Story: The Rival
Not his bed.
He didn’t count his experience with Hannah. He hadn’t taken ownership of his life yet. Of the bed he was sleeping in. Of the world he inhabited. And since then, it had been a series of one-night stands.
And it didn’t allow for him to really want. To really explore. To really get what he needed.
Maybe it had never been there before. Maybe there had never been a woman that he would have wanted like this. Maybe it was only Quinn, and that was why she was here. That was why it was her. That was why, even though he’d had an empty nest for two years, this was the first time he had felt compelled to have a woman here. Now.
Because he could have. He could’ve extended his time with any number of his lovers in the years since Camilla had left, and he hadn’t.
It was just this outrageous little carrot that made him want to be something he wasn’t. That made him want to do things he never had before.
He kissed her stomach, lowering himself onto his knees as he finished unbuttoning her dress. He teased her with his tongue, around the waistband of her panties.
“You...you like doing that,” she whispered as he pulled her underwear down.
“What?”
“You like...that.”
He lifted a brow and he leaned in, dragging his tongue through her sweet folds. “This?”
She gasped and braced herself on his shoulder. “Yes. That.”
“What man wouldn’t want a taste of that?”
“I don’t know. You know, what with the whole not-having-any-experience thing.”
“Right. Believe me when I tell you, it’s about the best thing I can think of.”
And he proved his point by setting her on the edge of the bed and draping her legs over his shoulders as he went deep, indulging himself utterly and completely.
She arched her hips up off the bed, pressing herself more firmly into his mouth, and he reveled in it.
But she was still partly dressed, and he needed to fix that. He took her to the edge, and then denied her, and enjoyed watching her sweat and pant on his bed, wanting more. Needing more.
He reached behind her and unhooked her bra, removed the dress the rest of the way and took the bra off along with it.
“You are mean,” she said.
“Why is that?”
“Because you didn’t... You won’t let me...”
Something primal and satisfying rolled through him, his body so hard he could barely see straight. Could barely think.
“Because I won’t let you come?”
“Levi,” she said.
“You’re going to get all prudish on me now after I’ve had you in my mouth?”
“Levi,” she said, scolding.
“Tell me what you want.”
“You. I want you.”
“I think that’s something you might have to earn.”
