we’ll just have to make up for it.”
He pulled her close, covering her mouth with his again. She closed her eyes and moaned as one sensation after another flooded her senses—the taste of his tongue, the roughness of his scruff against her chin, the feel of his strong fingers in her hair. All of those came together in an intoxicating blend that made her dizzy.
Almost with a will of their own, her hands slid down his neck, stopping momentarily to squeeze those powerful shoulders before continuing across his muscular chest. She let her fingers trace back and forth across his rippling muscles, enjoying the feel of so much strength and power there.
Declan pulled back with a throaty growl, effortlessly pulling her on top of his chest as he lay down. She let herself go, knowing he wouldn’t be doing this if he didn’t feel they were safe in the cave.
As she positioned herself comfortably astride him, she felt something nice and firm poking her in the tummy. “Why the hell did we wait so long to get to this point?”
He gently brushed her lower lip with his thumb. “Let’s stop worrying about all the stupid things that got in our way and just focus on the fact that we’re finally here.”
Hadn’t she just said the same thing a few minutes ago? So why wasn’t she doing it? She smiled and nibbled on his lower lip. “I can do that.”
He kissed her, his hands once again tangling in her hair, holding her close. She found his tongue with hers, moaning at how good he tasted. She rocked against him, unable to help herself. The friction of his hard-on pressing against her through his boxer briefs had heat pooling between her thighs, and she had to drag her mouth away from his to catch her breath.
Declan tilted her head back, nibbling his way from her mouth, along her jaw, and all the way to her ear, bringing sighs of pleasure from her. How did he know she liked to have her earlobes played with? He caught the right one firmly in his mouth as if to hold her in place—like she would try to get away—then let those big, warm hands roam up and down her body.
She groaned. “Let me take off my shirt. I need to feel your hands on my skin.”
He released her long enough for her to sit up and whip off her T-shirt. She dropped it onto the poncho beside them, then made quick work of her sports bra. She really wished she were wearing something sexier for their first time together, but Declan didn’t seem to mind. The moment she bared her breasts, his eyes began to glow. Between the cool air in the cave and the undisguised hunger on his face, her nipples were practically throbbing. Then he licked his lips, which only made her poor nipples tingle even more.
She sat back a little to give him a better view, and immediately noticed that his cock had hardened considerably since she’d stripped down to her panties. She could feel it wedged firmly between her thighs, rubbing perfectly along her panty-covered pussy.
If it felt this good already, what would it feel like when they were both completely naked? She glanced down and saw that he was almost there anyway. His underwear could no longer contain his erection—several inches were already peeking above the waistband. The part she could see was thick, long, and beautiful. She bit her lip to keep from moaning out loud. It was as if he’d been built just to please her.
She rested her hands on her thighs and wiggled back and forth on his cock, watching the dim light coming from the mouth of the cave play over his strong, muscular body. It was crazy that she was getting so hot already—they’d just been chased by hybrids only a couple of hours ago—but now that she’d figured out he was what she wanted, she wanted him badly.
He ran his hands along her inner thighs, causing her to shiver. “Do you know how beautiful you are?”
She snuck a finger down and traced it along the ridge on the underside of his exposed penis. “After a week in the jungle without a bath, makeup, or my straightening iron, I have to wonder about your judgment. But if you want to keep telling me, I certainly won’t mind.”
She teased the tip of his shaft with her fingertips as she continued sliding herself up and down his
