His hand runs down my arm. His calluses scrape against my skin, leaving a reverberation running through my body. I shiver.
James mistakes it for a chill and moves the blanket out from under me. He lifts it over me and reaches under to run a hand over my arm again. My eyes close as sparks follow in the wake of his fingers, my hand comes up to rest against his chest. His hand moves from my shoulder down my side to my waist.
His fingers barely tighten, but I feel it. Flickers of flame travel from his hand, through my stomach and lower. My hips shift on their own, rubbing against his groin.
He’s hard. Very hard. My eyes fly open to search his face. But he's in the shadow, and I can’t read his emotions or his intent.
“Lorelai...” He grinds out my name.
He’s refused me twice now, but my body is burning. It’s been a long time since someone touched me in any unselfish way, and I don’t remember ever feeling this kind of heat. A desperate need rips through me.
When my hips move this time, it’s with purpose. I move my hand under his shirt. His skin is hot. I trace his abs with my fingers and his hand squeezes my waist. His pull is tentative, but it’s there. My lips fall open, and an audible breath is dragged out.
His fingers open and smooth their way to the curve of my lower back. A rush of liquid pools between my thighs.
“Lorelai.” He grits out again. “I’m grateful you woke me, but you have about 10 seconds to go back to the couch.”
His arm pulls back. I know he wants me, but he’s fighting it, giving me room to leave, to choose. Somehow that is hotter than any of the pushing, squeezing fumbles I’ve experienced.
My hand under his t-shirt moves up over his pecs and brushes across his nipple. He groans, but this time it’s a sound of pleasure.
“No,” I hear myself whisper. “Touch me. Please?”
“Fuck,” he growls. But his hand is back on my waist, smoothing over my hip, cupping my ass, pulling me against him. He lifts onto his elbow and his mouth is on mine. His tongue parts my lips and delves inside.
My tongue dances with his. The friction sends tight curls of smoke spiraling through me. My hand reaches up to his jaw, around his neck, pulling him closer, deeper into my mouth.
His hand pulls my leg over his hip, and my sex is settled against his hardness. I grind against him, needing to feel more, harder. The room falls away and the places we’re connected is all there is in the world.
Then he’s pushing me away. Cool air rushes in, and I feel more than hear my whimper.
But he’s shifting me until my back is pressed to the mattress, and his hand is shoving inside my panties. One strong finger presses into me, thick calluses rasping against smoothness, sliding through the stream of my desire. My back arches off the sheet and my eyes roll back in my head.
He pulls completely out leaving my whole being empty and I stare up at him. “More,” I beg. “Please more.”
His other hand smooths my shirt up to my neck. I can see his face now that his back isn’t to the fireplace. His eyes are pools of darkness, stripping me raw. His mouth is partially open, and his tongue licks out to touch his lower lip. Then his mouth is on my breast, drawing my nipple into hot wetness. His tongue flicks and teases, drawing circles and then sucking again.
My hips lift, searching. I hear my ragged breathing. “Fuck.” The curse sounds angry, demanding.
He slides his finger back inside me, pumps a few times, then pulls back. He adds a second digit, pressing in hard and reaching so, so far. I make some hungry sound, and I feel him curse against my nipple. My channel clenches around him, and I shatter into a thousand pieces, my head spinning, flames devouring me.
My whole body is shaking, but he isn’t stopping. His fingers move in and back, his mouth travels up my neck, his teeth scrape my skin, then his tongue is on mine again. His fingers thrust inside me, circling, searching— Oh, fuck. My hips move to his rhythm, riding his fingers. His mouth leaves mine. “Come for me again,” he demands. “Now.”
I convulse around his fingers with zero control over my own body. “Harder.” He grounds out against my mouth, curling his fingers up, sending circles of flame in a tornado spin rippling through me. Waves of fire crash over me. Stronger. Over and over. I forget my ugly past. I forget my name. I forget how to breathe. Tears escape and run down to my temples.
There is only James, slowing his hand as my trembling subsides. He’s watching my face now. He sucks my juices from his fingers, then one comes up to trace the trail of tears. Then he leans down, following his finger with his tongue. When his mouth covers mine again, I taste the salt on his tongue, and I shiver.
My skin cools, and the waves of orgasm settle into a smooth pool. My hands release their grip on the sheets, and I flex my fingers to relieve the ache. I reach up to grip his waist, but he’s moving away again. I try to hold him against me, and I must’ve made a sound. “Shhh. I’ll be right back,” he whispers.
I close my eyes. I’ve never felt this... This warm thread winding around me, connecting me with living, pulsing need to another person. I don’t know how I’ll ever be able to allow anything... Less. If I can’t have this, I want nothing.
I feel emptiness sinking its way back into my soul as he edges off the bed.
Then his hands are back, pushing my shirt over my head, leaving it tangled around my forearms. He pulls my thong down, down, around my ankles, then my legs are free to wrap around him as he kneels between them. But he’s still pushing me away when I need to be closer.
Then he's shoving my thighs apart, his mouth pressing a hot kiss against my clit. His tongue laves between my lower lips, leaving heated flickers in its wake. He sips at the juices collected there, then pushes his tongue inside me. A moan rips out of me.
His tongue does a dance around my clit, then his whole mouth presses down onto me, into me. He’s devouring me. My body, my soul. Everything I once thought about intimacy is replaced with his mouth, his tongue, his hands. Just when I feel my inner thighs tingle and start to tremble, he moves back.
