vulnerable to his play. He traced around her aureole, then grasped the nipple between several fingertips and slowly, gently pulled outward, as if her nipple were a sucker being pulled from a mouth.
'Go lower,' Emma whispered.
He slid his hands down her torso, then back up again, and felt goose bumps rise on her skin.
'Lower.'
He skimmed the base of her abdomen, fingertips barely touching the beginning of her nether hair.
'Lower.'
He trailed his fingertips down over the tops of her thighs, returning upward on their soft inner sides only to repeat the same path again. Emma parted her legs in invitation and he skimmed up to, but not touching, her sex.
He wanted to touch it; wanted to feel if she was damp for him yet; if her entrance pulsed for him. He wanted to feel her warm soft inner lips part for him, and to feel her arch her hips against his hand.
But she had to ask for it.
She seemed to have forgotten the necessity of words. She parted her legs yet farther and reached up and back with one hand to hold his neck.
The sides of his index fingers met where leg curved into sex, his thumbs touching the surface of her curls but no deeper. He pressed his hands harder against the inner tops of her thighs, massaging in a circle, knowing that the motion would transfer to her sex.
Emma pulled away from him, leaving his hands and arms empty. She peered over her shoulder at him, then lay down on her stomach, stretching across the bed.
'Massage the backs of my thighs and my backside. Please.' She tucked her face into her arm, lifting her head again a moment later to peer at him over her arm, as if uncertain whether she'd asked too much.
Hardly.
He went to work on her thighs and buttocks, although his hands yearned to tease her until she whimpered
He felt a fool for having missed that fact in all the times they'd been together. He'd been touching her the way
It was going to be torture for his eager body. Each
But what sweet torture.
Emma felt his hands moving on her as she had asked and tried to relax and enjoy it. She knew now that he would continue this as long as she wanted, but she sensed a hint of impatience in his touch.
He was the one who had insisted on doing as she wished despite her embarrassment: he could suffer for it.
The thought that she was subtly torturing him was perversely freeing. She could revel in that, in a way that she was afraid to revel in asking for what she wanted without thought of his own pleasure.
One of his massaging hands slipped between her thighs and pressed a little too close to her sex, setting off a shiver of sensation. It was deliciously tempting, but she wasn't going to give in to it. Not yet.
'My lower back,' she ordered, and made a small
It was only when he'd touched every inch of her except her sex; only after he'd gently stroked her eyebrows and the shape of her ears; after he'd run the flats of his hands down the front of her torso, treating her breasts as any other part of her body, making her stretch her arms above her head and arch her back in catlike contentment; only after he'd touched the smooth space behind her ear and let his fingertips press over the faint ridges of her rib cage, that she knew she was ready to ask for something more.
'Lie on top of me and kiss me. I want to feel trapped. Pinned.'
She felt his weight on her, his arousal a hard thickness against her loins. 'Now kiss me like you're starving for it, and won't take no for an answer.'
'No problem,' he murmured, and took her face between his hands. His eyes looked down into hers with dark intensity, almost animal in their naked hunger.
She closed her eyes and let him kiss her, enjoying the sure, hungry movements of his mouth on hers and the weight of his body. She
She wrapped her arms around his chest and one leg around the back of his. 'Take me,' she whispered against his ear as his mouth sucked at the edge of her jaw. 'Now.' She moved her hips against his erection, feeling it slide against her mound, his position changing enough that the head ran down her sex and across her slick wetness.
'Tell me how,' he growled into her ear. 'Spell it out, Emma.'
She felt the head rubbing against her opening, teasing at her with its blunt hardness that refused to enter. 'Don't ask. Just do it. That's what I want!'
'Say it. Say how.'
Frustration boiled up within her and in a flurry of motion she fought out of his embrace, making him yelp in surprise and climb off her. She rolled onto all fours, looked over her shoulder at him, moved her knees apart and lowered her torso, her sex spread out in an unmistakable target. 'Is
Without another word he put one hand hard on her hip and the other to his cock for guidance, and she gasped as he thrust inside her with one long, deep stroke. She dropped her forehead down onto the mattress, feeling him move the length of her, stroking hard, his thickness within her body and seeming to take up half of it. She was no longer in sole possession of her body, and it was just what she wanted.
'Your fingertip,' she gasped out in near incoherence, wanting him to reach around and stroke her nub.
'What was that?'
'Your finger. Use your finger.'
There was a pause; then she felt his hands on her buttocks. Her eyes widened, but before she could stop him she felt the tip of one finger dip into her back door.
Shock held her motionless.
His thrusts resumed their former energy, his fingertip following the rhythm, pressing in and releasing along with each thrust.
Her psyche was overwhelmed by the double penetration, the double possession. A cool liquid rush washed over her, and she lost all sense of where she ended and he began.
With her right hand she reached down to her sex, touching the joining of their bodies, feeling the wetness and the movement of flesh against flesh. Her fingertips damp, she trailed them to her nub and stroked.
Triple contact now, her whole consciousness existing in the trio of sensations. They blended together, amplifying each other: thrusts of his cock inside her, the pressure of his fingertip at her back opening, the tingling pleasures of her own hand at work on her desire.
