Her Possessive Guard

E.R. Knight

Taste of Ecstasy

Adam winced when the warm water cascaded down his back. It fucking stung and hurt everywhere.

He braced his hand against the wall and hung his head low, letting the steam that had begun to form envelop him in its warmth.

He was tired and fucking sick of the stench of blood on his body. On every inch of his clothing. He hadn’t been able to clean up that well after the fight.

The water rolled down his back and along his legs. Opening his eyes slightly, he saw the color change to a dull red and then a light brown as it went into the drain.

His cock throbbed between his legs.

Kara.

The bittersweet pleasure that was out of his reach.

For now.

His head hurt just thinking about how close he had come to losing it with her.

If his knuckles didn’t hurt so bad, he’d be fisting himself right now, letting the ache in his cock be replaced with relief.

Oh yeah, she was definitely fucking with his head, and she had to know it.

What with all the skittish looks she’d been giving him whenever she caught him staring at her. And he had to admit, those looks turned him on.

While it was true that she probably hated his guts, neither of them could deny that they were attracted to each other.

He closed his eyes again, trying to remember her face. It didn’t take long.

She was plain at first glance. But if you looked closely, and he had, you’d see how fucking wrong you were.

She had a round face, full cheeks, and plump lips that begged to be kissed. He wanted to bite that soft flesh of her lower lip and make her moan for him.

Only for him.

It was sweet torture to fool around with her and keep his hands off her delectable body at the same time. He could still taste her in his mouth. Her skin was so soft and warm.

Unlike most of the women he had been with till now, she was achingly soft all over. He smiled, except for the tight buds of her nipples he had caught a peek of today, of course.

He swore when his cock jerked.

What was it that was getting him obsessed with her? Was it that she spewed venom at him every time they were in the same room? Or that he was aware that she was a virgin?

No, it couldn’t be the latter. He had wanted her when he had seen her that very first day at the supermarket.

Sure, he had been snappy with her. But that was only because he was a bit taken aback at how his body had reacted when she had collided with him.

And then she had stammered and sputtered and all he had wanted to do was push her up against the wall and kiss the hell out of her.

Taking the bar of soap, he began washing himself. Glancing down, he saw his cock was a dark shade of purple and looked fucking angry.

He scowled. What he wouldn’t give to have Kara’s body pressed up against him right now.

His scowl turned darker when he remembered how she had been so quick to run away from him before.

Yeah, he had told her to leave.

And yet, some part of him had hoped that she would throw down that box she had been holding on to so tightly, straddle his lap, and make out with him.

To have her perfect tits pressed up against his chest would be heaven. Even better if she had no clothes on.

Pre-cum appeared on the head of his cock, and he groaned. Fuck.

His inappropriate thoughts were only serving to antagonize his cock. Damn it.

Restraining himself made his mood even worse, and by the time he was done with the shower, he was pissed. He wiped himself with the towel and wrapped it around his waist.

Then he stormed out of the bathroom, uncaring that Megan would probably awaken if he wasn’t quiet.

He found her in the kitchen, calmly setting up the table for breakfast. He wanted to push into her from behind and let her feel the hell she was putting him through. But then she turned and looked at him.

The look of surprise on her face was ruined when her cheeks turned pink, her eyes darting to his bare chest and then the towel on his waist.

She opened her mouth to speak, and the small O that her lips formed made him even madder.

“Why the fuck did you run away from me?”

She looked confused. “You told me to leave.”

He scowled and stalked toward her, noting with satisfaction how she leaned back, bracing her arms on the table for support.

The position thrust her breasts out, and his eyes widened when he saw that she still hadn’t worn a bra. The faint outline of her nipples showed clearly.

“Are you doing this to torture me?”

Her mouth opened and closed like a gaping fish. “I don’t understand.”

He pressed up against her so that their chests were almost touching. He saw her tense when his hips aligned with hers, and she could no doubt feel his erection against her thigh.

Unconsciously, his hand came up, and he caressed her cheek with the back of his fingers.

“Why aren’t you wearing a bra?” he said huskily, noting with surprise how soft her cheeks felt.

Her cheeks flared red, and she pushed his chest.

“Excuse me?”

Just like that, his anger fled away, and he almost smiled. He liked driving her crazy way too much.

“Not that I don’t like it,” he murmured. “It’s just very… very distracting.”

She scowled, a small V appearing between her eyebrows. It looked downright painful. He didn’t know it till he had leaned down and pressed his lips to that very spot. Kara went rigid.

“What are you doing?” Her voice was soft and held a note of panic.

“I didn’t like it when you left me in there.” He moved his nose to her hair, liking the way the soft strands tickled his skin.

Her hands were back on the table, so he pressed in further, just a bit, one hand going to hold her waist. This time when she breathed in, her breasts were pushed up right against his chest.

“Adam, don’t—”

“Why? Because you’re waiting for Prince Charming?”

She didn’t answer him, but her body tensed up even more.

He sighed. “I get that, okay? But that doesn’t mean my cock understands that you’re not up for grabs.”

She gasped and turned up to glare at him. “Y-you… you pig!

His hand on her waist tightened and he chuckled. “I think I’ll have to kiss you to make you shut up.”

She pursed her lips and glared back at him.

“Nothing to say to that?” He ran his finger across her cheek, almost losing it when he felt her nipples pebble against his chest.

“Fuck,” he groaned, dropping his forehead to hers.

He saw the slight panic in her eyes, but he strove forward. “Tell me you don’t feel it,” he bit out, daring her to deny the signals her body was screaming out.

To his surprise, she shifted her hips ever so slightly and he found himself cradled right between her thighs.

But she stayed silent.

Adam turned his head and kissed her cheek, his tongue darting out to lick her skin. He heard the small whimper she made in the back of her throat.

Tell me,” he goaded her. “Tell me you don’t think about my tongue in your mouth.” He kissed her eyebrow.

Her hands came up to rest against his chest and he tried not to think of how close her fingers were to his nipple. Her head turned just slightly but she didn’t say a word.

Adam trailed his mouth to the corner of her mouth. “Tell me you don’t think about my head between your legs and my tongue fucking you till the only thing you know is my name.”

Her lips quivered and he felt her legs tremble and move and then she was leaning fully into him. She gasped when the junction between her legs made contact with his thigh.

He forced himself to stay still and not alarm her by rubbing up against her. His cock was pressing into her hip now.

“Adam, I don’t think—”

Shh. Don’t think, Kara. Just feel. Please,” he coaxed her, his lips placing soft kisses along her jaw to the spot right below her ear.

A long torturous moment passed and then he felt her lips on his shoulder. He gripped the table, his knuckles turning white when she nipped his skin lightly, her hips undulating just once against his thigh.

Fuckfuckfuck—

“Adam?”

’Yeah?” he choked out.

Her hand snaked down his chest, slipped underneath his towel and he almost shouted when her fingers slipped around his length, and she held on.

“Oh fuck.”

She tensed up but he pulled her to him tight.

“That…. that feels good.” He swallowed.

“Oh,” she whispered and then moved her hand up along the length, her uncertainty serving to make him even harder.

In response, he began to move his hand from her waist, intending to cup her pussy. But then she tightened her grip and he groaned out loud.

Instantly, he felt the slight dampness on his thigh. Was she—?

Then her thumb grazed the head of his cock, and she bit his neck at the same time. And his control snapped.

He came with a guttural groan that he muffled against her neck, holding her so tight, he was probably crushing her.

Through the fog of ecstasy in his brain, he was dimly aware of Kara tensing up in his arms and then the pulsing of her pussy against his muscle and a burst of wetness that seeped through her shorts to his skin.

When he came down, he heard her ragged breathing that matched his own.

He pulled back, looking down at her shut eyes and her half-open mouth, glancing just once over his shoulder to make sure they were still alone.

When he looked back at her, her eyes were open but a silver glaze. The expression on her face was breathless and her cheeks were a bright red.

He couldn’t resist it and he leaned down, gently brushing his lips on hers and letting them stay for a few seconds till he felt her own pucker up.

He idly moved his mouth back and forth against hers, sucking lightly on her lower lip, completely sated and for some reason wishing the moment wouldn’t end.

The towel was sticky against his cock, and he noted with surprise that she still held him in her hand. Her other hand was wrapped tight around his neck.

When he broke the kiss and looked at her, Kara held his gaze.

“That was incredible.” He brought her closer.

She let out a soft breath. “I-it was.”

He smiled. Then moving her away only slightly, he glanced down at his thigh and saw the moisture gathered there.

He pressed his thumb to it and then looking straight at her, he brought it to his mouth and sucked. Her tangy flavor hit his tongue and he growled.

Her eyes popped wide, and her jaw dropped.

“Lovely,” he licked his thumb once. “Like peaches,” he said softly, right before he kissed her again.

To his delight, she let out the sexiest little moan and melted against him.

And he vowed that this was definitely not the last time he was going to taste her.
