I jumped to my feet when the door swung open and people filled the room. Probably only five or six others came in, but the moment Levee entered the room, it felt like we were still in the middle of that sold-out arena.
We’d agreed to keep this thing with us on the down low for a while, so even though she was standing directly in front of me, she was completely unreachable in the room full of people.
Her face was slicked with sweat, and her makeup had begun to melt away. Tiny curls were frizzing from the top of her hair, boldly escaping what could only be described as hairspray’s death grip. But, as she stood in front of me in a tiny, black dress with desire filling her eyes, she was more gorgeous than ever.
It took every ounce of self-restraint I had not to pull her into my arms, but since my eyes were glued to hers, I had no idea who else was in that room or if they knew about us.
I did know they needed to get the fuck out.
“You were incredible out there,” I whispered, and a shy smile pulled at her lips. Dropping my voice so low that it was barely audible, I buried my hands in my pockets and bent toward her, saying, “Now, get rid of these people so I can strip you naked and show you what watching you on stage did to me.”
I backed up just in time to see her eyes darken, and a silent breath breezed through her parted lips. That simple reaction sent blood rushing to my cock and an intoxicating feeling I wasn’t ready to acknowledge yet spreading throughout my chest.
Levee held my heated gaze as she shouted, “Everyone out! I need a few minutes alone.”
The crowd continued to talk amongst themselves, but without a single question, the room cleared.
If we wanted to keep up the fa?ade, I probably should have followed them out then snuck back in, but I was more focused on the woman I was about to maul than devising an actual plan.
My heart raced.
Her nipples hardened.
My nostrils flared.
Her teeth grazed her bottom lip.
My fists clenched at my sides.
Her eyes flashed to my cock.
The door clicked.
Our bodies slammed together.
Her hands were in my hair as my mouth dominated hers. Moans and growls mixed in a symphony of desperation around us. I couldn’t wait a second longer. Palming her ass, I lifted her off her feet and backed her against the wall. Her legs wrapped around my hips and her arms folded around my neck in a frantic need to be closer. There was only one way to possibly do that though, and it required me to let her go and roll a fucking condom on.
I’d have given anything to rip her panties down and bury myself inside her wet heat bare. To lose myself in the moment and show her exactly how ravenous I was for her. I wanted raw and rough to quell the visceral need she made me feel when we were together.
However, I wasn’t putting her in that position yet. No matter what fucked-up pattern my chest was banging out for her, it was too soon to ask her to trust me that deeply.
Even if, in some ridiculous way, I already trusted her.
“Hold on,” I ordered, releasing my grip on her ass.
She clung to me as I kept her propped against the wall with my thigh between her legs. Her mouth attacked my neck as I raced to get the condom from my wallet in place. It wasn’t easy, but I was fucking her against the wall even if it killed me.
After barely getting my jeans down over my ass, I scooped her panties to the side. Finding them soaked, I bypassed all preparations and roughly drove inside her.
She cried out, but I gave her no time to adjust. I went wild.
I wasn’t gentle as I took what was mine, but I knew that it was what we needed as I gave her what was hers.
And that wasn’t just an orgasm.
It was me.
I never slowed in my hunt to possess her. Her nails dug into my shoulders as she rolled her hips against mine, forcing us both toward the edge of release.
No words were exchanged. Everything had been said as we both came on the gasp of the other’s name.
I’d claimed her. And, in turn, she owned me.
It was almost as exhilarating as it was terrifying.
Almost.
