Four days later, Alea watched Landon emerge from the jungle with a huge branch of green bananas slung over his rippling shoulder and realized she was in lust.
The guys kissed, cuddled, and touched her at every turn. They murmured endearments in her ear. They whispered enticements against her lips. Every night, they stroked her and curled protectively around her until she went to sleep. It was like a fantasy.
And they were slowly killing her. Death by sexual frustration.
She often awakened with one’s hand cradling a breast as he buried his face in her neck. Another would have his hand cupping her mound as he pressed his hard cock against her backside. But no one fondled her long enough to release the orgasm now constantly bubbling inside her. They’d primed her body repeatedly, and she felt ready to explode. Just being near them—even looking at them—aroused her. Yes, she’d made them promise to take it slow. But “slow” had become its own form of torture.
Alea sighed, watching the way Lan’s body moved. He was all strength and masculine grace, from his bulky shoulders to those legs that had been chiseled by hard work and pure grit. His hair was growing out already, though he took care of his beard every day during what she now called “Hot Guy Beach Bathing.”
All three of them would get in the shallows and wash themselves, their strong hands coasting all over those muscles with the soap they’d made here on the island by straining boiling water through ashes and collecting the lye, then mixing it with the melted fat from a pig Lan had caught. They’d tossed in a collection of clean-scented herbs from the island, and it wasn’t bad. In fact, the process had fascinated her, but not as much as watching them shave themselves and shove each other around in the surf. For some reason, men seemed to show their affection for each other with curses and punches.
But they showed their affection for her with toe-curling kisses and slow strokes of their hands. She was so ready to show them her affection in return.
“Hey, darlin’,” Lan said with a big grin as he entered camp. “You won’t believe what I found.”
Bananas, obviously. Alea had no trouble believing he’d found those. Lan had become the provider. He’d managed to fashion a spear from bamboo and his wicked hunting knife. Besides yesterday’s wild pig, he brought home bags full of fish every day.
Part of the pig was now roasting over the fire. It was going to be a nice dinner. She’d already gathered wild tubers to cook, too. Food was not a problem here with these men around.
Sex was, though. Or the frustrating lack of it.
God, she wanted them.
“Earth to Alea?” Lan shoved the bananas into the small storage shed Dane and Cooper had built.
They were rapidly turning into the Swiss Family Robinson. Dane, it turned out, had a true talent for tropical architecture. He’d built a little shelter with a bamboo floor and a roof made of palm fronds he’d woven tightly together, then secured to hold against the wind. It was the rainy season in this part of the world, and Dane had known it. He’d made certain she stayed safe and dry. Now, he was busy building a smoker since a small population of wild boars inhabited the island and her men seemed eager to put as many as possible in their bellies.
“Sorry. My mind is drifting,” she confessed. “What did you find?”
He shook his head. “Can’t tell you. You just have to see it. Come on. Cooper is waiting there.”
She looked out at the beach where Dane was busy gathering rocks and shells for his SOS message. Four days, and they hadn’t seen a single contrail stream from a plane. Alea knew that should probably worry her…but right now being here with them was like the best vacation ever. No outside pressures. No worries. No expectations. They had plenty of food and water, a great shelter, and each other. She was seriously beginning to question what more she needed.
“I’ll go tell him where we’re going. Hang tight.” Landon jogged out to Dane.
He’d taken to just wearing his boxers and his sneakers. It was too hot during the day to wear much else. Alea had gotten used to just wearing her bathing suit or panties and a bra. She wasn’t embarrassed anymore. The whole experience had been oddly freeing.
Lan clapped Dane on the shoulder with a nod, then ran back up the beach. He reached for her hand. “He’s going to join us when he’s done. Come on, darlin’. We’ve been working our asses off. It’s time to take an afternoon for some fun.”
She followed him into the jungle, the sun disappearing under the heavy foliage. The men had been exploring and only yesterday had declared it safe enough for her to walk around. Even so, she hadn’t been allowed to leave the beach alone. Now, she turned her face up and was mesmerized by the way the beams of sun streamed in. It was a gorgeous matrix of dewy light and green canopy. She could hear monkeys rustling and sending out calls to each other. The jungle was alive. Everything here seemed magical.
Her first night on the island, the sounds had been terribly familiar, and she’d dreamed she was back in Colombia. When she’d awakened, sweating and shaking, she’d been surrounded by her three men, all eager to soothe and reassure. To protect. And they had, every minute of every hour since.
They’d put her at ease, and now she saw the jungle like a playground. She was Eve with three glorious Adams.
“You’re going to love this,” Lan assured. “I’ve spent a lot of time mapping the perimeters. This is the first time I’ve gotten to the center.”
He’d also made a sort of trail. Alea noticed he’d cut back the foliage so she could move easily.
Up ahead she heard splashing. The island must be much smaller than she’d thought. “Is the ocean close?”
Lan shook his head, a huge grin on his face. “No. It’s a lagoon. Cooper says this whole island must be a volcano, so I assumed the pond we found would be heated by the lava underneath. Except I can’t remember the right word.”
“Magma?” she supplied.
His face fell a little. “Yeah, that was it. I’m not great with information like that.”
She pulled on his hand, forcing him to stop and face her. “I should get to spank you now.”
“What?” He glowered at her. His blue eyes had turned serious in a heartbeat.
Just like her, gorgeous Lan had his own insecurities to work through. In the last few days, she’d seen that they all had their own demons. Knowing that made it so much easier to relax and be herself around them. “I want you to stop telling yourself that you’re dumb.”
He frowned at her. “Lea, I’m pathetic if I can’t be honest with myself.”
“The same way I’ve always been ‘honest’ about my fat ass?”
“No, that’s just gorgeous, darlin’.”
“Well, I think you’re smart.” She went up on her toes, pressing a quick kiss to his lips. “But you need retraining, too.”
“C’mon… I’m not as smart as Cooper and Dane.”
“That’s crap. You may not have read as much, but you can fix that over time. Just don’t say you’re not smart. In fact, I happen to know you can be a manipulative bastard.”
“Really? You think so?” A smile broke out on his ridiculously handsome face.
“Absolutely.” She ran a hand across his chiseled cheek. It was so much easier to touch them now.
“Fine. I’ll try not to talk about it again.” He leaned over and kissed her swiftly before they started back through the foliage.
And then Alea saw the reason he’d made her trek through the jungle. Before her was a gorgeous pool of clear water. Cooper stood on a rock fifteen feet above the water, not wearing a single stitch of clothing. He put his hands over his head, every gorgeous muscle in his body on display. He was a thing of beauty. His cock hung out, long and thick even relaxed, his testicles heavy.
From where she stood, Alea watched as he executed a perfect dive and disappeared beneath the blue surface with a splash.
“You’ll love it, darlin’. The water’s fresh and so warm.” Landon toed out of his sneakers and scrambled up toward the rock from which Cooper had dived. “Come on. Let’s have some fun.”
She watched as he shoved off his boxers and dived in.
As Lan surfaced, she looked around in awe. This was paradise. Beams of golden sunlight shone down on the crystal water. Black volcanic rock formed the edges of the pool, but the water looked inviting and deep. A soft bed of grass surrounded the lagoon, and flowers made a colorful landscape just beyond. This little nugget of paradise was utterly perfect.
Cooper surfaced, his big hand slicking back his dark hair. He let out a long, joyful howl. Alea laughed. Despite everything they had been through, Cooper had kept a smile on his face. It made frowning in his presence damn hard.
In fact, everything was different here. She was different. Relaxed and positive. Happy. And she was ready to shed fear and embrace change.
Her hands went to the back of her bra. Was she really about to bare herself, cast caution aside and see where the moment led? Yes. Her fingers shook, but she managed to unhook the clasp.
Lan sprang up from the water next to Coop. They were waiting for her patiently. But her patience was at an end. She wanted them. But more, she was coming to need them. They’d taught her to be this Alea she’d discovered on the island. This woman cooked, cleaned, and did laundry. She had purpose. This Alea had shed her past here and now refused to let the past rule her life anymore. This Alea knew what she wanted.
Her men.
This island was her haven. Being here with Lan, Dane, and Coop had opened her soul. With a deep breath, she pulled her bra off.
A big smile broke across Landon’s face. “You coming in, darlin’?”
“Join us, Lea!” Cooper shouted.
She let her bra drop, and as quickly as she could, she shoved her panties down her hips, then off her legs. God, she was naked. She was completely naked. Alea shivered but not in fear.
“Hey now, gorgeous.” Cooper made his way to the side of the pool with a leer and pulled himself up to reveal his chest. “You’re a damn beautiful sight.”
Landon edged toward her, too, with a hot stare. “Holy shit.” Then he frowned. “Sorry. I lose my head when I see something that beautiful.”
They genuinely thought she was beautiful? They’d spent days telling her so. They’d shown her with their hands and their kisses. They seemed determined to make her believe she was gorgeous. It wasn’t easy after her captors had told her repeatedly how ugly she was and how little she was worth. But those pigs had been criminals, horrible human beings. Dane, Cooper, and Landon were heroes. Why should she listen to assholes more than true men?
That rationale made logical sense, but sometimes emotions—fears—weren’t logical at all. She was realizing that it was going to take time and patience to break through those barriers.
She forced her hands to her sides and walked to the edge of the pool. Without clothes—even the little bit she’d been wearing—made her feel so naked. She was more aware of the air on her skin, the cool grass at her feet, the perfume of the flowers, of just how alive she could be.
All she had to do to let herself truly be a part of everything was take one simple step.
Alea closed her eyes and turned her face up to the sun, letting it warm her skin. Then she stepped off into the void.
Water enveloped her, surrounding her utterly in warmth. She opened her eyes, shocked that she could see everything in the crystal water. Life surrounded her. Fish swam all over the pond, both alone and in small schools. A turtle with its eyes open observed the humans as it swam by. Alea watched, drinking in the sight of nature teeming. That was what she wanted—to be wide awake and alive. Unafraid.
With a smile, she broke the surface, and tropical air caressed her skin. She smoothed her hair back and sank into the moment. She’d been missing this, a deep awareness of every moment. Life would always be filled with hope and sorrow, thrill and pain, fear and bliss. And love. It was impossible to truly understand love without knowing those other emotions, without enduring loss. Everything seemed so clear now.
As she’d grown up, she’d been focused on the future. Since Colombia, she’d almost drowned in the fear and self-pity of her past. She’d damn near let it kill her. Now, she wanted to be in this moment, to forget yesterday and tomorrow, just live for now.
Landon and Cooper both dove under the surface, making their way to her. She knew exactly where they were headed and smiled. They wouldn’t leave her alone. Never.
Then one of them wrapped a hand around her ankle. A joyous little scream left her mouth before they pulled her under with them. How long had it been since she’d trusted someone enough to play? To just laugh and be? She kept her eyes open, and Cooper floated in front of her, his mouth looming closer to her own. They kissed in a sweet, if wet tangle of lips while the fish swam around them, and Lan’s arms circled her from behind.
They let her go and bobbed to the surface. Landon smiled as he waded around her. “Hey, I want one, too.”
Of course he did. She had to treat them all equally or jealousies arose. Her aunt had taught her that. Her aunt had juggled four husbands, and she’d talked to Alea about her marriage in order to prepare her niece for the future. Her aunt had always preached loving all husbands equally because each possessed different traits that completed her. Being the center of her husbands’ world had been an honor and a blessing, according to her. Alea understood now.
She put her arms around Lan. How had she ever shunned them? She’d wanted them from the moment they had walked into her life. At one time, she’d been too afraid to take them. Here, fear was no longer a necessity. It wasn’t even an option. Right here and now was heaven.
His lips parted hers, and Alea allowed his tongue to invade and seduce. He made her melt. Once, she’d been frightened of an embrace that pressed her breasts against his chest. Now she reveled in the sensations, their closeness. He clutched her hard in return. Every day, her men wrapped her up a little bit tighter, a little bit longer. Each moment, each embrace, slowly coaxing her trust.
When Landon released her, he laughed, the sound deep with joy. “I fucking love it here.”
Then he disappeared under the surface. Cooper winked at her and disappeared, too.
And the game was on. She couldn’t help the giggle that bubbled up inside her like champagne. She swam, the water flowing around her, caressing every inch of her skin. She felt in harmony with nature as she played with her men and worshipped the sun that gave life to them all. For the first time in years—maybe ever—she was brilliantly, vibrantly alive.
Finally, she made her way to the far end of the pool and pulled herself onto the grass. Smiling in contentment, she lay flat, the air and the sun caressing her skin. She watched birds fly overhead as if they didn’t have a care in the world.
“Are you tired?” Landon asked, now standing over her.
Somehow it felt right to be naked here with him, seeing every inch of his body glistening and wet. Alea propped herself up on her elbows. “No. I feel great.”
Landon sank to his knees beside her as Cooper continued splashing in the pool. “Are you hungry, darlin’? If you are, I can find you some food. Just give me a minute.”
He would do it. He would figure out a way to fish without a pole or just catch the little creatures with his hands. Or he would grab the turtles and make soup. Landon always found a way to fill her belly. But that wasn’t what she wanted him to fill right now. “I’m not hungry. Or thirsty, before you ask.” She took in a deep breath, paused…and let the rightness of the moment slide over her. “Landon, I want you.”
He flushed, his skin going the sweetest pink. His cock immediately stood and saluted. “I want you, too, baby. Are you sure?”
Even swimming with them among nature had made her realize how much she longed to do everything that felt natural to her now. “I’m past ready.”
Landon glanced over his shoulder, looking back to the pond as if looking for Cooper. “Uhm, well… This isn’t the way we planned it.”
Of course they had a plan. But she was tired of following other peoples’ plans. She got to her feet. Lan’s hesitation suddenly made her feel her nudity. They’d spent so much time praising her beauty and telling her that they wanted her. Why was Lan hesitating now?
Those nasty voices from her nightmare in Colombia started circling in her head again, vultures eager to gnaw on her confidence. Still, she refused to jump to conclusions. Maybe Lan hesitated because Dane hadn’t arrived yet?
“Why does this have to be planned? I want to be spontaneous. I want to enjoy being with you”
Lan sighed and looked up, like he was trying to gather his thoughts or his patience. “Are you really sure? I think we should talk about this.”
She’d thought they would just fall on her the minute she said yes, that sex would be easy. Alea had mentally prepared herself not to freak out if she found herself underneath one of their big, hard bodies. They claimed to want her. They were together in paradise. So what was the problem?
At times, she’d behaved wretchedly to them. And they’d been so patient. She would bet these men didn’t take crap off anyone, but they’d taken it from her. They claimed to be crazy about her, and she’d begun to believe it, but…Landon wasn’t exactly jumping on her offer.
Alea wrapped her arms around her middle. “What is there to say?”
Lan hesitated, like he had something to confess that he’d rather keep to himself. Her heart twisted. Maybe it had nothing to do with a lack of desire for her.
But what else could it be?
She turned away to find the bra and panties she’d discarded earlier when she’d been sure this afternoon would be idyllic and perfect. “Never mind. Forget I said anything. I’ll find my way back to the beach.”
Landon grabbed her arm, and when she flinched and jerked away, he held up his hands. “Alea...”
She needed to get her clothes on and she needed to do it now. But Landon had scooped them up first and was holding them to his chest.
“I need my clothes, Landon. Could I have them, please?” She was fighting off that horrible panic that came from knowing just how foolish she looked.
Cooper surfaced in the pool, his gaze bouncing between her and Lan. “Lea? What’s going on?”
“Nothing.” She took a deep breath as the truth of that statement hit her. There was nothing going on at all. It appeared that nothing ever would. And she’d made a mistake hoping otherwise.
* * * *
“Dude, what the hell happened?” Cooper barked as he climbed out of the pool and stood expectantly.
If anyone had told Lan years back that he’d be comfortable standing naked with other naked dudes, he would have told them they were crazy, but there wasn’t a whole bunch of privacy in the Army. And nudity was even easier here in paradise. He’d become pretty comfortable seeing everyone walking around with their junk hanging out.
“Alea said that she’s ready.” To move forward. To accept them. Thank God.
Cooper’s eyes widened. “Are you shitting me?”
“Nope. But there are a few problems with that scenario.”
Coop looked down the empty trail leading from the beach. “Besides…the plan?”
“Yeah. I need to tell Alea something, and she didn’t let me get it out before she decided…I don’t know. That she was ugly or I didn’t want her or some other bullshit.”
Lan kept his eyes on Alea. She was so fucking gorgeous. The sun kissed her skin, and he could just about swear she glowed.
Cooper frowned. “Not want you? Lea, his cock is so hard it’s, like, halfway up his nose. Mine’s not any softer. How can you say that? What are you thinking?”
Okay, halfway up his nose was an exaggeration, but not by much. It sure wanted to crawl toward her and work its way inside her. “Of course I want you.”
In fact, he really wanted to jump on her and spread her legs and get inside her before she could have a second thought. When she’d said she wanted him, his whole body had flashed hot. All he’d been able to imagine was her naked and under him as he fucked her until they were both sated, spent, and he had emptied everything he had inside her.
Then the big problem had whacked him in the face with a two-by-four of duh!
“Fine. Tell me what the problem is.” Alea stared at him, arms crossed over those luscious breasts.
When she turned that arrogant frown on him, he totally understood why Dane wanted to lay her out and smack her ass until she begged for mercy. Then he would let her suck his cock in apology. Lan smiled at the image.
“I only lost one piece of luggage during my swim from the plane to the shore. I’ve dived out there twenty times looking for it.” He scrubbed a hand down his face. “I think the current swept it away.”
Cooper’s jaw dropped. “No. Tell me you didn’t lose the condoms, man.”
He should have mentioned it before now. “Our stash of condoms is probably growing algae on the bottom of the sea floor. Darlin’, I have no way to protect you. None of us do.”
And that didn’t make a damn bit of difference to him. He still wanted her. Actually, the idea of fucking her with no latex between them made him crazy, primal. He could mark her. He could fill her up and know that something of him lingered inside her. He stared at her and his heart stopped a little when the sweetest smile stretched across her face.
She flushed a pretty pink. A gorgeous light glowed in her eyes. God, he loved her eyes. They were a mystery to him always, but he never loved them more than when he saw them lit as though she had a fire deep inside. It was banked most of the time, but Lan got the feeling that if he could just crack that shell of hers, she could warm them all for a lifetime. “So you still want me?”
The question nearly brought him to his knees. “Always.”
She stepped toward him. “Then don’t go. I still want you, too.”
“Good.” He swallowed, trying to hold it together. “I’m not worried about disease. Not at all. We’ve all had physicals and none of us have touched a woman since we hired on at the palace, but you could get pregnant, Lea. We could try to pull out, but…” This was probably a dumb move, but he wanted her to understand what she meant to him. “When the time was right, we were going to ask you to marry us anyway. I have no hesitation making love to you without birth control. I can’t wait for a future with you, if you’ll have us. I would love to look at your rounding belly and feel the life underneath kick my palm. Fuck, I’d love that.”
“Really?” Her lips parted in surprise. Her eyes softened.
Cooper scrubbed a hand through his hair. “We all feel that way, baby. We’re committed to this, to you.”
A pink flush crept up her cheeks. “I… That’s so sweet.”
She walked toward Lan then, arms outstretched, and he let himself look at her glorious body. First, the curves of her breasts. A heartbeat later, his gaze dropped to her nipples. So fucking pretty. Her curvy waist. Her oh-so-fuckable hips and that mound he couldn’t stop staring at. Her pussy. He wanted to taste it. Coop had licked at that pussy. He’d rubbed it across his face, and Lan was pretty sure he hadn’t washed his fucking face for days so he could still smell her.
God, his cock was killing him. His heart ached, too. He started toward her, determined to meet her halfway.
“This isn’t just sex for you?” she whispered.
Lan took her in his arms. “I love you.”
“I second that.” Cooper kissed her temple and caressed her back.
Tears spilled down her face as she planted her hands on the sides of his face. “Be sure. I’m trouble. I’m difficult. I don’t want to be, and the three of you make me want to heal and be better. So I need you to be sure.”
“You be sure. If we do this, we don’t know what the future will bring…but we know the possibilities. I’ll never be as smart as Dane and Coop, but—”
“You’re wrong.” She shook her head, more tears flowing. “You’re wonderful. The future used to scare me, but not now. I see it with you and me, Dane, and Coop. I don’t care about the condoms. I don’t care about anything right now except you. Kiss me. Love me. I need you.”
Amazing that he could give her what she needed. A real princess and an illegitimate punk from Texas should have nothing in common, but his heart had damn sure spoken. He needed her, too.
Lan swooped her against his chest and devoured her lips. With her was where he’d wanted to be for fucking months. Years. All his goddamn life. He hadn’t always known her, but he’d been looking for Alea, for the woman who could make him whole.
He fastened his hands on her hips, loving the way her velvety skin felt under his fingertips. He gripped her tighter, pulling her into the cradle of his body as he eased her lips open under his and his tongue invaded. She’d given him permission. She didn’t care about condoms? Fuck. He could fill her up about a hundred times over. Everything he had belonged to her, especially his heart.
As his hands caressed their way down, he cupped that gloriously juicy ass. It was so fucking sexy. When she’d turned earlier and flashed those cheeks to him, he’d thought he might die. Again, he slanted his mouth over hers, going as deep as he could. This was heaven. His cock was nestled against her belly, the heat of her threatening to make him blow before his time, but it wouldn’t matter. He’d just get hard again. She was the one. She made his heart soft.
Alea was goddamn everything to him.
Along with Dane and Coop, he’d worked for days to make her comfortable with his flesh against hers. Now, he pulled her even closer. She didn’t shrink back. In fact, she melted right into him, and Lan smiled. Her arms wound around his neck and she kissed him back, her tongue tangling with his. So good. So right. His cock pulsed against her belly. He could feel her nipples brushing against his chest.
He rubbed his tongue against her, showing her what he wanted to do with his cock. In and out. In and out. The way she clung to him, giving him breathy little moans, was so fucking perfect. She pressed those breasts close, and he knew damn well that this was the time. And he was her man.
“Tell me you want me,” she whispered.
That was an easy request. “More than I want my next breath.”
“I want you, Landon. Be my first. Cooper, will you help us?” Her head turned slightly, looking at his friend.
“Do I get a turn?” Cooper sounded tight, like he was damn close to the end of his rope.
A brilliant smile broke across her face. “Yes, I want to make love with you, too. We’re going to have to work on your sweet nothings, Coop. I want all my men. But you guys do all the camp work tomorrow because I have a feeling I’m going to be sore.”
“Deal!” Coop assured.
Lan laughed. He’d just carry her wherever she needed to go. In fact, he would prefer it that way.
He bent and thrust his right arm under her knees, hauling her to his chest. He wanted to make love to Lea in the soft grass. He wanted to watch every moment. He wanted to memorize it.
She wrapped her arm around his shoulders and smiled into his eyes, making him feel like the fucking king of the world. He carried her to the grass. It was buttery soft and would suit his purpose.
When he set her on her feet, Lan immediately shoved his nose in her hair. She smelled clean and tangy and sweet. Heavenly. Like the home he’d been looking for all of his life. She might wake up someday and decide that he was all wrong for her, and he would need these memories to get him through the next fifty years or so. But right now, she wanted him and was embracing the idea of their tomorrows.
With a coy smile, she wrapped her hands around the sides of his chest. He struggled not to shiver as she caressed her way lower. He kissed her again, then backed off as he felt Cooper moving in behind Alea, his arms around her waist.
“Is this okay?” Cooper asked, pushing her hair to the side so he could kiss her neck.
“It’s wonderful.” One of Alea’s hands trailed back and found Cooper’s hip.
She was no longer the woman who flinched every time one of them touched her. Landon had started to think that crashing and finding this island was the best thing that could have happened to them. If they had been in Sydney, they would never have made this much progress with her so quickly. Tal and the others would have found her, and she would have had a million and one distractions. Even though she’d meant this trip to be a vacation, she would have had responsibilities and pressure.
Here, they had nothing to do except focus on each other.
Lan watched as Cooper turned her head slightly and covered her lips with his own. It was hot to watch his buddy kiss their girl. Cooper’s hands cupped her breasts and offered them up to Lan. Yeah, he would take those. He got to his knees and licked at one nipple. Firm and ripe, he traced the areola with the tip of his tongue. Alea whimpered a little and thrust her breasts out, begging for more.
A succulent scent wafted up. Her arousal. Sweet and exotically spicy. She wanted him. Them.
He sucked at her nipples, drawing the first one into his mouth before moving to the second and suckling with abandon.
He let his fingers drift lower, slipping across her mound and splitting her labia. She was wet, a soft, sweet heat he couldn’t wait to sink into, but he would have to because she wasn’t a quick lay. No. He was going to let her take all the time she needed.
He bent over and stuck his nose right into her pussy.
“Doesn’t she smell good?” Cooper murmured.
Lan looked up, and Cooper was twisting Alea’s nipples. She was writhing in his hold, but it was a sweet little torture. There was no fear at all in her eyes.
“She smells perfect. I bet she tastes even better.”
Alea’s hips rolled and a gaspy little moan came out of her mouth. “Oh, god. Please. Please touch me, Lan.”
He didn’t think for a second that she wanted him to touch her with his fingers. No way. He ran the flat of his tongue right between her swollen folds, gathering the cream of her arousal. Oh, he’d been so right. She tasted sweet and tangy. He sucked her into his mouth and then licked a line up to her clit. That little pink jewel was pouting and begging for attention.
“Lan, please,” Alea said.
She’d been interrupted with Cooper and hadn’t gotten to come. In fact, she’d very likely never really orgasmed. She’d known violence, but she didn’t know how much ecstasy another’s touch could bring. Landon intended to show her. It was the most important thing he’d ever done. He leaned in, set his mouth on her again, and focused on showing her pleasure.
