Adrenaline (Speed Series Book 2)(2)
Ashley liked it fast and hard, but tonight, I wanted it to last a little longer and I wasn’t sure why.
“Slow down, Ash. I want to actually enjoy the feel of you.”
Her hands were on her breasts as she dropped her head and smiled. “Can’t . . . go . . . slow. Have a date.”
Grabbing her hips, I stopped her movement. “What? A date? You’re dating someone?”
Ashley shrugged her shoulders. “Not exclusively, we’ve gone out a few times. I have a phone date with him.” She wiggled her eyebrows as my mouth dropped open.
“You whore!”
With a dry laugh, she began grinding on me as she raised a knowing eyebrow. “When was the last time you f*cked a girl besides me?”
Without missing a beat, I replied, “Two nights ago.”
“So why am I whore, but in your mind you’re a stud?”
Shaking my head, I pushed my hips up, causing her to suck in a breath as she f*cked me again.
She dropped her head and said, “Okay, you’re a stud!”
I could feel her * getting tight. “Fucking hell, Ashley, I’m about to come.”
“Not yet . . . oh God. Malcolm! Now!”
Her body trembled as her orgasm hit at the same moment I exploded into the condom.
She dropped to my chest as we both fought for air. Our bodies slowly came down from the euphoria.
“God, I love f*cking you,” Ashley panted out. She placed her hands on my chest and pushed herself up. “I swear to God, if you’ve ruined it for me with other men I’m going to kill you.”
With a smirk and a wink, I replied, “I’m afraid once you’ve had a taste of the best, the rest will be a disappointment.”
Rolling her eyes, she crawled off me and walked her naked ass back into my bathroom. As much as I enjoyed being with Ashley, I knew we were going to have to scale it back. Emmit was bound to find out, especially with his little sister flying in to my ranch in a damn helicopter. Someone with loose lips was going to talk.
Two minutes later she came walking out in jeans and T-shirt with her brother’s car number on it.
“Seriously? You’re going to f*ck me and then come walking out with that *’s car on your shirt.”
With a wink, she grabbed her purse and phone and walked over to me. Sitting on the bed, she looked into my eyes. “Why do you think we do this, Malcolm?”
“Do what?” I asked.
She motioned between us with her hands. “This. The whole friends-with-benefits thing we have going on.”
“Because you’re good in bed, and I like the thrill of sneaking around behind your brother’s back. It’s a rush.”
Ashley tilted her head. “It’s a rush?”
“Hell yeah. It starts with that and top it off with hot sex, and it’s f*cking mind blowing.”
Ashley’s face dropped for one quick second before being replaced with a slight grin. “Yeah it is fun, but don’t you ever get tired of this life? The constant rotation of girls?”
I laughed as I shook my head. “No, I don’t. This is the life I want, Ash. I don’t want to be tied down to one girl. Besides, I’m incapable of loving anyone.”
Her eyes grew sad and I knew what she was thinking, but she was kind enough not to bring Casey up.
She looked down at her hands. “You remember Jon? The guy I was talking to? I kind of like this guy, Malcolm.”
I sat up and leaned against the headrest. “What?” I chuckled. “You said you weren’t looking for a relationship.”
“I’m not! Well, at least I didn’t think I was, but the whole time we were together tonight, I kept thinking about him.”
Ouch. That hurt the ego a bit.
“Well f*ck, Ashley, why didn’t you just call out his name for f*ck’s sake?”
She shook her head and frowned. “That’s not what I meant. As much as I like this thing we have, I think we need to take a step back from it. I’m feeling confused about my feelings for Jon, and as much as I love escaping reality and flying out to wherever you are for a fun roll around in the sack, I need to figure this out.”
Pursing my lips together, I nodded. I’d been thinking the same damn thing earlier, but to hear it coming from her mouth hurt more than I thought it would. “Okay. Will I see you again or was this it?”
Ashley chewed on her lower lip before giving me a sexier-than-hell smile. “Oh Malcolm, you’re not the type of guy a girl walks away from and never looks back.”
Before she stood, she leaned over and gently kissed my lips. “Thanks for tonight. I had fun.”
With a smile, I pulled her back to me and kissed her one more time. I never kissed the girls I f*cked, but Ashley was different. As much as I didn’t want to admit it, she woke something up inside of me and I needed to figure out what in the hell it was. “Let me at least walk you out.”
Her eyes sparkled as she stood up. “Okay.”
I quickly got dressed and placed my hand on her lower back as we made our way out and down to the helicopter pad. Ashley filled me in on the way about this Jon guy.
Stepping outside the door, I stopped and turned Ashley to me. “Hey, I know all of this has just been about having a good time, but I really do care about you, Ash. If this guy does anything to you, you’ll tell me, right?”
