Luci's Lullaby Read online

  “Sorry. How in the hell does that happen?”

  She shakes her head as she presses her finger to her lips. “No clue.”

  “You maybe…” she bites her lip, “...want to come in for a drink?” Why am I acting like a teenage boy?

  She releases her lip. “I’m not another notch, Alden.”

  “I’ve never thought otherwise.” I grab the door handle, pulling on it. “Well, then, until later.”

  “Don’t forget your guitar.” She throws her thumb over her shoulder.

  I step out, reaching in the back to get the case out. It gets stuck on the seatbelt. “Fuck.”

  “What?” She turns, getting up on her knees. “Let me get that.”

  She lays over the driver seat, reaching into the back. Her ass is in my face, giving me an incredible view. She tugs a few times until it finally breaks free. The force throws her into me, and I wrap my arm around her, holding her up.

  “Hey, be careful there.”

  Our mouths our inches apart. I can feel her warm breath on my face. Her lips are pink and full. Everything in me is screaming to kiss her. For the first time in my life, I need to work up the courage as my stomach flips.

  Before I can decide to seal it, she wraps her hand around the back of my head and pulls me to her. Our lips meet in a frenzied desire, giving and taking from each other.

  I run the tip of my tongue along her bottom lip, and she opens her mouth for me. Our tongues tangle just as our words have—in a perfect dance of fire and ice. My blood heats with every pass of her tongue with mine.

  I tighten my grip when she fists my hair, pressing her mouth against mine harder. I drop my guitar, wrapping both arms around her. Pushing off the ground, I drive my knee into the seat as I get even closer to her.

  Our mouths meld into one as we begin to pant, struggling with breaking our connection or just keep going. Nothing but the sound of our heavy breathing can be heard as desire consumes us.

  The hesitation can be felt between us as she slows the pace, sighing. “We need to…”

  “Go inside, my neighbors are getting a great show.”

  She leans away. “No, I need to go.”

  “Don’t.” She sits back against her door. “Stay a little longer.”

  “I shouldn’t.” She presses her fingers to her mouth.

  “Alright.” I grab my case, taking it out as I go. I lean over with my hand on the door. “Thank you for the ride.”

  She nods. “You’re welcome.”

  I walk slowly toward my door, setting my guitar down and turning when I don’t hear her car start. She crashes into me, her hands in my hair. She smashes her mouth to mine as I grip her hip, holding her closer.

  She pulls away. “I don’t know why I’m doing this. I know who you are and what you’re about, but if I leave, I know I’ll regret it.”

  I fish my keys from my pocket and unlock the door, never letting her go. My mouth is on hers in a flash as I spin her around and back her into my place. I break away, holding up one finger.

  “Just a second, don’t move.” I jerk my case through the door, shutting and locking it quickly. “Now, more of this.”

  I take her mouth in a hurry, afraid she’ll stop and buzzed by the rush as my blood courses through my veins. I swirl my tongue around hers as my fingers dig into her hips, holding her to me.

  She leans back, and I take advantage of her exposed neck. Slowly, I press my lips to her jaw, beneath her ear, and down her neck. Stopping short of her breasts as they heave from her pounding heart.

  “Alden,” she pants, “take me now.”

  I lift my head and lock eyes with her. They burn with a craving I know all too well. I cup her ass, lifting her as I spread her legs. She wraps them around me, locking them.

  I carry her into my room, a king-sized bed sits in the center of it. Placing my knee on the end, I lay her back, hovering over her. Her legs tangle with mine mirroring the war between our mouths.

  “Rae...”

  She places her finger on my lips. “Shhh.”

  Her skirt rides up her thighs, giving me a sweet peep show of her purple-covered pussy. I rock into her, grinding my denim-clad hard-on against her panties. Sliding my hand down her leg, I hook it around her.

  My knees dig into the mattress to get better traction. She gives as good as she gets, meeting my body with hers. Pressing her hands into my back, I mold to her. Our need more apparent than ever.

  She claws at my shirt until she works it over my head. I sit up, curling my finger for her to follow me. She does as I ask and I lean in, rewarding her with a kiss. When I do, I trace the hem of hers, gathering it in my hands.

  I tug at it as she raises her arms and I get it off her. I push her back down, trailing my fingers between her breasts and to the top of her skirt. I yank at her black velvet, sliding it over her hips.

  I move my leg as the material slips over her knees and off her feet. She lays beneath me, her bra matching her panties. I reach up, pulling her hair from the band. She pulls it up the bed above her.

  I run my fingers up her leg, over her thigh, and up her stomach. Her curves enhancing her beauty as her full breasts sway with every small movement. Cupping them, I run my thumb over her pebbled nipples.

  She bucks ever so slightly from the friction. I apply a little more pressure and watch as she squirms. Tracing the pattern, I end up at the front hook, popping it. I watch as she bites her lip, driving me wild.

  Allowing only the tips of my fingers to touch her, I meander up her torso to her breasts. Palming it, I lean in, swirling her nipple with the tip of my tongue. Her sweet moans push me to my limits.

  I release her, working my way down her stomach. I hook my thumbs in the sides of her panties and inch them down her legs. Pulling them from her, I toss them behind me.

  She pushes at my pants with her feet. Sitting up, she unbuttons them and slowly pulls the zipper down. She reaches in, wrapping her hand around my shaft. My heart thunders as she begins to stroke me.

  “Let’s get this done already,” she murmurs before licking my nipple. Her warm breath an intoxicating feeling as her tongue leaves a cool path.

  “I can handle that.” I jerk my pants over my feet and reach over, grabbing a condom from my nightstand. The telltale sound mixes with heavy breathing for the only sounds in the room.

  Her eyes lock with mine as I start rolling it on, and her fingers take control and finish the job. I’ll be damned if that wasn’t sexy as hell. I suck in a deep breath, hoping to steady the nerves that have suddenly invaded my body.

  She lays back, sweeping her hair behind her head once again as I crawl between her thighs. I fist my cock, rubbing the head through her center. She’s hot and wet, helping me to slide in deep.

  She wraps her legs around me with a sweet murmur, “Feels so good.”

  “Hell yeah, you do.” I rock into her, working my knees into the bed.

  Her fingers trail down my back, chills rushing over me. Her hips meet my push as a frenzied race to get closer, sparks us into action. No longer are we miles apart as we become one.

  I slide my arm under her back, picking her up, I sit her on my lap. Her feet rest beside my legs, helping me to lift her as I pump into her. She tangles my hair with her fingers.

  I smash my mouth into hers, taking it as I have her. The bump and grind of our bodies meeting, driving us wild. The tempo picks up with each swirl of our tongues.

  Her gasp alerts me to her orgasm as I find my own. I rest my forehead against hers when her arms hang over my shoulder. We’re both spent, and it was well worth it.

  “I don’t think I can move,” she mumbles.

  I nod, trying to steady my breath. “I feel you.”

  “Yes you did.” She giggles. “Quite well.”

  My body jerks as I laugh, making her clutch me. “What’s wrong?”

  “Umm, I think I need to move.” She wriggles.

  “If it wasn’t for this condom, I’d hold you here.”

/>   Her eyes grow wide. “You wouldn’t?”

  My cock twitches. “Oh yeah, I would.”

  Her mouth forms a perfect O. “Maybe, no.”

  I lay her back, sliding slowly from her. “Don’t move.”

  “Don’t worry, I can’t.” She smirks.

  I ease from the bed, walking to the bathroom; I dispose of the condom and clean up. I worry my lip over my next decision but decide to do it anyway. Grabbing a washcloth, I turn the faucet on and hold the material under it.

  Wringing it out, I dry my hands and grab a towel to head back to her. The light from the bathroom casts a glow on her as she lays in my bed. A tight feeling in my chest makes my heart skip a beat.

  What the hell?

  I hesitate as I take in the sight before me. She’s breathtaking. The curves of her body highlighted by the sheets drives me crazy. I shake my head, hoping to clear it because right now, all I can see is her.

  “Hey,” I pause. “I thought you might want this.” I hold the cloth up.

  Her eyes dart from mine as she reaches for it. “Yeah, thank you.”

  “I can help.”

  “Uh, no. I’ve got it.” She snatches the cloth from me, crawling from the bed.

  I crack my knuckle. “Are you leaving?”

  Her back is toward me as she walks toward the bathroom. “I-I umm, just a second.” She closes the door without looking at me.

  “I didn’t mean to embarrass you.”

  “You didn’t,” she answers from the behind the door. The room grows silent. I hate it.

  I straighten the bed and walk to the kitchen for something to drink. I scan the refrigerator, scratching my head. “Water, wine, and beer.”

  “Sounds like a country song.” I pop my head up to find her standing behind the door.

  “It does.” I chuckle.

  She tiptoes, looking over the door. Pointing, she says, “Water.”

  I grab two, shutting the door to find her in my shirt from tonight. I have to be honest, it happens all the time but the pull in my gut isn’t there because it has happened. It’s the person in it, and that scares me.

  “Here ya go.”

  She takes the bottle from my outreached hand. “Thank you.” She twists the top as I begin to chug mine. “Hope you don’t mind, but I figure I’m not the first to borrow it.” She tugs at my shirt and I choke on my water, spewing it on her.

  “Fuck.” I start rubbing her dry.

  “I’m sorry.” She sets her water down and yanks the shirt over her head. “If you didn’t want me to wear it, you could’ve just said so.” She tosses it in my face.

  “I didn’t…” I catch it just in time to watch that fabulous ass sashaying away. “Where ya goin’?”

  She looks over her shoulder. “Find my clothes.”

  “Why do you want to do that for?” I jog after her.

  “Because I need them.” I turn the corner just as she bends over.

  “Why?” I rub the back of my neck as my cock stirs. It’s truly disturbing me the effect she has on me. I can’t help it, I want her to stay.

  She turns her head toward me. “I don’t plan on being naked outside.”

  “Well then, stay and be naked inside with me.”

  She giggles as she pulls her panties on. “I thought this was a hit and run?”

  “Huh?”

  She spins with her shirt in her hands. “I thought I was supposed to leave after.”

  My stomach turns. “I never said that, did I?”

  “No, but I…” She bites her lip and I think about climbing the walls to get to her.

  I shake my head as I walk over to her. I tug at her shirt until she releases it. “The only butt I want to discuss is yours.”

  “What about it?” She flushes.

  I tuck my fingers into the front of her panties, tugging her to me. Sliding my hands around, I grab her ass with both hands. “It’s a mighty fine ass.”

  “Mine?” She twists as if she’s trying to check it out. “Are you sure?”

  I give it a good squeeze, appreciating it the way it should be. “Damn straight.”

  “Are you asking me to stay?” She quirks her brow, walking back to the bed.

  “Game on, baby.”

  I bite my lip when I hear his footsteps behind me. Picking up my pace, I try to put more space between us. I need time to get the upper hand but before I can get too far away, he catches me.

  Hooking me with his arm, he spins me and pulls me to him. My heart clinches as his lips find mine. His tongue no longer a stranger, but a welcome guest. I knot his hair in my hands as I try to get impossibly closer to him.

  He leans away, dragging in a deep breath. There’s a spark in his eyes, setting a fire in my lower belly. My nipples harden as his chest rubs against them.

  “Yeah, Rae. I’m asking for you to stay.” His voice husky and filled with lust. I could wallow in it.

  “What’cha gonna do for me if I stay?”

  He chuckles, releasing me to stand. “I’ll think of something.” His fingers hook my panties, dragging them down my legs. “Step,” he says as he takes them off me. He turns, pulling open his drawer.

  “Hey, what are you doin’ with those?”

  He shuts it, looking up at me with his eyes ablaze. “You won’t be needing those for a while.”

  “I can leave without them.”

  He pushes me backward, and I fall onto the bed. “Not before I taste you.” He kneels at my feet, placing his hands inside my thighs.

  I hold them together. “Wait. What are you doing?”

  “Open,” he growls, making me shiver. “Open your legs, Rae.”

  I sit up, rubbing my forehead. “It’s just that… I haven’t…” Fuck, this is embarrassing.

  “Good, I can be your first.” His eyes, burning with want, fill me with need.

  I crash back to the bed as his hands push my legs wide. His lips are warm on my inner knee as he inches his way to my pussy. I tremble with anticipation when he’s not driving me wild.

  A nip and a kiss, slowly and ever so tantalizing, he takes his time. I begin to relax and savor everything he’s giving. He leans in, kissing my center sweetly before running his tongue through my core.

  My entire body shudders, and I fist the sheets trying to control my reaction to him. He works me with his tongue like nothing I’ve ever had. He laps at me, swirling his tongue around my clit as he did my nipple. I grab my breasts with the thought of it.

  “Damn, that’s so fucking hot,” he mumbles from between my legs.

  He licks me slowly with passion, making me feel wanton. I’m on the verge of exploding. His fingers dig into my thighs when I start squirming. I reach down grabbing his hair. Without thought, I pull on it.

  “God yes!” I scream as my orgasm rushes through me.

  Alden continues to lick until I go limp. He kisses me, gradually easing his way up my stomach to my breasts. Cupping them, he begins to knead each. Circling my nipples with his thumbs and making them impossibly harder.

  “I love how you react to me,” he groans when I mewl for him.

  “I can’t say I don’t.”

  He searches my eyes making my heart race. “Who are you, Rae?”

  I can’t tell him, not now. I just know if I explain who I am and how I’ve felt about him all these years, it will ruin this. The one thing I’ve dreamed of and wanted all these years.

  “Just another girl, Alden.”

  Something in his eyes flash. “Somehow, I doubt that.”

  Caught in the moment, I imagine being with him. Being his and only his. I wrap my hand around his head, pulling his mouth to mine. I don’t want this to be over, so for now, I’ll just be Rae.

  Putting my legs around him, I encase him and pull him closer. Our bodies slip and slide against each other, quickly changing the tempo. He reaches above my head, pulling another condom from the drawer.

  “Get a couple more out, we’re gonna need them,” I whisper in his ear.
<
br />   He stretches, filling his hand and letting them fall to the bed. “I have to be up early.”

  “I suppose we should get started.”

  A smile plays on his lips. “Wanna help?” He holds up the condom between two fingers.

  “Happy to oblige.” I snatch it from him, rolling him over and straddling him.

  His eyes smolder as I rip it open with my teeth. “Seriously, that’s sexy as hell.”

  “So I’ve been told.”

  A line appears between his brows. “Oh, you have?”

  “By you! Geez, it’s not something I do on the daily.”

  He grabs my waist, wriggling under me and causing all sorts of good things to happen to my body. “That’s good to know.”

  “Weirdo.” I take the rubber out and slide it on. “There ya go. What should we do?”

  “I have an idea.” He raises me up, cutting his eyes down. “Grab that.”

  I can’t help but grin. “With pleasure.”

  I fist his cock as he lowers me down. A sweet, aching deep in my core diminishes the burn from the intrusion. He’s sizable and it’s been a while for me, but he has no trouble gliding through my wet center.

  I lay my hands on his chest with a determination—if I’m going to do this, I’m going to fuck him good. I begin to rock my hips. Leaning over, I swirl his nipple with the tip of my tongue.

  Sucking it into my mouth, I give a good tug on it before letting it slip from my teeth. He watches my every move as he meets my grind with a thrust of his own.

  What was once a dance between two people suddenly becomes so much more. I drag my hands down his body, feeling every muscle and nuance. He’s built so well and that face, damn he’s still perfection.

  His hands find mine, lacing them together as I ride him. My head lulls as he fills me completely, and I get lost in the feeling. Our bodies meeting in a rhythm of their own accord.

  I look down to lock eyes with Alden as he gazes at me. Time stands still, allowing me to savor this moment. His hands skim my back and in one fluid move, he flips me over.

  His hands are in my hair as he picks up the pace. He stares into my eyes before taking my mouth. The earth literally shifts, and everything changes as our bodies come together.
