NO SECRETS NO LIES (SIN CITY HEAT SERIES Book 3)

by K, S

  Soul gathered up his money and shoved it in his hand. “You alright, man?”

  Amir belched long and loud. “I’m fine now.” He turned to stare at a bikini clad girl who sauntered by. “Damn!” Amir screamed. “I love this city!”

  He and Soul laughed. Atlanta had more than its fair share of beautiful women anyway, but Freak Week was a brotha's paradise.

  “Man, how many girls do you intend to sleep with?” Soul asked. “I’m surprised your dick hasn’t fallen off.”

  "Hell nah. I might be gettin' ass, but I’m doin’ it safely.” He patted his pocket stuffed with condoms. “Never leave home without 'em,” he grinned.

  One of their buddies slapped Soul on the back. "Yeah, just ‘cause you practically married to Sharon don’t mean the rest of us can’t enjoy our last few days before it’s time to hit the real world.”

  Everyone laughed because they knew Sharon hadn’t been happy about him coming to Freak Week, but he’d been determined to participate in this last celebration with his boys. Soul only had eyes for the woman he loved, and was in no way tempted to cheat no matter how much his friends ragged on him.

  Soon after, the group headed back to the hotel to shower and change before going to the next event. Once there, Amir stood in the lobby checking his messages on his phone. He smiled at a girl who passed by and touched his arm, but didn’t give her any encouragement to stop and have a conversation. He would never admit it to his boys, but he was a little bored. Being from Atlanta, he’d been coming to Freak Week for years, and it was getting old. Same type of females, just different faces.

  Not really looking at anything in particular, Amir leaned up against the wall and noticed a group of girls a few feet waiting for the elevator. They were joking with one of their friends about trying to have a good time. He glanced at the one giving her the most flack then smirked as he pulled out his cell phone. She looked and sounded like the hundreds of other women he’d come in contact with here. However, her next words caused him to listen closer.

  “Oh, we know you don’t plan on doing that, Ms. Innocent and Pure. God forbid you actually decide to have sex. I swear, you have to be the world’s only twenty-one year old virgin.”

  Amir’s head shot up as he looked at the girl the comment was directed to. Damn. A virgin?? As fine as she was?? Nah. Amir shook his head and rejected that thought. But then he noticed she didn’t deny it.

  As they got on the elevator, Amir straightened from his stance against the wall and took a step towards them. His eyes briefly met those of the young woman. A spark of awareness sizzled between them. She must've felt it too because she did a double take just as the doors closed.

  Not knowing why, he stood there and watched the numbers that indicated where the elevator stopped, and when he saw it displayed the tenth floor, he dashed towards the stairs.

  “Yo, Amir. Where you goin’, man?”

  Amir heard Soul call his name, but right now, he had to find this girl.

  Chapter 5

  Amir rounded the last set of stairs and burst through the door leading to the hallway. When he spotted the girl from the lobby, he hurried towards her.

  “Alright, ladies, here’s the room,” Shay announced. “Let’s freshen up then go and get our freak on!”

  Alexis followed everyone inside and was getting ready to close the door when she heard someone call out to her. Turning around, Alexis frowned when she recognized the guy she'd seen right before the elevator doors closed. “Wait, weren’t you just downstairs a second ago? How did you get up here so fast?”

  Amir confidently walked towards her smiling. “I took the stairs.”

  “You…took the stairs? Ten flights?” Alexis looked at him doubtfully. “You’re not even breathing hard.”

  “I play football at Morehouse.” Usually when he mentioned those two facts together, women tripped over themselves to speed things up to the next level – but apparently, this one was different.

  “Oh…okay. Well, can I help you?” she asked hesitantly after he just continued to stand there.

  Amir was a little put off, but quickly got himself together. He stepped closer and leaned against the wall, smiling again. “To be honest, I wanted to meet you.”

  “You ran up ten flights of stairs to meet me?” Alexis waited for the punch line. The women outnumbered the men here five to one. As good looking as this guy was, she doubted very seriously if he would go to all that trouble just to say hello.

  “My name is Amir.”

  Suddenly turning shy, she glanced down. “Umm…my name is Alexis.”

  “Pleased to meet you Alexis.” Amir looked down at her suitcase. “So you ladies are just getting here?”

  Before she could answer, Mia screamed from inside the room. “Lexie, what are you doing? Are you coming in are do you plan on…” Mia's sentence trailed off when she saw Amir leaning against the wall. “Oh. Uhhh...”

  Amir looked at Mia. “Hello,” he said as she continued to stare. This was the reaction he was used to getting - which made Alexis even more intriguing to him. “Hey, I don’t wanna hold you up, but I was wondering if we could meet up later on this evening.”

  Speechless, Alexis stared at him then turned pleading eyes towards Mia. For some reason, he made her nervous. There was no way she could spend time with him later. “Oh, I’m sorry, uh, we were all planning on going out…”

  “She’d love to meet you later,” Mia broke in.

  “Mia!”

  “What? Girl, more than likely, we’re all going to end up doing our own thing anyway.”

  Alexis huffed in silence as Mia gave Amir her cell phone number. When she found out Amir and his friends were planning on attending the step show later that evening, Mia told Amir they could meet up there.

  Amir looked at Alexis and hesitated. “Is that okay with you?”

  Alexis' stomach did somersaults as she stared into his eyes. He was so large and muscular. It wasn’t hard to believe he played football.

  “I…I guess so.”

  He blinded them with another one of those smiles. “Good. Well...I guess I’ll be talking to you later. Thanks Mia.”

  He left them standing there staring after him. Before he rounded the corner, he turned completely around and watched Alexis as he walked backwards. He gave her one last grin then was gone.

  The moment he was out of her sight, Alexis felt as if she had been released from a spell. She whipped around to confront Mia. “Why did you do that?!”

  “Lex, please. That man is fine! It’s time for you to have a little fun. Come on…its spring break!”

  Hours later as Alexis and her friends were leaving the step show, her phone rang. She had been on pins and needles all evening waiting on Amir to call, and when her phone still hadn’t rung by eight o’clock that night, she didn’t know who she was more upset at: him for not calling or herself for being disappointed when he didn’t.

  Lexie let the phone ring about three times before answering it. Trying to sound calm and unconcerned, she took a deep breath. “Hello?”

  “Alexis?”

  She hesitated as if not recognizing the voice, but on the inside, she was quivering like jelly. "Yes?"

  “Hi, it’s Amir.” Lexie still remained silent. “We met earlier today…at your hotel." When she still seemed clueless, Amir impatiently forced the next sentence out through clenched teeth. "In the hallway. Outside your door...??”

  “Ohhhh, okay. I remember now. How are you?”

  Amir heard the subtle, biting sarcasm and chuckled when he realized she was a little perturbed. “I’m fine. Sorry it took so long to call, but you know how crazy this event can be.”

  “No, actually I don’t. This is the first time I’ve ever been to Freak Week.”

  “Are you serious? Well, I’d love it if you’d let me make your first time special.”

  Alexis quickly inhaled. “Excuse me?”

  “Your first time here. At Freak Week.”

  Alexis released th
e breath she'd been holding. "Oh."

  Amir laughed softly. “Why. What did you think I meant?”

  “Nothing…”

  “Where are you?” he said, still in the same soft voice. “I miss you.”

  Alexis laughed. “You don’t know me. How could you miss me?” He was so full of shit.

  Amir laughed with her. “Let’s just say I’ve never run up ten flights of stairs to try and meet a woman. As much as I’m enjoying talking to you on the phone, I would love to be looking at your pretty face right now.”

  Alexis blushed and told him their location.

  “Good. Stay right there, I know exactly where you are. I’ll be there in five minutes.”

  After Alexis hung up, her girlfriends called out to her. “Are you ready, Lex? Come on girl, let’s go.”

  “Uh, you guys go on. I’ll catch up with you later. I’m meeting someone here.” They didn't move and waited on her to elaborate. She should’ve known they would demand details.

  “Hold up. Just who are you meeting?” Shay asked.

  “A friend.” She met Mia’s eyes, begging for help. After all, she had pushed up this whole thing.

  “Alright, my roomie is a grown ass woman and does not have to answer to any of us.”

  Shay looked from Mia to Alexis. “Alright, you bitches trying to hide something. I’m not moving from this spot until one of you tell me what’s going on. So once again, Alexis Duvall: who are you meeting?”

  “She’s meeting me.” The deep voice behind them caused the women to quickly turn around. When they saw Amir, they were speechless. Shay looked at Alexis and pointed to Amir. Alexis bit her lip and nodded.

  “Well, damn.” Shay said, looking Amir up and down. “Enough said. Come on ladies, let’s go. Alexis…have fun.”

  Alexis was so nervous. She'd never, ever done anything like this in her life and was beginning to think it was a bad idea. But then, Amir smiled and she melted. He wordlessly held out his hand, and after a slight hesitation, she took it and held on tight.

  “You okay with this?” Amir asked.

  Lexie nodded. “Yes.”

  “Good. Come on. Let me show you what Freak Week is all about.”

  F

  rom that point on, they were inseparable for the rest of the night. Alexis had so much fun, and although she’d just met Amir, she felt safe with him. Amir admitted to himself that the idea of sleeping with Alexis had been heavy on his mind when he’d overheard the conversation about her being a virgin, but he was actually having a great time.

  Staring at her now, Amir slowly leaned down to kiss her. Alexis trembled at the contact When their lips separated, her eyes stayed closed as she savored the feeling. Amir went in for another kiss and moaned when her tongue tentatively reached out for his.

  “Do you want to get out of here?”

  “Yes.” Alexis' voice was soft but sure.

  Amir smiled before taking her hand and leading her to his hotel room.

  Once there, Alexis followed him inside, but then hesitated.

  “What’s wrong?” Amir knew this was her first time and he tensed, waiting to see if she’d changed her mind.

  “Are you sure no one’s coming back here? Your roommates, or...”

  Relieved that this was her only concern, Amir smiled and pulled her further into the room. He and Soul had been rooming together, but Soul had decided to meet up with Sharon and wasn’t coming back tonight. “I’m sure. I have the room to myself. Do you want something to drink, or…”

  Alexis shook her head.

  Amir studied her closely, thinking again how pretty she was. “You can change your mind if you want. You don’t have to stay.” At this point, it would almost kill him to let her leave, but he didn’t want her to do anything she wasn’t comfortable with.

  Hearing the concern in his voice sealed the deal for Alexis. “No. I want to stay.”

  Chapter 6

  Wanting her with an urgency he couldn't explain, Amir claimed her lips again. This time, the kiss was hungry and demanding. His tongue swept around her mouth, tasting a hint of the candy apple they'd shared earlier.

  “You are so sweet, you know that?” he mumbled, gently biting her lip.

  Alexis kissed him back just as eagerly and wrapped her arms around his neck as he pulled her back towards the bed. Amir sat down and pulled Alexis between his legs. When he raised the bottom of her shirt and buried his face in her soft stomach, she trembled. Alexis rubbed the back of his head and looked down at him through half closed eyes.

  Before she knew it, her t-shirt was off and her bra expertly unsnapped. Alexis gasped as his two large hands reached up and captured a breast each, gently kneading them while his thumbs flicked over her sensitive nipples.

  “Amir…”

  “Do you like that, Alexis?” He pulled her closer and sucked a hard nipple between his lips, twirling his tongue around it and rendering her breathless.

  Amir slid one hand down to open her shorts. Once they were undone, his fingers trailed over the soft hair covering her feminine mound. His middle finger glided through the protective folds sheltering her femininity. When he lovingly caressed her clit, Alexis jump from the unexpected shock of pleasure.

  “Ohhh!” She screamed louder when Amir continued his one track journey to her slick center and lightly circled the outside of her lips. Her flesh throbbed and pulsated as if there was a whole other heartbeat between her legs.

  “Amir, please…”

  As Amir slowly withdrew his finger from Alexis, her inner muscles clenched greedily, not wanting to let him go. She held on to his shoulders to steady herself while he pulled both her shorts and panties down in one movement then stood before him completely naked.

  Amir’s eyes glazed over as he did a full body sweep. She was such sexy little thing. Her plump breasts were dotted with pouting chocolate nipples and her tiny waist curved in then gave way to flared hips which cradled the spot that was going to give them so much pleasure in a few minutes. Amir's hands followed the path his eyes had just taken. When his fingers slid down between her legs, Alexis' hips moved back and forth in rhythm to his command.

  “It's okay. Just let go," Amir urged when he saw her biting her lip to stop from screaming. Alexis' fingers dug into his shoulders as she came closer to her explosion.

  “That’s it baby. Cum on.” Amir whispered encouraging words to her. “Does it feel good to you?”

  Alexis nodded as Amir fingers moved a little faster and applied a bit more pressure. She wantonly grinded and gyrated against his hand until she climaxed.

  “Mmm...damn.” Amir's eyes never left her face. He had never taken such pleasure in watching or bringing a woman to an orgasm.

  Finally, Alexis collapsed against him. His voice rumbled with satisfaction. "Can I taste you Alexis?”

  Alexis nodded, wanting to tell him he could do whatever the hell he pleased, but she didn’t trust herself to be able to get the words out coherently. Amir pulled her on the bed and wasted no time going down and dipping his head to sample the thick honey he’d created. Alexis looked down at him in embarrassment, but as soon as his tongue started mimicking what his fingers had done a few minutes ago, she grabbed the covers and held on for the ride.

  Amir lightly thrashed his tongue over her clit, causing Alexis' hips to jump as if she were lying on a bed of hot coals. He slid his hands under her buttock, using his tongue to give her a slow fuck. “I knew you’d taste sweet,” his lips mumbled against her flesh.

  Taking a final lick, he lifted his head and looked up at her. Her breasts rose with each deep breath she took. Her screams were now quiet moans of satisfaction. Amir reached over and got a condom from the drawer. He quickly pulled his clothes off and rolled the protection down the length of his shaft before joining her in bed and covering her body with his.

  “Look at me, Alexis.”

  He waited until she slowly opened her eyes and focused on him then leaned down to kiss her. The urgency of the kiss told
her how much he wanted her - how he planned to have her. She moaned and sucked his tongue, tasting her essence that lingered on his taste buds.

  Unable to wait any longer, Amir parted her legs, keeping his eyes fixated on her face. He wanted to watch as she experienced her first time. When the head of his shaft touched her opening, she tensed.

  “Wait…”

  Amir gritted his teeth, struggling to keep control. “What’s wrong baby?” He knew his voice sounded gruff, but he was so aroused…so ready.

  “I’ve never...um…”

  His head swooped down to cover her lips with his as she struggled to verbalize what she wanted to say. “Shhh…it’s okay. I already know. I’ll be as gentle as I can. I’ll try not to hurt you.”

  Alexis peered up at him with a question in her eyes, no doubt wondering how he knew this was her first time. Before she could ask, she felt him carefully push against the barrier of her hymen.

  “Relax, baby. I‘m gonna make you feel good. I promise. ”

  Amir continued to whisper soothing words in her ear. When he pushed a couple of more inches in, Alexis pressed against his chest as a white hot pain tore through her. Alexis bit her lip to try and keep the cries inside. She'd known it was going to hurt, but she hadn’t imagined how much. Plus, it probably didn’t help that he was so...big.

  Amir remained still, letting her get used to his size. He closed his eyes and tried not to think about how tight and warm she felt wrapped around him.

  “I’m sorry,” she whimpered.

  “It’s okay,” he soothed. “We have all night.”

  Amir began again as gently as he could, pausing periodically until he was almost completely inside of her. He asked her again if she was alright and when she nodded yes, he probed until finally he was able to claim her innocence. Breathing hard, the only way Amir could explain the exquisiteness of the moment was that he was in heaven. Nothing had ever felt as good as this. He welcomed the sharp bite of her nails digging into his back as if she was marking her territory. Alexis finally relaxed enough to move with him, and when she exploded for the second time, her soft mewls made him lose it.
