I picked up my phone only to see another missed call from Lark. He had texted me late last night to let me know he was home. I knew it was shitty of me to ignore his calls today, but I couldn’t shake the hurt feeling I had when he blew me off the night before last. I had felt so used after he just brushed me off.
I closed my eyes and thought back to the dance we had together at the wedding.
I’m not sure if I can be what you want me to be.
I felt a tear run down my cheek. I knew what I was getting myself into with Lark. The idea of him meeting up with another girl had my stomach turning. I knew h
e said he wouldn’t do that, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that he was hiding something from me.
I thought back to my conversation with Jessie earlier this morning.
“Azurdee, I think it’s because you know he is so secretive about his job. You’re reading too much into it. Just take a step back. It’s Lark we’re talking about. The boy did not do commitment ever, so don’t push him.”
“I’m not pushing him. At least I don’t think I am. What do I do?” I asked as a sob escaped my lips.
“Sweetheart, just take it a day at a time and don’t expect too much from him all at once. I think with Lark it’s going to have to be baby steps.”
I slammed my hands down on my sofa and let out a not-so-ladylike sound. I needed to go for a run or something to clear my head. I made my way into my room and changed into a pair of sweats and a T-shirt.
My phone began ringing again and I looked to see it was Lark calling again. I hit reject and decided I would call him after my run when my head was clearer.
I walked into the kitchen and set my phone on the counter and then grabbed a cold water bottle out of the fridge.
I stuck my keys in my pocket and made my way to the door. I opened the door and let out a small scream. Lark was standing there.
How? When?
I sucked in a breath of air and asked, “How did you know where I lived? I mean…what are you doing here?”
“Why are you ignoring my calls?” he asked as he stood there with sunglasses on looking hot as hell. The heat from his body was making it hard for me to think straight.
What did Jessie say? One day at a time.
“Well, after your reaction to me on the phone the other day, I thought maybe you needed some time.”
He tilted his head and looked at me. “Time for what?”
I looked down at his lips as he licked them. Oh God. I want his lips on my body. I wanted them to give me another mind-blowing orgasm.
“I don’t know. Time to think. I thought maybe you were having second thoughts about us… I mean…this.”
He took a step closer to me, causing me to take a few steps back into my house. “I’ve been calling you all day and you haven’t answered. It seems to me you’re the one who needed time.”
I swallowed hard and took in a long slow breath. I slowly shook my head and said, “No. I just…I don’t want to push you or make you think that…that...” My mouth dropped open slightly as I watched him pull his T-shirt up and over his head as he walked in and shut my front door. I kept walking backwards until I hit the sofa, my eyes fixed on his massive built chest.
“You have no idea how much I missed you. How much I’ve been dreaming about being inside you. Yes, Azurdee, that scares the shit out of me, but I don’t want to end what we’ve started. I want you so damn much it almost hurts.”
Lark removed his sunglasses and began unbuttoning his pants as I smiled and looked up into his eyes, and that’s when I noticed it. I put my hand up to my mouth and said, “Oh my God. Your eye!”
He stopped and didn’t move. I looked at his eye, which had a huge cut above it. The entire area around his right eye was black and blue. My heart instantly hurt knowing that he had hurt himself.
“What in the world happened?”
He smiled again and said, “I was hiking and slipped on some rocks and fell.” He continued to take off his pants. The daylight streaming into my front windows allowed me to see his body perfectly. I noticed he had a small round scar on his right side. Why didn’t I notice that the other night?
When he dropped his pants, his erection sprung free and my stomach dropped. I began licking my lips.
“Do you like what you see, Azurdee?” he whispered.
I swallowed hard and nodded my head. Unable to talk, I just kept staring at him. I couldn’t believe that thing was inside me. He was now standing in front of me completely naked.
He placed his hands on the sides of my face and lifted my face so that I was looking directly into his beautiful green eyes. “I’m so sorry I hurt you the other night. I didn’t mean to, I just…I got spooked. I’m not used to feeling like this, and it scares the shit out of me. The last thing I ever want to do is hurt you. When you weren’t answering your phone, I was scared to death I had pushed you away. I can’t lose you, mi amor. I won’t lose you.”
I bit down on my lower lip, trying to keep my tears at bay. His voice was almost pleading.
I said in almost a whisper, “I’m sorry I wasn’t answering my phone.”
He leaned down and brushed his lips against mine as he let out a low growl. “God you drive me insane with want, Azurdee. I need to be inside you so badly. Please let me make love to you.”
Oh. My. God. I think I’ve died and gone to heaven.
I wanted to quickly strip out of my clothes and tell him to have his way with me, but I had a feeling he needed this to be slow, intimate, and sweet.
I reached for the bottom of my T-shirt and began to pull it over my head. Lark dropped his hands from my face and took a step back. I pulled my sports bra over my head next, and watched as Lark licked his lips. His eyes were moving over my body quickly and I knew he was trying like hell to keep his hands off of me. I decided to use it to my advantage.
I removed both my sneakers and then slowly slid my pants down. I removed them and kicked them off to the side. The only thing I had on now was a pair of light pink lace panties. When I looked up at his face, his mouth was open slightly and I could see his breathing was increasing. I loved that my body could pull such a reaction out of him. Especially since I knew Lark had been with many women before me, but I was pretty sure I was the only one who could evoke this type of passion from him.
At least I hoped so.
“You’re so damn beautiful. I’ve never seen anyone so beautiful before in my life.”
The butterflies went off in my stomach and I wanted to throw myself at him and beg him to fuck me fast and hard, but I took a deep breath and decided I was going to be brave. Something about Lark brought out the naughty in me and I was really beginning to like it.
I slowly slipped my hand into my panties as Lark whispered, “Oh God.”
I smiled slightly and then let out a gasp as I brushed against my clit and slipped two fingers into my still sore body. I was soaking wet. What would he do if I said how wet I was?
“Oh God…I’m so wet…”
The next thing I knew my hand was being pulled out of panties and they were ripped off my body. Lark grabbed me and set me down onto the sofa as he pushed my legs apart and one quick lick of his tongue across my clit had me pushing my hands through his hair and whispering to him how good it felt.
“Lark…oh God…that feels…ahh…”
He pushed two fingers inside of me and I bucked off the sofa and began calling out his name as he massaged out the orgasm. That has to be one of my favorite ways to come now.
He pulled his face back and smiled. “I love the taste of you. There is nothing sweeter in this world.”
I bit down on my lower lip as he stood up and quickly grabbed himself and stroked his dick a few times. I was shocked at how much it turned me on to see him touch himself like that. I wanted to watch him make himself come so badly.
He reached down and pulled me up into a standing position and then picked me up. He looked around and said, “Where is your bedroom, mi amor?”
“Turn right down the hall, last door on the left,” I said with a raspy voice. I couldn’t believe how much I wanted him. Even after he had just given me such an amazing orgasm, I needed to feel him inside me. I wanted to feel him moving in and out of me and be completely and utterly lost in him.
Lark walked me into my bedroom and I noticed he looked around quickly. I loved my bedroom. The walls were a light silver blue and my wrought iron king-sized bed looked amazing against the color.
I had a small reading nook in one corner and a fireplace in the other. It had been my dream bedroom and when I had the house remodeled, the fire
place was the first thing I had put in. It was cozy and romantic.
Lark walked over to my bed and gently laid me down. “Move up and put your hands above your head, Azurdee.”
Something about the tone of his voice when he talked to me like this pushed me almost over the edge. I swore sometimes I could come just from the way he talked to me.
I put my hands above my head and took a deep breath in. “Hold onto the bed frame and don’t let it go, or I’ll stop making love to you.”
I nodded my head. “Okay.”
He smiled that smile that wreaked havoc on my heart. When I felt his tip teasing my entrance I instinctively put my hands on him and he stopped.
“Azurdee, your hands.” I quickly grabbed onto the wrought iron bed again and let out a moan as he placed two fingers inside of me and massaged me almost to the brink of an orgasm.
“How sore are you?” he asked as he looked into my eyes.
“I was more sore yesterday but all I feel now is a pulsing need for you.”
The way the left corner of his mouth lifted in a smile caused me to smile. I loved his smile and would do anything to make him smile every single moment of my life.
“I like that answer.” He pulled his fingers out and placed himself right at my entrance.
“Your pussy is always so ready for me,” he whispered against my lips.
“Yes,” I whispered. The way he talked so dirty to me drove me beyond insane.
“Do not let go of the bed frame. Do you understand?”
I nodded my head frantically. I just needed to feel him inside me. I pushed my hips up some just to feel him.
He pulled back some and said, “Repeat it, Azurdee.”
I shook my head, I could hardly think straight. Not being able to touch him and the way he talked to me had me practically panting with need. “I...I won’t…let go. Lark, please!”
He smiled at me as he slowly pushed himself into me. I could feel my body stretching to accommodate him. The burning was mixed with pleasure and I let out a long moan at the same time Lark did.
“Fuck, I’ve missed you,” he hissed between his teeth as he pulled out some and slowly pushed back into me.
