Em definitely deserved better. I didn’t care.
My mouth covered hers, my hands reaching down to grab her ass, hoisting her legs up and around my waist. Her hands dug into my hair and I felt her boobs against my chest and I shit you not—I nearly came. What the hell was it about this chick? Fuck, from the moment I’d first seen her last winter, I’d been obsessed. Talking to her on the phone was just the nail in the coffin, because the worst of it was I actually liked her. Burke would laugh his ass off if he could see me now—the coldest bastard in the club was officially pu**y whipped.
At least for the moment.
I should’ve dropped her and taken off running while I still could. Instead I slammed her against the door, thrusting my c**k up at her as if I could penetrate her through our clothing if I just tried hard enough. She tugged up my shirt. Then her fingers dug into the muscles of my back, nails scratching me as she dragged them downward.
Lines of sharp pain followed.
Impossibly, my dick got harder. Em looked hot as hell in those tight jeans of hers, but she needed to get them the f**k off before I stroked out. I’d do her hard and fast this first time—no way I could hold out. Fortunately, she was just as worked up as me, so odds were good she’d go off like a firecracker. Then I had every intention of dragging her back to the hotel and showing her just how many different ways I could make her come.
First I needed to free up some of that blood pooled in my lower body for my brain, though. Right now I couldn’t even remember how to breathe. I carried her over to the couch, dropping her down, and then covered her, our hips rubbing together in the hottest dry hump in history.
Jesus.
I really was gonna come in my pants.
I kissed her one last time, tasting how hot and sweet her mouth was, then forced myself to pull away.
“Never wanted to be inside anyone half as much as you, Em,” I told her, the words rough. Her blue eyes opened wide and her breath caught. Her cheeks flushed a delicate pink and I wanted to wrap her up and carry her off like a caveman or something. I rolled to the side, digging in my pocket for a condom.
“Jeans off, baby,” I added. “I can’t wait any longer.”
“I have to tell you something.”
I found the condom and reached for my fly, only half following her words. Goddamn she was hot . . . Boobs popped out, ni**les flushed, eyes bright with excitement.
“No,” she said. “Seriously, I need to tell you something.”
“What?” I asked, wondering what the hell could be higher priority than getting naked. Then it hit me—she was a girl, she needed reassurance. Damned if I knew why, but they all did. “Hey, I didn’t just bring you here to screw you, babe. You mean something to me, I swear. But I can’t think right now. Can we talk later?”
She looked away and I started to get a sinking feeling. Shit. Something was really wrong. I don’t know what bothered me more, the idea of blowing my mission or not blowing my wad.
No contest—to hell with the mission. This was about her cunt squeezing my cock.
“I haven’t done this before,” she said without meeting my eye.
“Fucked on the first date?” I asked her. “This isn’t like that, babe. I don’t know what you’re thinking, but I’m not—”
“Jesus, will you just shut up and listen to me?” she snapped, sitting up and swinging her legs off the couch. “Why does everyone in my life need to be so damn bossy?”
I stared at her, dick throbbing, confused as hell.
“I haven’t had sex before,” she said abruptly. “And I really like you and I totally want to do this, but I don’t want to do it on a dirty couch in a bar. Can you understand that?”
Now that caught my attention.
“The f**k? What do you mean, you haven’t had sex?”
“I mean I’ve Never. Had. Sex,” she told me, spacing out her words carefully. “True story. You got a problem with that? Because you’re looking at me like I’ve got herpes and that’s not working for me.”
I stilled, trying to wrap my brain around what she’d said. It was hard, given the lack of circulation. Then it sank in.
Shit. Em was mine. All mine. No other ass**le had been inside that pretty little cunt—this was f**kin’ beautiful. I smiled slowly, running a hand through my hair.
“That kicks ass, babe,” I said, sinking down to sit next to her.
“It does?” she asked, her voice small. I pulled her over and onto my lap, running my hands up and down her body. God, she was just tiny. A perfect little package I wanted to lick all over and then take home and hide away from the world.
“Yeah,” I said, feeling something like triumph start to build inside me. I wasn’t going to share her—not now, not ever. This body was mine. All mine. Best present ever. Fuck if I knew what I’d done to deserve it, but not a chance in hell I’d let her get away.
“I am gonna have so much fun teaching you everything I know,” I said, kissing the side of her neck. Shit, she smelled good. My c**k wanted inside her now, but somehow my brain had reengaged, and I was not going to f**k this up. If I played things right, she’d fall for me so hard she’d never know what hit her. And I wanted that. I wanted it a lot. Win for me, win for the Jacks, too. Perfect.
Em gave a little laugh.
“You kind of scared me there,” she whispered, and damned if she didn’t blush a little. So cute. “I mean, it’s silly, but things were just moving so fast. It’s never been like this for me before.”
