Teaser
“I love when we go out together and you look at me. I can’t hear anything else, just you. Nothing, nothing else exists when I’m with you, Cole.”
“Anika…” he drew in a quick breath and moved my legs slowly to part them. He took my left ankle and expertly looped what I assumed was a wide ribbon around it, making me wonder how many times he’d done this before and continued to do the same to the right. He took my hands, one at a time and secured them in the same fashion as my ankles. I was spread eagle, completely and totally helpless on the dining room table and I’d never felt sexier in my entire life.
When he spoke, he was near my feet. “You look so fucking beautiful; I’m not even sure where to begin.” But he began at my foot, gliding his fingers along my arch and slowly drawing them up the inside of my leg. I shuddered when he reached the top but didn’t go any closer to spot I desperately wanted him to go, the place I always thought of as “the destination.”
He made a circle around the table, brushing my skin with the tips of his fingers as he went: the underside of each breast, the sensitive skin over my ribs, my neck, my lips. He took his time but left nothing untouched except for my nipples and my sex. I was aching for him with a need that was making me crazy and delighted all at once.
“P-Please, C-Cole…”
“What do you want, baby?”
“You, please, I can’t take it anymore.”
“Do you know why I did this, Anika?” He said as his lips made a slow ascent up my inner thigh.
“N-no.”
“Because…” he lifted my thigh and climbed onto the table above me. His knees resting between my legs, his arms on each side of me as his hair fell from his forehead to my face. I felt the immense heat from him, fiercely wanting him to lower his body to mine for the powerful connection we shared. “You’re completely vulnerable like this, but you trust me. You want me and I used the ribbon to show you, you are my gift. I was nothing before you, not even half a man, you made me whole again, Anika. I will spend the rest of my life making sure I never make you regret it.”
