“It’s about fucking time,” he growls, deepening our starved kiss.
I jump at the exact moment he bends, grabbing the backs of my knees to pick me up, and wrapping my legs around his waist. Impatient hands dig into my skin, with a sure grip, and still devouring my mouth, he blindly walks us to the couch. Seating us, and yanking my legs to either side of his hips, he uses his hold to urge me down as he rocks up… the delicious friction shredding any last, lingering ounce of willpower. My hands, just as impatient but not nearly as nimble, fumble with his belt, then button and zipper, as his sneak under my skirt, ripping my panties off with one rough tug.
“Knox,” I beg.
“Almost, baby, I got you,” he promises, then delivers, in one savage thrust.
I cry out, pleasure and pain blending together in a riot of sensation.
After all this time, it only takes a second for my body to adjust, remember, and relax around him.
“Please, please don’t break my heart again, Knox.” I cringe before it’s fully pleaded, a spontaneous, humiliating utterance.
“Ditto,” he grunts swatting my ass. “I’ve been trying for years to get you back. Now I have. You’re mine again, baby. For good.” He thrusts deep. “Forever.” Deeper. “No more bullshit. I mean it.”
I lift my hips, swirl them in a slow circle, then drop down fast. “Then no more of the I’m not good enough for you bullshit. I mean it.”
“What? That’s what you thought? Are you fucking kidding me?” He roars… and actually pulls me off, to toss me on the cushion beside him. “Jesus, really?” He snaps his head to me, testing if looks can kill. “You, Linden, are the onlyone who ever had that asinine thought. Never did I think I was better than you. Not. Once.”
“Please.” I roll my eyes and move to stand… the mood obliterated. “Are you going to try and tell me, with a straight face, that your mother wasn’t in your ear, pointing out each and every way I was… beneath you?”
He has me pinned, flat on my back so fast I squeal in shock. “This is beneath me, Linden. And this is the only kind of beneath me you’ve ever been. For whatever reason, you got it in your head that people were always looking down on you. I wanted to marry you when I was ten. Thought about asking you at fifteen. Bought a goddamn ring at eighteen. But you kept on and on with that shit. It’s all you ever talked about, all you focused on. So-”
“So it’s my fault? Is that what you’re saying?”
“No, it’s not. I’m…”
“Can you get off me? If we’re going to hash this out, I’d prefer… Oh, God…” a delirious wail sounds itself, my whole-body arching off the couch as he drives back inside me. “Knox, oh, what…”
“Only time you shut up and listen.” His grunt hits my neck, warming the wet path left by his tongue. “I was young. You were young. Figured, incorrectly, that we’d talk about it, sort things out, and get on with our damn lives when I got home from school.”
I lift my head to glare at him. “And screwing half your campus? How’d you think that would help?”
This pisses him off, and confirms every tale ever told: angry sex is, by far, the very best kind of sex to be had.
He hitches my leg up, close to my ear, and pistons his hips fast, brutal, and divinely.
“I didn’t touch another fucking girl until you started your online parade about your new,perfect boyfriend! You broke my fucking heart, Linden!” Deeper, faster… his pace impossible, depth matching his tone… while I cling to my orgasm. “I was waiting, hoping, thatwith a little time apart, you’d realize how great we were together. Instead, you forgot about me, or pretended to, rebelled, aimed to wound, and hit your fucking target! So I returned the goddamn favor.”
“He was years after you left. You expect me…” my words fade into a long, low moan. I squeeze around him, grinning when he too groans, needing him to catch up as I’m about to explode, “to believe you didn’t sleep with anyone,that whole time? I know you better than that, Knox Morgan.”
“Apparently not! Fuck, Lin I feel you. You’re close. Do that again, baby, so good.”
“No,” like a stubborn fool, I moan my refusal… and unravel. Dammit!
“No, huh?” He half-laughs; no, less than half, because more-than-half is growled. “Missed you, baby. Love you. So goddamn much.”
Crazed, he drops his weight onto me, sucking at my neck while slamming inside. “Couldn’t look at another woman and not see you, Linny. Still can’t. Never will. You moved on. I didn’t.”
“Knox,” I mewl, holding on for dear, blessed, euphoric life — his pace quickening, force brutal — as another orgasm builds.
“Tell me, Lin.” He lifts his head. “Look at me, and tell me.”
God, he’s magnificent. Dark hair a beautiful mess, eyes alive with raw, untamed passion and virility radiating off him. I know what he wants to hear, and it’d be my long-held, long-denied truth, but I… I can’t. So, I shake my head and divert my eyes from his.
“Goddammit, Linden!” My legs are untwined for me, now pushed up and out, spread open for his absolute owning. “Tell me.”
I purr, whimper, moan… but I don’t tell him… no matter how hard, how deep, he goes.
