It's All Relative

“Do want me?” she muttered, not even aware she was saying it.

With a ragged exhale, he rested his head against her chest, tantalizingly close to her breast. “Oh, God yes. Yes, I do.” His hands clenching her hips, he pulled her against him in a steady rhythm. Breathless, he muttered, “I want to be buried in you. I want to be consumed by you…”

“Oh, God…I want that too.” She lied back on the blankets, pulling his neck so he would come with her.

As soon as her back was against the floor, Kai lifted her hips and ripped off her shorts. Sitting back on his heels, he dragged his eyes over her naked body. Jessie could feel the heat from his gaze more than she could feel the warmth from the fireplace. As he pushed off his lounge pants, he shook his head at her. “I love how you care for me,” he whispered, reverently.

When the last of his clothing was discarded, he lowered himself over her. Holding himself slightly above her, he gave her a soft kiss. Jessie closed her eyes as his words washed over her. Partially reopening them, she ran her hands up his chest to his face. He was so beautiful. “I love the way you see me,” she quietly said.

Closing his eyes, he settled himself on top of her. Jessie could feel his hard body pressing against her, and she wanted to care about how disastrously far they were taking this…but she couldn’t. She wanted more. Kai ground his hips against her body as her fingers trailed along his ribs. His erection slid against the slickness of her and they both let out unrestrained groans.

Dropping his head to her shoulder, his hips continually pressing his ready body against the folds of her flesh, he whispered, “Stop me, Jessie…please…stop me.” His voice was strained, the ache in it palpable.

Tears in her eyes, Jessie shook her head. It was too late, far too late. She didn’t have the strength. “Kai…I can’t.”

He let out a fractured groan as they slid together. One small shift, that was all they needed. Kissing her neck, he muttered into her skin, “God, what you do to me…”

Jessie’s hands ran over every inch of his body that she could touch. She knew exactly what he meant by that. The fine line they’d been walking between friends and lovers…they were crossing it, right now. She couldn’t even bring herself to think of all the other lines they were crossing. Taboo lines. Lines that would normally be churning her stomach. But there was too much fire in her belly at the moment, and the ache between her legs was entirely too great. More. She needed more.

Jessie adjusted her hips when he rocked against her again, and they both froze when the tip of him slid inside her. “Oh God…you’re so warm, so wet, so perfect…” Kai’s voice trailed off into incoherent mumbling. Their bodies shook with restraint as they held that position, then Kai shifted his hips and moved to her side.

Jessie whimpered with the loss of him, and her hand drifted down to feel that wonderful length that she’d almost had inside her again. Kai closed his eyes as she wrapped her fingers around him. “God, I wish we could be together…” he murmured.

She leaned over to kiss his chest. “We are. Just touch me, that’s enough.”

He lifted his head to stare at her, and so much desire swirled in his features that Jessie almost didn’t need his touch to climax. Almost. As she began moving her hand against him, he ran his fingers between her thighs. His eyes never leaving her face, he inserted a long digit. Jessie let herself pretend it wasn’t his hand entering her, and she was overwhelmed with a burst of sensation. Closing her eyes, she let out a loud moan as she drifted away on the steadily increasing waves of euphoria coursing through her.

She urged his head to her breast with her free hand, and when his mouth finally closed over her nipple, Jessie wanted to scream as the ecstasy burning through her doubled. God, he knew just how to touch her. She tightened her fingers around the warm hardness of him, and her movements became more demanding. She wanted more from him. She wanted to give more to him. Kai groaned against her chest, and his searching fingers became more forceful, as well. Jessie cinched her arm around his neck tighter, pulling him into her as she cried out. His mouth sucked harder, his tongue over her nipple frantic.
