Page 69 of Perfect Enough
My words faded away as he stopped walking, and our gazes met. “Do you not want this yet, Soph?”
“I do! I mean, I want to be with you. Badly. In whatever way you’re ready for.”
He kissed me quickly and then started for his bedroom again. Once inside, he slowly lowered me to the floor. “May I undress you, Soph?”
Okay, am I dreaming? I have to be dreaming, because how more perfect could this man get?
I nodded even as I reached for his shirt. He allowed me to pull it over his head. I dropped it to the floor and just stared at the man before me. I hadn’t had a chance to really take him in the night before. Josh was beyond beautiful. He had broad shoulders and a massive chest with muscles that jumped under the touch of my fingertips as I slowly explored his body. My fingers drifted lower, until they went over the most toned set of abs I’d ever seen.
“God. You really do work out a lot, Mr. Shaw.”
He chuckled.
When my hand fell to his jeans, he sucked in a breath. My eyes lifted to his. “Yes?”
With a shake of his head, he said, “Not yet. I’m afraid the moment you touch me, I’ll explode.”
I drew my lower lip into my mouth and bit down. I loved that my touch had just as much of an impact on him as Josh’s had on me.
He slowly pulled my shirt over my head and dropped it on top of his own. Then stared at me for so long, I was about to ask him if he was okay. But before I did, he bent and placed a soft kiss right on the edge of my bra. He followed that with another…then sucked on the skin. Hard. I groaned, and my head fell back when his tongue came out to soothe the area.
I wasn’t even aware he’d unclasped my bra until I felt it moving down my arms. I cried out when his mouth took my nipple. Pushing my fingers into his hair, I drew him closer to me.
“Josh,” I whispered, as he moved to the other nipple and gave it just as much attention. He bit gently, making me cry out again, then went back to soothing with his tongue and cool bursts of breath.
“Oh, God,” I panted as his hands went to the button of my jeans. When I dragged my gaze down to watch, he went to his knees to remove my jeans and toss them to the side. Then he placed his hands on my ass and pulled me to him. He kissed me through my panties, and the heat from his breath caused me to gasp and grab hold of his hair.
“Jesus!” I cried out, attempting to remain standing when all my legs wanted to do was buckle out from underneath me.
He stood quickly and cupped my face, kissing me passionately as he backed me toward the bed. Once my legs hit the mattress, I sat down, breaking the kiss between us.
Josh looked down at me and said, “Climb up farther onto the bed, Soph.”
I had never scrambled back so fast in my entire life. I knew we wouldn’t be making love yet, and I was okay with that. I wanted him, but I wanted him to besure, more than anything.
He took hold of the waistband on my panties. “Lift up.”
The moment I lifted my hips, he had my panties sliding down and off my legs. Then he simply stood there and stared at me, naked on his bed.
“You are the most beautiful woman I haveeverlaid eyes on, Sophia.”
“Touch me, Josh. Please.”
He crawled onto the bed and over me, pressing his mouth to mine, and we got lost in another kiss. When I felt his hand move up my leg, I jumped.
“Are you okay?” he asked softly against my ear.
“God, yes! Please don’t stop.”
“You’re sure?”
I grabbed onto his shoulders. “Josh,please.”
He chuckled and kissed down my neck. “You never have to beg.”
My eyes squeezed shut when I felt him pull my leg to the side. I dropped them open for him, and when he swept his fingers over my core, I cried out. It wouldn’t take much to make me come, that was clear.
He slipped two fingers inside me, and I sighed in pleasure. I hadn’t even noticed his mouth had moved lower to cover my nipple. He sucked and licked as his fingers slowly moved in and out of my body.
