“You say that like she doesn’t keep me running now.” He rubbed his nose along mine. “Thank you for opening your world to me.”
I looped my arms around his neck. “I like having you here. Especially this part—in my bed, leaving your scent on my pillows.”
He peered down at me. “You like smelling me after I’m gone?”
“Why wouldn’t I? You smell delicious.”
Head cocking, he smirked. “Then why am I the one always tempted to eat you alive?”
My thighs tried to clamp together, but with him wedged between them, I only succeeded in drawing him closer. His cock brushed my clit, making me arch toward him.
“Jake, I want you inside me.”
“That’s gonna happen.” He rubbed his length back and forth over my clit, getting so close to where I needed him. “Let me grab a condom.”
He made quick work of it, expertly rolling the latex over his erection. I liked watching him handle himself, rough and efficient. Then his hands were on me again, and there was nothing efficient about it. He took his time running his palms down the length of my thighs before slipping them under my ass and yanking me into him.
“Come here, sweetness,” he rumbled, lining up his cock with my entrance.
The first stretch of being breached never failed to take my breath away. He slid into me slowly, pushing past my flexing walls until he found home and stilled, as deep as he could get. We sighed together.
“Christ, do you feel good.” This guttural utterance spilled from his mouth like he couldn’t hold it back. He moved slowly, barely pulling out before he shoved back in.
“It feels incredible to me too.” I trailed my fingers along his biceps to clutch his shoulders and raised my head to kiss his chin. “Maybe we can ditch the condoms once you get tested. I would love to have you raw inside me.”
His head dropped, and his exhale was shaky as he rolled his forehead along mine. “Clara…it’s not about that.”
“Okay.” He was stopping, and I didn’t want him to. We’d talk about this later. “That’s okay. I don’t care. Just fuck me, Jake.”
He hesitated briefly before he groaned and started moving. Kissing me. Fucking me until neither of us could breathe. He let me draw in some air, then went after me again, his tongue deep in my mouth, cock even deeper in my pussy.
We clung and clawed at one another, rolling around the bed like we were fighting. He gave me the top, then took it back, driving my body into the mattress. Like he was trying to reach a point I wasn’t even aware existed but he was determined to find. I held on and gave back, our skin slapping and sliding.
He wrung me out—out of orgasms and energy. I almost lost my voice from crying out his name and pleading with him for more, less—everything. Finally, he collapsed beside me. Once he got rid of the condom, I curled into him in a space between bliss and sleep.
Then he spoke softly. “I always wear a condom, Clara. After one accidental pregnancy, I don’t want to risk another.”
I lifted my head from the crook of his shoulder so I could look at him as we spoke. “That makes sense. I have an IUD, though. The chances of a pregnancy are really slim. Less than one percent. But I understand if you’re not comfortable.”
His brow furrowed. “You think I want anything between us?”
“I don’t know.” I rubbed the center of his sweaty chest. “But, so you know, I was tested after I had Nellie, and I haven’t been with anyone since. If you think you might want to forego a condom, get tested, and we—”
“Got a clean bill of health at my physical last year. A month or two after we met the first time.” He tugged on the end of my hair. “You really want to go bare with me?”
“God yes.” I kissed his pec. “If you want it, too, get a recent test and we can talk about it more—or skip the talking and go straight to the fucking.”
His grin was halfhearted, and his brow was still furrowed. “Told you I’m in the clear.”
“Well…yeah, last year you were. Since then…” I trailed off, having no desire to say he’d obviously been with other women and we couldn’t be too careful.
“Since then…what?” He sat up and tugged me with him, situating me on his lap so we were face to face. “Clara, you're the only woman I’ve been with for over a year.”
“What?” I breathed. “How?”
“You were there that first night. You felt it too, didn’t you?”
I knew what he meant. I wasn’t experienced outside of my ex-husband, but what happened between us was nothing short of electric. It was why I returned to The Tavern again and again. Two strangers shouldn’t have lit the bed on fire the way we had. To me, my hours with Jake in that hotel room had been something special. The universe’s reward for going through hell and surviving it. I hadn’t realized he’d felt even close to the same way.
