Landon offered me his arm when we rose to leave, and I gladly took it. I was wearing sky-high stilettos. The shoes were new and I hadn’t had time to break them in, so the balls of my feet were hurting.
As we passed the row of tables, I became aware of women eye-fucking him. A lot of women.
“This is the last time you’re going out with me wearing cuff links. Every woman in there wants to bang you,” I whispered when we were alone in the corridor leading to the lobby.
“Bang me?” He laughed. Oh, this amuses him, huh? “You’re a little buzzed from that wine.”
“Maybe. But I know what I saw. Next time we’re going out, you’re wearing some ugly sweater. A pap
er bag over your head would help too.”
“Possessive much?”
I sucked in a breath. “I’m getting ahead of myself, sorry. I have no business being possessive.”
Landon came to a halt, turning to me. He kissed me so hard, it made my mind spin. “Yes, you do. Sweetheart, the thought of you with another man drives me crazy.” His eyes glinted as he ran his thumb over my lips, delicious possessiveness written all over him. “I like seeing you all worked up, but you don’t have to worry about anything. You’re all I want, Maddie.” He kissed the corner of my mouth, whispering, “Let’s go home so I can show you how much.”
I’d never prayed for zero traffic more than now.
When we stepped inside my bungalow, Landon kissed me hard and walked me backward to my bedroom, until the backs of my calves hit the bed. He lowered me on it, breaking our connection. He switched on the light, remaining near the switch.
“Take off your clothes for me, Maddie.”
I toed off my shoes and then climbed on the bed. I lifted the hem of my top just a little, until my belly button was visible. Landon fixed me with his gaze, as if daring me to continue. I lifted it a few inches more, as slowly as I could. He released a sharp exhale, and my hands started to shake with anticipation. Watching him watch me was a damn turn-on. I lifted it another inch, and then Landon took off his own clothes. When he was completely naked, he climbed onto the bed in front of me. He cuffed my ankles with his hands, still watching me. When I pulled off my shirt, he bit his lip. I reached under my pillow and retrieved the condom I’d hidden there... just in case.
“Unclasp your bra.” Although his voice was a whisper, it still sounded like a command. I did as he said, and my breasts spilled free in front of him. Releasing one of my ankles, he reached out one arm, undid the zipper and button of my skirt, then pulled it down my legs, throwing it behind him. I felt exposed, wearing nothing but a thong. He was watching me with a lustful gaze, his eyes darting from my neck to my breasts to the triangle between my legs, then back up.
He moved over me, capturing my mouth. I sighed against his lips, my hips bucking off the bed when he cupped one breast, twisting the nipple slightly. I instinctively tried to push my thighs together. Since he was sitting right between my thighs, I merely squeezed him good. He groaned, pulling back, looking down between us. Lowering one hand, he placed his thumb right at my entrance, over the panties. A shiver of anticipation ran through my body. He dragged his thumb all the way up to my clit.
“Landon! Oh—”
He repeated the motion. I parted my thighs, giving him more access. He settled between them, lowering his head. Through a haze of lust, I felt him slide two fingers along the rim of my panties, right where my thigh met my center. I fisted the sheet when he hooked the fingers in the fabric, pushing it to one side. And then his hot mouth was on my slick flesh, and it felt so impossibly good, so impossibly intense, that I cried out shamelessly. Pushing my head up, I saw he’d lowered an arm under him. His shoulder was moving—he was touching himself. While his mouth was on me, his hand was on his erection. The sight awoke something deep inside me. Warmth billowed under my skin.
Unexpectedly, he took the thumb away from my clit, sliding his hand under my ass, lifting it up the mattress. I dug my heels in the bed, my tummy contracting as I braced myself. He sucked my clit into his mouth.
“Aaaaaah!”
My glutes stiffened, my thighs burned. My center was on fire. My entire body shook. It was as if thin, invisible threads connected my clit to every cell in my body. I thrashed and whimpered, needing my release. The tension inside me kept mounting.
The next few seconds were a little fuzzy. Landon moved, pulling away from me just as I was on the cusp. I heard him rip the package of the condom, and then he moved over me, sliding inside me as I came.
Pleasure of such intensity ripped through me that it knocked the breath out of my lungs. My inner muscles spasmed and clenched along his length. My orgasm intensified. Pleasure coursed through my entire body, making my toes curl and my fingers stretch out, almost in a spasm.
“You feel so good, Maddie. So good.” His voice was an unsteady whisper, and as I came down from cloud nine, I noticed his arms were shaking slightly. He’d braced them on either side of me. Kissing my neck, he slid in and out of me. It was impossible, but I felt that with every stroke he filled me more, gave me more of himself.
“Lift your legs, wrap them around me,” he said.
Blindly I hooked a leg around him, then the other, not understanding where he was going with this... until I did. As I pressed my heels on the back of his thighs, just under his ass, the angle between us changed, and he was rubbing a spot inside me he hadn’t touched before. I didn’t even know pleasure so intense was possible. I was putty in his hands, his body pushing mine closer to the edge with every thrust. My body strummed with tension, muscles clenching. Landon kissed me, interlacing his fingers with mine.
The next moment, my senses were overwhelmed as my entire body coiled with the orgasm. Through my own cries of pleasure, I heard Landon’s and knew he was right there with me.
Chapter Nineteen
Landon
The streets were crowded on the drive to Val’s house the next morning, even though it was early. The city had begun to wake up, but we made it back with enough time to spare. Maddie’s crew hadn’t even arrived.
“You know what? I’ll bake a carrot cake for Val as a welcome home gift,” Maddie said as we walked up the front porch.
