Rogue (Bad Blooded Rebel Series) (5 page)

“I’m not picky. Whatever you want is
just fine by me,” she said. “I’m going to take a quick shower, I’ll be right
back.”

“Take your time,” I said, and I dialed
the number. I watched her walk away down the hall to her room, my dick getting
harder at the sight of her hips swaying as she walked. I shifted in my pants
and tried to think of anything I could to make my growing erection go away. I
wanted to end this day with a happy memory for her and I was determined to make
that happen. I was just going to have to keep my wits about me and try my
hardest to behave.

Two hours later I had changed into a tee
shirt and pajama bottoms, I had a belly full of the most amazing pizza known to
mankind, I had a bowl of popcorn in my lap, and I had the most beautiful girl
in the world snuggled in my arms on her couch. Everleigh and I were lying
together under a fleece blanket as we watched the pre-countdown festivities on
television.

All the guys had called at one point or
another to wish us a happy new year. Jude tried to convince me to bring
Everleigh to the party everyone was attending at some bar on the local college
campus but I turned him down. The last thing Everleigh needed was to be at a
rowdy New Year’s Eve party with a bunch of drunken coeds that would love
nothing more than to pull me into a bathroom and beg me to fuck them. At one
point I would have been up for that (and had done it before several times) but
since I’d met Everleigh, no one interested me in the slightest.

This was the longest I had ever gone
without sex ever since I started having it when I was fourteen. I was sporting
a serious case of blue balls but I’d suffer for as long as I had to for this
girl.

I felt her fingers tracing the designs
of the tattoos on my arms and she let out a little sigh. “Thank you for doing
this for me tonight. This is nice, just sitting here with you,” she said. “For
a moment I forgot about everything.”

“I’m glad I could take your mind off
things, Evie,” I said, and then I cursed. “Shit, sorry. I did it again.”

“It’s okay if you call me that, Ryder.
Dad really liked you a lot in the short time he knew you and when you call me
that it really does make me feel better.”

“I’m glad. I don’t know why I keep
slipping. That’s something between you and your dad and I don’t want to intrude
or taint those memories.”

She shook her head. “You won’t. If
anything you’ve made them better. You are keeping him alive in a sense so if you
want to call me Evie it’s fine by me.”

I smiled and kissed her forehead. “Okay,
I’ll remember that.” She continued to trace my tattoos with her fingers and I
couldn’t hide it when the hair on my arms stood straight up under her touch.

She turned her face toward mine and
looked up into my eyes for a split second before her gaze landed on my mouth.
Her tongue darted across her bottom lip and I felt myself start to get hard
again. I reached my hand up and caressed her cheek and traced my thumb across
her lips.

“Ryder,” she breathed, and I was about
to lose control and pull her lips to mine when I heard the television announcer
say,
“Okay everyone, it’s almost time for the ball to drop and ring in the
new year! Thirty seconds to go!”

Everleigh jumped at the sound of the TV
but our eyes never left each others. The whole world was on hold and we were
the only two people in that moment that mattered. The seconds ticked by until I
heard the announcer say
, “Okay everyone, here we go! Get ready to kiss the
one you love as the seconds tick away! Ten, nine, eight…”

“Ryder,” Everleigh repeated, desire in
her voice, “I…”

“Seven, six five…”

“Everleigh…” I trailed off. I needed to
back away before I let things get too far. But the way she was looking at me
right now…

“Four…”

She wasn’t afraid. She wasn’t unsure.
“Please,” she whispered.

“Three…”

“Are you sure?” I asked.

“Two…”

She nodded. “I’m ready.”

“One…Happy New Year!”

At the moment the clock struck midnight,
Everleigh and I fell into each other and our lips instantly met. I wasted no
time sliding my tongue into her mouth and she whimpered at the taste of me. Her
kiss was like a drug to me…she was the best kind of high.

The arm I had wrapped around her
shoulders moved down to the small of her back and she turned her body into me.
Everleigh wrapped her arms around my neck and pulled my body into hers. She
quickly wrapped her legs around my waist and straddled me on the couch and I
groaned at the feel of her heat pressing against my growing erection. The only
thing between us was two thin pieces of clothing from my pants and her tiny
shorts.

I didn’t how far she wanted to take
this, but however this went down I knew I didn’t want it to happen while we
were on her couch. I wrapped my arms around her waist and quickly stood up,
taking her with me. She tightened her grip on my waist with her legs and she
gasped. “Are you really sure you are ready for this, Everleigh?”

I looked into her eyes, searching for
anything I could find that would leave any doubt that this was what she wanted,
but I found nothing. All I saw was pure desire and something else…was it love?
Before I could dwell on it, I heard her say, “I am more than sure, Ryder.”

“I just don’t want us to do this and you
wake up and regret it in the morning,” I said. I was falling so hard and fast
for this girl that if she woke up tomorrow and decided that sleeping with me
was the biggest mistake of her life, I knew I’d be devastated. Call me a big
ass pussy but that’s how I felt.

She shook her head, which made her body
wiggle right into my dick. I gripped her hips with my fingers to steady her.
“Ryder, I have never been more sure of anything in my life. I want you so much
and I’m not afraid anymore. This feels so right,” she said.

“It does,” I said, and she moved her mouth
down along my jaw line and began to kiss and lick my neck. I gritted my teeth
together and fought back a moan. “Evie, I’m scared,” I admitted.

She snapped her head up and her eyes
widened. “Scared? Of what?” I shook my head. “Ryder, you can tell me. Maybe I
can help,” she said.

I took a deep breath. “I’ve never made
love to a girl before,” I admitted. I looked at her shocked expression and
fought back a laugh. “Not in the way you think. I’ve had sex, Everleigh. A
lot
of it…” I said, and she looked away for a moment before looking back at me,
“but I have never made love. I am scared that I will fuck this up if I go with
my instincts. All I know is hard, fast, and dirty.”

She played with the hair at the nape of
my neck. “You won’t. The way you have been with me since we met…you’ve been
amazing, Ryder. When I wanted to slow things down you didn’t hesitate to
respect me. When I fell apart, you picked up the pieces and are helping me put
them back together. I know you won’t be too rough with me. I trust you,” she
said.

Even though I was still cautious, that
was what I needed to hear. Our lips met again and this time, our kisses were
desperate and full of need. I carried her to her bedroom and opened the door. I
shut it with my foot and Everleigh stifled a laugh. “What’s so funny,
gorgeous?” I asked.

“You shut the door. It’s not like we
have to be quiet now,” she said, and her eyes glassed over for a moment.

“Oh, Everleigh,” I started, but she
shook her head.

“It’s okay. I just didn’t think before I
spoke. I’m all right,” she said, and leaned in to kiss me again. I was trying
not to read into what she’d said and when I felt her tongue glide into my mouth
again, I was a goner. I walked her over to her bed and gently set her down. She
started to reach for the bottom of my shirt, but I stopped her.

“Evie, listen to me. I’m going to be
really honest here. It’s taking everything in me not to literally tear your
clothes off and fuck you as hard as I can right here and now,” I admitted, and
she swallowed hard. “All I am asking from this is that you let me take my time
with you. I think that will help me to keep in control. I need to know that I
can slow it down and be calm and the only way to do that is for you to give
yourself over to me. Can you do that and really trust me?”

Wide eyed, she nodded. “I already told
you I trusted you, Ryder.”

“I know but I guess I just needed to
hear it again. I want to make love to you, Evie, and this is a new thing for
me. I have to know I can be the right kind of lover you need. I guess I am
asking for a chance to prove to both of us that I am the only man you will ever
want,” I said.

“So, let me get this right. You are
asking me to completely let go of every idea of sex I’ve ever had and let you
do what you want to me?” she asked nervously.

“Yes, in a matter of speaking. Don’t
worry, I’m not going to pull any freaky shit on you,” I said, smiling, and she
lightly giggled. “I just basically want you to lay back and enjoy. Give
yourself to me tonight,” I said, staring into her hypnotic eyes.

She bit her bottom lip and blinked a few
times. “I’m yours, Ryder. I trust you,” she repeated, and I took her hand and
pulled her to her feet.

“Put your arms up,” I commanded, and she
did. I placed my hands on her waist and slowly started to pull up her camisole,
trailing my fingers along her sides as I went. I pulled her top up and over her
head with ease, and I gasped when her hair came cascading down in a waterfall
of dark waves.

She wasn’t wearing a bra under her top
and my semi hard dick went completely rock solid when my eyes landed on her
absolutely perfect breasts. They were full, firm, and beautiful. I wouldn’t
wait to taste them. “God you’re beautiful,” I said, and I quickly pulled my
shirt over my head and tossed it to the floor.

She lowered her hands and touched my
chest with shaking fingers. Her delicate hands roamed down my chest and felt my
defined abs, which contracted at her touch. “So are you,” she whispered. I
pulled her close to me and we both gasped at the feel of our skin touching. I swept
her hair back off of her shoulders and began to kiss my way from her neck down
to her collarbone before my mouth was on top of her breast. My hand covered one
breast while my lips moved down and I got my first taste of one of her perfect
pink nipples. She tasted so sweet, and I planned on tasting every inch of her
body all night long.

Everleigh

My eyes closed…it was hard to focus on
anything other than Ryder’s deliciously sinful mouth on my nipple while his
skillful calloused hands rolled and teased my other breast. I threw my head
back and moaned loudly. I had never felt pleasure like this before…damn it,
this man was talented. I could feel heat burning through me and my panties were
dampening by the second. “You taste so sweet,” he said, and the feel of his
warm breath on my nipples made them harden painfully. For a man that’s never
really made love before, he was off to a damn good start.

He moved us to the bed again and he
gently guided me back and I laid my head on my pillow. In an instant he was on
his knees at the foot of the bed and he hovered over me for a moment before his
mouth was back on my chest, licking and tasting each breast. He didn’t spend
too much time on them and I felt tingles shooting through me as he began to
kiss his way down my stomach.

His tongue dipped into my belly button
for a quick moment before his hands found the waistband of my shorts and he
began to slowly pull them down. I lifted my hips slightly so he could pull them
off with ease and soon they joined the growing pile of clothes on the floor.

Ryder’s eyes roamed hungrily up and down
my body and I shifted around to try and ease some of the pain I was feeling
from how turned on I was. “Fuck, you’re so sexy,” he said as I lay on the bed
in nothing but a tiny red pair of panties. His fingers found the waist band of
them and he slid them under the seam at my hips. “These panties are hot, Evie,”
he said, licking his lips. “Are you particularly fond of them?”

“N-not really. I’ve had them forev-” I
gasped loudly as I heard a loud
riiip
. I looked down and saw Ryder tear
my panties clean off of me and toss them to the side.

He smiled sexily at me and cocked is
head to the side. “Sorry, they were in my way,” he said, winking.

I smiled back. “Couldn’t you just as
easily have taken them off?”

“Where’s the fun in that? Don’t worry, I’ll
buy you a new pair,” he said, and his hands massaged my thighs as he stared
down at my naked body. “God, Evie…” he said, almost like a prayer.

“What is it, Ryder?” I asked, still
feeling a bit insecure.

“You are
so
damn beautiful.
Everything about you is beautiful. Your lips, your long neck, your breasts,
your stomach, your soft skin, and especially this,” he said, running his
fingers along the outside of my entrance, “this is fucking gorgeous.”
