as his arms are out of the way, I finish taking off
his tie. Then I remove his shirt.
In a matter of
minutes, we're both naked. He sits on the edge of my bed and pulls me
on top of him. I straddle him, desperate to feel him inside of me.
I'm not sure if our
bodies have ever joined more quickly, but I'm loving it. I toss my
head back and moan as I move on top of him, feeling his thickness
spreading me. He kisses my throat and gropes my breasts, his hips
writhing.
I squeak as he
tosses me down onto the bed, crawling between my legs. I hook them
around his hips and gasp when he drives into me. I wrap my arms
around his shoulders, holding onto him while he pushes us both
towards oblivion. The sex is needy and intense. He thrusts into me
with long deep strokes, causing a tiny bite of pleasure-pain every
time he reaches the limits of my body. I whimper softly, gently
pressing my teeth into his shoulder.
Knowing that I
haven't lost him, my heart is so full of love that I'm drunk on it. I
don't even need the wine.
Lucian picks up the
pace, and I blush in embarrassment as my bed gives protest.
Occasionally my headboard hits the wall. My neighbors must hate me
right now. Serves them right though. I can remember all the times
I've had to listen to them having sex. Now it's my turn. It's a silly
thing to think about, but that's apartment life for you.
“ Oh
yeah,” I whisper as I feel the friction building at my core.
“Don't stop.”
“ I
won't,” Lucian reassures me, clumsily kissing my lips before
returning his focus on the task at hand.
He bucks into me a
few more times before grunting out his release. My body follows suit,
my clit throbbing from my climax. I groan shamelessly, my toes
curling. So good.
Lucian stays on top
of me for a couple more seconds before rolling off and staring up at
the ceiling. I want him to pull me into his arms, but since he
doesn't, I turn to rest my body against him, wrapping my arm around
his waist. His breathing is labored, and I smirk in amusement at the
feel of his muscles moving beneath my hand. I was so worried that I'd
never get to experience this again. I'm glad that I can put that
thought behind me. We're better now. We have to be after this.
CHAPTER TWO
I spend the night in
Lucian's company. After having sex, we don't really move. We just lie
there and he strokes my back absentmindedly until we both pass out.
I wake up the next
morning with a smile on my face. I've dreamed about having Lucian
stay the night at my apartment for a while, and though the
circumstances weren't great, the experience was still more than I had
hoped for. We patched up our relationship, and now everything will be
alright.
At least I think
that until I roll over and find his spot empty. My smile instantly
turns upside down as I quickly pull my clothes on to see if he's in
the living room watching television. The thought that Lucian and
Janice may have crossed paths without me being around makes me
uncomfortable. I know that I shouldn't be jealous, but I just can't
help it.
The living room is
bare of his presence as well. His shoes are gone, and after checking
the bathroom just to make sure I didn't miss him, I realize that he
is too. He must have sneaked out this morning.
A bit disappointed,
I trudge back to my room to grab my cell phone. There are no new
messages, so I tap one out to Lucian to check on him. “You are
stealthy like a ninja. Just wanted to make sure you made it home
alright this morning.”
I sit on my bed and
wait for him to respond. After about ten minutes, I decide that he's
probably busy and will text me back whenever he gets time.
The day starts off
pretty boring, though I'm still floating on a high from being with
Lucian. I'm sad that he couldn't stay with me today. Lord knows what
he's doing. Hopefully, he's not working at Flesh.
I don't want to
think about that. It ruins things. And for now, I just want to
pretend that everything will be alright. For a while, it will
