tongue over that soft skin to taste her as she shivered. He was so hard he could barely stand it. He wanted her so badly, wanted to plunge deep into her and feel that scalding heat envelop him.
He ached. But that longing, that aching yearning he’d heard in her voice, that hidden sorrow he’d seen in her eyes called to him. He would give her more in answer to that. He owed her that much. He owed her his life. Without her, he’d have been as dead as Bill.
He owed her for that as well.
This was certainly no sacrifice.
God, she was beautiful and he wanted her intensely, more so as he touched her. She responded with soft cries as she trembled, her hips pumping against him.
He stroked his finger deep into the hot dampness of her, curled it. Her tightness gathered around the motion of his hand and he took her cry of surprise into his mouth. That gasp sent another bolt of heated want through him. The feel of his mouth on hers, of his tongue sliding between her lips, had been electric. The sensation of her body closing around his fingers greedily was incredible.
A pulsing warmth spread from between Ariel’s legs as she opened to him.
Then there was only his tongue invading her, the metallic taste of him as he penetrated her mouth, as it tangled around her own. Warmth became heat as his fingers moved inside her and pleasure shot through her.
She needed, wanted more. To touch him, to feel him, her hands splayed across the hard muscles beneath his t-shirt. She wanted to see him, to touch his skin. She curled her fingers into his t-shirt, tugged it free of his jeans.
In one swift movement, feeling the pull, Matt stripped his t-shirt and jeans off, kicking them away, needing to feel her skin against his as badly as she seemed to need him.
Then he reclaimed her mouth and body.
She welcomed him back, one hand curling into his hair, while the other caressed his chest before sliding it around to glide up his back.
Ariel drew him against her, feeling solid rippling muscle shift smoothly beneath her hands before she sent them racing over his chest, his back.
There had been only that moment for her to see all of him but what she’d seen had been impressive. He was incredible.
She pushed away the brief stab of guilt.
Broad, smooth muscles spanned his chest, with tight, nicely developed abs below. Strong muscles across the shoulders bunched as her fingers stroked. His skin was smooth and intensely warm as her fingers glided across the curves and contours of his chest and shoulders, over the hard muscles of his abdomen. She relished the feel of him beneath her hands, the pure tactile sense of him as his mouth blazed a hot trail down the side of her throat. She was blind to anything but his mouth and hands on her, to the fingers sliding up inside her and the rush of glorious delight expanding within her.
His sex was rampant, erect. To touch him...to touch that long shaft… Ariel felt that hardness hot against her hip, the long heavy length of it pressed tightly against her as his mouth moved down her throat. Her fingers yearned to touch him. She reached for him, her fingers closing around velvety skin drawn tight over rigid muscle. He pulsed against her palm.
Matt groaned at her touch, raising himself up on one elbow long enough to see her eyes widen and darken. The feel of her hand around him was nearly more than he could stand.
Electric shivers ran through Ariel at the feel of him twitching against her palm. The long muscles of his back flexed as she slid her other hand up the taut muscles into the crisp hair at the nape of his neck.
His mouth closed over her breast, drew the nipple in and she gasped, tears springing to her eyes as her breath caught and her hand tightened around him. She buried her fingers in his soft, thick golden hair, drew his mouth tight against her.
Nibbling, licking, his tongue swirled over the tip of her breast until it was swollen and aching. She arched her back as another moan whispered out of
