“You are the one thing in this world that reminds me of why I’m here. Of why I do what I do.” Gritty words carved the air and strummed over my spirit.

Yet he thought that was the reason he couldn’t have me.

“And you make me feel alive.” It gushed free. A torrent that had been trapped for too long. “Seen and whole and real. Like what I think and what I want is important. Like it counts.”

Severity pinched his brows. “You are the most important thing in this world to me. The most important thing in my life.”

I could see that he wanted to say more, but he distracted himself by fluttering his fingertips over my lips. A faint tapping that drummed the need higher.

His attention dipped between my eyes and my mouth, and if it was possible, he hardened further in my hand.

“You gonna suck me, Little Apple? Think I might die if I don’t get in that mouth.”

“We wouldn’t want that now, would we?” How I found any jesting, I didn’t know, but some kind of rush came over me.

Euphoria, I supposed. Wreaked by the pleasure he’d shown.

His chuckle was raw. “That’s likely where I’m going to end up, Elena, but it’s going to be worth it to get the chance to experience this. Now open up and show me what you’ve got.”

At the steely command, a flush rushed back to the surface of my skin. A roughened scrape of desire skimming my flesh.

I was more than happy to oblige, but that didn’t mean I had any idea about what I was doing.

The only prudent choice was diving in.

I stroked him and gave him a valiant lick. Gliding my hand up his length as I flattened my tongue over the small slit at the tip of his dick.

Tasting his saltiness and something else that was wholly Trevan.

Charred oak and butterscotch and sex.

All rugged, menacing man.

He jolted. “Fuck me, baby. Gonna embarrass me like you did yesterday. One touch out of you, and I’m already about to crack. How’s it you do this to me?”

Okay, so maybe I did have half an inkling on how to please him, and it made me feel powerful.

I edged higher, stroking him while I played my tongue over the ball at the base of his piercing, then ran it fully around his head.

Trevan hissed a guttural sound. “Lena, baby. Shit. Driving me out of my mind. No sanity left. Completely and utterly mad over you.”

Every molecule in my being glowed, and I took his words as approval and wrapped my mouth fully around him.

I hesitated for one second before I just went for it and sucked him down.

No reason to dither here.

I felt like I was swallowing around granite as I dove in. My jaw was stretched so wide I thought it might snap, and I gagged a little when he hit the back of my throat.

I gripped onto the outside of his hips for support and struggled to breathe through my nose as Trevan clamped his big hands onto the sides of my head.

“You’re trying to do me in, aren’t you? Wreck me. No one else in the world who could do it.”

Delight fluttered through me at his words.

His thick thighs strained as he held me there, his fingers quivering where they barely dipped into my hair.

I slowly withdrew, riding all the way back to his tip and readjusting, before I dove back in.
