  CHAPTER 23

  ALLISON

  I had fantasized about this moment from the first time I laid eyes on him.

  Feeling Cedric’s rock hard body rubbing against me in the flesh felt surreal.

  Just a couple of months ago, this man was a mere dream, a pure fantasy for me.

  Now, we were about to have sex.

  His utterly perfect physique definitely made me self-conscious. I had truly never been with a man as gorgeous as Cedric, so chiseled and naturally tan, not a blemish on his skin. My body seemed to react uncontrollably to him and I wondered whether he could feel how wet I was becoming through my barely there underwear.

  My heart pounded against his chest as he pressed against me. His heart was pounding too and it excited me to know that he was as turned on as I was.

  Sliding my hands down his back, I gripped his firm ass through his boxer briefs and he reacted with a moan, kissing me harder.

  Suddenly I felt the slick tip of his bare, hard penis rubbing against my stomach…it seemed to have burst out of his underwear. Jeez…there was definitely nothing lacking in that department.

  Instinctively, I spread my legs apart. Cedric’s moan vibrated down my throat and he began kissing down my torso stopping at the top line of my underwear.

  Then, he went lower and started to kiss my inner thighs softly and I could swear that alone was going to make me lose it. He continued this for some time, starting down at my knees and trailing his tongue up to my underwear line, stopping there at the top of my thighs and returning his kisses back down my leg again. One of the times, he pulled my underwear with his teeth, teasing me, as he licked me…everywhere but there. My legs quivered and shook with the anticipation of what he was going to do next.

  Just when I thought I was going to lose my mind, he ripped my thong apart pushing it down my legs, which I then wrapped around his back.

  He looked at me with a wicked grin, nodding no and pushed my legs back down off of him and spread me apart, lowering his mouth downward. I felt his hot tongue invade me down there suddenly and fiercely, as I gripped his thick hair.

  I rocked my pelvis in synch with the thrusts of his tongue and screamed out for a pleasure that I had literally never felt before. Every time I would shriek, I could feel the vibration of Cedric’s moaning in response.

  He continued to devour me for minutes until I couldn’t take it anymore. I wanted him inside of me, so I pulled his head up to mine and kissed him hard, pushing his boxer briefs down and opening my legs around him.

  Feeling his hot erection against my stomach, I panted in frustration as he took turns sucking hard on each of my breasts. This continued for minutes and I closed my eyes, gripping his hair, lost in the ecstasy of it.

  Suddenly, the abrupt coldness of his absence hit me as he lifted off of me, reaching for his pants that were strewn on the floor. I heard the crinkle of a wrapper and lifted my neck to see him sheathing himself with a condom. Cedric looked down at me with glowing eyes and smiled, his chestnut hair, now a tousled mess. I couldn’t help but smile back at his beautiful face.

  “Are you sure you are ready for this?” he whispered, looking down at me longingly and rubbing my stomach with his big hands in slow circles.

  I breathed out in a combination of frustration and ecstasy. “Yes, Cedric. I trust you.”

  I meant it. I trusted him and had no doubts about what I was about to do.

  He closed his eyes and inhaled slowly for a moment at my words, as if he was processing what I said. Was he having doubts? I couldn’t tell what he was thinking at that moment, but he seemed to be deep in thought and breathing erratically.

  When he opened his eyes and stared into mine, I smiled back at him. After a few seconds, he exhaled, reached for my face and cupped my cheek, caressing it with his thumb. He stayed like this for a minute staring at me and then, never taking his eyes off mine, very suddenly lowered himself and plunged into me deeply, claiming me, in one movement. The initial burn quickly turned into a euphoric feeling.

  “Fuck…Allison,” Cedric whispered into my ear as we moved together slowly.

  “Oh…God,” I said. Feeling this beautiful man inside me was truly the most amazing thing I had ever experienced. I didn’t know if it was because of the sheer size of him or because it had been a while for me, but he seemed to fill me completely, like it was my first time without the pain. It was just the most unbelievable feeling in the world.

  I closed my eyes, never wanting this feeling to end and opened them to find Cedric staring into me intently. I don’t think his eyes ever left mine for even a moment. I held onto his back, pushing him deeper and deeper into me.

  Cedric was whispering incoherently, but then I clearly heard what he said next.

  “I love…this…being inside you. You’re the most beautiful woman in the world,” he said huskily as he continued to rock into me, his eyes still firmly planted on mine, as we developed a rhythm.

  “Aaaaaagh.” I moaned, not being able to respond with anything more coherent.

  “God, I wish I could stay inside you forever.” Cedric panted and suddenly began thrusting harder and deeper than before.

  With those last words and his change in pace, I could feel myself losing control, climaxing suddenly and unexpectedly. “Cedric, I am coming,” I said.

  He seemed relieved to be able to let go. “Oh, God. Come, baby…I’m coming too…holy shit.” Cedric’s thrusts quickened as I felt his orgasm pulsating inside me while I climaxed.

  As we both recovered from that Earth shattering experience, his movements slowed. He stayed inside me and slowly kissed my neck.

  I closed my eyes trying to relish every moment of being here with him like this. We stayed together silent for quite some time before Cedric spoke.

  “That was amazing, Allison,” he whispered in my ear as he slowly pulled out of me. He turned over quickly and I heard him remove the condom and discard it.

  I turned toward him with my head resting on my elbow. “Cedric, I am so glad you came home.”

  “Me too,” he said as he pulled me closer to him and rested his forehead against mine. “You have no idea.”

  CHAPTER 24

  CEDRIC

  I can’t believe I almost backed out of the most intense sex of my life. It was the moment I asked her if she was sure, when she told me she trusted me.

  I trust you.

  Hearing Allison say that really struck a cord and it was the only moment where I momentarily snapped out of the trance she put me in. I had closed my eyes beginning to doubt whether taking this step with her was a good idea and everything flashed before me…past, present and future.

  By the time I opened my eyes again, the sheer power of her sweet face looking up at me crushed everything else and I buried it all again…by burying myself in her.

  Maybe I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if the guilt caught up again later, but it was a risk I was willing to take. It was worth it to experience making love to her. Sex with her was different from all of the rest. I hadn’t ever experienced the feeling of wanting to completely possess someone and of wanting her to completely own me, to be so completely connected to the person, not just the act.

  I had meant it when I said I wished I could stay inside her forever. All of my doubts seemed to disappear there. As long as we were connected, I knew I couldn’t lose her. This was the opposite of what I normally felt after sex, which was a feeling of wanting to run, where the connection ended with the orgasm.

  It was now the middle of the night and Allison lay sleeping beside me rhythmically breathing so peacefully.

  A moment ago, a terrifying dream had awakened me and relief replaced panic when I realized she was still lying next to me.

  In the dream, Allison and I were walking in the park, when I suddenly started taunting her like a child in a sing-songy voice, repeating, ‘I know something you don’t know. I know something you don’t know’ over and over again. She had a terrified look on her fa
ce and then I woke up. The dream was brief, but just enough to make me sweat profusely and remind me how fucked up this was.

  But, thankfully, for now, in reality, she was right here sleeping next to me like a baby. God, I loved hearing the sound of her breathing. I wished she could always be peaceful and that there were no secrets threatening to destroy that. I would inevitably take away that peace, but she had a right to know everything.

  Yeah…sleep was not happening for me tonight.

  Tempted to kiss her awake, I rolled over away from her to squelch the urge and tried to get some sleep to no avail.

  After a half-hour, I turned back around to watch her peaceful face again. There was no way I would ever want to hurt her. Unable to resist, I moved in slowly to softly kiss her on the forehead. She moved a little, still asleep and her breathing changed from the interruption.

  At some point after 4:00, I dozed off.

  When Allison’s alarm went off at 5:30, I jolted awake and noticed her yawning next to me. She would have to leave soon for the diner, but I wasn’t about to let her go that easily.

  “Good morning, sleepyhead,” I said as I leaned over kissing her on the lips gently.

  “Hi,” she whispered groggily and pulled me in tighter, kissing me again.

  “I wish you didn’t have to go to work so darn early,” I said, rubbing her back as she got up and sat at the edge of her side of the bed. She was still completely naked and crossing her arms over her breasts, her sudden modesty surprising me.

  She continued to look around the room probably for some clothes.

  “Do you mind turning around, so I can get up and get dressed?” she asked.

  She was blushing and adorable.

  I turned around immediately pained at not being able to look at her beautiful ass. “Let me know when it’s safe,” I said.

  After a minute, I heard her say, “Safe.”

  I slowly turned around to see Allison kneeling on the bed over me, wearing my navy blue shirt, her hard nipples poking through the cotton fabric. There was something so hot about a girl wearing your shirt, particularly when she was as sexy as this one. She had also thrown on a pair of sexy red satin underwear.

  “That looks way better on you than on me, sweetheart,” I said, tugging on the bottom to pull her down to me.

  She kissed me and as I squeezed her ass, she giggled. “I figured if I wore your shirt, you’d have no choice then to let me ogle your chest over coffee.”

  I squeezed her and rolled her over pinning her down under me in one fast motion. “Oh, is that what you had in mind? Well, I am happy to oblige on one condition.”

  Allison pushed my face towards hers. “What’s that?” she asked.

  “You let me make you coffee and breakfast,” I said.

  Allison nuzzled my neck. “That sounds awesome. Do you have to work today?”

  “I’ll probably go into the office at some point, but nothing major going on since I was supposed to be in Cali, so my schedule here is free and clear. How about I come down to the diner for lunch?”

  She smiled at my suggestion. “I’d love that.”

  “Good…because I love being with you,” I said as I pulled her toward me into another kiss.

  Allison broke away from me and walked away toward the bedroom door not saying anything. She lifted my shirt off and threw it by the threshold.

  As I shook my head in disbelief at how lucky I was to be here and to have seen that, I heard the sound of water running in the distance and wondered if she was taking a shower. That thought immediately made me hard and I decided I needed to personally investigate.

  When I opened the door to the bathroom just off the hallway, I saw Allison’s beautiful naked silhouette through the frosted glass shower door.

  “Hey, uh…I just wanted to make sure you were ok in here,” I said through the door.

  “Yup…okay…doing just fine, thanks,” Allison said teasingly as she rubbed her body with soap slowly.

  I struggled to see through the glass shower door. “Okay…well, you, uh, let me know if you need me for anything in there…okay?”

  “Nothing now, thanks.”

  Okay, that plan backfired. Just as I made my way out of the bathroom, Allison stopped me.

  “Actually, can you reach under the sink and grab me a new shampoo…this one is kind of empty.”

  I moved my way back in and searched under the sink, grabbing a fluorescent green bottle.

  She slid open the shower door a few inches, reaching out for the bottle, her face dripping with water and smiled. “Thanks.” Then, she slid the shower door closed again.

  I walked back out of the room, standing just outside of it peeking in, not certain whether she knew I was still at the doorway.

  I stood frozen in awe watching her lather her beautiful long hair through the frosted glass. God, how I wanted inside (in more ways than one). Not wanting to assume it was okay to just barge in naked, I stood, dazed, staring…dying.

  As a few minutes passed, and the lathering continued, Allison chuckled.

  “You’re going to give up…just like that?” She laughed.

  I opened the door immediately. “Have you been fucking teasing me this entire time?”

  “Well…I was hoping you would give in, actually.” She opened the shower door completely exposing her wet naked body. This time, she covered nothing.

  I pushed down on my boxers and couldn’t jump in there fast enough. Pulling her slick waist into me, the hot water poured down over us and I slid the door shut.

  We kissed slowly as the water gushed between our lips.

  Kissing down the length of her body, I kneeled down and just held her stomach to my face, kissing it softly and licking the water that trickled down it.

  I paused for a moment and closed my eyes, knowing I would remember this moment forever, no matter what happened with us.

  Standing up, I grabbed the sponge, adding some of the green apple body wash she had (that’s where the green apple smell came from!) and began washing her, starting with her arms and rolling over her breasts, down her stomach and between her legs. Allison panted as I continued to move the sponge back and forth there before it dropped to the ground.

  She completely floored me when she dropped to her knees and took me deeply into her mouth. Closing my eyes, I relished every moment at her unexpected surprise.

  After a few minutes of pure ecstasy, I was about to lose it and pushed her away pulling her up, grabbing her face into my mouth, not being able to kiss her hard enough.

  We continued to kiss as I lifted her up and wrapped her legs around my waist. Just as I was ready to carelessly plunge into her, someone burst through the bathroom door.

  CHAPTER 25

  ALLISON

  A familiar British accent broke Cedric’s and my passion in the shower.

  “Holy shitballs!” I heard Sonia yell.

  Cedric dropped me to the shower floor, shouting “What the fuck?”

  “Sonia?! Oh my God…what are you doing back?” I asked, mortified at what she saw through the frosted glass.

  My roommate wasn’t due back from London for another couple of days. I saw her flaming red hair and giant breasted silhouette through the glass.

  “Ok, so apparently…I missed a lot while I was away…sorry!” Sonia’s voice shook in mortification as she walked out of the bathroom and said “Um…heading…to the kitchen…yeah.” The door slammed shut.

  “Your roommate?” Cedric held me close, the water still pouring down on us.

  My heart was pounding against his chest. “Yeah.” I sighed.

  Cedric started to laugh and I quickly followed. All of a sudden, we both started cracking up hysterically under the water. It was awkward, but you had to admit, it was funny.

  Cedric shut the water off and squeezed the excess moisture out of my hair, pulling me in for one last kiss before we exited the shower.

  I looked up at Cedric embarrassed. “We’ll have to join her for coffee, I
guess.”

  “Does coffee cure blue balls?” he asked winking, as he wrapped me in a towel, drying me off.

  He grabbed a towel for himself and I enjoyed the view as he wiped down his tight abs and sexy tattoo. He placed the towel around his waist and we exited the bathroom, hurrying to the bedroom to get dressed.

  Cedric pulled me in for one last kiss before he held his hand out leading me in the kitchen, where I could smell that Sonia had started to make coffee.

  Cedric came up from behind Sonia and I laughed when she jumped in surprise.

  He held out his hand. “Sonia…I’m sorry about that. I’m Cedric. Nice to finally formally meet you.”

  I kept waiting for Sonia to let go of his hand, but she continued shaking it in awe. “I figured it was you, Blue Eyes…I couldn’t make you out through the frosted glass…nice to meet you, too.”

  “Blue…what…blue…balls?” Cedric joked, as he looked over at me and the three of us all started cracking up.

  “Blue Eyes, actually. It’s a long story,” I said as I smiled over at Sonia, pouring a coffee and taking a seat at the table.

  I was definitely going to be late to work, so I decided to call the diner and let them know something unexpected had come up and I would be in at 8:00.

  Cedric insisted on cooking us a delicious breakfast of cinnamon French toast that was absolutely divine. The three of us inhaled it and Cedric and I filled Sonia in on everything that happened with Nate and how we bonded that night.

  “Holy Shit, Allison…I can’t believe Nate came after you like that.” Sonia sat with her arms crossed in shock. “Where is he now?”

  I sighed, “His father is a lawyer. Officer Derin told me that his parents came from out of town and cut some deal where he would enter a special six-month rehab program instead of jail time. I don’t know much more than that.”

  Cedric interrupted. “Well, we have to keep tabs on his whereabouts when he gets out. I don’t want him ever touching you or anywhere near you, for that matter, again.”

  I shivered at his possessive tone and relished the fact that I had this beautiful man wanting to protect me. Cedric glared at me fiercely with his beautiful eyes, a cross between fear and desire, prompting me to reach for his hand from across the table. He entwined his fingers into mine.
