The Skin She's In by Margo Collins (online e book reader .txt) 📕

comfort every bit as much as I did lit me from within, and I met his heat with a fire of my own, pressing hard against him and pushing his lips open with my tongue, deepening our kiss.

With a groan, Kade skimmed his mouth down the side of my neck, dropping tiny kisses along the way until he reached the hollow just below my collarbone. When he licked that spot, I whimpered. Then he was pulling off my shirt and casting it aside, and then tugging my bra with one hand. He drew me tight against him with the other hand against my back and sucked my breast into his mouth, running his tongue over my pebbled nipple.

Streaks of heat sparked from my nipple straight down to pool in my abdomen, where it seemed to throb in time to my heart, every beat a pulse of sheer desire.

“Please,” I whispered, not even sure why I said it—but the single word seemed to act as a spur for Kade, who pushed off my pants and swept me up with both hands under my ass and lifted me from the floor, moving his mouth back to mine for another deep, tongue-tangling kiss.

Instinctively, I wrapped my legs around his waist, crossing them at the ankle behind him, and tightened my arms around his neck.

I could feel him hard against me, our underwear between us an irritant. With tiny, inarticulate noises, I wiggled a little, as if I could dislodge the fabric between us by motion alone.

I gasped when, having donned a condom, Kade pulled my panties out of the way. Then I moaned as he guided the tip of his cock to my slick entrance, wiggling as he barely pushed up and then slid back out without fully settling me onto him.

“Hang on,” he whispered, then thrust upwards at the same moment he loosened his grip enough to let me drop down onto him.

The sudden sensations as I stretched to take him in completely made my eyelids flutter closed and all I could do was repeat “yes,” over and over, even as I tightened and loosened my thighs to meet him, thrust for thrust, as he pumped into me.

Fucking as soon as we walked in the door wasn’t exactly what I had planned.

Then he was inside me again, and there was no more room for thought. I pulsed around him, pulling him into the deepest, hottest part of me.

Kade shifted his hands to grip my ass tightly, pulling me closer as he drove into me. I whimpered, and he moved his hands again, this time making sure he could still hold me with one hand while he slid the other between us.

For just an instant, I wished I’d had the foresight to take off my underwear before he picked me up. But I discovered quickly enough that he could fit his hand down the front of them.

Lightly, he dragged his knuckles downward through my curls until he brushed them against my clit. My sharp inhale and the tightening of my pussy around his cock made him swell even more, and he began to circle my clit with his thumb as he moved inside me.

My own rhythmic motions grew faster. Throwing my head back made it more difficult for Kade to hold me in place, but I don’t think he would’ve stopped for anything.

When I leaned my forehead against his and stared into his eyes, my breath hard and fast and mingling with his own, it was all I could do to keep from coming right then.

Yes. This man.

Now.

Always.

I closed my eyes, my breath ragged and my movements wild as I ground my clit against his hand and pulled myself down onto him until he was as deep as he had ever been before—deeper—and I could feel from the way he grew harder and harder the pressure building, ready to explode into me, and still he tried to move even closer to me, further into me, as if he could reach the very core of me.

I came with a cry, shudders wracking my body as I clung to him, tightening around Kade in waves that seemed to match the sound of his heart. And then he was pouring himself into me, every pulse of his own orgasm a hot reminder of how much he loved me.

Chapter 32

WHEN I COULD THINK again—beyond simply “Yes” and “don’t stop”—I realized Kade’s legs were trembling. I wasn’t surprised. The way he had swelled and heated inside me just before his orgasm had triggered something inside me—either a second orgasm, or a continuation of my first, I wasn’t sure.

In any case, that white-hot passion had wiped out everything else from my consciousness, leaving me draped helplessly, almost bonelessly, around Kade. Apparently, he had managed to keep us upright. If I had been in charge of the standing, I wasn’t sure I would have done as well.

The thought made me giggle against the crook of his neck, and I dropped a kiss against the hollow there as Kade asked, “What?” His voice was more than a little breathless.

“You can put me down now, I think.”

At that, he laughed, too. “I’m not sure I can. But I’ll try.”

I WOKE THE NEXT MORNING to my alarm, a reminder that the human world still held part of my allegiance, no matter how exhausted I was.

I groaned and buried my head under the pillow. “I don’t want to go talk to damaged human children today.”

“You could probably call in—I let Gloria know yesterday that one of the mothers we’re sponsoring went into labor yesterday, so you might be a little late.”

“I’m not sure that would help at all,” I said, my voice still muffled. “She doesn’t approve of the humanized version of our plan.”

Kade snickered. “That’s because the humanized version is insane. People don’t date for a couple of months and then suddenly agree to become house-parents to a bunch of children fathered by a serial rapist.”

I let
