When Love Comes Around (Love Conquers All) (18 page)

Abruptly breaking the kiss, he swept her up in his powerful arms. With the keen night vision of a large feline, his movements were agile as he made his way through the pitch-dark living area. His strides were long as he took the stairs two at a time with his destination being the master bedroom.

Making his way down the long hallway, he came to a sudden stop, standing at the entryway of his bedroom.
I can’t make love to my wife in that bed.
Reversing his steps led them to the guest bedroom. There was no way he could make love to his woman, his wife, in a bed that had been soiled with past lovers. He needed for their coming together to be on undefiled ground. Starr meant too much to him to disrespect her in such a manner. For once he was about to make meaningful love and not have meaningless sex.

“Wasn’t that your room back there?” Starr whispered in the still, dark house.

Gently laying her on the queen size bed, he gazed deep into questioning eyes. Bending down he placed butterfly kisses on her forehead, nose and lips. “Baby, you’re my wife. I can’t make love to you in my bed.” He hesitated and then added, “It wouldn’t be right.”

Nodding her head let him know she understood exactly where he was coming from. As her gaze continued to hold his, an indescribable emotion swept through her as tears moistened her eyes.
He really does care about me.
Not only had he been patient, never pushing her further than she was willing to go. Now he proved the measure of his worth by refusing to take her to a tainted bed. A bed he shared with more women than she wanted to think about.

Sitting up on her knees, Starr made her way to the edge of the bed. Reaching out she pulled Kevin close, wrapping her arms around his neck. Bringing her lips close to his she could feel his sweet, warm breath. “Thank you for respecting me as your wife.”

Kevin groaned in sexual agony when instead of kissing him, she nibbled on his bottom lip as if it were the most delectable treat she’d ever tasted.. “You’re welcome. Now turn my lip loose. You’re killing me, Mrs. Dawson.”

Sorry…I…can’t…help…my…self…Mr…Dawson...you...have...sexy…lips.” She softly whispered in between tasting his sweet, tender flesh.

I can’t take this torture.
Kevin stepped back from the seductive web she was weaving around him. As he stared at her, gazing up at him begging to be loved, he knew once he was deep inside of her he would be consumed with possessing her forever, never wanting another man to touch her again. Just the thought of some other man’s hands on her, set off a rumbling growl deep in his throat as his jaw clenched and his large hands curled into tight fists. The sudden impact of his emotions took him by surprise. Never before had he cared what a woman did after leaving his bed. Why all of sudden did it matter? Could it be because his feelings ran deeper than what he realized?

Kevin’s sudden change in demeanor frightened Starr. She didn’t like the menacing mask her wore. “Did I do something?”

His expression remained fixed, as he answered, “No.”

“Then why are you staring at me like that?” Starr whispered, past insecurities coming back to haunt her. Self-consciously she wrapped her arms around her waist that wasn’t a size two.

Stepping back into her space the hard mask slipped away as he gently commanded, “Come here, baby.”

Easing off the bed, she made her way to stand in front of him. Starr stood still not knowing what to expect as Kevin took panther like strides circling her body. No longer did his dark piercing gaze frighten her. It suddenly gave her a sexual charge that caused her body to quiver from head to toe. Her breath came out in short uncontrollable pants as he slowly and completely disrobed her.

After shedding her clothing, he took his time visually caressing every soft, sexy curve. When he spoke, his tone held an air of finality. “I don’t want another man to ever see you like this. To do the things to you I’m about to do. After tonight, you
belong
to me. Do you understand?”

Feeling lightheaded, Starr swooned not so much from what he said, but from the deep possessive, seductive pull of his words. Gazing up at this beyond sexy being, her eyelids rapidly fluttered as she struggled to regain her equilibrium. Never in her life had a man outright told her that he wanted her for keeps. Her trembling voice came out on a breathless sigh. “Yes, I understand.”

As he continued to drink in Starr’s rich mahogany, creamy flawless skin, he seductively licked his lips as he contemplated what she tasted like.

Starr sucked in a breath as Kevin reached out and circled a nipple with the tip of his finger. Immediately her body responded to his glorious touch causing the deep, dark chocolate tip to pucker. When he dipped his head, using his tongue in the place of his finger, Starr’s knees slightly buckled. Kevin’s large hands automatically splayed her hips to keep her steady. A long, satisfying purr vibrated in the back of her throat as he drew the chocolate tip between his lips and firmly suckled it sending the hidden treasure between her thighs into an uncontrollable throb.

Eyelids rapidly fluttering, Starr thought she would die when he moved to the other breast giving it equal attention. Surely, she had died and gone to glory when suckling was replaced with hot, wet kisses as Kevin leisurely took his time trailing from her breast to her flat stomach. A wanton moan escaped her lips as a slick, wet tongue dipped into her belly button. Her heartbeat kicked up an alarming rate as her legs were gently parted by strong hands giving her tormentor free reign to place delicate butterfly kisses and nibbles, up and down the interior smoothness of her thighs.

“Kevin.” His name floated from her lips in a husky, passion-filled whisper that was foreign to her own ears. This man,
her
man, made love to her like no other had ever done. He was about to venture where no other man had ever gone.

When he didn’t answer and the hot, searing kisses and nibbles moved closer to her pulsating womanhood a wave of panic overwhelmed her.

“Kevin...don’t…please…stop.”

Between sensual kisses, he mumbled, “Baby, I can’t. Don’t ask me to.”

He had to have all of her. Taste all of her. He dreamed about it night after night. Hell, to be honest he thought about it during every waking hour. Without further hesitation, Kevin indulged his every fantasy.

Digging perfectly manicured nails into bulging muscled shoulders, soft sighs of ecstasy bubbled from the depths of Starr’s being. Her mind was in a sensual haze, as she could not believe the intensity of his intimate kiss. Never before had any of her former lovers been so generous, so attentive.

Soft sighing lingered into purring moans as her trembling body shattered into a million pieces giving her body the most exquisite pleasure she’d ever experienced. Again, for the second time she didn’t recognize her own voice as she screamed Kevin’s name as her sweet release consumed every inch of her, leaving her weak.

Cradling Starr’s limp body, Kevin gently placed her in the center of the bed. Taking a few steps back his eyes held hers in a smoldering gaze. All he wanted to do was love her like he never loved another. He wanted to brand her and to make her his woman, forever.

Not wanting to waste another second, he began to unbutton his shirt. “You know this would go much quicker if you help me.” He told her as a mischievous grin tugged at the corners of his lips.

Not wasting any time, she went to her husband. She wanted him just as bad as he wanted her. Moving his hands away from the front of his shirt, she finished the task of removing his shirt. Anticipation made her hands trembled as she went to his slim waist and unbuckled his belt, and then unfastened his trousers. She was shocked when he gently grabbed his wrist. “I’ll take it from here.” He couldn’t stand how agonizingly slow she was removing his pants. He needed to be inside of her.
Now
!

Slightly moving a few inches back, Starr watched as Kevin quickly shed his pants and underwear in one clean swoop.

“Are you okay?” Kevin asked concerned as Starr took in a deep gasp of air.

Anxious, Starr bit down on the corner of her bottom lip. “I don’t know…”

“You don’t know what baby?”

“If that’s gonna fit.” Starr nervously answered as she pointed to his proud manhood standing at full attention. By all means was she no virgin, but neither Marcus nor Stephen was so well endowed.
Have mercy
.

Advancing forwarding, Kevin steered Starr until the back of her legs grazed the bed.

“What’s the matter? You scared?” He teased.

Starr gasped again. This time somewhat taken aback by his cockiness. Brotha was confident with what he was working with. “I beg your pardon?”

“You don’t have to beg. I’m gonna give you what we both want.”

Momentary irritation fizzled as Starr demurely lowered her eyes and then swept them up to gaze directly into his. “Well, stop talking and give it to me.”
What in the world! Wh
ere
did that come from? I sound like a hussy in heat! I am a hussy in heat!

Aw, hell! This woman is going to be the death of me.
Before she knew what hit her, Kevin picked her up and had her on her back hovering over top of her. When his head dipped down and captured her mouth in a passionate kiss, Starr returned the kiss with just as much heated fervor.

Kevin gently nudged her legs a part with his knee as he positioned himself at her center. With one powerful thrust of his hips he entered her.

Starr winced from the bold intrusion. Kevin went completely still.

“You okay?”

Nodding her head, she mumbled, “It’s just been a really long time.”

“I’ll take it slow.” He promised gently kissing her forehead.

Once her body adjusted, Kevin slowly sunk further into Starr’s moist heat. With slow measured movements he went deep, filling her to the hilt only to retreat to the point of almost withdrawing. It only took her a second or so to pick up on his rhythm, once she had, their movements were fluid and symbiotic. Each time he withdrew to sink back into her, she lifted her hips welcoming him home. Yes, this was his home, a place where no other would be welcomed but him.

Becoming daring, she wrapped her legs around his waist, drawing him in deeper as she boldly stared into deep eyes that mirrored everything she was feeling; a blazing, consuming passion that she had never before experienced. Placing her hands on each side of his face, she pulled his mouth to meet hers. Her tongue invaded every region, desperately trying to extract every essence of sweetness as she stroked, tangled and suckled his tongue. The kiss only added to the explosive heat of their coupling, causing them to frantically pick up the pace of their lovemaking. Each delicious stroke ripped moans of pleasure from places deep within them they both never knew existed.

When she felt herself tumbling over the edge, Starr did the only thing she could do. Give into the turbulent waves that were lifting, taking her higher and higher.

Sensing she was nearing completion, Kevin urged in a deep, sexy whisper as he buried his head in the crook of her neck. “Baby, come with me.”

It was his sensual coaxing that finally pushed her over the edge, sending her crashing into the waves. Kevin had no choice but to be pulled along as he threw his head back, letting out a primitive growl as Starr’s body writhed and quaked beneath him. It necessarily wasn’t the writhing which did him in, but rather the incredible force in which her feminine muscles squeezed him, her body shattering into a million pieces as she screamed his name with her release.

Collapsing on top of Starr, Kevin enveloped her in a tight embrace before reversing their position. The repositioning of their bodies automatically led her to rest her head on his broad chest as her lower body nestled between sturdy muscular thighs.

It had taken a few minutes for their pounding heartbeats and labored breathing to return to normal. The room held a comfortable, satisfying stillness wrapping the lovers in a cocoon of sheer contentment.

“You okay?” Kevin asked in a deep, husky whisper.

Smiling, Starr without shame admitted, “I couldn’t be better.”
Wow, I never knew orgasms could be so…so…darn incredible!

Kevin chuckled. “That good?”

“Mmm hmm, now be quiet so I can go to sleep. You’ve exhausted me.”

He chuckled again. “Oh, so this is how you gonna do a brotha?”

Slightly pushing herself up, she placed a tender kiss on his lips. “Just tonight, I promise.”

“A’ight, I’m holding you to your promise.”

Smiling, Starr snuggled herself back against his broad chest. “Please do, Mr. Dawson.”
