Hard: A Military Stepbrother Romance (2 page)

The
whispered caress touched something inside me, making my heart squeeze with a
sudden longing I couldn’t name. He’d only called me that a few times - the one
name that didn’t seem invented to wind me up - and every time I’d seen that
strange look in his eyes.

Before
I could stop it, my mind turned to the one place I’d promised myself I wouldn’t
go tonight, the words slipping past my lips as I felt him slowly stepping
forward, taking me backwards until the full weight of the bed was behind me -
the significance of what we were doing hitting me again.

“Seth…what
is this?”

His
eyes clouded over instantly, and though his body was just as close and warm as
it had been before, I felt his mental step back. His slow, arrogant smile
covered whatever had been between us for an instant and he kissed me with a
rough desire that drove any further thought from my mind.

“We’re
having fun, baby…somehow we haven’t killed each other yet and I’m not bored,
that’s all.”

I
knew that - hell, I didn’t even
want
it to be more than that. I couldn’t
stand this guy, and he definitely wasn’t long-term material. All I’d wanted was
a memorable first-time experience - and from all the rumors, I had no doubt how
well he would provide that. But sometimes when he looked at me…I gave myself a
mental shake of the head, letting myself rise to the light, teasing tone he’d
take again. I kissed him back, my hands reveling in the hard feel of his body
under me before I shot him a sharp look of my own, a matching haughty smile
spreading across my lips.

“Good
to know, jackass, since I can’t promise to stand you much longer.”

He
chuckled and took me down to the bed in one swift, easy movement, his arms
holding me to break the fall as my breath left me in a small cry of surprise.
Then I was under him and I couldn’t think anymore as he worked his way across
my bare, willing skin, hands and lips creating rivulets of fire all across my
body.

“Then
I’ll make sure I take full advantage now, baby.”

His
growl got a moaned response and I wrapped my legs around the rough denim at his
hips, my center feeling unexpectedly exposed against him, ready and wanting so
much more while my hand clutched at the head hovering over my breasts. His
thick need pressed between my legs now, only his rough jeans and the light lace
of my panties separating us as the light rocking motion of his hips stirred my
blood and his mouth started to lavish attention through the slight fabric of my
bra, the moisture there spreading desperate heat across my chest.

“Oh
god, Seth…”

I
wanted more. I couldn’t help myself, crying out and bucking against him as his
tongue stroked the outline of my hard nipples roughly, sending sparks shooting
straight to my pussy where I was hyper-aware of his hardness just inches away.

My
blood was rushing in my ears now my pulse was beating hard enough I felt like
my whole body was throbbing with urgency. He shifted his hips so my legs fell
away from him and in an instant he had me pinned - one hand gathering mine
above my head with his body heavy above me while his legs trapped mine against
the bed.

Then
his mouth returned to ravish my chest again, my heaving breaths coming shorter
as his hand made its slow, teasing way down to the center of every throbbing
desire pulsing through my body. When one large finger finally stroked against
my waiting entrance, I jerked under him, whimpering a little as my hips thrust
instinctively towards him.

“Damn,
Bella, you’re so wet for me.”

I
was, I could feel my desire soaking my panties and as his mouth teased my pert,
eager nipples and his hand shifted to cover my entrance, I was suddenly finding
it hard to breathe. I’d never felt slutty before - I’d been raised too well for
that, but I could suddenly understand the appeal, the crazed desire to give
into the power of the feelings rushing through me, to be wild and unrestrained
and let Seth do everything and anything he wanted to me.

Then
his finger stroked across my clit and all the pressure mounting within me felt
like it was about to explode with that one simple touch, my head thrown back as
I cried out in response. His mouth was there instantly, covering mine and
taking my cries as his body continued working me relentlessly, tension building
in my stomach until I wasn’t sure I couldn’t stand it any longer.

“I
want it all Bella. I want to taste every cry as I make you come undone beneath
me.”

I
shuddered at the fierce words, moaning into his mouth as his tongue twisted
with mine and every part of my body beat in time with his. It was more intense
than anything else I’d ever felt in my life, and I could barely understand it.

I
might be a virgin, but I wasn’t completely naive - I’d experimented before, I
knew what this should feel like. And yet it was so much more that it seemed
almost impossible that the little pleasure I’d taken in the privacy of my
bedroom could be related to this deep, primal act of passion. Seth was taking
over every inch of me with his mouth, his tongue, his devilish hands, every
slight touch of my exposed flesh against his rock hard body making fire spark
in delight within me.

And
despite all my nervousness at the thought of actually doing it - actually
giving up myself to this man - the craving was building too quickly and too
thoroughly to deny. My whole body was throbbing with need now and I tried
desperately to grind against his strong hands while he kept me pinned with
nothing more than a shift of his body. He wasn’t letting me do anything other
than lie there and take it, setting and controlling the pace with a
deliberation and command I could scarcely believe.

I’d
heard all the not-so-subtle talk about how good he was, of course, but I
figured that meant he wasn’t inconsiderate and knew how to use his sizable cock
- not that he would leave me panting, wet and desperate while he slowly took me
apart. My anxiety about my first time had almost disappeared under the deep
need to have him inside me, to feel
something
filling that waiting
emptiness inside me.

“Seth…damn
it…I need more.”

That
cocky smile and the glazed look in his eyes told me he knew
exactly
how
much I was suffering under his attentions. One hand unclipped the front-facing
clasp on my bra in a display of expertise that had me wondering just how an
eighteen year old had come by these skills, and then his mouth closed over me
and I couldn’t wonder anything anymore. Electricity surged down to where his
hand was slowly teasing me while he slipped my panties down my legs, and I
could hear myself moaning in sheer wanton lust. He chuckled at me, hot eyes
watching as a smile danced around his lips.

“Tell
me what you want, Bella.”

I
bit my lip, but I couldn’t deny what was raging inside me, the way my eyes
clung to him and my body writhed against his.

“You…goddamn
it, you arrogant cock. I want you inside me. Now.”

He
laughed openly now, but his hands were on his belt in an instant, fingers
working it open as I found my eyes glued to the thickness trapped underneath.
My pussy clenched in anticipation as he shifted the denim jeans down and I saw
his hard length spring out, thick and ready for me.

I’d
never expected to be impressed with what I saw - from everything I’d heard,
cocks weren’t much to look at. But the crazed lust he’d filled me with must
have been playing with my mind, because I couldn’t take my eyes off it.

I
wanted it. I wanted
him.
And then I was moving, quick enough I surprised
myself as well as him, inching down the bed until I was eye-to-eye with the
throbbing length of him. My hand came around it to feel it’s silken-steel
warmth and then my lips were right there and I was taking him into my mouth
without another thought.

If
anyone had asked beforehand, I would have sworn up and down that I wouldn’t do
this the first time. But I wasn’t thinking here, just feeling and acting. And
it felt so goddamn right. He was big inside me, warm and hard with a salty,
musky taste that had me longing to feel him somewhere else entirely. I couldn’t
get him far inside, but just my tongue swirling around the tip, my hand
squeezing lightly underneath, had him gripping me hard, a low groan escaping
above me.

“Shit,
Bella…who would have thought…”

My
eyes darted up to meet his, my mouth curving around his thick cock as I enjoyed
taking the upper hand for just a moment. My other hand gripped the back of his
firm ass, caressing and enjoying as I sucked and moaned lightly against him. I
could feel the way his own desire was throbbing, building inside of him until a
moment later he started moving slowly against me, one hand lightly guiding my
head as I continued for all I was worth, satisfied at finally feeling how much
this was affecting him too.

His
breath hitched and he withdrew a moment later, his arms wrapping around me
while he pushed me back against the soft cluster of cushions at the head of the
bed. He grabbed something off the nightstand and the crinkling foil let me know
what he was doing before he came back over me.

His hands
held my hips as he shifted into position, the sudden thickness against my
entrance sending waves of nervous excitement through me while his mouth gently
covered mine, taking a deep, slow kiss that left me mindless against him. My
body was tense and ready, crazy with the lust and need that he’d drawn out with
sweet, slow torment and waiting to explode.

“Bella…”

I
could hear the deeper undertone in his voice, but I wasn’t up for talking, for
hearing whatever it was he wanted to say. I needed it
now
or I wasn’t
sure I’d build the nerve again.

“Fuck
me, Seth. Now.”

He
answered my wish a moment later, that teasing cock sliding slowly into me in
one smooth movement, our bodies joining tightly together. There was a momentary
pain, but I was wet and ready and it dissolved into a tight friction unlike
anything I’d felt before. He didn’t give me much chance to recover, his hands
moving from where they’d been anchoring us to cup my breasts, stroking and
teasing while his mouth worked mine with a passion that had me clenching hard
around where he’d settled inside me. My hands explored his back, hovered at the
nape of his neck as I enjoyed the way our bodies pressed close together, every
slight movement creating a spark of electricity that shot right through me.

His hands
moved around my back, letting every inch of exposed skin feel him as he started
moving slowly inside me. I gasped at the sensation, his thick cock seeming too
much for me to handle but creating such intense friction that my whole body
felt like it was beating in time with his movements, blood rushing through me
as the tension in my stomach started moving towards a pleasure I couldn’t
describe.

“God,
Seth…fuck…”

His
chuckle was too strained to be convincing, the effort of holding himself back
becoming apparent within moments. I was grateful for the restraint as I
adjusted to the feel of him inside me, but the slow movement was quickly not
enough and I found myself rising against him, meeting him stroke for stroke as
I wanted more.

“Damn
it, Seth, harder…I need…”

My
breath came in short gasps, insistent, and a moment later he took me at my
word, throwing me back on the bed and thrusting suddenly inside me, stars
shattering behind my eyes with that one quick motion. All the power in his
hard, muscled body exploded against me as he let the last vestige of control
slip, the wild animal that had always beat just below the surface taking over.
I cried out hard, my legs wrapping around him as I clung on with everything I
had, nails scratching along his shoulders while he nibbled at my lips and his
hands left hard, bruising marks against my skin.

“Christ,
I’ve never felt anything like you, Bella.”

I
wasn’t sure my tight pussy could take it, but every thrust brushed against my
clit, taking me closer to the explosion I felt building inside. I was moaning
incomprehensibly now, but I couldn’t help myself, I couldn’t believe what this
felt like - what he was doing to me. The aching tightness only took me higher
and I heard myself gasping Seth’s name as he grunted under me.

“Seth…I…I
can’t…”

“Don’t.
Don’t hold back. Come for me, Bella.”

It
was all I needed, his hard rasping breath in my ear as my climax roared through
me, wave after wave crashing against my suddenly over-sensitive nerves. I
screamed and his mouth covered mine, taking my release as he’d promised while
my body gripped his with a tightness I couldn’t control. A moment later it
proved too much for him, and I felt his last two hard thrusts before he joined
me in an oblivious heaven, his cock throbbing hard as it jerked again and again
inside me.

For
a moment, I knew nothing except the feel of his arms and the warm, musky scent
of our joint bodies around me, lost in depths of pleasure I couldn’t have
imagined.

We
came down in starts and shudders and when I finally managed to release my legs’
death-grip on his hips, he worked his way out of me and lay me down gently on
the bed, leaving me feeling thoroughly used and aching. I wondered idly whether
I’d be able to walk straight tomorrow, and found part of me hoping I’d feel the
reminder of this for a while to come.
