“We’ll start here.”

When their lips touched, she felt as if she’d melted on the spot. His mouth was delicious, his tongue sending pinpricks of sensation all over her body.

Nathan wrapped his arm around her waist and tugged her closer. She responded with a moan of absolute delight.

She hadn’t realized how much she’d wanted his mouth on hers until right now. And now that she had it, she wanted to stay like this for hours, exploring and tasting. But she knew she couldn’t risk it, so she pulled away.

Nathan arched a brow. “I’m hoping you had something more in mind than just a short make-out session.”

“I do. It’s your birthday present.”

She caught the sparkle in his eye.

“Oh, good. I hope my present involves you getting naked.”

“We might get there at some point tonight. But for now?” She grabbed a thick coat out of the box marked “Lost and Found” and propped it on the wood floor.

Nathan looked down at Mia. “Are you serious?”

Mia didn’t answer, just gave him the hottest smile with her gorgeous, red-painted full lips. Nathan’s cock rose to attention, and when she unzipped his pants, he couldn’t think of anything he wanted more than Mia’s sexy mouth wrapped around his dick.

She reached into his pants and rubbed his shaft. He was pretty sure he forgot how to breathe.

And when she pulled his pants down and then his boxer briefs, her warm hand circling his cock, he let out a groan. Fortunately, the venue was loud and there was music, and hell, he tuned it all out anyway. All he cared about right now was Mia, the way she looked up at him, that fiery blue light in her eyes as she leaned in and put her lips over him.

“Christ.”

Her mouth was wet heat, her lips suctioning around him as she brought him into her mouth.

“Oh, fuck yeah. Suck it, Mia.”

He didn’t know what he’d done to deserve this, but all rational thought fled as she bobbed her head forward and engulfed him. He’d never felt anything so good, so torturously, mind-alteringly hot in his life. His balls tightened and he could blow his load right now into her sweet, hot mouth. But he wanted these amazing sensations to linger, wanted to watch the way his cock kept disappearing and reappearing in and out of Mia’s mouth. He could hold back. He could wait.

But then she cupped his balls and gave them a light massage as she pressed the roof of her mouth down over his cock and flicked her tongue over his shaft.

He wrapped his hand around her head, needing to control her movements.

“Just like that. Oh, fuck, suck it like that.”

And for all that was holy he thought he was a master at control but Mia was the mistress of blow jobs and he could only take so much.

“I’m gonna lose it here, babe,” he said, so into the rhythm he found himself shoving his hips forward, feeding his cock into her mouth deeper and deeper until the first spurts of come jettisoned from his cock. And then it was like an explosion. He might have yelled as he came. He didn’t know, because his brain exploded with his orgasm and he felt light-headed, palming the wall for support as Mia took what he gave her. He watched her throat work and it was so damn hot it made his knees weak.

He wasn’t even sure he was breathing when it was over. In fact, he was pretty sure his heart had stopped a long time ago.

Maybe he was dead. If he was, that had been one hell of a way to go.

Mia finally let go of him and he pulled her up and took her mouth in a hot kiss that made her moan and got him fired up all over again.

He rubbed her bottom lip with his thumb. “I’m not sure, because I think you blew my brains out my ears with that blow job, but I am almost certain I mentioned something about wanting to lick your pussy. And then we came in here and it was all about me, not all about you.”

She gave him a wry smile. “It’s not my birthday today.”

“So, can it be my birthday every week?”

She laughed. “No. But I sure enjoyed that.”

“I know I did.” He looked around and found a sturdy-looking table at the back of the closet. “And there’s something else I’ll enjoy.”

He led Mia to the back of the closet, then picked her up and sat her on the table. He spread her legs and lifted her dress over her hips.

She shuddered, then looked up at him. “I don’t know, Nathan. We’ve already been gone awhile. We should get back to the party.”

He knelt on the floor between her legs. “I promise I’ll make you come fast.”

The scent of her as he pulled her underwear to the side was enough to make him hard again. And the look on her face when he smoothed his hand over her thighs spurred him on to make this good for her. He could tell she was pent up and needy.

Yeah, he knew what that was like.

He flicked his tongue over her clit, heard her deep breath and wanted to give her more. So he put his mouth over her and laid his tongue flat.

She moaned, a long, low sound that told him he’d hit the right spot.

She tasted like salty honey as he smoothed his tongue over her and inside of her. She leaned back on her elbows and spread her legs wider, giving him full access. And when he slid a finger inside of her, she released a sound that made his balls quiver.

“Oh, yes. Just like that, Nathan. Fuck me with your finger and suck my clit.”

He loved how verbal she was, that she gave him direction and told him what she liked. And damn if he didn’t love giving it to her. And when she began to writhe against him, he knew she was close, so he pressed his tongue harder against her clit, rolling it over and over to give her the rhythm she needed to fall right over that cliff into orgasm.

“Oh, yes. I’m coming. I’m coming.”

He bathed her pussy as she rocketed through her climax, using his lips and tongue to ratchet up her pleasure. She reached out for him and he grabbed her hand, giving her something to hold on to as she rolled through the spasms.

Then he kissed her thigh and stood up to smile at her.

She finally lifted her head. “Holy shit, Nathan.”

His lips curved. He righted her underwear, smoothed her dress back in place and lifted her off the table, making sure to hold her in place while she got her bearings.

She lifted up and kissed him. “Thank you.”

“Yeah, that was fun.”

“And now you really need to get back to your friends and family.” She brushed her fingertip over his lips. “But first, stop in the restroom and wash your face.”

He laughed. “Yeah, I’ll do that.”

He started to leave, but then turned to her and pulled her into his arms. “We’re going to continue this later. Naked. I want to be inside of you.”

She looked up at him, her beautiful blue eyes clear as she met his gaze and nodded. “Yes.”

He’d expected argument or waffling. There’d been none. He was happy about that. He brushed his lips across hers. “See you later.”

She nodded and he stepped away, unlocked the door and ducked out.

He smiled as he made his way to the men’s room.

Best damn birthday ever.

NINETEEN

THE PARTY WRAPPED UP AROUND MIDNIGHT. MIA WAS surprised that so many people had stayed that long, but then again they had the deejay and a dance floor and the bars, so of course everyone wanted to party. Nathan’s grandparents had stayed ’til the end, and had even been out on the floor dancing with everybody.

She was so happy about the turnout, and it seemed everyone had a great time.

The best part was, Tara had brought in a cleanup crew, so they didn’t have to stay to clean up this mess.

“You’re the best, Tara.” Mia hugged her.

Tara gave her a squeeze back. “You’re the one who took care of the invites. I was blown away by how many of Nathan’s friends and teammates showed up.”

“And you brought in the family in droves. He was so happy about that.”

Tara grinned. “Well, we’re just awesome, aren’t we?”

Mia laughed. “I guess we are.”

“Hey, anytime you want to leave sports management and come to work for me, you’d make an incredible event planner.”

“It’s good to have a backup plan. Thanks, Tara. Especially since my start-up is new. You just never know.”
