Love In Moments (Love Distilled #2) - Scarlett Cole Page 0,48

moment, her palm on his chest. “Fearless,” she said breathlessly. “Watching you skate without holding back. It was beautiful.”

Beautiful wasn’t a word he’d been called often, but the sincerity that radiated from Olivia’s face struck something inside of him. Her words were tinged with envy. His little kämpe knew what she wanted in the world, but didn’t know how to go about claiming it.

He’d managed to wait until three dates had passed, and fuck, he’d have waited five, but he was relieved he didn’t need to. The feel of her body against his was everything he’d remembered and more.

The scent of her, the warmth of her breath against his lips, the anticipation of having her again buzzed through him. He tugged her mouth to his and, barely breaking for air, he poured everything he felt into the kiss.

With both hands gripping the hem of her jersey, he pulled it tight around her and held her close.

When she began to move above him, seeking what she needed, he rolled the two of them over and rose above her before settling between her thighs. The sigh that escaped from her lips reassured him she was okay with what was happening, but he needed to be certain.

“We made an agreement about dates and things, but you need to know you could get up and leave right now if you wanted to. I’m glad you are here, but I don’t expect you to be. Not yet, not if you aren’t ready.”

Olivia ran her hands down his arms and back again. “I’m ready for you, for this. And even if I’d had any last-minute jitters, the fact you just checked that I was okay would likely have won me over.”

When she wrapped her hands around his neck and kissed him, he couldn’t help but smile a little against her lips. “In that case, we’re going to need some things.”

He reached for the bedside drawer and tugged it open. Rising up onto his knees, he pulled the supplies he’d bought for this night.

“Condoms. Obviously. Lubricant, because we know this might take a while, and you know, it helps. And I don’t know how you feel about this, but you mentioned at Christmas that you used one on yourself and it always worked.”

He’d left the small vibrator in the package so she’d know he got it just for her.

Olivia looked away for a moment and took a deep breath. Worry flooded him that he’d been too prepared. That perhaps the vibrator had been something for her own personal pleasure. But when she looked back, tears hovered on the edge of her lashes.

“Liv. I’m sorry. We don’t have to use any of it, obviously, I was just trying to make things easier, less stressful for you. I did some research and it said—”

She reached for his face and pulled him down to hers, their kiss putting a stop to his words.

He’d remembered.

He thought ahead to get things that would make it easier for her to orgasm.

He’d freaking researched what to do to put her mind at rest. And for that alone she could love him.

“Thank you,” she murmured against his lips. She felt the stress release from his body. “This is incredibly thoughtful of you.”

Anders shrugged as if it had been no big deal. But for her, it was major.

“I just wanted you to enjoy this as much as we did at Christmas. And I thought this might be a way of taking pressure off you.”

“You have. You did. I’ve never used a vibrator in front of someone else, but there’s a first time for everything, right?”

He ripped into the packet and opened the vibrator to slip a battery in, before placing it on the bedside table along with the other things he’d bought. “Toys can be fun. And . . . stimulating. I like that you are open to playing with them together.”

“It’s not a mood killer?” she asked

“Definitely not a mood killer, Liv.” He lay down next to her. “Come here.” She moved into his arms, and he slid his thigh between hers. Surely he noticed her panties were damp.

Her skin tingled as he placed a row of soft kisses along the side of her neck, and she wiggled in his arms, pressing her core more firmly against his leg.

Anders encouraged the action by gripping her hip and gently pulling her back and forth. “Feel good?”

“Very,” she murmured against his mouth.

He bit her lower lip, teasing her. His dick throbbed against her thigh and she thought
