“Well, the other could be arranged too,” Luca murmured.
“I bet you’d like that.”
“Oh, I can guarantee you would too, princess. My car’s this way.” Luca pointed to a simple black Buick. He opened the door for her, and Lily couldn’t stop the thrill of desire that coursed through her.
Sexy and chivalrous? Be still, my heart. Luca slid behind the wheel of the car and the engine purred to life at the turn of his key. They drove to the theater and parked. Luca came around to the door and opened it for her. Lily held his hand as they walked into the theater. It felt good to hold his hand. It was unnerving, for sure, but she liked it anyway.
“Are you sure you want to see the horror movie?”
“Are you going to keep me safe?” Lily asked.
“I’ll do my best.” Luca assured her.
“Then let’s watch the horror movie.”
Lily regretted the decision to watch the horror movie an hour into heads spinning, bad fake blood being spewed on the walls, and teenage girls screaming as a man with an obviously fake sword chased them. She sighed and drummed her fingers on the seat.
“Are you bored?” His mouth was barely half an inch from her ear, and she closed her eyes and bit her bottom lip at the shivers that coursed through her.
“Very.”
“Do you want to go?” Luca murmured, his lips closer still to the shell of her ear.
“Oh, yes.”
“Then let’s go.” He withdrew suddenly, and Lily groaned softly. Leaving the theater they went back to the car, and Luca drove them back to the restaurant. As he parked, Lily looked at him curiously.
“What are we doing?”
Luca seemed to be ignoring her as he came around to her door and helped her out. “Where’s your car?”
“Over there,” Lily pointed. “Why?”
“Mmm.” Luca hummed and took her hand.
They walked across the parking lot and as they came to her car, Lily paused. “What’s wrong?”
“Oh, sweetheart, nothing is wrong.” Luca turned to her and his roughened palm came to cup her cheek.
“Then why is the night ending?” Lily pouted, trailing her fingertips up his muscular chest. A gasp escaped between her lips as Luca pulled her into him, his grip rough against her hip.
“Because it has to. And because I want to kiss you,” he warned, his voice a rumble in his chest she could feel. Her nipples tightened painfully.
“Then kiss me, Luca.” Lily stood up on her tiptoes, trying valiantly to get closer to his perfect mouth.
“But if I kiss you, I don’t know if I can stop.” He lowered his head until only breath separated them.
“I don’t want you to stop.”
Luca groaned, and Lily forgot to breathe as his mouth touched hers. If his hand touching hers had infused him in her DNA, his lips against hers wiped out any other kisses she’d ever had. His lips were firm, yet soft, tender but demanding, and she was a woman lost. Her hands came around his shoulders, and she ground her body into him, greedily seeking more. She tangled her hands in the soft wisps of hair that brushed his collar and moaned as he pulled her in tighter.
His erection was hard against her lower belly and all she could think about was laying him in the backseat of her car and riding him until she was too sore to walk. As he pulled away from the sordid kiss, Lily heard herself mewl. “Don’t stop.”
“My mother would kill me.” Luca chuckled, pressing a kiss to her ear. “Goodnight, Lily. I’ll be thinking of you until I see you again. And I will see you again.” He kissed her heated cheek and whispered softly, “Goodnight.”
Lily instantly felt bereft as he walked away, and she contemplated running across the parking lot and slamming him against a car and begging him to have sex with her. Instead, she opened her car door and started the engine, her hands trembling as she put it into drive. The drive home was long, too long, and Lily was cranky with desire. The throb between her thighs was unbearable and each thump of her blood sang Luca’s name.
Stumbling into her apartment, she locked the door and leaned against it. Oh Luca De Soros… She realized with horror she hadn’t gotten his number and panic skittered through her until she remembered she could just get the number from Olivia. If he wants to see me again, that is…he ended things abruptly. I wanted more, so much more. My God, I would have screwed him right there in the parking lot.
She kicked off her heels and started upstairs. A knock at the door took her by surprise, and she hurried back to the door to peek through the hole. Luca stood there, his jaw clenching. Lily opened the door. “Luca?”
“I couldn’t stay away,” he whispered, barging into her tiny apartment and seeming to take up all the room. “Tell me to go, Lily. I’m no good for you.” His hands cupped her face and his thumbs brushed over her cheekbones. “Tell me to go.”
Lily stared at him, ready to bare her soul to the man she barely knew. “No.”
He kicked the door shut and it reverberated on the hinges. “I’m going to make love to you, Lily Halloway. I’m going to make your body never forget I’ve been there, and that you’re mine. Tonight, you’re mine.” His mouth crushed against hers, and Lily gripped his shirt as her knees wavered.
“Yes,” she breathed between kisses.
His hands left her face and skimmed down her body. Lily pressed herself tighter into him, and she squealed as his big hands gripped her ass and picked her up suddenly.
“Don’t. I’m too big,” she cried.
“You’re perfect…” He insisted, his hands still holding her weight. “Wrap your legs around me, Lily.”
Lily wrapped her legs around him, and she cried out as he pressed her against the door and kissed her again. His tongue tangled with hers, darting and dancing, teasing and suckling. Lily held onto him for all she was worth, her nails digging into his back, even through his shirt. His hips rocked into her, and she dug in harder.
“Where’s your bedroom?” he asked, his hands still gripping her ass.
“Upstairs.” Lily panted. “I can walk.”
“For now. Show me your bedroom.”
Lily led the way upstairs and pointed into her room. “There.”
“Get undressed and lie on the bed,” Luca demanded.
She shook her head, suddenly nervous around the incredibly beautiful man. “I can’t.”
“You can, and you will. I want to see every inch of your body. Then I’m going to touch you. Every inch of you. Until you’re begging my name,” Luca murmured, his mouth against her neck.
Lily gulped and her fingers skimmed the edge of her dress as she stepped back. “I’m not skinny.”
“So?” Luca shrugged and pointed at her dress. “Take it off.”
Lily was grateful that she’d actually remembered to wear her nice bra and panties today instead of her granny stuff. She slowly peeled the dress up, sucking in her soft stomach as she did so. Tossing it to the floor in a black puddle, she lowered her eyes to the floor and stood before him in her underwear.
“Look at me, Lily. You’re beautiful, and I want you, so badly right now. All I can think about is laying you back on that mattress and making you come.”
Lily looked up at him and shivered at the intensity of his darkened gaze. “You want me?”
“Do you need proof?” Luca’s hand came to the fly of his pants. “I’m happy to show you.”
“I need proof.” Lily salivated at the thought of seeing all of Luca.
Luca popped the button of his trousers and her eyes were greedily glued to his zipper as he inched it down slowly. The man didn’t bother with underwear, and his cock sprang free from the confines of his pants. Her mouth fell open, and she clenched her thighs together. Luca was impressive, and he was definitely very hard, just for her.
“Did I make you believe me?” Luca ground out.
Lily nodded, twisting her arms to reach behind her back and unclasp her bra. She hurriedly tossed the lace to the side and hooked her thumbs in
her panties. Shimmying them down, she turned and crawled up on the bed, lying back on her pillows.
“I’m ready.” She panted, realizing even as the words left her mouth she sounded needy and pathetic.
He laughed softly. “Not even close, sweetheart. I want you dripping wet for me.”
“I’m already there,” Lily moaned. “I want you now.”
“No.”
“No?” Lily propped herself up on her arms and stared him down.
“No. Not yet.” Luca began unbuttoning his shirt, and she couldn’t breathe as each button slipped free from the confines of the tiny buttonhole. Luca was ripped, chiseled, a veritable God with muscles on top of muscles. She fought the urge to lick each divot and indention. He shrugged off the shirt and his pants, socks, and shoes went next.
Lily’s eyes worshipped his body. It was obvious that he took great care of himself. “I want you.”
“Soon,” Luca promised, placing a knee on the bed.
Lily wantonly spread her legs. “Come here.”
“Tempting, but not yet. Do you have some condoms, Lily?” He pressed a soft kiss to her inner ankle, and Lily hissed at the electricity that coursed through her at the simple touch.
“Yes, top drawer of my dresser.” She winced thinking of him pawing through her panties and the color left her face as he pulled out her vibrator.
“I might have need of this.” Luca smiled, placing the vibrator beside the bed along with three condoms.
“Three?” Lily squeaked.
“Yeah,” Luca responded. “Three.”
Chapter Ten
If the Apartment is Rockin’…
His mouth descended to her ankle again, and Lily lost the ability to focus as he trailed slow, tender kisses up her thigh. Just as she thought he would bury his face into her wetness, he teased her with a flicker of his tongue and darted to the other thigh, trailing kisses down that leg.
“Damn you.” Lily panted. He laughed, and it infuriated her more. “Don’t laugh at me.”
“But you’re sexy when you’re mad. Roll over.”
Lily flipped to her belly and as his tongue traced circles on her calves, she clenched. “You’re teasing me.”
“Yeah.”
“I want…”
“Sweetheart, I know what you want, and I’m going to give it to you…later,” Luca breathed, nibbling the tender skin behind her knee.
“Ohhhh.” Lily couldn’t stop from moaning.
“Get on your knees and come to the edge of the bed.” Luca kissed her thigh.
Lily scrambled to do what he asked. “How do you want me?” She assumed he would put on a condom and have his way with her.
“Lean back against my chest,” Luca murmured, and Lily eased her legs apart and leaned back against his hard chest.
He kissed down the side of her neck and his hands cupped her breasts. “Mmm,” Lily hummed as his fingers plucked at her nipples.
“You’re so sexy,” he whispered, nibbling her shoulder. His hands swept ever lower, skimming over her belly, and then finally his fingers toyed with her pussy. She spread her legs wider, begging silently for him to touch her there. Her clit throbbed mercilessly, and she arched up with her hips, grinding against his motionless hand.
“Please, Luca,” she sobbed out, grabbing his hand and pushing his fingers between her damp lips.
“So wet.”
Lily reached up and grabbed his head, pulling his mouth to her shoulder. “Bite me again.”
“Like this?” He gently scraped his teeth against her skin, and she shuddered.
“Yes,” she moaned. She arched into his hand, setting the pace for his fingertip circling her throbbing clit. His other hand came back to her breast, and he rolled her nipples between his fingertips. The three sensations brought her closer to the precipice of orgasm. “Oh! Don’t stop, Luca,” she pleaded.
His fingers moved faster and his lips and tongue worked at her neck and shoulder. Lily’s head fell back against his chest, and she rocked into his fingers faster and harder, seeking her release. The powerful orgasm overtook her at last, and she shuddered forward onto her hands and knees, aftershocks coursing through her quivering thighs. “Luca!”
He caressed her hip. “I need you.”
“Then take me.”
She looked back over her shoulder as he ripped open the condom and rolled it over himself. His fingertips were bruising as he gripped her hips firmly. Lily bit her bottom lip as he positioned the head of his cock into her pussy. He pushed deep into her, and she sobbed out in pleasure as he buried himself to the hilt in her heat with one firm thrust.
“Yes!” she screamed. “Take me.”
Luca gave her no mercy as he took her body, each thrust powerful and firm, his thighs slapping into her ass with a satisfying thud. Lily gripped the comforter and buried her screams into the mattress. She came around him again, tightening and quivering with pleasure. Luca gripped her hips harder, and she loved the slight pain with all the pleasure. She knew she’d have bruises from his grip tomorrow, but she didn’t care. She wanted him, wholly and completely.
“Come again,” Luca demanded, his voice coarse and harsh.
“Yes!” Lily slid a hand between her legs, and she toyed with her clit, circling and rubbing the sensitive nub as he pounded into her.
His movements became faster and harder, and Lily could barely catch her breath. As he pumped into her again, a rough, shuddering motion that signaled his release, Lily rubbed her clit harder and screamed out as she followed him to ecstasy.
Lily felt boneless and as he withdrew, she collapsed on her belly. He disappeared into the bathroom, and she could hear the sink running. Her eyes slipped closed, and she dozed. Oh, Luca, you were the sex I was after…
She barely opened her eyes as Luca shifted her on the bed, and she curled into him instinctively as he lay beside her. “You feel good,” she murmured, yawning and snuggling into him.
“Ah, Lily,” he murmured, pressing a kiss to her head.
Lily had never really been one to like a guy staying over unless they were dating, but something about Luca just felt right. She didn’t want him to go, and she didn’t have the energy to tell him to stay, so she draped her body over his. His heartbeat strummed in her ear and soon she knew nothing but the silence of sleep.
At some point in the night she woke to feather soft kisses to her face. “Luca?”
“I’m here,” he whispered.
She lost herself in his kisses and woke quickly as his mouth grew insistent upon hers. The desire she’d felt earlier sprang to the surface, and she clung to him. He’d promised they’d need three condoms, and he seemed ready to make use of the second. Lily let herself go in the moment of passion, not considering how she’d feel tomorrow. No, it was one of those times when the only thing that mattered was the two of them tangled between the sheets of her bed. The rest of the world ceased to exist.
All she could feel were his roughened hands worshiping her flesh, his mouth nipping and biting along her neck, and his cock pressing along her thigh. “Don’t stop,” she breathed weakly.
“I couldn’t even if I wanted to,” he promised.
Her nipples hardened in the cool of the room, and as his warm mouth ensnared them, she cried out in pleasure. His fingertips teased down her belly, and he shifted to her side, his mouth claiming hers again as he stroked her heat. First one finger dipped inside her, then two, a slow stroke upward and a withdrawal, to circle around her clit and repeat the motion.
Her breath hitched as he moved faster, his tongue mimicking his hand. Soon she forgot to breathe. Crying out hoarsely as she came, his name was the only thing on her lips. Gentle kisses were pressed to her neck, and he held her as she came down from the dizzying height.
“I want you.”
Lily gripped his shoulders and pulled him down for another kiss. “Then I’m yours.”
She could barely make him out in the dusk as he slipped off the bed to put on a condom, but soo
n he was back, and Lily opened her legs to welcome him.
“I want you to ride me,” he growled.
Lily shivered at the heat in his voice and crawled to her knees as he lay back on the pillows. She carefully straddled him and moaned as his cock slipped deep inside her. Planting her hands on his chest, she rocked up and down, her motions frantic as she took him. His hands came to her hips, gripping her tightly again, and she relished the roughness. Luca was everything she’d ever wanted in a lover, fiery, passionate, rough but tender all at the same time.
The realization that he was perfect rocked her even as she came undone around him. She panted and leaned back, a guttural groan coming from her throat. She shrieked as he rolled them suddenly, pinning her body with his own.
“Don’t stop,” she begged.
“I’m not.” Luca slowed his thrusts and kissed her softly.
“More.” She panted.
“Let me love you.”
Lily knew then that something had shifted between them. She couldn’t say she was in love with Luca, but the way he made her feel was different than anyone else ever had. She clung to him, burying her face in his shoulder, and tears filled her eyes. What the hell is wrong with me?
Luca pulled back, as if somehow knowing she was scared and sad. “Lily?”
He couldn’t see her face, but she smiled brilliantly anyway. “Yeah?”
“Do you want me to stop?”
She shook her head no and pulled him down to kiss her. “No,” she breathed against his mouth.
Tears leaked from the corners of her eyes as he claimed her, each slow, aching thrust into her body burning through her defenses until she lay stripped bare before him. She’d never had a lover who had undone her so completely, and the somber realization that she might never again broke her heart.
She kissed him again, her tongue dancing with his, and she twined her legs around his waist, holding him close. He groaned her name into her mouth as he came, and she held him until he stilled. He came up on his forearms, and Lily shifted her head away from him.
