Everyone started to leave, and I saw Ben in conversation with one of the other groomsmen as they headed toward the exit, but he glanced back over his shoulder at me at the last second. I could see the erotic promise in his eyes and knew he’d be waiting for me in his room. But I couldn’t leave until I made sure that Faith was okay. She hung up the phone as I reached her side.
“Is everything okay?” I asked, concern in my voice.
“No,” she said, shaking her head and letting out a frustrated sigh. “That was the woman who is making our wedding cake. She was supposed to deliver the completed cake tomorrow, but she’s had some kind of family emergency come up and she’s leaving town first thing in the morning.”
“Oh, no. What are you going to do about a cake?”
“It’s ready, but someone will have to go get it tonight.”
“I’ll do it,” I automatically volunteered.
“You don’t have to do that. She lives on the other side of the island. It’s a forty-five-minute drive.” Faith shook her head. “I’ll just do it.”
There was no way I was letting her stress out over the cake. “No. You’re getting married tomorrow. You need to rest and pamper yourself. I’ll get the cake, just send me the address and give me the keys to your rental car.”
“Are you sure?” She looked half guilty, half relieved.
“Absolutely.” I grinned. “The way I look at it, this is just part of being the maid of honor. I can pick up the cake. I don’t want you to have to worry about a thing if you don’t have to.”
Faith’s face lit up in a bright smile right before she pulled me into a hug. “You’re the best. I can’t thank you enough.”
I left the restaurant five minutes later, following the GPS to retrieve the cake. Hopefully, everything would go smoothly from here on out.
CHAPTER12
Ben
It had been two hours since I left the restaurant, and Tatum had yet to show up in my hotel room. I was laying naked on the bed, the sheets and blankets kicked off as I waited for her with just a single lamp on dim in the corner of the room.
My erection was throbbing as I waited for her, and I was getting impatient. Every time I heard a sound out in the hallway, I lifted my head and waited for my door to open, but it never did. I was starting to think she might not be coming.
Finally, I lost all patience, my mind consumed with thoughts of Tatum’s soft curves and warm pussy. My hand grasped my erection as I closed my eyes and pumped up and down, remembering the sound of her breathy moans when she came and the way her face twisted in pleasure.
The images in my mind made my need surge, and my breathing grew erratic. I could feel myself barreling closer and closer to a climax, but it remained just out of reach. This wasn’t enough—my need for Tatum couldn’t be fully satisfied by my hand.
“Tatum…” I moaned her name, my voice full of desperate longing.
I didn’t even hear the door unlock over the sound of my own soft groan. It was the click of the door shutting that made my eyes snap open. I lifted my head and met Tatum’s wide eyes, my hand still fisted around my engorged cock. Her lips were parted, and she was staring at me with unbridled passion.
I opened my mouth to speak, but before I could say a word, she was moving toward me. She crawled onto the bed and pressed her lips to mine. Fire raced through my veins, and I licked my way into her mouth. Then, she shocked me by pushing my hand away and wrapping her own soft, slender fingers around my dick. My hips undulated as she stroked me slowly, her thumb gliding over the pre-come at the tip and making an electric pleasure shoot straight up my shaft. Tatum pulled back from our kiss and met my eyes.
“Is this big, hard cock all for me?” she asked breathlessly.
“Oh, yeah,” I growled deeply. “This is what you do to me, baby. You drive me crazy with how much I want you.”
She started to move her hand faster, while the other one went to the front of her blue dress, which was held together with little white buttons she managed to unfasten with her free hand. Her bra underneath was pretty white lace that gave her an almost innocent appearance that clashed with the lust and need burning in her eyes.
“Fuuuck,” I groaned as my head tipped back into the pillow.
The muscles in my neck strained, and I could feel myself getting closer to the orgasm I was heading toward when she arrived. But I didn’t want to spill my seed on my stomach. I needed to be inside of her. As deep as I could get.
“Get your panties off,” I demanded gruffly.
Standing, she kept her dress on as she shimmied out of her underwear. I grabbed a condom from the nightstand and rolled it on. I stayed on my back as she returned to the bed. Seizing her by the hips, I guided her until she was straddling me. My cock was hard and thick between us, and I could feel her wet heat gliding against the underside as she settled into place.
Her hair fell in wild waves around her face and down her chest, and her eyes were hooded with desire as she looked down at me. She was fucking gorgeous.
“Put my cock inside you and ride me,” I commanded.
