“Problem?”

“Just the same one I’ve had since we met.”

“Do you say that to all the girls?”

“Nope, just the woman wearing my mama’s ring.”

Brook sucks in a breath, then she grabs my hand and tugs me to the door.

“Thank you, Mary,” she calls, then we’re outside. Her arms snake around my neck and she pulls my face down to hers. “I want you, Landry.”

“Thank fuck.” I kiss her then, lifting her and turning us so I can press her against the building. Probably not the best place for our first real kiss, but right now I don’t give a damn.

She tastes sweet and decadent. She sucks my tongue into her mouth and wraps her legs tighter around my waist.

I trail my lips down her throat and reach that tender spot just beneath her ear. “How wet are you right now?”

“Soaked.”

I let her put her feet back on the ground, then turn and give her my back.

“Piggyback is faster, and I won’t come in my pants. Hop on, Manhattan.”

She giggles and gets onto my back. Her full tits press against my back and it’s blissful torture.

“I want you naked—so naked.”

“Is there a difference between naked and soooo naked?”

“Oh, look who thinks she’s a comedienne now.”

“Just move faster, mountain man, I’m dying to see this piercing of yours.”

Brook

The minute we close our cabin door behind us, I slide off his back. Then he’s turning to face me and pushing me up against the door.

His forehead presses to mine, his breathing labored. “Brooklyn,” he whispers. “I’m so hard for you, darlin, I’m barely holding on by a thread. Let me get myself under control so I can make it good for you.”

“How about we do it like this instead?” I drop to my knees in front of him, grabbing his belt. I unfasten everything, then slowly lower his zipper.

He hisses out a breath, as I slide his boxers and jeans down at the same time. His dick bobs out in front of me. I wrap my hand around his shaft, my fingers not quite meeting. The thick metal hoop pierced through his urethra is just about the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen.

Keeping my eyes on his, I lean forward and lick him straight up his shaft.

“For fuck’s sake, woman. Are you trying to kill me?”

I smile and then suck the head into my mouth. I let my tongue play with the loop of metal, tugging lightly on it.

His fingers thread through my hair.

“Brooklyn, you’re going to destroy me.”

Sucking him further into my mouth, I hollow my cheeks and relax my throat.
