His Distraction (Assured Distraction Book 2)

by Thia Finn

  Just as KeeMac and crew made it backstage and began checking on their equipment, the guys from Steel started to file off stage with brief waves and shouts of greeting before they exited through a dark hallway. Ryder stayed behind, offering to take Chandler and KeeMac into the city, still eager to make up for lost time in Chandler’s life, and sight-seeing with the young couple offered that opportunity.

  Later when AD walked off the stage and handed their guitars off to the roadies after their sound check, they discussed what they wanted to do. “Hey, Ryan, you want to join in on the fun?” Carter asked him.

  “No, I think I’ll pass on that. I don’t need to pay for pussy.”

  “Shit dude, it won’t be the same experience. These foreign women are sex professionals, and they might do a whole new level of kinky here in Amsterdam. Ain’t no women we meet backstage gonna do it like these women can. How could that not sound better than any other lame ass thing you could find to do for the next six hours?” Carter was doing everything he could to goad Ryan into admitting what the guitarist would rather be doing with his downtime. There were few real secrets between the band members for the duration of the tour living on top of each other as they did.

  “Uh, yeah, I think I’ll sit this one out, bud. I’ll get to hear about the amazing time you two have for the next six months or longer. Y’all better be sure to double-wrap that shit up tight.” Carter and Gunner just laughed as they stepped into the cab headed for De Wallen.

  “Why didn’t you just go with them, Ryan? It’s not like you’re missing anything here.” Peri gave him a tight smile. She was uncomfortable with the idea of him going, but knew she had no hold over him. She didn’t even know what they were doing at this point, except sharing some scorching moments in the dark.

  Peri watched him as he finished up with his guitar, and she realized that everyone else seemed to be lingering, as though they were waiting to hear what he had to say. Why are they all so desperate to know our business? They rarely ever paid any attention to him and Krissy and now the whole group seemed to be interested in our every exchange?

  As he walked toward her, Peri took the time to study his every step. She could never seem to get long enough to study his perfect features. She wanted to memorize completely the way he carried himself and the way he worked with his guitar on stage. He moved with confident grace, and she marveled at how a man could be that good-looking. His blond hair was pulled back with a leather strip, and the deep blue sapphire pools of his eyes, a girl could get lost them. The man was the epitome of sex on legs, but despite his good looks and women throwing themselves at him night after night, he didn’t seem to buy into the whole groupie scene like the other guys did. Sometimes, when she thought about it, she wondered how Krissy could let him walk away. What girl in her right mind would let this sexy, vital, passionate man get away?

  “Lost in space there, Peri?” he murmured. He was standing close enough to touch her, but he didn’t close the small gap.

  “What? Oh, yes. I was thinking about all I had to do. You know it’s always something with this group, and I hope I don’t have to bail those two out of jail later. We are not in America.”

  “They’re big boys. Let them take care of themselves for a little while.”

  “That’s what scares me. The idea of them taking care of themselves carries a lot of possibilities. And most of those scare me, especially as your manager.” She smiled at her subtle implication.

  “There’s the look I needed to see. You’re even more beautiful when you’re smiling, you know? It seems like we don’t see that as much as we used to back at the studio.”

  “Yeah? And you seem to know just the right things to say to a girl. I know a pick up line when I hear it, Ryan.”

  “Hey, I’m being honest. You are beautiful, Peri. Never doubt that.” Today she was dressed in a halter dress with a short, flippy skirt, and he loved it. The bright yellow was a change from the red she wore most often. The glimpses of her alabaster skin looked creamy beside the bright yellow. Her dark hair was pulled back with a wide yellow headband and a big bow tied on the side of her head leaving short bangs to frame her face and showcase her eyes that were so dark brown they almost looked black.

  “Peri, any man would tell you how gorgeous you look, with your dark hair against that bright color and your smooth white skin. You look like sunshine, and anyone that tells you differently must be some kind of dumb, blind fucker.”

  “Now, there’s the Ryan I know and adore,” she replied, laughing at his choice of words.

  “I’d really like, if you had some free time, for us to look around for a while? I know you’re busy with managing all our stuff, but can you take a break this afternoon? I want to spend time today with you.” He looked her directly in the eyes. “Just you.”

  “Yeah, I can probably spare about three hours before I need to be back at the stadium to get some things done. What did you have in mind?” she asked, trying hard to hide her sudden blush when she realized how the opening her question had left.

  “Chandler,” he yelled at the gorgeous couple waiting for their taxi. “What’s there to do around here that we would want to see?”

  “I’ll text you a list in a few minutes. We’re meeting Ryder and some of the guys from Steel, so we’ve got to run.”

  “Thanks, Chan. Y’all have fun!”

  Chandler texted them a list of things to see and do in their newest city, so they caught a taxi to take a ride on the canals and see the flowers blooming in Vondelpark. The two wandered around the museum area and finally went into the Brown Café for dinner. Their time together was a simple, relaxed afternoon and could not have been a better date if they had planned it in advance. Their Paris excursion had been an Olympic race compared to the leisurely pace they took through the gardens and art exhibits.

  Ryan bought Peri a bouquet of red tulips from the street vendor. “These are for you, Sunshine. They match those gorgeous lips.”

  “How sweet. I love tulips, you know. They are hard to get around Austin most of the year. Thanks for thinking of me.”

  “Seems like I’m thinking about you a lot here lately, but it never pans out the way I see it in my mind.” He gave her a knowing smile heavy with overtones that seemed to echo all the things she was thinking, too.

  The bus was empty when they returned to the venue. “Hmm. Well, well. Seems we have the bus all to ourselves for a change. I might finally get you all to myself. Not that that’s all I think of,” he smirked.

  Peri moved down the center of the bus then turned around midway, causing Ryan to run into her, almost knocking her down. He grabbed her in time to keep her from landing on the floor.

  “Whoa, Peri. What are you doing?” She looked at him, clasped her hands around his neck and jumped, wrapping herself around him. She surprised him but he was pleased to catch her and hold her close. She kissed him with every bit of pent-up energy she had been storing since their night in the dressing room. She tugged the leather from his hair and fingered the strands loose so she could run her hands through the thickness of it. Her tongue enjoyed long strokes of pleasure working her way around the warmth of his mouth.

  She finally pulled back and looked him in the eyes. “Peri, what was that all about? I mean, I’m not complaining at all, but wow.” They were both trying to get some control of their breathing. She didn’t say a word to him but started kissing up his neck and popping the snaps on his shirt. “Okay, I get it. We can talk later.”

  He moved to the back of the bus, hoping the bedroom was at least somewhat livable because he had no intentions of stopping this time. He silently prayed there would be no interruptions this time. She had his shirt off before they reached the bedside where stood her on her own two feet, untying the top of her dress and tugged the bottom hemline so it would fall.

  “Peri, you’re going to kill me with these amazing tits. Those little nipple rings and the artwork make me crazy.” He pulled her up on the bed and bent down so he could fe
ast on her flesh. He kissed and nipped across the floral adornment while palming the heaviness of each perfect globe. He ran his thumbs over the already puckered peaks loving the feel of them on his rough fingertips. Finally sucking her left pebble in his warm, ready mouth, he tongued the ring, and she couldn’t stop herself from letting out a moan. He rolled the other around with his index finger and thumb while he continued to run his tongue over the first one. Ryan had built up callused fingertips from years of guitar playing, and now they offered heightened pleasure everywhere they touched. The pressure he used with his tongue, teeth and fingers shot straight to the walls of her womb causing an involuntary clinching.

  The saying was true: guitar players really do finger better.

  She started working on his belt buckle as quickly as her mind could function with him tormenting her senses by tugging on the rings in her nipples. She’d had them pierced for several months before they left, and the rings made her already sensitive breasts feel like they were on fire with need when he touched them in any way.

  She couldn’t wait another minute to wrap him in her hand, so not bothering to unbutton his jeans, she slid her hand down inside to grasp his steel-like length. Long and thick, she found a pearl of liquid waiting for her. “Gah! You guys and your tight jeans.” She couldn’t get her hand in far enough to touch all of him, so she started back on the button and zipper to free him. As she tugged them down, she found him commando under the denim and smiled a little, thinking about how much damage a zipper could do there if they weren’t careful.

  He picked her up around the waist and fell back on the bed with her in his arms. He kissed her until she was breathless, then flipped them over as he started down her body, leaving a trail of little red bites between her breasts that he soothed with soft wet kisses. He added nips and licks that had her writhing as he continued down her luscious body, finding another tattoo on each hip bone; one side was an anchor with intricate roses around it and the other a compass rose with the same floral design.

  “Peri, these look incredible on your white skin. God, you’re breathtaking. I want to want to know why you chose these. Promise you’ll tell me about them later?”

  She nodded her agreement at him and nudged her hips toward his face with a whimper, begging him to continue.

  He resumed his exploration of her body, kissing his way over each story told in the ink on her body then continued his path down her body. With his destination in sight, he scooted her up the bed and lay down between her legs, pushing them further apart so he could have access to the spot he sought. He wrapped his arm around the back of her thigh and bent her leg so he could start with marking her on the soft skin on her inner thighs.

  His exquisite form of torture was driving her insane. She was desperate for him to get where he was going. She was still wearing a scrap of yellow lace but only until he got his fingers under the sides of it.

  “Are you overly fond of these?” When she shook her head no, he popped the sides, pulled them off, and threw them over his shoulder. “Good, they were in my way.” He gave her a devious smile as he explained. “God you’re gorgeous everywhere, Peri.” He loved the silky smooth bare skin he found hiding under the lace.

  On her elbows so she could see him better, Peri couldn’t believe how much time he was taking with her. She was so ready for him to touch her but he seemed to be savoring every single inch of her body, prolonging the delicious torture. When he nipped and sucked his way up her thigh, he left more small red love bites, as if he was looking for the perfect spot. Then he would stop and soothe each one with a slow stroke of his tongue, before proceeding all the way up to the juncture of her thigh and body. Finally, his tongue made a long, slow, flat lick from her heated entrance to the top of her crease without moving between the lips, only to increase the pleasure, extend the torture. She moaned out loudly this time, followed by, “OH MY GOD!”

  He smirked, knowing exactly what he was doing to her. On his next pass, he barely breached the slit as he traveled in the opposite direction back down her, and she arched up off the bed.

  “What the fuck, Ryan, this is like a slow death.” He knew she loved it, and he didn’t want to rush this. He had waited and been tormented for days now, and he wanted to enjoy every sensual lick.

  “You taste so good maybe I’ll keep this up for a while.” All he received in return was her lifting her hips toward his mouth, followed by a tug on his hair that was sliding over her skin with each pass of his tongue. The silky locks were creating their brand of delightful sensation.

  Barely sliding his index finger in from where her intoxicating liquor flowed, he traced up her opening again and followed the finger with his tongue, but when his tongue reached her clit, he slowly started circling almost in a rhythm.

  Peri was now digging into the sheets with her fingernails with each sensation he created. She moved her hands to the rings in her nipples and moved them around while slightly tugging them. She knew it added to her pleasure, but Ryan intently watched as he pushed two fingers into her hot passage and curled them around searching for the perfect spot.

  “Oh, Babe, watching you pull on those nipples makes could make me blow right now.” One tug from her on each side with him stroking over the most delicious spot and she shattered all around him, moaning his name among other things he couldn’t quite make out. He didn’t let up, sending her into another orgasm before she could come down from the first.

  Peri couldn’t remember ever having orgasms as intense or lasted as long before. She didn’t have a coherent thought in her mind when he let her come down from the two he delivered back-to-back. He slid up her body, lying beside her, and ran his fingers over the tattoo above her breasts when she finally opened her eyes.

  “Oh, there you are. I thought I’d lost you for a moment.” He smiled at her and kissed her shoulder. “You’re the most beautiful woman, Sunshine. I couldn’t stop watching you when you finally let go. It does all kinds of things to me to see your gorgeous face when you get lost in your release. Makes me want to make you come over and over.”

  She was still floating in a post-orgasmic fog or something because all she could do was smile back at him.

  “I honestly don’t think I can move a muscle in my entire body yet.”

  He continued applying soft kisses to her shoulder and tracing the flowers with the lightest of touches until she regained some of her faculties.

  “Ryan, I don’t know what that was, because never in my life have I had an orgasm like that. Will you assure me there’s more where that came from?”

  “Aww, shucks ma’am, you’re going to give me a big ol’ ego with talk like that,” he said in an exaggerated Texas drawl making her laugh with pleasure as she shook her head.

  He rolled on top of her and kissed her in a leisurely way that quickly intensified when she wrapped her legs around his body and dug her heels into his perfect ass, pulling him in closer to her heated center. He wanted nothing more than to push into her willing body and used her hard and fast but he didn’t want that for their first time together. He wanted to draw it out, but after the little show she put on for him, he doubted he would be able to hold off for long once he entered her.

  He sat up and discarded his jeans after retrieving a condom, ripping open the wrapper and rolling it on. He slid his rock solid hardness up and down her gathering the essence he needed in preparing to enter nirvana. Ryan paused at the chasm he was anxious to get lost in, then pushed forward just enough for the head to breach her before backing out enough without actually separating from her.

  “Please don’t tell me you are going to torture me again?” He laughed and descended a little further this time.

  “Just trying to make it last, Sunshine. It’s taken us a lot of trial and error to get here, and I want to enjoy you. Indulge me and I’ll make it worth it.” He slid in again but this time he managed sinking most of his length inside her. On his next thrust, he went deep, and they both moaned when she enclosed him in her
tight, pulsating warmth. He couldn’t take it any longer. He wanted to move - no, he had to move - since he was now torturing them both. His thrusts began long and slow, but when he could no longer withstand the torment he created, he changed to a friction-inducing motion that sent them both into a frenzy.

  He knew his thrusts were deep but knew she loved the feeling. Hard. Fast. Deep. It couldn’t get any better in his mind, especially when he knew from her responses she felt the same.

  Ryan stopped before he was going to blow inside her, and he pulled her knees up over his arms at his elbows and went even deeper with each thrust. It was such an intense feeling, almost more than he was afraid she could take, so he sucked her luscious nipple into his mouth and flicked the ring a few times, knowing she was as close as he was. That was all it took to send her careening into an abyss, her muscles involuntarily quivering all around his perfect cock buried inside of her. The feeling took his breath away, and he shot so hard into the condom he was afraid it might burst. Her groans were unintelligible noises that matched his as they held on to the intensity of their sudden detonations, but it didn’t matter to them. He knew what they had experienced this first time together had been worth the wait, and the ending was rapturous.

  Peri straightened her legs and pulled him down completely on top of her, taking his weight as he pressed her into the mattress. She reveled in the feeling of his strong body and warm skin covering hers without barriers. She wanted to know his strength by holding him tight this way. He tried to roll off her but she wouldn’t let him go.

  “I don’t want to hurt you. I’m too heavy for you to hold.”

  “No, you are just right. Please indulge me a little longer. I love this feeling.” He lay back down trying to hold some of his bulk off her, but she was having none of it. She wanted him all to herself. She needed the closeness right then to complete the act of the love they’d made.
