Chapter 20
Vanessa
Monday
I smiled as he took me by the hand and led me back into the bedroom. My heart was pounding in my chest as we left the candle-lit atmosphere of the living room and back down the hall.
When we made it to the doorway, Adam slid his one of his hands around my waist and the other at the back of my head to kiss me deeply. His lips and sweet caresses brought a sigh from within my chest when they broke from mine and trailed a line of kisses down my neck. Every nerve was alight with anticipation. My heart rate accelerated, and I felt my cheeks flush.
As he kissed me on the lips, Adam’s hands roamed across the fabric of my garment, tugging lightly on the straps across my shoulder. The look in his eyes was almost feral, the primal hunger blaring fiercely when he gazed back at me. “Vanessa, what are you doing to me?” he breathed out huskily.
I chuckled softly as I was pulling him closer and said, “Well, I thought the sex would be quite obvious.”
He laughed, roaming his hands beneath the delicate rim of fabric on my lingerie. I smiled at the way his fingers touched my skin and sent a thrill of pleasure through my body. Our heavy breathing and elated sighs were the only sounds I could hear as we slowly shifted toward the bedside. Adam pressed against me, and I gasped, feeling his erection through the fabric of his pants. Unconsciously, I rocked my hips against the throbbing manhood, and my mouth began to water.
As I leaned back against the edge of the mattress, Adam lowered himself on top of me so that he was kissing the tender flesh along my cleavage. He gripped the curve of fabric around my breasts while kneading softly and bringing the kisses lower and deeper in between. The swirling of his tongue caused me to gasp and reach back for the pillow on his mattress, unable to think about anything except my own desire and the need for him to be inside me.
I squirmed beneath him and grasped at the fabric on the mattress to support myself. When his lips came to the silk bow holding my garment together, he glanced up at me and smiled before tugging at the end of the ribbon and letting the entire thing come undone.
The fabric fell apart on either side, revealing the naked flesh below, and Adam hissed out approvingly. “Mmm… Vanessa,” he moaned out gratefully.
Biting my lip, I looked up at him seductively with a come-hither smile that I hoped he found appealing. Gently, he brushed his thumb across the pink nub of my nipple, and I gasped with pleasure. “Adam!”
I felt the length of him pressed against me as his lips came crashing down on top of me. Our hands were frantic as we removed the rest of our undergarments, and he reached down to position himself at the heat of my entrance.
I had been wet for him ever since he walked in through the doorway and knew that I’d be having him the rush of blood had juices practically dripping down my thighs. I knew he felt it, too, because he touched me for a moment, stroking my inner lips so they would open for him like a blooming flower. As he sensed my longing, Adam moaned and kissed me harder on the mouth, completely aroused and wanting this every bit as much as I did.
Our lips never left each other for a second as we tore the fabric from our bodies and tossed them on the floor, we could get enough of tasting the other.
I was ready for him: so ready. I had been wanting this for days now.
The way he touched me was with such devotion that I couldn’t help becoming addicted to it. I bucked my hips against him longingly and slid my hand up along his waist.
His tongue was halfway down my throat, tangled in a war with mine when I felt him thrust inside me. My eyes flew open it shock and delight at the wave of pleasure broke the kiss immediately. “Oh, God!”
A moment later, he started moving, and I gasped again, rolling my hips against him to keep time with the rhythm and friction of our lovemaking. It sent shivers down my spine and bursts of unexpected tingles when he raised me higher and hit the sensitive cluster of nerves. With Adam standing and my legs hanging off the edge of the bed, he was able to penetrate deeper than before and bring a whole new sensation to my body.
His hands wandered up to my waist and thighs while he met my body with equal thrusts. We moved together, and I felt my breathing become labored. Beads of sweat were appearing on his forehead when he abruptly stopped the movement and came down to whisper in my ear, “Turn over.”
The way he said it sent a thrill of anticipation through my body as he removed himself from inside me and I rolled over on my stomach. I slid off the remaining piece of fabric off my shoulders and threw it on the floor. Now we were both standing on the edge of the bed, with my chest leaning up against the mattress and my rear exposed.
My heart was pounding wildly because we’d ever done it like this before. As the blonde tresses swept down in front of me, they tickled my collarbone.
“I’m not really into anything nonconventional,” I warned him nervously.
I could see him nod out of the corner of my eyes as the warmth of his body came pressing up against my backside. I was more or less pinned to the mattress in front of him, but I felt completely safe. “Don’t worry; I wasn’t going to try anything like that. It’s just a new position.”
When he finished explaining, I could feel myself relax. Gently, he brushed my hair to the side of my neck and placed his hand on the small of my back. “God, your skin is so soft,” he murmured quietly.
I smiled against the bedsheet and looked back at him over my shoulder.
“Are you ready?”
I nodded slightly and felt his hands prodding gently at my entrance. When I felt him press inside me, I licked my lips with nervous anticipation and closed my eyes until he filled me up completely. “Augh!”
“Are you okay?” he asked me in alarm.
“Yeah, it’s good! Oh, God… Adam, please…”
He waited to make sure I was okay and then started moving back and forth. I reached forward and grasped the fabric on the mattress, feeling the pressure inside me rising. It was too good.
Adam cried my name as he continued, running his hands along my hips. “Vanessa! Ugh, you drive me crazy. I’ve been wanting you so bad.”
I panted breathlessly and arched my back so that my hips would meet him eagerly. “Ahhh! I wanted you, too.”
He groaned with pleasure once again and dipper dower to kiss me on the shoulder. I could feel his passion rising as the tempo changed—fast and more manic than before. It released my own inhibitions, and I smiled at the feel of him losing himself inside me. Moving together, I quickly felt my pressure rising and bring me closer to the building orgasm. All at once, he found a particularly good rhythm that struck a chord, and I screamed out my own release. “AUGHHH! Adam, I’m cumming!”
The sound of my passionate cry took him over the edge as well, and he arched his back against me. Our bodies were both spent and covered with sweat by the time we climbed onto the mattress. Adam and I both collapsed and lay there heaving for a moment while we gasped to catch our breath. “That was incredible!” I told him through ragged panting.
He smiled rolling over to spank me lightly on the butt. “You started it with that delicious outfit of yours!”
I laughed, glancing down at the lacy fabric of my nightie and the sheer black gauze attached to ribbons around the edges. “Glad to know that it has served its intended purpose.”
His hand slid down the length of my thigh and kissed me tenderly on the lips. I closed my eyes and sighed at the gentle touch of his nimble hands and fingers. When he pulled away from me, Adam smiled and dipped again to kiss behind my ear and trailed a line of them up my jawline. “Mmm… ” he sighed. “I wish we could stay here like this all night, but I’m getting hungry. Do you want anything?”
“Yeah, I’m starved.”
“Okay, I’ll bring you a glass of water and start making something.”
I smiled at him and nodded,” Okay!”
Adam leaned forward and kissed me briefly on the lips before climbing out of bed and pulling on a pair of pajama pants. I pulled the sheets up to cover my nakedness and watched him leave, but I couldn’t stop smiling.
Get a grip, Vanessa!
I felt so completely free and blissfully happy whenever we were together. I wanted to feel like that all the time. My heart skipped a beat at the thought of it, and I ran my fingers through my hair. What does that mean? Am I falling for him?
A minute later, Adam came walking back into the room with two glasses of water and sat beside me on the bed. “Here you go,” he offered pleasantly.
“Thank you.”
“I got out a frozen pizza; I hope that’s okay with you. I didn’t really feel like cooking.”
I smiled, taking a sip of the ice water. “Pizza sounds great.”
He nodded and drank his entire glass of water in one sitting before setting it on the nightstand. “Good because I’ve already got the oven heating.”
We sat there for a while in silence, just allowing the moment to settle. Every inch of my body was still tingling from the waves of adrenaline from the heightened senses. I reached up and tugged absentmindedly on a piece of hair and stared up at the ceiling.
“I’ve been meaning to ask you about how things are going at Frank Howell,” he commented briefly. “It sounded like you were conflicted when we talked before.”
I nodded thoughtfully and looked up at him with a smile. “Yeah, I was. Things seem to be going really great, though. I’ve had a couple shoots so far, and everyone is really happy with the product, so I guess its fine.”
“Good! And, you’re enjoying yourself?” he asked with genuine concern.
I exhaled a tired laugh and told him, “Oh my gosh, yes! It’s everything I ever wanted it to be.”
Adam smiled, propping himself up of one of his arms and looked at me. “That makes me really happy. I knew Frank would be good for you.”
“You know what? He really is. I guess my concerns were a little irrational.”
Adam shook his head and reached up to brush a piece of hair behind my hair. I smiled at the tender display of affection after the physical exertion of our lovemaking. “Don’t say that; it’s completely normal to want to know who you’re getting into business with. I’m glad you were able to talk to me about it.”
Before I could respond, the alarm in the kitchen went off to let us know the oven was ready. Adam smiled and kissed me on the nose before rolling off the bed and walking over to put the pizza in. When he came back, we spent the rest of the night talking about our families and our lives.
By the time we were finished talking, the pizza was eaten, and we were still laughing naked on the bed. I wanted every night to end like this. All the stress from the day melted away, and I was completely at peace.
As I was picking up the dishes and bringing them back into the kitchen, with a goofy grin spread across my face, I realized something.
“Oh no… I’m in love with him.”
