The power Kao has over me is no longer scary, but instead, freeing and safe.
His tongue brushes hard strokes against mine, and his teeth nip at my lips, making my stomach tighten with anticipation as my desire for him grows.
When his pelvis settles against mine, and I feel how hard he is, it causes an explosion of flutters in my abdomen.
I begin to tug at his shirt, wanting it off so I can explore the hard planes of his chest and abs. Kao breaks the kiss and grabbing hold of the collar, he yanks the shirt over his head.
My eyes instantly drop, and I feast on the sight of his muscles moving as he tosses the fabric on the floor.
How’s it possible that someone can look so… incredible. Even his abs line up in perfect blocks, and a sculptured V is visible from his low-hanging sweatpants.
Placing my palms on his shoulders, I brush them down over his chest, memorizing every dip and swell of his golden skin.
When my gaze meets his, and I see the sexy smirk, I let out a chuckle. “Don’t blame me for staring. You’re way too handsome for your own good.”
Kao’s grin just grows. “My turn.” I help him take my shirt off, and while I’m still throwing it to the floor, he’s already unsnapping my bra and pulling it off.
My eyes quickly dart to his face, and I watch as his lips part at the sight of my breasts. “Fucking, perfect,” he murmurs before he lowers his head and sucks my nipple into the warmth of his mouth.
Oh. God.
Soooo good.
I arch into him, and it makes him scrape his teeth over the hard bud. He pulls back and smiles up at me. “So much better than vegetables.”
I let out a burst of laughter, and then Kao’s hand covers my breast, and he begins to massage me. “You’re a perfect fit.”
I bask in the compliment as my hands move to his toned back.
Kao’s mouth finds mine, and as the kiss intensifies, his touch grows harder until it makes me feel feverish with want for him.
My hands drop to his ass and gripping him hard, I try to push him down on me. Instead of getting my wish, Kao lifts himself slightly, and his hand leaves my breast. I’m just about to protest when his hand dips under my sweatpants, and I feel his fingers brush over my sensitive flesh.
His lips knead and nip at mine with such fervor, it feels like I’m going to burn up from the heat he creates in me.
Kao spreads me, and the moment his finger brushes over my clit, my body jerks at the sharp sensation of pleasure it causes.
I bring my left hand up to his jaw while I push my right hand under his sweatpants so I can feel his skin as I grip his ass.
Kao breaks the kiss, and his eyes lock on my face. He stares at me with so much concentration, and I’m just about to start feeling awkward when the corner of his mouth lifts, and he whispers, “There you are.” I begin to frown, but then he explains, “If I stare long enough, the blurriness fades a little.”
His eyes caress my face with so much love it makes a lump swell in my throat. Before I can get emotional, his hand moves down, and he pushes a finger inside me.
My lips part on a silent gasp at the intense feeling of having Kao touch me so intimately for the first time.
I move my hand behind his neck and pull his mouth back to mine as he begins to slowly thrust his finger inside me. When our tongues touch, Kao presses his palm down on my clit, and I moan into his mouth.
His touch grows harder, and when I begin to feel a tightening in my abdomen, I spread my legs wider. Then he stops abruptly, and I let out a frustrated groan.
All I get is a chuckle as Kao breaks the kiss.
KAO
I’m pushing my limits, but needing Fallon, I grab hold of her sweatpants and panties and drag the fabric down her legs.
I watch as her eyes widen when I take off my own sweatpants. Not wanting her to get nervous, I say, “No penetration. I just want to feel you.”
She nods quickly. “I’m okay with us having sex, though.”
I move back over her, and when I press down on her, and I feel her heat and wetness, my body shudders from the pleasure. “Fuck, so good.”
I lower my head to her breast and suck hard on her nipple while my right hand kneads her skin over her waist and ribs. I leave a trail of kisses to her neck as I begin to rub my cock against her pussy.
Fallon’s hands move over my back until she reaches my ass again, and her nails dig in as her legs fall open, giving me full access to her.
The temptation almost strips me of all thought and reason, but I manage to cling to my self-control, wanting to make love to her this weekend.
When my gaze settles on her face again, Fallon says, “If you take my virginity now, we can get the uncomfortable part out of the way and enjoy the weekend.”
I stare at her as surprise ripples through me, and it takes a moment before I can ask, “Virginity? You’re a virgin?”
Fallon lets out a chuckle. “Why does everyone think I’ve had sex already? Even the girls were shocked when I told them the other day.”
“Because you’re so fucking gorgeous,” I state. “Not that I’m complaining.”
God, she’s going to be all mine.
I’m filled with incredible pride and honor that I’ll be her first.
Fallon raises an eyebrow at me, and when I still don’t say anything, she tilts her head. “Yes? No? Now is not the time to overthink things.”
A wide smile stretches over my face. “I was enjoying the fact that you’re all mine.”
“Oh.” She brings a hand to my jaw, and being the practical, control freak I love so much, she says, “I’m on the pill. Can we skip the condom? I don’t want to lose my virginity with rubber between us.”
I let out a silent chuckle. I’m just about to answer her when there’s a knock at my door, and it has me shouting, “We’re sleeping. Go away!”
Fallon begins to laugh under me.
“Did you take your eye drops?” Noah yells back.
“Yes. Go away.”
I hear him laugh, and it only makes Fallon laugh harder.
Glaring at her, I say, “This weekend can’t come fast enough.”
“Remember your eye shields,” Noah yells again.
“Fuck off,” I shout before I drop my forehead to Fallon’s shoulder.
I finally get her naked, and then this shit happens. With the moment obliterated by Noah, I move off of Fallon and lie down beside her. “I swear, it’s like living with a bunch of kids, and we haven’t even had sex yet.”
Still laughing, Fallon snuggles into my side, and then she begins to draw lazy patterns on my chest. “I bet I can get you back in the mood.”
“Oh, yeah?” I grin.
Her hand brushes a hot path down my chest and abs, but then she first stops to caress the V running down from my hips before her fingers wrap around my cock. She pushes her upper body over me, and then her mouth is on mine.
That’s all it takes for my cock to recover from the mood-killer Noah caused.
Taking hold of her hip, I push her onto her back and wanting her to orgasm, I drop kisses on her body as I move down. My shoulders force her legs to spread open, and then I press a kiss to her neatly trimmed curls. When my tongue swipes over her clit, I feel her thighs quiver. The taste of Fallon explodes on my tongue, and wanting more of her, I suck hard on her clit until her ass begins to lift off the bed. I stop for a moment to glance up at her, and seeing that she’s covered her face with a pillow, a grin tugs at my lips.
I begin to alternate between sucking and licking, and soon Fallon’s hips are bucking. When her body tightens, and she begins to shudder, I move my hand to her pussy and massage her clit to make the orgasm last. I press a kiss to her abdomen, and only when she pulls the pillow from her face, gasping for air, do I crawl back up her body and crush my mouth to hers so she can taste herself on my lips.
After Fallon’s come down from her orgasm, her hand moves down my side, and she wraps her fingers around my cock again. She s
lowly begins to stroke me, but wanting her to be comfortable, I move onto my back and pull her half over me.
Fallon grins up at me, and then she tightens her hold on my cock. Pleasure ripples through my body, and unable to stop, my hips begin to thrust into her hand. “So, fucking good,” I groan. “Don’t stop.”
Taking hold of her jaw, I lift her face to mine, and I crush our mouths together.
I feel her breasts pressing against my side and chest, our skin slick with sweat and desire.
Fallon begins to pump my cock faster until I’m gasping into her mouth. “Fuck, I’m going to come all over your hand.”
I thrust harder into her fingers, and then my body tightens before pleasure shudders through me.
Chapter 23
FALLON
After we cleaned up, we get dressed, and then I help Kao with his eye drops. I have a silly grin plastered on my face.
My first sexual experience with Kao… with a man, and it was perfect even though we didn’t have intercourse.
While we wait between eyedrops, I say, “I wonder if it will be sore.” When a frown forms on his brow, I explain, “Intercourse. For the first time.”
Kao takes hold of my hips and presses a kiss to my stomach, then he tilts his head back again. “We’ll just make sure you’re well prepared.”
“Hmm.” I let out a chuckle. “Like earlier, when you went down on me? For future reference, I loved that twirly thing you did with your tongue.”
Kao shakes his head. “There’s no doubt you and Jase are family. You have no filter.”
“Being direct is the best way,” I murmur as I lean over him. “Open your eyes.” He does as I ask, and I put in the last drops. “All done.”
I sit down next to him and rest my cheek against his shoulder. “I can’t wait for this weekend.”
“That makes two of us.”
When the minute is up, Kao blinks a couple of times, and then we get up. The moment he opens his door, I let out a bark of laughter. “Someone stuck a piece of paper to your door.” I yank it off and read, “For the love of God, do not disturb. They’re ‘sleeping’. God knows they need to get rid of all that tension.”
“Noah!” Kao barks while trying to keep his laughter in. “Did you put the note on my door?”
“It was Jase,” he instantly calls back.
“Fucker,” we hear Jase mutter. “You didn’t hesitate to give me up.”
As we walk down the hallway, I hear Noah say, “I’m more scared of Fallon than you.”
Walking into the living room, I crumple the paper and throw it at my cousin while muttering, “Little shit.”
“Ask Mila, there’s nothing little about me,” Jase sasses me.
“I don’t need to know that,” I gasp as I walk to the fridge to get some water.
“I’m bored, and I don’t want to study,” Jase whines.
“Watch a movie,” I say before I take a sip. As I swallow, I hold the bottle out to Kao so he can have some.
“Honestly, I’m tired of being inside,” he mutters.
I try to think of something we can do but with the scars, I have no intention of going out in public. “Take Mila on a date.”
“Babe?” Jase yells as he gets up from the couch. “Wanna go out for dinner?”
I hear Mila answer, “We can order in. I need to bring Fallon up to date with the work she missed.”
“Talking about work,” Noah says. “Come sit your ass down. We have a test to study for. The professor said he’d let you do it verbally.”
“That’s good and bad news,” Kao mutters. He hands the water back to me and presses a quick kiss to my lips before he goes to sit with Noah.
I walk down the hallway to where Jase is sulking, and Mila is glaring at him. “Sorry, Jase. Guess you’ll have to entertain yourself.”
“Ouch.” He slaps his hand over his chest. “So cold.”
Mila darts back into their room to get her laptop, then comes out and asks, “Want to work in your room?”
“Sure.”
Jase walks to Hunter’s room while Mila and I slip into mine. We make ourselves comfortable on my bed, and before she can open her laptop, Jade comes to join us. “Jase and Hunter are studying. Let me help.”
Hana walks past my open door, then she backtracks and asks, “Did I miss the memo that we’re getting together?”
“No,” I answer with a burst of laughter. “Mila’s helping me catch up with work, and Jade’s just chilling. Wanna join us?”
She comes in and shuts the door behind her before climbing on the bed to sit next to Jade. “So? What happened?”
Pretending I don’t have a clue what she’s referring to, I ask, “With?”
“You and Kao were in his room all afternoon,” Jade comments, wagging her eyebrows at me.
“We were sleeping,” I tease them, knowing they’re dying to hear the details.
“Dammit, woman. Are you still a virgin or not?” Hana snaps.
I shake my head, and their eyes begin to widen, and then I say, “Afraid I’m still one.”
“Holy shit,” Jade gasps. “Kao has some serious self-control.”
“Nothing compared to Jase,” Mila mutters. “He almost drove me insane for a month.”
“Or is it because you want to wait?” Hana asks, her eyes sharpening on me.
“Oh no, I offered it to him on a golden platter,” I quickly put her worries to rest. “It’s because we live with a bunch of children.”
Mila begins to chuckle. “I told Jase not to put up that note.”
“We’re going away this weekend,” I drop the bomb. My friends stare at me, and it has me explaining, “Kao and I. He’s taking me to Rancho Valencia in Rancho Santa Fe.”
“I’ve heard that place is off the charts beautiful,” Jade comments.
“Yeah, I’ve been once with my parents for a long weekend. There’s tons to do,” Mila adds.
“As if they’ll even leave the bedroom,” Hana chuckles.
“Whatever we do, I’m sure it will be fun,” I say, a mischievous grin on my face. “Honestly, I’m just excited about spending time with Kao.”
“Okay, let’s get some work done,” Mila says, opening her laptop.
KAO
Fallon checks the contents of our weekend bags for what must be the hundredth time.
Taking hold of her arm, I pull her onto my lap where I’m sitting on the bed. “If we forget something, we can just buy it there.”
She checks her watch, then asks, “What time is the helicopter coming again?”
A smile curves my lips. “Five.”
“That gives us twenty minutes,” Fallon mutters, her mind probably racing over her mental list of things to do before we leave.
My phone starts to ring, and as Fallon gets up from my lap, I reach in my pocket for the device. Seeing Dad’s name flashing on the screen, I answer, “Hey, Dad.”
“Sorry, I didn’t call yesterday. I was stuck in a meeting until eleven at night.”
“Damn.” A frown forms on my forehead. “Is everything okay at work?”
“Yes, it’s just the annual budget meeting. How was your doctor’s appointment?”
I relax when I hear I don’t have to worry about Dad, then answer, “It went well. Dr. Hodgson is happy with the progress I’m making.”
“How's your sight?”
In the background, I hear Mom asking, “Is that Kao? Put him on speakerphone.” A couple of seconds later, she says, “Hi, sweetie. How are you feeling?”
“I’m much better. If I focus for a bit, the blurring fades a little.”
“That’s great news,” Dad says. He gets excited about every minor step I take forward.
“How’s Fallon?” Mom asks.
My gaze darts to Fallon’s, and I grin. “She’s good. I’m taking her away for the weekend. Speaking of which, we have a helicopter to catch at five.”
“Oh good, now we don’t have to worry about the two of you on the road. Where are yo
u taking her?” Dad asks.
“Rancho Valencia in Rancho Santa Fe. I booked a villa.”
“Aww… my son the romantic. At least I did something right,” Mom coos. “I hope you have a wonderful weekend.”
Then Dad says, “Don’t forget to use protection. I’m too young to be a grandfather.”
Fallon lets out a snort, and she quickly covers her mouth.
“Don’t worry, Dad,” I chuckle. “I have to go. Love you both.”
After a chorus of I love you’s from my parents, I hang up then shake my head. “Well, that just happened.”
“Grab the bags,” Fallon chuckles. “I want to get out of the suite and have you all to myself.” She walks to the door, then pauses. “We have everything, right?”
“Definitely. You checked a couple of times,” I assure her as I pick up the luggage.
“Your eyedrops?”
“Yep.”
“Your eye shields?”
“Yes.”
“Meds for migraines?”
“Fallon,” I stop in front of her and press a kiss to her lips, “Let’s go.”
“Okay.” She lets out a breath, and her eyes scan over the room before she walks out.
God, I love my girl.
We finally leave the suite and walking out of the building, we make our way to the helipad situated next to the security booth by the main gates.
Fallon lets out a happy shriek as she climbs into the helicopter. I load the bags first, then climb aboard. Sitting next to her, we put on our headphones, and then I take her hand and hold it on my thigh.
The pilot announces that we’re taking off and when we start to lift my stomach drops. Fallon’s smile grows as we get a one hundred and eighty view of the campus before we fly away.
I dare a quick glance out of my window, and seeing the mountains down below, I quickly jerk back.
God, I hate heights.
I turn my face to Fallon and watch as she takes in the view below. Bringing our hands up, I press a kiss to her knuckles.
Thirty minutes later, we descend at Rancho Valencia. Thank God we made it in one piece. Taking off the headsets, I get out first, then help Fallon out. Grabbing our luggage, we begin to walk toward the reception area. A concierge comes rushing toward us and takes the bags from me.
