I know who he is but he needs to growl and howl for a little while longer. I simply whirl my tongue around his cockhead, drawing him further and further in.
“Stop.” He growls the word and tugs on my hair. “If you don’t stop, I’m going to come.”
“That is the point,” I say, pressing kisses on his skin.
“I want to be inside you,” he admits. “I want to see your pretty face and know you’re with me.”
There he is. My Reid is still here. He’s simply at war with the one Britta created. I plan to win. I get to my feet as he finds the condom in his wallet and rolls it on. His hands come out, waiting to guide me down. I straddle him and feel his cock against me, heat sparking through my system. I’ve never wanted anyone the way I want him. I suppose that’s why I’ve been so afraid of him. I’m diving into the deepest pool, but I can’t back out now. I’ll learn to swim.
He sighs as he thrusts up and our bodies fit together like they were made for each other. His hands are on my hips, but he leans forward to kiss me as I start to ride him. Slow at first, and then building heat and friction. We kiss until I can’t stand it a second longer and I give in, pleasure pushing aside all the tension we feel and replacing it with nothing but joy. Reid grips my hips and swings me around so my back is against the couch and he’s on top. He takes over, thrusting in and out. Over and over until I feel it build again and ride the wave one more time. His whole body tightens, and he holds on as his orgasm takes him over the edge.
He falls on top of me, and I hope we’ve survived this storm.
Hours later I realize the sex was kind of the eye of the storm, and we’re definitely still in it.
“You should go home, Harper.”
The words are cold, but I can see his hands shaking slightly. He rolled out of bed after the last time he gave me a mind-blowing orgasm. He went straight to his dresser and pulled on a pair of boxers. I notice he didn’t bother with actual pants. He paces at the end of the bed.
I yawn and turn over. The drama is ongoing, it seems. He has way more energy than I do. I’m all happy and sated and sleepy, but does Reid Dorsey let me rest? Nope. “I think I’d rather stay here.”
He stops and puts his hands on his hips, looking judgmental but also hot. “And I want you to leave.”
“Then you should pick me up and throw me out because it’s the only way I’m leaving this bed.” He isn’t thinking straight. It’s two in the morning, and he’ll get anxious when he realizes I’ll take the subway. Then he’ll hail a cab. Then he’ll worry about me getting into my building. Then he’ll come with me. Trust me. This happened before. It’s best I stay in place. “And I won’t let you dress me, so if you don’t mind chucking a naked chick out of your place, go for it. I bet the security cams will get some footage of that, too, and I’ll have to wake up Ivy. She can be cranky if she doesn’t get eight hours.”
He frowns. “I’m serious. You can’t control me with sex.”
I yawn again and pat the place beside me. It’s a good bed. Very comfy and warm. “I’m not trying to control you, babe. I’m trying to get you back into bed so you can get some sleep. You have a design meeting about the ballroom in the morning, and I’m installing crown molding. Gotta be sharp.”
“I have to go to Europe. I’m going to find a flight tomorrow.”
The thought of him going to see her makes my heart ache, but probably not for the reasons he thinks. “Then you should definitely get some sleep.”
“Are you listening to a word I say?” Reid asks, obviously exasperated.
I wish there was an easier way to do this, but I think Reid needs to understand he can’t move me. “Of course, but you’re not saying anything that makes sense. Hence the need for sleep.”
“Me sleeping with you won’t change the fact that I’m going to Europe to meet with Britta.” His gaze turns steely, and I realize we’ve come to the nasty part of this drama we’re playing out. This is when he makes what he thinks is his big play to save me. “I’ve been lying to you. You were right back in Ralavia. I’m in love with her. When she came to see me that night, we made love and talked about how we could fuck with you. We came up with this whole plan to draw you in and make you believe. I’m sorry. This is just what we do. We play games. It’s exciting.”
