The butterflies in his stomach and the activity in his pants made him want to either lay her out on the bar and have his way with her, or run. He wrapped his hands around his beer bottle because they were shaking. He could feel sweat building up around his hairline. He hated having all these feelings and not having a clue what to do with them. “Sorry. I just thought of something I have to do.”
He started to stand up and Madison put her hand on his arm and looked up into his eyes. A warm flush filled his entire body and he was afraid if he didn’t get away from her soon that she’d be able to see exactly what she was doing to him. She looked around, to make sure no one was near, he thought, and then lowering her voice she said, “I’m a big girl, Lion. I see the way you look at me. I know how good we are together. If you don’t want any more than that, I’m totally okay with it. But…why are we resisting something that could make us both feel so good in the meantime?”
Lion could hardly catch his breath. He really had every intention of walking away. She said she was okay with it, but he just didn’t see her as the type that went around having casual hookups. More so than how she was feeling, the way he was feeling scared the shit out of him. Madison didn’t seem “casual” to him, and it was his own heart more than hers that he was trying to protect. But when his eyes locked onto her soft brown ones, all rational thought left his head, and he couldn’t think, just feel.
“You have a room?”
Madison took a sip of her tea, smiled, and said, “I’m using the last one on the right. Meet me up there in five?” Lion swallowed the lump in his throat and nodded. His body and his head were at war…but his head had already lost this battle, and it was so focused on Madison that five minutes later, he didn’t see the man standing in the shadows near the back door, watching him go up.

Madison opened the door as soon as Lion knocked, pulled him inside, and closed it behind him. He thought maybe he’d double-check with her, and make sure she was really okay with a casual sex relationship…but then she dropped the towel she was wearing and his brain shut off. He wrapped an arm around her and pulled her gorgeous body into him. Kissing her, hard, hot and passionately, he walked her back toward the bed. It was only when he dumped her back down onto it that he realized she was still wearing her sandals. Lion dropped to his knees next to the bed and taking one foot into his hand, he slowly released the straps and slid the sandal off her foot. Then he did the same with the next one, but that time when he dropped the shoe, he bent forward and kissed the smooth, soft skin over her tightly toned calf. She shivered and he began to kiss his way up, stopping short when he got to the top of her thigh, and then starting on the next leg. He inhaled her lusty, sexy scent when he got to the top of her second thigh and couldn’t resist a lick that caused her entire body to tighten, and she let out a loud gasp. He wanted to taste her, but he wanted this to last a while, since he wasn’t sure when, if ever, he’d have her again. He slowly slid up her body, back toward her sexy lips. She brought her hands up and weaved her fingers through his wild hair. Lion cupped her face with his hands and let his own fingers wrap around the silken dark strands of hair that framed her beautiful face. His lips hovered just over her sweet soft ones and she smiled just before he plunged his tongue back in between them. Her mouth was so hot and wet and sweet, and he caressed her tongue with his, and explored every inch of it. His right hand left her face and traveled down her neck, and shoulder, and then the soft, welcoming curves of her body.
He ran the hand down across her waist, and then over the flare of her hips. Her body arched up and he slid his hand underneath her and spent some time caressing her full cheeks. Madison’s body was so responsive to every one of his touches. She writhed and moaned and arched up to get closer to him, to rub her soaked pussy against his body. Lion moved his hand back up her body and used his left hand to hold himself up as he used his left to cup one of her breasts. His thumb and forefinger wrapped around her rock-hard nipple and she let out a soft cry as he began to roll it between them. Her hands went to his t-shirt and she began to pull at it, almost as if she was trying to rip it off. Reluctantly he let go of her long enough to pull it over his head and toss it aside. He leaned down and took the hard nipple in between his lips and she gasped loudly and grabbed his hair again. Madison was arched off the bed and she was pressing his head hard into her chest as he pleasured her with his mouth. He knew she was enjoying it by the mewling sounds she was making, and the fact that she was tugging his hair almost out by the roots. She seemed to take as much as she could, and her hands left his hair and traveled down to the front of his pants. She was pulling at the button frantically before finally saying in a breathless voice:
“Take them off.” It wasn’t a question. It was a demand, and it was hot. Lion once again had to force himself to take his hands off her. He stood up and she watched him with a heat in her eyes almost so intense that he could feel it. He slipped off his boots and then slid off his jeans, taking a condom out of the pocket before kicking them away. Then her big eyes widened more as he pushed his shorts down. Before he even rose up all the way, she had a firm grip on it. Lion groaned and arched his back, letting her stroke it and explore with her soft, warm hand as if she’d never touched it before. He was afraid he was going to lose control, so he finally pulled back and lowered himself back to his knees at the side of the bed. He slid an arm underneath her hips and slid her so she was sideways and one of her legs dangled off the bed. He ducked underneath the other one and rested her calves on his shoulders. She gasped when he leaned in and took another breath of her delicious scent, and then she let out a long, loud cry and grabbed his hair again when his tongue touched the hot, wet, swollen lips of her pussy.
Lion placed a hand on each of her inner thighs and gently moved them apart as he let his tongue reach deeper, sliding along her slit, and stopping at the top to draw a circle around her swollen clit with his tongue. Madison was making sexy noises, arching her hips up off the bed and ripping at his hair. Lion pushed his tongue in even deeper and reached for the pretty pink folds, completely soaked with her juices. He pushed his tongue all the way inside of her and before she finished gasping, he reached up with his thumb and pressed it against her hard clit. “Oh Jesus! Lion! Fuck!” She was loud, and if anyone was in the hallway they probably heard her, but Lion didn’t give a fuck. He loved hearing her yell out his name. Sex with Madison wasn’t just sex…there was that intimacy to it, and that was what made it so much better than any he’d had before. He’d felt it even before he’d ever felt her…she was right, they were connected, and it both thrilled him and scared the piss out of him at the same time.
He began licking and stroking in rhythm while she ground herself into his hand harder and faster, breathing out in ragged gasps and pushing out his name and other epithets as she did. He could feel she was right on the edge and just before her orgasm overwhelmed her completely, he replaced the finger on her clit with his tongue. Madison screamed, arched up, stiffened, cried out his name, pulled his hair, and then rocked her body up and down over and over until at last she collapsed down onto the bed and began to shake.
When the orgasm subsided at last, Lion sat up and looked down at her. Her dark hair was stuck to her face in places. Her lips were bright red and swollen, her cheeks were red, and her chest was heaving. He had to reach down and squeeze his throbbing cock to keep himself from having his own orgasm just looking at her post-coital bliss. He was still staring at her when she opened her eyes a slit, smiled slightly and said:
“Are you going to make love to me?” Someone would have to hold a gun to his head…or hers…in order for him to refuse that proposition. He repositioned her on the bed so she was in the center of it, and then he climbed up over her. He moved her legs apart with one of his and Madison took that opportunity to reach down and wrap her hand around his aching cock. It took all the wind out of his lungs and he pushed forward trying to get inside of her before he embarrassed himself and came all over
her hand like a horny adolescent. Thankfully, Madison guided him inside and he was treated to the feel of her opening up to him, slowly. Lion gently advanced, letting her body adjust as he did. Each time he was inside of her, it was like opening up a virgin all over again. He wasn’t sure he’d make it to heaven when he died, but at least he’d had a piece of it on earth before he went. With each stroke her walls got hotter, and wetter, and it took him several minutes to realize he hadn’t put the condom on. When he did, he stopped and looked down at her face. Somehow Madison read the question in his eyes and she said, “I’m on the pill, and I’m clean.” He had no doubts she was clean. He didn’t know how he knew that, but he just did. It was almost comical when he thought about whose loins she’d come from.
“I’ve never had sex without a condom,” he said. Madison smiled and said:
“I think you’ll like it.”
“I already do.” Lion began to stroke in and out of her again. The skin to skin contact added something to it that threatened to make his head explode. His chest was filled with an excitement that he’d never felt before and was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to contain. He buried himself in her deep, and just held his throbbing cock there for several seconds before swiveling his hips and causing Madison to dig her fingers into the flesh of his biceps. Lion was fighting for composure, but the feelings were out of his hands at this point. As he slid in and out of her, her hips met him perfectly with each one of his thrusts and Lion suddenly needed more of her. He leaned down and caught her lips with his again, and the feel of her soft lips against his, and her warm, wet tongue in his mouth as their bodies moved in perfect rhythm, was the sexiest, most intimate feeling he’d ever experienced in his life. His heart overflowed with emotions, some that he didn’t understand, most that he didn’t want, and all that he knew he couldn’t control. Lion wrapped one of his arms underneath her body and pulled her in closer until not a breath of air could come between their bodies. Madison pulled her legs up and wrapped them around his waist like she couldn’t get enough of him, and that feeling only enhanced those emotions he was already struggling to understand. His resolve to hold back suddenly splintered and Madison’s nails scraped down his shoulders and arms while they both reached their peaks, almost once again in perfect harmony. Lion took his time, riding it out, and stayed as connected to her as he could when he finally lay down to rest next to her. He was hooked on Madison whether he wanted to be or not. She snuggled down into him, melding her body into his. They fit perfectly together, like two pieces of soft clay and Lion realized that protecting his heart was no longer the most important thing in his life…Madison was. He was fucked.
It was time for him to go, and Madison was waiting for it. She told herself it was okay. She was really okay with just having this casual, no-feelings relationship with him. But she did have feelings, and no matter how much she lied to herself, she couldn’t deny them. She was working hard on suppressing them, however, when she felt him slide out of her and then instead of getting out of the bed, he re-positioned himself and wrapped his big arms around her from behind. He pulled her in so close that it was like he didn’t want a breath of air to escape between them, and then she felt his hair fall across her face as he nuzzled her head down underneath his chin. It was the safest, and the warmest, she’d ever felt in her life. She was fucked…but for now, she was going to enjoy it.
Madison smiled as she closed her eyes and listened to his breaths slow down and felt the rhythm of his heartbeat slowing. He was falling asleep and next to the passion they’d just experienced, it was the most wonderful feeling in the world. Madison let the exhaustion she’d felt since finding out that Hawk was so sick finally take hold of her and she drifted off on a dream…the kind that was going to leave her wanting when she woke up, she was sure.
When she did wake up, the room was dark. The sun had gone down and the shards of light that still came through the cracked open blinds of the room were artificial, from the lights that surrounded the parking lot out front. She was still tightly in Lion’s grasp and as she began to slowly try to wiggle out of his arms, she felt him stir and flex his hips into her bottom. “I’m just going to use the bathroom,” she whispered. To her surprise he said:
“Hurry.”
Still smiling, she got out of bed, stopping when she got to the bathroom door, to look back at him. His eyes were still closed and he had the sheet pulled up to his hip bones. She could see the outline of his cock and she could tell that it was about half hard…and she wanted it, and him again. He was so beautiful, everything about him. That wild hair turned her on, the way it lay fanned out all over the pillow underneath him with strands of it falling down across his beautiful face. His lips were thick, and pink, and so fucking kissable. When his eyes were open, the deep green color of them sometimes made her feel like she was swimming in the ocean. And then there was his body…she had no words for his body, but the way her own felt each time she looked at him said it all.
Finally she went into the bathroom, relieved herself, and decided that since he was still sleeping, a quick shower might do her some good. She found an elastic wrap and tied her hair up in a loose bun before reaching into the shower and turning on the hot water. She waited for it to heat up and then stepped in underneath the spray, enjoying the way the hot water relaxed her muscles. She closed her eyes and let it drench her. The sound of the shower door opening brought her eyes open and the sight of Lion sent her heart soaring yet again.
“Mind if I join you?”
She smiled and shook her head. “Not even a little bit.” Lion stepped into the small space and filled it up. He put his arms around her and gave her a hug. Madison realized that was the most intimate thing they’d shared so far. She could almost feel the emotions flowing out of him and into her body. He was trying as hard as she was to deny his feelings, maybe harder…but he was failing miserably.
She felt his arm move and seconds later it was back, bar of soap in hand. He lathered both of his hands with it and then began to massage her body with the suds, starting at her shoulders and letting his long arms follow the curvature of her arms and then her back. It was like an erotic massage and Madison’s body felt so light and relaxed that she could almost fall asleep again, standing up in the shower, supporting herself against his chest.
She felt his hand go up to her hair and release it from the elastic band. She didn’t object, especially when he tipped her chin up and let the warm spray douse her hair. He leaned down and very softly touched his lips to hers and then he took the shampoo bottle down off the shower caddy and poured a generous amount into his hands. While Madison stood there with her head tipped back, he let his fingers massage the shampoo through her hair and into her scalp. Again, it was comfortable, and erotic, and one of the most incredible things she’d ever felt.
Lion took his time, washing every part of her body before at last turning the soap on himself. Madison took it out of his hands and tried to return the favor, washing every part of his body, saving his once again throbbing cock for last. He groaned as she ran her soapy hands up and down the shaft and then she felt one of his hands searching between her thighs and she took a step so that her legs were open wider…and inviting him in. Lion massaged her lips softly and Madison felt the fire in her core once again flare up and threaten an inferno. While his fingers played with her folds and her clit, and her hand continued to stroke him, he took a step so that they were underneath the water again and he used his free hand to make sure all the soap was off both of them. Madison felt the water go off and Lion gently remove his hand from between her legs. He took a step back so she was forced to let go of him, and then he pulled the towel that she’d draped over the shower down, opened the door, and stepped out behind her. He proceeded then to dry her off, every part of her, leaving the space between her legs wetter than it was before she got out of the shower.
Once he had her dry, he dried himself off too, and then took her hand and led her back into the bedroom. She’d neve
r been with anyone who spoke so infrequently, but she was beginning to get used to it. Somehow his silences seemed to say so much more than words. When they got to the bed, he tried to coax her down, but she stepped around him and made him sit down instead. Lion reached up and put his hands on her waist and for a second, he rested his head against her stomach. Madison’s body was shaking all over with emotions and desire, especially when she felt his hot lips begin to kiss their way across her stomach. When she realized he was headed for her pussy, she took a step back. It wasn’t that she didn’t love that, especially the way his facial hair tickled her skin…but it was his turn. He looked up at her and while she had her eyes locked into his, she lowered herself to her knees. Lion groaned as soon as she pushed his legs open and took his cock back into her hand. She wrapped her fingers around the base and held it for just a few seconds, loving the way it pulsed against her hand. She could feel Lion’s breathing speeding up again and he sucked a breath in hard when her lips made contact with the tip of his cock. Madison slowly let the rest of him advance into her mouth and Lion wrapped his hands up in her hair. His head was tipped back, his mouth was open, and his eyes were closed. Madison began to slide her mouth from tip to shaft, no small job considering how thick he was. But the wetter he got from her mouth and what was leaking from the tip of his cock, the easier it became. She bobbed her head up and down on his cock, held her lips snugly against the shaft, and used her left hand to gently stroke his balls. Lion was moaning and breathing out her name as she moved faster and worked her tongue up and down his shaft as she let him stroke in and out of her mouth. Madison didn’t stop, not even when she heard him say:
“Oh shit…Madison, I can’t…fuck…” She could feel it, she knew he was about to explode. She wanted him to. She wanted nothing more on earth at that moment than to make him feel good…as good as she felt every time he touched her. Lion nearly pulled her hair out by the roots as the orgasm slammed into him. Madison continued to help him work through it as she felt his body spasm with wave after wave of it. Only when he began to relax did she slide her mouth back up to the tip, and slowly let his softening member slide out of her lips. She looked at his face then and he was looking at her with the sort of awe all girls dreamed about…but Madison was afraid she’d never achieve. Letting go of him and going back to Phoenix this time would be a thousand times harder than the last. But she’d told him she could handle this, and handle it she would.
