This wasn’t like us up on the bluff at all where we’d been frenzies and desperately pawing at each other for more.
This is much more slow and sensual, driving my body wild in a different kind of way.
I want him so badly that it’s practically physically painful.
Sensing this, Pitha’s hand pulls away from my face and presses it to my lower back, his tongue parting my lips and entangling itself with mine. I moan into our kiss, wiggling my hips against his.
Suddenly, he shifts us, moving me to lay back onto the couch. I open my eyes as our lips part from each other, his body hovering over mine as he stares down at me.
“I want to touch you, Dana.”
His words have my heart pounding.
“Will you let me?”
I nod quickly. I’ve never wanted anything more in my life.
But I’m worried.
“What about you?” My hand traces along the bandage at his neck. “You need rest.”
He grabs my wrist, turning his head to kiss at my fingers. “I’ll be fine.”
“Pitha…”
“Let me worry about that. I’ve been wanting to do this for a while.”
My cheeks heat up. “You have?”
Sure, I knew that my attraction to him had always been at a low frequency in my head, clouding my thoughts and judgements accordingly—and stupidly. But to hear him say the same thing, that he’s been wantingmefor a while?
It’s unfathomable.
“Of course.” He smiles. “Since the night I met you. Remember, in the tent? I fought everything inside of me not to respond to your advances.”
It seems like a lifetime ago that our first meeting had occurred. But going back to those memories, seeing them for what they were versus running them over in my head with a different kind of lens… it is rather obvious that he was interested in me.
“Oh.”
He laughs softly. “Trust me, it was very hard not to give in.”
“Really?”
He leans in just then, his mouth coming to whisper in my ear. “Would you like me to show you what I would’ve done if I had given in? Let you seduce me into taking you to bed?”
My breath comes out of me in startled gasps. I nod quickly, my veins feeling like the blood in them has been replaced with a wildfire—burning me from the inside out.
Whatever it is that he does to me, the desire he brings out that I’ve never felt before, I want it all. I want to know what it’s like to have him sinking himself inside of me and stroking every inner part of me while he pants my name in my ear.
“Pitha…”
He catches my hand again when I raise it to run over his face. He kisses each and every finger from knuckle to nail all the while staring down at me.
“Will you let me take you, Dana? In the way you should be taken.”
“Yes.” Under him, I move until I can spread my legs apart for him. A sensual offering that I’d never done before. “I want you.”
“Gods, I love you.”
