Her lips grazed his, then she kissed him softly.
Nick vowed to find other ways to make her happy.
Kalilah ended the kiss when she felt Nick’s thumbs hook inside the waistband of her shorts.
“What are you doing?”
Nick’s determined gaze skimmed over her face; his gray eyes were dark and serious.
“You know there are other ways I can please you…”
Kalilah’s heart was thumping in her chest. He always had her on the edge of insanity even when he wasn’t around.
Was he suggesting…?
Nick leaned in before she could finish her thought. He kissed the spot under her ear and whispered.
“I can kiss it and make it all better.”
Heat flushed her body and her legs felt weak. She was trying to think, but he was nibbling on her ear lobe.
“What do you know about such an act?” Kalilah asked in a high-pitched voice she didn’t recognize.
Nick laughed. The rumbling of his chest caused a wonderful friction against her straining nipples. She bit her lip to keep from moaning. He cupped her face, forcing her to look him in the eyes.
“Baby, I’m a virgin, not a saint.”
Kalilah wiggled out of his reach. He’s becoming really good at unnerving her.
“Uh…not tonight. I need to get some rest.” Kalilah was too aroused to be tired, but she wasn’t sure if she wanted to go there with him just yet. He seemed confident. It didn’t mean that he wouldn’t leave her more aroused and disappointed. She would leave well enough alone.
Nick shrugged. She knew he could tell she was skeptical of his skills.
“Well, if you change your mind, you know where to find me.”
He was approaching her again, and it took everything in her power to not take a step backwards.
He was more confident, and that made him sexier and almost dangerous to her. His stood taller with his shoulders back, made more eye contact, his face was more defined and chiseled, and his clothes fit differently. Kalilah could feel their roles begin to shift. He was slowly becoming the aggressor. It was both thrilling and terrifying. Especially since she’d spent the past two weeks trying to talk herself out of catching feelings for him. His silky voice shook her out of her thoughts.
“Just one more thing.”
“Yes?” she squeaked. She shook her head to regain control. She tried again in a normal voice. “What is it?”
Nick smirked at her – it wasn’t his usual good natured and friendly smirk. This one was almost predatory. He pulled her close; she was surrounded by his heat and wonderful scent. She could feel his hardness pressing against her belly. Her whole body throbbed.
“I wanted to amend my request about you taking my virginity.” All she could do was nod. “I was thinking about how I wanted to lose it. First, I have a question.” Kalilah fought the urge to suck his thumb into her mouth when he rubbed her bottom lip. “Are you on birth control?”
Kalilah drew her eyebrows together. She didn’t know where he was going with his line of questioning.
“Yeah. Why?”
Nick nodded. “I have a request. When the time comes, I want all of you. Skin to skin, nothing between us. Will you let me feel all of you?”
Kalilah was going to melt. Nick was trying to give her a heart attack. He wanted to lose his virginity bare, without a condom. Kalilah only had two previous partners, and both of those were serious relationships. Even then, she’d never had sex without a condom. She heard it felt wonderful, but she figured she would find out when she got married. Now the guy she wanted more than any other guy ever was asking her for such a favor.
His gray eyes were studying her intently, trying to determine her mood. Her oversexed body screamed “Yes. Now!” but she tried to silence the traitor. This was a serious decision. “He is the safest option...” Her body pointed out. Nick was nibbling on her neck again, making it hard to focus. She was so horny she was about to promise him her firstborn. Enough was enough; she needed to regain control.
“Get out,” she whispered. Nick looked at her surprised and she pushed him toward the door. “Out. Out. Out!”
