his soul in hers, breaching his mental defenses when even the VC couldn’t.
A slight blush on her cheeks and a sexy little smile on her lips, Angela lowered her eyes as she hooked her thumbs in the waistband of her white satin panties and slid them off. The triangular patch of dark hair between her legs made his breath catch. It seemed everything about her was beautiful.
He cupped one of her calves in his hands and stroked upward, over her soft, smooth thighs and ran his fingers through the arousing thatch of curly hair. With one of her hips in his hand, he used his other to continue stroking her soft mound. His thumb found the ruddy peak of her clit and he stroked over it. She drew a sharp breath at his touch.
Tenderly, he parted her thighs and circled her clit with this fingertip, pushing it in slightly. She felt so hot and wet that his erection leapt. It seemed he turned her on as much as she aroused him.
Removing a wet fingertip, he circled her clit.
Angela shivered and fell back on the rug, closing her eyes as he stroked and caressed where she was so warm and aching. Her clit throbbed as he stroked faster.
“Oh, Abe!” she gasped. His free hand moved up her ribs and found her breast. His thumbs rolled over her nipple and clit simultaneously. Angela was going to shatter, but she didn’t care. He was giving her something she so desperately needed. So desperate—
“Ahh! Oh, God! Oh, Abe!” she panted, her entire body convulsing in hot waves of throbbing pleasure. As they crashed over her, she couldn’t see. Her heartbeat echoed in her ears. Every muscle in her body convulsed in the most exquisite manner imaginable.
She lay still for several moments, her eyes closed as her breathing returned to normal. Angela had orgasms before. She enjoyed masturbating every now and then, just to rid herself of natural sexual urges. Never in her life had she dreamed an orgasm so intense. It must have been because she’d been under Abe’s control. The thought of him touching her was as exciting as the actual sensations. The combination created almost unbearable pleasure.
“That had to be the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen,” Abe said, lying beside her and stroking her throat.
Opening her eyes, she smiled. “That had to be the most beautiful thing I’ve ever felt.”
“It will get even better, darlin’. I promise.”
“I know.” She cupped the back of his neck and drew his face closer for a kiss. “I want to feel you inside me, Abe. I want to know what it’s like.”
Reaching for his trousers, he tugged something out of his pocket. She watched as he opened the condom and rolled it on.
With a raised eyebrow she asked, “You always come prepared or were you planning this after all?”
“I won’t lie. I was hoping for it.”
“Well, you are honest.” She lay on her back and stared at the ceiling.
“But I wasn’t hoping just for tonight, Angela.” He turned her face toward him. “I can’t explain how I feel. I’m a man of action. Always have been. I can’t rightly put these emotions I have into words.”
“Try.”
“The other day when you opened the door, I felt like somebody had kicked me in the gut. You grabbed hold of my heart and you’re not letting go. That’s never happened to me before.”
“Me either, but I always hoped it would.” She smiled. “Either I’m the biggest fool in the world or I’m right about you being…”
“Being what?”
“If I say, I’ll probably scare you off.”
Lying beside her, he pressed her body close to his as he stared deeply into her eyes. “You’re never scaring me off, understand? I’ll go if you ask me to, but other than that you’re not getting rid of me any time soon. How do you feel about a broken-down Marine set on making you his woman?”
His woman!
“Abe, we’re moving too fast, aren’t we?”
“Way too fast.” He smiled, nuzzling her neck.
“You know, I don’t care. This is the first time in my life I’ve ever
