When Cole knew he had her, he walked her backwards into her apartment and kicked the door shut with his foot. He turned them around turned and pressed her against the door. He pulled back from her slightly allowing his eyes to meet hers. She just stared back at him in complete shock. He brought his lips to hers once again, but this time it was much softer.
Ally allowed herself to lean into him as she slowly slid her hands up his broad chest, up inside his jacket, slipping it over his shoulder and pushed it off, letting it drop to the floor. She then quickly wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer to her. She had never felt this brave or confident with a guy before but something about him made her lose her inhibitions.
He slid his arms around her again and held her against him so tightly they were almost one. Ally could feel every inch of his perfect, hard body pressed against her and desire ignited inside her making her gasp. He took advantage of her open mouth and slid his tongue in, softly caressed her tongue with his.
Ally’s head was in a spin. She closed her eyes and allowed herself to melt into his kiss. He smelt divine and his lips felt soft and perfect against hers. She had never been kissed like this before. She had never felt like this before. What the hell was happening to her?
Slowly he pulled his lips from hers but he didn’t pull away from her completely.
“Jesus Christ,” he whispered, breathlessly. “What the hell are you doing to me?”
Before Ally could answer, his mouth was on hers again and he was pressing her hard against the wall. She could feel his rock hard length against her belly and it made her cry out.
“I want you,” he whispered as he released her mouth and kissed her neck. Sucking and biting softly as he moved. He let his hands slide from her back, down to her side, down her thighs until he reached the bottom of her dress and slowly began to slide it back up her legs. When he reached her backside, he grabbed it with both hands and pressed her closer to him. He moved his hands up to the rim of her panties and slid his fingers inside them.
“Cole, wait!” Ally cried, quickly dropping her hands to his and stopping him immediately.
“What’s wrong?” he asked pulling away from her slightly and looking at her with concern.
“I can’t do this,” she replied breathlessly.
“What?” he whispered. “Why not?”
“I don’t even know you,” she replied and closed her eyes. She couldn’t even look at him anymore.
“Ally, you know you want me,” he said tracing soft kisses up her neck as his hand reached up and pulled the shoulder of her dress back enough so he could kiss her along her collar bone. “I know you have wanted me since you stopped to help me on the side of the road. Why are you fighting this? You know I want you too. I have never wanted anything more.”
His lips returned to hers but his kiss was soft. He pulled back and looked into her eyes, waiting for her to give him permission.
“Oh, Holy crap!” she exclaimed before she launched herself at him, wrapping her arms tightly around him and she pressed her body hard against his. He returned her kiss with fierce passion.
She quickly grabbed his hand and led him to her bedroom.
This was so not like her. She usually preferred to take things really slowly. She didn’t give her heart away easily and certainly didn’t fall into bed with someone she had just met. She was with Jason months before she slept with him.
But she wanted Cole. She wanted him with every ounce of her body and she just couldn’t say no. And the buzz from all the wine didn't help her either.
When they reached her bedroom he threw her back on the bed and he stood for a moment watching her laying there before him. Her breathing quickened as he let his eyes rake over her body. He kneeled between her feet and he softly brushed the tips of his fingers up her legs slowly until he reached the bottom of her dress.
Taking the edge of her dress, he eased it up her body. He leaned down and kissed her inner thigh softly, as his hands inched the dress higher and higher.
When he reached her black lace panties, he ran his tongue across the waist band before he pressed his mouth against her naked stomach.
“You smell so good,” he whispered in between the delicate kisses, he pressed against her soft skin as he continued on his journey up the middle of her body.
Finally, he gently pulled her dress over her head and he pushed his body against her.
Pressing his mouth to hers he reached down and cupped her breast in his hand, stroking her nipple softly with his thumb through the soft lace of her bra sending shock waves through her body.
“God you are beautiful,” he breathed against her neck. His kisses continued softly, nipping his way down till his mouth reached her breast, his tongue caressing her across the curve of her generous cleavage. He ran his finger up along the strap of her bra till he reached the shoulder and slipped it down her arm. Then he slid his hand back down till he reached the cup of her bra and pulled it down exposing her breast and her now swollen nipple. He quickly took it in his mouth and sucked it urgently making her cry out with pleasure as her back arched up off the bed.
He slid his arms around her and opened the clasp on her bra and slid it down her arms before he returned his mouth to her, licking and sucking one then the other of her prefect breasts.
She reached down and grabbed the bottom of his t-shirt, pulling it over his head.
WOW! she gasped inwardly and bit down on her lip to control herself and help her keep her thoughts to herself. His body was amazing. She ran her finger down his perfect abs until she reached the waist band of his jeans. She forcefully pulled the button open.
He leaned up and moved himself slightly so he was kneeling beside her legs. Taking the rim of her panties in his fingers, he slowly slid them down her legs. She lifted her bum up off the bed to make it easier for him.
Now she lay there, naked. She instinctively tried to cover herself with her hands, but he stopped her.
“You have nothing to be ashamed of, Ally,” he said as he raked over her body with his eyes once again. “You are stunningly beautiful.”
Slowly standing up off the bed he removed his trousers, his boxers, shoes and socks. Then he stood before her.
She gazed down at his rock hard length and gasped. He was big. Bigger than Jason. She couldn’t help but mentally high five herself.
Slowly he crawled back over her and leaned down and softly kissed her stomach and working his way back up her body until he reached her breasts again. He took her nipple in his mouth and bit it softly.
“Oh God,” she cried out.
She could feel him slip his hand between her legs. His fingers softly caressed and teased her. She could feel the desire burning in her core as she tilted herself up against his hand, longing for some release.
He eased his finger through her folds and sunk into her. Ally cried out in pleasure.
He stroked her gently. She felt a second finger slowly sliding in and out, picking up speed and pressure. She knew she was close. She had never felt so aroused like this before. Her body began to quiver as he stroked her deeper and harder.
But just as she reached the edge he stopped and left her longing.
“COLE, PLEASE!” she cried out in need. Her eyes met his and he smiled, knowing just what he was doing to her.
Slowly his fingers began to move again, this time his movement was slower but deeper. She lifted her hips to grind herself against his hand
“PLEASE!” she begged him; she couldn’t bear it any longer. As he pushed his fingers inside her once again, this time it was harder and so much deeper.
She cried out, almost feral like as she fell apart beneath him, her body trembling as her orgasm tore through her. She was vaguely aware of foil ripping and a few moments later he was between her legs. He positioned the head of his cock at her entrance and he leaned over and stared into her eyes waiting for permission from her.
“Yes,” she whispered, almost a cry from her lips and as he in
one swift move plunged deep into her, she cried out with the fullness of his entire length.
He pulled her close to him as he began to move with long deliberate strokes and she could feel the build up inside her again. She had never felt so alive.
As he thrust deeper inside her he pressed his mouth against hers and their tongues became one. He kissed with so much passion he took her breath away.
“Jesus, Ally, you feel so good,” he moaned against her mouth. Then he wrapped his arms around her and rolled them over so now she was on top.
“I want to see your body,” he said breathlessly.
Nervously, Ally sat up on top of him, unsure if she could do this. She had never felt confident to do this with Jason, or anyone else for that matter. Could she do this with Cole? His hungry gaze made her feel beautiful and gave her the courage she needed. Slowly she began to move, grinding herself against him. He grabbed her by the hips and held her tightly as she gained more confidence.
He watched her closely as she moved above him. She was stunning. His eyes never left her, he could see her confidence grow which each thrust of her hips as she ground into him harder and harder.
Ally could feel her confidence grow, too. He made her feel beautiful the way he watched her. She could feel him throb deep inside her and she knew he was trying hard to control himself, to keep himself from coming.
As she ground him harder and harder, making circles with her hips, she wound herself up until she could hold back no longer. She cried out loudly as she threw her head back, her body trembled as she fell apart above him and came again.
Feeling spent, she collapsed on his chest, heaving. But Cole was far from finished. He held her tight and rolled them over.... Now he was back on top and pounding into her but this time his pace was unforgiving.
“Oh GOD, ALLY!” he cried as he slammed into her one more time and came inside her.
He carefully lowered himself on top of her on the bed, both of them breathing rapidly and soaked with a thin layer of sweat.
“You... You are amazing!” Cole said leaning up and wiping the damp hair from her face and staring down at her. “Truly incredible.”
He eased out of her and rolled onto his back, removed his condom, and discreetly discarded it the floor. Then he rolled back on his side and stared at Ally and she smiled nervously at him.
“Hey,” he said with a smile.
“Hey,” Ally replied suddenly feeling a little shy. Get a grip, she thought to herself. This man just shagged your brains out. It’s a little bit late to be feeling shy now.
Cole leaned over and kissed her on the lips softly.
Ally half expected Cole to jump up and say he had to go but instead he surprised her by pulling the duvet up over them and pulling her into his arms and kissing her softly on the top of her head.
“Goodnight, Ally,” he whispered
“Goodnight, Cole,” Ally replied. She lay there next to Cole not really sure what just happened. Will she knew what happened just wasn’t sure how. She had been so determined that she wasn’t going to end up with this man. And yet here she was sleeping next to him after having, without doubt, the best sex in her life.
She listened as his breathing became shallow and soft. He was asleep. Cole Thomas was asleep in her bed.
As she tried to get her head around that piece of information as she snuggled into his chest and slowly she could felt herself drifting off to sleep.
Chapter 5
Ally woke up the next morning and rolled over to an empty bed. At first nothing seemed strange other than the banging headache she had. Damn what was she thinking, drinking so much? But then memories of the night before crashed into her head and she quickly sat up in the bed.
He was gone. He just left without even saying goodbye. Ally flopped back in the bed and groaned. How could she have been so stupid to have sex with a guy she didn’t know?
“YOU SLUT!” she screamed at the top of her voice. Suddenly she heard the shower taps squeaking off and the shower door sliding open.
“Oh shit!” she whispered under her breathe. He was still here. How had she not heard the running water? She quickly pulled the duvet over her and held her breath
A few minutes later her en-suite door opened and there he was, wrapped in a towel. Still glistening with water and looking sexy as hell.
“Good morning, beautiful,” he said as he rubbed his hair with the towel he had in his other hand.
“Good morning,” she replied peeking from over the top of her duvet. He walked over and sat down next to her and Ally thought her heart was going to stop when he smiled at her.
“So,” he said with a grin. “You think you’re a slut do you?”
Oh dear God... he heard me! she screamed in her mind and pulled the duvet back over her head.
“Ally, look at me,” Cole said with a half laugh.
“No!” she replied from under the duvet, mortified.
“Ally, look at me please,” he repeated this time a little firmly.
Slowly Ally pulled the duvet down from her face and peeked out at him. He reached up and pulled the duvet the rest of the way off her face.
“You are not regretting last night, are you?” Cole asked looking straight into Ally’s eyes.
She didn’t reply instead just shrugged her shoulders and sunk back under the duvet.
He leaned, pulled the duvet down and kissed her softly on the lips.
“Last night was amazing,” he reassured her and kissed her again. “And I plan on doing it again and again.”
“You do?” Ally asked, her voice barely a whisper.
“I do,” he replied kissing her again and smiled. Then sitting up straight on the bed he added. “But right now I am running late, I have a damn business meeting I can’t get out of. One of my clients is going away till after Christmas and today was the only day he could meet me. I am really not happy about working on a Saturday morning, I could think of a far more interesting way to spend my Saturday morning.” He gave her a mischievous grin and wiggled his eyebrows before he stood up and returned to the bathroom.
Oh holy hell, she thought to herself and sighed. You are in big trouble, Ally Brody. She climbed out of bed and quickly grabbed her dressing gown and headed out to the kitchen. She filled her coffee maker and switched on the coffee maker and opened the cupboard above it and took two mugs out. She wondered if he would even want coffee. Did he even like coffee?
She realized she knew absolutely nothing about him. He could be a deranged lunatic; he could have a girlfriend, or a wife.
Oh shit! He could be married! she thought. I could be the other woman.” The thought made her feel sick. She detested woman who preyed on married men and spread their poison through someone else’s relationship, those women that didn’t care if they were destroying a family or hurting a wife or a child.
“Penny for your thoughts?” Cole said suddenly from behind Ally making her jump with fright so much she dropped the two mugs she was holding. They hit the tiled floor shattering and sending pieces everywhere.
“Jesus, Ally!” Cole said moving closer to her. “I didn’t mean to scare you. Don’t move. You have nothing on your feet. I will clean this up.”
“It’s fine!” she said dropping to her knees and picking up the pieces. As she reached down for a piece she flashed a quick glance up at Cole.
He looked almost angry as he quickly reached down and grabbed her and pulled her back up and then lifted her up and put her sitting on the counter.
“I said I would do it!” he growled looking her straight in the eyes and his tone made her realize he wasn’t to be argued with.
She sat on the counter top and watched as he picked up all the large pieces of the mugs that were scattered on the floor. He looked up at her through his long lashes and concern was etched on his face.
“Where’s your dust pan?” he asked as he stood up and walked to the bin and drop the broken piece of the mugs into it.
“It’s under the si
nk,” she replied watching his every move. He opened the press and took out the dust pan and brush and swept up the smaller pieces then tipped them into the bin too. He put the dust pan back under the sink and turned to Ally.
He walked towards her slowly, his eyes fixed on her. He moved in between her legs and slid his arms around her and pulled her close to him.
“So are you going to tell me what all that was about?” he ask and let his lips brush hers softly. Ally couldn’t look him in the eyes anymore. “What’s wrong?”
“Are you married?” Ally asked nervously, unable to let her eyes meet his.
To her surprised Cole burst out laughing. She looked up at him feeling embarrassed and a little pissed that he was actually laughing at her.
“No, Ally, I am not married,” he said unable to stop laughing.
“It isn’t funny, Cole,” Ally snapped. “Let’s face it. I don’t know the first thing about you. And you wouldn’t be the first guy I know who was monogamously challenged”.
His laughing stopped instantly and his smile quickly faded as he took her hands and looked into the eyes.
“Who hurt you, Ally?” he asked deadly serious.
“It doesn’t matter,” she sighed and dropped her eyes to their hands. “I just don’t want to be someone who ruins a wife’s or a child’s life. I don’t ever want to be the other woman. I don’t ever want some kid to look at me and say; ‘only for you they would be happy’ ”.
“There is no one else, Ally,” he said as he leaned his head against hers. “You can trust me.”
“Ok,” she whispered as she finally allowed her eyes to meet his. He softly pressed his lips against hers.
“I really need to be going,” he said as he reluctantly pulled his lips from hers. “But we will talk about this later.”
“Later?” she asked.
“Yes, you’ll meet me for lunch,” he replied and it wasn’t a request. “Where ever you want to go.”
“How about The Halfway House?” she suggested.
