Entice (McKenzie Brothers, #4)

And then he starts moving and all thoughts fly out of my head and I just feel.

Lucien dips his head and captures my lips in a long slow kiss. I’m sure he’s trying to tell me something but before it really sinks in, he’s pulled away and is lavishing my breasts with his tongue. When he sucks my nipple into his mouth, my * clamps around his cock in pleasure.

He trembles against me.

My nipples are really sensitive because of the pregnancy and I’ve just discovered a livewire straight to my core.

Switching to my other throbbing nipple, he sucks and swirls his tongue around it causing me to arch up into him. As he grinds against me, I fly apart in his arms. I vaguely hear him grunt against me while I’m flying.

Lucien brings me slowly back to earth with gentle kisses over my chest and collarbone before he slips out of me and pulls me into his arms. Holding me tight he kisses me on my forehead.

We stay silent and allow our breathing to get back to normal.

I feel as though my heart is about to burst out of my chest. All my nerve endings are alive and buzzing after that. The only problem I have now is with me being wrapped in Lucien’s arms, I can’t wipe the tears from my eyes without him knowing there is something wrong. Well, there isn’t really anything wrong, it’s just that having him make love to me like he just did instead of hiding behind me, makes me so happy. Lying together like this, I can hope that, perhaps, there is a future for us. A future that involves us having a normal relationship without Lucien worrying that I’m going to walk away from him.

“You’re thinking too hard.”

“That was the first,” my voice cracks, “time.”

“I know.”

He rolls over to his back.

“Things are changing. I don’t do change well.” He kisses me on the shoulder before rolling out of bed, his long sleeved tee shirt still in place as he walks into the bathroom and closes the door.

I’m left floundering.

After what we’ve just done, he could have stayed in bed longer. He could have sat next to me while I eat the goodies he’s left me, like he’s done the past couple of mornings. Lucien did warn me that he needs time. I just hoped he planned on spending that time with me, not off on his own beating himself up for reasons only he knows.

On a sigh, I sit up and rearrange the pillows behind me so I can get something in my stomach before it decides to rebel.

Finishing up the fruit, Lucien walks back out of the bathroom, fully dressed in jeans and another long sleeved tee shirt with his hair still damp from his shower and gives me a quick look in passing as he slips his watch onto his wrist. Collecting his wallet and keys from the table, he gives me another glance before he opens the bedroom door. “I’m going to get some breakfast. I shouldn’t be long, and then we’ll go and visit your mom. She’ll be around, right?”

I nod.

He pauses before he says, “Okay, see you soon,” on his way through the apartment.

What the hell just happened!

I’m angry now. There was no need for him to leave like he just did without a proper word to me. I know we are new and it’s going to take time for us both to adjust to being with each other, but, well, that was damn well rude. We are going to be having words when he returns.

***

My mood is definitely raw and the headache that is starting is definitely from my anger with Lucien. He has done nothing but frown since arriving home after breakfast. He’d been gone just over an hour, which was long enough for me to get up and ready. But as soon as he walked in, I knew his mood from when he left hadn’t lightened any, but it had darkened to the point that he could barely say two words to me without snapping my head off. So I’d done what any sane person would do and kept my mouth shut even though it pissed me off.
