“Yes,” Lily gasped, leaning back to pull the shirt over her head. Then she pushed at Chase’s underwear. “These too.”

Chase bridged her back and pushed them down as Lily rose to her knees and pulled hers off, lifting one leg and then the other to strip them down her calves and drop them on the floor. Then they were naked together, and everywhere they touched was fire. Lily played her fingers over the taut muscles and smooth skin of Chase’s middle until she reached her breasts. Caressing her, molding her breast in one hand, she kissed Chase’s jaw and the side of her neck, found her mouth again. Chase’s hands roamed over her as if she couldn’t touch her enough, sliding down her back, clasping her hips and drawing Lily hard against her, forcing Lily to rock against her thigh until every stroke was blissful agony.

Lily threw her head back and swallowed a cry as the pressure turned to a rush of electrifying pleasure. “Chase…”

“Don’t stop, Lily,” Chase said, an order and a plea. “Don’t stop.”

Lily reached out, blind with the surge of release, and Chase’s hand gripped her. Her hips rolled of their own accord, hard sharp thrusts until she came with a jolt, her body bucking with each titanic contraction. Cries ripped from her throat as her neck arched and her eyes lost focus.

Chase sat up, her arms around Lily’s waist and her mouth to Lily’s throat, holding her as she shuddered.

“You’re so fucking beautiful,” Chase gasped. “More beautiful than anything I’ve ever seen.”

Lily draped her arms around Chase’s shoulders and rested her forehead against Chase’s, panting for breath. “God, I don’t know where that came from.”

Chase chuckled. “I think you do. At least I hope so.”

Lily laughed shakily. “All right. Yes. You’re fantastic.”

“I haven’t even gotten started.” Chase lowered her head and brushed a kiss across Lily’s nipple.

Lily tightened inside again but managed to keep the quaver from her voice. “Well, you’ll have to be patient.”

Chase snorted. “Not likely.”

The predawn sky had begun to lighten, and Lily read the stubborn set of Chase’s features. She smiled. Chase liked to be in charge. Not that she would mind that, but right now she had something else she wanted. Very much. Lily finally gathered her strength and pushed Chase back down against the sofa, holding her there with a palm against her chest. “Be still.”

Chase could have easily ignored her command, but she obediently relented. Her body beneath Lily quivered with the effort, and Lily instantly wanted to come again. She bit her lip and took a deep breath. “I’m not done with you.”

“Please.” Chase gritted her teeth. “Lily. Come on.”
