matter.
“Different reasons,” I said.
She looked confused and cocked her head to the side. “What do you mean?”
“I didn’t think you’d break up with him for that reason. I mean, yeah, I didn’t expect that he cheated on you. It was more I thought you wanted your happiness back, you know, and that you could do better.”
She blushed and gave a half-smile. “You know how to make a girl feel good. Thanks, I mean, that you thought I could do better. Sometimes, I think I doubted it myself.”
“Actually, I do know how to make a girl feel good,” I teased. “The other night at your house, and at the club.”
She didn’t say anything. My directness had stunned her. I wasn’t trying to make her go silent. It wasn’t my intention. It’s just that there was no reason to avoid the obvious. There was something between us. Chemistry. Sizzle.
Her body language changed instantly. She clasped her hands, and pressed her knees together, not sure what to say or do.
I stood.
She looked up at me, hesitant. I could see her brain ticking, trying to figure out what to do.
I cocked my head to the side, indicating the hallway. I took a step toward my bedroom and she followed.
Chapter 12 – Dawn
I followed behind him. The moment I’d reached him; he was on me. He immediately wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me closer. His other hand reached up and cupped a breast.
The way I wanted him overwhelmed me. To have him back here, and now to be with him.
Luke lifted my red dress up over my head and tossed it to the floor. It was crumpled into a ball on the floor. I wouldn’t be needing it. I wanted to feel his hands and mouth all over my body. I ached for his touch.
He reached around and unhooked my bra. I helped him slide it over my shoulders, then let it join my dress on the floor. He wasted no time in hooking his fingers around the elastic waistband of my panties. He shoved them over my hips and pushed them to the floor. I stepped out of them, caught up in the high of a fantasy come to life. I slid my heels off and stood before him.
His chin rested against my shoulder. His warm breath on my ear had me dizzy with lust. I was naked in his room, longing to feel him inside of me.
Luke instructed me to sit on his bed.
He towered over me, standing before me. He was already tall, but with me on the bed, naked and vulnerable, his size became more obvious.
He bent down and reached into his nightstand. Pulling out three condoms, all still attached at the perforated edges, he tossed them onto the bed beside me.
As he lifted his shirt off, I couldn’t help but stare. His body was tight. His chest was broad and muscled, and he showcased an amazing set of abs. I couldn’t help myself, I needed to reach out and touch. I slid my fingers over the lines of his torso. His skin was warm and taught. It took everything inside not to lean forward and taste that sweet skin of his.
His hips formed a V-shape, and a fine line of dark hair trailed down from his chest and continued past the waistline of his pants. He unfastened his belt, then his button and zipper.
“Touch me,” he said in a rough whisper, eager and hungry.
I slid my hand down his stomach, and over the elastic of his boxers. Looking up, our eyes met in a long, smoldering gaze. There was fire, lust, intensity between us. He needed me as much as I needed him.
When I drew his boxers down, his hard cock sprang out of them. He was fully erect, rigid. For me.
I parted my lips and leaned forward. Tipping my chin back up, so he could look into my eyes, I took him into my mouth, teasing him first. I wrapped my lips around the head of his cock and closed them. I inched more of him into my mouth, slowly, surely, taking my time.
His hips gyrated, needing to push it deeper. I could feel him getting even thicker, bigger, harder in my mouth. I took as much of his cock as I could, feeling it nudging the back of my throat.
Luke reached down and moved a strand of my hair
