A four-poster bed took up most of the space in the room, its dark stained wood an exact match to the dresser and side tables that were crammed in around it. He carried her to the bed and set her down so she was perched on the edge. “You’re soaking wet and so am I. Do you want a hot shower first to warm up?”
Kelly shook her head and stood up so that she was standing right in front of him. Very deliberately she reached up and began unbuttoning his shirt, letting her fingers stroke each bit of skin as she bared it. “I think we should get out of these wet clothes.”
“Brilliant idea.”
She finished with his shirt and he had it off in seconds, revealing a broad chest with the perfect amount of dark hair dusted across it. He somehow looked even bigger with his shirt off, and Kelly splayed her hands across his muscular torso, measuring the distance for herself. His skin was hot under her palms and when she stroked her fingers through the crisp curls of his chest hair she could have sworn the temperature jumped a few degrees.
He found the hem of her skirt, raising it up an inch at a time, as his fingertips drew patterns of desire up the sides of her thighs. When he touched the lace of her panties he paused, kissing her deeply as she continued to explore his bared flesh. Her fingers reached the clasp on his pants and she undid it in a rush, the bulge behind his fly tempting her to hurry.
He was big, that much she could tell already. When she slipped her hand behind the warm silk of his boxer-briefs, he groaned into her mouth as she wrapped her fingers around his thick shaft. Ben bucked his hips lightly, pushing his cock into her hand. His eagerness was a match for hers, and Kelly wasn’t surprised when he whisked her dress over her head in one quick move, forcing her to release him, however briefly.
His hands moved to her bra as she grasped his cock with one hand and eased his pants over his hips with the other. She wanted him naked. Now.
“You are fucking breathtaking, baby. I’m so happy you’re here with me,” he whispered into her ear as he helped her shrug out of her bra. The moment her breasts were free he gathered them in his hands and stroked every sensitive inch.
His touch was making her pussy wet and her nerves sing. She swept the pad of her thumb over the tip of his cock, spreading the lubricating drops of precum she found there so that the entire head was moist and slick. His dick jumped in her hand in response, and his calloused fingers pinched her nipples just sharply enough to make her moan.
Another kiss nearly melted her panties and she could feel they were soaked with more than rainwater now. He had her on the verge of going up in flames with just a few deft touches and some incredible kisses.
He let go of her just long enough to toe off his shoes and shed his pants. She watched him strip in fascination, shivering just a little in the cool air of the air-conditioned space. He was bigger than even her most daring fantasies. Powerful shoulders, strong biceps, and ridged abs. He was one very well put together package. Her gaze drifted to his cock and she couldn’t help but smile. She’d been right, he was big. “You’re not the only one who is happy right now,” she said.
“Glad to hear it, baby.” He reached for her and then cursed as they both heard the sound of nails on hardwood. “Not tonight, buddy. Tonight the bedroom is humans only.” Ben turned around and shooed Chase out, giving Kelly a chance to ogle his ass. She was still enjoying the view when he turned around to face her and caught her staring. Instead of commenting, he just grinned and crossed back over to where she stood, completely unconcerned by his nudity.
“One of us is still wearing clothes,” he pointed out, sliding his fingers beneath the lace sides of her panties and moved them over her hips. He dropped to his knees as he pushed them down her calves, pressing a kiss to her navel before letting his tongue swipe several slow, lazy circles around her belly button. When he finally got her panties to her ankles, she stepped out of them, letting him see her for the first time.
She fought the urge to cover herself with her hands when his gaze traveled the length of her body and back again. She knew her body wasn’t perfect, but the way he was looking at her helped to banish the last concerns from her mind. He was staring at her as if she was the most beautiful woman in creation, and it melted Kelly’s heart. Without a word she stroked her fingers into his wet hair and bowed over him to press a kiss to the top of his head.
“Mine,” he muttered, the single syllable so softly she barely heard it. Before she could react, he buried his face between her thighs, his hands coaxing her legs wider as he nuzzled against her slick curls. Hot breath fanned over her wet skin, his mouth nuzzling against her outer lips.
Feeling off balance, Kelly reached for the corner post of the bed, needing the support. She sank down onto the edge of the mattress and Ben growled in approval. He dropped his shoulders one at a time as he coaxed her legs wider, working his shoulders between her knees until she was completely open before him. “Lie back and let me taste you, baby.”
The moment Kelly stretched out on the bed, Ben had her legs draped over his shoulders and his mouth on her pussy. His tongue danced in tiny circles around her swollen clit, coming achingly close before moving away again. “Ben, please!” she heard herself begging, but he just chuckled, the vibrations adding another level to her pleasurable torment.
Again and again he tasted and teased, never quite giving her enough stimulation to let her find her release. Kelly’s pulse was thundering as if she’d just run a race and her fingers were curled into the quilt, kneading at it in time to the flicking of Ben’s tongue. She pressed down on his shoulders, using him to lever her hips off the bed in a silent demand for more.
This time he rewarded her by sucking her clit into the heat of his mouth, holding it carefully between his teeth. He lashed at the tender nub until she was hovering on the edge of an orgasm as fierce and wild as the storm still raging outside. That was when he plunged two fingers inside her, pushing her past her limits.
She came on a cry, her body arching high off the bed as every cell of her body was saturated with pleasure. The feeling was so intense that she lost herself for a time, only drifting back to the here and now when she felt Ben moving.
“Kelly?” he spoke her name in hushed tones. The bed dipped as he lay down beside her, tugging her limp body into his arms.
She opened her eyes and smiled when she saw his handsome face looking down at her. “Hello, sexy.”
He leaned in to kiss her, one hand threading into her hair as the other stroked down her back to cup her ass. “I think watching you come is my new favorite thing in all the world. You are gorgeous when you let yourself go like that.”
“Want to see it again?” She waggled her brows at him, laughing as he grinned and nodded eagerly.
“Hell yes I want to see that again, and again, and again. I told you, baby, once I got you upstairs you were staying here all night. I have plans for you, and they don’t involve sleeping.”
Flames of desire rekindled instantly at his words. Feeling wicked, Kelly wriggled against his body, rubbing herself all over him. “Then I think we need to get the rest of the way onto this bed. Don’t you?”
He grunted in agreement, which was the only warning she got before he scooped her up and gently tossed her to the middle of the bed so that her head landed on a pillow. She heard a drawer open and turned her head to see him breaking the seal on a new box of condoms. Jenny’s early comments came back to her and Kelly found herself giggling. At least one of them had thought ahead.
“Something funny?” he asked, his hands already smoothing the latex into place.
“My sister reminded me that if I was going to start dating again, I’d need condoms that hadn’t expired before the Internet had been invented.”
He chuckled. “Siblings. You have to love them. Smart-mouthed pains in the ass that they are.”
“Yes they are.” She opened her arms to him in invitation and he was moving over her only seconds later. He settled his hips between her thighs, bracing his upper body with his arm
s as he leaned in to kiss her. There was nothing tentative or gentle about his kiss. His mouth slanted across hers, his passions unchecked for the first time. He controlled every second, demanding her surrender as his tongue chased hers through the dark recesses of her mouth.
When she moaned, he growled in response and rocked his hips so that the thick head of his cock slid along the lips of her pussy. Kelly drew her knees up, offering herself to him. “All mine.” She heard him say it clearly this time, the words groaned into her mouth as his cock pressed into her entrance.
Inch by inch he moved deeper, kissing her with an almost frantic need as their bodies blended and became one. He filled her completely, stroking over every nerve ending as he slowly buried himself to the hilt. She was so full of him that she could feel his cock throbbing against her inner walls as he went still, giving her body a chance to adjust to his presence. Kelly was in no mood to be patient.
She pulsed her inner muscles around his cock, squeezing it several times in quick succession, as she made her feelings known.
“Baby, you are playing with fire,” he warned and then withdrew only to thrust into her again, even deeper this time. Kelly arched her hips, taking in another fraction of an inch as she grinned up at him in challenge.
“I’m not afraid of a little fire.”
“You asked for it. Now you’re going to get it. I’m going to fuck you until you scream my name, and then I’m going to keep fucking you until you come again.” His hips started moving, faster and harder as he let go of his control and took her the way she needed, fast and wild. Kelly draped her arms around his neck, letting her nails drift across his back as he pounded into her. He was fuelled by passions as deep as her own, every stroke pushing them both closer to their breaking point.
His tongue speared into her mouth, thrusting in time to his hips. Her body responded with a ferocious need. She arched into every stroke, taking him deeper and harder than she had ever experienced. It was wild, raw, and savage, and she never wanted it to end.
Just as she felt herself teetering on the edge, Ben altered the angle of their bodies so that his cock slid over her swollen clit with every stroke. She came quickly after that, and as she tumbled into ecstasy she felt his cock thicken and jerk inside her. He cried out her name as he drove himself deep.
When they were done he slumped over her boneless body, his breath heating her throat as he panted softly.
“I should have asked you out months ago,” he muttered, making her laugh.
She turned her head to nuzzle his cheek. “Mhmm. I think so too. But we’re here now, and that’s what matters.”
Chapter Five
The moment Ben woke he knew right away something was different, but his sleep-scattered mind couldn’t puzzle out what it was at first. It was only when a delicate whiff of spice struck his nose that he recalled the passionate night he’d spent with Kelly. Just the memories of what they’d done together last night had him hard as an iron rod in a matter of seconds. He’d kept his word and made love to her all night long, both of them dozing off in each other’s arms only for one of them to wake and start the cycle all over again.
It had been dawn by the time they’d curled up together and gotten some proper sleep. At one point he’d gone downstairs to lock up and let Chase have one last run around the garden. When he’d gone back upstairs, he’d found Kelly hanging up their clothes to dry, just as naturally as if she’d done it many times before. Ben had watched her in silence, and all he could think about was the fact that she was the first woman he’d ever been with where there had been no awkward moments, no post-coital crisis of confidence.
Now the sun was bright enough he knew that the morning was nearly gone, and their perfect night had to come to an end. As he brushed a tender kiss to the top of her head, he silently prayed that it was the first of many nights to come.
He got out of bed, pulled on a pair of sweat pants, and headed for the bathroom to freshen his breath and grab a quick shower while Kelly slept. He caught himself whistling more than once as he cleaned up. Knowing the lovely vet was curled up in his bed was enough to make him a morning person, just this once.
He didn’t dawdle upstairs because he knew that by now Chase would be patiently waiting for breakfast. Once his partner was contentedly munching on his kibble, Ben started gathering together the makings of a pancake feast. He had the first pancakes flipped when a ruckus started upstairs.
“Chase, no! Ugh, doggy breath! Get off me, you big lug!” Shit. He hadn’t closed the bedroom door when he’d left. So much for Kelly sleeping in.
“Chase, leave her alone!” Ben bellowed, and jogged to the base of the stairs, a spatula still in his hand. “Sorry, baby. I forgot about him.”
Laughter floated down to him as Chase could be heard landing on the floor and trotting to the top of the stairs to grin down at Ben. “It’s alright. I just wasn’t expecting a tongue bath before breakfast.”
“Get down here, you troublemaker, and quit making moves on my girl!” Ben shook the spatula at Chase, who woofed at him and bounded down to the landing.
“Your girl, huh?” Kelly appeared next, her hair still sleep-tousled and a smile on her face as she gestured to the dark blue, Chicago PD shirt she was wearing. “Do you mind if your girl borrows this T-shirt? My dress is still damp.”
Ben knew he was staring but he couldn’t help himself. She looked incredible. Her long legs were bare beneath the shirt, and he was suddenly tempted to jog up the stairs and take her right there on the landing just so he could have those legs wrapped around him again. “Baby, you can have that shirt if you promise to always wear it just like that.”
“You have yourself a deal.” She lifted her head and inhaled. “Is that breakfast I smell?”
Ben brandished the spatula he was holding. “I did say I was making you chocolate chip pancakes, didn’t I? Did you think I was kidding?”
Kelly shot him a wicked grin of approval. “You can cook? The day I meet your mother, I need to tell her what a fabulous job she did raising you. Give me a few minutes to get myself together here and I’ll give you a hand.”
“Sounds good. I left a fresh towel for you on the bathroom counter, come down when you’re ready.”
Kelly blew him a kiss before heading down the hall, and Ben went back to cooking. He had just gotten the first few pancakes into the oven to stay warm when he heard her come down the stairs. He only made it as far as the doorway before she was in his arms, kissing him good morning.
I could get used to this.
She came down off her toes and grinned at him. “Now, what can I do to help?”
“You’re on coffee duty. Pour us both a mug please, and then get your cute ass over to the table. I’m happy for the company, but I’m cooking for you this time.”
“Bossy man.” She bounced past him, sticking her tongue out as she went by.
“Sassy woman,” he retorted and tapped her on the ass with the spatula. Kelly squealed with laughter, scampering away from him. As Ben followed her back to the kitchen he had a sense that it was going to be a very good day. It was certainly off to a fine start.
He was working on the last batch of pancakes when Kelly came up behind him, wrapping her arms around his waist. The soft mounds of her breasts were pressed into his back as she wriggled herself seductively against his backside. “Are you trying to distract the cook?”
Kelly slipped her fingers past the drawstring of his pants and caressed his rapidly rising cock. “I might be. Is it working?”
“Uh huh. If you keep that up, your breakfast is going to get cold.”
“I’m willing to risk it if you are.”
Ben lifted the pan off the burner and turned off the stove. “Breakfast is officially postponed.”
Her hand encircled his dick, pumping her fist in slow, firm strokes that made it hard for him to think. When he tried to turn around and face her, Kelly tightened her grip, making it clear she wanted him to stay where he was. He could tel
l she was getting turned on when her nipples tightened to pebbles, pressing into his back as she ground her pussy against his ass.
“Much as I’m enjoying this, I can’t touch you this way,” he grumbled. It didn’t matter that they’d had sex half the night. Right now all he wanted was to have her under his hands again. When she finally released him he turned around immediately, but when he reached for her she danced out of his reach, shaking her head.
“Will you let me do something for you? Please?” Kelly’s eyes shimmered with heat, the pink in her cheeks making them appear more blue than gray. One look at her lovely face and Ben knew he’d agree to whatever she had in mind, do anything she asked, just so long as she kept looking at him like that.
He nodded and her answering smile hit him like a punch to the stomach. Shit, he was in serious trouble.
“Come over here, and then don’t move,” she said, gesturing to a clear area of counter near the sink. He had no idea what she was planning, but he moved to where she had pointed and leaned back against the counter, his hands resting on the edge of the countertop. Before he could ask what she was up to, Kelly grabbed a dishtowel and dropped it on the floor at his feet. She lowered herself to her knees so her mouth was level with his groin.
Without giving him time to think, she tugged down his pants to mid-thigh and started dusting the length of his cock with tiny kisses. Lust roared through him, his hips already bucking gently against her mouth. “That feels so good, baby.”
She took the head of his cock into her mouth and hummed in response, the vibrations travelling right through to his balls. It felt so good his knees nearly buckled and he had to grip the edge of the counter to stay upright.
Kelly just continued humming, one hand fisting the base of his cock as the other cupped his balls and started massaging them gently. Her tongue started working back and forth across the tip and a low groan rumbled up from Ben’s chest as he watched. Every twist of her head and flick of her tongue made it harder to stay still. He wanted to thread his fingers through her dark curls and fuck her mouth until he came, but he didn’t.
