“Will you do me a favor?” he asked, kissing his way down her throat.

“What’s that?” she asked hesitantly, tilting her head to the side.

“Will you let me hear everything?  Every reaction?  Every sigh and moan and…whatever you feel?”

She shivered, closing her eyes as he kissed, nibbled, and licked her neck, soothing the spots he’d teased.

“What do you mean?”

He moved his mouth lower, staying near her neck.  “You are trying to hide your reactions to me, Sage.  It turns me on to hear you. Please, let me hear you.”  He kissed her, tenderly at first, but with growing intensity as she kissed him back.

“You won’t leave me until you’re done?” she whispered, their lips mere centimeters apart.

He shook his head.  “I’m not going anywhere,” he vowed again.  “Except to get a condom out of my back pocket.”  With those words, he grinned down at her before going back to tormenting her throat.  This time, he was slow and thorough, showing her he was completely in this moment with her.

Sage sighed, gasped, and then laughed!  Good grief, she laughed when his lips tickled her neck!  She’d never laughed during a sexual experience before.  Horrified, she clapped a hand over her mouth.

But Arik didn’t pull away.  He didn’t smirk and tell her she was a whore.  He didn’t stalk out of the bedroom, leaving her cold and lonely and so frustrated, she wanted to scream.

No, he didn’t do any of those things!  Instead, he captured her hands and laced his fingers with hers.  It was almost as if he wanted to entangle his body with hers as much as possible.  She loved it!  The feel of his hard, muscular body pressing against hers so intimately made her head spin with awareness.  There was no softness to Arik.  He was all angles and muscles and demanding male presence!

She cried out as his mouth covered her nipple.  Just as he’d done to her neck, his teeth scraped and teased, his lips sucked and soothed only to start the process over again.  And again!  He didn’t move down her body until she screamed in frustration, her hips grinding almost mindlessly against his.

She felt his hair between her fingers and looked down, shocked that she was literally pulling at his hair in an effort to show him where she wanted his mouth.  For long, delicious moments, he complied, but then he moved lower.  And lower!

“I can’t do that!” she yelped, wiggling away from his mouth.

He glanced up at her. “You can’t?” he asked softly.  That’s when she felt his fingers.  Stealthy fingers!  Those fingers moved towards her core, caressing and teasing, leaving her aching for release.

“Not yet, love,” he whispered, moving lower.  Arik kissed her hipbone and the soft curve of her stomach before moving lower still, tracing patterns along her inner thighs.

But before he could move to that most sensitive place, Sage jerked away, pulling herself out from underneath him.

“I know what you’re going to do!” she yelled, wrapping her arms around her body as if she could somehow hide her nakedness from him.

Arik blinked, staring up at her.  He thought he understood, but wanted confirmation.

“You think I’m going to stop,” he asked, taking her ankle firmly in hand.  With a gentle tug, he pulled her right back to him.  “You think I’m just tormenting you for my own pleasure, then I’m going to walk away?”

“Aren’t you?” she snarled, so angry that he could hear her voice tremble.

“Not a chance!” he whispered as his mouth covered that nubbin.  He didn’t fool around this time.   Maybe, next time.  And there definitely would be a next time!  Feeling her like this, sensing her trembling, almost uncontrollable desire, he knew that he wanted a next time.  Hell, he wanted at least a thousand next times, so that he could properly banish the bastard who had done this to her.

It took less than sixty seconds to make her scream with her first climax, her hands pulling at his hair as her hips writhed under his mouth.  Holding her steady, he continued his relentless ministrations until he felt her body start to come back down from that first one.

Even then, he didn’t relent.  Kissing his way back up her body, he gave her only soft brushes with his lips until he heard her breathing start to even out.  Only then did he nudge that passion once again.  He slid one finger inside of her, pressing his lips to hers at the same moment.  He inhaled her harsh gasp, feeling her body tighten as her desire flared.

When he felt her nails dig into his shoulders, while her hips lifted entreatingly, he grabbed for his jeans.  He grabbed the condoms from the back pocket, ripping one open and rolling it down his painfully throbbing shaft.

“Tell me you want this, Sage,” he whispered, kissing her before she could speak.  When he lifted away from her, he stopped, looking down at her.  “Do you want me as much as I want you?” he asked, taking her hand and wrapping her fingers around his erection.  He had to close his eyes as he felt her soft, tentative touch.  But only for a moment.  He couldn’t handle more than that. He quickly took her hands away, pulling them both up over her head.  When he entered her, it was slow and smooth, filling her inch by inch, while watching her features to make sure he wasn’t hurting her.

“You okay?” he asked when he was embedded in her, all the way to the hilt.

“Yes!” she sighed, arching her back as if she wanted to take him deeper.  Lifting her legs, she wrapped them around his waist.  That’s when he started thrusting.  Slowly at first, watching her face and wishing that she’d open her eyes so that he could see her reactions more clearly.  But
