He pulled his mouth away from my sensitive nipple, and the cool night air blowing over it made a shiver run down my back. Ryder was on his knees in front of me, his hands on my thighs as he slid them underneath my skirt, my panties already soaked just from sucking his cock and his hands on me.

With expert hands, he lifted my legs so my ankles hooked over his shoulders.

I gripped the railing so I wouldn’t topple backward into the flowerbed.

He leaned over, pushing my dress up so the only thing between us was the silk of my panties.

He quickly pushed them aside before hooking a finger inside of me.

I bit down on my bottom lip to keep from crying out, my body ready for so much more.

With an almost sinister smile, he dipped his head low, running his tongue along my wet slit. His eyes never left mine as he dove in, adding his tongue along with his swirling finger.

My hands aching from holding onto the railing, I moved them to the back of his head for support.

I tried to keep myself steady, but his touch was almost too much, my whole body shaking as pressure built in my spine, and I gave into my orgasm that came hard and fast. “Ryder, oh, god,” I cried out as I shuddered again around his fingers.

He didn’t say a word. He just chuckled against my pussy, and the vibration almost sent me into orbit.

When he’d wrung me out, he lifted his head, my wetness shining on his chin in the moonlight. I expected him to lift me off the railing, but he didn’t stop; he kept going, adding another finger as he lowered his head again and sucked hard on my clit, lapping up every bit of my arousal.

It didn’t take long for another orgasm to build, sparks shooting through my body as I gripped his hair tightly, the intense pleasure he was giving soaring through me.

Just as I thought I’d finished coming down from my high, Ryder’s lips were on mine, letting me taste my salty sweetness as he pulled me closer to his hard body.

In a flurry of kisses, we peeled the rest of our clothes off as I grabbed the blanket off the bench and flipped it out onto the porch floor.

“Ryder,” I moaned as I pressed his head closer to me.

“I need to be in you,” he mumbled.

“Then get at it, sweetheart.” Reaching for his hand, I sank to the floor, pulling him down with me until his massive body hovering over mine, his cock pressing against my wet pussy that I so badly wanted to feel him inside of me.

He fumbled with his jeans, trying not to break our kiss as he pulled a foil packet from his pocket.

“Do you always have that in there?” I asked breathlessly, trying not to sound overly jealous, but I was.

I hated every woman he’d had in the three years we were apart, and I hated myself for letting there be other women.

“Well, I was hoping I’d get to use this one with you tonight,” he said with a smile before opening the packet and sliding the latex over his massive cock.

He teased my wet entrance, only putting the head of his cock in and then pulling it out.

I groaned in frustration, and he laughed.

“You want more of this, Lexie?” he asked as he knelt back, and I felt the absence of his closeness.

“Yes, please.” Looking up at him, he towered over me, dark hair scattered across his chest, leading down his stomach like an arrow pointed at his cock.

“Anything for you, sweetheart,” he said with a grin before filling me to the hilt.

I gasped at the familiar fullness that I’d missed so much, gripping his shoulders as he slowly rocked against my hips.

But I knew neither of us wanted it slow.

It had been too damn long, and we both needed the release.

“Fuck, just like I remember. Lex, I’m not sure I’ll be able to last long; this is the only thing I’ve dreamed of for the last three years.” He groaned in my ear.

I wrapped my legs around his back, and he pulled me up so I was sitting on his thighs. We never separated, and I wasn’t sure how he got into this position, but I wasn’t about to obsess over it. I pressed my breasts against his warm chest, and his hands gripped my ass cheeks.

Digging my nails into his back, I let my body relax into his as my orgasm shattered through me, leaving every part me shaking.

“Ryder,” I cried out into the night as my orgasm overwhelmed me.

The world went quiet. My pulse pounded in my ears, and there was nothing except him and me, as close as two people could be.

“That’s it, Lexie. Give it to me. I want to feel you come hard around my cock again. Let me feel you,” he growled, ramming harder against me. “Lean back.” He ordered, and I loosened my grip on him. He slid his hands up my back and took the weight off me.

“Fuck, Lexie. That’s a beautiful sight,” he murmured, thrusting harder as he watched my tits bounce.

A deep, tingling sensation formed at the base of my spine.

I’d never needed anyone like I needed this man.

My legs began to shake, and I ground my clit against the hand he’d slipped between us as I came to a shuttering climax.

“I’m coming, oh god, Ryder, please,” I begged as another orgasm rolled through my body, and I spasmed around his cock.

“That’s it, sweetheart. Rid me. Take what you need.” He thrust into me and roared as he emptied himself. Even through the condom, I could feel him spilling, filling it up with everything he had. He rests his head on my shoulder as he tries to slow down his ragged breathing.

We crashed down onto the blanket, barely able to move as my breath came out slow and shallow. My fingers danced along his back. “That was amazing,” he whispered into the shell of my ear, our bodies still connected as he held me close.

“It really was,” I managed to breathe.

Again, I wrapped my arms around his neck and clung to him like he was the only lifeline I had.

Maybe he was. Would tonight change things between us?

Would letting him in completely do irreversible damage?

Even if it did, we had to be there for the two kids who had been left to us, so however long this thing lasted between us, we had one goal.

“God, I’ve missed you,” he mumbled into my neck. “Not just because of the sex, I’ve just missed you.”

“I’ve missed you too,” I whispered as I let go of him and placed my hands on his cheeks. Lowering my head, I kissed him tenderly, exploring his mouth and just reacquainting myself with this man I’d know absolutely everything about at one point in time.

I could have fallen asleep right here; the sex workout was exhilarating. But being in his arms was a dream I didn’t know I’d been missing. I knew we’d have to get up, get dressed, and head inside soon, but for that moment, I just wanted to stay lost in his touch.

“I need to deal with the condom. I’ll meet you inside,” he said before he lowered his head and kissed me as he pulled out.

He wrapped the blanket around me and headed into the house.

Even though I’d just been fucked to within an inch of my life, I missed his closeness. Like a moth to a flame, I needed him.

“Sweetheart, are you going to lie out there all night, or do we get round two on the bed?” Rolling over, I looked at him, holding the screen door open, leaning against the doorjamb in all his naked glory. Damn, that man was a sight.

Scrambling up as fast as I could, I let the blanket fall and walked over to him, pulling his head down for a kiss. He lifted me up, and we headed down the hallway to our room.

Ryder dropped me onto the bed and looked down at me with a smirk. “On your hands and knees,” he demanded. My eyes went wide, but I did as he said.
