“If I touch you, it won’t be gentle.” His lips hover above mine. “Say stop, lie to me, pretend you don’t want this.”

I don’t respond. Instead, I bridge the gap. His lips come down on mine, hard and fast. I feel the pressure behind his hands as he parts my lips with his tongue.

His mouth is hot on mine, and his hands tighten at the base of my neck. He bites my bottom lip—not hard enough that I pull away, but with enough force for my mouth to taste the blood.

His hands work their way down my body and squeeze my ass. He picks me up and gently places me on the hood of the car that sits on the lift in the ground. Then sets me down, like I’m precious cargo.

I moan. His tongue licks the side of my neck.

“I tried to stay away from you Scarlett,” he whispers into my neck.

I know exactly what he means—the tension, the pull.

“Stop trying.” He pulls away and kisses the top of my head.

I need more.

“Please.”

I wrap my legs around him. He comes back for more, devouring my mouth, while his hands trail down to my torso and land on my tits. He squeezes them.

“Fuck.”

I moan and pull him back up to my face. This isn’t a kiss, it’s violent. It feels like I’m fighting for whatever lives deep inside him. I feel him smile against my mouth.

He trails his hot, wet tongue down my chest and pulls my sports bra down, exposing my nipple. He takes it in his mouth.

He grabs a fist full of my hair, forcing my head back.

“Now you’re going to come for me, Scarlett.” He lets go of my bra, leaving me raw and exposed.

“Lift your hips.” He pulls at my shorts.

“Callum I was just boxing–”

“I’m a fucking man, Scarlett,” his tone is stern. “I don’t care what you’ve been doing– Lift. Your. Fucking. Hips.”

I comply and place both hands on the hood of the car to lift my hips. He pulls my shorts down, slowly, like we’ve done it before.

My back slams on the hood of the car as he grabs my hips and thrusts me forward. He doesn’t waste another minute. Callum’s lips meet the wetness between my legs. He licks my swollen clit, sucking the life out of me. It’s never felt like this before. I throw my head back.

“Callum, fuck.” I moan.

He pulls away only for a moment.

“Eyes on me, Scarlett.” I watch as he devours me, like I’m his reason for living.

Warmth builds behind my clit.

“Callum I’m so close.” I wrap my legs behind his head. I want to hold back.

“Callum.”

“Let go Scarlett.” I pant, the pressure building, tighter and tighter, until I can’t hold back any longer.

“Fuck.” My hands pull his hair as I finish on his mouth.

He grabs my face and kisses me, making me taste my own come. I grip his face between my hands and his jaw shifts. I can feel his hard dick against my center.
