THE BIGGEST STAGE (A Brothers of Rock - WILLOW SON - novel) (10 page)

The moment was then interrupted by
Colby
’
s cell beeping on the
sand behind them. They both looked at the same time.

“
Shit,
”
Colby said.

“
What?
”

“
That
number
…
that
’
s the driver who took your
friend back to the hotel
…
 
there
’
s something wrong
with her.
”
 

(10)

Getting back to the hotel was a
real treat, but Colby managed. He put his shirt on and it instantly clung to
his body. When he called the driver, at first, there was no answer. But the guy
finally answered. As it turned out, he was just calling to say that Christie
had gotten sick, but she was fine now. She was in bed, finally sleeping.

It pissed Colby off a little to be
taken from the beach with Tessa for nothing. Then again, they had to get off
that beach. The fire between them was growing too hot, too fast.  And the sand
was getting really damn annoying.

The driver came to get them from
the beach. Lucky for Colby, he had years of experience on the road. Traveling
meant finding ways to get through nights that were unplanned and crazy. He had
a spare bag of clothes in the car waiting for him. Tonight was going to be very
simple - he was going back to the hotel with Tessa. They
’
d pick up wherever the hell they wanted. There was
still hours before sunlight and that meant hours for Colby to explore and enjoy
Tessa
’
s beautiful body.

When they got to the hotel, the
first thing Tessa did was check on Christie. Making sure she was okay.
Breathing. Sleeping comfortably. Had a bucket and water. Everything as though
Tessa was her caretaker. Colby just hung back, standing in the doorway to the
bathroom, watching it all happen. The way that black dress kept clinging to
Tessa
’
s body. The way her
hair fell forward when she bent forward and how fast she tried to tuck it
behind her ear, only to have it fall forward again.

The scene was too much for Colby to
handle.

He turned and snuck into the
bathroom, closing the door halfway.

He grabbed his cell and checked. No
calls. No texts. He figured by now Harry had to have been meeting with Portis.
Probably the rest of the band, too. Colby knew he was going to take some hell
for ditching on the night, but it was so worth it.

“
Hey.
”

He turned and Tessa stood in the
doorway to the bathroom, smiling.

Yeah
…
so fucking worth it.

Tessa was holding the bottle of
vodka that Colby had taken from the party.

“
I
think we forgot about this,
”
Tessa said. She stepped into the bathroom and shut the door.

“
Yeah,
we did.
”

Colby moved toward Tessa and took
the bottle out of her hand. He opened the cap and took a drink. When he gave it
back to Tessa, she took a drink and the sight turned him on.

“
I
’
m going to jump in the shower
real quick,
”
Colby said.
“
Wash the sand off me. It
’
s kind of getting into all the
wrong spots.
”

Tessa put the bottle down and then
made a move to the shower. She turned it on and steam started to rise up in a
few seconds.

Colby grabbed the bottom of his now
damp shirt and started to lift it.

“
Wait,
”
Tessa said. She was right
there, almost pressing against him.

“
What?
”

“
Let
me do it
…”

Tessa grabbed the shirt.

Without a protest, Colby let her
take the shirt off his body. She let it fall to floor with a wet
thunk,
and then her hands were against his chest. Her nails were teasing, tearing down
to his stomach.

Top that off with her
pretty
eyes
burning at him and Colby had his own little slice of heaven standing
before him.

For the second time that night,
Tessa opened Colby
’
s jeans.
Her hands fought against the wet denim, one hand sliding right into his jeans
and cupping his thickness. Colby let out a soft hiss, his hands tight to Tessa
’
s waist. He slowly reached
around and worked his hands up her back, finding the little black zipper that
would help to take off the little black dress. He tugged on it, unzipping the
dress all the way down to the small of Tessa
’
s
back.

Her hand teased at Colby, staying
over his boxer briefs, making him impossibly hard and actually uncomfortable as
his thickness pressed against the boxer briefs, wanting out.

Tessa took her hand out of Colby
’
s jeans and slowly turned
around. There was something about the sight of her back, the dress unzipped,
the allure of so much temptation. Lucky for Colby he loved temptation.

He slid his hands along Tessa
’
s slender shoulders and brought
the dress down her arms. Watching it fall forward left him gritting his teeth.
When he unsnapped her bra and knew her breasts were exposed, it left him doing
everything in his power to hold back and savor the moment. Somewhere in the close
recess of his mind he knew they were going to depart in opposite directions
tomorrow. And as much as he wanted to give
pretty eyes
Tessa a night she
’
d never forget, he also wanted
to give himself a night he
’
d
never forget.

That game played with the strings
of Colby
’
s heart he wasn
’
t used to experiencing.

He ran his hands down her back and
into the dress again, pushing it down. The lacy panties he had been playing
with at beach were black. Tessa gently bent forward and let the dress fall to
her ankles. Two quick steps and she was finally out of it. That left her
completely naked except for the panties.

Colby took quick care of that next.

Along her sides, feeling the sexy
yet subtle curve of her body, Colby grabbed the edges of Tessa
’
s lacy panties and dropped down
behind her to take them off her beautiful body. At the curve of her ass, he
gently kissed just above, making her shiver with surprise. Once her panties
were off, Colby placed his hands to her sides again. He kissed the small of her
back and inched his way up. At her shoulder blades he allowed his hands to
explore again, around and up, seeking her breasts. When he found them and
cupped them, Tessa put her head back and groaned. Colby looked down at her,
their eyes meeting - again - and that spark shooting between them.

I
’
m in trouble here,
Colby thought, but he wasn
’
t able to stop himself.

He released his hold on Tessa
’
s right breast and gently
touched her neck. It was a subtle move of control and Tessa quickly put her
hand to his, but she didn
’
t
move his hand out of the way. She was succumbing to him and it was wildly
turning  him on.

With his left hand, Colby brought
his fingers together and rolled Tessa
’
s
thick, erect nipple. Tessa sucked in a shaky breath.

She reached back and hurried to
shove Colby
’
s jeans and
boxer briefs down. They were still wet, still hard to move, but she worked them
down hard enough for Colby to pop free.

The second Tessa
’
s hand gripped Colby
’
s cock, that was it. He felt
himself throb, ache, and as much as he hated to admit it, he could have come
right then. The only way he was able to hold himself back was to kiss Tessa. To
focus on her lips and tongue. To take command of his body and the scene all
around him.

But Tessa threw another wrench into
his plan.

Her hand didn
’
t just stroke his hard dick, she
took her hand away and then pushed her back to his. That left his erection
stuck between his stomach and her back. Warm, cozy, and it was Tessa
’
s movements that made him throb.

She slowly stepped to the right and
Colby went with her. She touched the counter of the bathroom and thrust back at
him. His hands were quickly off her body for a second.

Colby touched her ass, squeezing
her soft flesh, his thumb digging to get between her legs and feel her true
warmth. When he looked up, the mirror was completely fogged by the running
shower. Tessa looked back at him. No words were needed with the look in her
eyes.

“
Ah,
pretty eyes,
”
Colby
growled.

Colby gripped the root of his shaft
and guided himself to her sweet center. He touched, pressed, feeling her
tightness. She thrust back, welcoming him, wanting him to fuck her. And that
’
s what Colby tried to convince
himself that
’
s all this
was. A good fuck. A really good fuck. Definitely not what he was used to on the
road. And definitely not that kind where he would just go at it.

“
Pretty
eyes,
”
Colby said as he
teased her center.
“
Are you
okay with this? It
’
s all me
…”

“
Yes,
”
Tessa purred.
“
I
’
m
fine. I
’
m taken care of. I
wouldn
’
t lie to you.
”

Colby had heard that dozens of times
on the road. A lot of women would have killed to get knocked up by a rockstar.
Like scratching off the million dollar lottery ticket.

But for some reason Colby trusted
Tessa. That, and he was so lost in the moment, nothing mattered.

He thrust forward, breaking her
open, welcoming himself inside her body. He gripped her hips with both hands,
pulling at her, making sure he was as deep as allowed. He pulled back and
thrust forward again.

She was so good. So precious. So
fucking beautiful.

And she was so sexy.

If it couldn
’
t get any better, Tessa reached forward and wiped
the mirror.

The clear spot didn
’
t last long, but long enough for
Colby to see her eyes and see her supple breasts dangling over the bathroom
sink.

It was hot
…
literally and sexually.

Colby wondered if anyone had ever
been this good in his life.

He slipped a hand around Tessa
’
s body and pulled at her,
keeping her close and tight to him.

He thrust at her, entering her
harder, loving the way she groaned
…

**

Tessa was so full, she wanted to
cry out but couldn
’
t find
the breath. It took all her damn strength and might to reach forward and wipe
off the mirror. Yeah, that lasted all of a few seconds, but they were an
amazing few seconds. Seeing Colby behind her, his eyes on fire, the muscular
detail of his chest, gently flexing as he thrust forward, burying his manhood
inside her.

Pulling back, thrusting again. And
again.
And fucking again.

The feel of him, so natural, thick
and hard, made her body ache and tremble even more. She never let men inside
her like this. She was taken care of, that much wasn
’
t a lie. Her daily pill allowed her to enjoy Colby
’
s company like this. But it was
more than that. She trusted him. Whatever the hell that meant.

His right hand touched just above
her sex, fingers digging and teasing at her. He came forward harder and faster,
making it impossible not to resist her deepest need to let go. To just be held
and fucked by someone else. The need to always care was hard to let go, even in
moments like these.

But then Colby touched her clit.
The soft nub of her
magic button,
something that a lot of men seemed to
be intimidated by.

Not Colby.

He went right for her. Touching,
rubbing, his cock still working beautifully in and out of her body.

Tessa threw her head back and let
out a long overdue cry of pleasure. When she sucked in a deep breath, it was
all steam from the shower. There was something sexy about the hot water running
and the steam, but it was making it harder to breath.

She dug her palms into the sink and
thrust back at Colby. The steam made the porcelain slippery though. There was
just so much to damn focus on. Let alone what was already the greatest sex of
her life.

But it was for one night. One time.
One night.

Colby put his other hand to her
shoulder and gripped tight. Tessa turned her head and saw his big, strong
fingers holding her. Of all the things happening around her, on her,
inside
her
, this was the one thing that finally sent her over the edge.

As she started to climax, she bit
at Colby
’
s hand, groaning as
her deepest core throbbed with a burning pleasure that made everything tingle. 

She bit harder than she intended,
but Colby didn
’
t take his
hand away from her shoulder. Instead, he thrust at her, harder, deeper, faster.
Tessa felt her body becoming all his for the taking.

Then Colby slowed with a hiss. His
chest curled around to her back, his lips pressing to her neck.

“
Ah,
fuck, pretty eyes
…”

That was all Colby said before
grunting and reaching his own climax.

The feeling inside her came almost as
a shock.

The passion ran wild between them
and became some kind of togetherness.

Colby held her, thrusting deep
within her core.

Then exited her body
…
but he wasn
’
t done.

Instead of just being done and
walking away, Colby spun her around. A hand was then at her cheek. A thumb
grazed her lips. Tessa was so exposed to the rockstar, but she didn
’
t mind. It scared the hell out
of her, but she wanted it.
