Fireworks: A Holiday Bad Boy Romance

by Claire Adams

  "Is anyone, really?" He leaned in and kissed me again before turning and pulling me up the stairs. "I'm still that guy, but there are just parts of me that the guys wouldn't get."

  "I understand that." I fumbled with my keys and dropped them twice before getting us in the house.

  "You nervous, baby?" He chuckled and reached for me as the door closed behind us.

  "Not in the slightest." I slid my hands over his warm skin and clasped my fingers together just behind his neck as he gripped the back of my thighs and urged me to wrap my legs around him.

  He pressed me to the door and rubbed against me. "Good. I figured after yesterday that we were done with pretenses."

  "Yesterday was hot." I licked at the side of his neck before sucking his earlobe into my mouth.

  "Let's make tonight hotter." He slid his fingers into the sides of my bathing suit, brushing his fingers over my ass and pulling a little. "You smell so good, Cora."

  I cupped his face and took my time exploring his mouth as his movements caused my body to flood with anticipation of the pleasure to come. "Take me to the bedroom."

  "Yeah," he mumbled and gripped my ass hard as he turned and walked us to the bedroom. Our kisses grew almost frantic by the time he laid me down on the bed and turned to shut and lock the door. He moved back toward me with a neediness in his eyes that had to have echoed my own. "I wanna taste you."

  I reached down as he gripped my shorts and worked to undo them so that he could tug them off. They were gone, as were my bathing suit bottoms, before I could pull my hands away. He growled softly and dropped to the floor by the edge of the bed. A moan ripped through me just at the idea of him putting his tongue on me, and I spread my legs and dropped back on the bed, unsure if I could stand while watching him lap at me. I was already overly sensitive where he was concerned, and the lust racing through my veins left me without a doubt that I was going to come—and fast.

  "Damn, baby. So beautiful." He leaned over and pressed his tongue to my center, wasting no time, at all. His hands brushed up and down my stomach and chest, teasing my nipples and gripping my hips as he worked me in varying rhythms. The delicious grunts that left him skittered across my skin and caused the build up to only intensify.

  He glanced up as I looked down at him, his tongue extended and running through my folds. I groaned and buckled, crying out his name as my body exploded. The brilliant high of the orgasm dragged me under, and I worked my hips, grinding myself against him. He seemed to only get more into it, and by the time I was done, he was working to bring me over the edge again.

  Two thick fingers sunk deep into me, rolling and pumping into my flesh as he sucked my clit into his mouth and looked up at me again.

  I went for bold and sunk my fingers into his hair as I watched him fuck me. His eyes fluttered closed as he groaned again and worked me faster, harder.

  "I'm so close." I dropped my head back and arched my back as he covered my sex with the wetness of his mouth and worked me so good. It didn't take another moment before I was crying out, jerking and shaking as another orgasm smashed into me.

  "So fucking hot, Cora. You're the hottest woman I've ever met." He licked at me as I calmed down, lapping up every ounce of what I had to offer before moving back and nodded at my chest. "Take off that top. I wanna see you fully."

  I nodded and held back the moan that beat against my teeth as he stripped out of his shorts. The skinny dipping in the darkness hadn't done justice to just how good he looked naked. His cock was thick and hard, standing proud and weeping precum as he reached for me.

  "Get a condom," I mumbled and reached out to stroke him, taking my time and pushing down to the thick base of his erection. I started to move down to press my lips to his thick meaty head, but he put a hand on my shoulder.

  "Next time. I wanna feel you wrapped around me tonight. I need to." He moved back, and I was a little stunned by his words. Next time? Relief flooded me. There would be a next time. It was all I needed to hear to sink down into the bed and fully give myself over to him.

  He crawled back on the bed after putting on the rubber and slid his hands up my thighs. "Turn over. I'll make love to you later this week, but tonight, I need to fuck you. I've been waiting to get my hands on you since the first day we met."

  I turned onto my stomach and moaned as his fingers dug into my hips, and he tugged me up onto my knees. My hands pressed into the bed as I lifted up, and he leaned over the top of me, kissing the back of my shoulder and pressing his teeth in as he ran his cock along my need, stroking me, teasing me.

  "Stretch your hands out and press your cheek to the bed, Cora. It will give me a good angle to have you come a few more times for me."

  I whimpered, hating myself for doing it, but realizing quickly that he was the more experienced one out of the two of us. I rarely obeyed anyone, but being with him left me wanting to do exactly what he asked of me. It was my pleasure at stake.

  "I want that," I murmured and slid my hand out in front of me, pressing my breasts to the bed and letting out a shaky sigh.

  "Me, too, baby." He pressed into me, and my body tightened as pleasure raced out from the center of my stomach and spread like wild-fire. He groaned loudly and pushed a little farther as his hands moved in large circles over my ass and lower back. Gripping my hips, he thrusted one more time as we both let out a long groan.

  I half expected him to talk me through the sex, to whisper naughty words or dark encouragements, but he didn't. He seemed too lost to fucking me slow and deep until I was tremoring beneath him. I'd never been taken care of so well, and I hadn't expected it from him. I imagined a hard, fast fuck, but that's not at all what he was up to.

  He reached down and gripped my shoulder, tugging me up just a little as he pumped into me again. "I can feel you getting close. Let go."

  "I'm trying." I let out a slow sigh and bounced against him, not worried about what he might think with me taking over our sex.

  He leaned down, hovering over the top of me as he pressed his chest to back.

  I groaned and undulated my hips as his fingers sunk into the wet mess between my legs. I jerked forward, needing him to work me fast and hard to bring myself over the cliff.

  "There you go, Cora. Take what you need." He pressed sensual kisses all over my back as I gripped the sheets and rammed backward to use him for my pleasure.

  He chuckled and moved back up to his knees as I dropped back down on the bed. "You're incredible. You know that."

  "Mmmm," I mumbled and pressed back on him again.

  "My turn." He gripped my ass hard, lighting up my pleasure points all over again before ramming into me in a quick, hard fashion that left me panting loudly. I reached between my legs and played with his sack as he continued to fuck me.

  His breath caught in his chest, and he pulled me back to meet his strokes, but it was only a few more times before he groaned and worked himself through a long orgasm.

  I dropped down on the bed and he pressed himself to my back as we panted softly together.

  "Incredible. Everything I imagined you to be and then some." He kissed the back of my neck a few times. "I'm going to clean up and open the window so we can just watch the show from here. Is that okay?"

  "Perfect," I muttered against the sheet.

  He got up, and I laid there for a few more minutes, unable to move due to the delicious pulsing throb that raced down my back and pooled between my thighs.

  I finally rolled onto my side and tugged the covers up as a yawn left me.

  "Tired, baby?" He walked back in the room with a towel around his waist, looking like the sin that he was.

  "Yeah, a little. That was incredible." I watched as he tugged the towel off and walked to the window to open it. He turned the lights off and crawled into the bed beside me, curling up to my back and nestling his semi-hard arousal between my legs.

  "Is it bad that I want more of you already?" He lifted up to an elbow and used his free hand to caress my hip and soft
ly massage my breast.

  "No. I feel the same." I squeezed my thighs around his cock and pulled forward a little, teasing him as he groaned.

  "I'm an all-night kind of guy, so watch it." He chuckled and leaned forward kissing the side of my neck as I snuggled against him.

  "Finally...one that can do it, instead of just talk about it." We laughed as he dropped back down beside me and wrapped his arms around me.

  "Can I stay for the night?" His voice was low and deep, but the slight sense of neediness I found in it left me with the notion that maybe he wasn't the playboy we all teased him for being.

  "Please?" I shifted my hips and pressed back, reveling in how good his skin felt against mine as he filled me up once again. I was going to keep up, not matter what was required of me.

  Chapter 26

  Brody

  The night before had been nothing less than amazing. After making love to Cora twice more, we finally fell asleep wrapped up in each other's arms. I couldn't remember ever sleeping beside someone I'd had sex with. It was...incredible. Scary.

  She was sleeping soundly when I woke up the next morning, her chestnut hair a mess and draped across her pretty face, her lips swollen and one breast peeking out from under the covers as if calling to me like a siren.

  I forced myself to lay there and enjoy how beautiful the soft curve of her cheek, her button nose, her long eyelashes were. She was exquisite, and though it hadn't been nearly long enough to think about a future together, I couldn't help but letting myself dream a little. We could date after the summer was over. I'd stay in Arizona and forgo the job with my uncle. I could find something here. If things worked out and we fell in love, then we would figure things out together.

  She wasn't the brainless, needy type of chick I usually took to bed with me, but more the kind of woman I could partner with. One that I could respect. I brushed her hair from her face as she made a cute little mewling noise and moved closer to me.

  I turned on my side and pulled her against me, kissing the side of her face and wrapping my arms around her. She looked good pressed to the front of me—and felt even better.

  "Hey." A knock at the door caused me to stiffen, but Cora didn't move. The door opened, and I gave Emily a cheeky grin as she stuck her head in and yelped. "Oh, fuck. I'm so sorry."

  "It's all good," I whispered. "She's still asleep, though."

  "Yeah, she sleeps like the dead. We're going to grab groceries for breakfast. We'll be back." She was behind the door, talking around it, which was too cute. These girls had turned out to be a treat for all of us over the last few weeks, no matter how many times I'd given the guys hell over them.

  A feeling of gratefulness washed over me as I dropped back down beside Cora.

  "I don't sleep like the dead." She blinked a few times and reached over, brushing her hand down my stomach and stroking me once.

  My chest tightened as pleasure ran through me. I'd never known a girl like her. She seemed completely unashamed of her actions. I loved it.

  "I'm thinking you do. I made love to you ten times last night while you were sleeping." I kissed the tip of her nose and rolled over on top of her, nestling myself between her thighs over the sheet.

  "I was wondering why I was so sore. I mean, you're big, but you're not that big." She smiled as I lifted my eyebrow at her. The little tart was teasing me.

  "Alright, then. I'll make sure to get you good the next time we fuck. I'll leave you nice and sore." I leaned down and brushed my lips by hers. Being with a woman in the morning light was something new for me, and where I wasn't sure I would enjoy it with anyone else, I was thrilled to have Cora beneath me.

  "How about now?" She wrapped her legs around me and chuckled as I gave her an incredulous look.

  "You're insatiable." I kissed her again before getting up and finding the towel I had on the floor. I wrapped it around my waist and offered her a hand. "Come on. Let's take a quick shower and let me wash you up. I want to get my hands on you again, and it seems like this might be a good way to do it."

  "I'm not sure after last night that I'd be able to deny you no matter what ploy you came up with." She got up and let the sheet fall, leaving my heart hammering in my chest. Every part of her looked inviting, and though I'd seen far too many woman naked, having her in front of me, completely bare, felt like something to treasure. I was in trouble, and it would seem that for the first time in my tainted life, I was falling for someone. For her.

  "I'm liking this new attitude, though the old one was hot, too." I reached for her and pulled her against me, kissing her a few times before pulling back and gripping her hand. "Shower, and then let's go out on the boat and find some place to drop the anchor where we can lay around together for most of the day."

  "That sounds perfect." She walked past me into the hall and made a sharp right turn. "Morning, Dedra."

  "Hey, girl. How was-” Dedra's eyes widened as I walked out of the room and smirked.

  "How was what?" I asked, putting my hands on my hips as her eyes ran down the length of me. I was quite grateful for the towel.

  "How were the fireworks?" She laughed and walked past me as Cora stuck her head back out of the open bathroom door and smiled.

  "Come on. It's freezing." She disappeared into the bathroom and I walked in.

  My thoughts faded fast as Cora leaned over and started the water. I reached out and caressed her ass, teasing her a little as she jerked up and glanced over her shoulder.

  "We only get thirty minutes in here, so no sex. It's house rules." She got into the shower, and I pulled the towel off my hips before joining her.

  "I'm a rule breaker. Does that mean I get sex?" I asked, reaching for the soap and lathering it up in my hands as she moved under the spray of the water. She lifted her hands to run her fingers through her hair, which jutted her heavy breasts out toward me.

  I reached out and took my time bathing each of them before moving down her stomach to the junction between her thighs.

  She moaned as I slid my fingers against her swollen flesh, and I couldn't help but move in and press my mouth to the side of her neck. "God, you're fucking hot, Cora."

  "You think so?" She kissed me once before turning around and putting her back to me. I took my time washing her back and taking special care to tease her ass while she pressed her hands to the wall above her and groaned for me.

  I pressed my teeth to the thick curve of her ass and slipped a finger deep inside of her, half expecting her to tell me to cut it out, but she didn't. Her body tightened as she took advantage of my offering and bounced on it, giving me a beautiful view of her ass.

  If I wasn't falling in love, I would be soon. Love and lust were too intertwined for me to understand the difference, and for the moment, with the sounds of her cries filling up the shower, I didn't give a shit which I was. I wasn't going anywhere.

  She sagged against the wall, and I pulled my fingers from her and stood up, grabbing for the soap and working it over my chest and rock-hard erection. I wanted to bend her over and finish the morning off right, but I knew the night would give us plenty more chances to explore each other. We needed time on the lake. Time to talk and figure each other out a little more.

  She smiled as she turned and reached for the soap. "Don't tell anyone that I'm as much of a whore as you are."

  "You are?" I lifted my eyebrow. "No, I don't believe that for a minute."

  She ran her soapy hands over my chest and scratched softly, melting me as she moved down to stroke my dick with both hands. I turned and pressed my back to the cold wall, feeling like my legs might give out underneath me any minute.

  "I am, but only with the right man." She turned the spray onto me and rinsed me off before moving to her knees.

  "Cora, you don't have to-”

  "Hush. I've wanted to since the day we met." She smirked and leaned forward, taking me deep inside her warm, wet mouth. Every part of me lit on fire for the girl before me. I was in deep shit, and for the first t
ime in my life, I didn't want to find a way out of it.

  "So, I know you don't want to talk about this, but tell me about Brandon. I wanna know what happened." I leaned over the boat and let one of the anchors go. It raced toward the water and disappeared, locking us in place in a sleepy-looking alcove off the side of the main lake.

  We'd taken a breakfast taco to go from Cindy and packed up a few sodas for a long boat ride together, just the two of us.

  She tugged her t-shirt off and then worked on her shorts as she ignored my question. Her white bikini looked delicious on her, and though I'd had her more times than I should have over the last twelve hours, I found myself hungry for more.

  Incredible.

  "We were friends for a while, and then we decided we would try dating." She moved to the front of the boat. "I'm really more like you than you might think. I really didn't want to be with one person during college, and I wasn't during high school, either. I didn't sleep around much, but the idea of being tied down to one person was stifling. If something happened to that guy...then what?"

  "Yeah, I get that." I stood up and pulled my shirt off before moving to sit down on the front of the boat and turning sideways. I offered her a hand as she crawled up there with me and lay down, putting her head in my lap.

  I leaned back and ran my fingers through her hair as she continued.

  "But Brandon wouldn't give up. He wanted a relationship, and we had some pretty great chemistry between us." She closed her eyes and let out a soft sigh.

  I stiffened as jealousy raged through me. I didn't want her having chemistry with anyone but me. Even with it being in the past, I still felt tense over it.

  "And, he slept around, why? You have to be every sane man's wet dream." I brushed my fingers by her cheek as she glanced up and gave me a warm smile. Her brown eyes were rimmed with unshed tears, and my gut constricted painfully. "Hey. We don't have to talk about this. The last thing I want is for you to feel pain of any kind."
