For the first moment, his touch stayed soft and sweet, as if he was cautious of not frightening her other side. She returned his kiss, licking into his mouth with her tongue for a second of torturous delight.
He waited, letting her explore before he took over, nibbling and tasting as if she were precious and fragile. Things rapidly heated up, and he kissed her far more hungrily. His mouth slid over hers in a sensual attack she had no way of escaping, and no desire to either.
When he nipped her bottom lip, she gasped, sighing with satisfaction as he eased the sting with his tongue. They were close enough she felt every inch of his muscular body.
He slipped one hand into her hair, the other down to rest on the upper curve of her butt, controlling her and holding her in place. It was impossible to keep from moving in response, undulating slowly, his cock hard against her.
Jim took his time kissing her, and it was lovely, and not nearly enough.
Then his target changed. His lips still nibbled and possessed, drifting along her jawline to her earlobe. He drove her wild, sending tingling sensations over her skin. His fingers dropped to the buttons of her shirt where he made short work of the tiny disks considering how big his hands were.
She clutched his biceps, the fabric of his suit smooth under her hands, but not what she wanted to caress. Even as he opened her blouse, Lillie flipped open his suit button and reached high to shove his jacket from his shoulders.
Jim raised an eyebrow. “I seem to have lost an article of clothing. Let’s level the playing field.”
His gaze dropped to the skin revealed by her open shirtfront. She shrugged out of the soft material, catching the shirt before it fell to the floor, instead tossing it on top of his coat.
She shivered under the intensity of his gaze as he took in her bare skin from waist to hairline, only the small bits covered by her lace bra still secret from him.
“Leave that on,” he commanded.
Orders now? Oh yes, please. This was going to be a delightful evening. And Lillie suddenly knew exactly how she wanted to begin.
She’d gone over the list of fantasies she’d mentally orchestrated over the years, scrolling through the lot of them and looking for her absolute favourites.
The trouble was most of those had involved mysterious men with blank faces. They’d been extraordinarily wonderful in terms of saying the right things, and doing the right things, but they hadn’t been real.
Faced with a very real, very solid grizzly bear who was staring at her as if she was delicious, none of the fantasies stood up to what she wanted to happen.
Which was fine, because she had said he could be in charge. Another lovely shiver tickled her from top to bottom. Exploring sex was always fun.
But until he did take over, she was going to play.
She caught hold of his belt in both hands. Pulled back on the leather and slipped loose the metal buckle. The long length came free with a sound like a soft exhale, or maybe that had been her. Carefully, she undid his button and lowered his zipper over the straining bulge.
Once again she couldn’t decide where to look. Tilting her head back meant enjoying all the emotions flickering across his face. Desire, heat, mounting frustration as she moved infinitely slowly to pull his cock free.
That? Was the other fascinating direction to stare. As she released his pants, his erection greeted her. Commando. Lillie swallowed hard, stroking her palms over his length. Soft skin and rising heat rubbed her fingers, a slight bit of moisture at the tip she captured with her thumb.
“You should see how big your eyes are. Like you just got the best present in the entire world.” Jim’s fingers were tangled in her hair, holding her so gently. “You don’t have to do this.”
“I’m pretty sure I do.” Lillie slipped up on her tippy toes and pressed a kiss to his rough jawline. “Last hurrah, and all that. I definitely have this on my to-do list.”
There were so many things she wanted, but with the thick length in her hands, his hips rolling slowly against her in a smooth rhythm, she could put the rest of them aside.
She dropped to her knees, the carpet warm under her.
It wasn’t good enough for him. “If I were a better man I would stop you completely, but since I’m nowhere near that good…”
He scooped her up. Lillie squealed, laughing as he carried her. His open pants slipped down his hips as he brought her to the couch. They collapsed in a tangle of limbs until he settled her on the floor between his legs, a soft cushion under her knees.
His cock rose from a thatch of dark hair. Straining upward as he eased his shoulders back against the leather sofa. “Now you can go ahead. Have a blast.”
He was joking, but she was honestly looking forward to having fun. She stroked him with both hands, increasing her pressure until he groaned, his eyes fixed on her, hands gripping the leather as if he were afraid to allow himself loose.
“I want to taste you,” Lillie whispered.
“Dessert now being served.”
