Kindle Notes & Highlights
She walks like a predator stalking its prey. Each movement is laced with deliberate confidence. It’s so fucking sexy.
“Take this so you don’t freeze before we make it back to land.” “I don’t need—” “You can keep fighting me.” “I’m not—” “Just don’t be cold while you’re doing it.”
“I promise, next time you’re wet around me, I’ll make sure it’s because of something you’ll enjoy.”
This woman is all-consuming and painfully frustrating.
Her scolding stare is catastrophic and so fucking beautiful.
“I can show you quite a few uses for my ties that I know you would enjoy.”
“Don’t kid yourself, Navarro, dancing would wrinkle that suit.” He steps closer, only a couple of inches between us. “If my clothes bother you so much, all you have to do is ask, and I’ll let you take them off me.”
“Let’s get one thing straight.” His voice spills into me. “When I kiss you again, you’ll remember every single fucking second of it.” I gasp, but he continues, his free hand steadying me. “I promise that each one of your moans, your breaths, will pour out of you willingly. Because I know you want me as much as I need you.”
My eyes finally land on mint. “Who puts mint in their coffee?” “I wasn’t sure which one you liked the most, so I bought them all,” Luca replies. I gasp. Which flavor I like the most? He bought. Every. Flavor?
Avery could ask me to roast coffee beans by hand, and I would simply ask her for how long.
“Do you want me to kiss you, Avery?” I need to kiss you, Ave. “No,” she whispers. That must be her favorite word for me.
“Want some?” Luca dives the spoon back into the airy cake. “Yes,” I mumble under my breath. My heartbeat pounds in my ears. “Cake.” He hovers the dessert in front of me. “Do you want some cake?” “Yes,” I say. “Cake.”
“How many more examples will it take for you to realize I remember everything about you?” he says. My heartbeat quickens. “Every ordinary and extraordinary piece of you, Avery, has a home within me.”
“You like big things, Avery?” “Yes.” Wait. Did I say that out loud? He chuckles. “Good.”
“Will you ever stop trying to fight me?” “I doubt it,” I admit. He smiles. “Good.”
I rattle my brain for the memory. “Wait, so you knew I lived over forty blocks away?” He nods, causing me to blush. “I would walk all of New York with you, Ave.”
Finally, I reach her mouth and look down at my goddess drenched from the thundering summer rain. “Avery, you’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.”
“Jam it in,” I whisper impatiently. She peers at me under her dark lashes. “Hey, it just needs a little warm-up.” “Don’t worry, I know all about warming up,” I assure her, and her cheeks flush even more. “Oh.”
“Don't forget to breathe, Ave,” I say, my voice saturated with demand. She complies. “Such a good girl you are, when you actually listen to me.”
“Can I taste you, Ave?”
“Can I?” I ask again. “Yes.” She looks up at me. “Yes, what? I’ve never known you to be at a loss for words.” “Yes, I want you to taste me.” Her voice comes out raw, demanding in a way I haven’t heard before. Music to my fucking ears.
Avery is pliable under my touch, and I fucking love the way she relaxes into my guiding movements like when we danced together.
The way her body lights up at my touch is euphoric.
I’ve never been with a woman who required so much of me as she rode my mouth. I’m obsessed with every fucking minute of it.
“Whatever you ask of me, I will give you,” I promise. Her moans form into screams of pleasure. “Over, and over, and over again.”
“What about you?” “When I get to have you, Avery, it’ll be because you’re begging for me.” Her eyes light up with amusement, and she curls her bottom lip, which is plumper than the top one, beneath the firm clench of her teeth. “Just so you know, I don’t beg.” “We’ll see about that.” I plant a tender kiss on her nose,
“Luca?” Her voice is so gentle, the nuzzle of her forehead warming every inch of my insides. I slump into the bed beside her, pulling the colorful sheets over our bare flesh. “Hmm?” “This may be my favorite game.” I smile at the words and pull her closer to me. “Mine too.”
“I didn’t realize you were such a big softie.” I tease. “Only with you,” he says plainly, as though the truth doesn’t surprise him.
“I like it when you misbehave,” I say, carrying her out of the closet and into the bedroom. “But I’m going to truly love making you obey.”
Avery is needy, needy for me, and there’s never been a demand I was so eager to satisfy.
Her eyes bulge at the new restraint. “I’ve never done this before,” she whispers. “Me either.” I’ve never wanted to ruin one of my precious ties, but I would burn my entire closet down for her. “Only with you. Do you trust me, Ave?” Her free hand relaxes into mine. “I want this.”
My gorgeous woman is splayed out before me, needy and at my mercy.
Those familiar loud gasps fill our bedroom, and it’s fucking music to my ears.
“You talk way too much, Navarro.” A blaze lights up her eyes, tempting me. She’s so alluring in her restraints. I don’t fucking know how I’m going to last inside of her. “And you seem to fucking love it.” I smile.
“Please, Luca.”
“You say please so well.” He smiles.
His glazed eyes return to mine. “Say my name, Ave. I love it when you say my name.” “Luca,” I moan. “Just like that.” His voice rumbles through me.
“Harder.” I wince as Luca fills the depth of me again and again. “I should’ve known you’d be as demanding when I fucked you.” Luca pinches my bottom lip with his teeth. “You were quite needy when you rode my face.” The words heat my cheeks. “And I should’ve known you wouldn’t be able to shut up.” “You want it, cariño.” He smiles. “I can see how fucking wild it makes you knowing I’m obsessed with your pussy.” I do want it.
Instead, I whisper into his lips, “Show me how obsessed you really are.”
“Good fucking girl, Ave.” The grip of his fingers tighten. “Look at you, taking all of me like I was made for you.”
