He Bought My Nights in the Dark, and I Hated Him by Day novel · Chapter 6 of 24

Chapter 6: The Christmas Ships

His hand came down over my eyes just as the first boat turned the point.

"Keep them shut," he said against my ear. "I'm not asking."

I was sitting between his knees in the tub on the back deck, in water as hot as I could stand.

The cold November night was on my shoulders.

He had killed every light on the dock for the evening, and the house behind us was black.

Out on the lake the Christmas Ships were coming.

I could hear their engines, a low thump across the water, and under that, voices.

Red and green came through his fingers anyway, so bright I could feel it on my eyelids.

"Don't look," he said.

"I'm not."

"Good."

His other hand slid up my thigh under the water.

I had been waiting for it since the driver unlocked the gate.

It was the third night of the window.

I had spent the afternoon at the loft with my hands in a torn crab net and my mind in a hot tub.

His fingers parted me, slowly, and the water made everything slick and heavy.

I leaned back against his chest and felt him hard against my back, and I moaned.

"Quiet," he said. "Sound carries on the water."

"Then make me quiet."

He took the lobe of my ear between his teeth and bit down, not gently.

My back arched off his chest, and the water slopped against the rim.

His mouth went down my neck to my shoulder, kissing and biting, and his free hand came around and filled itself with my breast.

He rolled my nipple between two fingers until I was twisting against him.

I reached behind me under the water and found his cock, hard and hot against the small of my back.

I wrapped my hand around it and stroked him, slowly, up and down.

He shuddered under my touch.

"Careful," he said.

"No," I said.

"You'll make me forget the rule."

"What rule?" I asked.

"The one where I let you come first."

"Then let me," I said.

His hand slid down my belly again, and I forgot what I was going to say.

He pushed two fingers inside me.

I bit my own lip, and a sound came out through my nose that I could not stop.

His thumb found my clit and rubbed it in small, steady circles.

The water lapped at the rim of the tub, and a brass band started up somewhere on the boats.

My hips began to move against his hand.

"That's it," he said. "You're so wet it's not even the water."

His breath was ragged against my neck.

"I've thought about this all month. I couldn't sleep. I kept thinking about how you feel when you come on my hand."

"Show me," I whispered.

He curled his fingers, and I came.

I came hard and silent, with his palm pressed over my eyes and my teeth in my own wrist.

The orgasm rolled through me in time with the music.

I sagged back against him, shaking, with the pulse still going between my legs.
