“When I was old enough to join in, they would take turns teaching Morgan, Rose, me, and then Avery all the secret family recipes. Rose always liked to sit off to the side and draw the food, though. She never was one for getting in and preparing it.” I smiled at the memories.
“It must have been great growing up with a big family like that. You all seem more like brothers and sisters than you do cousins.”
Turning to look at him, I nodded and softly said, “Yeah, we are.”
Maverick focused on flipping the bacon. “There’s another pan in that cabinet in front of you if you want to get the veggies going.”
Without a word, I got a pan out, moved to his other side, and turned on one of the burners. I set the pan on it and asked for a cutting board. As I worked on cutting veggies, I decided to ask Maverick some questions.
“Do you ever have nightmares?”
I could feel his eyes on me. “No. Do you?”
Shrugging, I said, “I’m not sure.”
“Since I’ve never really had anyone sleep with me before…I guess I’m not sure either.”
I clenched my jaw tightly, conflicted about whether I should mention his nightmare last night.
“Want me to turn the gas on so the pan can heat up?”
What I needed to do was talk to my mother and father. They’d have advice on the best way for me to handle what had happened last night.
Maverick’s hand waved in front of me. “Earth to Lily?”
I let out a nervous laugh. “Sorry, I was daydreaming.”
He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me back against him. “About what?”
“You,” I said as I twisted my body some to look at him. It wasn’t a lie. I had been thinking about him.
“Good things?”
“The best kinds of things.”
“Was it maybe about me fucking you with my mouth while you lay on the island?”
An instant rush of wetness hit between my legs, and I had to squeeze them together.
“No, but now that’s all I’m going to be thinking about.”
He turned me to face him. With a wicked smile, he moved the cutting board and veggies to the side, then lifted me up. I let out a yelp as the cold stone countertop hit my bare skin.
Maverick lifted a brow. “No panties, huh?”
I felt my cheeks heat, along with my entire body.
He spread my legs and moaned as he took me in. “I can see how wet you are for me, Lil.”
“Always,” I gasped, my breathing suddenly coming faster and heavier.
He dropped down and lifted both legs over his shoulders. The moment his tongue slipped inside me, I cried out. My hands went to his hair, where I laced my fingers and dug in, pulling him closer. I shamelessly rocked against his mouth as my climax started to grow.
“Maverick. Oh…oh yes. Yes…that feels…so…I’m going to come!”
I wasn’t sure what he did. Maybe he added his fingers, or maybe he tilted my bottom up. Whatever it was, my orgasm slammed into me and I clutched him closer still as I came so hard, I swore I saw stars.
My entire body trembled. Right when I was coming down, he flicked my clit with his tongue, then covered it with his mouth.
“I can’t!” I screamed.
He looked up at me. “You can.”
Thrashing my hips, I dropped my hands to the island to hold on. He grabbed my thighs, keeping me still, and pulled out another orgasm. Hell, it might have been the same damn one, I wasn’t sure. All I knew was that I could hardly breathe when he finally removed his mouth.
“Jesus,” I gasped as I felt myself returning to my body.
He lifted me, and I went slack in his arms. Walking over to the wall in the living room, he pushed me against it, then lowered me onto him. The way he filled me so completely had me sighing with pleasure and a feeling of utter bliss.
“Maverick,” I whispered, my mouth finding his in a searing kiss, my arms and legs wrapping around him. Then he started to move. Fast and hard as I met him thrust for thrust.
Beads of sweat appeared on both of us as we moved like we couldn’t get enough of one another. It was raw and carnal and so damn hot.
I could feel my body begin to tighten around him. Grabbing his face with my hand, I cried out, “I’m coming!”
He groaned as he thrust in hard and fast, then buried his face in my neck and cried out, “Lily! Oh God, Lily…”
I wasn’t sure how it kept getting better. One minute he was making love to me, the next he was fucking me like it was our last time. I loved every second of it.
He gently pulled me off him and helped me stand. My legs felt weak, and I started to slide down the wall, but Maverick caught me, sitting on the couch and pulling me onto his lap.
