“I know.”
r /> “And why not?”
“Because I’m scared,” she admitted, finally looking up at him. Her eyes were wide and glassy, showing off every emotion flowing through her.
“Of?” he prodded. He wanted to hear her say the words. Wanted the full confirmation that she was in as much as he was.
“I don’t just want to be another notch on your belt, Cullen,” she sighed. She looked away again, so he couldn’t read the emotion on her face. Breathing heavy, she turned back and looked him in the eye. “If we do this—if I let you into my world, let you into Josef’s world, let you see the real me—then I just need to know that you understand that.”
“You were never just another notch on my belt.” He had to stop himself from reaching over and taking her in his arms again. He wanted so badly to hold her, reassure her. “And I promise that I not only understand it, I cherish it, and that we’re in this together.”
“Then yes, I’m interested.”
Chapter Eighteen
The words had barely left her lips before he was pulling her into his lap and pressing his lips to hers. Her mostly empty plate clattered to the floor, making a harsh noise, as the food that was left on it went scattering across the hardwood. His flurry of movements caught her off guard, forcing her to break the kiss to catch her breath.
“Cullen,” she whispered.
“Time for talking later, Menina,” he growled, returning his lips to hers.
All the tenderness from his touch this afternoon on the boat was gone, replaced with the pure primal wanton lust that he had displayed last night. His growled words, paired with his rushed, rough actions were exhilarating, and Leona wasn’t sure she had ever felt as wanted by another person as she did right then. Big, rough hands made quick work of removing the tank top she was still in from the boat ride and tossing it aside, barely breaking their kiss. When those big hands found her bare skin, the feel of his flesh against hers made her feel as if she’d come alive in this moment. As they started to roam over her body, they left a trail of heat behind, further igniting her insides.
But the feel of his hands on her bare torso wasn’t enough—she needed more. She shifted to straddle him, trying to make more contact with his groin. She was only just able to get her knees on either side of his big, powerful thighs, giving her the right angle to grind against his growing erection. Slowly circling her hips so that her center grazed his, causing the friction she craved, she let out a long, husky moan. Tugging on the strings of her bikini as she continued to grind, he quickly found her nipples with his thumbs and forefingers, pinching and tweaking them until they were hard little points.
She threw her head back, the sensations running through her body as he played with her nipples causing her to feel as if she were vibrating. She could feel him shifting underneath her, but wasn’t ready for his quick move to stand, still holding her in his arms as he did. Her right heel connected with the bowl of M&Ms that rested on the table, sending it flying across the room, the candies scattering everywhere. Cullen didn’t even blink an eye at the disturbance, just continued to carry her toward the bed.
“The M&Ms,” Leona said, as he moved his mouth down to her nipple.
“They don’t matter,” he said, not pulling away from her breast. “Besides, I see the green ones are having the desired effect.”
He tossed her down on the bed, and she could see him watching her breasts jiggle as the mattress bounced up and down underneath her. The look on his face told her he wanted to devour her like she was one of the chocolate candies they had just let scatter, and she was about to let him.
“That’s why I have to pick out the green ones?” she asked, propping herself up on her elbows, pushing out her chest.
“Sure is,” he answered, pulling his shirt over his head and dropping his swim trunks. His big, beautiful cock was once again on full display, and Leona had to stop herself from reaching for it.
“I already have a hard enough time resisting you,” he said, pointing his chin down at his erection, a look on his face showing that he was proud of his pun. “I didn’t need any help from candy. But thought it wouldn’t hurt to have you all amped up.”
She giggled, throwing her head back. “Cullen Cruz, you play dirty.”
“Oh, I’ll show you dirty,” he smirked.
Not wasting another second, he rid her of her bikini bottoms and returned his mouth to her nipples. His mouth was hot and wet, and his tongue circled the taut little peaks like it was made for just that purpose. With every movement, Leona could feel herself getting wetter and the tell-tale tingle in her center growing more intense. Running his hand down her now completely naked body, he slipped his hand between her legs, finding her wetness. He let his fingers play in her folds for a moment before ever so lightly flicking across her clit, sending a jolt through her. Her hips bucked in response, wanting him to find that bundle of nerves again and again. She wanted to be sky-high again, in a way only he could take her.
A wicked little laugh suddenly came from his throat, making her realize he had other plans. That didn’t stop her from wiggling around, trying to force his fingers to the exact spot she wanted—needed—his attention the most.
With a quick popping noise, he let go of the nipple he had in his mouth and started to kiss his way down her body. Stopping only briefly to tease her belly button with his tongue, he continued until he reached her mound. As he paused briefly, she could feel his breath against her wetness, teasing her, and she thought the anticipation might kill her. It wasn’t that she’d never done this, it just wasn’t something she and Carlos did regularly. Other than a quick blow job here and there because she was “unavailable,” as he put it, oral sex was not in their repertoire. The light bulb project was based on quickies in unoccupied hotel rooms, broom closets, and the laundry room, not long drawn-out lovemaking sessions.
Before she could register what was happening, he pulled her clit into his mouth and sucked on it, hard. With just that movement of his mouth, it was as if every nerve in her body had made its way to her sex and everything she felt was right there. Just as quickly as he had started, he let it go, and swiped the pointed tip of his tongue across it. Now she was sure that every nerve ending had migrated, and that she would never ever feel anything as incredible again.
His tongue continued to move across her sex, going from the very top of her slit to the very bottom and returning again, circling her clit, sucking on it, and just overall worshipping her. Her entire body felt weightless, while at the same time unable to move. She was anchored to him via his mouth and would gladly stay that way forever. Damn, this man was seriously talented with that muscle.
Returning his full focus to her clit, he slowly inserted one large finger inside her, massaging the inside of her entrance with the pad of his finger. That was all it took for fireworks to go off inside Leona and for her to see stars.
“Oh, oh, oh!” she screamed, letting out a loud wail, bucking her hips, holding on to the sheets so she could keep herself grounded. Her climax coursed through her entire body, wave after wave of pleasure seeming as if it was never going to stop. She’d never come this hard before and she had no idea that it was possible. So much for every other orgasm she’d ever had in her entire life.
Cullen slowly kissed his way back up her body as she came back down to earth. His heavy breathing slowed, the feel of his lush lips warm against her skin which was now damp with sweat. It didn’t seem to matter what it was doing, his mouth felt good against her, and she cherished each and every moment of contact. His mouth found hers and he kissed her, returning to those slow, drawn-out movements that he seemed to be rather fond of. Truth be told, she was starting to like them too. No—more than like. She was starting to crave this. The way he swept his tongue across hers at this leisurely pace was intoxicating and something that she could easily become full-on addicted to. She might even already be at that point.
