Her hands slip down my neck and chest, and when she takes hold of my shirt, and she begins to lift it, I break the kiss and search her face to make sure this is what she wants.
Seeing the love shining in her eyes steals my breath, and I help her pull the shirt over my head.
I watch as she lowers her eyes to my chest, and then she moves her hand closer, and her fingertips brush over my left shoulder, and down to my abs. She traces the hard lines, and her smile softens with adoration.
I lift my hands to her neck and leaning down, I kiss her tenderly. When her fingers glide over my side, and she takes hold of the sweatpants, I begin to kiss her with more urgency.
Damn, where did I put the condoms?
I pull back so suddenly, Lee loses her balance and stumbling backward, she sits down on the bed.
“Sorry,” I chuckle. “I just need to check something quickly.” I dart to my bag, and luckily I find them in the first pocket I look in. I walk to the nightstand and set them down before I turn back to Lee, and placing my hands on either side of her on the bed, I lean over her, fusing our mouths together again.
When she begins to rise, I move an arm around her and pull her the rest of the way, as I straighten up. Our tongues taste and explore each other until we’re gasping for air.
I raise my other hand to her neck and feel the softness of her skin as I trail it down. I begin to push the fabric back, and when it exposes her bare shoulder, I break the kiss and glance down. “You’re not wearing anything under the robe?”
With the shake of her head, she reaches for the fabric, and my heartbeat speeds up a hell of a lot when she pulls the bathrobe open.
The sight of her naked body stuns me into a moment of pure awe. Slowly I reach for the fabric, and I push it off, wanting to see all of her. As the bathrobe pools at her feet, I brush my hand down from her shoulder until my fingertips graze the hardening bud of her breast.
There’s so much wonder building in my chest as I let my hand curve around her breast, and brushing my thumb over her nipple, I feel it harden even more from my touch.
Moving my other hand behind her neck, I step closer until I feel her breasts press against my skin, and I glide my hand from her breast, down her side, and reaching the curve of her hip, my breath explodes over my lips as it speeds up from the exhilaration building inside of me.
My fingertips begin to tingle with anticipation, and it spreads through my body like a wildfire as I trail them down between her legs. Her lips part, and her breath hitches when the pad of my middle finger lightly makes contact with her clit.
Lee’s cheeks flush, and goosebumps spread out over her skin, and I’m captivated by her reaction to my touch.
Slowly, I guide my finger to her opening, and as I start to push inside of her, she tilts her face up to mine. Her eyes shine with emotion as she silently expresses the significance of this moment to me.
I’m the first man to touch her, and knowing it fills me with so much gratitude.
This incredible woman belongs only to me.Chapter 23LeeThe way Lake looks at me… I see the colors of a hundred sunrises in his eyes – a promise of the years to come.
His touch makes me feel cherished, and it fills me with the reassurance that I’m the most important person to him.
Lake loves me.
Tears born from his pure and profound love for me fill my eyes.
As he pushes his finger inside me, my breath catches in my throat from the immense wave of sensations the touch sends through my body. It feels like I’m standing at a threshold, and one more touch from Lake will give birth to a new me – my days of being a girl behind me, and the years of being a woman ahead of me.
Lake pulls his hand away from between my legs and lifting me up against him, he takes a step forward, and then he carefully lays me down in the middle of the bed.
I’m able to see the power ripple beneath his skin as he moves, and it makes me feel so unbelievably safe.
Lakes eyes meet mine, and a smile slowly forms around his face as he moves his hand back to between my legs, and this time he cups me. Pushing his finger back inside me, he goes deeper as his palm presses down on me.
