swipe of his tongue
over her skin.
As though sensing her growing weakness, Xbal slid his hands
beneath the leather dress and cupped her bottom.
“By the Heavens, I love your ass.” His fingers kneading and
palms pressing her cheeks apart made Cassie’s toes curl in her boots. “So plump
and soft, just made to be adored. I can’t wait to give it the attention it
deserves.”
By Sol , she was going to die, any minute now, if he
kept saying things like that to her. How easy it was to imagine that talented
tongue of his rimming her, getting her ready for his cock. Or being fucked from
behind, the roughness of his thrusts into her pussy punctuated by equally hard
slaps on her tender flesh.
Then the images fled like pixie dust in the wind as Xbal
traced a hot, wet arc from her stomach, across her hipbone to her upper thigh,
stopping just on the crease where hip and leg met. Just one small kiss away
from her mound. But instead of going closer, giving her what she craved, Xbal
leaned back.
“I want to look at you.” His fingers were at the elastic top
of her panties and already pulling them down as he spoke. “Let me see your
sweet pussy, baby. I’ve imagined doing that for so long. Don’t deny me the
chance.”
He was pleading, as though she could or would deny him
anything now. As though the thought of his voracious gaze trained on her cunt
didn’t take her straight to the quivering edge of orgasm.
Through the fog of her desire she felt her underwear catch
on the tops of her boots, heard him say something she didn’t need to understand
to know was a profanity. Getting the minute triangle of spidersilk down to her
ankles, he lifted her left foot and tugged the thong free. Then he raised that
foot higher, until the sole was resting on his shoulder, and pushed her knee
out, holding it there as his other hand returned to cup her ass. There was a
rush of cool air against the heated flesh between her thighs and Cassie
realized she was spread open to his gaze, just as he’d wanted.
“Ah, fuck…” Xbal’s voice trailed away into a sound redolent
with such hunger it caused her cunt to spasm with pleasure. “By the Heavens, you’re
so beautiful, all wet and flushed, your clit so hard it wouldn’t take more than
a touch to make you come.”
Yes. That was all it would take, all she needed. She tilted
her hips closer to him, widening her legs as much as she could, hoping he’d
give it to her—give her that one kiss, the one flick of his tongue she craved.
“Oh, sweetheart. I wish you could see yourself like this,
wish you could feel how much harder I get when I look at you, when your scent
fills my head, makes my mouth water.”
The hand on her knee slid up along the inside of her thigh
and the leg she was standing on turned to water. It was only Xbal’s strength
holding her aloft now, only the hand on her ass stopping her from melting to
the floor. With his palm on her thigh, he delicately thumbed her outer labia
farther open and groaned at the expanded view.
“Look at that,” he crooned, the words a low, growled
whisper. “Just look at that.”
He wasn’t talking to her, but suddenly she wanted to see if
his face reflected the appreciation and longing echoing in his voice. She
needed to know if he truly wanted her that way—with the all-encompassing
passion she heard in his words. Forcing her eyelids open, Cassie looked down to
where Xbal knelt at her feet.
She hardly recognized him.
Gone was the cool, suave man she’d come to know. In his
place was a disheveled, flushed, beautiful god—hair in disarray, shirt torn
open, a light slick of perspiration glistening on his skin. Taut flesh
highlighted every plane and hollow of his face, desire revealing the untamed
side of his character he usually kept so carefully hidden. Just the sight of
him adoring her body, touching her so gently, made her soul blossom and her
arousal take on a sharper, yet also tenderer edge.
Xbal lifted his gaze to her face and
