Corbin’s arm locked around my waist as he pulled me closer. Then he punctuated our words with a kiss that felt different from all the others we’d shared. More meaningful now that we’d given voice to our feelings.

And my awful day turned into one of the best ever.

CIPHER

Itook her lips again, harder this time because hearing her confess her love had stripped away the last restraint inside me. Then I caught both hands beneath her ass, hoisted her against my chest, and swallowed her startled laugh as her legs locked around my waist and her arms circled my neck.

She fit there so fucking well, the soft heat between her thighs pressing against the erection trapped behind my jeans while I carried her out of the kitchen. When she rolled against me and moaned into my mouth, the thick ridge of my cock dragged over the seam of her shorts, and whatever plan I’d had about reaching the bedroom died halfway down the hall.

I turned and pinned her against the wall, taking the impact through my forearms while my mouth remained fused to hers. Bex arched into me, her fingers sliding into my hair and tugging the longer strands away from my forehead as I ground my hips against her again. The friction tore a growl from my chest, and the smile I felt against my lips told me she knew exactly how thoroughly she had broken my control.

“You tell me you love me while wearing my shirt and looking like that, then expect me to carry you gently to bed?” I caught her lower lip between my teeth before soothing the sting with my tongue. “Not happening, baby.”

“I wasn’t expecting gentle.” Her answer came out breathless, but the impish light in her hazel-green eyes remained.

“Smart mouth.” I tightened my grip beneath her ass and pressed her more firmly against the wall. “Think I’ll find something better for it to do.”

Her cheeks turned pink, but her thighs squeezed around my hips while her gaze dropped to my mouth. “That sounded like a promise.”

“It was.”

I shoved the shirt up her body until her bare tits filled my hands, and the sight made my cock pulse so hard the pressure behind my zipper was painful. Her nipples were already tight, rosy points against pale skin still carrying faint marks from the last time I’d taken my mouth to her. I rolled both peaks beneath my thumbs while watching desire wash every trace of teasing from her face, then bent and closed my lips around one.

Bex cried out and tipped her head back against the wall, exposing the elegant line of her throat while her fingers tightened painfully in my hair. I sucked until the nipple drew deeper into my mouth, circling the rigid tip with my tongue before scraping my teeth lightly across it. Her hips bucked against my cock, and the helpless friction made my balls tighten while another rough sound vibrated through my chest.

“Look at these perfect fucking tits.” I released the wet nipple and moved to the other, catching it between my teeth while my hand kneaded the soft weight I had abandoned. “Love seeing them in my hands. Gonna love watching them get heavier when you’re carrying my baby.”

Her breath broke, and her thighs clamped tighter around my waist. “Corbin.”

“Yeah, baby?” I sucked the nipple hard enough to make her gasp, then dragged my mouth across the full upper curve of her breast. “You like hearing what I’m going to do to you?”

She swallowed, the flush spreading down her throat and across her chest while her eyes stayed locked on mine. “You already know I do.”

“I want to hear you say it anyway.” I shifted one arm beneath her ass to hold her securely and slid my free hand between our bodies. “Tell me how it makes you feel when I talk about putting my baby inside you.”

Her lips parted as my fingers slipped beneath the waistband of her shorts and panties. I found her hot and slick, the swollen folds coating my fingertips before I had done more than touch her. My thumb brushed her clit once, and the answer left her on a cry while her body jolted between mine and the wall.

“I want it,” she admitted, her voice shaking as I circled the sensitive bud slowly.

“Good.” I sank one finger into her gripping heat, watching pleasure soften her expression as her pussy closed tightly around me. “Cause I’m gonna knock you the fuck up so every man who sees you knows I’m the bastard who put that baby in you.”

Bex moaned my name as I added a second finger and stretched her around them. The wet heat clung to every stroke while I curled my fingers and searched for the place that made her thighs begin trembling around my hips. Her hands left my hair and caught my face, pulling my mouth back to hers as she rolled desperately over the palm pressed against her clit.

“I love you,” she breathed into the kiss.

“Love isn’t a strong enough word for what I feel for you, Bex.” I drove my fingers deeper and rubbed my thumb in tight circles over the swollen little bud. “I’m fucking obsessed with you, baby. Your voice, your smile, the way you turn every room into yours without trying, and this greedy pussy that squeezes me like it never wants to let go.”

Her walls clenched hard around my fingers, dragging a darker note into my voice. I kissed down her throat and closed my mouth over one breast again, sucking the nipple while my hand worked between her thighs. Every thrust produced an obscene sound that filled the hallway beneath her increasingly broken cries.

“That’s right,” I growled against her skin. “Let me hear those sexy sounds. So damn hot.”

“Corbin, please.”

“Please what?”

“Make me come.”
