The Rules of Dating My Best Friend's Sister(64)

Holden’s eyes jumped back and forth between mine. “You’re really not engaged anymore?”

I shook my head and held up my ringless hand.

He stared at it for the longest time before taking a step toward me. “You’re not engaged anymore.”

“Nope,” I whispered. “Very single.”

He closed the remaining distance between us and put one hand on either side of me on the kitchen counter. Every nerve in my body zapped to life. It felt like I had an electrical current running through me.

“Tell me what this means for us, Lala. Tell me what you want from me.”

I swallowed. “You. I want you, Holden. And every which way. I want you inside of me more than I’ve ever wanted anything in my entire life.”

“Say that again…the part about wanting me inside of you.”

My chest heaved up and down. “I want you inside of me.”

His voice turned gritty. “Come closer. Tell me in my ear.”

I leaned in and whispered, “I want you inside of me, Holden.”

When I pulled back, a wicked smile spread across his face. He lifted his thumb to my mouth and traced the outline of my lips. “Do you want me in here?”

I nodded.

He pushed his thumb inside. “Suck.”

I closed my eyes and sucked hard.

When I opened, Holden slipped his finger from my mouth and traced a path down over my chin, along my throat, and kept heading south through the center of my body. When he reached between my legs, he dipped his hand under my skirt and rubbed two fingers over my panties. “Do you want me in here?”

I nodded, breathless.

His eyes gleamed as he bent and trailed his fingers even farther back. When he stopped at my ass, I felt a little panicked. Warren and I had never done that before. But I wanted to experience it all with Holden.

His finger pressed into the crack of my ass through my underwear. “How about here? Do you want me in here?”

I swallowed and nodded.

He smiled wickedly. “I’m going to leave marks. Everywhere.”

Oh God. I wanted him to do that, too. In the moment, I was pretty sure there wasn’t anything he could say that I wouldn’t agree to.

Holden lifted his hand to my face and cupped my cheek. “Are you sure about all of this? Because once I touch you, I’m not going to be able to stop, sweetheart. You need to be sure this is what you really want.”

My answer was to crush my mouth to his. Holden laughed between our joined lips. “I’ll take that as a yes.”

“Oh my God. Shut up and kiss me already.” I threw my arms around his neck and hoisted myself up, locking my legs around his waist.

“Yes, ma’am.” He grabbed my waist and hitched me up higher as he started to walk. In his bedroom, he sat me on the edge of the mattress and dropped to his knees before pulling back to look at me. “I don’t remember a time I didn’t want you, Laney Ellison.”

“I want you, too.” But when I reached for him, he caught my hand and kissed the inside of my palm.

“I need to taste you first,” he said. “I want you dripping wet when I slide inside of you.”

I held my breath as he bunched up my skirt and bent to place a gentle kiss over the front of my panties. If I wasn’t out of my mind with need, I might’ve been self-conscious that they were already soaked.

“You said you want me inside of you. But first you get my tongue.” He hooked his thumbs into the sides of my panties. “Lift your ass or they rip.”

I lifted, and he slid my underwear down my legs before nudging my knees apart. “Open for me. I want to see all of you.”

My knees fell apart shamelessly, but Holden guided them still wider. He licked his lips as he looked between my legs. “Your pussy’s even beautiful. Pink and perfect and so fucking wet for me already.”

Holden lifted my right ankle and placed it over his shoulder before settling between my legs. His very first touch was a simple flick of his tongue over my clit, and I almost jumped off the bed. It felt like he’d hit a live wire. He smiled up at me before sucking the bud into his mouth, and my hands wound into his messy hair.

“Oh God. Please don’t stop.”

I felt him smile against me. “A bomb could go off, and you wouldn’t be able to stop me. There’s no going back now, sweetheart.” He licked up and down my opening, his magical tongue pushing inside and exploring, then returning to focus on my throbbing clit. He hollowed his cheeks and sucked as one finger slipped inside and began to pump. When he added a second finger, I felt my body start to tremble. All of the muscles in my legs tightened as my orgasm built.

“Oh God,” I gasped. “Holden…”

“Say my name, baby. Say it again.”

He sucked harder, and his fingers thrust faster.

“Holden!” I was already about to come, and I tried to pull back. “Slow down.”

“No fucking way. Come in my mouth, sweetheart. Come all over my face.”

While my head wanted to rein things in and go slow, my body didn’t need to be told twice. I flew over the edge, crying out Holden’s name as he crooked the fingers inside me and hit a spot that made my entire body shake. I’d never had an orgasm explode like fireworks on the Fourth of July before.

After, I collapsed back on the bed, still panting. “Holy shit...”
