PIPPA

I stare into Timber’s dark eyes and see the desire he had when he saw me in the dress. At the time I hadn't been sure if that’s what I saw but now there’s no doubt. He wants me and I don’t think he’s done with me yet.

His hold tightens and his fingers dig into my soft flesh. This is not one of the many dreams I’ve had about him. He’s really here and he just— My mind blanks for a moment as our eyes stay locked together. I can’t believe what just happened. If it wasn't for his hold on me, I think I would’ve fallen over because my whole body is still reeling from the orgasm.

I place my hands on his broad shoulders, reminding myself this is real. My face warms as the lights illuminate just how completely naked I am.

“Hi,” pops out of my mouth and I want to facepalm myself.

Timber’s lips twitch into a smirk and I bite my lip to keep from smiling. The look on his face is almost as good as the orgasm he rocked me with.

“Hey,” he says and licks his lips.

They’re already slick from me, and my core tightens at how intimate this is. He kissed me there. The man who doesn’t like or want to be around people is closer to me than anyone has ever been before.

“I…” For the first time in my life I don’t know what to say. It wasn't ten minutes ago I was so sad and mad over him and now I’m buzzing with excitement and need. My heart thuds and right now I’m hoping for so much more.

“Don’t tell me to go.” His words come out hoarse and I shake my head. I don’t want him to go anywhere. “I thought I was the one who never talked?”

He rises from his knees and picks me up with him. I wrap my legs around his waist as he carries me from the bathroom. I know I’m getting him soaked but he doesn't seem to care.

“Did you make a joke?” I tease. He lays me down on the bed and my legs and arms drop away as he stands at the side of the bed looking down at me.

“I’m doing a lot of things right now I don’t normally do.” His eyes roam over my naked body appreciatively.

“Don’t stop.” My voice is soft as I lift up on my elbows.

I know I was the one who’d bolted from the room before, but now I’m scared he’s going to do the same. Some things are easier said and done in the dark but now light floods the room. I’m bared before him and I want him to do the same.

“I wasn't planning on it.” He reaches up and behind him to pull off his wet shirt. He tosses it to the ground and goes for his jeans next. I bite my lip as I watch, waiting for him to strip off the rest, but he leaves his boxer briefs on.
