Chosen Prey (15 page)

"You smell so good." He nuzzled her neck and her hair. "Always like sunshine and roses. And woman."

Lyra's body was so sexually charged that every word he said sent more vibrations through her.

He moved his hand between them and slipped his fingers into the folds of her sex.

"Damn, you're wet."

Tingles prickled her skin. Whether from embarrassment, fear, desire, or the feel of him stroking her clit, she wasn't sure. Probably all of it. He thrust two fingers into her core, and she gasped as he caught her off guard. She began to ride his hand instinctively, wanting more than his fingers but taking what he was giving her right now.

She wrapped her palm around his erection and lightly squeezed. Everything about this moment, about this man, was beautiful, and all the horrors of her past evaporated like mist beneath the rising sun.

As she touched him, she marveled at how
he
felt in her hand. Hard steel encased in soft velvet. He closed his eyes and groaned as he pumped his fingers in and out of her and she slid her hand up and down his cock.

Dare opened his eyes and held her gaze. He withdrew his fingers from her channel and grabbed her hand, not letting her caress him anymore. "Don't think I'll last much longer at this rate," he said in a voice so rough it was almost harsh. "It's all I can do to keep from spreading your thighs and making love to you so hard you'll see stars."

More warmth swept through Lyra. "That's what I want." And she did. Oh, how she did.

Dare kissed her long and hard as he grabbed her ass and pulled her tight against him.

His cock was so hard and she was so ready. More liquid pooled between her thighs, and she didn't think she could take much more erotic torture.

The feeling of butterflies going berserk in her belly became stronger as he rolled her onto her back. He knelt between her thighs, grasped his erection in one of his hands, and rubbed her folds with the head of his cock. Lyra trembled beneath him.

This is it. This is it.

Dare took a deep breath and sat back on his haunches, just looking at her for a moment. He reached over to the nightstand, grabbed a packet, got the condom out, then threw the package on the floor. While she watched, she bit her lower lip as he slowly rolled the condom down his cock. Her heart beat faster to know he was going to be inside her, all of him, in just moments.

His expression was so serious when he looked at her again. "Are you a virgin, honey? I don't want to hurt you."

Heat rushed to her cheeks as she nodded. "I—I just need you. I'll be okay."

"I want you to remember this," he said when he placed the head of his cock at the entrance to her core. "I don't want you to ever forget our first time."

"How could I?" she whispered as she slid her hands down his back. "I'm with the one man who's rocking my world."

Dare's jaw tightened and he slowly pushed inside of her.

"Ohmygod, ohmygod." Pain seared her as her gaze met his. "Stop. Just a moment.

Please stop."

He held completely still, his expression filled with concern. "I'm sorry, baby. Do you want to change your mind?"

Lyra shook her head. "No. I'll be okay. I'm ready for more."

Her eyes watered and she bit her lower lip as he inched his erection deeper inside her channel. It hurt so bad she couldn't help a couple of tears from slipping down the sides of her eyes.

When he was fully buried within her, he held still and kissed away her tears. While he moved his lips to hers and gave her a gentle, sweet kiss, her body had time to adjust to his length and girth.

After a few moments he drew away and she smiled. It was starting to feel really good with him inside her. "Do it now. I want it."

He began a slow, even stride, moving her body with every thrust, rocking her world, just like she'd said. It hurt at first, but the beginning sensations of pain became such extreme pleasure that she lost herself to it.

She slipped into a trance. A trance of pleasure, of feeling, of being.

"Look at me." The gruff voice came from above her and she pulled herself back from the Otherworld she'd found herself in for those few moments. "I want to see your eyes while I take you for the first time."

Lyra's whole body was on fire as her gaze locked with Dare's. She squirmed beneath him, then wrapped her legs around him and crossed her legs at her ankles. She wanted him, wanted to keep him close.

Dare grunted as his thrusts became harder and faster and it felt impossibly better and better. He surprised her by raising her legs up and putting them over his shoulders. To her shock and pleasure she felt him even deeper. It felt so good.

Stars started to spark inside her mind, and she found it harder and harder to maintain her focus on Dare's eyes. Her whole body vibrated like it was going to explode. His jaw was tight and he looked like he was gritting his teeth. Sweat rolled down the side of his face and fell onto her breast, and she knew she was going to lose it.

"I'm going to come." His strokes were long, deep, fast, his voice hoarse and tight as her legs clamped him over his shoulders. He brought one of his hands between their bodies and stroked her clit in time with his thrusts. "Come with me."

Tingles erupted where he fingered her into sparks all over her skin, and those stars in her mind became brighter and brighter. She lost focus and couldn't see Dare's eyes any longer. She tilted her head back. Her orgasm coiled so tightly in her belly that it was only going to take a few more strokes of his cock and his fingers, and she'd be gone.

Dare brought his lips to hers and kissed her so hard she felt his teeth against hers. He thrust his tongue into her mouth and fingered her clit harder. His kiss and touch shoved her over the peak, past reason, past thinking. She cried out against his mouth, and when he raised his head she was still crying from the exquisite sensations.

"That's it." He thrust three, four, five more times. "That's it," he barely managed to get out before he shouted, his voice filled with triumph and power.

The sound of his cry made her body throb even more, and she couldn't stop from bucking against him. Dare's cock pulsed inside her channel, and she felt herself grip him tight with every spasm. She didn't want it to end, yet she didn't know if she could take any more.

With one last groan, he lowered her legs from his shoulders and rolled onto his side. He brought her close to him, his thigh hooked over her hip, and her face resting against his chest. His breathing was hard and ragged, and his heart pounded beneath her ear. Her own heart thrummed just as hard and she was having a hard time catching her breath, too. She sucked in the scent of sex, sweat, and testosterone. His body felt slick and warm against hers, and for some reason that made her hot for him again.

Dare squeezed her tight before relaxing his hold, and he seemed almost reluctant to do so. He nuzzled her hair, his chest moving with the breath he took, and he released a deep sigh.

"I've never trusted a man." She swallowed, finding the words hard to speak. "Until you."

He pressed his lips to her forehead. "Thank you for this, for trusting me."

"Thank you for making my first time so special." She smiled. "I feel wonderful inside and out."

Dare cuddled her close to him. "You wore me out, woman. I'm so tired I don't think I could move if I tried."

She gave him a wicked grin as she ran her fingernails down his chest, and her eyes met his. "What about all the other condoms?"

Dare's mouth curved into a smile at Lyra's words. Despite the fact that he felt like every bone in his body had melted, his cock was stiffening. So that was what mind-blowing sex was like.

Lyra ran her finger down his chest and reached up to kiss him lightly. "Hmmmm?"

He responded by rolling onto his back and bringing her with him. She giggled as he brought her on top of him, so that she was straddling him, and his cock was nestled beneath the folds of her pussy. "I can handle all you can dish out." He hoped he could.

What she did to him was incredible. It wasn't just the sex, it was something deeper, more primal, something gut-level.

With a quick movement, he slipped off the condom and disposed of it in the wastebasket between the night-stand and bed.

Lyra pushed herself up by bracing her hands on his chest, then rose up with her palms on her thighs. "What am I going to do with you?" she said as she rocked her folds over his cock. She looked so beautiful, her short red hair tousled, her lips swollen, and her skin pink and moist from perspiration. The smell of her musk about drove him out of his mind.

"I'm going to take you again," he said as he braced his hands on her hips.

She shook her head and grinned. "Not yet, cowboy. I'll let you know when I'm ready to ride."

"Oh yeah?" He slid his hands up to her breasts and cupped them in his palms. He liked how they were large and overflowing. "Maybe this cowboy is ready for a ride now."

Lyra tipped her head back and moaned at the feel of his hands on her breasts. When he pinched both of her nipples she gave a little cry, and more moisture flooded from her and onto his cock nestled against her folds. She had to take control of the situation.

She leaned forward and met his gaze as she brought her hands up and placed her palms over his strong fingers. "Stop distracting me."

He slid his hands from her breasts and settled them at her waist. "From what?"

"From this." She reached up and brushed his hair from his forehead. "I want to touch you."

Dare's grip on her waist tightened as she trailed her fingers down the side of his face, over his coarse stubble, and to his firm lips. He took one of her fingers into his mouth and sucked, causing her to gasp in surprise and pleasure. She pulled her finger from his mouth and trailed it down his jaw, the wetness of it mixing with the sweat of his skin.

She leaned forward and her nipples rubbed against his chest. Inhaling his incredible scent, she moved closer yet and pressed her lips to his face and began flicking her tongue along the same trail her fingers had taken. His skin was salty and she said, "Mmmmmm, I love how you taste."

Dare grabbed her ass cheeks and squeezed as her lips met his. She was glad he let her take the lead as she nipped at his lower lip, then slid her tongue into his mouth. She lightly sucked on his tongue, and he squeezed her ass tighter, as if restraining himself. He moved his mouth in time with hers, a gentle kiss that she felt ripple throughout her body. It made her want to have him inside her again, but she wanted to play, first. She was a little sore, yes, but the pleasure far outweighed what small amount of pain she had felt.

She moved her lips from his and kissed his skin along his jaw to the curve of his neck and down to the scar on his shoulder. She pressed her lips softly against it and raised her head to look at him. "Another macho wound?"

Dare's features darkened and she knew at once she'd hit on a sore subject. "From my days on the police force," he said, and she sensed he didn't want to talk about it anymore.

Lyra reached up to kiss him again, wanting to wash away the memory of whatever painful experience had caused that wound.

She reached over to the nightstand and took one of the foil packets in her hand. As she lightly trailed one corner of the packet down his chest to his abs, she gave him what she hoped was a sexy grin. "Ready for a ride, cowboy?"

The rumble in his chest vibrated through her fingers. She brought the condom packet to her mouth and caught the edge with her teeth. With her eyes focused on his, she slowly ripped opened the package, taking her time, making him wait.

He narrowed his eyes, and his fingers dug into her ass cheeks. "Hurry up, woman."

Lyra cocked a brow. "Woman?"

Dare growled and she grinned, but she slipped the rubbery soft condom out of the package and tossed the foil onto the floor. She scooted back so that she straddled his thighs and she had access to his very erect cock. He had to release her ass but stroked her thighs with his fingertips.

Intent on teasing him as much as she could, Lyra placed the condom on the head of his erection and rolled it down as slowly as possible.

He groaned and grabbed handfuls of her hair. "If you don't stop teasing me, I'm going to buck you off and fuck you my way."

The thought of him taking her like that, and the way he said "fuck" sent a thrill through her belly. "Later, cowboy," she said.

Dare released his grip on her hair as she rose up and positioned herself just over the head of his cock. Her eyes locked with his as she slowly eased down his length and took him deep inside her.

She held still for a moment, unable to move.
Oh. My. God
. She closed her eyes for a moment as his cock filled her hard and deep. He stretched her so big and she felt the bite of soreness again. Yet she could come just from the feel of him inside her.

"Lyra…" he said in a husky tone.

She opened her eyes, arched her back, and started riding him. The sensations were wild as she moved up and down on his huge erection, trying to keep a slow and even pace. He reached up and pinched her nipples, and she gasped as the thrill of his touch went straight to where they were connected.

Lyra rose up and down at a faster pace. She was taking him so deep. He had a tight hold on her hips and he began bucking to meet her movements. Her eyes met his again and he had a fierce expression, his jaw taut as he slammed up into her. He put his thumb on her clit and stroked.

Her orgasm began to swirl within her like a tornado the harder he touched her clit. She braced her hands against his hard chest, her arms and legs quivering, as she continued to ride him. That tornado raged, swept her up, and threw her into the storm. She cried out as her body felt the thunder and she saw the lightning.

With a sob she collapsed against his chest and he moved his finger from her clit. "God, that was wonderful."
