Chapter Ten
Sean stayed
with her, absorbing her shudders until they ceased to rattle her body before he
eased away from her hot pussy. He wanted to take her hard and fast, but he also
understood her need to go slow. Sliding inside her tempting pussy before he got
himself under control would guarantee she never saw him as anything but an
impulsive kid. He rose to his feet, dick still rock hard when he moved away
from her. In a desperate attempt to dampen the fire in his groin, he splashed
cool salt water on himself. It did nothing to ease his need.
Jess lifted
onto her elbow and watched him. Her bikini top framed her lovely breasts, her
shorts still clutched, though obviously forgotten, in one hand. He could not
look at her and play the grown-up at the same time. He jerked up the seat on
the Jet Ski and grabbed his backpack and the collapsible cooler. A flash of red
caught his eye. He snatched her swimsuit bottom from where it floated and
stuffed it in his pocket hiding the reminder of her naked body stretched lean
and sexy on the pink sand. She’d stolen his heart, imbedded herself in his soul
so deep he’d never survive when she walked away. The realization hit him like a
sledge hammer to his gut. How had that bit of news escaped his notice before?
She dropped
her head back against the sand with a sigh, her entire body limp.
He chuckled. “Don’t
give out on me yet.”
She opened
one eye. “What did you have in mind?”
He held up
the cooler. “A picnic. Why? What were you thinking?” He slung the backpack over
his shoulder and offered her a hand up. “Coming?”
Her fingers
settled in his palm without hesitation. “I doubt you’re as innocent as all
that, but what the hell?”
“Exactly. What
have you got to lose?”
Before she
could answer, her eyes widened and her face flushed as it dawned on her that
she wore no clothes. Realization painted her fair skin red from cheeks to waist
as she fumbled to pull her shorts on and straighten her top.
He caught her
elbow balancing her while she dressed. He yearned to toss her clothes into the
ocean, to give her no choice but to lie naked and innocent in his arms. Once
her shorts hid her delicious ass, he released her and walked further up the
secluded beach, offering her a semblance of privacy. The sand gave under his
feet. He dug a condom from his bag and tucked it in his pocket for later before
he dropped his things on ground. She strolled self-consciously toward him, hips
naturally rolling like liquid sex. Her scant clothing did nothing to dampen
desire. He thought of the new game he was working on, of budgets and time
constraints and pain in the ass producers. Nothing helped.
“Where’d the
other half of my suit go?”
He pulled the
scrap of fabric from his pocket and held it above her reach. “This?”
“I want it.”
“Again? Wow,
greedy, aren’t you?”
Her cheeks
turned a lovely shade of pink that weakened his will. “Now, Sean. I mean it.”
He handed her
the bikini bottom without further teasing then pulled her into his arms for a
kiss. She rose to her toes and welcomed his lips with a soft moan. His cock
reared back to life. He’d never convince her to think of him as a man if he
couldn’t control his dick, but thoughts of her, uninhibited and gorgeous, as
they rode to shore slashed at his restraint. His tongue urged her lips open so
he could explore her warm mouth the way he’d probed the supple enticement between
her legs.
Her tongue
rubbed against his.
Temptation
threatened self-discipline. Unable to take much more he set her away from him
holding her steady until she found her feet. “Picnic. Remember?”
He jerked a
thin beach blanket from his pack and shook it out on the sand. She caught a
corner and pulled it straight then sat and stretched her legs in the sun. “It’s
so beautiful here.”
He dropped
beside her, lying down with his hands under his neck and his legs brushing hers.
“Hungry?”
“Not yet.”
I am. He rolled to
his side and traced the strings holding her top in place. “Maybe you should get
naked and enjoy the seclusion.”
She looked
over her shoulder at him with a teasing grin. “You think so?”
“I’ll rub
lotion on your bare skin to protect you.”
She chuckled,
the sound not much beyond a whisper. “You’re so gallant.”
“Sweetheart,
you have no idea.” He loosened the tie behind her neck and the other at her
back, all the time watching her face for reluctance. He found none even as he
tugged the material loose and tossed it beside the bottom she had dropped on
the sand. “Lie back. Let me take care of you.”
When she
nodded her consent, he grabbed the bottle of sunscreen from the bag and warmed
a generous glob in his hands before swinging astride her hips. He smoothed the lotion
over her shoulders at first then down across her firm breasts.
Her nipples
rose in taut buds.
The slick
sensation of lubricated skin over skin reminded him of the brief moment of
being inside her bareback. His groin tightened with agonizing need.
Her eyes
fluttered closed. Her lips parted. “Mmm, another thing you’re good at.”
He warmed
more sunscreen, smoothing it over her ribs and flat stomach. Tiny white lines
marred the perfection of her skin below her belly button but did not detract
from her beauty. They reminded him she was a woman rather than a silly girl. If
he could convince her to love him, he’d have paradise.
“Ready to tan
everything?” Say yes. Despite the masochistic quality of wanting her
naked while vowing to behave, he craved her complete abandon.
She bit her
lip not answering yes or no.
Sean shifted
to the side, waiting.
Finally, she
lifted her hips and reached for her shorts. She never made it that far. His
fingers hooked over the elastic band, inching the material over the curves of
her butt and thighs, down toned legs, and off. His heart clenched then sent
blood surging between his legs but he refused to jump her again. Losing control
on water had been enough for one day. His hands trembled as he rubbed more lotion
between his palms and smoothed it over the rest of her unprotected front,
pausing to message it into her slender feet. “Roll over.”
She opened
one eye. “Why? The sun can’t get under me.”
“Yes, but if
you sit up or decide to lie on your stomach you’ll be safe. I don’t want you
burned.”
She raised a
questioning eyebrow. “Sure you don’t want to play with my ass?”
He laughed at
her obviously false bravado. “Never said I didn’t.” He would have sworn he
heard her moan, but it whispered too soft and ended too soon to be certain. Would
she freeze up if he insisted? “Trust me?”
“Never said I
didn’t.”
She flipped
to her front exposing her graceful back and rounded butt. He tried to think of
other things as he massaged her silky skin. He failed. His hands dug into her
ass, kneading deep and hard, before he spread her cheeks and stroked the
sunscreen into the crack to see her reaction.
She bucked
and twisted away. “Hey, none of that.”
So adorably innocent. “Just making
sure nothing gets burned.”
She rolled to
her back with a grin. “So you’re a prev. Is that what you’re telling me?”
“Nope. Are
you telling me you’re a prude?”
She laughed
and lay flat on the blanket, eyes closed, arms and legs spread slightly in the
sun. “Don’t make this about me.”
Everything’s
about her.
He intended to lie down beside her and enjoy the peaceful day, but the corners
of her mouth tilted upward. One kiss dropped on her lips to remind her of his
presence couldn’t hurt. A single kiss that went on for eternity, wearing at his
control. She smiled beneath his lips and her fingers wove into his hair tugging
him even closer.
Sean
struggled to maintain a scant distance between their bodies though he yearned
to lose himself in her. He faltered as her knee nudged his swollen cock. Desire
raged past restraint in an instant.
She nipped at
his lips before lying back with a sigh. “So are you going to find that promised
condom and do something about this situation, or are you going to play the
martyr all day?”
He pulled the
foil package from his pocket with a helpless grin. “Waiting on you.”
“Then nothing’s
stopping you.”
He closed his
eyes, drew the heated air into his lungs and prayed for restraint.
“Sean?”
So sweet and unsophisticated,
so hungry and eager. How the hell was he supposed to resist? Go slow. Give
her what she likes. He smiled at the confusion on her face and brushed a
kiss over her mouth. “Sorry, seeking a scrap of self-discipline.”
“Is that so
hard?”
“Lately, it’s
almost impossible.” He trailed his fingers down her cheek, testing the softness
of her skin as he wandered lower, over her throat, between her breasts, around
her navel, and down. His knuckles grazed the precisely trimmed triangle at the
junction of her thighs and her hips bowed upward. She bit her lip against the
need swirling in her expressive eyes. He edged his fingers lower.
She parted
her thighs in welcome. “Is this a test for you or me?”
He chuckled. “I’m
demonstrating my finesse.”
She grinned
and lifted one knee, opening herself. “In that case, take your time.”
He had to
touch her again, to taste her passion on his lips. He slid his middle finger
through her moist heat drifting over her clit and lower, separating her wet
lips for his pleasure. She groaned when he dipped inside her slit and fingered
her in short strokes. He knelt between her legs and pushed her knees to the
side while he studied her expression. She looked so vulnerable and sweet, so
ready for him.
“Let me taste.”
He didn’t wait for permission. He settled between her thighs. Her toned ass
filled his hands, and he lifted her to his hungry mouth. Her hips jerked as he licked
her. Sipping at the nectar that flowed for him. Raw heat burned through his brain.
He gently nibbled her outer lips one at a time, savoring her clean, salty
flavor. He swept his tongue over the pink flesh, delving into her cunt and
circling her tender bud.
Her legs
quivered. She dug her heels into the sand beneath the blanket, straining to
meet his intimate kiss.
The fruity,
coconut scent of sunscreen mingled with her natural, irresistible essence. He
inhaled her, drawing her in until she became a part of him. He found her shy
clit and tongued it, teasing it to beg for more, then sucked the bud into his
mouth. He sank two fingers between her folds, sliding in and out of her snug slit
with the same rhythm that he savored her clit.

Sean’s mouth
and hands sparked her nerve endings to flames. Her heart ached. Fisting her
hands in the blanket, she clung desperately to the earth. A whimper escaped as
he nipped at her. She wanted more, the feel of his heat pressing, stretching,
filling the emptiness. “I need you inside me. Now, baby. Please.”
He eased the
separation with tiny kisses before he sat back on his heels. His eyes had darkened
to rich green slate, and his broad chest rose and fell in tight gasps. Gaze
locked on hers, he tore the condom open and rolled it over his beautiful cock. He
lay down beside her and opened his arms. “Come here.”
The rough and
sexy command curled through her in molten splendor. He ignited pleasure with
the merest whisper of a touch or kiss. Self-doubt warred with desire and she
trembled afraid to welcome him, more afraid not to. She rolled to her side so
they lay face to face. He pulled her thigh over his hip, his other arm
supporting her neck. His hands explored her back and ass in sensual strokes. The
position meant she couldn’t set the pace, but his arms provided a haven in
which to let go, safe and unyielding. His hard cock nestled against her tender folds
as he snuggled her close.
“God, I need
you, Jess.” Long fingers dug almost painfully into her thigh as he speared deep
inside her pussy in a single stroke.
The rough
connection tore her breath from her. Her body embraced his, hot and hard. She wrapped
her arms around his neck and nestled her face into the warm curve between his
throat and shoulder. Strong arms held her in place as he slid in and out in long,
languid strokes. Deliberate, easy friction, the kind she normally craved, tore
at her patience. She wiggled restlessly.
He grunted.
His shoulders
and chest felt tense beneath her hands. Was he holding back? Did guys do that? She
leaned back in his arms so she could see his face. She wiggled again.
A muscle in
his jaw jumped and hunger burned in his eyes. “Damn it, woman.”
Joy and searing
desire mingled then flooded her senses in an unrelenting tide. She buried her
hands in his hair holding him captive as she kissed his full mouth. His tongue
swept over hers with far more urgency than he allowed his cock. She clung a
moment, savoring his honeyed strength, then pulled away. “Any way you want me,
baby.”
She shifted again
and a groan ripped from his throat. “Behave and let me do this your way.”
“No.” She craved
the raw passion that simmered behind his beautiful eyes, needed the barely
restrained power of his muscular form. “Show me what I’ve been missing.”
“I won’t guarantee
I can stop.”
“Who asked
for promises?”
He stared
into her eyes for a second that seemed like forever. “Positive?”
“Yes.” Nothing
had ever felt as right as that one simple word. Sean brought her pleasure with
every caress.
His wicked
grin erased every other man she’d ever known. He moved his hips, grinding deep
and fast then retreating with torturous restraint. She locked her leg over his
hip and met him on the in stroke followed on the out. His pace quickened. Tension
rose in her entire body as she embraced him.
He growled deep
in his chest before he pushed her to the blanket without separating them. The
muscles in his back rippled beneath her palms. He reared up long enough to hook
his hands behind her calves and pull her ankles over his shoulders then surged
forward. He plunged deep in a breath-stealing thrust. His muscular chest
pressed against the back of her legs, his arms protective and solid on either
side of her shoulders.
She used her
legs to align her pelvis to his, to draw him in as far as he could go.
His balls
slapped against her ass in erotic staccato. “Fuck, Jess.”
She wiggled higher,
offering him full access. He pumped his cock in and out of her wet slit, pounded
her pussy in fierce, unrelenting strokes. She could feel every ridge on his shaft,
every nerve in her body.
His fist
closed over her braid and tugged her head back so he could reach her mouth. His
potent kiss fueled the fire. She braced herself against the raw emotion
swelling her chest. Still, it pressed against her heart and throat. Fragile shields
shattered under his forceful onslaught.
His mouth
found her ear, his breath hot. “I’ve wanted you so long.” He plunged again and
again. Faster, harder with each thrust. “Don’t shut me out. Let me love you if
only for this moment.”
Blistering
desire incinerated loneliness and defensive pride. She bucked beneath him,
taking him deep, begging mercy, demanding everything but.
Sean grunted
as his mushroomed head tapped her cervix. He drove harder yet, slamming home
with nearly painful thrusts. He pulled on her hair to realign her lips to his. His
tongue invaded her mouth, stroking with delicious command as he possessed her
body and mind.
She balanced
on the precipice, afraid to fall from so high, afraid to fall for him. Her body
quivered in Sean’s arms but the final climax held her captive. Unwilling or
unable to allow blessed release, she hovered, frozen between conscious and
unconscious. Then everything exploded in a bright green rush that melted to the
color of his eyes. The intense orgasm slammed her to the ground. She convulsed,
lost on a wild, untamable ride, but Sean’s solid embrace cradled her close until
the spasms eased and her mind slowly cleared.
He allowed her
a moment to catch her breath then pushed onward. Every muscle in his powerful
body flexed as he possessed her. Intense, primitive, irrepressible, he shattered
the last of her reserve.
“Don’t stop.”
Her breath no more than sobs, she pressed closer, meeting him thrust for mind
blowing thrust. “Please, baby, let me feel you come.”
His embrace
tightened and an animalistic growl rumbled in his chest. Shudders wracked his
frame. She wrapped her arms tighter around him, reaching as far as she could,
pulling him close. His shaft pulsed and throbbed while he rode the shockwaves
of his release. A sigh of satisfaction echoed in her ear.
His head on
her shoulder, his hot body flush to hers, pure delight, undiluted and
unadorned, ripped through her leaving her content at last.
