I whimper in response, already shaking like a leaf.
“Can I?”
“C-can you w-what?” My brain stops functioning and my body takes over.
“Taste you.”
My hips move forward on their own volition, and I’m basically feeding him myself.
But Rowan doesn’t need any more encouragement. He hooks my panties to the side and drags his tongue along my slit. I let out a long moan, feeling the pounding between my thighs.
He takes his time, licking a stripe and flexing his tongue on my clit. With his fingers, he parts my folds, swiping his tongue along the most sensitive parts of me, making me yank his hair.
I don’t even last long.
My orgasm hits like a sledgehammer. My body tense up before pleasure wracks me in waves. And I tremble uncontrollably, almost falling to the floor before he catches me in his arms.
Rowan cups my ass and lifts me like I weigh nothing, looping my legs around his waist and bringing me to his bed. He lays me down, the soft mattress dipping underneath me, and his hands are already busy unbuttoning the rest of my silly outfit.
He takes them all off until I’m left in nothing but my bra and panties.
“God, you’re beautiful. How are you even real?”
He grabs my face and kisses me hungrily, our tongues tangling, while he slowly drags me up his bed until my head is resting on his pillow. The moment he rips my panties off, my mind catches up and I sit on my elbows. “Rowan, wait!”
Rowan is in the process of unclasping my bra in front, but he stops. “You’re not ready for this? Because I’ll stop.”
Shaking my head frantically, I touch his forearm. “No! That’s not it. I need to tell you something.”
A crease appears on his forehead. “Right now?”
“Right now.”
He sits on his haunches and nods. “Okay, I’m listening.”
“I’m a virgin,” I blurt out.
Rowan’s body goes rigid, neck and shoulders tensing up.
“Are you angry? Are you disappointed? Rowan, talk to me.”
Instead of getting up to leave, which I expect him to do, he leans forward and flattens his palms to the bed, hovering over me. “No and no. I’m just coming to terms with the fact that no one has ever had you and no one else ever will.”
Relief washes over me, and I slump back on the bed.
Rowan buries his face in the crook of my neck—his short, coarse stubble prickly on my skin—and sucks the sensitive spot there, making my eyelids flutter.
“I need to warn you in advance, Raven. Once I stake my claim, you’re mine. There’s no turning back for you. Your present and your future will belong to me. Understand?”
My arms loop around his neck. “Yes. Yes.”
His big hand cups my breast, kneading and squeezing, as he lowers his head and swipes his tongue on my nipple, making me bow off the mattress. “One last thing. I’m good with my hands. I build things, put stuff together. But tonight, I’ll use it to make you fall apart in my arms.”
Sweet Lord.
I’m looking at everything through a sexual haze, but I expect Rowan to be rough, taking me as he sees fit. But…his touch is gentle, almost with reverence. I love it. I love that he fears he’ll break me when all I want is for him to annihilate me completely.
Without mercy.
Rowan trails kisses between my breasts, down to my soft stomach to that little pouch underneath my belly button, which I’ve always hated. I’m supposed to feel self-conscious being laid bare like this. But I’m not and that surprises me. I’m not mentally listing all my imperfections because I don’t feel any at this moment.
He’s tasting, laving, and stroking my hard nub with his tongue. My open palm flies to my mouth, and I scream into it while my toes curl and my other hand fists the sheets.
But he’s far from done.
Rowan parts my thighs, hot eyes raking all over my body and zeroing in on the junction between my thighs, reaching over to run his thumb along my dripping folds.
When he takes out his cock from his boxers, I almost rush back to my bedroom. The man is huge. Naturally, he’ll be the same size everywhere.
Before I know it, I’m shaking my head, fingers gripping the silk sheets. “Rowan… That won’t fit.”
His mouth curls up, a dark gleam in his eyes. “It will, baby girl. Your body’s made to be claimed by me and only me. Will you take it like a good girl?”
Fire licks along my spine and my eyes go a little hazy. “I will.”
“Good. Now eyes here, baby. Don’t look anywhere else. I need to see how your eyes lose focus the moment I slide inside your tight, virgin pussy.”
Oh god. Those words. How the hell do they have so much power over me? He’s not even inside me yet, but I almost come from what comes out of his mouth. So when he positions the tip in front of my entrance, I rock forward to meet him, in awe at the way he throws his head back, the column of his throat flexing and flexing.
