Excerpt 1

 

I can’t take my lips off her. I need her so much right now. I’m starving for her lips. I can’t catch my breath, but I can’t stop either. I need her to feel how much I love her, need her to know how much I need her and that everything I said was a fucking lie. It was all the fear of not being able to live up to her expectations, the horror of disappointing her. I pushed her away instead of talking to her. If only I’d told her before why I was doing this, to help her mom out, then maybe this would’ve never happened.

But fuck, I am happy she’s here and that she’s all right. She’s here in my arms and I’m not letting her go. Never again.

I’m such a fucking mess, and still she loves me. I have no fucking clue why, but that’s why I love her. She loves me completely, unconditionally, so much that she can’t stand the thought of me even having the slightest scratch on me. I know I’m a bastard for earning money with fighting, but it’s the only thing I can do, and I’ll make sure I’ll be damn good at it. If she can’t see me get hurt, then I won’t let myself get hurt. I’ll make sure it never happens. I’ll train and fight until I can knockout everyone in my path with her watching me, smiling, proud.

I want to be her winner.

Smelling her, I take in her scent in with eagerness, wanting her so close, holding her isn’t even enough anymore. My fingers slide down her neck to her spine and down to her waist as I turn her around, still kissing her. I’m slowly taking her back to the car, not taking my lips off her. Entangling her fingers through my hair, she lets me push her backward until we reach the hood of the car. I’ve not been the best at finding directions when I have my fucking eyes closed. Kissing her is more important than seeing where I’m going.

She bumps against the hood, and I put my arms around her, making sure she can’t slip away. I’m not letting her out of my sight. Not anymore. Her plump, pink lips are so luscious … so soothing … so volatile for me. They turn me into something I shouldn’t be right now, but I can’t help myself.

Planting my hands on the hood, I trap her inside my arms and ravish her mouth. I can’t get enough of her, can’t get enough of her sweetness, her passion, her spark, her flame. I need her love right now.

“God … I want you so much right now, I can’t stop,” I murmur against her mouth, nipping at her lips, catching them with my teeth.

“I want you too. Don’t stop,” she whispers, and then she drags me closer by my shirt.

“Hmm …” I moan into her mouth, but then take my lips off her again. If I don’t stop now, I’ll turn into that beast again. I know, because I’ve been there before. She does that to me. Especially now, because I haven’t seen her for a while, and now that I’ve finally got my hands on her I’m not sure I can hold back. I don’t even want to, but I’m forcing myself to stop. It’s not right to take it further now. Not after what we just went through.

“We’re soaked,” I say.

“Yeah …” The way she says it sends shivers down my spine. It’s like she’s saying she’s ‘wet’ in a whole different way. Exhilarating.

“No, I mean, we should get back to the car.”

She shakes her head, pulling me in for another kiss, but I barely escape.

“I can’t control myself,” I say.

“You don’t need to.” She leans forward and pulls down my shirt, exposing my collarbone. When she starts pecking my skin, I’m done for.

Groaning, I say, “You don’t know what you’re in for.”

“Yes, I do. We’ve had sex before.”

“Not on a fucking car, on a road, in the rain.”

“I don’t care,” she whispers, wrapping her arms around my waist and pulling me closer. My cock springs alive from her tug. She’s never been this needy. This willing. It’s like she wants me to fuck her.

“I need to feel your lips on me. I need you. I need you everywhere. Inside me,” she whispers close to my ear. Fuck. She’s undoing me with her words. Now I’m hard as fuck.

It feels so fucking wrong after a fight, but so very tempting at the same time. My desire to take her has been multiplied by ten since we argued, as if my inner caveman knows that in order to fix love you need to fill each other up with love. Or in other words, fill her up to the brim.

My cock is throbbing in my pants at the thought of having her right now. I can’t think of anything else; it’s like my mind is only focused on one thing now, which is claiming her.

Ah, screw my conscious. “Fuck it …” I murmur, and then I dive into the little nook between her neck and shoulder and kiss her until my lips are raw and swollen.

I push her up against the car, and the lift her up, setting her down on the car. Parting her legs, I step closer and suck the beads of water off her skin. With my tongue I slip down her neck, licking up all the raindrops until I reach her tits. Her hands drop back onto the hood when I grasp both her perky tits in my hands and kiss the swell, going from one to the other.

“God, you’ve never tasted this good before.”

She giggles, which only gives me more incentive to seize her body and make it mine.

My fingers travel down her stomach while I keep my lips on her collarbone, teasing her as I slide lower and lower, avoiding her pleasure spot. I know she wants it, but I want her to savor that feeling for a while. I want her to realize what she’d be missing if I wasn’t there to please her anymore. And I want to enjoy myself while doing it.

I curl my fingers around her shirt and rip it over her head, surprising her. “You scared someone’s gonna find us here?” I tease, throwing the shirt on the hood of the car.

She squints, a smirk appearing on her face. “No.”

I purse my lips and raise an eyebrow. “Not even a little bit?”

Little moans escape her mouth as I massage her tits. She can’t speak, but shakes her head instead.

Hmm … I wonder how far she’ll go. I want to know if I can push her boundaries. It’s too exciting not to try. So I slide my fingers down her shoulder, pushing her bra down, and then in one surprise move I flip her tits out of her holsters.

She gasps as I immediately lock my mouth over her rosy nipples.

“Oh, Hunter …” she moans as I flick my tongue over her hardened peaks.

“What? You backing down yet?” I tease.

“No. Definitely not. Oh my god …” she murmurs.

“Hmm… I like that.” I grin against her skin as I lick her tits until they are nice and perky. My hand drifts down to her pussy and I splay my fingers, grasping her possessively. “Mine.”




Excerpt 2

 

With reddened eyes he stops in front of me, barely inches away from me. His half-mast eyes pierce my soul as he looks down at me. We’re both silently staring at each other, saying with our eyes what we can’t seem to express with words. His fingers draw toward mine like magnets pulled by the inevitable connection between them. We’re on a course toward collision, both fighting the urge to evade and crash. The choice devastating. Impossible.

As his fingers entwine with mine he opens his mouth. “I’m sorry.”

It’s so soft and subtle, and yet so ground-shaking to me.

“I’m so fucking sorry,” he murmurs again. “I should never have said that.”

I sniff, trying to keep the tears at bay, but it’s no use. “I don’t want to move on.”

“You don’t have to.” He inches closer and presses a gentle kiss on my forehead. “Oh god … don’t leave. Please don’t leave me.”

“But you told me to choose …”

“No, you don’t have to,” he says. “It’s my fault. I should’ve told you sooner what I was doing.”

“I tried to call you …” I whisper. “I needed you.”

“I know, I’m sorry,” he says, pulling my hands behind him so he can wrap his arms around me and pull me into his embrace. “I was trying to think of a way to tell you. I was so afraid. Now look what happened.”

I bury my face in his chest, his shirt growing wetter by the second. Neither of us cares about the rain. Right now, all we need is to hold each other.

“I never wanted you to leave. I just felt so powerless. God … I feel so fucking bad about what happened.”

“Me too …” I whisper.

“You have to believe me when I say I’m not just fighting for the sake of it. I’m trying to earn enough money to … to pay for your mother’s medical bills.”

Gasping, I look up into his brilliant grey eyes and blink a few times, unable to comprehend what he just said. “Are you serious?”

“Yes …” He licks the rain off his lips. “I know how much you need your mother … I don’t want you to have to go through that anymore.”

My eyes turn watery again and I burst out in tears.

“Hey, don’t cry,” he says, cupping my chin with his index finger and thumb. “It was supposed to be a good thing. A surprise.”

I chuckle a little. “I can’t believe it. I feel so guilty now.”

“Don’t be. I should’ve explained it sooner. Fighting is the only thing I’m good at, so when me and my brother discovered that this was a gold mine, of course we went for it. Still, I’m a fuck up. All I can do is fuck with people. I can’t do anything worthwhile. Nothing to make you proud … And that’s what made me hesitate to tell you. I want you so badly. For you to look at me and tell the world that I am everything you ever dreamed of, even after all the shit we’ve been through. That I can still rock your world.”

“You still do,” I murmur hugging him tight. “After all of this, I feel incredibly fortunate to have you in my life. Don’t ever say about yourself that you’re not worth it. You’re fighting for my mom. I mean, how big is that? It can’t get any more perfect than that.”
