Trying to Score (Assassins)

by Toni Aleo

  When he reached the bedroom, he threw her down on his bed. His eyes held her gaze as he undid his shorts, letting them fall to the ground as his full throbbing erection was released. Fallon’s eyes went wide at the sight of him as he came towards her, moving her legs apart before moving between them. He ran his tongue up her body from her belly to her neck before pressing his hard length against her dripping wet slit. She was so wet, so hot, that Lucas couldn’t think straight. It had been so long since he had been with her, and if she was anything the way she was back then, he was done for. He bit his lip before looking down at her face.

  Man, she was so beautiful.

  Fallon’s face was flushed, her hair was all over the place, and her lips were parted as she arched her back, rubbing her juicy center against his hot engorged flesh. He moved in, running his tongue along her lips and down her jaw before biting and sucking on her neck. He hoped he didn’t scratch her too badly with his hair-roughened skin, but he didn’t think she minded too much since she was basically rubbing her body against his like a cat in heat. When he brought his lips back up to hers, she bit into his lip causing him to let out a groan of his own. She moved her naughty lips against his lips, then down his jaw, running her tongue along the hair that lined it. When she reached his neck, his eyes slowly shut as she sucked ever so lightly on him. His hands shook against her skin as she bit along his shoulders. When his mouth found hers again, he knew he had to be in her.

  Lucas leaned back on his haunches, looking down at her naked body before sliding a finger inside her. Her eyes went wide before they shut slowly, her back arching as he moved his fingers in and out of her. He loved how hot she was and couldn’t wait until his flesh was in hers. He moved his fingers in and out of her a few more times before he moved them, slamming into her with something bigger and better. Her eyes went wide as she let out a loud cry of satisfaction.

  “God, yes!” she yelled as he continued to slam into her. He would have liked to go slow, soft even, but he couldn’t. He had waited too long. He was too fucking gone to even try to slow it down. “Harder!”

  “Oh, God, yes,” Lucas panted as he continued to pounding into her in a fierce need.

  He was almost there, and when she arched her hips, meeting each of his thrusts, he knew it wouldn’t be much longer, but then she screamed, “Stop!”

  So he did as he looked down at her with wide eyes. “What?!”

  “Condom!”

  “No, I don’t have any!” he yelled, his erection pulsating inside of her. Her body was clenching his and he knew that she was just as ready to come as he was.

  “Ah! You’re clean right?!”

  “Oh my God, Fallon, really?”

  “Eek! I’m nervous!”

  “Don’t be, I’m clean. You are too, right?”

  She glared as she pursed those beautiful, sexy lips at him. “Yes!”

  “Okay, we’re good,” he said with a smile. She smiled back before he started to move again, but then he stopped. As much as he wanted another little Aiden, he wanted to make sure he and Fallon were married first, so he asked, “Birth control?”

  “Yeah,” she nodded, bringing her legs into her arms. The view was delectable, and Lucas couldn’t stop himself for moving into her hard. She gasped as his fingers bit into her hip, slamming into her with a fierceness he didn’t realize was in him. With every slam of his body against hers, she met his thrust, screaming his name. The sexual chemistry was undeniable between them. She made him just as hot as he made her and with one final slamming thrust, Lucas came. He came long and hard, with a loud, long groan as she writhed underneath him. Fallon’s body continued to clench his swollen flesh as he fell unto her, breathing against her hot skin. Lucas took in a deep breath before rolling off her, and looking up at the ceiling.

  “It won’t happen again,” Lucas said between breaths.

  He felt her eyes on him as she said, “What?”

  “I will never listen to another rap song with Aiden in the car, I promise.”

  “Thank you.”

  “Anytime. Or maybe I should, if this is the way I get punished,” he gave her his cocky smirk and she smacked his thigh as she giggled.

  “This was not a punishment, the slap across your face was,” she corrected.

  He laughed long and hard before he looked over at her.

  “So what was this?”

  She smiled as she shrugged her shoulders. “Bound to happen?”

  He chuckled as he looked back up at the ceiling. “I couldn’t agree with you more, baby girl.”

  ***********************************

  Fallon watched Lucas close his eyes as his breathing slowed some. When she felt his pinkie come around hers, she took in a sharp breath as he slowly fell asleep. It was crazy how everything could be the same between them, when everything was so different. Here she was lying in bed with him like he hadn’t broken her heart or that she hadn’t kept his son from him. It was as if the last seven years never happened and all that mattered was them.

  Fallon looked up at the ceiling as he tightened the grip on her pinkie and her heart soared. She felt so good, so thoroughly satisfied. Lucas was one hell of a lover, especially when he put that tongue of his to work. She could come at just the thought of it on her, it was that good. She loved his body, his hands, even his beard along her neck, and oh God, his teeth. The man was a dream, but even still in her sex-filled haze, all she could think was what the hell was she going to do now that she had slept with him?

  Fallon had said many times that she would never sleep with him again, that it was a bad idea because she would become addicted again and she had! She wanted to straddle him and have her turn at him, but she knew she couldn’t. She couldn’t do it again; she had to get out of there.

  And she would.

  As soon as she got feeling in her legs again.

  Fallon closed her eyes as she turned, snuggling her nose into his arm. She would let herself enjoy his warm body tonight but it would end tomorrow. She still didn’t trust him, and until she did, she couldn’t do this again. No matter how much she wanted it. So tomorrow, she would leave. Tomorrow, she would live as if she hadn’t just had the best sex of her life. She had to, or she would move right into his bed and never leave. She looked down into his beautiful sleeping face, and her heart broke.

  “Why did you cheat on me?” she whispered. She didn’t expect him to answer, but she needed to ask. Just for herself, because come morning, she would be gone.

  When Fallon’s eyes opened the sun was just coming up. She glanced over at her bedmate to see that he was close to her, his mouth parted slightly. She licked her lips at the sight of his sexy mouth. She loved how his lips were thin and sweet looking. She loved the little scar along the side of his bottom lip that only she knew was there. No one else could see it since he always kept his beard so long, but she was there the day he got that scar. He was chasing her down the beach and she whipped around to see if he was close, and he was. He was a little too close and her hand that wore the beautiful ring he had gotten her smacked against the side of his mouth, cutting it opened. Fallon smiled at the thought. She had felt so bad, but he didn’t even pay it no mind. He attacked her, throwing her against the sand, where he promptly got her naked and made sweet, glorious love to her.

  Fallon’s heart ached as she forced herself to look away and take in a deep breath. She missed those days, those sweet moments they shared. Everything was so much easier then. Fallon reached up and placed her lips softly on his nose. She had to get out of there before he woke up. How she was going to do that was beyond her. All her clothes laid in a ripped up mess beside the front door, not that she minded. She couldn’t even try to get those clothes off if she had tried last night. Lucas had gotten her in such a state of lust that actually doing something worth a damn was pointless. She was putty in his hands.

  She rolled over and only made it an inch before Lucas’ strong arms came around her waist, pulling against his broad chest. She
took in a sharp breath and it blew her mind that all it took was a single touch from him to make all the hair along her arms stand up.

  One touch. Just one.

  “Where do you think you are going?” he asked in a low, seductive whispered. Fallon’s eyes fell shut at the velvet softness of his voice. She swore she could come to just the sound of his voice. Hell, anything he did could make her come! Lucas moved his nose into her hair, taking in her scent as his hands moved down her body. He slid his hand between her legs, cupping her lightly and Fallon swore forming words, or even thoughts, wasn’t going to happen. “Huh? Where you going?”

  Fallon shook her head, her eyes closed shut as he slowly moved his fingers, feather soft, along her mound. “I gotta go, Luc, you know I do.”

  She took in a quick breath; she hadn’t called him that in years. It felt so right. He shook his head against her shoulder before biting it softly. “I don’t know that at all. I know that I need you again.”

  Oh, she needed him too. But she had to stay strong!

  “I can’t. I gotta get home. Aiden is there.”

  Lucas ran his teeth along her neck to her ear, where he bit her lobe softly before playing with it with his tongue. “Don’t leave yet, Fal. Please,” he whispered so softly and so quietly. “We have so much that we need to discuss, so much we need to learn about each other. I have to tell you stuff. Please. ”

  She couldn’t do it, she had to leave or she never would. She would forever want to stay in Lucas Brooks’ bed if she didn’t get out of there right now. It didn’t matter what he needed to tell her, or what they needed to discuss. Things weren’t safe when they were in bed with each other, or touching. They both couldn’t think right.

  “Lucas, I can’t,” she whispered as she tried to move away. He wasn’t letting her move though. She felt him shake his head before he moved a finger inside her. She gasped at the invasion but didn’t stop him. She wanted it as much as he did.

  “Yes, you can. Audrey can watch Aiden,” he whispered against her neck, “I can’t let you go yet. I can’t. Give me one more day. Just one. Please.”

  Her heart skipped a beat at his tenderness, or maybe it was the way he was moving his rough finger around her budding clit. “Luc,” she gasped again before he started to move his finger faster causing her to whimper and lift her hips into his hand, wanting more.

  “Come on baby, come for me,” he whispered his breathing labored like hers. It didn’t take long before Fallon came undone under his skillful fingers. The man and his hands were lethal on and off the ice. She had no chance.

  As she caught her breath, his breathy chuckle filled her ear. “That’s my girl.”

  Uh! No, she couldn’t be his girl. Not yet at least! She needed to leave, needed to get on the first plane out, but when he turned her, wrapping her up in his arms and connected their mouths in a hot delicious kiss, leaving was the last thing on her mind.

  Getting hot morning sex was more like it.

  Fallon slowly crawled on top of him, straddling his growing erection. Lucas looked up at her through lust-filled eyes as she guided his long, throbbing dick inside her. They both groaned at the feel of being connected in the most fulfilling way. She started to move up and down on him in an unconscious rhythm. It had been so long since she had been on top but she was moving like a pro, and the way his eyes kept drifting shut as his hands bit into her hips, she knew she was doing it right.

  Lucas must have not been able to handle it because he flipped them over, him on top, and drove into her. As he slammed his body into her, she couldn’t have felt more fulfilled. With each thrust it took her breath away, but it was fantastic. Lucas slid his hand behind her neck, bringing her up for a long lavish kiss just as she reached her climax. Her body shook from the welcomed bliss as Lucas started to pound harder, wanting his own release. When he reached it, lightning bolts of fulfillment went off around them as Fallon let out a cry louder than his hiss of breath through his teeth.

  Lucas fell off to the side of her, his hand gripping hers as they both tried to control their breathing. “Fallon?”

  Fallon took in a deep breath, her body aching in such a glorious way, she felt like she might cry. “Yeah?” she answered.

  “You aren’t going anywhere, baby.”

  Fallon nodded. “Yeah, I know.”

  Lucas laughed as a large grin went over Fallon’s face. There was no way she could leave, not yet. Even though she said she didn’t want to know, she did. She wanted to know what he needed to tell her and she hoped it was about why he cheated. She wanted to know everything. Maybe she had done something wrong, maybe something would explain why. She wanted to move on and she just wanted to trust him. She wanted to continue being thoroughly loved by him.

  Because she still loved him.

  **********************************

  Fallon was going to stay.

  Thank God.

  There was so much that needed to be said. So much Lucas needed to explain, maybe then she would trust him and maybe even love him again.

  Lucas gathered Fallon in his arms, kissing her temple. “I gotta leave tomorrow though.”

  He nodded, kissing her again before running his nose into her hair. “I know.”

  “Okay, I gotta call Audrey.”

  “Later, I want to hold you some more,” he whispered as she snuggled closer to him. He had stayed up all night, trying to make sure she didn’t leave. Every time she moved, his eyes would dart open and he would watch what she was doing. He had forgotten how much she moved in her sleep, but he didn’t mind it. She looked so innocent, so sweet when she slept, and he couldn’t get enough of her beautiful hot body against his. He had stayed rock hard the whole night. It was like a dream come true having her in his arms again. The only thing that sucked was when her sweet sleepy voice asked:

  Why did you cheat on me?

  His heart still ached at the fact that he wasn’t man enough to open his eyes and tell her. Was it the fact that he was scared she would think he was a failure? Or maybe because he was scared she would leave him again. All he knew was that he needed her, and that he loved her more than a man should love a woman. His arms came around her tighter, wishing he didn’t have let her go again as she smiled against his chest.

  “I have no clue what I’m gonna wear,” she said. A proud satisfied smile came over Lucas’ face. The thought of hearing and seeing that fabric rip still made the hairs on the back of his neck stand.

  Man, it was hot.

  “I’m pretty sure there is something here for you to wear,” he said quietly as he snuggled closer to her. He had taken her box home, but he was pretty sure there was a drawer of her clothes somewhere. She had practically lived with him when they were dating. The only time she went home was when he was on the road. When she left, she left almost everything.

  “Audrey packed me a bag, but I doubt she packed much,” she said with a shrug.

  “We’ll go out and get some stuff if you need it.”

  “Okay,” she nodded.

  Nothing was said as the sun continued to rise and filled the room with its beautiful rays of sunshine. Lucas felt like it was the start of his life, and he couldn’t wait to see what the day held. He just hoped it was everything he had prayed for.

  “I’m sticky,” Fallon said out of nowhere. Lucas couldn’t contain the gut-busting laugh he let out. She couldn’t either and soon joined in with him as they slowly detangled from each other.

  “I don’t know if I shut the door last night,” Lucas laughed as he pulled his shorts up. He looked over at Fallon, his eyes admiring her gloriously, beautiful, naked body while she giggled at the bed that was in shambles. They sure did do a number on that bed, he thought as his eyes raked her body. He took in her full breasts that were bigger than he remembered. The way her tummy had little marks on them from where his son had grown and stretched her out. Along her ribs was the tattoo that Aiden had told him about, and he wondered what it said. When he looked up, Fallon was st
aring at him. “What does your tattoo say?”

  Fallon looked down at her ribs, and smiled before looking up at Lucas. “For those I love, I will sacrifice. Then I have Aiden and Audrey along the inside of my arms,” she said showing him the inside of her arms. Heat filled him from head to toe as his eyes followed the words along her body. He moved around the bed, coming towards her before wrapping her up in his arms. Her perky warm breast collided against his hard chest as he grinned down at her, lust filling his eyes.

  “Do you know how hot it makes me that you have ink on you?” he asked as he nipped at her bottom lip.

  Fallon smiled as she ran her hands up his muscular arms. “I think I might have an idea,” she teased as she pushed her naked pelvis into his. Lucas’ control snapped and he picked her up, laying her back on the bed.

  “Yeah, that shower is going to have to wait,” he said against her mouth.

  She smiled as her hands reached down, letting him out of his shorts. “I thought you might say that.”

  Chapter 26

  Fallon was still lying in bed when Lucas brought her bag to her. He grinned down at her before throwing her phone beside her. “Audrey has called a couple times.”

  Fallon smiled sweetly up at him before stretching her arms above her head. Lucas watched her for a moment and then shook his head before heading to the bathroom. She knew she had rocked his world a little before he left the bed and she couldn’t help the satisfied grin that graced her face. She rolled over her stomach, seeing the missed calls and texts from Audrey. Instead of reading them, she just called her.

  “Um, yeah? Are you alive?!”

  Fallon giggled. “Yes, sorry I haven’t called.”

  Audrey started laughing and Fallon rolled her eyes. “Oh goodness, do I even want to ask?”

  “I mean, if you are wondering if we have been having crazy monkey sex ever since I slapped him across the face, then yeah you may want to ask.”

  That had both women in a fit of giggles. “Listen to you! Oh me, this is wonderful!”

  Fallon felt wonderful. “Yeah, I’m staying tonight. I’ll look for a flight tomorrow,” she said nervously. She still couldn’t believe she was doing this, but she had to or she would forever ask why.
