“You got me a five-hundred-dollar scarf once,” I chided him.
“And you wore it into the lab, which was my favorite part.”
I sighed. “I can’t believe you let me do that.”
“It’s how I knew that you actually liked it.”
I rolled my eyes and let him drag me into the bedroom, where a rectangular box rested on the bed with a silky red bow on it. There was no use in arguing. I pulled the ribbon on the box and opened it. When I pushed aside the red tissue paper, I gasped and covered it up again.
“Derek, you didn’t.”
He grinned devilishly. “You don’t like it?”
I gulped and withdrew the tissue paper once more. Underneath was a few scraps of black lingerie. “Are you sure this is a gift for me?”
He kissed my neck. “I thought we could both enjoy it.”
“Devious,” I said with a shake of my head. His eyes were hungry as he looked from me to the lingerie. I pushed him away. “Well, get out of here, so I can try it on.”
He laughed, his eyes ravenous. “All right.”
As soon as he disappeared, I stripped out of my jeans and sweater, folding them up on the bed. Then, I shimmied into the lingerie. A small black G-string thong with a matching lacy bra that my breasts practically spilled out of. Plus, a black garter with dangling clips and even a set of thigh-high tights. I felt ridiculous, pulling the tights on and clipping them into place, but as I stared at myself in the full-length mirror, dragging my wild curls out of the bun on the top of my head, I could admit that the set had the desired effect. I looked like a vixen.
Derek knocked once and then peeked his head inside the bedroom. He stepped fully inside with a greedy purpose. His eyes were glazed with desire, and those pouty lips looked ready to devour me.
I turned fully to face him. “Well, do you like my present?”
“Oh yes,” he said, striding toward me. “I intend to fully unwrap you.”
I laughed as his lips crashed down on mine. Everything was on fire all at once. No hesitancy. No slowing down. Just Derek doing exactly as he’d intended. He’d wrapped me in the skimpy clothing of his desire, and it had worked out for the both of us.
Within minutes, all my hard work of getting into this contraption was for naught. Derek had it all on the floor with his face buried between my legs and his fingers in my pussy, coaxing me to the fastest orgasm of my life. He kissed his way up my body before bringing our lips together.
He drove home inside of me in one swift motion, and everything went fuzzy at the edges. I wanted this. I wanted all of this. Just him.
It had been weeks since I’d realized that I had fallen hopelessly in love with him. I’d kept that knowledge to myself. Told myself that it would be safer to wait until he said those three perfect words to me. I didn’t need to rush anything. But somehow, every day that I kept them in felt like a betrayal. Like he needed to know how I really felt. I hadn’t said them with words, but my body sure said everything I couldn’t get out.
We came together, hot and sweaty and panting. His lips trailed along my neck, jaw, and collarbone. Then he took my hand and climbed off the bed.
“Come with me,” he breathed.
I padded into the bathroom to find he’d started the water and jets. I climbed in, and he pulled me into his lap. His lips continued their mapping of my skin.
“God, you taste so good.” He pressed another kiss to my shoulder. “I can’t get enough of you.”
His hands slid down my body. First touching the planes of my stomach and then up to the crest of my breasts. He palmed one breast and then the other, taking his time in reacquainting himself with the feel of them. Pinching each nipple and making me squirm against his lap.
“You’re going to get me all turned on again,” I said in what was hardly a complaint.
“Oh?” he teased, running his tongue along the shell of my ear.
One hand moved across my stomach before reaching the apex of my legs. He maneuvered my legs on top of his and then spread me wider open. I tipped my head back onto his shoulder as his fingers found my clit once more. A groan escaped me as he worked my body into a frenzy.
“I’m going to make you come over and over tonight,” he commanded.
I shuddered at his words, and he dipped his fingers inside of me. “Oh,” I gasped.
I squirmed, nearly dislodging myself from his lap. He banded an arm around my stomach, so I couldn’t escape him. I bit my lip as he held me in place, circling his thumb around my clit as he fucked my pussy with his fingers. He nipped at my neck and drove his pelvis against mine. I could already feel the length of him hardening against my ass. Then all the sensations hit me at once, and I came to his careful ministrations.
