“I peeked into your private life, though,” I said. “I’ve already kind of started us off on the wrong foot.”
“You’ve saved me the trouble of telling you and explaining my situation, while also demeaning myself,” she disagreed. “It feels like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders.”
I’d never thought to look at it that way, but…
“You live with me,” I said. “I don’t want to do this, and then you leave.”
Because the thought of you leaving, of being anywhere but in the same space as me, feels like you’re shoving a brick through my chest. Sideways.
“I don’t want to leave,” she countered. “I want to stay. And before you try your next argument, I have no trouble mooching off of you as long as you allow me to return the favor. Allow me to do things for you the same way as you do for me.”
I swallowed hard.
“I’m probably not the best…” I lifted my hand from her hip and gestured to myself, as if that was answer enough.
And obviously, it was.
“I’m guessing you weren’t experienced at all, not too long ago.” She shrugged. “It’s been a very long time for me, too. And it’s not like I’ve had a lot of experience myself. I’ve been with three men total my entire life.”
The thought of her with other men made my blood boil.
I dropped my hands to my side and said, “You do this… you open this door with me, and we walk through? I’m not going to let you go easily.”
She tilted her head so that she could stare at me from a different perspective. Then said, “Who said I wanted you to let me go?”
CHAPTER 14
Keep it up, and you’ll be a strange smell in the backyard.
-Banger to Easton
BANGER
“Who said I wanted you to let me go?”
Those words seemed to be a trigger for Easton.
One second he was keeping his distance, and the next his mouth was on mine.
And I realized that despite his lack of experience in the ways of pleasing a woman… he could kiss just fine.
More than fine.
In fact, I’d never, not ever, had a better kiss.
And, let me be completely truthful here, kissing had never been something that I just ‘loved.’ It was always a lead-up, something that got the person that I was with warmed up, but never something that just did it for me.
But with Easton?
Kissing definitely did it for me if the state of my damp folds were anything to go by.
His tongue brushed against mine, causing my own to curl around his.
Just as I got a bit bold and pressed into his own mouth just a small fraction deeper, he gave a small lick and pulled back, only to suck on the tip of my tongue.
I swear to God, I felt it in my every cell.
My body came alive.
My pussy pulsed with need, my breasts heaved, and my nipples tightened.
My fingers closed around the fabric at his sides, and I inadvertently leaned into him enough that I could feel the hot length of his erection against my pelvis.
A delicious shiver started to slink down my spine, starting at the base of my neck and zinging so fast down the length of my back that I couldn’t stop the twist of my hips in reaction.
He pulled away, both of us panting deeply, and stared at me with worry.
“Are you…” he started, but I interrupted him.
“If you say ‘sure’ I’ll kill you,” I informed him.
His lips quirked up at the edges in a cute little smirk that let me know that that was exactly what he was about to say.
“But…” he started again, but I shook my head.
“There was a time, not long after, that I wouldn’t trust a single person. But it’s been a while now. And you’ve been in my life long enough for me to know your true character,” I told him. “You didn’t have to tell me that you knew. You could’ve allowed me to keep thinking that you were clueless, but you didn’t. And for that, I’m giving you my trust. And my body. Because that’s how this works. When you want someone… you let them have you.”
He swallowed hard, his Adam’s apple bobbing with the move.
Then he came at me with surprising intensity, wrapping his arm around my waist and pulling me in tightly to his body. His other arm went around my ass, and we were up and moving toward the door of his house.
But he cursed when he got there and couldn’t input the code.
The light blinked twice, and he growled, going to set me down.
But he’d made a fatal mistake.
He’d lifted me up, given me the feel of his hard cock against my core, and I snapped.
I moved with surprising swiftness, pushing my hands between us and shoving the zipper of his pants down in one swift push.
