Since I Saw You (Because You Are Mine #4)(102)



“Is this what you want from me, Lin?” he rasped, his pelvis smacking in a steady, hard-driving rhythm against the back of her spread thighs and buttocks. He looped his arm around her silky thigh in a snug hold and used his grip to increase the force of his deep thrusts. She was helpless to deny his consumption . . . his total possession. “You need it like this?” he persisted. His blood was boiling. He rode her like a man on fire . . . or with a demon at his back.

“Yes,” she grated out, her head coming off the pillow, her face tight with the sweet, harsh agony they shared.

She wanted him, all right. He could feel the inferno building in her. She wanted his cock. She was using him to quench a desire for another. The knowledge was a burr under his skin that he couldn’t ignore, despite his rabid lust. His need.

He cursed bitterly and pulled his furious erection out of the heaven of her. She gasped his name, sounding pained. His cock felt like it steamed in the cool air. He kicked off his shoes and jerked his pants and underwear off his legs, followed by his socks. His cock bobbed a furious protest when he glanced back and saw Lin’s splayed, pale thighs and her confused expression.

“Come here,” he said gruffly, reaching for her. She sat up, and he caught her around her waist. He felt the soft, warm bursts of her panting breath against his neck and the delicious spill of her long hair against the roughened skin of his arm. He grit his teeth in barely leashed restraint as he stalked down the hallway to the bedroom. He had this moment to blaze away all the ghosts, if only for tonight.

He set her on the edge of the bed and found the zipper at the side of her dress. It was the only thing he hadn’t taken off of her completely yet. When he’d removed the dress, her long hair spilled around her shoulders and down her arms. She stared at him with large, dark eyes, her mouth trembling slightly.

“It’s not fair, how beautiful you are,” he told her fiercely.

“Why?” she replied. “My body is yours. All of me is, Kam.”

His mouth twisted bitterly at her words. “All of you?”

Puzzlement crossed her face. “Yes,” she whispered.

He whipped off his tie and shirt, the only clothing he still wore. He opened the bedside table drawer and found what he wanted. Lin went still when she saw what he placed on the mattress near her: the bullet vibrator and a bottle of lubricant. Her gaze darted to his face.

“Up on your hands and knees,” he said quietly.

Up on your hands and knees.

His low, tense dare echoed in her head. She could say no, of course. She’d never once thought Kam would ever do anything to her that she didn’t want. But as she met his somber stare and listened to her wild heartbeat, she knew she did want it.

Even if this tumultuous, inexplicable night ended her relationship with him, she didn’t want to run. All of her life, she’d maintained control, carefully shielding herself from the storm of passion. She wanted to meet this cyclone full on, to take this risk.

It was irrational, but she wanted to be branded by him.

Holding his stare, she slowly started to turn on the bed. She saw his breath hitch at her compliance. Like he had the other afternoon, he pulled a pillow down the length of the bed and placed it in front of her. “You know the position,” he said from behind her.

Her mouth went dry. She lowered her cheek to the pillow, resting her shoulders on the surface of the bed, her ass elevated in the air. She’d felt vulnerable and excited when she’d taken the position the other night while he flogged and f*cked her. Tonight, the feeling of trepidation and arousal was doubled. Her muscles clenched tight. She swallowed thickly when she saw him pick up the bottle of lubricant and the vibrator.

He wasted no time, immediately turning on the vibrator. Her anticipation grew unbearable when she heard the clicking sound of him opening the bottle of lubrication. She gave a muffled moan when he placed the vibrator next to her clit.

“Try to relax,” he said gruffly behind her. “The more you let go, the more you surrender, the more you’ll enjoy it.” He grunted softly as he found her slit with his thumb and plunged it into her *. Lin whimpered in pleasure at the dual stimulation of the vibrator and his finger. “Stretch your hands over your head.” He used his free hand to part her ass cheeks. “That’s right. God, you’re beautiful.”

Lin clenched her eyes tight at the sound of wonder in his voice, but also just the hint of anger. Why had the fact that he found her desirable caused that edge to his tone tonight? Her question melted under the delicious buzz of the vibrator on her clit and his f*cking finger. It felt so good. She bit her lip to subdue a sharp cry when he pressed his other thumb to her *, this one lubricated. He circled it over the sensitive ring. She moaned shakily.

“Shhh,” he soothed. He penetrated her. She inhaled and held her breath. He grunted softly as he slid his thumb farther into her.

“Have you ever done this before?” he asked thickly.

“No,” she mouthed. She was so amazed by the sensation of his finger moving in such an intimate place, in combination with the stimulation on her clit and in her *, that she didn’t realize right away she hadn’t spoken aloud.

“Lin?” Kam prompted, making her eyes fly open.

“No,” she said.

He paused, his thumb completely embedded in her ass. Nerves she hadn’t known existed seemed to flame to life with the novel penetration. The burn on her clit felt extra sharp.
