Chapter 16 – Mia

I gasp as his mouth slams down on mine, then moan as he deepens the kiss. I don’t know what just happened, what just set him off like that, but his eyes, the way he was looking at me... No one has ever looked at me with such pure … need.

And heaven help me, I need him too.

He lifts me until I’m wrapped around him, my fingers in his hair, my legs around his waist. My ribs are burning, protesting the movements, but I simply don’t care. Nothing else matters but being right here, right now. Just like this.

Teeth scrape my bottom lip, and I cling to him even as he lowers me until my sex is pressed into his already hard erection, and moves my center up and down its length. Bringing me more pleasure that I’d ever known was possible with clothes on.

He drops me to the floor and I protest, wanting to climb back up. But he’s sliding my sweater from my shoulders and pushing both straps of my tank down my arms until my breasts are freed and they’re in his hands. “Beautiful,” he murmurs before dropping to his knees and my nipple is in his mouth.

Sucking, pulling, licking, I cry out with the pleasure his mouth creates, my fingers digging into his shoulders to keep from falling. When he bites down, grazing his teeth over my sensitive flesh, the pulse of it moves from nipple to clit and I whimper, yearning for more. For everything.

The hands on my hips move to the waistband of my pants and they’re soon sliding down my legs. Then his face is against my lower stomach, pressing against the plain white cotton of my panties as he wraps his arms around my hips, pulling me closer, holding onto me like a desperate man. When he inhales my scent, I start to cry.

I don’t even know where the tears came from or why they chose that exact moment to appear. It’s just the way he is holding me, pressing against me, as if I am some treasure to be cared for. Adored.

He looks up at me then, and a tear falls off my chin and onto his cheek. And the spell is broken. Just. Like. That.

Standing so quickly he almost causes me to fall backwards, he turns and walks away, his hands digging in his hair. “I’m so sorry,” he grinds out between gritted teeth. “I promised.” He turns back to me and looks haunted. Yes, haunted. And grief stricken. And so sad. So desperately sad.

I step toward him. “It’s okay, I want—”

“It’s not okay, don’t you see that? This is wrong. I can’t … can’t take advantage of you. I can’t…” His jaw tightens and he steps toward me, his hand lifting to cup my cheek. “I can’t…” His hands fall to my tank and he pulls it up to cover my breasts, his fingers tracing my collarbones once he’s finished.

I watch his face, and there’s a war there, but I don’t know who he’s fighting, who the enemy is.
