Breathe Into Me (29 page)

I arched my back, pushing my chest deeper into his touch. He responded by settling his body between my thighs, pressing himself against me, just the pressure of having his hardness against me had me gripping and clawing at his back.

“Take off your underwear,” I said, and was shocked by the words that had just tumbled out of my mouth. I was usually not this outspoken, but when it came to Kane, all bets were off. He made me feel brave and alive. He was slowly bringing out a side of me I didn’t know even existed.

He chuckled at my demand. “I will, just wait. There is time for that later. Right now there are a few parts of your body I have been dying to get my mouth on.” He looked up at me, his gray eyes full of lust and wanting.

I kept my eyes glued to his as he slowly rained kisses down between my breasts, then to my stomach where he used his tongue to draw a lazy heart around my belly button before lightly blowing air across it.

My hips thrust up of their own accord and Kane hooked his finger around the string of my pink panties before leisurely pulling them down my legs. Once he had rid them from my ankles, he raked his eyes up my body. Starting at my toes then slowly going up my legs, pausing a bit longer on my more intimate areas, before resting back on my eyes. I should have felt a bit insecure being all exposed to him like that, but I didn’t feel that at all. Seeing his desire for me actually made me feel empowered. Just knowing that I could make his breathing shaky and eyes gloss over the way they were, had my body humming all over.

“Every inch of you is perfect, Kelsey.” He shook his head slightly as if trying to bring himself out of a daze. Lightly grasping my ankle in his big, strong hand, he brought it to his mouth and placed soft kisses there and then up my calf, murmuring sweet little words in between each kiss. When he finally made it to my thigh, I felt him sink down onto the bed, lying flat on his stomach. Oh Lord. I didn’t know a lot about sex, but I knew what this meant and my body automatically went ridged.

“Um, Kane … I don’t know if you should…” I broke off, not knowing if I could actually come out and say the exact words.

“Kelsey … just shut up.” He smiled up at me before placing a feather light kiss high on my inner thigh, almost, but not quite close enough to where I was throbbing.

I laid my head back on the bed and closed my eyes. Still not really one hundred percent sure about this. Sure I had every intention of getting a little action tonight but I never expected this.

“Kelsey, relax.” I heard Kane say, but didn’t open my eyes to look at him.

“But … but you’re getting ready to put your face somewhere that faces shouldn’t really go!” I blurted out.

“Oh, believe me, baby. They most certainly should go there,” he laughed.

“Stop laughing at me, Kane. This is so not funny!”

I could still feel the small vibrations from his laughter shaking the bed when he asked, “Do you trust me, Kelsey?”

I rose up onto my elbows and looked down at him. “Yes. Yes, Kane, I do.”

“Good. Then lay down and let me do this for you.”

“But…”

“No, Kelsey. No buts. You say you trust me, right?”

I nodded.

“Then trust me. You’re going to enjoy this, baby. What the real question here is, who’s going to enjoy it more? You or me?” One side of his mouth pulled up in a sly seductive grin.

Sighing, I finally laid back down.
Do as the man says, Kelsey. Relax. People do this all the time, right?
I thought to myself. Before I could start to second guess my decision to go through with this, Kane’s warm mouth covered me, making me forget any thought I had in my head about stopping what was happening, making me forget any thought I had in my head period, except for what he was doing and how good it felt.

As if my hands had a mind of their own, they shot out and grabbed at Kane’s head. Not sure if I was pulling him away because the feeling was too much, or pushing him harder against me because I never wanted him to stop what he was doing, I felt his name fall from my lips in a blissful sigh, “Kane.”

“I know, baby. And I’m just getting started.”

Just getting started? Oh wow. I didn’t know how much more of it I could take before I fell over the edge, but one flick of his tongue had me seeing stars and hearing angels sing and I was pretty sure I knew the answer to his question. I was most definitely going to enjoy this more. Oh yes, I was.

I woke up the next morning to the smell of bacon. My stomach automatically started growling but I really didn’t want to get out of bed yet. Good thing I didn’t have to, because Kane walked through the bedroom door about that time wearing nothing but a pair of black, mesh shorts. His glorious, toned chest on display. He also had a coffee cup in one hand and a plate in the other.

“You finally awake?” He smiled as he asked.

“Mhmm.” I said as I sat up against his headboard. “Is that for me?” I nodded toward the plate that I could now see was stacked full of heart shaped pancakes and bacon. I’m pretty sure I could feel the drool running down my chin.

Kane plopped down on the bed but made no attempt to give me the plate, only popping a piece of bacon into his mouth instead. “Nope, this is mine. Get your own,” he mumbled around the bacon in his mouth.

I glared at him for a second, then pounced. When it came to bacon, I didn’t play around. I threw the cover up and over the footboard, and had his hips straddled between my thighs and my hands on the plate before he knew what hit him. He looked a little shocked but also pleased.

“Wow. Didn’t know you loved breakfast this much. I may just have to wake you up with food all the time if it ends with us in the position.” He looked down to where our bodies were pressed together. Before, this might have embarrassed me, but now all it did was make me tingle all over, and those tingles must have caused bravery because my response to him was to grind my hips down into his. He let out a long, low growl. “Kelsey…”

I couldn’t help the shiver that ran though my body at the husky way he said my name. He must have felt it, because he set the plate that he had been holding on the night stand beside his bed, and then flipped me over onto my back before taking my bottom lip between his teeth and giving it a little pull. I gripped his large biceps in my hands, squeezing them as the tingles in my stomach began to spread a little lower.

Kane ran his nose along my jawline, then down my neck before lightly sucking where my shoulder and neck meet.

“Mmm”—he sighed—“you taste so much better than breakfast.” He slowly licked a path up to my ear. “I want to be inside you, Kelsey, but I can wait if you’re still not ready.” He breathed into my ear. Just hearing him say he wanted to be inside me had me feeling I like I was going to explode.

I pulled my knees up around his hips and dug my heels into his backside to bring him closer to me. Then I began to rub my body against his letting him know exactly what I wanted. He groaned in my ear and I decided then, that had to be the sexiest sound in the world.

I put my feet back on the bed and pushed, causing him to roll over and for me to be on top again. I looked down at him and he smiled, probably liking that I was taking control this time. I wasn’t exactly sure as to what I was doing, but I was going with what felt good.

I grabbed the bottom of my tank top and pulled it over my head. My bare chest was on full display now. Kane sat up and began kissing my neck again. He lightly trailed his fingers up my stomach until he had my breasts in each of his warm hands.

My head fell back and I sank my body deeper onto his. I really wished I had taken off our bottoms first, but we would get there soon enough. Kane nuzzled and kissed his way down my neck to my chest before taking one of my nipples into his mouth. I ran my hand over his short hair, holding him in place. He was licking and sucking and had my whole body feel as though it was melting. Before I knew it, I was flipped on my back again and Kane was pulling my shorts down my legs.

When I was completely naked, he covered my body with his again and began lightly kissing my mouth. He used his tongue to tease mine, barely grazing mine before retreating back into his mouth. I slid my hands under his arms to his back, pressing the tips of my fingers into his flesh as I made my way down. When my fingers finally reached the band of his shorts, I began to pull them down, but could only get them so far before he had to help me.

When we were both finally, completely bare, Kane stopped kissing me and sat up on his elbows. He ran his thumb under my eye along my cheekbone.

“I really do love you, Kelsey.”

My heart swelled. I would never get tired of hearing him say that.

“You own me now, you know that? Never in my life have I wanted or loved a person as much as I do you. I don’t care that we haven’t known each other long. I know what I feel and this just feels meant to be. That everything is completely right when I am with you.”

I nodded. “I know,” I said as I took his face in my hands. “I think my heart knew it wanted you from the moment I first laid my eyes on you. I couldn’t get you out of my head, and we … literally kept bumping into each other. I have never really believed in signs, or fate, before, but I have to now that I have you in my life. All the bad things that have happened to us had to happen for us to find each other.”

It was true. I had lost my mom, but in losing her I had also found Kane. I probably would have never left that town had she still been living there. I wouldn’t have been able to leave her. And while I wished more than anything I could have them both, I knew my mom would be happy that I had found love.

“I never want to know what life is without you, Kelsey. Not. Ever. Again,” he finished as he slowly slid inside me.

I gasped. I could feel the tightness of my body stretching, allowing him to fit inside, but it was nowhere near the pain of the first time. This time it was a pleasurable pain and I could already feel the building of my orgasm. Kane surprised me by leaning back into a sitting position pulling me back on top, our faces nearly touching. I took advantage of the new position and began kissing him. I wanted to lose myself in this moment, in this kiss.

Kane gripped my hips and began to show me how to rock myself back and forth on his lap. This new position was making him rub me in new ways, and I knew my climax was coming quicker than I had expected it to. When the feeling became too much, I began to rock myself harder and faster, gasping in his mouth while we were kissing. My nails were digging into his back and I was scared I was probably breaking skin, but I couldn’t help myself. The feeling was too intense and I felt like I was going to fly away if I didn’t hold on to him.

Kane pulled my bottom lip between his teeth again, and that was all it took to send me splintering into a million different pieces. I gasped and lost the rhythm I had going, but Kane took my hips and pushed on through until he found his release as well.

When he was finished, he rested his forehead on my chest while we both tried to control our breathing. I lightly rubbed Kane’s back until he raised his head to look at me. We both smiled at each other before Kane laid us back down on the bed.

“Please tell me I will get tired of this eventually, because, honestly, I think I am becoming addicted,” I giggled.

Kane laced his fingers with mine before bringing our joined hands to his mouth to kiss each of my knuckles. “I became addicted to you a long time ago.”

We ended up staying in bed for a good part of morning. We talked about his plans for the bar he wanted to open, and how he couldn’t wait to run his own place. His excitement about his plans were contagious and I couldn’t help but picture Kane in his own bar. He would make a great boss. He was always in control of himself and level headed … most of the time. I had only seen him lose his cool a couple times, but both of those times had been when the fights had happened at the bar, and, honestly, that was enough to make anyone go a little off the edge.

Later that evening, Kane had to work and I decided to just stay upstairs at his place. I had some studying to do, and there was no way I would want him dragging himself out so late to run me back to the dorms.

Nate, Jessi, and I had finished our assignment a few days before and had made an A on it. I was so glad to finally be finished with it. It hadn’t been a hard assignment, but now that it was over I had more free time to spend with Kane. But I also felt bad, because since we had finished, I hadn’t really spoken to Nate that much.

Other than Kane and Landon, Nate had been one of the closest friends I had made here, and now that I had a boyfriend I had completely dropped him. Maybe I should text him and see if he wants to meet up for coffee one day? I wasn’t sure how Kane would feel about it, but he would just have to get over it. I knew he had nothing to worry about when it came to Nate, he would just have to trust me.

I had done all the studying I could handle for one night, and it was still pretty early. Kane wouldn’t be off work for at least another two and a half hours. And after not finding anything good to watch on TV, boredom got the best of me and I decided to walk down to Shot’s to see what Kane was up too.
