Kiss This (21 page)

“You don’t need to,” she answered, returning
kisses on his chin.

She noticed him take a breath of air as he
closed his eyes, but he kissed her lips softly and said, “Any time
you need me to stop, just say so, okay? I swear, Camryn, I only
want you to be happy.”

She was with a man that had sex appeal
screaming from every inch of him, but his sweetness and sincerity
turned her body into a sexual mess just as easily. She knew without
a doubt that this was the man she’d been waiting for. Teague was
the comfortable gentility that she needed; he had the patience and
the tenderness that fit her perfectly.

“I haven’t been with anyone for over two
years, Teague,” she admitted. “Believe me when I say how badly I
need you right now. And it’s not just physical. I mean yeah, it is,
but it’s more than that. It’s just…” She couldn’t even form the
words. She wanted to tell him so much more but already felt like
she was ruining the moment.

He kissed her so thoroughly it was obvious
the moment was
not
ruined. “I know what you mean,” he
whispered, and he kissed her again until they were a tangled, needy
heap on her bed. “I’m wondering how wet you are for me,” he sighed
against her neck.

Tingles consumed her skin as she laughed in
a pained, sort of desperate way, but didn’t answer.

“On a scale of one to ten, how wet are you,
Camryn?”

She smiled at the tease in his alluring
voice and couldn’t resist. “Probably not more than a three.”

“What?” he scoffed. He chuckled softly and
added, “You, sweetheart, are a liar.”

“Prove it,” she whispered.

His lips were sucking on her earlobe as his
fingers slid further into her panties. “Oh, I intend to,” he
murmured in a husky voice. His other hand maneuvered behind her
back to release her bra, and when he slid it off her arms, he
gently took a nipple in his mouth. She was already writhing before
his fingers even slid over her clit to the throbbing need between
her legs.

“Oh Jesus, Cam. You’re wetter than the
Northwest.”

She choked out a laugh as he slid two
fingers inside of her. His mouth left her breast and he kissed her
cheek, and then her lips.

“You’re off the charts, hon. I’d say at
least a twelve.”

“I’d say you’re probably right,” she rasped.
She moaned when his fingers went deeper, his thumb rubbing circles
over her clit at the same time.

“It feels so good to touch you like this,”
he told her softly.

He continued to make love to her mouth as he
finished her off down below. It came charging through her in an
instant; her natural reaction was to squeeze her legs together and
push against him. He whispered encouragements in her ear, and if it
wasn’t enough that his words were hot, his voice was even hotter.
She decided that Teague had to have the sexiest voice she’d ever
heard.

Teague pulled out of her and moved down her
body until his lips kissed along the waist of her pants. He tilted
his head to smile at her as he unzipped her. When he pulled her
pants off, his smile turned from cute to wicked as he grabbed her
legs and yanked her ass to the edge of the bed. He knelt on the
floor and slid off her panties, and then hooked her legs over his
shoulders as he kissed the insides of her thighs.

“You’re kinda wet,” he teased, licking his
lips when he looked her in the eye.

She exhaled her impatience as she moved in
front of him. “I get wet just from looking at you,” she answered
breathlessly.

He lifted an eyebrow. “Oh yeah? Well I don’t
doubt that, being that you’re a twelve when I touch you there.”

She tried to laugh but it was pathetic
because he was so close to licking her she could almost feel it.
Finally she felt his mouth against her, tongue diving deep to taste
her.

Camryn let out the moan she knew Teague had
been dying to hear and it definitely excited him more. His mouth
and the responsive sounds that came out of him sent her over the
edge seconds later, and she released a vocal accompaniment to match
the orgasm that pulsed through her. As she slowly came down from
the bliss, he licked her once more and kissed her clit before
finally making eye contact again.

“Fuck, that was hot,” he murmured in a husky
voice, retrieving a condom from his wallet. He dropped it on the
bed beside her as she set her wobbly legs on the edge of the bed
and pushed herself backward. Teague followed as he shook his pants
off and climbed over the top of her again. While he explored her
breasts with his hands, he pressed his lips to hers so she could
taste the ecstasy he’d been immersed in.

Camryn took the opportunity to slide his
boxer briefs down. He was sexy with them on, giving her a great
view of what exactly was inside them, but holy hell, he was a
beautiful man.

Every single inch of him.

He kicked them off and slid the condom on,
and then repositioned himself over her. It appeared like he was
going to again give her the option of stopping, but she didn’t want
him to. She opened her legs to invite him in, rolling her hips
slowly to show him how incredibly turned on she still was. He
lowered himself further, touching her entry with his tip. Camryn
exhaled and bit her lip, encouraging him to keep going as they
moved together. As his lips kissed her intimately, he used his cock
to massage her at the same time. On one of his trips from her clit
down he pressed a little harder and Camryn curled her hips in just
right and sent him inside part way. He opened his eyes to look into
hers as he groaned, pushing into her for the first time.

Camryn relaxed her legs over the backs of
his thighs as he gently held her wrists above her head. She matched
his movements inward, slow and easy, and they maintained eye
contact the entire time. When Teague let go of her hands she slid
them behind his back to hold him tight.

“You feel fucking incredible,” he told her
softly. He placed one hand against her cheek and kissed her. “Is
this okay for you?”

“It’s more than okay,” she smiled right
away. “If it didn’t feel so good when you make me come, I’d settle
for doing this with you all night.”

His crooked grin was adorable when he said,
“You don’t have to settle for anything. You’ve yet to benefit from
the whole Teague experience, sweetheart.”

“Well then I’m in the right place, aren’t
I?”

He slowly smiled again. “Damn right, you
are. Or…
I
am,” he added, giving a little extra push into
her.

A tiny grunt slipped out of her and then she
laughed as she wrapped him up tighter.

“And we do have all night, you know,” he
murmured against her neck.

“You’re going to stay?” she asked with
surprise.

He lifted his face up, alarmed. “Fuck yeah,
I’m gonna stay. Well only if you want me to—”

“Yes. Yes, please stay…”

“I want to be here with you. I
need
to be here with you,” he said softly, kissing her mouth again. “You
own me now, Camryn Jacobs.”

Looking into his eyes, Camryn could feel the
sincerity they held. It warmed her heart and soul, and she felt
like she belonged here with him too. It was time to trust her heart
again and let it lead her to something with Teague. She didn’t know
what it would be, or what it was about him that felt so right, but
she was willing to let it happen.

When Camryn rolled him over to trade
positions, Teague had the cutest grin on his face as he willingly
succumbed to her. He never took his eyes off her as she worked him
over, and even though she had only ever been with Zach, it felt so
easy to be with Teague.

She leaned down and kissed him, and while
against his lips she said, “I’m about to break loose here, Teague,
but for your first time inside of me, I want
you
to make me
come.”

He read her salacious smile loud and clear
and turned her onto her back again. He slid his hands under her ass
to improve the angle as he pumped in and out of her. She pressed
her head against the bed and arched her back with several moans
mingled with his name and God and a “fuck yeah” and Teague came
right after she did.

It was an explosive finale that left them
both breathless and sweaty, and Camryn was glad she was on her back
because she was seeing stars.

Teague kissed her softly as he pulled out of
her. He dropped to his back next to her and exhaled another long
breath of air. “Holy shit,” he managed to say.

Camryn turned her head to look at him. “I
didn’t know you could scream like a girl,” she smiled.

He laughed at the tease because
she’d
been the vocal one. “Yeah, well, that called for something
special,” he winked. “Whatever I can add.”

Biting her lip she smiled shyly. “Sorry, I
don’t think I’ve ever reacted like that before.”

He raised an eyebrow. “Really? You sounded
like a pro.”

She lightly backhanded his chest. “Shut up,”
she laughed.

“It was fucking hot, Cam. What are you
embarrassed about? I don’t think I’ve ever come so hard in my
life.”

“Really?”

“Hell no. You’re just…
Whoa
.”

She smiled and traced his chest with her
fingers, but after a few seconds, he took her hand in his.

“Hey, I’d say it’s time to tell me how you
cut yourself Christmas Day,” Teague said, taking her hand and
kissing the small pink scar on her wrist.

She rolled her eyes and laughed. “I’m
telling you, it’s really stupid.”

“So? Even better,” he grinned. “Please?”

“Fine,” she shook her head. She turned on
her side to face him better. “So we were eating dinner, right? I
was cutting my turkey and was kinda spacing out—thinking about you,
actually.”

“Oh yeah?” a cocky smiled appeared at the
corner of his mouth. “Picturing me naked again?”

“Yes, you arrogant fool. Pretty much.”

He placed their hands against his chest when
he laughed out loud and it made Camryn smile.

“God, you’re incredible,” he exhaled. “You
almost cut your arm off because you were busy fantasizing about me.
You were dreaming about what you would do to my naked body and
mistakenly sawed your arm instead of the turkey.”

“Not even close,” Camryn chuckled. “That’s
when the stupid crash happened. It made me jump enough that the
knife sliced across my arm.”

“Right,” he laughed again.

She dropped onto the pillow and laughed with
him. “Fine, convince yourself of whatever you need to.”

“I am. Thank you.”

Turning to him again she slid her hand over
his stomach and pressed her lips to his chest. “I need help taking
a shower,” she murmured. “Know anyone qualified?”

“I believe I’m qualified, but if I’m not,
I’m sure you can sign off some hours on my internship.” She rolled
to her back and laughed again. Teague pulled himself closer to her,
sliding an arm around her waist to kiss her cheek. “Have I told you
how much I love your beautiful laugh?”

Placing her hand against his face to kiss
his lips she replied, “Yeah, you have. And thank you for
giving
me all these opportunities to laugh.”

Chapter Twenty

“So you kissed him, huh,” Brandon stated
indifferently as he took another bite.

Camryn looked at him from across the table
as she set her hands in her lap. She didn’t want him to see her
nerves working as she rubbed her fingers with apprehension. Talking
about Teague with Melanie was one thing. As silly as her sister
could be, she at least knew Camryn well. Brandon did too, but there
was one major difference… He was Zach’s brother.

She waited for him to say something else,
but he continued to eat. Why she was so worried about his approval
kind of pissed her off, but she couldn’t help it. Brandon was the
only person she knew that loved Zach as much as she had, and she’d
spent the last twenty-five months trying to get on with her life in
so many unusual ways while Brandon had to watch.

Finally she couldn’t stand it anymore.
“Would you say something more than that?” she blurted, pushing her
plate away from her. She glanced around the restaurant before
lowering her voice. “Jesus, Brandon. I’m talking to you about
something really difficult and all you can do is eat your damn
food.”

He raised his eyebrows with surprise and
then slowly put down the fork. “Sorry, Cam. I just… What do you
want me to say?”

“I don’t know. I’m sorry that was rude. I’m
just… This is all new to me.”

He barely shrugged. “Well…um, is this what
you want? Teague, I mean. You like him a lot, I take it.”

“Yes. I think… I think he’s…” Well hell, she
couldn’t even say it. Her feelings for Teague scared the shit out
of her. She didn’t know if Brandon would understand that or not.
Yes she was entitled to a life after Zach, but would his brother
treat her differently once she found someone else? Even with their
awkward relationship, she still needed him in her life.

“What’s going through your pretty head,
Cam?” he sighed. “You look like you’re going to throw up. Are you
having another panic attack?”

She squirmed in her seat a little. “Not
going to have a panic attack. Haven’t had one for a few months. But
back to Teague?”

“Okay, back to Teague. What is it you want
to talk about? You met a guy, he came down here to be with you
and…? What, Camryn?”

She placed her elbow on the table and rubbed
her forehead. “We’re still friends, right?”

He almost gaped at her. “What? What kind of
question is that? We’ll always be friends, Cam. Unless your new
boyfriend still has a problem with me. I’m not the one that’s going
to come between us,” he motioned to the two of them.

“Teague isn’t like that. I haven’t exactly
told him much about you—I think he thought you were my friend with
benefits when you first met him.”
