DON’T STOP (Lila and Darrell) novel Chapter 18

Ryder

I took her hand and laid her down on the bed. When the backs of her knees hit the mattress, she sat. I knelt between her legs and looked up at her. Her brown eyes were wide and nervous, but there was something else there too. Want. Curiosity. The same hunger I’d seen in the hallway.

I rested my hands on her thighs. My thumbs traced slow circles over the soft skin just above her knees. “You’re safe here.” I said quietly. “This is your home now. No one’s going to hurt you. Not me. Not ever.”

She swallowed and gave a tiny nod.

I leaned in and kissed her forehead. Then her temple. Then the corner of her mouth. Soft. Reassuring. She sighed against my lips, and her hands came up to rest on my shoulders. I felt her fingers tremble.

I guided her back gently until she was lying flat on the bed. Her hair fanned out across the pillow. I stayed above her, braced on my arms so she could see my face clearly. I wanted her to know I was watching her. Really watching her.

I reached for the hem of her sleep shirt and lifted it slowly. She raised her arms to help. The fabric slid over her head and off. She wasn’t wearing anything underneath. Her breasts were small and perfect. Her nipples were already hard from the cool air and from the way I was looking at her. I tossed the shirt aside.

She crossed her arms over her chest instinctively. “I feel shy,” she whispered.

I took her wrists gently and pulled them away. “Don’t hide from me. I want to see you. All of you.”

I kissed her collarbone. Then the swell of her breast. Then lower. My mouth closed over one nipple. I sucked softly. She gasped and arched into me. Her hands found my hair. I gave the other the same attention. Slow licks. Gentle suction. Her moans were quiet but growing louder. Her body trembled under my mouth.

I hooked my fingers into the waistband of her panties and tugged them down. She lifted her hips to help. The fabric slid off her legs. She was bare now. Wet. Ready. I could see how slick she was already. My cock throbbed painfully in my shorts.

I settled between her thighs again. My weight rested on my elbows so I didn’t crush her. I looked down into her brown eyes. They were glassy. Nervous. Shy. Beautiful.

“So,” I said softly. “Are you saying we have a deal now? Can we move forward? Can we do what we’ve never done before?” She swallowed hard. Silence stretched between us. I could hear her breathing. Fast. Uneven.

“If you feel like you aren’t ready,” I continued, voice deep and steady, “tell me. Or forever hold your peace.”

I was leaking like crazy inside my shorts. Pre–cum soaked through the fabric. This was how I used to feel years ago. Hard. Leaking. Desperate. Before life broke me down. Before, nothing worked anymore. Now it was back. Because of her.

She stared up at me. Her eyes searched mine. Then she nodded slowly.

I shook my head. “Not good enough. Speak, Lila.”

She swallowed again. Her lips parted. “Yes,” she whispered. “It’s a deal.”

I smiled. Small. Real. Then I stayed between her thighs and pushed my shorts down. They slid off. My cock sprang free. Thick. Hard. Leaking. The head was flushed and slick

I lowered myself over her again. I rested my face against her chest. I kissed her everywhere there. Soft open–mouthed ki

across her collarbone. Down the valley between her breasts. Over the soft swell of each one. I sucked gently on her nipples again. She moaned softly. Her hands slid into my hair. Her fingers tightened.

I kissed lower. My mouth moved over her ribs. Her stomach. The dip of her navel. She trembled beneath me. Her breaths came faster.

I looked up at her. “You still okay?”

She nodded. “Yes. Don’t stop.”

I didn’t.

I kissed the inside of her thigh. Then higher. My tongue traced the crease where her leg met her hip. She whimpered. Her hips lifted toward me.

I settled between her legs fully. My shoulders pushed her thighs wider. I looked up at her one last time. “Tell me if it’s too much

Then I lowered my mouth to her.

I licked her slowly. One long, flat stroke from bottom to top. She cried out softly. Her hips jerked. I did it again. Then again. Her taste flooded my mouth. Sweet. Wet. Addictive. I swirled my tongue around her clit. Gentle circles. Then firmer. She moaned louder. Her hands gripped the sheets.

I slipped one finger inside her. She was tight. Wet. Ready. I curled it slowly. She gasped. I added a second finger. Thrust gently while my tongue kept working her clit. Her moans turned into soft cries. Her thighs trembled around my head.

“Ryder,” she gasped. “Oh God… please…”

I sucked her clit gently. Thrust my fingers deeper. She came suddenly. Her back arched off the bed. Her walls clenched around my fingers in tight pulses. She cried out my name. Her body shook. I kept licking her through it. Slow. Gentle. Drawing out every tremor until she was whimpering and oversensitive.

I kissed my way back up her body. Settled over her again. My cock pressed against her thigh. Hard. Leaking. Ready.

I looked down into her eyes. “Still want me inside you?”

She nodded. Her voice was shaky but sure. “Yes. Please.”

I reached down and guided myself to her entrance. The head nudged her opening. She tensed.

“Breathe,” I said softly. “Relax for me.”

She exhaled shakily. I pushed in slowly. Just the head. She winced. Her nails dug into my shoulders.

“It hurts a little,” she whispered.

“I know. Just a little more.” I kissed her forehead. “You’re doing so well.”

I thrust deeper. Inch by inch. Until I was fully inside her. She was tight. Hot. Perfect. I held still and let her adjust. Then, kissed her mouth softly. “Okay?”

She nodded. “Better now. Move.”

I did. I pulled back slowly and gently, then thrust forward again started to move with mine. Pleasure built between us. Hot and tight.

Faster,” she gasped.

I gave it to her. Thrusts harder. Deeper. The bed creaked under us. Her nails raked my back. She cried out my name. Her walls fluttered around me. She was close.
