He places a bowl on the sink with a grimace. “This updated version of Hope & Faith Ink sounds incredible.”
I snort out a laugh as I step up grabbing a tea towel and start to dry the dishes like this is the most normal thing for us to be doing. “Doesn’t it just? I’ve thought about how I wanted to expand the business once it was successful. But it’s nothing more than a fantasy.”
Sinking into myself as he turns back to the dishes, I feel a little sad at the thought. Xander leans in against me with a warm smile. “The thing about fantasies is that they can become a reality.”
I snort out a laugh. “I don’t need to know which of your fantasies have become reality, sir.”
He grins mischievously as he continues to wash the dishes. “All I’m saying is a Lara Croft costume would look great on you.”
I burst out laughing and flick him with the tea towel. “If you think for a second I would go for Croft over Wonder Woman, I’m gonna have to terminate our relationship.”
His eyes widen as he faces me. “Our relationship? We’re in a relationship now?”
I widen my eyes, throwing my hands in the air in shock. “That’s not what I meant.”
He quickly reaches out grabbing and pulling me to him. His body presses against mine as he looks into my eyes, my arms wrapping around his neck while we stare at each other. I feel it, the atoms in the air changing, the chemicals in my body altering and igniting as I stare at him. He lights a fire inside of me. I don’t know how, I don’t know why, but Xander makes me burn for him so hot I might burst into in flames at any second.
He leans in, his lips crashing against mine. One hand smooths across my lower back, pulling my body into his as the other grips onto my hair, tightly, just the way I like. Flinging the tea towel to a place I don’t even know, my hands rush around his neck as I hold him to me, just needing him. Our tongues dance in a harmonious rhythm as we kiss frantically. My body tingles and throbs as he starts walking me backward. I don’t know where I’m going, but my ass hits the bench behind me as I moan into his mouth while his hands slide under my ass and he hoists me up. I don’t hesitate, my legs wrapping around his waist, my pussy pressing right against the seam of his jeans, his rock-hard erection pushing into me as I gasp into his mouth. This is hot, this is intense, and I want every second of it. I have since the moment Xander walked into my shop all that time ago.
He spins, carrying me as he walks. The thing is he has no idea where to go. So, I giggle into his mouth, steering him. He takes the hall, and I lead him to the last room at the end.
My room.
With our lips frantically locked, he walks me inside, then kicks the door shut with his foot. Energy swarms inside of me, my emotions running havoc as I pull back looking into his eyes when he stops at the edge of my bed.
Alone at last.
ALEX
My heart hammers in my chest, the idea of taking this to the next level with Tomi before she knows who I really am doesn’t sit well with me. But the way she’s looking up at me right now, the way her eyes glisten in the dim light of the moon shining in through the window, she’s a goddess, and I can’t help myself.
She’s irresistible in every damn way.
My hands run up her waist as her arms stay linked around my neck. I lean in pressing my lips to hers, needing to taste her berry flavor once more. She’s fucking delicious as I kiss her with all the gusto that I can muster. My cock throbs in my jeans, wanting her, needing her. I’m not sure if we’re heading in that direction, but fuck my body is aching for her right now. I’ve wanted to be inside Tomi since the first moment I laid eyes on her.
I wanted to take her there and then.
It’s primal, it’s animalistic and carnal but true.
She’s the most gorgeous woman I have ever met inside and out, and when I got to know her, truly know her, it only made holding out even harder. I’ve needed her for two long years and now, as I kiss her, my cock hardens against the seam of my jeans awkwardly making me uncomfortable. But I won’t change my movements because kissing her like this is a fucking heaven I don’t want to fall from.
Suddenly, her hands snake down from my neck, skimming over my arms as she slides in under them and her fingers tickle the hem of my tank top. I smirk against her mouth as she starts to lift my top. I break my mouth from hers, lifting my hands in the air and let her pull it free from my body. Her eyes shift to my bare chest. It’s not like she hasn’t seen it before. She’s worked on me for countless hours tattooing my skin, but it is like it’s the first time she’s truly been able to look and admire me without it being a workplace infraction. Her lips turn up as her hand slowly glides down the center of my stomach, her fingers tracing the lines of my defined abs as she gnaws on her bottom lip.
“You’re stunning,” she murmurs.
I let out a stifled laugh, bringing my hand up to caress her cheek. “You should see how I view you.”
Her long, thick lashes blink as she glances up at me through them, her gorgeous green eyes staring right at me, sending a shockwave straight to my impatient cock. “Turn around,” I demand, my voice low and husky.
Her breath catches in her throat as she swallows hard, then gently turns, kicking off her shoes. My hands slide, sensually up her arms. Goosebumps litter her skin as I trail my fingers up to her shoulders, giving them a tender squeeze. I lean in behind her, just enough so she can feel my erection pressing into her ass while I grab the side zipper of her dress and slowly, tantalizingly slowly, pull it down.
Her arm moves up to wrap around the back of my neck, giving me easier access to the zipper and aids in pulling me closer to her. My lips dip down to her bare shoulder as I press my mouth to her burning skin. The only noise in the room is her heavy breathing and the slow descent of the zipper.
The atmosphere in the room is electro-charged with energy, the lust surging through the air is setting this place on fire as I move my hand up and gently slide the edge of the shoulder strap off her skin. It falls easily, and I repeat the process with the other side as she drops her arm from around my neck, letting her dress fall to the floor at her feet. My cock jerks in my pants seeing the vision before me, her ass pert and round in a red lacy thong and matching red strapless bra. A low growl erupts from my chest as I grab and spin her to face me. Her ample breasts pushed up and perfect. I lean down, kissing above her chest as my hands snake out around her back, fumbling for the bra clip. With one hand, I unclip it, and the red bra falls like a scrap to the floor, freeing her perfect fucking nipples.
I’m not sure I can hold on much longer. “Goddamn, you’re killing me, Tomi,” I groan making her laugh angelically.
Little devil.
Her hands come out snaking down to grab at my belt buckle, she frantically undoes it while her lips come in to kiss mine again. She kisses me while my hand can’t control itself and caresses her breast. She feels like fucking heaven, but she has no idea I’m her hell. Her hands make quick work of my belt as she opens the buckle, and then her fingers fumble with my button and zipper as we kiss passionately. She unzips me, which is hard with my cock pressing like a greedy fucker needing attention to escape its confines. When she does, my cock springs free, and my jeans fall to the floor. I kick off my shoes as she breaks free from me, taking a step back and looks at my length.
I smirk.
She’s always so inquisitive, my girl.
Tomi raises her brow, looking back up at me and lets out a small chuckle. “You’re exactly what I was expecting.” I tilt my head in question. “Perfect.”
Letting out a laugh, I reach forward, grabbing her tightly and spin her toward the bed. She giggles as we collapse on the mattress. I roll her onto her back, me on top of her as I pin her to the bed. She smiles up at me with adoration in her eyes. I love how she’s looking at me right now.
I lean in pressing my lips to hers. A jolt, that spark ignites inside of me as I start to move. She squirms at my touch, and I know she’s just as needy for pleasure as I
am. So, I wriggle my way down her body while she stays at the top of the bed. I slide in between her legs as she spreads them wide for me.
I nuzzle into position as she glances down at me, that red bandana still in her hair looking as gorgeous as ever. “You fond of these panties?” I ask with a grin.
“If you rip them, I’ll—”
I rip them on the side of her leg, making her moan out her disapproval.
“Well, I guess I’ll just have to buy new ones then, won’t I?”
She giggles as I rip the other side and slide them off her.
She shakes her head, rolling her eyes as I lean down, kissing along the top of her pussy. She writhes against my movement, but I continue as my tongue sneaks out and flicks against her clit. She arches up off the bed, her hands fisting in the sheets as she lets out a soft whimper. I love how responsive she is to me. I flick her clit again as I bring my hand down and massage the side of her thigh, moving my fingers closer to her pussy.
Tomi moans lightly under her breath. I know she’s trying to keep quiet, so we don’t wake Levi. I need to remember that too.
I slide a finger gently inside her, using her juices to work her up. My skin slickens in sweat already from simply how good she tastes. She’s sweet and salty, and it’s making it so hard for me to control myself, but I need to work her up first. My main priority is to make sure that Tomi’s satisfied.
Her needs will always come first.
Always.
I push a little higher inside of her while flicking my tongue on her clit at the same time, making her gasp. Her back arches high off the bed, her fingers digging into the bedsheets as she pants with heavy breaths. Her entire body shudders, slickening in a fine mist of sweat. I know she’s close, so I need to work harder, no matter how much my cock’s throbbing. My tongue works at full speed to get her there. I flick, spin, and rotate working Tomi to her climax. Her panting breaths echo through the room as she gets closer and closer. Her pussy tightens around my finger as she inhales, her body curving off the bed dramatically. Her entire body shudders. She’s beautiful to watch as she climaxes hard, her head swinging to the side as she pants it out.
“Fuck, Tomi, you’re stunning when you come.”
She stifles a laugh as her limbs flop on the bed, completely spent, but I’m not done with her yet.
“I’ve never come like that before. So, feel free to do that whenever you want to,” she gushes in a hushed voice.
I lean in kissing her thigh, then slowly make my way up her tummy, pressing feather-light kisses as I go. She catches her breath while my cock throbs so damn hard I can hardly think straight. I slide up her body, then my eyes meet hers—they’re hooded and so full of lust the sight takes my breath away. I lean in pressing my lips to hers, her tongue slides into my mouth, and I love she isn’t one of those girls who’s afraid to kiss me after I’ve been down on her.
She wraps her legs around my ass, edging my cock closer to her pussy—the greedy little minx—but I won’t deny her. My hands reach out grabbing her hands and thrust them back to the bed on either side of her head, pinning them by her wrists. I look down into her eyes, hers wide in delight as I bite down on her bottom lip. Her hips rock up into me, the tip of my head sliding inside her just a fraction, enough to make us both moan at the feeling, then I lean down kissing her strongly.
She wants this.
I want this.
I want her.
So, I don’t hesitate any longer and thrust inside her. She’s like a silky, warm vice gripping me so damn tight around my cock I can’t help but moan. I have to still for a second to control myself. Panting hard, I drop my head to her shoulder, gripping tightly on her wrists, letting her know I have the power, and she’s merely holding on for the ride.
She rocks her hips up into me, letting me know I don’t have all the power after all. My girl’s a feisty one as I chuckle pulling back, looking into her eyes, and thrust deep inside of her. Her eyes glaze over as she tries to hold in a whimper. Her fingers wriggling like she’s itching to touch me, and she will, but not until she comes again.
I pull back, almost all the way, then thrust deep inside her again, rotating a little to make sure I hit the right spot. Her eyes stay focused on me, making the energy in the room ignite. My skin prickles at watching her face contort with the pleasure I’m giving her. My cock swells inside her as the pressure builds in my balls. The tingling starting in my toes as the pins and needles run down my spine.
I thrust again, deeper. She lets out a moan, then quickly bites her bottom lip like she’s trying to contain herself. So, I work faster, bringing her to the place she needs to be. Being inside of her is everything and nothing like I thought it would be. It’s so fucking much more. Tomi feels like heaven and hell wrapped up in one feisty little package, and as I thrust up inside of her, she quivers in delight.
I tighten my grip on her wrists, leaning down next to her ear. “Come for me, Tomi,” I murmur, then bite her earlobe, sucking it into my mouth.
She gasps as I move my lips to her neck and run my teeth along her slickened skin. She shudders against me, panting breathlessly. Her back arches off the bed as her eyes close, and she shakes uncontrollably letting me know she’s right on the cusp. I thrust again, deeper, making sure to push at just the right angle. It hits its intended target, and she moans, her pussy gripping around my cock, making me clench my eyes tight to stop myself from unloading inside of her. I’m not ready for this to be over just yet. She climaxes hard, quivering, all while trying to keep her whimpers to an inaudible level as she rides through the wave of pleasure.
She pants heavily, and when I know she’s made it through, and her body relaxes, I let go of her wrists, moving my hands to her hips and flip us over. Her eyes widen as she steadies herself on top of me, and she nestles in over me. She grins, liking that I’m now giving her control.
“Now you’re in the lead, Tomi, do with me as you will.”
A mischievous glint crosses her face as she starts to rock on top of me, the different change in position making my balls pull up almost instantly. She leans forward, her nails pressing into my chest, the red tips marking my flesh causing my skin to ripple in goosebumps. I like her being rough with me. She rides me hard, fast, unrelenting, as my hands move to her waist to help aid her movements up and down.
Fuck, she feels good like this.
Seeing her breasts bounce up and down as she rides me and the faces she’s making, she’s so fucking perfect, I can barely constrain myself. She twists her hips in just the right way. She knows what she’s doing, she’s taking charge of this, and fuck, I’m going to let her.
My fiery girl, getting all worked up again is just what I need right now. Her nails dig into my chest, into the artwork she’s placed on my skin, I can’t help but be turned on further by knowing that as she rocks on top of me.
She grinds into me. The sensation starts at the tips of my toes as my spine radiates with pins and needles. My balls pull up, warning me of an impending explosion as I begin to moan.
Her body begins to tremble letting me know she’s close too. So I move one hand from her hip to her clit and start pressing, rotating on it fast. She arches her back with a long moan, and it’s all I need. Her pussy tightens around my cock, sending my balls into spasm. Tomi digs her nails into my flesh, possibly drawing blood as the pressure builds, and I groan. With a shudder, I feel the pressure reach boiling point, and then she grinds down on me again causing me to explode my hot cum inside of her the same time her pussy clamps down on me, and she shudders out her climax.
“Fuck, Tomi,” I moan as she falls on top of me, her head in the nook of my neck and shoulder. My hands rub up her back as we both pant while coming down. Closing my eyes, I turn my head kissing her cheek as she lays in my arms relaxing.
“If that’s what sex with you is like, I don’t think we’re ever going to leave this room,” she mumbles.
I chuckle as she raises her head to look at me. I swipe the hai
r from her face and caress her. “I think Levi might have something to say about that.”
She glances at the wall as if she can see right through it. “Do you think he heard?”
I tighten my hand on her cheek. “No, we’re good.”
She relaxes her muscles and looks at me, her face glowing like a damn angel. “Thank you,” she whispers.
My brows knit together as I tilt my head. “What for?”
“For being so understanding… about Levi… about how my life works. Not all men are like you, most don’t understand at all.” She rolls off me, then snuggles into my side.
I know she’s thinking about ‘Alex’ when she says that. Goddammit!
“Tomi, there’s nothing to be understanding about. Levi’s a great kid. I couldn’t imagine being here and him not being a part of this.” Everything I say is true. I want to be here, I want to be a part of their lives. I do think Levi’s a great kid, and Tomi is amazing. I’m just not too sure about what will happen when she finds out, or if she’s going to want to keep me around or not.
She looks down at our naked bodies with a questioning brow, making me chuckle. “Well, Levi won’t be a part of… this.” I wave my hand around, making her giggle. “But you know what I mean. He’s a part of you, and I adore every part of you.”
She leans in pressing her lips to mine softly, then moves back nuzzling into my side. With Tomi laying in the nook of my arm as we bask in the afterglow, I can’t help but feel like a fraud. Everything about what we did was fucking euphoric. She’s undeniably the most perfect woman I’ve ever met, and yet I’m living this double life with her. She’s resting peacefully unaware that I’m lying to her. Guilt flows through me in tidal waves of regret.
