The whole package made her endlessly fascinating. Add in the warrior steel under her porcelain skin, and I was so damn sunk.
The sun was streaming through the window, making her hair look like fire. Goddamn, she was so beautiful.
Leaning over, I flicked the button open and whipped off her jeans. They were loose and well worn enough that I didn’t have to struggle for what I was looking for. I wasn’t disappointed to find matching Batman cotton panties.
I nibbled my way along her yard of leg before I knelt on the floor at the bottom of my king-sized bed. I pulled her forward for a repeat taste of what I’d sampled last night.
The truck had been madness and darkness. I’d felt my way around to find exactly what she needed. Now this was for me.
Sunlight slashed across her skin from my blinds, letting me see every inch, every curve, and every freckle on her water-soft skin.
I hooked her knee over my shoulder and licked her inner thigh.
“Lucky.” Her voice was sharp with hesitation. I knew there as a difference between the reckless comfort of yesterday and a sun-filled today. But I wanted to show her that both were okay between us.
Both would be amazing.
I tucked my hands under her ass and lifted her hips to roll off her panties. Instead of letting her think things through—which was always dangerous with this woman—I widened her legs with my shoulders and sent her into a tailspin.
No part of her went unexplored. I wanted her taste and scent buzzing in my head. Her hips lifted so she could undulate against my tongue. I followed her lead, finding the correct combination to her lock. This lock anyway. Her heart was a much more fortified area.
But here, we were compatible in every way.
I pushed up her shirt to flip her bra up and out of the way. She arched off the bed as I held on through each buck and twist. My Ruby liked a rough hand sometimes, and today that seemed to be where we were headed.
I wanted to keep it light. To hear that husky laugh as I made her come. But as always, the desperation set in. My entire goal was to hear her crash and burn in my arms.
I drew one hand between her legs to stroke her lightly with my thumb as my tongue circled her hard clit. My beard was abrading her skin, but it only seemed to enhance her tension.
She was as tight as the strings on my guitar, vibrating on the knife’s edge of pleasure. I held her there, held back until her fingers fisted in my hair.
She lifted my head and our eyes locked. Hers were near black with temper. “I’m going to kill you.”
I laughed against her soaked slit then twisted my hand to thrust two fingers into her swollen pussy. She clamped down on my fingers, and her surprised cry nearly shook the windows.
Hearing her say my name so urgently made me stone hard. I’d tucked my own needs into a box as I focused on her, but now there was nothing but my lust fueling me as I stood and bent her knees toward her chest.
Her thighs shook and her lids dipped to half mast as her chest heaved for oxygen.
“Fuck, you are so damn beautiful.”
She reached her arms above her head in a feline stretch, her skin pink where I’d pinched her nipples and scraped at her skin with my rough hands.
Then she grabbed two fistfuls of my my hair and dragged me over her.
“Ruby, I’m too heavy.”
Instead of arguing with me, she rolled me over and straddled me, ripping at my zipper. “While I enjoyed the one-sided trip to O-Town, I’d really like to go for another round. You up to it?”
That smile I’d been looking for hit me like a punch. Sly and drunk on her own power, she curled her fingers into my boxers to draw out my cock. “There we are.” Her touch was one pulse point away from too tight.
My hips lifted in reaction. Most women were too gentle, thinking we were as fragile as their sweet softness. I let out a tortured growl as she licked her palm and stroked me hard.
“Tell me your Boy Scout tendencies are intact here in your bedroom.” She flipped off her shirt and finally reached behind herself to unsnap her bra.
My hands went right to her tits as if they were a siren’s call. Her head fell back for a moment as I caressed and cupped her.
“Distracting me,” she moaned.
