“You, too.” She’s moved back on my legs so she has access to my shirt, clawing at it to get it off me, and I oblige her, pulling it over my head and casting it aside with hers. “Holden.”
With fire in her gorgeous eyes, her fingertips gently trace the tattoos on my right shoulder and down my arm, circling around the pink wild rose there. She licks her lips as my hands roam up her sides and then over to her fucking gorgeous breasts, where I tease her already tight nipples.
“I want to ask you so many questions about these,” she whispers and then gasps and tips her head back when I pinch a little harder.
“You can ask me anything. Later.” I sit up and take her mouth, knowing that I’ll never get enough of her. She’s grinding on me, pushing her breasts against my chest, and I unfasten the elastic on her back, and she lets the bra fall down her arms. Without missing a beat, my mouth fastens onto one hard nub, making her arch her back as she holds on to my shoulders. “Baby.”
“God, your mouth,” she groans. “How did I live without your mouth on me?”
“We have to move.”
“Not if it means you stop doing that.”
I grin against her skin, fucking loving everything about her, and rake my teeth over her sensitive flesh, satisfied when she breaks out into goose bumps.
“I need to lay you out and see every glorious inch of you, baby girl. Goddamn it, I’m going to fucking worship you.”
“Well, when you put it like that.”
I stand with her still in my arms and walk down the short hallway to our bedroom, lay her on the bed, and unfasten her jeans. She lifts her hips, making it easier for me to slide them down her long, lean legs, and then she’s lying here in nothing but some little blue panties.
There’s a wet spot covering her pussy, and it makes me growl.
“Your turn,” she murmurs, but I ignore her as I crawl onto the bed and take her thighs in my hands, spread her wide, and kiss her over that blue fabric, inhaling her. Millie’s hands fist in the bedding as her whole body engages. “Oh, dear God.”
“Jesus, look how wet you are. You’re fucking perfect.” I grin up at her as I kiss my way north. Yes, I want to devour her pussy, but it’s going to have to wait while I explore her.
Her stomach ripples under my lips, and I dip my nose into her navel.
So much about her is the same as eight years ago, but so much is different. She’s grown up, become even more of a woman, and I can’t fucking get enough of her.
“Why are you so good at that?” she murmurs. “Don’t answer that.”
I laugh and roll her nipple under my fingers as I kiss the other one. “We have to set some ground rules, Rosie.”
“No more rules.” She rolls her head back and forth, her eyebrows pulled together in a frown. “I’m so over the rules. We’re already breaking the biggest one anyway.”
“These are important.” I kiss up her sternum and over her collarbone, and I absolutely fucking love the way her hips are moving under me, as if she’s searching for my cock.
And she’ll get it.
“Number one.” I nibble at the side of her lips. “If at any time you want me to stop, or you aren’t comfortable, you say so.”
“Not shy, remember?”
I grin against her jawline. “Good. Number two.” My hand grazes up her side, and my girl purrs.
Fucking purrs.
“There is nothing you can say or do while we’re together that could ever turn me off or change the way I feel. You don’t hold back, Millie. Do you understand me?”
“Hmm.”
I take her jaw in my hands and make her look me in the eye.
“Tell me you understand.”
“You got way bossier.” I simply raise an eyebrow, and she grins. “No holding back. Got it. When are you going to take off your pants?”
“In a minute.” She’ll have questions, and this will stall, and I’m not ready for that. I’m going to make her come at least once before she sees the metal in my cock. “Number three.”
“Holden?”
“Just one more, baby girl. One more.” My hand drifts up her belly, between her breasts, and holds on to her throat, just under the jaw, the way I’ve always done. “As soon as we do this, you’re mine. There’s no going back from this. I’m going to erase the memory of anyone who has been here since me, and there will be no one after.”
That has her golden eyes, so full of green now, widening.
“Holden.” It’s a whisper.
“Tell me you understand what I just said. I need the words.”
She holds on to my wrist but doesn’t pull me away. She licks her lips, lets her gaze fall to my mouth, and then flicks it back to my eyes. She suddenly looks nervous.
