I'm writhing in seconds, my back arching, my hands fisting the sheets. He pushes my thighs higher, exposing me further, and then sucks gently.

My moans are louder now and I squirm as the feeling becomes too intense.

He slips a finger inside me, sliding back and forth gently at first, then pumping harder as his thumb and tongue swirl against my nub.

I lose it.

I come hard against his mouth, my hands fisting his hair. He waits, his tongue dipping down as I continue to pulsate from the explosion of sensations. When I'm done he scoots up towards me, his thick erection in his hand, ready to enter.

But I push him back. "Not this time, Larue. My turn. Lie back."

He laughs. "It's not a quid pro quo, Gidget."

"I know." I've resisted giving him oral, I have bad memories of it from my ex. But I push that thought away and concentrate on the beautiful, caring man in front of me. He is a gentle lover. So, so gentle. "I want to, Ronin."

Chapter Nineteen - RONIN

I didn't think it was possible to be any more turned on right now, but I am. Her words have turned me up a thousand decibels.

Rook watches me. "I want to, Ronin."

Her eyes are still half-mast from coming hard, her taste still on my tongue. I swallow because this girl—this girl makes me feel more than good. It's like every touch, every look, every sound that comes from her mouth is something sensual and perfect.

"Lie back," she says again.

My crooked grin makes her smile as I lie down next to her. She twists her body, pressing her br**sts against my chest, then stretches up and kisses me, just little kisses at first, as if she's deciding if she likes the taste of herself. Then she straddles me and opens her mouth, her tongue done probing, ready for more.

Just as fast, she stops, her body sliding down, her chin rubbing against my stomach muscles as she descends. She plays with my hard-on for a second, then her tongue slides along the slit in my head and dips in for a taste.

Before I can even process how f**king good that feels, her mouth is desperate to wrap me up. She pumps again and again, sucking slightly, tonguing me as she pulls back, then massaging me with her lips as she descends down my shaft.

I give up.

The breath comes out of me in a soft rush as I relax back into the pillows and enjoy her. Fully enjoy her and everything she's doing right now. My whole body is on fire for this girl, my arms ache to flip her over and take her from behind, make her scream my name over and over again.

But I calm myself and suck in a breath between my teeth as I try to maintain control. I moan as the hot air of her laugh tickles the tip of my cock.

"Gidge," I say in a throaty whisper. My hands go to her head, pushing her slightly, compounding her rhythm as she evokes so much more in me than just a desire to come.

"Gidge," I repeat. "Climb on, baby."

She continues with her pumping and sucking but I'm not about to come this way. I sit up and toss her over on the bed next to me, then crawl up between her legs.

She's laughing at me.

"What's funny, Gidget?"

"You love me."

I laugh back. "I do, and I'm going to show you just how much every chance I get." I push her thighs open wider and flick my c**k against her swollen clit a few times, back and forth, making her moan. She likes that.

I slide inside when she's in mid-gasp. She's so wet, so ready for me again. I ease in and out, slowly, then harder. Slow pumps become short thrusts, and then deep, penetrating, plunging assaults. Her back arches and her fingernails dig into my shoulders.

This is her signal. Her signal that she's gonna come and there's no way to avoid it.

At least that's what I think it says to her. But to me it says, Do something spectacular right f**king now, Ronin, and I will make the most amazing noises for you.

I reach down and play with her, slip between her folds and then sweep up to her clit and twirl my thumb, pushing it around gently in little circles.

She screams this time.

And I can't help it, this girl just does it for me. I lean down and growl into her neck as I come with her.

We fall asleep like this, me clutching her around the waist, her legs twined around mine in a way that makes me feel both wanted and whole. I wake once when she gets up to use the bathroom. But as soon as she returns to my bed I tug her ass up against me and fondle her br**sts until we drift off again.

When we wake it's late afternoon. "Hey," I say, squeezing her breast a little. "Wake up, let's not waste the day."

She moans and turns away and I just have to smile. I've never met a girl who sleeps so soundly. She's not a naturally early riser and she's not easy to wake. Ever.

"Rook." I try again. This time I breathe into her ear and her shoulder draws up against my face.

She growls at me.

"Come on, I have plans for us."

"What plans?" she moans.

"Bike ride to the mountains."

"I don't wanna go to Black Hawk, I can't even gamble or drink. It's boring."

"Not gambling, Rook. A ride up to Lookout Mountain. Come on, it's romantic. Besides, it's good practice for the road trip to Sturgis."

She turns. "I thought we were taking an RV up there?"

"We are, but you can't ride into Sturgis in an RV, Gidge." I laugh as I picture Spence RV'ing into Sturgis. "Spencer would be laughed out of town. He said he's working on your bike too, says it's real nice."
