The Rogue Element

I was almost delirious from the pleasure when it finally happened, and he pulled out of me nearly completely and slammed home again. I howled and rose to meet his next thrust. I felt wild, like madness overtook me and my hips. He gripped me with bruising strength, and that only drove me crazy. I wanted to be closer to him and I couldn’t get any closer.


“Mike…” Jake gasped, his mouth hot and wet near my ear. “I can’t…I need to…”


“Do it,” I moaned. “Do it.” I couldn’t hold myself back any longer.


He pushed into me as deep as he could. It’d been years since I was intimate with anybody and I was so sensitive I almost couldn’t stand it. His gaze was locked on me, and I had to resist the urge to close my eyes and look away, suddenly feeling shy. I knew my own feelings were stamped on my face, and I could only hope that I was right about his because I had never felt so vulnerable.
