rub the back of it up and down over her clit, watching as her eyes heat and her tongue slides out to wet her bottom lip.
“You are so fucking gorgeous when you come.” Tearing the fabric aside, I cover her with my mouth and slide my tongue over that hardened bud again and again.
“Alex!” My name is a high-pitched moan on her lips, and her back arches off the bed.
Shifting my position, I wrap my arms around her thighs, feasting on her soft skin, tugging at the hidden spot that makes her crazy.
Her body rocks, and I continue to tease her with my tongue. I put my hand between her thighs and sink my thumb into her wetness. Her body moves faster, her inner muscles beginning to spasm.
Looking up, I see the skin of her stomach tremble, and I lick her again, circling, focusing my efforts on that one place, the one that makes her…
“Oh, fuck!” She breaks with a yell, her fingers curling in my hair, her back jerking off the bed.
I don’t let up as her thighs tighten around my ears, and her wails grow more persistent. I don’t stop until she tells me she can’t take it anymore. Even then, I move my mouth to her stomach, holding her and hugging her as she shivers through the last of her orgasm.
Rising higher, I wrap her in my arms, and she tucks her face against my chest. One slim arm circles my waist, and I swear, I could hold her like this forever.
I could never let her go. I could tell her it doesn’t have to be a lie. It doesn’t have to be fake. We could make this situation real and permanent, a place we never have to leave.
Only, I forgot another thing Pop told me, a quote from a book that said, “God made the world round so we couldn’t see too far down the road.”
CHAPTER22
CASS
“Hi-YAH!” Pinky karate chops the air above her chips and salsa as we sit in the vinyl booth waiting for her dad to return with our drinks.
El Rio is the only restaurant in Eureka, and our special dinner is a reward for Pinky going a whole day without karate-chopping anyone in town.
She’s been watchingThe Muppet Shownonstop since our fishing trip, and she’s obsessed with her new favorite character Miss Piggy, which means she’s been acting just like her.
Owen immediately declared if she karate chops him one time, he’s pushing her down. Aiden told him boys don’t push girls down, but I’m not convinced he won’t do it. Pinky doesn’t seem to be convinced either.
So far, she hasn’t tried chopping her cousin or his friends. Yet.
“Here you go.” Alex places a frozen margarita in front of me. “A lemonade for Miss Piglet, and a Modelo for me.”
“Miss Piggy, Daddy! Piglet is Mr. Piglet.”
“Ah, Mr. Stone, you don’t have to serve yourself.” Herve Garcia hustles up to the table, smiling. “Who is your waiter tonight?”
He looks all around, and when a young woman in an apron appears, he says something to her in Spanish.
Alex holds up a hand. “No worries, Herve, it’s all good. I’m used to slinging drinks.”
“Can I get you anything?” The girl’s name tag says Gina, and I don’t recognize her.
She must be new in town—a situation I still remember in a town where everyone seems to know everyone.
“I know what I want if you do?” My voice is light, and I meet Alex’s eyes across the table.
“Steak tacos and street corn all around?” he asks.
