Perfection: A Neighbor From Hell Novel

by R. L. Mathewson

  "Yeah right," she said, snorting her disbelief. "I'm sure you've been tossing and turning at night, trying desperately to get me out of your head," she said sarcastically.

  He chuckled as he ran his hands back down to her knees and with a simple move, slid them back up her legs and beneath the towel, earning an intriguing little gasp from Zoe. "I wouldn't exactly say I've been tossing and turning, but I will admit that you've starred in a few interesting fantasies that have kept me up at night," he said, groaning softly as his hands ran over warm smooth soft skin.

  Touching Zoe was like nothing he'd ever experienced before. He'd dated a lot of women in the past and none of them were as soft as Zoe. They were either too thin, covered in smooth muscle or slightly soft, but had perfect figures or he wouldn't have dated them. At least he'd thought they had at the time. Maybe they had, but right now nothing turned him on more than Zoe, a complication that he planned on working out of his system with plenty of sex until he grew bored with her and could return to his usual type and find the woman of his dreams.

  "You don't have to lie to convince me to do this," Zoe said, trying to shift back on the bed, but he wasn't having that. He gently cupped her bare hips and held her where he wanted her.

  "I may be a lot of things, Zoe, but I'm not a liar. You're not my usual type, I'll admit that," he said, not at all surprised when she simply nodded her agreement instead of acting hurt like a lot of women he'd dated in the past would have done, earning his respect. He appreciated her no-nonsense attitude. "Right now I want you, Zoe, but like you I'm not looking for a relationship," he partially lied.

  He just wasn't looking for a relationship with her.

  He waited anxiously for her to say something and finally after a minute she mumbled, "But I'm fat," she said, sounding so damn distraught that he had to fight back a smile.

  "And you're afraid that will turn me off?" he guessed after she became quiet once again.

  "Zoe," he sighed her name as he leaned forward and brushed his lips against hers, surprising her and just because he couldn't help himself he kissed her again, taking his time to taste her lips and damn near groaning when she moved her lips, hesitantly at first, against his.

  When she released her death grip on her towel so that she could fist her hands in his hair and she opened her mouth for his invasion he had to force himself not to thrust forward and bury himself to the hilt. It had been five years for her and he didn't want to scare her off with his desperation for her.

  One simple kiss and he was ready to explode. That had never happened to him before. He'd always been calm and collected during sex, making sure to cover all of the bases, foreplay, condom and an orgasm for his partner before he allowed himself one, but right now he was struggling not to fuck her hard for the relief he desperately needed. Had he ever wanted a woman more? He didn't think so and wasn't going to look too much into that at the moment since he was struggling to stay in control.

  "I missed this," Zoe moaned into his mouth.

  "Kissing?" he asked, groaning when she slid her warm little tongue against his.

  "Mmmhmmm," she said against his mouth as her hands slowly slid away from his hair and down his back only to come around the front and gently trace his chest and stomach, driving him out of his mind and making him wish she'd slide her hands a little south and trace something else that needed her attention.

  When her hands slid around to his back and down until they cupped his ass whatever control he had snapped. He deepened the kiss, devouring her mouth with more passion than he'd ever felt in his life. He ripped her towel away, ignoring her shocked gasp as he moved over her, urging her back up on the bed until he settled his weight on top of her, forcing her to lie back as he lost his goddamn mind.

  He ground his erection between her legs as he reached between them and took one large soft breast in his hand and squeezed it, making them both moan long and loud. She felt good....no, correction she felt fucking fantastic, especially when she spread her legs further to cradle him better.

  She ran her hands over his back, over his ass and back up to fist in his hair as he ground his erection between her hot wet slit. He was so tempted to pull back and shove his cock in her without a condom, something he'd never done before in his life, but even in his current state he wouldn't allow himself to do it no matter how much his body ached for it.

  "That feels so good," she said on soft groan. "More," she demanded as she covered his mouth with her own and rolled her hips up against him, making him smile. Seems his little tenant was a bossy little thing in bed, his favorite kind of bed buddy. He hated taking a woman to bed who just laid there or did whatever he wanted without question. He especially hated those little fake moans and groans that some of them did when he barely touched them because they thought it was hot. It wasn't. If anything it was really annoying and distracting.

  With Zoe he knew he could count on her making sure that she enjoyed herself, he thought as his eyes nearly crossed in his head as she suckled his tongue the same time she slid her soaking wet slit down to his balls and did this little twist and roll with her hips that had him panting and fighting for control.

  Five years was a long time to go without sex and he was going to make sure it was good for her, he decided as he forced himself to slow down and give her body the attention it deserved. With any other woman he would have viewed this simply as the steps he had to take if he wanted sex. With Zoe it didn't feel like a chore. With her he wanted to taste, touch, and learn every spot on her body.

  He gave her one last deep kiss before he broke off, pleased by her little whimper of protest as he kissed and licked his way down her neck. By the time he reached her breasts he was forced to shift his erection away from her because of their difference in height. As much as he missed the contact it was probably for the best. In another minute or so and he probably would have lost it like a kid and embarrassed the hell out of himself.

  He ran his tongue down the slope of one large pale breast, earning a loud groan that made his dick jump hungrily. After tracing his tongue around the large hard nipple he flicked it with his tongue before taking it into his mouth and suckled it while Zoe squirmed beneath him.

  She fisted her hands in his hair and tried to yank him away, but he wasn't having any of that. As much as it pained him to do this he was going to do it right. He was going to make sure that she never thought that he didn't want her. By the time he was through kissing, licking, and caressing her entire body she would know just how much she turned him on. By the time he was done worshipping her body she was going to be beg-

  "Fuck me," Zoe demanded, startling the hell out of him and somehow turning him on even more.

  "I'm getting there," he promised tightly, tracing his tongue to her other breast and licking the equally hard large nipple. "Just relax," he said soothingly.

  She whimpered as she moved restlessly beneath him. "It's been five long years," she stressed. "I'm ready. I'm beyond ready. If you don't get up here and fuck me I swear to god I will kill you," she hissed, leaving him with absolutely no doubt that she was ready, which was a good thing, because he was dying to be inside of her.

  But he needed to make sure this was really what she wanted first.

  "Are you sure?" he asked around her nipple.

  "Now, damn it!" she said, panting loudly.

  He gave her nipple one last lick before he raised himself off her so that he could sit back on his haunches and reached under the pillow for the little stash of condoms he'd stolen from her purse. Not that he'd taken them from her purse to make sure that all six were still there, they were. It just made sense to grab them and use them first and he was not secretly pleased that they were all there. He wasn't.

  As he grabbed one of the foil packets he realized he could still stretch this out and make it good for her. He'd take her slowly and stretch it out so that she would know that he wanted her. If she thought for one second this was just a pity fuck or that he was with her just to get laid, grante
d he was, but he was with her because he wanted sex with her, then she'd cut him off after this and chop it up to a mistake. He didn't want that. Hell, he needed her to want this to continue so that he could work her out of his system.

  Decision made, he opened the condom packet, pulled out the rubber and accidently ripped it apart, groaning as Zoe did the one thing that most women treated as a chore. Shock and disbelief tore through him as he looked down to find Zoe on her knees, bent over as she ran one hand up and down his length as she licked and sucked the tip of his erection, paying particular attention to the slit that was more than happy with the attention.

  "I missed this," she said on a dreamy sigh as she moved her mouth off the head so that she could lick the underside of his erection from the base to the tip before pulling it back into her mouth again.

  "Zoe," he said, gasping, as he dropped his head back and enjoyed her talented little mouth. A moment later he struggled with the desire to thrust into her mouth and his need to bury himself balls deep inside of her. When he opened his eyes and watched her beautiful round ass gently sway in the air as she worked him he knew what he wanted, needed more than anything.

  With a trembling hand he grabbed another condom and pulled back, but not before he allowed himself one slow thrust into her warm mouth. The moan she released around his cock had him struggling not to thrust back in, but he needed something else.

  When he pulled all the way out he nearly swore as Zoe's beautiful mouth tried to follow. Damn, she was an eager little thing, he decided as he took himself in hand and gently thrust back into her eager mouth one last time, to make her happy of course. He was a generous guy after all. Pulling away turned out to be harder than the first time, but somehow he managed. As he struggled to roll the stubborn condom down his erection Zoe got to her knees, cupped the back of his head and pulled him down for a hot kiss.

  "Demanding little thing," he growled approvingly against her lips as he worked the condom over his erection.

  There really was nothing better than a woman who knew what she wanted in bed and went for it. Never in a million years would he have thought that his little tenant was this aggressive. He was beyond happy that she wasn't going to be some meek little thing just lying back, spreading and letting him do whatever he wanted like so many of the women he'd slept with before.

  She reached down and ran her hand over his condom covered erection, giving it a gentle tug that had him hissing in a breath. He cupped her face with one hand as his other hand teasingly slid down her smooth back and over her luscious bottom, giving it a small squeeze before he moved it down between her legs. She shifted, opening her legs wider for him without any hesitation.

  Gently, he traced the wet slit with his fingertips, smiling against her lips as she tilted her hips and pushed back, taking his finger inside her tight sheath. He slid his finger in and out of her slowly, enjoying her little moans of pleasure against his mouth.

  "Get on your back," she demanded, against his mouth, making him chuckle.

  He may enjoy the fact that she was a bossy little thing in the bedroom, but that didn't mean he was going to let her call the shots.....at least not all the time and especially not their first time.

  "On your stomach, Zoe," he said, pulling away as he gave her bottom a gentle swat that had her licking her lips.

  Aw hell........

  He finally found a woman who liked her ass spanked. Something he'd have to remember later, much later. Right now he had other plans for her.

  "On your stomach," he said again, watching her and waiting to see if she was going to argue. So when she only glared at him after she sent a look of longing to his cock and got onto her stomach without an argument he was a little surprised, but then again it had been five years since she had sex. She was also an eager little thing, he remembered with a grin as he reached over her and grabbed a pillow.

  Chapter 17

  "Lift your hips, Zoe," Trevor said softly.

  Gripping the comforter, Zoe did just that as she worried her bottom lip. She could not believe she was doing this. Well, not the sex part. She'd always liked sex and over the past five years she'd really missed it. It was one of those things she'd hoped to do again, soon, really soon.

  What she couldn't believe was that her gorgeous landlord, a man totally drool worthy was turned on by her. She shouldn't even be a blip on his radar. Where he was hot and incredibly handsome she was, well..........

  She was not. Good looking that is. She knew she wasn't ugly, but she knew most people wouldn't rate her above a five and that was being generous. She was plain looking and still overweight. Even to attract a guy she hadn't been able to make herself go through with the makeover the lady at the makeup counter had offered. She just wasn't a girly girl and probably never would be.

  Although her new clothes and undergarments made her feel more feminine she knew she would never be someone guys tripped over themselves to get to or even someone like Haley, who seemed to make every guy smile and fall all over themselves to make happy. She was just average with absolutely nothing special about her and she'd accepted that fact and was even fine with it.

  One day when she had her act together she'd find a nice average guy and live in an average home and lead an average life. In all honesty it was something for a girl like her to aspire to. After her childhood and the last few years an average life with an average guy sounded like a fairytale. But for right now she was going to enjoy having this incredibly handsome man in her bed for as long as his moment of insanity lasted, because she knew one day he'd come to his senses and go find a woman in his league and once again forget that she even existed.

  Until then she was going to enjoy every minute with him.

  "Are you sure you're ready?" he asked in a husky voice as he placed the pillow beneath her stomach and gently encouraged her to lie back down.

  Was she ready?

  Was he kidding?

  "Five years, Trevor. Five long years," she stressed, licking her lips in anticipation.

  He chuckled softly. "I'll take that as a 'yes.'"

  She was about to open her mouth and demand that he get on with it when she felt him press a kiss against her left cheek. A moan may have escaped her. She'd never had a man pay so much attention to her bottom before and was surprised to discover just how much she liked it.

  He pressed a kiss to the right cheek before she felt him move over her and his erection slide between her cheeks.

  "Oh god," she choked out as he gripped her hip and ground himself against her. Even though all of his attention right now was on her bottom it was a different part of her that ached and throbbed in reaction.

  "Ready?" he whispered against her ear.

  Unable to talk at this point, she nodded.

  "Here we go," he said softly, pulling away. Seconds later he was positioned between her legs. "Nice and slow," he promised her as he pushed the large tip of his erection inside of her.

  "We're going to take this nice and slow," he said tightly to her or himself, she wasn't sure. All she knew was that nothing ever felt as good as Trevor Bradford sliding inside her.

  She wanted to thrust back, but his weight on top of her stopped her from doing anything more than lying there. It was pure hell lying there and needing him so damn badly. He was barely halfway inside of her when he pulled out and slid back in.

  "Nice and slow," he said through what sounded like clenched teeth as he continued his agonizingly slow pace that was killing her.

  At this point she couldn't even find the words to beg him to move faster and she desperately wanted him to move faster. He felt so good, so incredibly good.

  "You feel so damn good, baby," he said, turning her on more than she ever thought possible. She knew he didn't really mean the endearment, but right now she allowed herself to enjoy the way it made her feel.

  "I could stay in you forever," he said, groaning as he pressed hot wet kisses against the back of her neck as he slowly thrust inside of her. She'd never made
love to a man in this position, but there was something about having a man lying on top of her and taking her from behind and not being able to move that was intensely erotic.

  "Do you like this?" he asked, pressing a kiss against the corner of her mouth.

  "Yes," she said, tilting her head back so she could kiss him. The kiss started off slow, but soon turned hungry as Trevor slid his hands over her arms until their hands met and their fingers entwined.

  His slow pace started to become a little less controlled and a little more frantic as he started to thrust into her harder. One minute she was kissing him and loving the way he made her feel and the next she was crying out her release.

  She barely heard Trevor when he muttered tightly, "Next time, damn it. I'll make it good next time." Before she could register his words he was slamming into her from behind and she loved every single second of it.

  Before her five year stint she'd had a few lovers. They were attentive and she'd guess they were good lovers since they always made sure she found her moment, but they never made her feel like they were desperate for her or couldn't get enough of her. They'd certainly never lost control like Trevor was currently doing.

  "So fucking good," Trevor gasped, igniting the fire once again inside of her. It wasn't long before he had her screaming again as her body burst apart on an orgasm so intense that it left her gasping for air as little black spots danced around her vision.

  Trevor's deep groan of satisfaction had her biting back a pleased little smile. She knew she hadn't done much, but it was still satisfying to know that a man like Trevor had enjoyed being with her and clearly he had. There was no way she could have misread his enjoyment. She wondered if this was the best sex he'd ever had as well.

  "Thanks," he said, pressing a quick kiss to the top of her head as he pulled out and climbed off the bed.

  That was it? Thanks? After the mind blowing sex they'd just had? Granted she hadn't had sex in five years and a thirty second romp in the hay probably would have earned an eight by default on her Richter scale, but still.......
