Unable to unhear it, I keep rocking my hips. “Again,” I tell her. “Tell me again.”
“I love you.”
“Fuck, baby.”
I move harder, faster, loving her words as much as I love how reckless she makes me. When she cries out once more, I still, spurting inside her, my orgasm so intense, I swear I see stars.
I collapse on top of her, and we both try to get our breaths back.
“I have no words,” she pants.
“I do.” Our gazes meet. “I love you, too, Tilly Jade. I can’t tell you how long I’ve waited for you to say those words.”
“I mean them.” Her eyes soften, tears welling in them. “That was perfect.”
“Then don’t cry,” I say. “We finally got our shit together. That’s something to celebrate.”
She smiles up at me, and I’m lost in a whole world that is Tilly Jade St. Clair. “I’ll drink to that.”
“Speaking of which, I haven’t even fed you.”
She wraps her arms around my neck. “I think we have plenty of time to eat.” Her tone is nothing short of sexy and seductive. “Don’t you?”
“Are you seriously trying to give me a heart attack?” I quip, rubbing my nose over hers.
She flutters her eyelashes. “Would I do such a thing?”
I kiss her nose, then lower my voice. “Did I hurt you? Are you okay?”
Her grin is contagious, and we lock eyes. “It was amazing. Everything I wanted it to be and more.”
“Do you want to stay with me tonight?” I’m hopeful. There’s nothing I want more than to curl up with her in my arms.
“Yes,” she replies without hesitation. “But if you can answer one thing first.”
“Shoot.”
“Are you a snuggler?”
I laugh, rolling onto my back, bringing her with me, as I wrap my arms around her in a bear hug. “What do you think?”
CHAPTER 9
JADE
I wake up, and for a second, I don’t know where I am. A moment later, I wince, remembering where I’ve been. Holy smokes. We stayed up all night worshipping each other. I have to say, being in Dustin’s bed may be my new favorite thing.
He’s not only attentive and sweet, but he is a machine in every sense of the word. The idea that I barely even touched him and he came all over himself makes me so hot, and a little proud that I could do that to him.
Dustin treated my body like a pleasure island. I will be having illicit dreams from now to eternity about what his tongue can do. It’s like he can’t get enough, and neither can I.
As much as I want to stay in bed with him all day, we have to get to the meeting. Diamond is on the warpath.
I reach across the bed but find a cold mattress. My eyes pop open, and I sit up, pulling the sheets to my chest. I listen for movement, and when I hear Dusty whistling a tune as he gets closer, I sit back against the headboard.
He’s only wearing sweatpants, his hair mussed from our long night of debauchery, and he has a twinkle in his eye that definitely wasn’t there yesterday.
“If you just made me coffee, I swear I’m never leaving,” I tell him when he walks to my side of the bed and carefully hands me a huge steaming mug.
