Chapter 12: Say It Again

"Take me upstairs," I said again.

I said it clearly, with my hands in his hair.

Ezra's whole body shook once.

He picked me up off the counter, one arm under my thighs and one across my back, and carried me out of the kitchen.

I kissed his jaw the whole way up the stairs.

I kissed his throat and bit it.

He swore under his breath and took the last three steps in one stride.

His room was at the end of the hall.

The door was already open.

A lamp burned low on a table by a wide bed with a dark blanket, and the window showed the river under the moon.

He kicked the door shut behind us and set me on my feet next to the bed.

For a second we only breathed.

"Last chance," he said, rough. "I'll take you to your room myself."

"If you say that one more time I'll leave."

He laughed, once, low, helplessly.

Then he took hold of the hem of my sweatshirt and drew it up over my head.

I stood in front of him in my bra and pajama pants.

I had expected to feel shy.

I did not.

He looked at me for a long time without speaking.

His hands rose to my ribs, slow, and his thumbs moved along the bottom of my bra.

"You're beautiful," he said. "I should have said it the first day. I've been thinking it the whole time."

"Say it again later."

"I will."

He unhooked the bra and let it fall.

His breath caught.

He cupped my breasts in both hands and ran his thumbs across my nipples, and a sound came out of me that I had never made.

"Ezra."

"Again."

"Ezra."

He lowered his head and took one nipple into his mouth.

I clutched his shoulders.

His tongue moved over the peak, hot and slow, and then he sucked, hard, and I felt it pull low in my belly.

My knees folded.

He caught me and laid me back across the blanket.

I stared at the ceiling.

He kissed his way down my stomach to the waistband of my pajama pants.

"Lift," he said.

I lifted.

He drew the pants and my underwear off together and dropped them on the floor.

Cold air touched me, and then his hands, rough and warm, on the insides of my thighs.

He pushed them wide.

I had never been looked at that way, so openly and so long.

"Look at you," he said. "Wet already."

"You did it."

"I'm going to do a lot more."

He lowered his mouth.

The first stroke of his tongue went right up the center of me.
