her legs. Letting her thighs fall apart, she gently stroked herself.
Her lips parted, and her breathing became erratic.
She turned her head to the left and moaned softly, and her red hair spilled over the seat.
“Fuck yeah,” he whispered. His muscles tensed with his own desire. She was gorgeous.
He moved down and took over, sliding his mouth over her. She cried out and reached for his hair, pulling him tight against her.
He could feel her start to quiver, and his control snapped. He sat back and reached for his wallet.
Zoe’s eyes fluttered open.
In seconds, he had a condom on and her legs spread wide. “I need to be inside you. Wrap those sexy legs around me.”
She dragged him down on top of her. “Please,” she begged.
Ryder spiraled out of control with need. He wanted to possess every part of her. He nipped Zoe’s shoulder with his teeth, feeling the need to brand her.
When he slid inside of her he paused, letting out a string of curse words. The way her tight body gripped his cock made him groan, and he teetered on the edge. Her legs trembled as he went deep.
“So fucking good, Zoe.” He kissed and gently sucked her neck as he started to move, tasting the salty sweetness of her skin.
Listening to her soft cries and little gasps of pleasure pushed him to the edge. He grabbed her ass with both hands and pulled her tight against him, driving himself into her with short, quick strokes.
She made small sounds of passion deep in her throat, tossing her head from side to side.
“Tell me what you need,” he said, watching her pretty face as he moved inside of her.
“More,” she gasped, shuddering as she wrapped her legs higher around his back.
“That’s it, take me.” He closed his eyes as he drove into her.
“Please,” she begged.
“Say my name,” he demanded.
She shivered as he pressed his lips close to her ear. “I want to hear you scream it, baby,” he whispered.
Her body tensed around his cock, causing him to lose his breath.
“Ryder!” She arched herself against him, and he felt her shatter around him. She cried out his name over and over.
“Yeah,” he moaned. “Oh fuck. My sweet Zoe.” He buried himself deep within her and came hard, shaking with his own release.
Zoe stared at him, her eyes wide and her face flushed with passion. Her lips were still swollen from kissing. She looked beautiful.
“Did I make good on my promise?” he asked, stroking her cheek with his fingers.
“Yes,” she whispered. “Oh, yes.”
He grinned and gave her ass a gentle smack. “Come on. Let’s go in the house and you can clean up.”
CHAPTER 6
Once inside, he nodded to a door off the living room. “Washroom is through there. If you want to take a shower, I’ll bring you something of mine to wear for the night.”
“Thank you.”
She glanced around, blown away by the beautifully decorated living room. It was bright and spacious, with cream-colored walls and dark hardwood floors. All of the furniture was white and accented by black tables.
Zoe had never been inside a house this nice. Her parents were working-class, and she’d grown up in a modest home. If she had forgotten Ryder was a rich, famous hockey player, this house was a vivid reminder.
He came back into the living room and handed her a large Kingsnakes t-shirt. “This should work.”
“Thanks. Back in a bit.”
Zoe closed the bathroom door and slid slowly down it, landing in a heap on the floor. She hugged her knees to her chest.
The gorgeous man on the other side of the door hadn’t just taken her virginity. He’d likely taken her ability to enjoy sex with any other man and crushed it into oblivion. When he said she wouldn’t be the same, he wasn’t lying.
Zoe had never felt a desire to keep her virginity for “the one.” She’d gone on a few dates during high school and college, but she’d never wanted to have sex with any of those guys. They were attractive, but she hadn’t felt anything for them. Having sex with them just to get it over with seemed like a recipe for disappointment.
That bullet had been dodged with Ryder. The intensity between the two of them stole her breath and rocked her to the core.
He wasn’t like other guys she had met, who played head games to try and get what they wanted. He’d been upfront with her and didn’t sugar coat anything. He’d been straight with her, and she knew exactly
