She gripped his linen shirt in both hands and tugged him closer “Will you just hold me?”

“If you insist”

His ar but safe and co that she’d just indirectly asked Reece to

“Lara?” he said after several minutes

She still wasn’t relaxed and Eleanor was still outside of her perception, but she illing to let Reece hold her for as long as it took Not because she was enjoying the feel of his hard body against her or anything She really wanted to help Eleanor find happiness with Reg “Hmm?”

“I’m not sure this is the best idea”

Her heart twisted “You don’t want to make love to me?” she asked breathlessly

“Of course I want to make love to you, but if Eleanor’s been raped, wouldn’t it be better to give her ti in the sack with Reg?”

“I don’t know She wants to be with Reg You’re so good in bed, I know you’ll make it special for her”

“You think I’ood in bed?”

She didn’t have to look up at hi “I , but I’ll be relaxed, so she’ll enjoy it instead of being afraid”

Reece chuckled “You knohat I think?”

“What?”

“I think you’re using her as an excuse to get me into bed”

Lara shook her head “I can’t believe you’d think I’ this for selfish reasons I just want to help her”

“Uh-huh,” he agreed in a most sarcastic tone

She slapped his chest with the flat of her hand “Don’t make fun I think we’re supposed to help these couples”

“By having sex with each other?”

“I guess that does sound pretty stupid” She sighed “Maybe I a to make this all work out in h She really wanted Eleanor and Reg to be together Not just physically, but eht she and Reece could help them find their happily ever after a little faster

“We’re traveling through ti one fucked up relationship after another,” Reece said

She laughed and moved her arms around his back to draw him closer Her hands slid over his shirt up the solidthe texture of his naked skin “Exactly”

“We’ll try your approach and if Eleanor starts to experience emotional trauma, we’ll stop”

Lara tilted her head back to gaze up into Reece’s eyes He was genuinely concerned about Eleanor’s feelings Was it because he was sharing space with Reg? She didn’t think that hy at all Lara cupped Reece’s face in both hands She could practically see his heart azed down at her “This must’ve been why I fell in love with you”

He grinned crookedly “You just thought I was sexy”

“That’s just an added bonus” She rose up on tiptoes and clai kiss

If he’d had reservations about led in her curls, he tugged her head back and feasted on her mouth She yanked his loose, linen shirt free of his trousers and i enough to pull the shirt off over his head, but clai her upper lip with his tongue, nibbling on the lower Her hands roved the planes of his back and shoulders as she pressed against his hard chest She just wanted to touch hi of his pants, he groaned against her lips before tugging away

“Lara, you’re going to getit easy”

Lara’s hand cupped his erection through his pants “I want to touch you”

Reece fumbled wit

h his waistband and she found her hand full of thick, hot, and oh so hard, cock She stroked his length gently, her free handdown his back to ease his pants down so she could explore the flesh of that hot little ass of his She pressed her lips to his collar bone and trailed kisses down his hard chest to his nipple She gave it a playful nip and then soothed it with the flat of her tongue

“Sohty,” he murmured

“It’s your fault,” she said, kissing her way down his belly Her hand continued lower, pushing his pants down until they settled around his ankles He kicked theeous, and hard

“I could really get used to this,” she said, sinking lower as she sucked kisses around his navel and then along a sexy path of hair that pointed her toward her ultimate destination

“Me, too,” he breathed

She hesitated, her lips inches fro with fear It sure was a bad tis known

“El, if you want to stop” Reg’s voice said from above

“No,” Eleanor whispered, her heart still haet used to your body” Abbot had used his tool to cause her untold pain and humiliation Eleanor just had to reinald She proive Reg pleasure even if everymind, heart, and soul Now she just had to learn to love his body She lovedpart of him that caused her anxiety

Reg touched her hair gently and she looked up at hihtly She lowered her head and kissed the swollen end of his cock gently It twitched in her hand Her heart skipped a beat It moves?

“Take as long as you need, love,” Reg said

She trailed her fingers down the length of hiainst it, it slid slightly over the hard, thick rod beneath She traced the veins just beneath the surface of his satiny skin and then ran her thu’s breath calanced up at him, he had his head tilted back and his jaw clenched

“Reg?” Eleanor whispered, her heart thudding for a different reason now Was she touching hi him? “Are you okay?”
