For that, she wrapped her arms around his shoulders and pressed her nipples against his chest as she kissed him. He slipped his hands down her back to her ass. Then he eased both hands down her panties to grip her cheeks.
This time Avery had to moan. Laz had her in the palms of his hands, and she liked it.
“Condoms. Where are they?” He kissed the side of her face and moved down to her shoulder to nip it.
Before answering, Avery pushed his jeans down his legs. She had to see him, all of him. She dropped her gaze long enough to be impressed by the sight. His jutting penis looked long and thick. She wrapped her hand around it, which made him grab her wrist.
“Condoms.” The desperation in his eyes couldn’t be denied.
She let him go. “Sit.”
Laz removed his jeans completely and sat on the edge of her bed looking like The Thinker statue except he kept fully engaged with her.
Avery removed an unopened box of condoms from her nightstand. As casually as she could, she scanned the expiration date at the bottom of the box. She’d purchased them as soon as she moved into her apartment, thinking that she would live freely now that she didn’t have to be under her parents’ thumbs. She chose to stay away from men…until now.
After verifying that she still had another year before she would have to replace her stash, she tore open the box and pulled out a string of condoms. When she felt Laz palming her ass again and massaging it, her hands shook, not out of nervousness. She wanted this man so badly.
“You want me to do that?” He pointed to her hands.
She shook her head. “I got you.”
Avery dropped down to her knees in between his legs. Staring at the length of him with a nest of light brown hair at the base and a bead of pre-cum at his tip, her mouth watered. She could only imagine pleasuring this man in every way possible. She would get what she could for now.
After opening the package, she rolled the thin plastic over the length of him. The farther down she went, the straighter his posture became. It took her no time to climb onto his lap, straddling him as she gripped his shoulders.
While keeping his stare on her, Laz skillfully aimed himself at her core. She impaled herself on him and didn’t exhale until fully seated.
Like she needed the assistance, Laz swept her legs around his waist and cradled her backside in his hands. Avery’s body took over and she started to undulate her hips, but stopped suddenly.
“Wait.” She coiled her legs around his waist. “Wait.” She shook her head. “Never happens. Not like this. Not this fast.” She gripped his shoulders as her stomach tightened into a ball.
Avery didn’t mean to curse, but since everything else in her body had gone out of control, she shouldn’t have been surprised that some profanity made its way out of her.
“Let it go.” Laz kissed her shoulder. He thrust his hips ever so slowly. “It’s okay.” He dragged his lips to her neck. When he reached her ear, he whispered, “Come.”
As though he commanded it, Avery’s body trembled. Her intimate inner walls constricted around his shaft, and she released a long, low moan. Until she relaxed her hands when her body came down from its high did she realize that she had embedded her fingernails into Laz’s shoulders.
“I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry.” She rested her head on his shoulder and licked the spots where she had left her mark.
“Why are you apologizing?” Laz eased her back, and then framed her face so that she could make eye contact with him, which she reluctantly did.
“I didn’t mean to hurt you.” She coasted her thumbs over the indented spots on his shoulders.
He shook his head. “You didn’t.”
“And I didn’t want to be the first.” She hoped he understood what she didn’t say out loud.
Laz smiled. “For you, it’s way better than coming last.” Then he winked. “Don’t ever apologize for feeling how you feel.”
Avery leaned her head back. “Oh, God, you have no idea how good looking you are.”
The statement got him to laugh.
His laughter pushed her to move faster. She ground herself down on him harder and gyrated her hips faster.
“You have me all night.” He kissed her. “I’m here for you.”
Even hearing that didn’t stop Avery. She hadn’t touched a man like this in a long time. She wouldn’t waste the opportunity.
Avery hovered over the crest of another climax. This man had no idea of the power he possessed. Not only could he jumpstart her fantasy career, but he did a hell of a job reminding Avery that the fire inside of her hadn’t been doused yet.
After her second and most explosive orgasm, Laz didn’t give her a chance to catch her breath before he stood with her still on him and placed her on her back on the bed.
“Let me drive.” He smiled as he gave her long, easy strokes that made her feel both relaxed and wound up at the same time.
She coiled her legs around his legs and curved her hips up to meet each one of his strokes. Laz moaned after she repositioned herself. She felt her body vibrate when he made the sound.
Just like she had done on stage, Avery stared at Laz in his eyes. She stroked his hair, damp with sweat, but still felt so good under her fingers.
“You are so big.” Avery wanted to put her hand over her mouth over that admission, but she couldn’t help what came out of her head.
Laz didn’t smile, didn’t laugh, didn’t even smirk. He kept his stare on her and kept his thrusts even, hard, and deep.
“This isn’t real.” Avery shook her head. “I’m going to wake up and you won’t be here. I’ll still be working at Uncle Pig’s and struggling in school.”
Instead of verbally answering her, Laz leaned down and brushed his lips over hers. Then he swept his tongue over her lips, the top one first before swiping her lower lip. With his tongue still out, he plunged it into her mouth.
Laz didn’t taste like bitter tea like she thought he would. He had a minty flavor to him like he must have popped a mint in his mouth before getting her back to her apartment.
He pulled back from the kiss. “Touch me.” He nodded. “Put your hands on my chest like this.” To illustrate, he cupped her breast and massaged it.
Avery put her hand to his chest and swept her fingers down to his nipple. As though mimicking her movements, Laz circled his large thumb around her nipple. The feeling had her arching her back and wishing the moment would never end.
Now feeling emboldened, she coasted her hands down to his ass. As she suspected, his firm cheeks barely moved when she squeezed them.
“I’m real. This is real.” He nodded. “I want you. Damn, I need you.”
Relief swept over Avery and she smiled when he made his statement. Then a small voice of doubt crept in her head. What if the sex had everything to do with getting her as a client rather than starting a real relationship with her? What if she put too much stock into this act than she should have? Maybe she should look at this moment as just that, a moment, an experience. Laz Kyson could probably get any woman he wanted. Why would he bother with a broke student?
Laz kissed her hard as though he wanted to banish the thoughts in her head that, this time, she hadn’t made audible. Then he slipped out of her and moved behind her. After easing his arm under her and sweeping her leg over his, he reentered her again from behind.
When he groaned, she gasped and reached back to grab a fistful of his hair. He held her shoulder while kissing the back of her neck and cheek. He used his other hand to hold her hip steady.
When he must have realized that she wouldn’t be going anywhere, especially after she pushed her ass back against him, he reached around and slid her clitoris between his index and middle fingers.
“Oh my God.” Avery gripped his hand that held her breast. Before she could stop herself, she came again. “You
are incredible.”
“You’re not so bad yourself.” Laz breathed heavily in her ear.
The man didn’t stop. Laz kept up his thrusting for what seemed like an eternity, and Avery didn’t mind. If he wanted to keep having sex with her and treat it like a job, she would let him. He felt incredible inside of her, and he made her feel like he couldn’t do without her.
Sweat coated both of their bodies. Even with the air conditioner on, Avery could have used some more cool air. Maybe Laz could take her from behind in front of an open freezer door.
“Close.”
Avery barely heard the word Laz growled in her ear, but she felt his leg shaking. Then he cursed in her ear. Before she knew it, he pulled out of her long enough to roll her back on her back and ease in between her thighs.
While keeping his stare on her eyes, Laz pumped harder and faster. From the way he gazed at her, Avery thought he wanted to say something. In her head, she imagined he wanted to bare more of his soul.
She held on to his arms and remained open to him. Just doing that tipped him over the edge. Laz came hard, grunting and pushing himself inside her until it felt like he had fused himself into her body.
When he collapsed on top of her, she held him tight. She didn’t care that the heft of his body limited her air supply. She needed this man. She didn’t realize how much she needed this experience until she looked into the man’s eyes across a crowded room and experienced a connection she had never felt before. Now she wondered if this would last. What will happen now?
Chapter 11
Laz had made a colossal mistake, and this time it had nothing to do with business. His old self crept into his head, the side of himself that his father had influenced. He could hear Bradley telling him to get his clothes on, get his stuff together, and go, leave this woman and to never look back. Clean break. Laz couldn’t do that.
Despite holding this gorgeous woman in his arms after such a wonderful evening, it couldn’t eliminate the guilt Laz still felt. When Avery sang that incredible song, seemingly right to him, emotions stirred inside him that he hadn’t experienced in a long time.
The song combined with the woman herself had Laz weakening his resolve. Even though he fought against having a physical relationship with a person who could be his first client, Laz could no longer deny the feelings he had since first seeing her.
Leaving her wouldn’t happen, shouldn’t happen. That wouldn’t take away the fact that Avery would have some expectations after this.
Avery stirred a little in his arms, but remained sleeping. Good. Laz still needed to process what all had happened and his next steps. When her ass brushed against his dormant penis, the motion ignited some lustful feelings again.
He looked over her body to the other side of the bed and spotted the box of condoms. He could slip out of bed and get them, but he didn’t want to jostle her. He did want to do something he didn’t get to do last night. If Avery woke up and decided that what she had done with him had been a huge mistake, he wanted to make sure to do everything he wanted to do before getting kicked out of her home.
Laz slid his arm from under her body first. Again, Avery stirred and moaned a little, but remained sleeping. He positioned himself on top of her body, and kept his upper body propped up over hers.
“Hey.” He kissed her forehead and the tip of her nose.
Avery moaned again and moved her head back and forth. He admired her body, something he couldn’t do last night. Her round breasts sat up high with chocolate-chip tips topping them.
He kissed her shoulders, going from one side to the other, eliciting another round of moans and writhing from Avery. He moved his mouth down between her breasts. No way could he skip these succulent mounds.
Laz massaged one breast. “Good morning.”
Avery took in a deep breath and exhaled through her nose, but didn’t speak, didn’t open her eyes.
He latched his mouth on to her other breast and circled his tongue around her nipple, making it hard. It reminded Laz when Avery pressed her breasts against him. She still smelled of a flowery soap aroma even though they had done a whole lot of sweating.
Thinking about Avery’s enthusiasm had him getting hard again. If she wanted to go another round, he would be up for a quickie session.
Laz moved over to her other breast and sucked and licked it while he massaged the one he had just laved.
“Mmm, Laz.” Avery smiled, but still kept her eyes closed.
Good to know that she thought of him when she dreamed of something sexy.
“Are you going to wake up?” Laz licked her soft skin down her midsection to her stomach.
He kissed across her lower abdomen, right above her cleanly shaven vagina. Laz pushed her legs apart, but he wouldn’t go any further until Avery acknowledged him.
“Avery.” He massaged her inner thighs. “Come on.” He kissed the soft flesh. “Open your eyes.”
When he nibbled her skin, Avery finally moaned and opened her eyes. She peered down and smiled. “Not a dream.”
Laz shook his head and parted her labia. When Avery spread her legs wider, he took that to mean he could keep going. He took one long, slow swipe from the base of her pussy to her clit.
“Oh, God.” Avery arched her back and drew her feet back. “So good.”
Laz used the tip of his tongue to circle her hardened nub, now getting hard the more he teased her. She tasted exactly like he imagined, like salted honey. He could drown in her essence and die a happy man.
When he felt her legs crowding around his head, he knew she liked his technique. When she gripped his hair, he knew she wanted more. He continued licking her and diving his tongue inside her as far as he could.
“Laz. Laz. Laz.” Her body trembled. “Yes. Yes!” She bolted straight up while holding the back of his head.
He didn’t need the encouragement to stay. He wanted to get her off in as many ways as possible before the glow of the euphoria wore off and sobered them both to their situations.
As soon as she settled against the bed, she blurted, “Inside. I need you inside me now.”
Laz didn’t need to hear anything else. He sat up on his knees and reached over to the nightstand for the condoms. As soon as he sheathed himself, Avery got on her knees and grabbed his shoulders.
“On your back.” She nudged him back.
“Yes, ma’am.” He smiled as he got on his back.
Avery straddled him while holding the base of his shaft. When she eased him inside of her tight channel, Laz gripped her hips.
“That’s it.” Laz nodded.
She rested her hands on his chest. “What a way to wake up.” Avery smiled. “I could get used to this.”
So could Laz. While he had his cock inside her, he had to think about the implications of trying to work with her and start a relationship, because at this point, he couldn’t turn back.
Avery leaned forward and planted a kiss on him. He wrapped his arms around her and held her against his body. This feeling, this life, he wanted all of it to last.
Laz met her gyrations with his thrusts until they both came.
“Oh.” Avery kissed him and smiled. “Perfect.” Then she glanced to the side and her eyes went wide. “Oh, shit!” She hopped out of bed.
For a brief moment, Laz suspected that Avery came to the conclusion that she had made a mistake sleeping with him.
“I’m late for class.” Avery’s completely nude body captured his full attention.
He sighed in relief. “I haven’t heard that line after sex since college.” He slid to the edge of the bed. “I meant what I said.”
Avery stopped at the bedroom door and looked back at him. “Which part? You’ve said a lot since I’ve met you.” She winked before ducking into the bathroom.
Laz snatched up his underwear from the floor and stepped into th
em as he headed to the bathroom. As much as he wanted to join Avery in the shower, he would refrain. Besides, he liked smelling her essence on him. He could wait to go back to his hotel room to shower and change.
He got to the bathroom door by the time Avery hopped into the shower and pulled the curtain covered in musical notes closed. He still saw her amazing body through the clear plastic.
“I don’t sleep with people I work with.” He leaned against the doorframe. “For that reason—”
“You don’t want to represent me anymore?” She stared at him as she bent over to turn on the water. She waited until he answered.
“Of course I still want to represent you. I believe in your talent.” He exhaled when he saw her smile and finally turn on the water. In order to speak to her seriously, though, he had to stop watching her running her hands up and down her naked form.
Damn, he had a point to make.
“So what’s the problem?” She raised her voice over the rushing water to speak to him.
“If you want me to manage you, we need to not have sex again. I’m going to do everything I can to get you into the music industry. The next thing we need to talk about is a contract.” He ran his hand over his hair and felt the messiness of it.
“You said you had a copy with you.” She slathered soap over her arms, chest, stomach, and down her legs.
“In the car. So you’re serious about moving on to the next step?” He had to make sure he didn’t waste his time or hers.
“Yes.” She rinsed off her body.
“Even if your parents don’t approve?” He could tell from Avery’s reaction when her parents showed up at her apartment that she couldn’t tell them about her dreams.
He didn’t want that to hold her back. She would be out in the public eye. If she needed their support, she had to get that now.
“I’m an adult.” Avery turned her back on the streaming water. “They’ll have to accept my decision.”
“And you understand that our physical relationship would have to stop?”
