“Okay. If you say so.” Ashton pushed the button on the elevator and off we went to our first official night out.
The restaurant was even better than I expected. The ambience was amazing, and so was the food.
The waiter brought us a bottle of wine—a ‘07 Alfred Gratien Cuvee Paradis from France, which cost $230 a bottle. After our glasses were filled, I leaned in close to whisper to Ashton, “You really are breaking the bank for this date, aren’t you?”
When his fingertips grazed along my jawline, I nearly melted in my chair. “I want to show you how much I appreciate and care for you.” His lips barely touched my ear. “Baby.”
The way the term of endearment made my stomach flip gave me all kinds of ideas about things to come.
This night is going to be a dream!
The appetizer arrived and my eyes went wide as saucers as I looked at the marvelous creation that was set before us. Named Three Shells, it consisted of a variety of chilled shellfish. Fresh abalone was garnished with citrus, soy, and lime. Kumamoto oysters were covered in cucumber champagne mignonette. Then Taylor Bay scallop ceviche was mixed with sea bean, tomato, and coriander.
Ashton fed me a tiny bite of each. He had no idea the effect he was having on me as he placed the food in my mouth. “It’s fantastic.”
I picked up a tiny fork and stabbed a scallop, then fed it to him. He moaned as he chewed it. “You’re right, it is amazing.”
The appetizer alone was enough, but there was more to come.
The main courses were just as decadent. He had black sea bass that had been sautéed with lobster brown butter. It was served with grilled artichoke ravioli and fresh artichoke.
I had poached Nova Scotia lobster. It came with sweet and sour butternut squash risotto, Trumpet Royale mushrooms, and even brussels sprout leaves.
“This meal is so impressive.” I finished off the last bite, cleaning my plate.
He looked at the empty plate with a smile on his face. “I’m impressed too. And now for dessert.”
The only thing I wanted for dessert was him.
But he’d already ordered, it seemed. Our waiter came and cleared our plates as the dessert was delivered by a very proud dessert chef. “Our famous Chocolate Brooklyn Bridge. It’s made with milk chocolate Marquise, raspberry sorbet, vanilla ice cream, crisp meringue, and topped with a dark chocolate glaze.”
“It’s gorgeous,” I remarked. “I’m sure it tastes as good as it looks too.”
The chef nodded, then left us to enjoy the decadent treat.
Ashton spoon-fed me once more. I gave him bites too, and it was obvious by the glow on his cheeks that he was getting as turned on as I was.
Picking up his napkin, he ran it over my lips. “Some extra chocolate got away from you.” Then his lips touched the spot right next to mine, and I nearly turned to capture his lips.
I didn’t though. The longing I felt wouldn’t have been satisfied in a public place. My only hope was that Ashton wasn’t going to keep me waiting much longer for that kiss I’d dreamt of for the last two years.
The ride home was quiet. He held my hand, his thumb moving back and forth across the top of mine. My insides were liquid. My thighs quivered with desire.
The spa had rid me of every last bit of body hair, and I was damn glad of that. I prayed that Ashton would kiss every last inch of me with slow, burning kisses.
And even as I thought about what I wanted him to do to me, I still had no idea if he had any plans to do such a thing.
I didn’t want to push him. But my God, how I wanted him to take me like he owned me.
When the car pulled up in front of my apartment building, I broke out into a sweat. I crossed my fingers by my side. “You’re coming up, right?”
He nodded as the driver came to open the door for us to get out. “I don’t want you walking up to your apartment alone, baby.”
My heart sped up as he called me baby again. I loved hearing him call me that. I wanted to hear him say it many more times—I wanted to hear him whisper it in my ear as he took me.
Even as we headed up to my place, I still wasn’t sure if he would be coming in with me. He had just said he didn’t want me to walk alone, was all.
When the elevator doors opened and we headed to my door, I felt my knees going weak. My body was shaking with desire.
He has to come inside with me!
I knew better than to ask him, but I prayed he would ask me if he could.
He held his hand out for my key then opened the door for me. “You’re such a gentleman, Ashton.”
I saw his Adam’s apple bob in his throat as he gulped. “I’m glad you think so.” He pulled me into the dark living room but stayed just inside the door.
I could feel my heart pounding in my chest as he put his hands on my shoulders, then moved them to my back to pull me to him. It was so dark, I couldn’t see his eyes. But I could feel the energy that flowed between us.
He moved so slowly that I began to wonder if he really was going to do it. But when his lips touched mine, holding me so tightly in his arms, I fell apart. My nails bit into his biceps as I held him back. Then he pushed his tongue through my lips to tangle with mine.
Fireworks went off inside of my head and I lost myself in him in a way I’d had no idea was possible.
Chapter Twenty
Ashton
One kiss just wasn’t going to do it for me. Not with her in my arms, finally. With her mouth giving in to mine. With her bedroom only feet away. I wasn’t going to deny myself any longer.
I couldn’t, even if I had wanted to.
Our hands moved like fire over each other, learning each other’s bodies. Somehow, I did have the presence of mind to close and lock the door before she led me to her bedroom.
I wanted to go slow; I really did. But our bodies took over. Her hands pushed and pulled at my clothes and mine did the same to her. All she had left on was the jewelry I had given her. And it looked like sparkling magic as the dim light hit the gold and the diamonds.
Pushing her onto the bed, my mouth ached to kiss every part of her. I started at the bottom, at her little pink toes, and then moved up until my mouth was at her glistening cunt.
When I looked up at her, I found her biting her lip so hard I was afraid she would draw blood if I didn’t do something about it. So I kissed her pussy lips, and she made a terrible moan as she arched up. “Yes! God, Yes!”
My fingers dug into the flesh of her creamy thighs as I ran my tongue up and down her hot folds. “Baby ... Baby, you taste so good.”
Her hands ran through my hair as I kissed and licked her. My cock was pulsing—it wanted to be inside of her so badly. And when she pulled me up, panting as she said, “Ashton, please, baby. I want you inside of me. Please,” well I couldn’t resist the urge any longer.
I moved up her body, loving the way our skin felt as my body glided over hers. She pulled her knees up as I settled between her legs.
Grasping her face with one hand so she was looking into my eyes, I used my free one to guide my cock into her. The way her eyes closed as I entered her made my heart sore. “Yes,” came her soft word. Her hands gripped my arms tightly. “Oh, God, yes.”
“Baby,” I murmured as I moved slow and easy, taking in the way her pussy felt around my cock. It had been so damn long. But never had I felt anything like this.
It was meant to be. I knew that without a doubt now.
My head went light, and my body took over. Moving in and out of her sweet cunt, I knew I was home.
It wasn’t sex. It was so much more than that. I saw stars; I felt waves flowing through me. It wasn’t normal. It was beyond my wildest imagination.
When I kissed my way up her neck, then along her cheek, I felt wetness there. She’d been crying. “Are you okay?” I whispered against her cheek.
Her hands moved up to hold my face between them. “I’m so much more than just okay, Ashton. You have no idea how good I am.”
I
was glad to hear that. “Good. I am too. This is right. I can feel it. I was wrong to wait so long.”
“Never mind that.” She pulled me to kiss her then released my lips. “All that matters is that we have each other now.”
I had to agree. “That is all that matters.” Kissing my way to her ear, I bit her earlobe, then whispered, “I love you.”
With a moan, she said, “I love you, too.”
With our verbal release came a burst of energy.
She loves me!
I moved faster and harder, taking her body and making her understand that she belonged to me. No one else could ever make her feel the way I could.
Panting and moaning, she moved faster too. Her nails gouged into my back as she rocked her body with mine.
The lovemaking had turned into something else. Our bodies demanded more. I slammed my cock into her, feeling it go even deeper into her. Then I pulled out and turned her over. I wanted to go deeper, and by the way she backed up to me as she got on her hands and knees, I knew she wanted that too.
Grabbing her by the waist, I held her as I slammed back into her. “Yes!” she cried out.
Slapping her ass, I plunged into her over and over with a savage force. This wasn’t like me. I had never been this kind of lover. I always tended toward soft and sweet. This was new to me.
But it was a new thing that I liked very much.
Nina brought out things in me I’d had no idea were hidden inside.
The first ripple of her cunt around my cock told me her climax was near, and when her body clamped down on me, I was helpless. I spurted my load into her as we both screamed with the release.
She fell on the bed, and I fell right on top of her as we tried to regain our breath. Thinking I might be squishing her, I rolled off to one side. She immediately came to lie on my chest, kissing it as she mumbled, “I love you so much.”
My heart actually hurt, I felt so much love for her. I put my arm around her shoulders then kissed the top of her head. “Me too, baby. Me too.”
Pulling her head up after we could breathe normally again, she looked at me. “Wanna take a shower with me? I have to wash this makeup off. I never sleep in it.”
“Hell, yes, I do.” I got out of bed then picked her up, carrying her naked body across the room.
“Ashton, I have roommates. We can’t go out there naked.” She jerked her head toward the closet. “Let’s grab a couple of robes. Mine isn’t going to fit you very well, but it’s better than nothing.”
As I put her down and waited for her to get us something to put on, I thought about this setup she had at her apartment. And I knew it wasn’t going to work out for me.
But it was too soon to ask her for more just yet.
The robe was constricting, to say the least. But it covered enough of me to make me somewhat decent for our stroll to the one bathroom they all shared.
After closing the door and locking it, I pulled the robe off and watched her as she dropped hers.
My cock sprang to life, and I nearly tackled her as she stood with her back to me and started the shower. “Ashton!”
Biting her neck, I lifted her in my arms. “Oh, baby, this shower is going to be fun.”
I climbed into the tub with her, then pressed her body against the wall. Pulling her legs up, I had her wrap them around me then I pushed my hard cock back into her.
The way her nails trailed up and down my back made me hot and crazy for her. I couldn’t get enough. I finally had her, and it seemed I wasn’t about to let her get a wink of sleep.
The warm water ran over us as I fucked her like she was the only woman in the world. She turned me into some kind of a voracious beast who had to have her any way I could get her.
When her nails curled into my back, I got ready for the feeling of her cunt throbbing around my dick. Already, I knew the signs of her body, and when she came, I came too.
We growled and moaned as my cum filled her. My cock throbbed and jerked, sending more cum into her.
And as that settled down, my brain began to work. “Um, I didn’t ask this. I wasn’t thinking straight, obviously. Are you on any kind of birth control?”
She laughed. “The shot. No reason to be afraid.”
“I’m not afraid.” I kissed the side of her neck before letting her down. “Just wondering. If you got knocked up, I wouldn’t have one problem with that.”
She looked at me with a very serious look in her eyes. “You sure about that?”
I nodded, then picked up the bottle of honeysuckle scented shampoo. “I thought you used this scent. And yeah, I’m sure about what I said. Now that I have you, I have no intentions of ever letting you go, just so you know. And so you know this too, you are officially off the market.”
“Oh, am I?” she asked with a giggle.
I poured some shampoo into my palm then lathered it into her hair. “You are. No more men for you, my sweet thing. Only me from now on.”
“Well, aren’t you sure of yourself,” she said with a smile, then winked at me. “But you have every right to be. And just so you know, you’re off the market now too.”
“I’ve been off the market.” I moved her head back to rinse her hair.
When I pulled her head back up, I saw her eyes were glistening. “Is this really happening, Ashton?”
With a kiss to her swollen lips, I let her know it was real. “I love you, Nina Kramer. I think I have for a long time now.”
She sighed then laid her head on my chest. “Me too.”
Internally, I began to berate myself for waiting so damn long. I had been a fool. But then she ran her hands up my arms, as if sensing what I was doing. “The time was finally right. I’m glad we waited. Really knowing you, learning more about you as your friend before anything else, that makes this special.”
Laughing, I had to say, “Girl, you really can read my mind.” I kissed her again, loving the fact that I could kiss her whenever I wanted to now.
She pulled away from me as I pawed at her. “I need to wash your hair now.”
Being almost a foot taller than her, I gave her a quizzical look. “And just how are you going to do that, may I ask?”
She turned off the shower and put the plug into the bottom of the tub. “In the bath, of course.”
We settled into the tub, me in front of her. She made me lean back on her plump tits as she washed my hair. I had never felt so comfortable. The way her hands moved over me soothed me in a way I didn’t know was possible.
“I could get used to this, baby.”
She ran her soapy hands over my chest. “Me too.”
Taking her hand, I pulled it up and kissed it. Then I turned around and pulled her legs down. “I can’t seem to keep this cock of mine from getting hard.”
“Lucky me,” she said with a grin.
“I don’t know how we’re going get along at work.” I pushed my cock into her tight pussy again.
“We’ll just have to be discreet.” She moved her legs to accommodate me.
The thought of her bent over my desk in my office sprang into my mind again. “And quiet, too.” I moved with slow thrusts, so we didn’t make too much of a mess with the water.
Already plans had begun to hatch in my head. The future lay in front of us. And it looked bright.
Chapter Twenty-One
Nina
My eyelids were heavy as I began to wake up. A leg was thrown over mine; an arm lay on my side. And warm breath moved steadily across the back of my neck.
It’s real!
The night before had been so fantastic that I was sure it had to have been a dream. But feeling Ashton lying behind me, holding me, that wasn’t a dream at all.
This is real!
I didn’t open my eyes. I lay perfectly still, loving every second of the way it felt. His skin touching mine, his body against my back, even the way he breathed captivated me.
I could live like this forever.
In bed, with Ashton wrapped around
me, that was a place I never wanted to leave. And I wouldn’t have, either, except for the fact that my bladder was full and it was beginning to get uncomfortable.
Easing his arm off me, then his leg, I sat up, rubbing my eyes with the back of my hand. When I stood up, I found my body aching in the best possible way. Stiff and sore, I made my way to the bathroom, making sure to grab a robe to cover myself before I left my bedroom.
In the bathroom mirror, I found my hair a mess, but my face had a glow about it. “Man, he sure has done a number on you, sis.” My cheeks were red from his whiskers, my lips swollen from his kisses.
When I sat on the toilet, I saw that the insides of my thighs were also red, again from his whiskered cheeks. A smile curved my lips. But it went away just as quickly when I felt the burning sensation as I peed. “Ow!”
But the smile crept back as I recalled just why that burn was there, and suddenly I didn’t mind the pain at all. Sure, my body hurt all over, but that was because of the strenuous workout Ashton had given me. An immensely pleasurable workout.
After washing my face, brushing my teeth, taming my hair, and dousing myself with a bit of lavender body spray, I felt fit to get back to bed. Cuddling with Ashton sounded like heaven to me.
When I got back into my room, I found Ashton sitting up. His eyes were on me. “I missed you.”
“I wasn’t gone but a few minutes.” I pulled the robe off, tossing it to the side. Strolling over to him, I added an extra sway to my step, flaunting my body.
His hands met my hips, holding me still. “Let me look at you.” His lips pressed against my stomach, then he ran his tongue around my belly button.
It sent chills through me. I ran my hands through his blond waves, which had fallen out of the man-bun he’d had it in during the night. Now it was loose, and I wanted nothing more than to tangle my hands in it.
Just as I was falling into the abyss that was Ashton, a loud bang came on the wall. Then muffled voices came through it, cursing and laughing. “That’s Sandy’s room.”
The sound of not one, but two male voices laughing had Ashton looking at me with one raised brow. “She’s got two boyfriends?”
