Alive at Night (Wildflower, #1)

by Amelie Rhys

“Julian…” I didn’t know what to say. But that was okay. Julian leaned forward with his pants half undone to skim his hands over my skin. And as soon as we touched, I knew there was no going back tonight. No going back, not ever.

Everything in me strained toward his touch, feeding off it. I felt it in Julian, too. He climbed onto the bed over me, needing to touch more of my body than he could reach. “Fuck. So beautiful.” He cupped my breasts in his palms, squeezing experimentally. Like the rest of me, there was more than enough to grab. I’d always been self-conscious about it, but not right now. Not with how Julian curved his hands over me so reverently. “You are so beautiful.”

“Do you have any idea how badly I want you?” I lifted my hips so they grazed his. My bare skin against his unbuttoned pants, the fabric brushing roughly over delicate flesh. I inched higher, and Julian’s hard cock pressed between my legs. “I have a pretty good idea, yeah.” Julian growled, partly in frustration and partly in heady arousal, as he flung himself off me, landing on the side of the bed. He slipped

pants and underwear to the floor, stealing all my attention down south. Now I had a really good idea of how badly Julian wanted me. Noticing the direction of my attention, his gruff voice cut in before I could have any doubts. “It’ll fit perfectly, baby. Just fucking perfectly.” I looked up at him from beneath my lashes. “Show me.” “God, Juniper. You do things to me,”

“I can’t wait to finally fuck your pretty little cunt.”

lips captured mine repeatedly as the bed swallowed us whole. Only a dusky light surrounded us beneath his sheets as we tangled in limbs and kisses. Julian’s fingers wove into my hair, desperately holding me to him. I started bucking my hips against him shamelessly. The touches, the kisses, the press of his body against mine. It wasn’t enough. I’d never felt this aching pressure before. An emptiness replaced the high he gave me on the couch, and I knew what I needed to fill it. Him. All of him.

The feeling of his harsh breaths was my only warning before he sucked one nipple into his mouth, causing an eruption of heat. His tongue swirled over it, flicking, and the ache within me blossomed into something nearly unbearable. Crying out, I arched my back, handing myself over to Julian.

“Fuck, Juni,” he mumbled, and I wound my fingers into his hair. My other hand found his cock and wrapped around it, stroking slowly. Julian’s fingers gripped my wrist, stilling

“Careful with that hand there, Lily,” he grunted, still nestled in my tits, and I couldn’t withhold my grin. “It feels too fucking goo...

Glancing at our entwined hands, he noted how my body vibrated. “Excited? Or nervous?” He searched my face for the truth. “Both,” I admitted before biting down on a groan as Julian’s bare chest brushed mine. The slight sensation against my already aroused nipples felt like torture.

“I’m on birth control,” I whispered, worrying my lip as I watched him. “Just so you know.”

“Good to know,” Julian muttered, a slight smirk skewing his lips as he rolled back over, grabbed my hips, and tipped me up on top of

him. “But I don’t mind using protection if it makes you feel better.” I gasped as I straddled Julian, his erection rutting between my legs. I nodded, admittedly relieved that he’d said that. Julian didn’t seem to give a shit about the condom. He agreed absently, eyes darkening as he took me in.

Julian stroked his cock, running a knuckle over my clit. Meanwhile, he tore open the condom package with his teeth before rolling it over his length with his other hand. I watched, fascinated and painfully aroused. “You ready to take me?” His voice grew thick as he watched and waited for my response. “Me?” I repeated.

before—not me. “You,” Julian confirmed, his breathing ragged as he plucked something from the sheets beside him. “I had an idea, and I bought something for you. Because it’ll kill me if I cause you even a prick of pain. Do you trust me?” “Yes,” I

But my only discomfort was how my body felt like it would burn up if he didn’t touch me soon. And when Julian hesitated, teasing the vibrator right above where I wanted it most, I wiggled on his lap. “Julian.”

relief, he dragged the toy up his length, releasing a little moan that I found unbearably hot. When he got to the tip, Julian spun the vibrator around in his hand, and that was when I realized it didn’t look anything like the one I kept in my bedside table.

Two prongs formed a ring, branching out from where they met on either side to create a vibrating landing spot, the two little balls on the end buzzing as Julian held it in place around his tip. “Come here,” he breathed, and I obeyed without thinking, lining his erection up. And as soon as it was in position, Julian pressed the vibrator right into my clit, causing my cries to saturate the air. “Feels good, doesn’t it?”

vision swam momentarily before I found Julian’s heated stare again. “Focus on that as you take me, baby.” Julian’s attention flicked between my face and where we were joined as I slowly lowered onto him. He held the vibrator in place, letting pleasure racket through my body as I sank, losing the ability to breathe as he filled me. Finally. Oh, God, finally. This was what I’d been missing, this feeling of wholeness, of completion.

spot. I experimented with rocking forward, grinding my clit over it. Oh, hell. Meanwhile, Julian gripped my hips, fingertips digging in like he was trying to hold on to something. Control, likely. If his expression was any indication. “See? Perfect. I’ve never felt anything this good in my entire fucking life, Juniper,” he rasped. “So goddamn wet and warm. You’re killing me here.” I couldn’t help but smirk down at him. “Good.”

At least until I lifted up and slid back down his length, causing a rough curse to explode from his lips. Oh, I loved that. I loved that I had that effect on him and could drive Julian this wild. Every little movement sent me careening toward a spiral. Every roll of my hips resulted in cascading jolts of pleasure. Every rock caused the vibrator to rub over my clit while Julian stroked something deep inside me. My lips parted in awe, eyes rolling back. Unbelievable—it was unbelievable, and I was left eating every single one of my words from earlier.

Julian knew it, too. His eyes roamed my face as I experienced pure bliss for the first time, and satisfaction dripped into every one of his features. “Ride that cock, love.” His grip tightened on me as he helped m...

His praise washed over me, empowering me to ride him harder. I thought I’d feel too exposed being on top like this, but I reveled in Julian’s burning hot stare. His attention made me feel alive. More desired a...

down my front, cupping my breasts and toying with my nipples until Julian groaned, his bottom lip sliding between his teeth. “I’m never going to recover from this,” he said, his husky voice nearly...

growl, Julian grabbed me by the nape of my neck and pulled me lower so he could kiss me properly, and then he held me there while he pistoned his hips up into mine. I cried out from the intensity of the new, jaw-dropping position, and sparks of heat built one after another until I was burning all over.

“Julian!” I shook, struggling to come down from my high when the vibrator still pulsed between us. “Oh my God, oh my God.” My vision was stilted, but I made out Julian’s cocky grin as he gently urged me off him. His touch was tender, his fingertips gliding over my skin in reassuring caresses. But I frowned as he left my body. He was still hard. Really hard. And I didn’t miss his muffled moans as he slipped the vibrator off his cock, clicking it off and tossing it aside. He didn’t finish.

“I know you can handle more,” he said gruffly before checking my reaction for confirmation. “Can’t you, Juni baby?” I nodded, still trying to catch my breath. He needed more, and I wanted to give it to him. Hell, I wanted more. Julian caught my chin, forcing my lips to part with his thumb. “Say it.” “I can handle more,” I said, my voice wispy as I ignored the burning between my legs.

“I know you can. Because you match me in every fucking way.” I reached up, dragging my fingers down his chest and making him shiver. “Give it to me, Jules.”

“It’s my turn now,” he grunted, keeping his gaze steady while aligning himself between my legs again. He sat back on his haunches, allowing an unobstructed view of him entering me. “When you come this time, it will be because of my cock and my cock alone.”

inside me with one swift stroke. I felt a slight twinge of pressure, but it was overpowered by the euphoric sensation of being filled again. I arched back, crying out his name. A wickedness worked its way onto Julian’s face as he retreated just enough to plunge into me harder.

writhed up against him. His eyes dropped, studying how his cock slid in and out until he grabbed both of my legs and threw them around his wa...

“Tell me again that you can handle it,” he whispered. “I can handle it,” I assured him. “I want it.” Julian nodded, taking my breath away with his beautifully intense expression before driving into me again. My breasts rocked with every mind-numbing thrust, grazing Julian’s broad chest. His hair hung over his face, all his features ticking as he continued to hold on to some sort of control.

Fuck control. I raked my fingers down his back, tipping my hips up to meet his, and Julian lost it. “Fuck, you’re so—”

“You know this little virgin pussy belongs to me now, right? It’s mine, Juniper.” “Yours, Julian,” I gasped.

“No one else’s.” “No one else’s.” An intelligible sound ripped from my throat between my quick pants. “There’s never been anyone else.” “Oh, baby.” Julian dropped his head to mine. Sweat dripped off his forehead, mixing with mine. But I didn’t care. My entire body was slick, sliding against his as the world slipped away. It was only him and me. His rough gasps and my tiny whimpers. His hard body and my soft one. His racing heart and my full one. “Never anyone else,” he breathed, almost like a question. Like he wanted more reassurance. I shook my head. “Never.” “That’s my girl.” I felt the rumble of his voice everywhere. It rattled in my chest. “Now, come for me one more time, love.”

“I don’t—” I swallowed past the dryness in my throat. “I don’t think I—” “Yes, you can.” Julian smacked his hips into mine harder as if to prove a point. “You told me you could handle it, ...

warning, I found my release. It was different. It was blindingly hot, blossoming from a part of me I didn’t realize existed. As I screamed, it washed over me like a heat wave before settling in my bones. My body shook and shook with the intensity of it, pulsing with a beat that Julian controlled as he gave one final thrust. He cried out, body trembling, before finding my lips and kissing me through his climax. This kiss was brutally rough at first, his teeth scraping over my lips, unrestrained. But it softened as we both melted into each other. Tenderness seeped into the moment, taking me by surprise. “Good girl,” he whispered, trailing his lips down. He pressed his mouth to every inch of skin he could find, kissing me into a blissful stupor. “You did so well, Juni.”
