Santa' Wayward Elf (11 page)

Once outside, he didn’t lead Sosie to the subway, but hailed
a cab instead. With the hard-on he was sporting, he wasn’t sure he could have
walked that far anyway. Sosie didn’t mind. In fact, she loved the idea of
taking a cab. Like so many other things, it was a first for her. Derek was sure
she probably would have “oohed” and “aahed” over everything inside it, but he
didn’t give her a chance to look around. Instead, he pulled her into her arms
for a searing kiss.

Sosie kissed him back, parting her lips as her fingers
threaded in his hair to hold him in close. She tasted like the chocolate ice
cream they’d had for dessert and it was even sweeter on her tongue. God, what
was it about her that had him losing control?

He didn’t remember the ride back to his apartment, much less
paying the cabbie. One minute he and Sosie were running up the stairs, the next
they were inside his apartment.

Shoving the door closed, Derek urged Sosie back against the
wall. He slid both hands in her hair and tilted her head back to cover her
mouth with his. She moaned and dropped the shopping bag on the floor, sliding
both hands up the front of his shirt to grasp his shoulders. Her breasts were
soft against his chest, her body hot as a furnace underneath her clothes. Oh,
man. There was no way they were going to make it to the bedroom. He was going
to take her right here against the wall.

He slid his hand inside her coat and up the front of her
T-shirt to find her nipple and give it a gentle squeeze. Sosie gasped.

“Do you like that?” he asked softly, dragging his mouth away
from hers to trail a path of hot, wet kisses along the curve of her jaw.

She only moaned in reply. Taking that to mean she did, Derek
continued to tease the stiff peak with the pad of his thumb. She arched into
his hand, gasping again as he gave her nipple another squeeze.

He chuckled softly and ran his hand down the front of her
body to cup her hot sex through her jeans. She writhed against him, and beneath
his palm he felt her pussy throb with need. He pressed his lips to the curve of
her neck and made lazy circular motions on her clit with his finger. Sosie
moaned again, louder this time.

As much fun as it would have been to see if he could make
her come through her clothes, he wanted to see that beautiful body of hers
naked.

He pushed her coat off her shoulders and let it fall to the
floor, then slid his hands underneath her T-shirt and pulled it over her head.
He was torn between her bra and her jeans, not sure which he wanted to take off
first. Eager to see her beautiful rose-tipped breasts in all their glory, he
removed her bra first. Then he went for her jeans, unbuttoning them with urgent
fingers and pushing them down over her curvy hips, leaving her naked, except
for her panties.

Even though he’d seen her without clothes before, her body
was too perfect not to stop and take in her bare breasts, slender waist and
curvy hips before caressing her long legs. She had to be the most gorgeous
woman he’d ever seen.

Resting one hand on the wall beside her head, Derek slid the
other down her taut belly to the tiny triangle of material covering her pussy.
But rather than push her panties down right away, he teased her through them
with his fingers, going round and round her clit.

She caught her lower lip between her teeth, looking up at
him with pleading blue eyes. “Take off my panties. Please.”

Derek did as she asked, slowly sliding her panties all the
way down her legs before moving back up to touch her again, making the same
circular motions as before, only this time directly on her clit.

Sosie clutched at his shoulders, her breath coming in quick,
little pants, and he knew her orgasm was approaching.

“Don’t stop,” she begged him. “Please don’t stop.”

“I won’t,” Derek promised, moving his fingers faster. “I’m
going to make you come like this.”

As he watched, her eyes fluttered almost all the way closed
and her body started to tremble. She leaned her head back against the wall and
cried out in one long, continuous moan as she climaxed.

“That’s it,” he urged. “Come for me, baby.”

When she finally opened her eyes again, it was to gaze up at
him with a mix of passion and awe. Sliding her hand up to cup his cheek, she
pulled him down for a long, hard kiss as she impatiently pushed his leather
jacket off his shoulders. She had half the buttons on his shirt undone before
the coat fell to the floor. Tossing it in the general direction of their other
clothes, she hooked her fingers in his belt and yanked him close. As she ran
her hands up his smooth chest, a small sound of appreciation escaped her lips.

Giving him a seductive look, Sosie knelt down on the floor
between his legs. As she tugged at his belt, her fingers brushed his abs and
Derek sucked in a breath. Damn, he was about to explode already. And she hadn’t
touched him yet.

From the smile playing at the corners of her mouth, he got
the feeling Sosie knew exactly what she did to him. It was as if she enjoyed
torturing him. He watched her slowly undo the buttons on his 501 jeans. Though
he didn’t know how he did it, he forced himself to wait patiently as she
slipped one button after another through the hole. When she got to the bottom,
however, his control slipped and he eagerly shoved down his jeans and
underwear, pushing them out of the way.

Laughing at his eagerness, she ran her fingers up his thighs
and wrapped a hand around the base of his hard cock. Then, looking at him from
beneath lowered lashes, she leaned forward and slowly ran her tongue up the
entire length of his shaft before taking the head in her mouth.

Derek groaned. Her mouth was so warm and soft around him, as
she slowly moved up and down on him. He let out another groan as she gently
cupped his balls in her other hand. Damn, she is talented at that.

“Oh yeah, baby,” he breathed. “Don’t stop.”

Sosie moaned, running her tongue over the tip of his
erection before moving her mouth up and down again. She fell into an easy
rhythm, taking him deeper each time until he could feel the head of his shaft
press against the back of her throat.

He sucked in a breath.
Daaaaaaammnn!

Afraid he’d come right then, he slid his hand in her long
hair to slow her down. Sosie must have sensed how close he was to orgasm
because she went back to teasing him with her tongue before taking him in her
mouth again. Derek liked to think he was disciplined, but what she was doing
felt too incredible for him to be able to hold back much longer. He tightened
his grip in her hair, tugging her head up.

“I’m close,” he said hoarsely. “And I want to be inside you
when I come.”

Sosie didn’t need any more encouragement. Running her tongue
over her lips in a move that made him groan all over again, she got to her
feet.

Grabbing his jeans, he reached into the pocket for his
wallet and the condom he always kept there. Making quick work of the wrapper,
he rolled it onto his shaft. Without a word, he grasped her ass in both hands,
then lifted her up and buried himself deep inside her in one forceful motion.

Sosie gasped, her arms and legs going around him. Her pussy
was so hot and tight that for a moment he couldn’t breathe. He tightened his
hold on her ass and began to pump in and out very slowly. He went deeper and
deeper with every thrust, driving her back against the wall.

She clutched at his shoulders, her nails digging into his
skin. “Harder,” she demanded huskily. “Take me harder!”

He obeyed, pumping into her hard and fast. He told himself he
should slow down, told himself he was going to come right then if he didn’t.
But it was hopeless. He’d been teetering on the edge for hours already and when
she screamed out her pleasure, he knew there was no holding back anymore.
Gripping her ass, he lifted his own to meet them in one hard thrust that had
him emptying himself with a hoarse groan.

Derek didn’t release her even after both their orgasms had
subsided. Instead, he held onto her, his still hard cock nestled deep in
Sosie’s pussy while she clung to his shoulders.

“I think that may have rivaled what we did last night,” she
said softly.

Chuckling, he lifted her head to kiss her, then pulled back
to give her a sexy grin. “What do you say we go into the bedroom and see if we
can top it?”

He felt her pussy spasm around his cock at the suggestion.
Her lips curved.

“What are we waiting for?”

Chapter Five

Sosie jerked awake the next morning to the loudest, most
horrible screeching noise she’d ever heard in her life. She bolted upright in
bed, covering her ears with her hands. Santa’s white beard, what the fig was
that?

She looked back at Derek to see if he’d heard it, too, and
found him slowly stirring on the pillow beside her. How could he possibly sleep
with that awful sound blaring in his ears?

“What is that terrible noise?” she asked, raising her voice
so he could hear her.

He didn’t answer as he calmly rolled over and thumbed a
button on top of a piece of some type of electronic equipment on the bedside
table. The terrible noise ceased immediately.

Derek rolled onto his back to look up at her. “It was the
alarm clock. Don’t tell me you don’t have those where you come from, either.”

Her face colored. “Of course we do. Ours just don’t sound
like that.”

“What do they sound like?”

“They have a series of soothing tinkling bells that are nice
and peaceful. Nothing like that torture device you have. That thing is enough
to wake a hibernating polar bear.”

Derek chuckled and pulled her down for a kiss. She had no
problem snuggling up with him again now that her ears weren’t ringing.

“Why didn’t you use the clock to wake us up yesterday?” she
asked.

“Because I didn’t have to go to work yesterday.”

Sosie lifted her head from his chest. She’d hoped they would
be able to go sightseeing again. “You have to go to work?”

“Afraid so, babe. I already had two days off and
unfortunately, crime doesn’t take much of a holiday, so it’s back to the
grind.”

She threw her leg across his and rubbed his semi-hard cock
with the inside of her thigh. “Sure I can’t convince you to stay home and play
hooky instead?”

“Woman, are you attempting to interfere with an officer of
the law in the performance of his duty?”

Regardless of his stern tone, Sosie had the feeling he was
teasing her. Since she couldn’t be sure, she decided it might be best if she
stopped rubbing her leg against his penis. But when she went to move it, he
wrapped his hand around her thigh, pressing it more firmly against his now
rock-hard shaft.

She leaned forward to kiss her way up his chest. “I’m guilty
as charged, Detective. Perhaps you should punish me by staying home and making
me scream at the top of my lungs for the rest of the day.”

Derek groaned. “You are a bad girl, aren’t you?” He lifted
her leg and slid her over so that she was beside him. “And while I’m tempted, I
have to go into work this morning.”

She gave him a playful pout. “You wouldn’t leave a poor
damsel in sexual distress like this and run off to work, would you?”

“Sexual distress, huh? Well, we can’t have that, can we?”

With a growl, Derek urged her onto her back, then settled
between her legs and drove his cock into her very wet and waiting pussy.

“I thought you said you had to get to work,” Sosie said, the
words coming out in a rush as he drove the breath from her lungs with his fast,
hard thrusts.

She wrapped her arms and legs around him. This wasn’t going
to be the same kind of slow, languorous lovemaking like they’d had the night
before, but something wild and frantic. Primal. Not that she was complaining.
Derek could do this to her as long as she was trapped here in the land of the BPs
as far as she was concerned. Which, hopefully, would be for a good long time.

“I do have to get to work,” he said, bending his head to
nuzzle her neck. “But I’m not the kind of guy to leave a woman in sexual
distress. Besides, I set the clock early in case I woke up horny.”

Sosie was pretty sure he hadn’t sprouted horns since last
night, but decided it must be another one of the strange phrases BPs used and
concentrated on what Derek was doing to her body instead. And right now, he was
doing incredible things. Like finding that perfect spot inside her with his
cock that sent her tumbling over the edge into oblivion and had her coming so
hard she was dizzy from it.

Afterward, Derek stayed where he was, his breathing ragged,
his cock pulsing inside her as the last tremors of orgasm faded. He bent his
head to kiss her. A slow, deep kiss that made her moan.

“Now I really do have to get ready for work.”

She groaned. “Couldn’t we stay in bed for a little while
longer? I’m as tuckered out as a flying reindeer after that.”

He chuckled. “You can stay in bed and sleep some more. I’m
just going to hit the shower, then take off anyway.”

As much as she wanted to spend the day lazing around in bed,
she couldn’t let Derek go off to work without breakfast. Her mother had always
told her it was the most important meal of the day. Though they all seemed
pretty important to her.

Throwing back the blanket, Sosie put on the T-shirt Derek
had given her to wear that first night and padded barefoot into the kitchen to
whip up something while he took a shower. While she would have loved bacon and
eggs again, she wasn’t brave enough to try making them. On the other hand, she
didn’t want the cold cereal they’d had for breakfast yesterday. That left bread
pudding. She could definitely manage bread pudding.

She was setting the bowls down on the table when Derek
walked into the kitchen. He wasn’t wearing jeans today, she noticed. Instead,
he had on a pair of tan-colored pants and a dark blue button-up shirt, along
with a tie.
