He drove his cock into her hard.

At the sudden invasion, she shattered. Screaming with
release, she convulsed around him. He wasn’t gentle, thrusting hard, holding
her stimulation at its peak as he created wave after wave of pleasure until her
orgasm gradually receded. She squeezed her pussy.

Zach’s fingers bit into her hips. “Oh, don’t do that yet.
You’ll make me come.”

She froze. “You didn’t come?”

He pulled out and she turned to face him.

He made her sit on the bed. “Nope. I’m waiting for the right
moment.”

Her release energized her, so if he thought he could play
hard to get, he was dead wrong. She climbed onto the bed and sat cross-legged.
The drugs Josh gave her made her bold, but Zach would forgive her. She stroked
her right breast and rubbed the nipple between her fingers. “I hope that moment
comes soon or I’ll have to pleasure myself.”

She watched his jaw tense as she slipped her other hand
between her legs and rubbed her clit. It felt so good and yet so bad to have
him watch her. He turned away and bent over, giving her a close-up view of his
ass with his balls hanging between his legs. Her excitement intensified.

When he faced her again, he had nipple clamps in his hands.
Already the remembered feel of them hanging off her peaks had her pussy flowing
again. She purred. “You found my toys.”

“Yeah, and I want to play too.”

“I always thought it’d be better with two people.” She let
go of herself and scooted to the side of the bed to make room for him.

“You’ve only used these by yourself?”

She nodded. “You don’t think I’m a prude, do you?”

He laughed, his full-hearted laugh. The sound made her warm
inside and had nothing to do with sex. Her heart swelled.

He crawled onto the bed and dangled the clamps in front of
her. “Come here. I want to play with you.”

Bea rose on her knees and thrust out her chest. “I’m all
yours.”

* * * * *

Zach brushed the hair from Bea’s face before lifting the
robe off the chair and tying the belt. They’d already made use of that chair,
the bed, the tub, even the floor and they were only halfway through. He glanced
at the clock. One o’clock in the morning and Bea had begun to tire.

He quietly opened the door and slipped out. He heard Kayla’s
voice as he approached Josh’s room. The two of them had not even had a date,
but Josh’s help with Bea’s and his dilemma and Kayla’s friendship with Bea kept
throwing the two of them together. Knocking, he turned the knob and opened the
door.

Kayla was sitting on the edge of a dresser, while Josh
leaned back in a chair, his feet crossed next to her.

Zach shook his head. “You two still talking?”

Josh smirked, but Kayla frowned at him. “Honey, what’s wrong
with a little conversation?”

Sinking into the overstuffed chair in the corner, he faced
them.

Josh brought his feet down. “How are you holding up?”

“I’m doing okay, but I think she’s tiring.”

Josh leaned forward. “That’s good. That means my theory is
right. She told me she feels energized after she releases her toxins. If she’s
tiring, that means there’s less in her system. How many times so far?”

He held up one hand.

“Excellent.” Josh clapped his hands.

Zach peered at the clock. “I think we need more nutrients.
She’s also a little too lucid for my comfort. You may want to slip her another
hallucinogen. If she realizes what I’m doing, she’ll end it.”

Josh peered at him. “And how are you feeling?”

“Good enough.”

“No, I think it’s time for a little Viagra with a splash of
antidote.”

Zach stood. “Fine. Whatever it takes. By the way, what made
you decide it needed to be nine orgasms, why not four or fourteen?”

Josh had already headed for the door to prepare the drugs,
but he stopped halfway through it. “According to Bea, she needs three orgasms a
week to survive, so I determined the number of orgasms per day versus her
levels of toxicity and the elapsed time for them to build minus the amount of
antidote in comparison to the poison in her body for that time period.”

“Huh?”

Josh shrugged. “I guessed.”

Zach stood stiffly as the tension in his muscles built.
Anger colored his tone. “You guessed?”

Josh nodded. “Plus, I figured it would be better for her to
have too many than not enough or she would have to do it all again.”

He opened his mouth, but Josh disappeared around the door.

Kayla jumped off the dresser, drawing his attention. “Zach,
he’s doing his best. He may not show it, but he’s nervous as hell.”

Zach slipped his hands into the pockets of the robe as he
tried to relax his jaw. “And you know this how?”

Kayla placed her hand on his arm. “Come on, Zach, I can read
him as easily as I can read you. You’re scared to death this won’t work and you
won’t be around to save her.”

The knot in his stomach grew, making him wish he hadn’t
asked. “Listen, I haven’t talked to Josh about this, but in case I don’t, if—”

Kayla put her finger against his lips. “Only good thoughts,
Zach. Bea has lots of people to care for her, but she needs you more than she
needs air. So keep your hope alive and get your cute ass back in there and
remind her why she loves that rock-hard body of yours so much.”

He grinned. “You think I’m rock hard?”

She smacked him on the butt. “Definitely, but I prefer
lanky, sinewy muscles to your bulging biceps, honey, so don’t be getting any
ideas.”

He blew her a kiss on his way out the door and didn’t stop
until he reached Bea’s room. Josh met him with needles, pills and a Bud Light.

Zach took a gulp of the beer. “Gee, I love ya, man.”

Josh rolled his eyes before handing Bea a glass of wine.

She wasn’t as high as earlier because she held the quilt
close to hide her nudity where before she had flaunted herself.

She looked past Josh at him. “I missed you. Where’d you go?
I’m not that tired yet.”

If her raised, wiggling brow was an indication, she was
ready for more. “Good, neither am I. I think we could set a world record here.
Too bad we didn’t think of it sooner. We could have had officials from the
Guinness
Book of World Records
here as witnesses.”

Bea’s gaze switched to the darkened window, its drapes wide
open. From the heat that suffused her cheeks, Zach realized the idea of being
watched by strangers turned her on. Wow, his Bea on drugs was wilder than he
ever expected.

He sat on the bed next to her and put his arm around her as
Josh checked her vitals.

She glanced at Josh. “Eh, what’s up, Doc?” Giggling, she
leaned into his shoulder. He’d never seen this side of her. He doubted she’d
ever seen this side of her either.

Josh let go of her wrist. “You’re doing great, Bea. Just
keep humping like rabbits and we might lick this thing yet.”

She burst into laughter and Josh gave Zach a sympathetic
look. “I may have given her a larger dose than she needed.” He paused before
closing the door on them.

Zach frowned, suddenly wondering if Josh had done it on
purpose. But his attention was seized by the hand on his cock.

Bea knelt on the floor, her hands under his robe, her face
leaning toward him as his rock-hard penis rose to meet her descending mouth. To
hell with Viagra, he had Bea.

Bea stretched as light kisses rained down her naked back,
blazing a path to her ass. Hmm, she could wake up like this every day. She
opened one eye to view the clock. 3:38. How could Zach keep going?

As his tongue licked under her butt and moved to her folds,
she moaned, not sure if pleasure or exhaustion were the cause. “Zach?”

He spoke against her clit. “I’m busy at the moment.”

She changed her tone. “Zach.”

He lifted his head away, leaving her folds wet from his
tongue. “Yes.”

“I’m exhausted. Don’t you want to rest?”

He shook his head. “Uh-huh. One more time and then we can
rest. Come on, beautiful, I know you can do it.”

She rolled to her back. “No. I don’t think I can.”

He pulled himself up next to her. He didn’t look good. His
skin was pale and the lines around his mouth were too deep. Even his hair
appeared ragged and limp. Warning bells sounded in her brain, but she couldn’t
grasp why. The stupid fog remained in the back of her head.

Zach brushed the hair from her face. Maybe she looked like
crap too. They’d made love so many times she couldn’t remember the number. It
felt like one long orgasm. Not that she had a problem with that.

She captured his hand in her own. “I don’t know how to tell
you this, but you look like crap.”

He grinned a little, making the lines deepen too much,
scaring her. “Yeah, I feel like crap, but I’m going to make you come one more
time even if it kills me.”

She shuddered. In the back of her mind Zach’s words rang
prophetic, but she couldn’t remember why. “No. You don’t have to make me come
again to prove you love me.” She lifted both hands to cup his face. “I know you
do.”

Zach let her bring his face forward for a gentle kiss. He
nibbled at her lips.

She moved her hands to the back of his neck. “Do I taste
good?”

He pulled away and leaned over her, staring at her pussy.
“You’ll have to tell me.”

His head lowered and his tongue swept deep inside her
thickened entry, causing heady sensations to pulse from there to deep inside.

He lifted his head and pulled her to a sitting position.
Without a word, his mouth descended on hers. His tongue swept across her own. Her
instinct to capture it could not be denied. A strange flavor met her taste
buds, her own liquids. A wave of pure lust flowed through her limbs, but when
Zach shivered, the warning bells went off again.

She ended their kiss and touched his face as another slice
of fear trickled through her brain. “You’re burning up.”

He raised his brows. “You make me hot.”

She scooted out of his arms. “Lie down.”

He shook his head.

Holy heck, did the man have a one-track mind? Why did he
insist on making love again? There had to be a reason. What was it?

He reached for her, but she slid off the bed. “Okay, okay,
we’ll make love again, I promise, but this time I’m in the driver’s seat.” She
changed her tone to stern. “Now, lay your ass down.”

His eyes widened, but his cock jumped before he lay on his
back, his arms behind his head. “As you wish.”

Bea couldn’t believe she had this hunk of a man all to
herself. He loved her and he was hers. An image of her naked in black leather
boots with him tied to the bed jostled her memory and the rush of excitement
that came with it buckled her knees. She knelt on the bed as she contemplated
ropes on the posts. He’d used them on her, it would seem fair was fair.

She perused his strong body from his tight calf muscles to
his overdeveloped pectorals, but her lust lessened as her gaze entwined with
his. The love shining in his bright-green eyes had her swallowing hard. Her
heart hitched.

Zach didn’t grin or speak, just bared his soul in his gaze.

Gently, she covered his body with hers and spoke against his
lips. “I love you.”

His arms encircled her and they shared a tender kiss. She
had to show him how much she loved him.

Zach raised his hand to her cheek and stroked. “I love you
too, Bea. More than you’ll ever know.”

Something in his words, his touch, had her wanting to cry,
but that didn’t make sense. If only the fog in her brain would go away. Anxious
to show him how much she treasured him, she inched her way down his body.

Lovingly, she kissed the stubble on his jaw, the tendons of
his neck, the bulge of his shoulder. Her tongue came into play as she reached
his nipple. She circled the small nub until it hardened tight, its salty taste
from their love play an aphrodisiac. Taking his nipple between her teeth, she
tugged before scraping across its tip.

His hand tightened where it rested on her arm and she could
feel his heartbeat pulse faster.

Pleased to be able to excite him, she pulled the nipple into
her mouth and sucked.

Zach’s chest rose against her lips and she grasped his
shoulders as she worked her tongue on the nub in her mouth. When she let it go,
he relaxed into the bed.

She ran her hands through the hair on his chest, mesmerized
by the ripples of his abdomen as it moved under her touch. With her mouth, she
pulled at the line of hair down the center of his stomach until she arrived at
his thick cock.

She cupped that pleasurable piece of anatomy between her
hands and glanced at Zach’s face. His eyes were closed, his breathing fast as
he waited in anticipation. She wouldn’t disappoint him. Lowering her lips over
his cock, she took as much as she could into her mouth before she surrounded it
with her tongue and slowly sucked upward along his tight skin.

Zach groaned and buried his hand in her hair.

His pleasure fed her own and she continued her attention to
his cock as she lifted his balls. She opened her throat to him, taking him as
deep as she could. He tasted sweet from the whip cream they had used earlier.
His cock moved against her tongue, causing her pussy to tense in response.

Zach’s hand held her still.

She moaned in frustration. She wanted to bring him to his
orgasm.

“Bea.”

His roughened voice stilled her own need.

She loosened her mouth and let him pull her up to lie on top
of him, his hard penis pressing against her inner thigh.

He brought her lips to his and devoured her with his tongue,
his command clear. She belonged to him forever.

The message surrounded her heart. Blissfully, she moved her
hips to position her slick pussy above his tip. With a sigh, she descended, his
cock pushing through her thick folds, her tight walls, deep into her body,
fully, completely, making her his.

He broke the kiss on a whispered word. “Yes.”

That one syllable rebounded through her limbs, fueling her
desire. She pulled her hips up and rode him. Her blood pounded between her legs
as her breaths grew shorter. Sharp shards of pleasure radiated from her pussy
to the rest of her body as she pushed and rubbed harder and harder. Her
nipples, caressed by Zach’s chest hair, added slivers of heat to her already
heated body.

Zach sucked upon her lower lip, teasing her with his tongue,
adding to her stimulation. He lifted his hips and pressed them to her groin.

She arched into him, rubbing her breasts against his hard
chest as she wrapped one hand around his neck. “Zach.”

He gazed at her. “Yes, beautiful?”

“I need you.” She couldn’t help the catch in her voice. The
desire to be closer to him far outweighed her lust.

His jaw tensed. The passion in his eyes caused her own to
rise, but with a desperation she couldn’t understand.

He nodded. “Whatever you need, I will give you.”

He pressed her ass into his hips, helping her stay close.
Bea ached with a need to crawl inside him. Tears slipped from her eyes.

Zach stopped. “Bea, what’s wrong?”

“I don’t know. I just have to touch all of you.”

Zach kissed her cheek. “It’s okay. I’m right here.”

She grasped on to him, pushing her arm underneath him.

He lifted his other arm to hold her around the waist. “I’m
all yours, Bea. Forever.”

She lifted her face to kiss him and poured every ounce of
love she had into the mating of their lips. When he broke away, he gave her a
quizzical look.

She stroked his hair at the back of his neck. She couldn’t
explain how she felt, she simply had to hold on to him.

Zach turned his head and kissed her forearm. “You’re coming
down, sweetheart. Don’t fight it. It’s the drugs Josh gave you. I’m right here.
I won’t go anywhere.”

Her memory returned with the force of a Mack truck and with
it the reason they were making love. Her heart cried out at what must have
occurred. Had he seen her with the other men? She needed to show him how much
he meant to her. She couldn’t lose him.

Zach must have sensed her tension because he began dropping
soft kisses along her cheekbone, causing her mind to relax and her pulse to
accelerate. Without warning, he rolled them over, his cock moving inside her at
the movement.

Having him on top of her calmed her anxiousness. But as his
mouth found her nipple another need increased. She dug her hands into his
shoulders as he teased her hard tip. He left her nipple and gazed into her eyes
as he pulled his hips back and pushed through her pussy to the hilt.

Bea’s world spun out of control. Her memory flooded back as
her body began to peak. Fear pumped her blood as Zach’s cock sent electricity
sizzling through her veins. She grasped his arms to hold herself together while
she rocked into him to meet each deep thrust.

Zach moaned, his pace increased.

Grasping him hard, she rubbed against him, squirming to have
every inch of her skin touched by his, meeting his pounding with her own.

He went rigid and as his cum flooded into her, he threw her
into her own climax. She couldn’t breathe. Wave after wave of pure pleasure
washed over her, starlight twinkling behind her eyelids, his love for her
blanketing her with comfort.

Finally, she gasped for air and eased her hold on him, but
he didn’t lift off her as he usually did. She smirked. He must have been as
affected by their lovemaking as she. The lack of poison in her system had made
her desperate, or maybe as Zach said, the drugs wearing off had colored her
emotions. But she must have had sex with other men and even if she didn’t
remember it, Zach would.

The need to reassure him surfaced hard. She turned her head
and kissed him on the ear. “Zach?”

He didn’t answer.

She smiled. She had worn him out. Pushing on his shoulders,
she shook him. “Zach, I know you’re tired, but can you move a little? I need to
breathe.”

He gave no response.

Dread crept up her spine, feeding her adrenaline. “Zach?” She
pushed him off to the side, his limp cock sliding from between her legs.
Sitting up, she tapped his face. “Zach, wake up. Can you hear me? Zach?”

He lay as still and pale as death. Oh God. She shook her
head. “No. No. Zach, what have you done?”

As denial left her, hysteria built.

She screamed.

* * * * *

Zach heard the whispers first, but the gentle touch on his
cheek had him pushing away the dazed fog of his mind. As he opened his eyes,
his gaze rested on…Josh?

“Hey, look who’s decided to join the living.” Josh set down
his notepad, but not before Zach noticed his hands shook.

Was something wrong? Oh hell, he was in the hospital. He
looked to his right to find the person who had pulled him from his sleep. Bea’s
bloodshot eyes attested to her tears and he grasped her hand. “What’s wrong?”

“What’s wrong?” She wiped her hand across her eyes, but her
voice grew in volume. “What’s wrong? I’ll tell you what’s wrong. You scared the
hell out of me. You lied to me and tricked me and then passed out. I thought
you were in a coma.”

With quick insight, Zach grasped the horror he must have put
Bea through when he’d lost consciousness. But in all honesty, he hadn’t planned
to pass out. He squeezed her hand, but she pulled from his grasp. The motion
left a pit of dread in his stomach as deep as a marsh. “Bea, I’m sorry.”

She stood and started to pace. He noticed Josh had beaten a
hasty retreat. Great, just when he needed the backup. “Bea, listen. I couldn’t
do it. I couldn’t let another man touch you. I would still love you, but it
would have killed a part of me.”

She stopped and stared incredulously at him. “A part? I
almost lost all of you. Damn it, Zach. Never mind the scare you gave me, Josh
aged ten years in the last ten hours.”

“I know, I owe him everything.”

Bea spun around. “And what about me? If you died or even
slipped into a coma, I’d die too. I love you too much to go back to sleeping
with strangers just to stay alive.”

Zach shook his head. Wasn’t she cured? “Bea, even if I did
die, you would still be able to live a normal life. Don’t you see, that’s why I
did it. I’d give up my life if I had to so you could be normal.” A heady
feeling of success rushed through him. “Though I’d much prefer to live it with
you.”

Bea halted in her tracks. “Oh God, Zach.” She ran to him.

He gladly embraced her. She felt so good. Her citrusy smell
enveloped him and filled him with completeness. Yup, now his life was perfect.
He’d finally beat fate. He stroked her hair, loving the texture of its fine
silkiness on his palm. But something nudged his brain, sending fear through his
limbs. Did she finish the cure? “Bea? Did Josh give you the large dose of
antidote he said he would?”

She nodded, but didn’t lift her head to face him, instead
she kept it buried against his chest. Her assurance calmed his initial fear,
but as he held her, he noticed a growing wetness on his hospital gown. “Bea,
what is it?”

After a few moments, she lifted her head. “Josh doesn’t know
if I’m cured yet. He said he can’t know. The only way to be sure is for us to
make love and see how you feel.”
