“I want to make you come first.”
Since he insisted, she’d be crazy to deny him. Brenna stretched her arms over her head. “Then do it.”
Eric removed her panties, pushed her legs wide open, and crawled between them. Brenna placed her feet flat on the floor and spread her thighs, giving him as much room as she could. For a moment, he simply sat on his knees, his hands on his thighs, and looked at her body. The intensity of his gaze, as if he wanted to feast on every part of her, made her clit start to throb again. She rotated her hips to try and ease the ache.
“Touch me, Eric.”
He shook his head. “You first. I want to watch you rub your clit.”
He didn’t have to tell her twice. Desperate for release, Brenna placed two fingers of her right hand on her pussy. She gathered up the moisture from her body and spread it over her clit. A groan slipped past her lips when she touched her swollen flesh.
“Oh, yeah,” Eric whispered. “I love to watch you do that. Rub it harder. Make yourself come.”
Brenna increased the movement of her fingers. Knowing Eric watched her every move made her feelings even stronger. Just a bit longer…
Eric pulled her hand away from her body.
Brenna’s breath hitched as her orgasm faded. “Wha—”
He raised her hand to his mouth and licked away her juices.
Brenna’s body jerked and her clit throbbed. “Why did you stop me?”
“I wasn’t ready for you to come.”
She tried to sneak her left hand between her thighs. He captured it before she could reach her destination.
“Eric, touch me. Please!”
Holding both her wrists in one hand, he brushed his thumb across her clit in the barest of caresses. Brenna bit her lower lip and raised her hips completely off the floor. “More!”
A devilish grin tweaked the corners of his mouth. “Greedy little thing, aren’t you?”
“Eric, don’t tease me.”
“You teased me. I should have the right to pay you back.”
Eric slowly circled her clit. Each pass of his thumb over the sensitive tissue made Brenna want to cry out in frustration. She wanted—needed—to come. “Eric!”
The pressure of his thumb increased as he slid two fingers inside her again. Brenna drew in a sharp breath. It felt so good…
She gasped when Eric’s other thumb slipped past her anus. She’d been so involved with her feelings, she hadn’t realized he’d released her wrists.
“Relax,” he whispered. “I want to play a little.”
Brenna enjoyed anal play, but she had to be mentally ready for it. She took a breath and blew it out slowly to help her relax.
“That’s the way.” Eric pushed one thumb inside her ass. He continued to caress her clit with his other thumb while he pumped his fingers into her pussy. Brenna rotated her hips to his movements, establishing a rhythm with him. Each time she shifted drove all the digits farther inside her.
She purred with pleasure.
“Touch your breasts,” Eric demanded softly.
Cupping her breasts, Brenna squeezed and pushed them together several moments before rubbing her fingertips over her nipples. Eric’s eyes flared with desire. That look spurred her to continue. She plucked at her nipples until they were hard, rosy points.
The combination of her hands and Eric’s on her body sent Brenna over the top. She cried out as her climax washed over her.
The tremors were still coursing through her body when Eric rolled her to her stomach. She wasn’t allowed a nice, slow descent from the heavens. Instead, Eric pulled her to her knees and jammed his cock into her.
“Oh, God, Eric!”
“Oh, yeah. Take it all, babe.”
Brenna closed her eyes tightly and bit her bottom lip to keep from crying out again. Eric held onto her hips as he rammed into her pussy again and again. Her ears rang with the sound of her pounding heart and his flesh slapping against her. Despite just having a powerful orgasm, the heat quickly pooled low in her belly.
Brenna moaned when he pushed his thumb inside her ass again.
“I haven’t fucked you here in a long time.”
Thinking of that hard cock inside her ass made her shiver with anticipation.
“How about it? Will you let me do that, babe?”
The climax shimmied down her spine and between her legs. Brenna arched her back as her clit pulsed and contractions gripped Eric’s cock.
“Oh, yeah, that’s it. I love when your pussy grabs my cock. Yeah. Yeah!”
His fingers dug into her hips. He pushed his cock all the way inside her and released an animalistic grunt. He thrust once, twice, three times, then remained still.
Her heartbeat throbbed in her temples. Eric still gripped her hips, and she had the fleeting thought that there would be light bruises on her skin tomorrow. She didn’t care.
“God, babe,” he said huskily. “That was… God.”
Chuckling at his inability to speak, Brenna moved forward until his cock eased out of her. She heard an audible sucking sound, as if her body didn’t want to release him. Stretching out on her stomach, she sighed tiredly and closed her eyes. Sleep definitely wouldn’t be a problem tonight.
Light kisses up her spine tickled her. She turned her head and smiled at Eric as he lay beside her.
“That was incredible,” he said softly.
“Yes it was.” She touched his lips, and he kissed her fingertips. “You wanted anal sex.”
Eric bent his elbow and rested his head on his arm. “I wanted everything with you tonight.”
“So why didn’t you?”
“For one, you didn’t say yes. For another, when you came and your pussy clenched around my cock, I couldn’t hold back coming too.” He rubbed her back in small circles. “I’m not the least bit disappointed.”
“I am.”
Eric frowned slightly. “Why?”
“We didn’t have dessert.”
He rolled to his back and laughed out loud. Grinning, Brenna propped up on her elbows. “I made chocolate mousse, and I had a lot of ideas on how we could play with it.”
Laughter still shone in his eyes when he looked at her again. “That certainly sounds interesting. We’ll play with it tomorrow. How’s that?”
“Deal.”
Eric cradled the back of her head and pulled her closer for a deep kiss. She’d been gone for three days, overseeing a lighting project at a new casino in Reno. He couldn’t believe how much he’d missed her. He’d missed the sex, yes, but he’d also missed her. He’d missed her smile, the way her eyes crinkled at the corners when she laughed, the scent of her lavender soap in his bathroom. He’d missed sharing meals, and waking up with her in his arms.
“I’m glad you’re home,” he whispered.
“Me too.”
“You don’t have to leave again right away, do you?”
She bit her bottom lip. Eric knew that telling action meant she didn’t want to say what she was about to say. “Wednesday.”
He hadn’t known she would leave again so soon. He tried to be understanding about her many out-of-town trips because he knew how much she loved her job. At times, though, it was hard to be patient. “How long will you be gone this time?”
“I’m not sure, exactly, but it should only be a few days. It’s the same job, Eric. It’s almost finished and I need to be there to make sure everything works.”
“I know you do. It’s just…” He ran his thumb over her cheek. “It’s getting harder to be away from you.”
“For me too.”
She leaned forward and kissed him. “After this trip, I won’t have to leave again until I go to Athens.”
“But you’ll be gone several weeks then, right?”
“Yes,” she said softly. “Setting up for the Olympic ceremonies will take several weeks. Plus, I have to be there for the actual opening ceremony.”
Eric sat up, one knee bent and one leg flat on the floor. “I’m very
proud of you, Brenna, but sometimes I wish you weren’t so damned good at what you do.”
“You could go with me.”
“To Reno?”
“No. To Athens.” The thought must have just occurred to her for her eyes lit up with excitement. She scrambled up to her knees and grabbed his hands. “Oh, Eric, that’s a wonderful idea! Say you’ll go with me. Penny can run everything while you’re gone, can’t she?”
“Penny’s run things while I was gone for a couple of days. You’re talking weeks, Brenna. You know how busy my office is. I don’t think that would be fair to her.”
Brenna twitched her mouth back and forth. “What if you came over for, say, a week after the Olympics start? Ooh, Eric, that would work. We could watch some of the games, sightsee, go out for romantic dinners, make love every chance we get.” She squeezed his hands. “Please say you’ll go.”
He couldn’t possibly say no when it obviously meant so much to her.
And it was the perfect lead-in for his proposal.
“I think it’d be great to see Athens with you. It would be a great place for a honeymoon.”
Brenna clapped her hands. “Oh, we’ll have soooo much fun. I already have dozens of brochures. We can…” Her voice trailed off and the laughter quickly disappeared from her eyes. “Honeymoon?”
If she hadn’t looked so shocked, Eric would’ve laughed. “Yeah, honeymoon. As in the place where two people go after they get married.”
She sat down, hard. Eric couldn’t resist dropping a kiss on her parted lips before he grasped his jacket he’d tossed on the loveseat upon his arrival. Reaching inside one of the front pockets, he withdrew the blue ring box.
Glittering tears filled her eyes when he looked at her again. One tear fell down her cheek. He wiped it away before he opened the box and held it up for her to see the ring.
“I love you, Brenna Marie West, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?”
More tears fell from her eyes as she nodded. Eric removed the ring from the box and slipped it on the third finger of her left hand. Brenna moved her hand and wiggled her fingers.
“It’s beautiful, Eric,” she said, her voice raspy. “And it fits perfectly.”
“I would’ve bought a bigger diamond, but—”
She touched his lips with one fingertip. “No, this is perfect. It’s absolutely perfect.” Cupping his face in her hands, she kissed him tenderly. “You’re absolutely perfect.”
“Funny, I feel the same way about you.”
Eric kissed her while lowering her back to the floor. The kisses continued as he moved between her legs. Brenna wrapped her arms around his neck, her legs around his waist. Still kissing her, Eric slowly slid his cock inside her.
He didn’t hurry toward a climax. He didn’t increase the speed of his thrusts. This was a time for tenderness, a gentle buildup to completion.
A time for love.
Brenna’s choppy breathing told Eric of her rapidly approaching orgasm. Hooking his arms beneath her knees, he drove deeper into her. Still maintaining the slow, steady rhythm, he circled his hips while thrusting to give Brenna the greatest stimulation on her clit.
“Come for me, babe,” he whispered into her ear. “I want to feel you come again.”
He’d barely uttered the words when her body tightened and he felt the contractions deep inside her. She arched her neck. Unable to resist that tempting flesh, Eric lightly bit it as he continued to thrust. No more than a few moments passed when Brenna trembled and the contractions once again gripped his cock. Her second orgasm sent him over the edge with her.
Heart pounding, lungs burning, Eric lay still on top of Brenna. When he finally gathered enough strength to raise up on his elbows, he kissed her softly.
“I don’t think I can do this every time you’re gone for three days.”
Brenna chuckled. “Me either.”
“Sore?”
“A little. But it’s a good sore.”
“Definitely a good sore.” Her eyes looked drowsy, as if she could fall asleep in seconds. He pushed her damp hair back from her forehead and kissed it. “How about if we get some sleep? I want you to be all rested tomorrow for my surprise.”
The drowsy look instantly left her eyes. “Surprise? What is it?”
“If I tell you now, it won’t be a surprise.”
“Eric—”
He stopped her objection with a kiss. “Sleep now, surprise tomorrow.”
Chapter Five
Eric moved his head to get the bright light out of his eyes. As consciousness slowly seeped into his brain, he realized it was the sunlight streaming through the east window. After three tries, he managed to open his eyes and look at the clock. A few minutes before ten. He rarely slept this late. But then, he rarely had all the…activity he’d had last night.
Three times in the living room hadn’t been enough. Once they went to bed and Eric had drawn Brenna into his arms, once he’d felt her nude body against his, he’d wanted her as much as before they’d ever made love.
She’d felt the same as he, and had decided to be in charge again. His little temptress had ordered him to lie on his back in the middle of the bed. Her warm mouth had quickly perked his “friend” back up so she could climb on top of it. Eric had laid on his back, his arms beside his head, while she rode him to another climax.
Seeing her back arched, her head back, her breasts thrust forward while she came, was so incredibly sexy.
His sex life with Brenna was more exciting, more passionate, than he’d ever imagined. Finding a woman so free, so willing to try anything he wanted, made him feel very lucky.
It also made him feel very horny.
Thinking about her passion sent blood rushing to his cock, despite everything they’d done last night. He turned to his side and reached for her. Her side of the bed was empty.
The smell of coffee drifted to his nostrils. Eric looked toward the door. Brenna stood in the doorway, sipping from a large mug. She wore a floor-length, black silky robe. A mischievous smile touched her lips.
“Want a taste of my…” She shifted her leg, giving him a glimpse of a creamy thigh. “…coffee?”
The sight of that thigh turned him hard instantly. Eric sat up and stuffed his pillow behind his back. “A taste of your…coffee sounds delicious.”
Brenna sauntered toward the bed. The way she walked made him think of a cat on the prowl.
Eric bit back a groan as even more blood rushed into his cock.
She sat on the bed, facing him, and held out her mug to him. “Rich blend, with a dash of cream.”
“Just the way I like it.” Eric accepted the mug and took a healthy sip. “You’re good at giving me things the way I like them.”
“So are you.” Leaning forward, she kissed him softly. “Last night was incredible.”
“Yes, it was. What do you think about a repeat today?”
“We’d probably have to stay in bed all day.”
“I have nowhere else to go.”
“Then I think it’s an excellent idea.”
Eric cradled her neck in his hand, intent on pulling her to him for another longer kiss. The ringing telephone stopped him. He frowned at the offending instrument.
“There are times when I really hate the telephone.”
Brenna touched his chest. Her fingers felt warm on his skin. “The machine will get it.”
At that moment, Brenna’s boss’ voice came over the answering machine. “Brenna, call me ASAP. There’s been a change of plans for the casino in Reno.”
Biting her lower lip, Brenna looked from the machine to Eric and back again. He could feel her frustration. She wanted to be with him, but she had an obligation to her client. He sighed to himself while his erection deflated. “Call her back, babe.”
She combed her fingers through his chest hair. “I want to concentrate on you. I’ll call her later.”
“Call her now. It sounded important. I’ll just sit he
re and be horny.”
She kissed him quickly before reaching for the telephone. Eric sipped his coffee and listened to Brenna’s end of the conversation.
“Hi, Carey, what’s up… He did? When?” She glanced at Eric and fiddled with the lapels of her robe. That nervous gesture told him he wouldn’t like whatever her boss was saying. “Yeah, I can bump it up a bit… Today?” Another glance. “Well, yes, I have plans for today. Eric is here and… Oh.” More fiddling with her lapels. Eric would’ve grinned at her unconscious movement if he hadn’t been so disappointed. He wanted to show Brenna the house today. From her end of the conversation, it sounded like she’d be flying off again before either of them wanted her to leave.
“I’ll check on flights and call you back… I’ll tell him. Bye.”
Brenna slowly hung up the receiver, not looking at him. “Carey sends her best.”
“Carey sends an apology for taking you away from me so soon.”
“That too.” She scooted closer to him, sitting on her heels. “The wife wants some changes. Since she’s the one with the money, hubby does whatever she wants. I have to go back.”
“Today?”
Brenna nodded. “I’m sorry,” she said softly. “I really wanted to spend the whole weekend with you.”
She looked sad, and guilty. Eric refused to let her feel either way. He cupped her face in his hands and gave her a long, deep kiss. “Check on your flight. I’ll cook breakfast while you get ready.”
Brenna wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him again. “You’re wonderful, do you know that?”
“Yeah, I’m a prince. Now get off this bed before I change my mind and ravage you.”
* * * * *
Brenna held tightly to Eric’s arm as they walked into Sea-Tac Airport. She didn’t want to let him go. She’d had so little time with him lately, hopping all over the United States for her company instead of being with the man she loved. This weekend was supposed to be for them, not for a too-rich-for-her-own-good casino owner in Reno.
She already had her electronic ticket and boarding pass, so they bypassed the ticket counters. She walked slowly toward the security gate, trying to postpone her leaving as long as possible.
Ten feet from the gate, Eric pulled her to the side, away from the crowd making their way through security. Brenna went willingly into his arms and clutched him tightly.
