An idea occurred to him about how he could ease her anxiety. He reached out slowly to tug her thumb out of her mouth. Then he ran his fingers over her lips.
His nose felt stuffed and he couldn’t breathe through it. So, a long sigh left his mouth as she took two of his fingers into her mouth and suckled.
“That’s a good girl. Take what you need from me.”
To his relief, she moved a bit closer. Then she chewed lightly on his fingers. His dick hardened and he closed his eyes.
Think unsexy thoughts. Think unsexy thoughts.
They lay there for long moments until he felt the tension ease from her body. Thank fuck.
“Ready to come out from under the bed?” he asked quietly.
She jolted then shook her head, nearly losing his fingers. She let out a whimper and he made soothing noises, pressing his fingers into her mouth again.
“It’s all right. You’re all right. I’m here. I’m not going anywhere.”
Eventually, she was the one that moved. He lay there, motionless, waiting on her, like she was an injured animal he was going to coax closer. Then she pressed herself against him.
Please don’t feel the hard-on I’m sporting.
Letting his fingers slide free of her mouth, she buried her face into his neck and breathed him in.
That’s it. Take what you need.
Slowly, so he didn’t scare her, he put his arm around her. Putting his hand on the back of her neck, he held her against him.
“I’m so sorry,” she whispered.
“What for?” he asked.
“Making you bleed. I hurt you.” She had her hand wrapped in his shirt and he felt like a fucking King. He knew that was insane. Here she was, scared because she’d hurt him, and he felt this surge of arrogant satisfaction because she was curled up around him, clinging to him like a life preserver.
“Did you do it on purpose?”
“No,” she gasped. “Of course not.”
“Then why do you feel so guilty? It was an accident.”
“I hurt you.”
“And you apologized. That was all that was needed. So why did you hide?”
“I . . . I . . . felt so stupid. Can’t do anything right. Couldn’t even kiss you without hitting you. Idiot.”
A growl rumbled out of him. Jesus. What was that? He sounded like a fucking animal. He half-expected her to crawl away from him in fear, but she was still clinging tightly to him.
“You’re in trouble now, baby girl.”
Okay, that time, she did stiffen up.
“But not for making me bleed or hurting me,” he added hastily. “It was an accident. You hurt me. You apologized. It’s forgotten.”
“Really?”
“Really,” he said firmly. “You know what’s not easily forgiven?”
“What?”
