Page 17 of Danger
“Is that why you put this barrier up again? I make you nervous?” he asked. He wasn’t sure if that was a good or bad thing, but he planned on finding out, even if he had to ask her a hundred more questions and endure her rolling her eyes at him for the rest of the night.
Declan slid closer to her in bed, removing the rest of her pillow barrier and he could hear her breath hitch. He was making her nervous now, that was for sure. “Does it make you nervous when I sit this close to you?” he whispered.
“No,” she lied. He slowly ran his hand up her arm and neck, running his fingers through her long, blond hair. “Does it make you nervous when I touch you, Danger?” he asked.
“N-no,” she stuttered. Declan couldn’t help but chuckle at her lie.
“So, if I do this,” he asked, running his hand down her body to her thigh, squeezing it into his big hand, “it doesn’t make you nervous?” Her breathing hitched, and he knew her answer, but she decided to lie to him instead, only making him want to continue the game that they were playing.
“No,” she said, “I’m not nervous at all.”
Declan knew that he was pushing his luck, but he didn’t care. Danger was finally letting him in, just a wee bit, and he just couldn’t seem to help himself. He rolled her under his body, and she hummed her approval. He loved the way that she wrapped her arms and legs around him, tugging him closer. He dipped his head and sealed his lips over hers and when he finally let her up for air, she was panting with need. The way that she looked at him made his soul feel like it was on fire. Declan had never felt like this with any other woman, and even though he’d never say it aloud, he was falling for Danger.
“How about now?” he asked. “Are you feeling nervous now?”
She smiled up at him and shook her head. “Nope,” she whispered. “In fact, I think you should try that again, just to be sure.”
He chuckled and kissed her again, loving the way that Danger took over the kiss, sliding her tongue into his mouth. He broke the kiss and this time he was the one who was a little breathless. “You are dangerous,” he whispered.
“Well, that is my name,” she teased. “I thought that we’ve already gone over this.”
“We have,” he said. “How could I forget the night that we met? It was the best night of my life.”
“If I remember correctly, I held you at gunpoint. I’m not sure how that was the best night of your life,” she said. “Have you not led a happy existence or was it just boring?”
“A little of both,” he admitted. “In a way, I should thank the Dead Rabbits for beating the shit out of me back in Ireland. It lit a fire under my ass to come to America to find my brother and sister. Since I arrived here, my life has definitely not been boring.”
“I’d agree with you—about your life not being boring. I mean, I have been around you since that night, and boring isn’t a word that I’d use to describe you, Declan,” Danger said.
He rolled from the top of her to his side, pulling her along with him. They were laying face to face and all he could think about was how much he wanted her. “If we do this, I won’t want to go back to the way things were. I mean, we really didn’t start as friends, but I don’t want that with you, Danger. If we do this, I’ll want you in my bed every night, so if you aren’t willing to agree to my terms, tell me now.”
Danger pushed him back against the mattress and climbed on top of him, straddling his erection. Even in her t-shirt and panties, she was still the hottest woman he’d ever seen. “I agree to your terms,” she whispered, grinding herself against him. He could feel her heat through his shorts, and it took all his willpower not to strip them both bare and slide into her body.
“Thank fuck, because I want you more than I want my next breath,” he whispered. Danger leaned down and slid her hands through his unruly hair, kissing him like she had done earlier. She was everything he’d ever wanted and never thought that he’d find.
Danger sat up and pulled her shirt up over her body, tossing it to the floor. She was beautiful and Declan couldn’t seem to keep his hands off her. He ran his hands down her breasts, loving the way that she hissed out her breath when he gently pinched her nipples.
“You like that?” he asked.
“Yes,” she hissed. “More, Declan, I need more.” He was willing to give her everything she needed and so much more.
Declan rolled her under his body and kissed his way down her body, loving all the groans she gifted him as he did. “I need to taste you, honey,” he whispered against her skin. Declan slid her panties down her long legs, leaving her completely bare. “You are so beautiful,” he whispered. He kissed his way down her belly, settling between her legs. Danger whimpered and he knew that she was trying to be patient.
“I’ve got you, Danger,” he promised before sliding his tongue over her clit. She was so wet for him and all he could think about was getting inside of her. His unruly cock was just going to have to wait though. He licked and sucked her wet folds into his mouth and when he could tell that she was close, he slid first one, and then a second finger into her pussy. Danger nearly bucked them both off the bed and he threw an arm over her, trying to hold her down.
Danger came for him, shouting out his name and all he wanted to do was make her fully his. “Please, Declan,” she begged. “I need more—I need you.” She tugged at his shorts, and he knew that his time for playing with her was done. He stood and pulled down his shorts, letting his erection spring free.
“Oh,” Danger breathed as she looked him over. Declan was feeling pretty smug as he stroked his cock, giving her a little bit of a show. “You’re a tease,” she said.
“That is something that I have never been accused of,” he insisted. “Are you ready?” he asked.
“Um, yes,” she breathed, “but, Joe’s watching us.”
“He’s a dog. I’m sure that he doesn’t understand what’s going on,” Declan assured. “But if it makes you feel better, I’ll put him in the hallway.” She nodded and Declan ushered Joe out of their bedroom, trying not to notice the sad look on the dog’s face. “It’s only for a little bit, buddy,” he promised.
Danger giggled as he walked back to the bed. “You really love that dog,” she said.
“I don’t want to talk about the dog right now, Danger,” he growled. Declan grabbed her legs and pulled her to the edge of the bed, lining up his cock with her drenched opening. He gave no warning as he slid into her body, causing her to moan out his name. He loved the way she said his name, and he made a mental note to get her to shout it out as much as possible while they were together.
