HH02 - A Reclusive Heart (17 page)

"That's fine," he said, slowly smiling. "There are other things that we can do," he said even as he leaned in to kiss her

again.

"Other things?" she asked against his lips, too curious to focus on the kissing.

"Mmmmhmmm, other things," he murmured against her lips as his hand slid between them and cupped her breast. "A lot of

other things," he said softly as he gently guided her onto her back.

"B-but no sex," she reminded him even as her body trembled.

"No sex," he repeated smoothly as he leaned in and kissed her again.

Lying on her back like this, she felt exposed and had to grab the floral comforter to stop herself from covering herself up.

She'd never been very comfortable with her body and having a man like Nick, who'd probably been with more beautiful

woman and probably found her lacking, made her even more nervous.

"Beautiful," Nick said as he teasingly traced his fingers up and down her stomach. It was only then that she realized that

he'd stopped kissing her. Worrying her bottom lip, she glanced to the left to find him kneeling by her side as he ran hungry eyes

over her body. The way he looked at her, made her feel warm and helped ease some of the tension out of her body.

That tension came right back when he ducked his head and took one of her sensitive nipples into his mouth and suckled,

hard. She gasped as she reached up instinctively to push him away, but then she realized that it felt really good and didn't want

him to stop. Not sure what to do while he gently ran one hand over her stomach and down her leg while he licked and sucked

her breast, Jamie decided that since this might be her only chance with him that she was going to do some touching of her own.

She reached out with her right hand and slowly ran her fingers through his hair, loving the way it felt, but more importantly

encouraging him to keep going. It felt so good. Never in her life had she experienced anything that felt better. A moment later

that opinion changed when he released her left nipple to work on her right nipple just as his fingers lightly brushed over her

panties, making her gasp.

When he did it again she fought against the urge to shut her legs together tightly and forced herself to open her legs wider.

His growl of approval sent waves of pleasure through her nipple and down between her legs and she couldn't help but moan

and run her free hand over his back. He felt so good beneath her hand.

"You're soaking wet," Nick said tightly as he cupped her through her panties, making her arch her back into his touch.

From everything she'd read she knew that was a good thing, but that didn't stop her from being embarrassed.

Her embarrassment didn't improve in the next second when his hand snaked beneath her panties and he teasingly traced

her wet slit with his fingertips. Writing about sex hadn't prepared her at all for this, she suddenly realized. She'd used what

she'd learned from reading romance novels to create the sex scenes in her books and now realized that they hadn't been

adequate, not at all. She wrote about the mechanics of the act, but had never truly expressed how it felt to be touched by a man,

but now she knew. She really couldn't help but think that doing this with Nick might actually improve her writing. Of course

when he ran the pad of his finger over her clit and traced her core she decided to stop thinking and just feel.

Nick kissed and licked his way back up to her mouth. This kiss was different from the others. It was wild, hot and

intensified the pleasure between her legs. When he suddenly reached back and caught the hand that had been exploring his back

by the wrist and lowered it she became a little nervous. Maybe he didn't want her to touch him. Was she supposed to just lie

here while he explored her?

The selfish part of her didn't have a problem with that, but the other part of her, the curious part, wanted to explore, touch

and learn him. This was something new for her and she knew she wouldn't be satisfied in just lying here. She need to-

"Touch me," he pleaded softly against her lips as he brought her hand between his legs and placed it against the straining

erection in his underwear.

Not needing to be asked twice she ran a hand slowly, cautiously over his cloth covered erection and as much as she liked

it she needed more. When she reached the buttons on the front of his underwear she quickly undid them and reached inside and

couldn't help but moan when her hand came in contact with something hard as a rock and hot. She took a steadying breath as she

wrapped her hand around his erection, noting the silky smooth feel of his skin and slowly pulled it out.

She didn't need to see it to know that it was large, very large. When she went to wrap her hand around it she discovered

that she could barely do that because it was so thick. That pretty much confirmed her decision to hold off on sex for now. There

was just no way she was going to be able to lie there with this thing coming after her, she decided as she began to explore him.

"Don't stop," Nick said against her lips before he pulled away and sat up putting that monster between his legs right above

her chest.

For a moment she could only stare at the large dark pink almost purple appendage in her hand, but then Nick just had to go

and slide a finger inside of her. He groaned as he slowly worked his finger in and out of her and it wasn't long before she was

running her hand up and down his length as she moaned softly in pleasure.

As he worked his finger inside of her she was torn between watching that and what she was doing to him. When several

drops of liquid seeped out of the tip of his penis she looked up to find him watching her intently. Using her curiosity, she

pushed aside her nervousness and pulled his erection closer as she tilted her head to the side, never taking her eyes off of him,

and licked the drops of liquid away.

His bucked hard in her hand and worked his finger harder and faster in her as his thumb came into play and gently pressed

against her clit. She continued to work her hand down his shaft, but now she couldn't help but lick and suckle the large head. He

tasted so good that she couldn't help it.

"That's it, baby," Nick said, groaning.

She couldn't help but moan when he shifted slightly so that the bottom of his shaft near the head was pressed against her

hard nipple. It felt so good. Every time she stroked him his erection brushed against her nipple, sending wave after wave of

pleasure through her body until she was left half-sobbing/half-moaning as she rolled her hips, riding his finger as she licked

and stroked his erection almost wildly.

Just as she thought that she couldn't take anymore her body suddenly tightened and exploded into what felt like a million

pieces. She was barely aware of her screams of pleasure or his. The only thing she knew was that she never felt anything that

good that is until the hot liquid shooting across her sensitive nipples set her off again.

Suddenly she found her hand empty and Nick's mouth back on hers as he slowed his movements between her legs. He

swallowed her content little moans as her hips slowly came to a stop, leaving her panting content and weak. He pressed one

last kiss against her lips before pulling away.

"Go get cleaned up. We have to leave for the airport in an hour," he said absently as he tucked himself back in his

underwear and headed for the bathroom, leaving her feeling a little used and unsure, but then she reminded herself that it would

be stupid to expect anything else.

This just might be their only experience together and she wasn't going to wreck that by feeling anything but the pleasure

he'd just given her. Although she really hoped they did it again, she thought with a content little sigh as she began her search for

her clothes and apparently a wash cloth.

Chapter 16

"Aren't you cold?" Nick asked through clenched teeth as the asshole standing next to him checked Jamie out instead of the

airport's arrival board like he should be doing.

He sent Jamie's sexy tattoo another glare. Why the hell was she walking around with her jeans low on her hips and her

shirt ending just below her breasts like that? She should only be wearing those types of things when he was around, which

brought him right back to why he was pissed.

After fooling around with Jamie this morning he should have grown bored immediately, especially when he realized that

was all he would ever get from her. They could fool around for months and she would probably never let him between her

legs. Jamie was a good girl whether she wanted to be or not. Fooling around with him was one thing, but losing her virginity to

him was quite another.

Even knowing there was no chance in hell to slide into heaven he couldn't stop thinking about her. He wanted to touch her

and make her come again, but this time while she screamed his name and he sure as hell wanted her to touch him again. It had

been the first hand job he'd received since he was a kid and undoubtedly the best. He'd never come so hard in his life and knew

that if she ever fully took him into her mouth it would probably kill him.

"No," Jamie said, looking around and not bothering to look back at him, which was probably a good thing since he

couldn't seem to tear his eyes away from her tattoo and ass. "It's warm in here and we're going to Georgia so I doubt I'll be

cold."

He sent a glare at her ass before he forced himself to look away. "Too much sunlight isn't good for your tattoo," he

reminded her, hoping she'd just take the damn hint and cover up before he had to break the jaw of the bastard practically

drooling next to him. What the hell was wrong with this asshole checking Jamie out when she was clearly with him?

Maybe the asshole didn't know that Jamie was with him, he decided since the damn woman was a good five feet in front

of him instead of by his side where she belonged. He threw the bastard a glare as he stepped up to Jamie's side and threw his

arm around her shoulders. Jamie threw him a curious look but didn't say anything.

Smart woman.

Right now he was torn between kissing the hell out of her and spanking that sweet ass of hers. This was all her fault. He

shouldn't be feeling like this. In fact, he hated feeling like this. Instead of standing here with her he should have followed

through with the brush off he'd automatically started this morning and right now he should be flirting with the hot stewardess

that kept shooting him welcoming glances.

What in the hell was wrong with him
?

"Are you still cranky?" Jamie asked.

"I'm not cranky," he bit out even though he was feeling pretty damn cranky at the moment.

"Uh huh," she said as she looked around the busy airport until her eyes landed on the small cafe. "Well, while you're doing

whatever it is that you're doing I'm going to get something to drink and eat while we wait to board."

Before he could stop the damn woman she was stepping out from beneath his arm and heading over to the cafe. He of

course took note of every guy that stopped what they were doing to stare at her ass. That was
his
ass they were all staring at

and he wasn't having it. Until he was done with her that was his ass to enjoy and he was damn well going to enjoy it, he

decided as he stalked over to her and took her back into his arms where she damn well belonged.

At least for the moment.

*******

She gestured towards the door where most of the fans were heading. "To grab a taxi and head back to the hotel," she said,

frowning since he was the one that said they were ready to leave.

Nick gestured towards the back exit of the building. "The
RNL
was so pleased by this year's turnout that they decided to

treat you to a limo for the night," Nick explained as they walked towards the back exit.

Jamie wondered if this was going to be the moment he chose to clear the air between them. Even though she'd already

figured it out for herself it would be nice to hear it from him. It wouldn't be the first time she heard the rejection speech, but it

would probably be the most painful one. She wasn't looking forward to hearing it, but she knew this morning that it was

possible that this little love affair of theirs wouldn't last throughout the day. She already had her experience with him and she

wasn't going to ruin it by being sad about it ending before it really begun.

"Here we are," Nick said, gesturing to a sleek black limousine parked less than ten feet from the door.

Jamie sent the driver, an older man with short brown hair a polite smile as she accepted his help into the limo. Once she

was inside she of course had to look around since it was her first time in the back of one these things. There was a lot more

room than she thought there would be. There was plenty of room to seat eight adults comfortably, a flat screen television and

even a mini bar in the sidewall. Being given the kiss off by Nick would definitely be memorable, she thought with a frown as

she watched a black divider suddenly slide up, cutting off her view of the front seat and the driver. Privacy was probably for
