had to think about such things. She and
Eduardo had let God determine how many children they conceived before his
death. Gordon had never wanted children and had always worn a condom every
single time.
“I… Yes. I understand.”
“How long has it been for you, Lottie? I’m at the edge of my
control, but I will not hurt you. I
swear it.”
“Almost four years,” she whispered. “When I discovered that
Gordon had been unfaithful, I told him that unless he would be faithful, I
would not welcome him intimately.”
Shock crossed Caleb’s face, followed by determination. “I
will do everything I can to make sure you never regret being with me.”
Trust did not come easily for her, but Carlotta had no doubt
he meant every word.
“Why are you still talking?” she whispered coyly.
“I’m not. And the only words I want to hear from you are
about what feels good. And feel free to scream.” He grinned.
Her belly tightened. Her folds not only hummed to life, but
screamed with need.
Then he ripped her panties from her hips with big, urgent
hands. She was still gasping when he pried her thighs open and cupped her mound
with his huge, bare hand. His skin was hot, and his touch was a shock. Her back
bowed and electricity raced down her thighs, then up again to settle under her
slick, needy folds. Gently, he ground the heel of his palm against the most
sensitive nerves. Sensations soared up, then up again, and up some more.
“So wet, Lottie.” He parted her folds with his fingers, then
toyed with that button of nerves, a gentle circle that had her mewling. “That
feel good, baby? You want more?”
Blindly, she clutched at him and nodded, lifting her hips in
supplication. Oh, he was going to give her an orgasm, and with so little
effort. The promise of the pleasure just out of reach was a stunning, welcome
surprise.
“Caleb!”
“That’s it… Let it build. Let it feel so good. You’re
getting close, aren’t you? Yeah. So damn hot, baby. Now look at me, Lottie.
Right at me. I want to see your face when you—”
Her eyes flew open as the ecstasy rushed in, converging
right between her legs, then exploded in a torrent of astonishing bliss that
flooded her entire body. Her womb pulsed. Her body blazed. The power of it was
enough to light up Mexico City. Long and breath stealing and amazing, the
orgasm dazzled. His hot blue stare locked onto her eyes, taking her captive and
refusing to let her go. Vaguely, she realized that she was screaming and her
voice echoed through the empty house.
Then she was freefalling in the aftermath, but she need not
have worried. Caleb was there to catch her, with his arms around her, pressing
his lips to hers.
“God, that was beautiful, baby.” His harsh, trembling
whisper made her smile.
“It felt…like nothing I have ever known.” She batted her
lashes shyly, feeling rosy and damp and beautiful. “More?”
His blue stare pinned her in place. “No man has ever made
you come with his hand?”
She blushed furiously and couldn’t quite meet his stare.
Hopefully, he would understand. “With his hand, his mouth, his…anything. Ever.”
Chapter 5
“If I have my way, it won’t be the last time,” Caleb
drawled.
Not by a long shot. Amazing that no man had ever managed to make her come. Well, on the other hand,
maybe it wasn’t. Not Gordon anyway. He was an asswipe of the first order,
clearly. Anyone else she’d slept with didn’t matter. If Caleb had his way, he
would be her last lover—and her best. Because for him, she had been like a
spark plug, firing quickly and powerfully. He wanted to see that again.
Caleb inched down her body, spreading kisses as he
descended. Fuck, she smelled so good. Her arousal perfumed the air, and the
olfactory high was making him dizzy. God knew it had made his cock steel hard
long ago.
Then he reached between her legs, pried her open with his
thumbs, and let his tongue drown in her sweetness. Carlotta gasped,
