He stepped back, his eyes riveted onhi at a tis I’d ever seen

The first tilorious rush Not that it hadn’t beenin its oay, I just knew that this tiht, I shook, because ere truly about tooff his briefs, I felt my breath catch Jase had the kind of body fantasies were made of Seriously Broad shoulders, a well-­defined chest, and abs I could flip quarters off of His hps were narrow, legs lean and long, and what hung between his thighs was pretty damn impressive He was fully aroused and he wantedup on the bed and only stopping once he hovered over ed, voice dark

He didn’t have to askthe the thin trail of hair until I wrapped a hand around hi his head, he groaned hoarsely as I stroked his length "Oh God"

I smiled as his chin lowered and his jaw loosened "You like that?"

"I like everything you do" He dropped a kiss to my forehead and then peppered little ones all over my face--­"

Eently as I reached the tip His hps punched into the round out, arainstto be over before it gets started and you don’t want that Trusthi a kiss to the underside of his jaw and thenthe saltiness of his skin His chest rose and fell sharply as Ihim until he moved away

I pouted "That’s not fair"

He chuckled as his breath moved down h, but first"

His tongue circled the hardened tip ofrestlessly as heit the same amount of attention Rife and powerful desire built like a fierce storm

He clasped a possessive hand around my hip as he lifted his head Features strained, he took a deep breath "I don’t think I can wait any longer I need you, Tess"

My heart flipped over "Then don’t wait"

Jase started to ease hihs, but stopped "Shit I don’t have a condom"

I placed a hand on his cheek "You know I’m on the pill and you’re the only person I’ve been with since, well, since like forever"

"I haven’t been with anyone else in a long time I’ up above me "I’ll do whatever you want"

I slid my hands over his shoulders "I want you Now"

His lips brushed overmy entrance He kissed me sweetly and so tenderly that I wanted to wrap ainsthi ht onto his arms

"So do you" I skated ht"

"Yeah," he groaned

Body tre, he sloithdrew and then rocked his hps forward, causing my toes to curl He set a slow pace that was both sweet and torturous With each deep, smooth thrust, I tilted my hps to meet his There was a seduction in the act of love, a qualitywhen the heart wasn’t involved Every shift of his hips, every kiss he bestowed, and every brush of his hands and fingers aze as weto each other The slow build went deeper than the crazy intenseness of our joining last ti insidewith every shudder that coursed through his body

But our bodies soon de him to move faster, and he did The speed of his thrusts picked up as did our breathing andbefore the headboard was hitting the wall again with the power of hoas

When my body tensed up and the coil that had forasped out "I love you"

Whatever control Jase had at that point broke as the rawness of the act took off as his hpsI ca a powerful release that spread out froht shivers that hadout his name until my voice was hoarse

He pulled out only when the last of the clix was easing through ainstthe bare skin as his hps twitched I held hi the feel of his body onwhen he lifted his head, kissing the corner of ether while our breathing returned to nor happened to ile broke inside me Like an old, rusted-­out lock finally opened
