Haunting Woods (Under Covers Book 2) Read online

  "God, Nick! God!"

  I kept my lips wrapped around her clit while her body shook, riding the wave of her orgasm. When it subsided, I sat up again and turned on the engine. I was pleased to see that she kept her legs spread as I had requested.

  She held on to the remnants of her skirt until we got in the house. From the hallway, I tore off the skirt completely. She was naked from the waist down and again I had to fight the temptation to take her then and there.

  "On your knees," I commanded her. "Open."

  I looked down at the beautiful woman kneeling in front of me. She looked up to me with so much passion, my cock twitched in my pants, eager to dive into her hot little mouth. I forced her jaws wider and I stuffed my cock in her mouth. It hit the back of her throat and she choked. I kept caressing her hair gently, curious what she would do. I could hold her head in place and fuck her mouth, but I wanted to see how much she wanted to please me. Skye never disappointed me. She forced herself to keep the entire length of my cock in her mouth while the muscles in her throat spasmed trying to push away the intrusion. Tears streamed down her cheeks but light shone in her eyes when she looked up at me. Worshipping me. For a moment, I felt I didn't deserve this level of love. Then I realized that I loved her with the same intensity. The thought melted away under the heat of the pleasure. I grabbed her hair and held her head still while my hips rocked back and forth, slowly at first, then faster and faster, until I exploded. I saw fireworks while I kept coming.

  "Oh, fuck, Skye, I love you so much."

  The words didn't come out properly. My throat was dry and my voice was gone. I looked down at her. Skye was resting her forehead on my hipbone, while my softening cock smeared her cheek. She was gulping air and coughing. She hadn't heard me. As much as I loved having dirty crazy sex with her, this was not the way I wanted to tell her how I felt.

  I helped her get up, and kissed her fondly. She wrapped her arms around my waist and put her head on my chest. I loved the sweet aftermath of our more violent encounters. I loved the way she trusted me to care for her.

  While she was in the shower, I lay in bed thinking about the future. For the first time in my adult life, I had someone I could love and who, by some miracle, loved me back.

  A few minutes later, she cuddled next to me.

  "I'm sweaty, baby."

  "So? I can have a shower with you."

  I didn't want to think of all the reasons she loved me. I could unravel her illusions, and set her free to be with someone her own age. Someone who could go into the shower with her and make love to her again. But she wasn't one of my cases. I had no right to manipulate her into being normal. As if there was such a thing as being normal. Maybe I deserved to be happy. I wanted to make her happy, and that should count for something.

  I pulled her closer, and pressed my lips into her temple.

  "I love you, Skye."

  "I know."
