Fortune's Promise: A Fortune Story

by Karen Erickson

  “You have no idea what you do to me, do you?” He approached her steadily, so close she lay back on the pillows and he straddled her, his knees on either side of her hips. He tugged the sheet from her fingertips, revealing her lush flesh to his gaze and he sighed in appreciation.

  “This is probably not a very good idea,” she said, her voice shaking. “I should leave.”

  “You’re not going anywhere.” Tanner dipped his head, swiped his tongue across one pebbled nipple and she arched into his mouth. “You don’t want to go anywhere.”

  He licked her nipple again and again, drew it into his mouth and sucked. His hand came up to squeeze the neglected one, thumb and index finger rolling and tugging on the nipple until it was a hard point. The slightest pinch from his fingers and she gasped, her body trembling so he pinched harder. He sucked hard on the nipple in his mouth, his teeth nibbling and then pressing down with the edge of his teeth, testing her. She cried out, plunged her hands into his hair as if to keep him there.

  Maddie seemed to like it a little rough. Very interesting.

  Quickly he adjusted himself, tearing the sheet away from her body and settling between her legs. Dampness glistened between her thighs and he smiled, knew she was as aroused as he was. Damn if he could deny any of this, the strong attraction between them, the way her touch, how she looked at him drove him out of his mind.

  “Maybe I should take a shower.” She touched the top of his head, her fingers curling into his hair as if they couldn’t help it.

  He closed his eyes, enjoying her touch, her fingers rubbing his scalp. His cock surged against his jeans, and he wished like hell he’d taken them off.

  “No shower. You’re fine. You smell delicious.” He rubbed his face against her crotch, felt her body stiffen at his first touch and then slowly relax.

  “I’m a sweaty mess,” she murmured, fingers still playing with his hair.

  “So am I.” He moved away from her, sat on his haunches and tugged at her legs. “Roll over for me, baby.”

  Her brows furrowed. “Huh?”

  Tanner lightly slapped the side of her thigh. “Roll over, let me see that pretty ass of yours.”

  “Tanner.” She shook her head, looking embarrassed. “Are you serious?”

  He bent forward, his face hovering above hers. Trying to ignore the wash of pleasure that came over him when she said his name. “Don’t ever doubt me, Maddie. Now roll over.”

  She did, and he admired the slope of her back, the sexy round shape of her ass, her long legs. He stood, shucking his jeans and then rejoined her, grabbing her legs to adjust her position, propping her onto her knees.

  Touching the rosy flesh between her thighs, his fingers sunk into her cunt with ease. She was wet, responsive and he teased her there, his fingers dipping inside of her before sliding out to play with her clit.

  “Can you hear that?” Her creamy cunt was noisy with her juices, the sound filling the room, filling his head. “You’re so wet, Maddie, it’s fucking unbelievable.”

  “Oh God,” she moaned into the sheets, her face buried against the mattress and he couldn’t help but chuckle.

  “Don’t be embarrassed. I think it’s damn sexy how aroused you are.” He did. It filled him with a sense of power that he was the one who did that to her. He moved his hand away from her, realized he couldn’t wait to take her, fuck her senseless, make her scream his name.

  “Please.” She wiggled her ass in his face, her glistening folds beckoning him and he had a flash of inspiration.

  He wanted to make his little princess beg for it.

  “Please what?”

  A little cry of frustration escaped her and she wiggled her ass again, spreading her knees wider. “I-I need you.”

  “Need me to do what, Maddie? This?” Tanner traced her entry, then thrust a finger deep inside, making her moan. “Or this?”

  He removed his finger and replaced it with his tongue, tasting her, driving his tongue deep inside.

  “Oh!” She bucked against him, pushing her fragrant pussy into his face, and he smoothed his hands over her ass, held her in position.

  “Tell me what you want, Maddie,” he whispered against her. Her legs trembled around him and he smiled. “I can’t do anything unless you tell me what you want.”

  She whimpered, her hips rotating, upper body slumped like a heap on the bed, ass waving in the air. Damn it he wanted her to beg, wanted her to tell him exactly what she wanted him to do to her.

  He was desperate to hear it.

  “Lick me,” she said, her voice muffled against the mattress.

  “You want me to lick you?” He did so, his tongue moving in even strokes and her thighs trembled, her entire body quivered. He flipped over so he was on his back, her pussy directly above him and he pushed down on her ass, brought her into contact with his mouth.

  “Oooooooh,” she squealed and relaxed into him, letting him eat her like a man starved. He felt like a man starved, consumed with the need to taste, to touch, to take, to fuck. Only Maddie.

  Nuzzling her with his nose, he drove his tongue into her again and again, her inner walls clenching, as if trying to capture his tongue and keep it there. He reached up, traced a finger across her puckered hole and she jumped at the contact.

  “Want me to stop?” His finger hovered above her ass.

  Maddie shook her head, rubbed against his chin with her juicy cunt. He touched her forbidden hole again, swiped his finger across it and she twitched.

  “You like that?” He played with her clit with his tongue and she sighed in unmistakable pleasure.

  “Yes. Don’t stop, please.”

  Tanner continued to flick her clit with his tongue, rub against her tight hole with the tip of his finger and she writhed against him, her movements frantic. He sucked her clit between his lips, pushing his finger into her ass and without warning she let go, the waves of her climax making her legs clamp hard on either side of his head, her entire body shuddering around him until her orgasm subsided.

  The urge to ram his cock deep inside her was strong and he moved away from her, went to his knees behind her. Her body was flushed from her orgasm and she collapsed against the mattress, her breathing erratic. He ran a hand over her buttocks, down her leg, unable to stop touching her, wishing like crazy he had protection.

  “You’re sure you don’t have any condoms?” Just looking at her naked body was driving him insane. He wanted to be inside that body. Now.

  Maddie rolled over onto her side, her gaze meeting his. “I’m on the pill, I’m safe.”

  Hope rose within him and he tried not to get ahead of himself. “I can’t remember the last time I didn’t use a condom.”

  “You’re clean?”

  Of course she would question him. The media made it look like he had fucked half of L.A. Hell it felt like he’d fucked half of L.A. He’d always used protection though. Paula had been so paranoid about becoming pregnant she’d been on the pill and insisted he use a condom every time they had sex.

  The thought of sliding deep inside Maddie’s body with no barrier between them, just the meeting of flesh on flesh made his heart race, his cock throb even harder.

  “I’m clean. I swear.” He crossed a finger over the vicinity of his heart. “Scout’s honor.”

  She shook her head, a tiny smile curving her lips. “I doubt you’ve ever been a scout.”

  He watched her in amazement. Finally, she seemed comfortable in her skin, in her element. He decided then to take this to the next level.

  “Get on your hands and knees, Maddie.” He kept his voice low and controlled, excitement raging through his veins at what he was about to do.

  She didn’t even hesitate, just went right into position, wagging her ass towards him. He used every ounce of control he had to keep himself in check and not attack her like he wanted.

  “You’re not going to try and leave, are you baby?” He crept towards her, settled directly behind her on his knees, his cock bobbin
g eagerly towards her waiting pussy. He caressed her ass, her skin smooth as silk beneath his palm and then he smacked her lightly, making her squeal. “Are you, Maddie?”

  “N-no.” Her voice quivered, and she visibly trembled.

  “Good.” He smacked her again, just for the hell of it and she jumped, her skin turning red from his hand. “Are you ready for me? Because I’m not going to be gentle.”

  Tanner couldn’t be even if he wanted to.

  “I’m ready,” she breathed.

  He positioned himself, wrapped his fingers around his cock and guided it towards her. He parted her folds, rubbed the head against her clit and she shuddered.

  “Feel good?”

  “Yes,” she whispered, hissing when he teased her entry with the tip of his cock.

  “You want more?” He thrust within her, the barest inch and she backed against him, taking him a little farther in.

  God she felt amazing. Her velvet heat engulfed him, tight, wet. He slipped deeper inside of her, wanted desperately to stay, but he also wanted to tease.

  He wanted to make Maddie beg for his cock.

  When he withdrew she followed him with her ass. “Please,” she whimpered.

  “Please what, Maddie? Please give me your cock? Please fuck me? You have to tell me what you want.” He hunched over her, his mouth close to her ear and she shook her head, bit down hard on her lower lip.

  Tanner moved back into position, slid his hands up and down the curve of her ass, her beautiful pink folds beckoning him to fuck her and get it over with. She had without a doubt the prettiest pussy he’d ever seen.

  When she didn’t speak, he slapped her ass again. “Say it, Maddie. The only way I’ll give it to you is if you say it.”

  She paused, he could practically hear her brain working and finally she said the words he wanted to hear.

  “Please fuck me.”

  Her voice was thin, desperate and it touched something deep within him. He slipped inside of her to the hilt, and her gasp made him smile with satisfaction.

  “Say my name, Maddie.” He began to thrust within her, filling her completely over and over, his balls brushing against the curve of her ass. The connection of their bodies condom-free made him shudder and he groaned from the sensation. Already his orgasm was close, had been close since he woke up with Maddie next to him and he wondered if he’d ever get enough of this woman.

  A sobering thought.

  “Tanner,” she cried, battering back against him, meeting him thrust for thrust. He pumped harder, his hands wrapping around her hips, giving him leverage to ram into her body. She tossed her head back, spread her legs, taking it all. If the noises she made were any indication, she was enjoying it as much as he.

  “Say, ‘Fuck me, Tanner’,” he urged, watching his cock slide in and out of her body. The erotic picture it made was nearly his undoing and he closed his eyes, clenched his jaw. Damn it, he did not want to come yet.

  He wasn’t sure there was any choice.

  “Fuck me, Tanner,” she whispered. “Please.”

  Her words did it. And the fact that she came the second she said them, her body wracked with tremors, a gush of wetness coating his dick. He rammed deep inside her, his hot come gushing within her clenching walls, filling her. Her name fell from his lips as he slumped against her, arms wrapped tight around her middle, cradling her to him as they collapsed on top of the bed.

  His emotions, the intense need he felt for Maddie, all of it scared the shit out of him.

  Chapter Seven

  “So is it true?”

  Maddie’s gaze slid towards Lauren, but the expression on her face was the epitome of innocence. She turned to face Brittney who looked ready to bounce out of her chair.

  “Is what true?”

  Brittney did bounce in her chair and now appeared ready to pop out of her skin. She’d just come back from a two week Hawaiian honeymoon with Charlie and her golden skin glowed. Her eyes sparkled with what could only be excitement.

  “I come back from my honeymoon feeling like I’m hot shit with all the good gossip, and then I found out you had sex with Tanner Robinson? Is it true?”

  Maddie glared at Lauren, who held her hands up in defense. “Don’t blame me. She’d already heard the rumor from someone else.”

  Maddie sighed. She’d tried to keep her interlude with Tanner quiet, she really had. It didn’t help that he’d sent her a giant bouquet of flowers two days after she left his hotel room a ragged, blissed-out mess. The entire office had been atwitter and before she could stash the card that had come with the arrangement in her purse the receptionist had snatched it out of her hands.

  And the receptionist had nearly fainted from disbelief when she read the card signed with his name. She had proceeded to tell everyone at work who cared enough to listen, including Maddie’s mother.

  That had certainly been a shit hitting the fan moment if she’d ever experienced one.

  Maddie hadn’t heard from Tanner since. Two long weeks after having the best, most exciting sex of her life—and she had nothing but a dried out bouquet of flowers and naughty memories to show for it.

  “Shit, Maddie don’t keep me in suspense! I want all of the dirty details.” Brittney grinned, then sipped the drink the waiter just set in front of her.

  They’d met for dinner to get the scoop on Brittney’s honeymoon. How this had turned into the Maddie and Tanner show she had no idea.

  “Yeah, I want some details too. You haven’t told me squat except that you two did it,” Lauren added.

  Brittney sighed, her expression dreamy. “If I wasn’t a newlywed, I’d be incredibly jealous. Tanner Robinson is so sexy and that voice. My God, I can’t imagine him whispering sweet nothings in my ear, I’d faint. So tell us, Mads, how was he in bed?”

  Maddie blushed, busied herself with her drink. She didn’t want to share with her best friends how good Tanner had been. It seemed too private, too personal for her to talk about so casually in the middle of a busy restaurant.

  These were her best friends though. If she couldn’t tell them, then who could she share it with?

  “He was sweet. He was—good,” Maddie said carefully. That earned her a solid punch in the arm from Brittney.

  “Good is not good enough, honey. Tell us, does he have a big you know what?” Brittney batted her eyelashes at her.

  Maddie giggled, shook her head. “I can’t tell you that.”

  “He’s huge,” Lauren said, a shrewd expression on her face. “If he had a tiny dick, was shitty in bed, she would’ve been screaming it from the rooftops. He must’ve been amazing.”

  “Wow. Of course I’m not surprised but still, it’s thrilling when your best friend has sex with freaking Tanner Robinson.” Brittney sighed. “Did you guys talk? Or was it just an all night sex fest? Have you seen him since? Has he called you?”

  “We talked a little bit, it was a well into the morning sex fest and no I haven’t seen him or talked to him since.” She tried to shake off the disappointment that wanted to set in.

  “He sent her flowers,” Lauren piped in.

  “And that was it.” Maddie pressed her lips together, feeling foolish. Sure she was good enough for a one night screw, but she couldn’t even hold his attention long enough to garner a phone call.

  He must’ve thought she was terrible. He did shuffle her out of the hotel suite pretty fast after they’d finished that last, outrageous, completely mind-blowing bout of sex. She’d been glad to get out of there, uncomfortable with what they’d shared, the outrageous things they’d done, the even more outrageous things she’d said…

  It didn’t really matter how uncomfortable it had made her though. She wanted to do it all again, but only with Tanner. A man she couldn’t have.

  “Oh, honey, that’s the way he operates. Don’t you read Us? People? He’s a total player.”

  “I know.” She did know. She’d read everything she could get her hands on about him in the last two weeks until he
r eyes crossed.

  “So tell us—did he do anything kinky or was it straight sex? Tie you up, spank you, what? For some reason I have this image of him very enthusiastic when it comes to oral sex too. He looks like a man who knows how to use his tongue.” Brittney grinned, her expression devilish.

  Maddie’s cheeks heated even more. Leave it to Brittney to figure out he spanked her, that he’d licked her to oblivion more times than she could count. She’d been so startled when he smacked her ass the first time she hadn’t known how to react. When he kept doing it though, it aroused her. In a crazy, ooh-this-is-wrong kind of way.

  “He’s a kinky bastard.” Lauren was on fire tonight. “Look at her face, it says it all.”

  “He didn’t tie me up,” Maddie said quietly, sipping from her drink.

  Brittney burst out laughing. “He spanked you? Our mild-mannered Maddie? What did you do, freak out?”

  Maddie shrugged. “I didn’t do anything, it’s not like he flogged me or anything.”

  “And what about the oral sex thing? Am I right? There was something about that man’s lips.” Brittney tapped her chin with her index finger as if analyzing them in her head.

  “God, you guys want all of the details don’t you? Okay, yes, he was perfect. He had a big you know what and knew exactly how to use it and yes he was rather enthusiastic when it came to the oral sex thing.” She was beyond mortified at sharing everything, but it was also a little fun to talk about too. Made it seem more real, like it had actually happened versus a fantasy that ran in a constant loop in her brain.

  “He sounds amazing,” Lauren said with awe. “You should call him, Maddie. Try and hook up with him again.”

  “I don’t have his phone number.”

  “What? You’ve got to be kidding me.” Brittney shook her head. “You have no way to contact him?”

  “No.” It was best. Really it was. He would probably just brush her off, make her feel stupid and she didn’t need that. No, she would rather relive her memories with her trusty vibrator than have her spirit crushed by his ultimate rejection.

  God she was pitiful.

  “Maddie, you blew it! Don’t you want to see him again?”
