what if I wasn’t in this condition? Would you still let me stay there?”
He cupped my cheek. “I’d give you the world if you asked for it.”
My heart warmed with comfort. “You’re perfect.”
He chuckled. “Hardly. But I do try my best.”
He led me inside and into his room where I promptly stripped myself of my clothes. They smelled like blood and disinfectant, and I wanted to burn them more than anything. I tossed them into Ash’s hamper and crawled into bed, feeling his heated gaze against my body. And after sliding beneath the covers, I looked over at him.
Watching as he stripped down to his boxers.
I grinned. “Loving the view.”
He winked. “Trust me, I’ve got a better one.”
My cheeks flushed as he crawled into bed beside me. And together, we placed our order online for Chinese food. Lunch and dinner.
“Just in case we don’t leave to go get food or anything,” he said.
I snuggled against him as he sank beneath the covers. I closed my eyes and took a small nap against his chest, relishing the comforting heat of his body. I heard the doorbell ring and he shifted around. I peeled one eye open and moved off to the side, knowing it was our food that had arrived. Oddly enough, I wasn’t hungry, though.
At least, not for food.
“All right,” Ash said as he came back into the room, “we’ve got soup, lo mein, orange chicken, and white rice. We’ve got crab rangoons, extra fried rice, and sesame chicken in case you want some protein. I also ordered us some of those sugary donut things, and I’ve got a gallon of iced tea. I’ve also got some fruit we can put in it, if you’re into that kind of thing.”
I smiled at him. “Why don’t you come back to bed for a bit?”
His eyes found mine. “Aren’t you hungry?”
I licked my lips. “Not for food just yet, no.”
He mindlessly set the bag down before sliding back into bed with me. And as he rolled me over onto my back, I felt protected by his presence. His entire body cloaked me like a weighted blanket, and even though I figured it might hurt, it didn’t. His forehead touched down against mine, allowing me to breathe the air he afforded me. His lips brushed against my own, teasing me as my nipples puckered. I already felt myself becoming wet between my thighs. My clit swelled, my tight panties already brushing against its tip.
“Ash, please,” I whimpered.
His lips found my ear. “I’ll be gentle. I promise.”
I felt his open-mouthed kisses against my neck, and I groaned in satisfaction. My legs parted as he kissed along my chest, marking my breasts as his own. He raked his teeth down my stomach, making me jump as giggles fell from my lips. And when he finally seated himself between my legs, I peeked down at him.
Watching him, as his eyes darkened with lust.
“You smell divine,” he growled.
My head fell back to the pillow. “Do with me what you wish. I’m all yours.”
He nibbled at the excess of my inner thighs and it made me moan. He slid my legs over his shoulders, propping my hips up to feast upon my lower lips. He pulled my panties off to the side before his tongue softly lapped at my entrance. I heard him swallowing. Growling. Enjoying my taste. But when his tongue pierced my folds, he slid up.
Until he flicked the sensitive tip of my swollen nub.
“Oh, Ash.”
He sucked it into his mouth. “Mmmmm, Hannah.”
I gasped. “Oh, just like that. Oh, yes, baby. Mmm, so good.”
I slowly rocked my hips as his tongue flitted against my clit. My breaths came in short spurts as I gripped the sheets, holding on for dear life. His tongue grew thicker between my pussy lips. He pressed firmer against my clit. I rocked steadily against him, seeking out my pleasure as my eyes rolled into the back of my head.
And ironically enough, all the pain I felt in my body slowly fell away.
“Ash. Ash. Holy fuck, I’m so close. So close. Oh, yeah. Right there. Right there. Right—the—Ash!”
My legs pulled taut and my back arched. My hands gripped the sheets so tightly I heard them ripping away from the corners of the bed. His tongue lapped at my swollen clit as he swallowed down everything I had to offer him. Gulp by gulp. Until my back collapsed and my legs went limp.
Then, he kissed my tired pussy.
“I love you so much,” he
