before returning again to the depth of his mouth, tasting him, devouring him. The back of her knees hit the bed, and they tumbled onto the plumped quilt, a tangle of arms and legs.
Beneath him, she felt even better than before, a soft place on which to land.
He cocked one elbow on the bed and lifted his head to admire her spread before him. Her hair spilled in a satin halo about her head, fiery strands catching the moonlight. Lips glistened below eyes pooled with need. He felt himself grow harder even as his heart softened with tenderness for this beauty in his arms.
Here was a woman the way God intended her.
Lush, soft and made for a man’s hands.
Dez trailed a finger down the silky skin of her throat to the lace holding a small, plump breast.
“Oh,” she inhaled, closing her eyes before opening them again as he teased the softness at hand. The green depths of her eyes shimmered with vulnerability and need. “That’s so nice.”
He slid his thumb over her erect nipple, earning a gasp. “Just nice?”
Not a man to settle for “nice,” he bent his head and sucked her nipple into his mouth through the satin.
“Oh,” she moaned, her hips automatically lifting, inflaming him, teaching him to play with fire. His erection lay hot and heavy in the curve of her hip and the rocking motion unfurled fully the desire curled inside him.
He increased the pressure of his mouth, not caring he might damage the fine lingerie, as his other hand found her other nipple and played it through the satin.
Eleanor’s hands grasped his shoulders, wandering frenzied along his back, pressing him ever nearer to her.
“Beautiful, beautiful,” he murmured, lifting his head, sliding his lips along her throat, inhaling her scent, tasting her skin. He found her lips again and she sighed before tangling her tongue wildly with his.
Minutes ticked by as they allowed passion to fill to the brim, slosh over, dampening them until they forgot time.
Eleanor’s hands pushed at his chest and reluctantly he lifted his head from the stiff nub he’d laved with attention.
“Gotta get out of this,” she said, pushing away the errant strands of hair stuck to her cheeks and reaching for the clasp on her bra. Seconds later, her breasts were free.
And ready for his pleasure.
Oh, and it was his pleasure.
He caught a rosy erect nipple and tortured it with his teeth and lips until Eleanor writhed. Moving his head to its twin, he gave equal attention, pleased with her sighs, with the way she stroked his shoulders and held him to her.
“You are so beautiful,” he murmured against the plumpness, sliding his lips lower to her soft belly, ringing her navel with his tongue.
“Oh, my,” she muttered, head thrown back, hips grinding now against his chest.
“Yes, oh, my,” he murmured, one hand sliding down brushing the angular bones of her hips on a journey to her thighs. “‘Oh, my’ is exactly right,” he said, tugging the lace at the top of her panties with his teeth.
“Dez,” Eleanor moaned, moving her hips. “Please.”
He lifted his head, glancing at her as she writhed against the half-dozen fluffy pillows on the bed and felt satisfaction. Yes, this was what this woman needed. Certainty made a home in his gut...right next to the lust raging a bit lower. He wanted to sink inside her, bury himself to the hilt within her body, but not yet. No, not yet.
Eleanor needed more.
Trailing his fingers slowly up her thighs, he brushed against her damp heat, inhaling her scent, feeling the need balled up inside her, matching his own.
“Dez,” she said, pushing against his shoulders.
He chuckled, dropping kisses along the sensitive skin above her panties. “Just trying to take ‘nice’ to ‘hot damn.’”
Hooking his fingers on either side of her panties, he slowly pulled the satin from her skin, sliding the sexy bit of nothing down her thighs so he might reach the sweetest part of her. Teasing her with small kisses for several minutes, he finally tasted her.
“Hot damn, hot damn,” she moaned, tightening her fingers around his head, holding him in place as he continued to taste her, to love her in the most intimate of ways.
“Exactly,” he said, sliding over her, dropping between her thighs, pulling her bottom to him, lifting her so he could render her speechless.
Didn’t take long before she shattered against him, her cries bouncing off the tasteful ecru walls as she came completely undone.
