  36. About the Author

He sucked his teeth as I went deeper. I loved how much he reacted to my touch; I wanted to make him crazy. Touch him until he lost control.

His shoes and jeans were off within seconds, and finally I had him naked, if only from the waist down. His cock was gorgeous. Uncut with a ruddy tip that was practically begging for my mouth. I ran my tongue from slit to base while Elias whispered encouragements. In one movement I took him as far down as I could. He made a choking sound and clenched his ass hard enough I could feel the muscles flexing where I was holding him.

“Oh, that’s nice.” He moaned as I did my best to take him all the way down to my throat. I looked up as I drew almost all the way out, leaving just the tip in my mouth.

In a breathless voice he said, “I’m not going to last. You’re so good. Can you take me again? I want to see those red lips stretched as I fuck your mouth.”

I gave a slight nod, took him all the way in, and hummed as I started sucking and jacking him in earnest. His thighs started to shake a bit, and soon his breath was coming fast. “I’m right there, konjo.” Within seconds he was spilling down my throat as he panted my name. I swallowed everything he had and then brushed my lips against his thighs, resting my head against him. We stayed like that for a minute. Me kissing his stomach and thighs, him running his hands through my hair.

I stood and helped him out of his shirt without saying a word. He slipped mine over my head as I pulled him to my bed. I didn’t ask him to stay the night, because I knew he couldn’t. But I wanted to pretend, if only for a little while, that Elias and I could do this. That we could make love, then go to bed together. That he didn’t have to go home and lie to his family about who he’d just been with.

I felt so far away from my life here. I could pretend.

In the place where I was supposed to be finding myself, I would lose myself in him.

The sheets were cold when we got in the bed, and Elias pulled me against him so my back was flush with his chest. His skin was smooth and hot against mine, and his kisses on my shoulders made me shiver.
