Bare Skin (Skin Deep 5)

Chapter 13

Calland

She stayed silent, her body tense against mine, and I could feel her heart pounding against my chest.

And me? I flipped through channels like my life depended on it, waiting for her to answer my inane question about watching a movie, all the while pretending that it wasn’t taking every inch of self-control that I possessed to not strip her naked and ravage every inch of her body with my hands, tongue, teeth, and cock until she was screaming out in uncontrolled ecstasy.

But I didn’t.

And because I didn’t, I could feel her starting to relax against me, her body becoming more pliable and soft as it molded to mine. She settled against me, her arm lightly coming to rest across my stomach, her leg shifting carefully (and thank God for that) until her thigh was draped over mine, her knee resting on my other thigh.

“Um…Calland?”

I felt myself jerk as her voice startled me from my thoughts, and smiled when she giggled softly.

“Are we going to watch something or are you just gonna keep flipping through channels like crazy?” she asked, lightly.

“I, uh…what do you want to watch?” I asked her, answering her question with one of my own.

I felt her shrug, then her head shifted as she looked up at me, but I kept my face averted.

“I don’t know. But don’t you need sleep for work tomorrow?”

I turned my head slightly, and suddenly we were eye to eye, nose to nose. I could feel her breath washing lightly over my lips, and I realized that if I were to lean in, just a little, we’d be kissing.

Her eyes widened and I smiled, knowing that she’d just come to that same realization.

She gasped…it was almost silent, but I heard it. I felt it.

So I did it. I leaned in and pressed my lips to hers.

Softly.

Once…twice…and on the third time, I felt her mumble something against my mouth. Something that sounded suspiciously like, ‘Fuck it.’

Then I could only growl as she took over. She pressed her lips to mine harder, before opening and taking the kiss deeper, forcing my mouth open with her tongue, sweeping inside and stealing my breath with her wildness.

Without breaking the kiss, she slid over until she was completely on top of me, her thighs falling open on either side of mine, breasts flattened against my chest, the heat between her thighs searing the rock hard flesh straining the front of my jeans as she writhed against me.

On a low moan, she moved from my lips, placing hot, wet, open mouthed kisses down my jaw to my neck, sucking on the flesh there before sinking her teeth in and nipping sharply. It was my turn to gasp, but, as much as I didn’t want to stop this, I needed to make sure that this was really what she wanted.

I slid my hands up her arms, cupping her shoulders and lightly pushing her back. She immediately backed off, sitting up so that she was straddling me, her eyes hooded and dark with passion.

“Calland…” she breathed, running her hands over my chest and circling her hips, grinding her sex against mine.

“Fuuuuuck,” I groaned, my hips jerking up into her reflexively. “Dani, baby, wait. I just-”

She rolled her hips again, throwing her head back and letting out a breathy sigh, right before she spoke probably the hottest words I’d ever heard.

“No…I don’t want to wait. I’m not fighting it anymore. Make me feel good, Calland, please.”

I gathered her in my arms and sat up. Then, in a fluid motion, I stood. She wrapped her legs around me, burying her face in my neck, as I strode toward the hall, heading for the bedroom, flipping lights off as I went, leaving only the hall light on to see by.

But when we passed the guest room, her head came up and she asked me to wait. I stopped, letting her slide down my body until her feet touched the floor. She looked up at me and I waited…waited for the regret to come, for her to change her mind. I wouldn’t blame her, and I wouldn’t be mad. At all. Would I be jerking off in the shower in the next ten minutes, though? Hell. Yes.

But it didn’t come. She didn’t change her mind.

“I just want to check on him real quick, okay?”

I nodded, unable to reply at the moment.

I waited for her in the hallway, but I didn’t have to wait long. She was back in front of me quickly, her arms sliding around my waist as she pressed herself against me.

I looked down at her. She smiled up at me.

“Are you sure?” I asked, softly, my hand coming up to cup her cheek.

She nodded, turning her face into my hand, kissing my palm before she said, “Very sure.”

The words were scarcely out of her mouth before I had her up in my arms again, kissing her as I started moving towards the bedroom. I stumbled through the door, our mouths fused in a tongue-tangling frenzy, not stopping until I felt the edge of the bed press against my legs. I tore my lips from hers and dropped her to the mattress, intent on following her down, but she scrambled to her knees and put her hands up against my chest.

I leaned forward, trying to capture her mouth again, but she held me off, shaking her head as she looked up at me through lowered lashes, her bottom lip trapped between her teeth.

It was sexy as hell. It made my already painfully hard dick throb even more.

She ran her hands up and down my chest, circling down to my stomach, and then pushed them under the hem of my shirt. Before I could blink, she had it up and off, and her hands were on the waistband of my jeans, popping open the button and carefully sliding the zipper down.

“Dani,” I growled, reaching for her again, but she still denied me.

She slipped her hands into the waistband at my hips and pushed my jeans down, her breath hissing through her teeth as she encountered bare flesh. “Commando, hmm?” she breathed.

I couldn’t speak. Especially when she shifted from her knees so she was sitting in front of me, her hands sliding my pants to my knees as my cock sprung free, bobbing straight and painfully hard in her face. Especially when she nuzzled it, rubbing her cheek along its length before tracing her lips over it.

Especially when she closed her mouth around it, sucking me deep and then swirling her tongue around the head as she slid her lips back up, releasing me with an audible pop.

“Mmmm,” she moaned, throatily.

I let out a shaky breath as I moved my hands to her head, sliding my fingers into her silky, thick waves, where they immediately clenched as she pulled me back into her mouth. She brought her hands up, sliding them up my thighs and then running her nails back down them, making me shudder at the contrast between the sweet, hot suction of her mouth, and the biting press of her nails scoring my skin.

But when she cupped my balls in one hand, squeezing firmly but gently just as she stretched her lips wide and took me to the back of her throat, swallowing around me, I let out a hoarse yell and tugged on her hair. She released me, blinking up at me, lips wet and swollen, a question in her eyes.
