TWENTY-SEVEN

Noah

For a moment, I’m shocked when her soft lips meet mine.

Then, I spear my fingers through her hair to angle her head, causing her to moan as I claim her mouth. Thrusting my tongue inside, I lose myself in her.

I lift her onto my lap, but I remember I just got home from work, and I brought some tourists to the drunk tank. I need to take off my utility belt and vest and shower before this goes any further.

With a groan, I pull back.

“Baby, as much as I want to continue this, I have to shower.”

She pouts a little in response and looks around like she’s embarrassed.

I bring my hand to her chin and make her look at me.

“I want nothing more than to continue this right here on the porch swing, but I dealt with a drunk, and I don’t want to take this further without a shower.

Plus, I don’t want to risk Jess coming out here and seeing anything.

Do you want to join me in the shower? That way, the likelihood Jess will walk in on us is smaller?

” And you know, to conserve water and shit.

I might be pushing my luck, but I’ll never know if I don’t ask.

“I didn’t even think about Jess. I’m such a bad sister,” she says and looks down.

“Absolutely not. You’re the best sister she could ask for. I’m glad I can make you lose your head and forget about stuff like that.” I smirk at her. “So what do you say? Join me in the shower?” I hold my breath.

The moment she nods, I stand and offer her my hand. Without missing a beat, she puts her hand in mine, and we walk inside.

Hating that I have to take my hand away from hers, I quickly take my utility belt off and put my gun in the safe. Once completed, I walk back toward her and frame her face with my hands, bringing her lips to mine.

I dominate the kiss, groaning at the taste of her. Bending a little farther, I put my hands just under her butt and lift her up.

Moaning, she hooks her legs behind my back.

“I know I said I didn’t want to get the grossness on you, but since we’re both taking a shower, I don’t care,” I tell her as I take us to my bedroom. “Reach down and open my door, baby, my hands are full.” I squeeze her ass to prove my point.

She pulls her lips from mine and looks over her shoulder to find my door handle. As soon as I hear the door click, I push it open with my boot and bring us into my room.

I take a deep breath to try and calm my racing heart. I’ve wanted her in my space since before our first official date, but I wanted it to be on her time.

“You okay?” she asks me softly, like she thinks I’m having second thoughts.

It might scare her if she knew exactly how much I wanted this.

“Yeah, my Lunabella, I’m more than okay.” I walk us to my bathroom and set her down.

She looks around, taking in the claw-foot tub and separate shower stall that has a bench in it. I had it installed because sometimes, after a long shift, I just want to sit down and let the water hit me, but now I’m thanking myself for very different reasons.

Finally, she looks at my Jack and Jill sinks before meeting my eyes again.

“Your bathroom is huge,” she says, stepping back into my space.

I shrug and start to unbutton my shirt. “Yeah, but after a long day at work, being able to take a bath or a hot shower and just sit in the steam and let the day wash away is exactly what I need. The floors are also heated, and the towel rack is a warmer. I don’t use them often this time of year, but it’s nice during the winter months. ”

Her eyes swim with desire as I take my shirt off, put it in the hamper, and move to undo my vest.

“Like what you see, baby?” I ask and hang my vest on the back of the door before toeing off my boots and walking toward her.

Her chest rises with a deep breath, and she nods.

“Can I take your shirt off?”

“Please,” she says on a moan, and I can’t get to her soon enough.

I bend again to pick her up and place her on the counter.

After giving her a quick kiss, I bring her shirt up and over her head and toss it in my hamper.

She fists my undershirt to pull me closer, and I’m glad she listened to me after our first date to just go with what she wants to do.

I have no problem taking the lead. Hell, I enjoy it.

But I love watching her blossom, knowing she’s comfortable enough to try.

I pull her closer to the edge and kiss the side of her jaw. “You’re so beautiful.” Kissing down her neck, I cup her breast through her sports bra and moan into our kiss.

“Noah.”

And, damn, do I love the way she moans my name.

“It’s been too long since I’ve touched you.” Pulling back, I have to remind myself to take my time. “Can I take your bra off?” My voice is gruff.

She tightens her fingers in my shirt and bites at her lip as she brings her eyes to meet mine.

“You can wait for me here while I shower if you don’t want to do anything else,” I tell her softly and lean forward, kissing her forehead, my lips lingering.

I hear her deep breath before she whispers, “I want you to do it.”

“Are you sure? Nothing has to happen tonight,” I tell her, because as much as I want her, I’ll never push her further than she’s ready for.

A smirk pulls at her lips as she nods. “Yeah, I’m sure.”

“Arms up, baby.” My voice comes out strained as lust courses through my body.

She lifts her arms, and I peel her sports bra off and toss it behind me. I look at her, and my breath catches. As I take her in, she moves to cover herself up.

“No, baby, don’t cover yourself up from me. Your beauty takes my breath away.”

“I’m not as endowed as some other women.”

“I don’t care about other women, my Lunabella. To me, you’re perfect.”

And I take her mouth again. She brings her hands to rest low on my abdomen, and her warmth soaks through my shirt, lighting a fire in me. I brush my fingers down her side, cupping her breasts. When I brush my thumb over her nipples, she arches into my touch.

I trail my lips down her neck to the swell of her breasts. Pulling away, I look up at her and see her looking down at me shyly. “Is this still okay?”

Her breath catches as she nods quickly. Leaning forward, I latch onto one of her nipples, gripping her other breast with my hand, and I feel her hips roll against me clumsily.

As I suck a little harder, she groans, “Noah.” Her fingers thread through my hair to hold me in place.

“Your body was made for me, Luna. Never doubt that. Are you ready for more? If you aren’t, we’ll just shower and that’s it.”

“Please. Noah, please don’t stop.”

Her breathless moans fuel my desire.

“Thank fuck,” I whisper as I set her back on her feet and go to turn the shower on.

When I spin back around, she’s already taken her leggings and underwear off. Her arms hang at her sides, a finger on her right hand tapping her thigh as she alternates between looking at me and around the bathroom.

I wait for her to look at me again. When our eyes meet, I slowly strip my pants and boxers off and kick them to the side. As she rakes her eyes over my naked body, her throat bobs with a hard swallow.

I know the moment she sees my dick for the first time because she pauses. Her sharp inhale seemingly echoes in the room.

I walk toward her and place my finger under her chin, forcing her to meet my eyes. A mixture of excitement and worry punctuates her expression.

“There is no way that thing will fit. Maybe this is a bad idea.” Her cheeks flush as she looks down at me again.

I don’t fight the chuckle. “You’re good for my ego, baby, but I promise it will fit. But we aren’t going that far tonight. Not with Jess in the house.”

“I don’t know, Noah.” Nerves lace her voice.

“Do you trust me?” I’m nervous for her answer because if she doesn’t, I won’t touch her again until she does.

“Of course I trust you. That’s a silly question,” she says, seemingly offended.

“Then trust me when I say I promise it will fit when we take that next step.” I give her my hand to join me in the shower. Stepping in, I let her have the water first before removing the shower head and spraying the seat down to warm it up. “Sit down, baby.”

She sits and looks at me with lust-filled eyes, and I drop to my knees in front of her, running my fingers up and down her thighs before I spread her legs apart. “Is this okay? Can I see how wet you are for me?”

“Yes,” she says confidently.

I run my knuckles over her slit, causing her to moan. “Ah yeah, baby, you’re fucking soaked for me.” Slowly, I press a single finger inside. “So fucking tight.”

She gasps at the invasion, and I pause. “Does this feel okay?”

“Yes, I feel full.”

“Wait till it’s my cock, but we’re starting with this tonight. To get you ready.” She nods. “I’m going to move my finger again, okay?”

She nods again, her eyes not leaving the erotic sight in front of her as I move my finger in and out of her, gradually picking up the pace as I feel her body relax. I curl my finger up and bring my mouth back to her nipple, my tongue matching the pace of my finger.

She moans and tenses as her pussy starts to flutter.

“Let go, my Lunabella. Come all over my finger, baby.”

Her chest heaves with her rapid breaths, and she just nods.

Taking her nipple back into my mouth, I bite down just hard enough to help her let go. When her orgasm sweeps through her, I release her nipple and slam my mouth over hers to swallow her cries.

As she starts to come down, she opens her eyes and brushes some of the hair out of my face. “Noah…that…was”

I slowly start to move my fingers again. “Just the start. Give me one more, baby.”

“I don’t think I can do it again.” Her voice is thick with lust.

“I know you can” is all I say as my mouth descends on her hot center, causing her back to arch.

Her hands go to my hair, and I can’t tell if she’s pulling me closer or pushing me away.

With a groan, I eat her like she’s my last meal and slowly add a second finger.

“Noah, it’s too much,” she pants.

Curling my fingers, I find that special spot again and flick my tongue against her clit. It’s not long before her perfect pussy starts to flutter again. I bring my free hand up to pinch her nipple, causing another orgasm to claim her.

“Noah!” she yells and then covers her mouth as I prolong her orgasm just a little bit.

“See, I told you we’ll make it fit,” I say with a smirk as her sated eyes meet mine.

Her laughter makes my heart beat a little faster. “I still don’t know about that, but I can’t wait to try.”

Taking her mouth in a searing kiss, I pull her to stand. “Stay in my room.”

She nods. “I want that tonight.”

“Not just tonight, Luna. Move your stuff in here.”

“What do you think Jess will think?”

“I think she knows more than we give her credit for. But if it makes you feel better, we can talk to her about it.”

“I think we should, or maybe we should wait till she asks us? I don’t know.”

“How about we start with tonight and go from there?”

“I think that’s perfect. Should we shower before we turn into prunes?” Her eyes flick down to my still-hard dick. “Um, do you need help with that?”

Handing her my shampoo, I laugh. “No, tonight was about you, baby, but I think you should talk to Am about watching Jess on our next day off.”

“Why?” she asks, washing her hair.

As she rinses her hair, I tell her, “So I can show you just how perfectly my dick will fit in that tight pussy of yours.”

Her eyes snap open and flick down to my dick before coming back up to meet my gaze.

“Is that okay?”

She nods and watches me wash my body.

I smile at her as I slide in next to her to rinse my body. “You all done and ready for bed, baby?”

“I don’t have anything to sleep in. I’ll have to run back to my room.”

“You can sleep in one of my shirts.” I shrug and turn off the water, then reach out to grab her one of the warmed towels.

She moans as she wraps it around her body. “Oh my god, this feels amazing.”

“Yeah, I’m telling you, it’s so nice after a long day of work. I’ve been meaning to add one to the guest bathroom but haven’t gotten around to it.”

“That makes sense if it’s not being used often.”

After wrapping a towel around myself, I walk to my closet and grab a pair of boxers and an old college shirt for her. “Here you go, my Lunabella.”

I return to the bathroom and set it on the counter next to her as she braids her hair again.

“Thanks, Noah,” she says as her eyes meet mine in the mirror.

“Anything for you,” I tell her as I rest my hands on her hip and give a gentles squeeze. “Now come on. Get your sexy ass in bed.”

She smirks as she ties her braid off and follows me into my room. “Do you have a side you prefer to sleep on?”

“No, normally it’s wherever I end up passing out as I fall into bed,” I admit as I flip the covers back.

She crawls into bed, and I quickly follow, pulling her close to me. Turning my head toward my Alexa, I ask her to turn the lights off.

“Good night, Noah.”

I kiss her temple. “Night, baby.”

Once her breaths even out, I know I’m going to do everything I can to make sure she stays with me forever. I quickly fall into one of the best sleeps I’ve ever had in my life.
