Country Kisses (3:AM Kisses Book #8)(41)

I head out and seal the door shut behind me, only to find Cassidy already in bed with her clothes off, the moonlight kissing her in all the right places.

“Now here’s something I can get used to.” I fall in beside her, my hand landing over her warm, bare hip. “My God, you are beautiful.” My fingers run up and down her smooth skin.

“My God, you are a liar.” She laughs while swooping in for a kiss. “You got that leash I’m going to tie you up with?”

I hold it up in my hand without hesitation. If she’s offering, who the hell am I to refuse?

“That’s what I like about you, Cade James. You follow orders.”

“That I do.” I lean back and take a look at her gorgeous body. A dark red tattoo fills the area around her belly. “I’d love to see this. You mind if I turn on the lights?”

“Only if you promise to keep them on.” She gives a sly wink. “It’s going to be an overexposed kind of night for you.”

I flip the bedside lamp on faster than she can change her mind.

“Wow.” I shed a mile-wide, shit-eating grin at the sight of her like this. “I’ve got my very own pin-up girl right here in my bed.” My eyes take their time soaking in her bare shoulders. Those sweet tits I’ve been drinking down for weeks stare back at me, just begging for me to take a quick bite, so I do.

“Down, boy. My tat’s just south of where you’re salivating.”

I pull back and trace a line down her torso until I hit that beautiful swirling rose inked over her belly button.

“Damn. You are insanely beautiful.”

“It’s beautiful,” she tries to correct before rolling over. “Got one on my back, too.”

Cassidy peddles her feet through the air as she lies seductively on her stomach. Her curls fall over one eye, and her red lips pout up at me. She’s managed to cover her scar with her hair, and it’s only then I realize this is by design. Cassidy has spent a lifetime mastering that very skill, but nonetheless, I’m mesmerized. For a second, I forget who I am and what I’m doing.

“Let’s see it.” I scoot over and note the pretty script font running down her spine, but my gaze drifts for a moment to that pert little ass of hers. How the hell did I get so lucky again? “Fly away home.” I trace the words with my finger as I read along, and she bucks and gasps as if she found this wildly erotic. I’ve never met a woman who was easier to please, so eager to have me, tie me up for that matter. “It’s lovely. What does it mean?”

Her lips press white a moment. “It’s the last thing my daddy said to me before he took off.” She takes a ragged breath. “I know it’s silly. It’s depressing as all hell. I don’t know why I did it. I can’t even see the damn thing. I guess I just wanted a piece of that moment.”

“You wanted a piece of him.” I bow a kiss to the top of her head. “It’s not silly. It’s not depressing. It’s full of heart. Just like you.”

She blinks back tears before pulling us both to our knees and evicting the shirt off my body. “You always know just the right thing to say.” She leans in and takes a hard bite from my left nipple.

A hard groan comes from me. “Was that a punishment?” I tease, tousling her hair.

“Oh, honey, that was a reward.” She gives a dark laugh, pulling that leash up between us like a threat. “Clothes off, James. Now.” She snaps it tight, and the slap echoes throughout the room like a gunshot.

In less than five seconds, I’m in the buff, and she has me bound by the wrists and tied to the bedpost with my stomach to the mattress, making me feel a little more vulnerable than I thought.

“You sure you don’t want me facing the other way, sweetheart?” I struggle to look at her from over my shoulder. “Sorry that came out a little more curt than I anticipated, but only because my ass isn’t one to typically be the star of the show.”

“Oh, sweetie, these tight little hot buns of yours deserve a show all of their own. I’m about to give each one of them the attention they deserve.” Cassidy licks a line down my back, taking a bite out of my left cheek so hard that it causes me to wince with pleasure.

“Okay, that was nice. You can flip me over now.” My breathing picks up pace. My hard-on practically embeds itself into the mattress, and if she doesn’t flip me over soon, I just might make a mess of things on my end.

“Done? Hon, I haven’t even started.” She continues her grazing, moving from left to right, sucking, biting, chewing, until I’m about to release myself from the post and go rabid over her body.

“Turn me over.” I try to keep my voice even-keeled, but it comes out harsh, demanding.

“Getting rough with me, huh?” Cassidy giggles up a storm, clearly enjoying the good time she seems to be having with my backside. Her tongue licks a line down me once again until she hits my balls from the other side.

“That’s it.” I unhook myself and spin around, and my cock springs up over her forehead.

“You slapping me with that thing?” She gives my dick a little smack as if to retaliate.

“No! Geez. Never. I swear it. I was just—”

That dark gurgle of hers comes back as she pushes me down to the mattress. “Relax, city boy. I’m just teasing. Did you like that sugar I was doling out?” Cassidy gets up on my hips, landing that wet, sweet spot of hers on my chest, and I push out a hard groan. “I think I’m ready for a little sugar of my own, if you know what I mean,” she bleats. Her hips inch upward until she’s seconds from my lips, and she spins that pretty little ass of hers over and kisses me with that wet slick I’ve been dying to taste all night long.
