I pull back. “Behave.” I run my nose along her jaw, breathing her in. “Did you really think you’re going to get what you want just because of some whining and pleading? That’s not how this works, love.”

“Fuck you.”

I pull back my hips and snap them forward. The force of it makes her head hit the door with a dull thud.

She gasps, then glares at me. “Fuck your puny shit car too.”

I laugh against her neck. “Duly noted.” I slow down again.

“God, Theo,please!” Her voice is equal parts pain and desperation. “Are you torturing me because I called you a bastard?”

“I’m torturing you because you’re thirty seconds from coming all over my cock and you still haven’t told me who the fuck that man was.”

“More like forty-five.”

“Challenge accepted.” I let go of her wrists and pinch her clit between my fingers. She yelps.

She slips her hands into the back pockets of my pants, pulling me deeper into her.

“More,” she whispers, wrapping her legs around me and crossing her feet at the bottom of my back. “Fuck me harder. Fuck me until I can’tthink.”

Good god. “I won’t last, love,” I say, picking up the pace. “You feel too fucking good. It’s taking every ounce of self-control to hold back right now.”

All it takes is one more breathy‘please’from her pretty mouth for the shackles of my self-restraint to disintegrate into thin air.

My movements become sloppier, and we develop a rhythm. Holly begins to let out gentle, quiet little whimpers. My skin feels ready to burst into flames. I keep fucking her steadily, sinking in all the way to the hilt, my thumb pressing her clit.

I kiss her again and every thrust has her crying into my mouth, her nails digging into my shoulders. Her legs are shaking, and every time I go deep, her back arches.

“I’m gonna come, I’m gonna come…” Her moans grow louder.

I cover her mouth with my hand. She screams into my palm, the sound muffled, and my forehead falls to hers, our noses brushing against each other.

She’s so goddamn beautiful like this. I want togouge my eyes out just to preserve the image.Keep it etched in my skull. Untainted and permanent.

I let go of her mouth.

Our mouths crash together, teeth and tongue and shelets go. Just unravels. Her pussy clamps around me, tight and wet and fucking perfect, and she comes so hard,Isee stars.

I grunt at the sensation of her tight pussy walls pulsing around me, and it doesn’t take long before I come with a loud groan.

We lie in silence for a few minutes, catching our breath.

By the time I drop her back home it’s almost two in the morning. I stay put in the car, keeping my eyes on the window of her flat, waiting for the light to go out. When it finally does, I pull my phone from my pocket and send her a goodnight text before flicking through a few websites mindlessly.

A cold breeze sweeps past me and the confirmation email for my new Kia SUV pops up on my screen two minutes later.

Home

I simply do not want to talk about it.

The elevator doors ping open. I walk down the hallway towards my apartment. My skin is practically buzzing, bruised in places I didn’t even know could bruise. I slip my hand into the pocket of Theo’s jacket — yes, I’m still wearing it — and pull out my phone.
