My Favorite Mistake (19 page)

When he plunged his tongue inside me, my body jerked in response to the icy fire racing through my muscles. After teasing me mercilessly, he found my sensual switch and

worked it with his tongue until I clenched my fists in the bedspread, murmuring his name, begging for release. He moaned against my clit to escalate the vibrations, launching me to an orgasm so powerful, that even in the throes of the intense spasms, the possibility of a health implication crossed my mind—a burst vein, a permanent muscle contraction, a heart attack.

But happily, I lived to reach for his waistband and unzip his jeans, feeling another surge of desire when I freed his enormous erection. He groaned, then sucked in a sharp

breath when I pushed down his soft cotton boxers to cradle his sex in my hands.

I had hinted—okay,
bragged—
to my friends at Redford’s massive size. I had dreamed of his nude body countless times, had conjured up his image for dozens of erotic sessions alone and—I’m not proud to admit—when in bed with other men. But when I saw and felt his rigid, straining shaft, I was awed al over again…thick and long, with an enormous tip, already shiny with pre-come. I dipped my head for a taste, but Redford stopped me with a groan.

“Don’t think I don’t want you to,” he gasped. “But I’m so hot for you right now, I won’t last two seconds. And I want to be inside you…the first time.”

A pang of longing struck me low and hard. I nodded my agreement, then almost panicked. “Do you have protection?”

He grinned sheepishly. “At the risk of seeming presumptuous, I came prepared.”

At the moment, I didn’t care about his motivation for bringing condoms, I was just weak with relief that he’d brought them. He retrieved one from his wal et, then handed it to me.

With him standing in front of me seated on the edge of the bed, I rol ed it on careful y, conscious of his size and our safety. Then reached down to caress his velvety sack and the sensitive ridge beneath—things I’d never done to any other man. He clenched my shoulders in a long moan, then urged me back on the bed. He fol owed me, stretching out on top of me, bracing himself with his arms. The sensation of ful -body contact with him almost overwhelmed me—and I knew there was so much more to come.

He kissed me hard, slanting his mouth over mine, delving his tongue deep, sharing my essence with me. He captured my hands, entwining our fingers, and pinned them to the

bed over my head. Our bodies were slick with perspiration, and the musk of his maleness only fueled my desire. “Now, Redford…now.”

He shifted his hips, easing his erection between my thighs. His jaw was clenched with restraint as he found my entrance and pushed in slowly, one breathtaking inch at a time,

until he was ful y sheathed in my body. It was an amazing feeling, to be so fil ed, for every centimeter of my slick channel to be stimulated at once. I squeezed his fingers between mine and contracted my inner muscles around him.

“Oh, Denise,” he groaned. “Oh, God, that feels…soooo…good.”

He flexed his hips, making tiny thrusts that prodded an untapped spot deep inside me. Almost immediately, the waves of a powerful orgasm began to build, radiating from my

womb. I flailed as the tension in my body mounted. His thrusts intensified—longer, deeper, faster. Our moans mingled as the sensations ratcheted higher. I climaxed in a sudden explosion of color and light, and sank my teeth into his shoulder to stifle my cries. His shuddering release came a split second after mine, his face contorted in pleasure-pain, my name on his lips.

Our “little death” coincided exactly with the death of the twin bed. One lower corner fel to the floor, giving us a good bounce on the box springs, then the post fel over with a thud.

We col apsed into each other laughing, our skin flushed and hot to the touch and wet with exertion. “Looks like we’l be sleeping in the other bed,” he muttered.

Then he rol ed me over on top of him and exhaled noisily. “That,” he murmured, “was amazing.”

I sighed against his chest, feeling languid and blissful, my body stil pulsing from the pleasure he’d given me. “I have a confession to make.”

He tensed. “What?”

“I almost got off while I was riding that horse today.”

Two seconds of dead silence was split open by his howl of laughter.

I swatted at his chest. “It’s not that funny.”

“Yes, it is,” he said, whooping. “No wonder you wanted to get down from there so fast.”

“It’s your fault.”

“How?”

“You goaded me into riding that beast.”

He emitted a low growl. “If I’d known what was going on up there, I would’ve made old Reggie gal op.”

“Gee, thanks for not making me feel like an idiot.”

He laughed. “Don’t be so hard on yourself. I’ve heard of it happening before.”

“You have?”

“Wel , only with extraordinarily horny women.”

“Oh, you!” I pushed up to move away, but he captured my wrist.

“Where do you think you’re going?”

“To take a shower.”

“Not without me, you’re not.”

Warmth filtered through my chest as he pushed to his feet and pul ed me into the bathroom. He closed the door and pinned me against the door. “But first, I have to do something that I’ve been dying to do since I got here.”

Ful of female pride, I grinned. “I thought we just did that.”

He laughed. “Yes, but there’s one more thing.”

He reached behind my neck and gently, ever so gently, he released my hair from its clasp and pushed his hands into it, pul ing it forward around my shoulders. “Beautiful,” he

breathed.

I couldn’t speak. The feelings wel ing up in my chest…I didn’t even want to think about what they might mean.

He kissed me lightly. “You like the water hot, don’t you?”

I nodded, inordinately pleased he remembered.

While he turned on the water and adjusted the temperature, I leaned against the vanity, enjoying the view of his lean backside and powerful hamstrings. And the treasure on the other side…
sigh.
Lust pumped through my body with such force that I pressed a fist to my mouth to regain control. This man brought out the worst in me.

Out of the corner of my eye, I caught sight of my engagement ring on the vanity where I’d left it. With much effort, I pushed down the spike of guilt, and when Redford turned

around, I reached out and flipped off the light.

A few seconds later his chuckle reverberated in the tiled room. “It’s a little late for shyness, don’t you think, Denise?”

Seizing a deliciously wicked opportunity, I pushed off the vanity, felt my way over to him and pressed my breasts into his warm back. “I thought we could take a shower in the

dark.”

He gave a low laugh of compliance and we climbed under the spray together.

When one sense is taken away, the other senses truly do become more keen. With the door closed, the windowless room was completely dark, and suddenly, I could feel the

smooth surface of the tub beneath my feet, the softness of the country water splashing over my face, the cal used tips of Redford’s hands caressing my bottom.

I wrapped my arms around his waist and flicked my tongue over his nipples, reveling in the saltiness of his skin. I felt around the wal until I found a soft loofah and what felt like a new bar of soap. I lathered the loofah and scrubbed Redford’s back in large, massaging circles, applying as much pressure as I could.

“Ooh, that’s great,” he moaned.

The acoustics in our little cocoon were wonderful, magnifying our noises. Methodical y, I worked the loofah over his shoulders and down his arms, then down to his lower back

and hips. I turned him around slowly and massaged the lather onto his chest, ignoring for the time being his erection prodding my stomach. He submitted to my ministrations, murmuring approval as I moved across his stomach and hip bones, then moved down to his thighs. I knelt to better feel my way down the fronts of his legs, then handed him the loofah and the soap.

Stil kneeling, I gently washed his cock with my hands, massaging and stroking him clean. Then I took the velvety tip into my mouth, eliciting a gasp from Redford. The water spil ed over my hair and face as I pleasured him with my mouth, taking in as much of his length as I could accommodate, stroking the base of him with my fingers.

With a guttural groan, Redford stopped me, lifted me to my feet and whispered, “Your turn.” He moved behind me and began to massage my neck and shoulders. I sighed in

appreciation, planting my hands against the shower wal , al owing the spray to wash over my face. While he moved the loofah over my back, he slid his hand around to massage my breasts. It was ecstasy, feeling so many sensations and textures at once—and knowing that with Redford, the best was yet to come.

He worked the loofah down my back and over my hips, while sliding his other hand down my stomach and into the curls between my thighs. “Mmm, ohhh, yesssss.”

“You like?” he whispered.

“Umm-hmm.”

He slipped a finger inside me from behind. “You like?” he whispered.

“Ummm-hmmm.” I contracted around him, and he pressed forward. The man knew how to push my button, from both sides. I could feel another orgasm coming on and gave in

to it, brought to higher heights with every stroke at his urging in my ear. When one wave subsided, another crashed through my body, vibrating me down to my bones. At last, when I was too weak to stand, Redford supported me with one hand and turned off the shower with the other.

Unfortunately, I slipped and threw him off balance, too. I could feel us going down and grabbed for the shower curtain, which came crashing down with us, but helped to break

our fal .

“Are you okay?” he asked.

“Fine,” I moaned. “You?”

“Yeah, I think so.”

I started giggling. “So much for showering in the dark.”

We both laughed until we were limp, then wrapped towels around ourselves and went back to the other room, where we rubbed each other down.

Of course, the rubbing led to other touching, and the touching lead to kissing, and the kissing led to us concluding that both the crippled bed and the other twin bed were simply too smal .

“We can push them together,” I suggested, and Redford agreed. But when they were about two feet apart, his eyes lit up.

“What?” I asked.

He moved to stand between the beds, then urged me up, to straddle the beds—to straddle him. I grinned, then looped my arms around his neck and whispered naughty things

in his ear until his erection was so stiff, I could have impaled myself on him. Instead, I leveraged myself on the two beds and lowered myself on him bit by thril ing bit as he nuzzled my breasts.

The position was mind-blowing, matching up our boy and girl parts perfectly, al owing Redford to reach my highest secret places, and providing enough frontal friction that

another orgasm for me was only a matter of time. Our hands were free to roam, and best of al : we could look into each other’s eyes.

Redford had the sexiest eyes—endlessly deep and expressive. I could tel every time he reached a new pleasure plateau. When my body began to tremble with the onset of a

powerful climax, he curled his hand around the nape of my neck and brought my face up to his.

“I want to see you come,” he said. “I want to see your face, see how I make you feel.”

His words sent me soaring over the edge, my already sensitized erogenous zones screaming with release. I clung to him while spasms racked my body. He uttered a long,

quaking groan and picked me up, climaxing with my arms and legs wrapped around him like a vise. It was a religious experience.

When our bodies quieted, we found that we had somehow traveled several feet away from the bed. He looked for a place to lower me, and we almost made it to the couch. My

dismount was wobbly and I hooked a floor lamp on my way down, sending it crashing to the floor, crushing the shade and shattering the bulb.

We were trashing Kenzie and Sam’s place…but I knew if anyone would understand, they would.

We decided to sleep where we fel , on the couch. My body was fatigued beyond words, but my mind wouldn’t shut down so easily. I lay with my head on Redford’s chest and

listened as his heart quieted, then fel into a steady sleep rhythm. Slowly, like a leaky dyke, my troubles seeped through the sex-haze I had immersed myself in for the past couple of hours, until I was saturated in shame.

What had I done? Had sex with a man I had no intention of having a relationship with—and every indication that he felt the same. Hadn’t he thanked me for filing the annulment

papers? For the second time, we had been brought together on a whim, enjoyed each other’s bodies and would separate.

Except he would go back to the life he’d planned for himself without breaking stride, while the life that I’d planned for myself—with Barry—had been compromised. What was I

thinking? I had a
ring.
And I had a wedding dress, assuming Cindy managed to outbid SYLVIESMOM. Barry was in L.A., slaving away to build his career, to make a better life for both of us, and I was…here.

Naked with the man I’d married, then annul ed myself from. Naked with my biggest mistake. Again.

A shiver passed over my body, the chil in the room seeking out the moist, naughty parts of me that stil sang from Redford’s touch. Unable to lie stil any longer, I eased off the couch to make my way toward the bathroom. A few steps later, something sliced into the bottom of my foot, sending fire shooting up my leg. I cried out, and Redford was awake and on his feet before I could take another step.

“What happened?” he said, alarm in his voice.

I limped toward the bathroom. “I stepped on glass from the lightbulb…be careful.”

He skirted the broken glass and fol owed me. “Let me take a look at it.”

“No, that’s okay,” I said, fighting back tears…as much for the pain radiating in my foot as for the situation I’d landed myself in. “Just clean up the glass.”
