Unexpected Love (Timid Souls Book 3) by Melanie Munton Page B

started at my belly button, his lips dragging down to the top of my mound and over to each hip bone, his tongue snaking out every now and then to trace a path of his own design. Warmth enveloped me at his attentions, making every extremity tingle in excitement and hum in appreciation.
    Then, he stopped and rested his forehead on my lower belly, breathing deeply. “Anytime I fuck you from here on out, I want you just like this. I want to be able to see all of you when I’m inside of you.” His voice sounded almost tortured but his words were no less adding to my desire. When I didn’t respond, he raised his head and met my eyes. “Understand?”
    What could I say to that? I just nodded and he looked satisfied.
    I wasn’t totally prepared when he suddenly stood back up and pulled his shorts off, leaving him also naked. I’d seen him in all his beautiful glory earlier in the bedroom, and this was no less awe-inspiring as the first experience. Gabe was toned, cut in all the right places, with a light dusting of dark hair covering his torso, and washboard abs that I had only ever seen in movies, never in real life.
    And that erection he was sporting was proportional to the rest of him in every way. Smooth, thick, and wonderfully hard.
    He chuckled when I couldn’t take my eyes off of him. “Don’t worry, baby. My cock is all yours. But let’s get clean first.”
    My eyes connected with his when I broke out of my trance and I shot him a small smile. The old me would have been embarrassed, but I wasn’t going to apologize for appreciating my lover’s body. Gabe was all man and I could look all I wanted. He certainly wasn’t complaining.
    He took my hand and stepped into the bathtub first, his lower legs disappearing beneath the pool of bubbles. He eased himself down into the water and spread his legs, allowing enough room for me, and then pulled on my hand, signaling for me to follow.
    I sucked in a breath at the temperature of the water, though my body quickly adapted. The smell of cherry blossoms filled my nose as I slowly lowered myself into the bubbles and settled against Gabe’s chest, my butt nestling itself right between his legs. His fingers grazed my backside when he reached down to adjust himself so I wouldn’t crush him.
    Then everything went still.
    The sounds of the music, the soft lighting of the room, the steadiness of Gabe’s breathing behind me…everything was perfectly soothing and peaceful.
    I closed my eyes and rested my head back in the crook of Gabe’s neck and shoulder and soaked in the moment. I never knew something could feel so good. Never knew I could trust someone so easily after my past. Never knew I could feel so safe and loved in someone’s arms.
    Gabe grabbed the bottle of champagne and poured the golden liquid into both flutes, handing one to me which I gladly took. The drink was smooth as it went down my throat, a hint of fruit leaving a pleasant aftertaste. No doubt with his money, Gabe had probably spent a pretty penny on the bottle, not that it bothered me in that moment.
    I had my eyes closed again whenever I felt something warm touch my mouth. I parted my lips without opening my eyes and immediately tasted chocolate. A smile graced my lips as I swallowed down the cherry but not before I took Gabe’s finger in my mouth before he could pull away and lightly sucked, reminding him of the bedroom minutes earlier.
    He seemed to understand, letting out a long sigh with a soft groan at the end. “You have no damn idea how good your mouth felt. We’ll be doing that again. But I’m going to be getting some time in with your pussy first.”
    Enough said . I wriggled around a little, attempting to position myself where he would have the best access, but his arm stopped me, pulling me back to him. “Not yet,” he murmured into my hair. “Let’s just lay here and enjoy this right now.”
    That was also fine with me.
    He grabbed a washcloth and some soap and the next thing I knew,
