Breaking Away (Assassins, #5)(59)

He groaned before taking her mouth with his, moving his tongue with hers in a way that had her toes curling in her pumps. She heard the jingle of his belt, and then he was thrusting inside her so hard that lights went off behind her eyes. She cried out as he continued to thrust up into her, her back slamming against something hard, but she didn’t care. Nothing mattered. The coldness, the hardness of the wall, nothing. All that mattered was Phillip. He was so hot.

Holding her thighs, he pounded into her in a way that made her have to cover her mouth with his neck to keep from screaming out. As she bit down on his neck, he squeezed her thighs as he changed the rhythm of his thrust, hitting just the right spot to make her squirm in his arms.

“Come. Come now, Reese, I can’t hold off much longer.”

“Oh God, I am,” she cried out at his demand. Digging her nails into his shoulder, she squeezed him with her climax as she tried to gasp for breath. His groans were music to her ears, his fingers biting into her, and his body hard against hers as he took what he wanted.

Which was basically everything.

He caught her mouth with his, thrusting once, then twice, before stilling, his breathing hot against her mouth as he tried to catch his breath. She ran her hands up his back, onto his neck, before tangling her fingers in his hair, bringing his head up so she could kiss him.

She didn’t want to like him. She didn’t want anything to do with him but, as her mouth moved with his, she wasn’t sure it mattered what she wanted.

“Please tell me you’re on the pill.”

“IUD,” she gasped out.

“That means you can’t get pregnant, right?”

“Yeah, why?”

“Cause I didn’t even try to get a condom. I needed to be in you. Sorry about that.”

She was worried for maybe a second before she shrugged her shoulders. “You’re clean, right?”

“Like a whistle.”

“Me too, so no harm done.”

“Good,” he said, moving his lips up her neck, the hair from his chin tickling her as he whispered, “Now tell me you brought him to make me jealous.”

She scoffed. “Please, I had no clue you were here.”

His hand slid up under her breast, his thumbs rubbing her rock-hard nipples in a slow, deliberate way. “Yes you did. You saw me. You walked in alone.”

How did you know that? She eyed him, and then asked, “The girl?”

“No way, you first.”

She smiled, hiding her face in his neck. “Fine, yes, I did.”

He let out a breath and squeezed her hips as he kissed her neck. “I owe Brooke and her girlfriend dinner. You should come.”

Reese laughed. “She’s gay?”

“Yup, but it worked. You were jealous.”

She smacked him playfully on the arm, a smile pulling at her mouth. “I was not.”

“You can’t even say that with a straight face!” he accused, kissing her lips.

“Whatever.”

“Don’t worry, I was jealous too.”

“Good.”

He laughed as he rolled his eyes. She bit into her lip as she looked into his eyes.

“Are we still being honest?” she asked. She wasn’t sure why she asked that. Was it the kisses? Was it the way he made her feel? She wasn’t sure, but she needed to admit something.

“Sure,” he whispered against her mouth, his nose moving softly with hers.

“I haven’t slept with anyone since we started sleeping together.”

His eyes went wide before he gave her the biggest shit-eating grin ever. “Oh really?”

“Yes, but that doesn’t mean anything. It just means I like having sex with you.”

“Why did you say you had?”

She shrugged her shoulders, looking away, but he took her chin in his hand, bringing her face back to him. She blinked, letting out a breath as she said, “I don’t know.”

“Don’t lie to me.”

“I can do that but really, don’t put too much into it. I just want sex.”

“So, you don’t want me for my fertile loins?” he asked, before taking her bottom lip with his teeth.

She pushed him away even though she wanted to melt into him. “Phillip,” she stressed.

“Okay, fine, fine, sex, you like sex with me, that’s it.”

“No, I like you, you’re a great guy, but really, Phillip, you have to trust that I am being real with you. I don’t do relationships. I don’t know how to love anymore. I just know I want to sleep with only you.”

“Okay.”

She eyed him and couldn’t help feeling that he thought she was bullshitting him. That he didn’t believe her. “I don’t want labels. I just want to have fun, but we are kind of screwed because everyone knows we are fooling around.”

“Reese, stop overthinking this. Let’s have fun. Let’s be us. No labels, no nothing… just fun. No one will say anything if we ask them not to. We’ll be fine.”

He obviously didn’t know her family but, before she could point that out, he captured her mouth with his. Slowly kissing her in a way that was still demanding. God, she really enjoyed his kisses. As he pulled back, still stealing kisses, he smiled before resting his head against hers. As she looked up into his eyes, she knew she was in trouble, but she couldn’t seem to push him away. She wanted him. She, in some way, maybe needed him. That scared her, but it didn’t keep her from pressing her lips to his and getting lost in his kisses.
