Surrender (Seaside Pictures #4) - Rachel Van Dyken Page 0,58

whip cream. And the most gorgeous man in the known universe was lapping it up with his tongue.

Even his grunts were sexy as his tatted hands held my hips in place. I reached for him again, stroking his length.

The man had stamina.

That much was true.

We’d taken small breaks.

But he still wanted more.

And I wanted to give him everything.

How had this even happened?

“Mmm…” Drew’s mouth moved up my stomach. The cold hard granite counter bit against my back as I arched into him in greedy need. “…I think I like your skin more than the ice cream.”

“Oh, God.”

His tongue found a nipple. He was ice cold, and then he sucked. I wasn’t sure whether to smack him or ask him for more. “That feels—”

His tongue swirled, and then his instrumental hands dug into my hair, giving it a pull as he sat me up on the countertop where he’d just been licking me; it was as natural as breathing, wrapping my legs around his hips as he sank in again and then pressed me against the fridge as promised.

“Think we’re down to nine.” He panted against my neck as each thrust had me clawing at his back in an attempt to get closer.

I could hear the sound of things falling in the fridge with each push against the stainless steel.

And then he just pinned me there without moving, his eyes alight with amusement. “I’m too close. Sorry.”

“Yes…” I turned my head and tongued the sweat that dripped down his temple. “…please apologize right now.”

“Care to scold me?” He winked, and then he moved, hard, slow.

“What? You want me to call you a bad boy or something?”

“Fuck, I think every sexual schoolgirl fantasy just came to life,” he growled against my neck. “I think I’d like to be punished by you.”

I don’t know why, but I bit into his neck and then sucked, giving him a hickey as his moans filled the kitchen while he filled me. “Consider my mark your punishment.”

He cursed, and then everything went wild. We went from the fridge down the hall, me in his arms, him still inside me. “Not gonna make it.” He kissed me and then pressed me up against the hallway wall.”

“Drew!” I screamed out his name as we came in sync.

And when I finally caught my breath, it was for him to give me an awkward look as he very carefully pulled a picture of Braden’s first concert and flipped it over.

“He’s too young to see this.”

Glorious gurgles of laughter erupted, and I kissed him again. “We should sleep.”

“We should have more sex.”

“Dreeeeww.”

“Aw, that’s where Amelia learned it.”

I playfully smacked him on the chest. He captured my fingertips, brought them to his lips, and slowly pulled out of me, his eyes never leaving mine. “Are you saying I exhausted you?”

My legs wobbled as I nearly collapsed against him. “My body’s not used to it.”

“And it won’t get used to anyone else ever again.” A muscle clenched in his jaw, “Happy birthday, beautiful.”

“You said that already.”

“That’s because I get to keep saying it for another twenty-two or so hours. Hell, what time is it anyway?”

I yawned while he glanced at his watch and made a face. “We definitely went over curfew.”

I let out an exhausted laugh. “Bed.”

His eyes glanced toward the master bedroom. “Does that mean I get to sleep with you in your bed?”

“I think you’ve earned it.”

“Awesome, because I’m scared of the dark.” He walked past me and went into my bathroom then turned on the shower.

Good idea.

I quickly washed off, between Drew’s kisses, not that I was complaining, but part of me just wanted to be held in his arms.

And as promised, when we went to bed, he pulled me in against his body, wrapped his arms around me, and whispered, “Sleep.”

It had been years since I’d fallen asleep that fast.

I jerked awake around eight a.m. to find the bed empty, but the sliding glass door to my room partway open.

Drew was on his phone, his back faced me. “Nobody’s gonna find out.”

A cold chill hit me like a punch to the gut.

“No, I’ve been careful, all right? I really appreciate this. I owe you a huge favor in the near future.” He chuckled. “No, she has no idea, so keep that giant mouth of yours to yourself.” He laughed and then, “Yeah, see you in a few.”

I quickly hopped back into my bed and tried to look as if I’d just gotten up. I put my hands over my head
