Chapter 13
After midnight, Rip piloted the boat back to the dock. Lela leaned against him with her arms around his waist. She felt damn good by his side.
The hours of lovemaking had touched Rip deeply. He wanted to take care of Lela, to be there for her. But was he the right man for her? That thought nagged at him, but he didn’t have the answer.
When the boat stopped, Lela stirred then took his hand. “Come to bed with me.”
That was what Rip planned on. The night wasn’t over, and the prospect of holding her was alluring. He could easily get used to having her close.
In the cabin, Rip slid into bed beside Lela and pulled the covers over them. She nestled against him with her head on his shoulder, then fell asleep. It was a while before Rip dozed.
He tossed and turned, unable to get his mind off the future. Lela was safe, so far. But evil lurked, ready to strike at the first opportunity. That was what he had to prevent, but there was no easy solution.
When the sun shone through the cabin window, Rip sat up and stuffed the pillow behind his back. He was happy to see that Lela was sleeping soundly. He’d probably worn her out—in a good way, he hoped.
Lela had stolen his heart. If he could commit to a woman, she would be the one. But he’d been ruined, destroyed by his own act of negligence.
Until Lela was safe and her former life restored, there was no sense in trying to resolve his issues. That was something he’d have to deal with later. The evening had been special, and he took satisfaction in pleasing her. It was good enough to hold her and show her that he cared.
The truth was that Rip did care, but it didn’t mean that everything had changed.
Lela opened her eyes and touched his arm. “You’re awake.” She moved higher on the pillow, and a satisfied smile crossed her lips. “You were wonderful last night…this morning…all of it.”
“That was you.” Rip put two fingers on her jaw and traced his thumb over her lips. Lela had made love with the same passion she had for life. She was an exciting woman.
Scooting higher, Lela kissed him. Her lips grazed his cheek then found his mouth. Her sweet kiss sent electricity through his body. Rip put his hand on the back of her neck and pressed her close to deepen the kiss.
Rip eased back a little. “You better be careful, darling,” he said with his lips close to hers. “You might get me started again.”
“I hope so.” Lela pulled the sheet off, exposing Rip’s nakedness. She gazed at his hardness, arousing him more. Then she raked her palm up his thigh slowly, sending sparks of desire through him.
Lela reached between his legs and cupped his balls, holding their weight in her hand. Then she gently squeezed, and Rip emitted a soft growl from deep in his throat.
While massaging his balls in an apparent effort to drive him crazy with lust, Lela fingered the thick patch of dark hair at the base of his cock, teasing and tantalizing.
Rip reached down and touched her cheek. Lela wrapped her hand around his heated erection, then slid it up. She raked her thumb over the plum-shaped head, smearing the pre-cum that dripped from the top.
Lela sensually stroked, palming the head of his cock to moisten her hand, then moving back down to the base. She gradually increased the pressure, unhinging him more with each stroke.
“Jesus…” Rip groaned, and his head rolled to the side.
Lela got on her knees, and while continuing to stroke, she kissed his bare skin. She worked her way over his belly and across his chest, lingering to bite his nipples.
She moved between his knees to get a better angle. Then she massaged his tight balls while running her palm over and around the head of his cock. With Rip on the verge of exploding, she licked around his purple knob, dragging her tongue ever so slowly.
Then she touched the tender spot under the rim of his knob, and Rip’s muscles molded into steel. She feathered her fingertips along the side of his shaft several times, taunting but making him wait.
Lela pressed her lips to his hard shaft, and her warmth made his blood simmer. Then she put her mouth over him and sucked, bringing him to the verge of climax. She licked down his cock, then back up to suck his knob.
Rip panted in attempt to delay gratification. It felt so good and he wanted it to last.
But Lela was in control. She used both hands, so one gripped the base of his cock and the other moved up and over the swollen head. When she increased the pressure and the tempo, Rip lost it.
He arched his back and pressed his head against the headboard. Sensation consumed him, concentrated where Lela’s hands stroked him. He moaned loudly, in the grip of a powerful orgasm. Then his cum shot out onto his belly and up to his chest.
When Rip was able to move again, he pulled Lela into his arms for a passionate kiss. Sensing her arousal, he kissed harder, delving his tongue into her hot mouth. She pressed against him, and he breathed her in.
Taking her hands, Rip flipped her onto her back and held her to the bed. He kissed her jaw and collarbone, then suckled at her breasts. She was so sweet, her skin so soft. He bit at her nipples and she whimpered.
