“But not now?”
“Geez woman, you’re pushy.”
“Suppose I want all that and sex too?”
“Then I would have to say be patient.”
“Lucian, you are not making me wait. It’s been months.”
“Sweetheart, it’s been much longer for me. I want you in the worst way, but we need to be in sync.”
“Lucian,” she stresses again, “I want you to make love to me. It’s all I’ve thought about for weeks.”
This is news to me because Olivia was distant during October.
“Then why were you so distant?” I broach. “I thought you didn’t want me.”
“I was afraid we would make the same mistake as last time. I wanted to ease into it too, but I was worried you would back away once we did. I desired you all the time and convinced myself that I needed to stay away from you. It’s why I stopped sleeping in your bed. You don’t know how many nights I wanted to come to you. I would lay awake in my bed, thinking about it.”
“God, Olivia, I wish you had come to me. You should have told me this in the first place.”
“I know it was stupid of me. I told you that I make bad calls when it comes to relationships. You’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me. I almost made a huge mistake with Joshua. If I married him…”
“But you didn’t. You saw what he was, and you got away from him.”
“Thanks to you. I couldn’t have done it without you.”
“It wasn’t just me. Everyone helped.”
“But you cared for me after my surgery. You gave me a place in your home. The things you did for me tell me how much you love me. I can never repay you, Lucian, ever.”
“Have I ever wanted repayment? I only want your love.”
“You have it. I love you. I can’t say it enough.”
“And I love you, but you’ll still have to sleep on the couch.”
She gives me a hard look, and even though I bite my tongue, I can’t hold in my laugh.
“You’re impossible!”
Gently, I press my lips against hers, and her tongue immediately meets mine. I suck at it, relishing her taste. Her hands weave through my hair and tug at the curls at the nape of my neck. In seconds, my cock is as hard as a stone. I want to tear her clothes off and throw her on the bed. As if she knows what I’m thinking, she strokes me through my jeans, which only causes my desire to reach new heights. I know I said I’d go slowly, but right now, I need her.
Olivia moans as I suck on her bottom lip. God, she tastes so good. I need to calm myself if I want to get to the act. She begins to deftly work the buttons on my shirt, not taking her lips from mine. Reacting, I cup her breasts, using my palms to stimulate her nipples, which bead up against the silk of her blouse.
I break the kiss to feast on the ivory flesh of her throat, sucking, marking her as I move along. Her hands tangle deeper in my hair, and her hips mold against mine. I hoist her leg up, and she curls it around my back. My hand skims over the heat between her thighs.
“We have to get naked,” I whisper.
My shirt is open, and her fingers run over my abs, but it’s a tentative motion as if she’s not sure.
“Olivia, what’s wrong?”
“I can’t believe I almost broke us.”
“We’re not broken. We’re fixed. We’re together.” I place my hands over hers and press them against my torso. “Touch me.”
I feel pressure as her palms run over the surface of my skin. She trails upwards and flicks my nipples, which sends a ripple of pleasure down to my dick.
