Chapter 11 - Pleasing Luci

After the phone call with her dad, Luci couldn't go back to sleep. Xavier was lying behind her, rubbing her back. She had never had anyone show these little signs of affection without wanting something in return. She began thinking she could get used to this.

"What's got you worried? I can feel the tightness in your shoulders." Xavier enjoyed lying with her and comforting her. It felt like they were the only people in the world.

"My dad hung up because he got a call from Nolan. I'm sure he's going to ask my dad if he knows where I am. Thank you for telling me not to give him the hotel's name. You're right; he may tell Nolan, not realizing he's the one after me. Do you think we're safe here? I don't want them to hurt you trying to get to me."

Luci turned over so she could look at him when he answered her. She breathed in deeply, enjoying his masculine scent floating around her. She looked at his mouth and wondered what it would be like to kiss him.

Not kiss him the way she kissed her lovers. That wasn't kissing; that was just pure lust. Luci wanted to know what it felt like to be kissed by someone who felt something for her. She looked down because she was worried Xavier would be able to read her thoughts.

She wasn't ready to accept him as her mate, so she didn't feel right asking him to kiss her. Luci was worried it would make him think she was giving in to him. Even if the thought of what it would be like to be Xavier's mate had crossed her mind, she wasn't ready to admit it.

"I think we're okay for now. If they find us, we can fight them. I won't let them hurt you. Whether you have accepted me or not, you're my mate, and I'll protect you." Xavier reached over and lightly brushed the hair out of her face.

He watched Luci closer her eyes at the simple gesture. He knew she didn't want to admit she was starting to feel something for him. She moved closer so part of her body was touching his. Everywhere they touched was sending little sparks between them.

Luci wanted to touch Xavier but didn't know how to show affection. She told herself that friends could touch each other in a kind way. It didn't have to be sexual.

She reached over and tentatively rubbed her hand up Xavier's arm. She could feel his bulging bicep under his t-shirt, and touching him like this aroused her. Luci saw Xavier close his eyes as she ran her hand over his arm. She decided to explore more and see how it affected them both.

She took her finger and traced the hard muscles of his chest and abdomen through his shirt. Luci felt her arousal growing, and she knew it was for Xavier, too. His huge penis was pushing on her leg. She smiled, liking that her simple touch could have such an effect on him.

"Can I ask you for a favor?" Luci asked while still tracing his muscles.

"You can ask me anything." Xavier was having a difficult time keeping his breathing under control.

"I know this is unfair when I haven't accepted you, but will you kiss me? I've never kissed anyone that wasn't just with me to get into my pants. I know with the mate bond if we kiss, it will be more intense and have more meaning, but I want to kiss you. I want a real kiss, not a little peck." Luci looked down, her face a little red. She had never asked anyone to kiss her. She usually just did whatever she wanted, but Xavier was different.

He couldn't believe what she'd asked. He'd been dreaming about kissing her since the first time he laid eyes on her. He understood what Luci meant when she said the others who kissed her were different. They didn't have any feelings toward her as Xavier did.

"I'll kiss you, but I want to say something before I do. I know you have felt the sparks between us from the mate bond, and it will be even stronger when we kiss. I don't want you to feel like you have to give in to it because you don't. I won't make love to you until you accept me as your mate. Not because I don't want to, but because it would make your rejection a hundred times worse after we have been intimate."

Luci looked up at Xavier in surprise. There were several things he said that shocked her. The first was that he would kiss her. The second was that the mate bond would make her feelings even stronger. What surprised her the most was when he said he wasn't ready to make love to her.

No one had ever used the term make love when talking about having sex with her. That term made Luci blush a little. Men had talked raunchy to her, which never made her blush. However, the words make love made her feel like a schoolgirl.

"I promise I won't jump your bones when you kiss me." Luci smiled at him with a twinkle in her eye, and Xavier thought his heart had stopped. She looked so young and innocent at that moment.

Xavier slowly lowered his face to hers. Luci's heart was beating loudly in anticipation. She closed her eyes when their lips touched and gasped when the electricity flowed through her body. He hungrily moved his mouth over hers, and she responded just as hungry.

When Xavier ran his tongue over her lips, she opened her mouth willingly. Their tounges stroked each other intensely, making Luci so hot she felt her panties getting wet. She began aching with a need stronger than she had ever felt before. Xavier's hard erection pushed against her through his boxers, turning her on even more.

Luci wanted to roll over and let him enter her, but she remembered what he said. He didn't want to make love to her until she was ready to accept him as her mate. She tried to control the ache between her legs as he kissed her. When he pulled back, they were both breathing heavily and to her delight, he wasn't done.

Xavier kissed her cheek and the tip of her nose before running light kisses down her jaw to her neck. While kissing her neck, he sucked a little and nibbled her skin. Luci moaned in pleasure as her panties were getting drenched. When he was done, he looked at her with a smirk.

"Was that what you wanted?" Xavier let her feel how much he wanted her by allowing his erection to push against her thigh. Zeke was in his head doing backflips because they could smell how aroused she was.

"Damn, if I knew it would be like that, I would have told you to kiss me the first time I saw you. I see what you meant about wanting more because I was ready to pull you on top of me to calm the ache between my legs." Xavier looked at her with a smile.

"Are you still feeling that ache now?"

"Something that intense doesn't go away quickly. I know you don't want to do more right now, and I understand, so don't worry about it." Luci smiled at him even though she needed a release. She gasped when she felt Xavier's hand sliding up her thigh and playing with the top of her pajama pants.

"I said I'm not ready to make love to you, but I can help that ache if you want me to. Just say the word." He ran his finger back down her thigh and toward her center. His finger lightly rubbed between her legs through her pants, and Luci moaned as she spread her legs for him.

"I don't want to make you uncomfortable. You don't have to take care of my needs." Even as she said this, she wanted to beg for more.

"Pleasing, you will please me."

Xavier kissed her on the mouth again, sending those shocks through her body, only this time he stroked her between her legs. She raised her hips, wanting more contact, and he obliged.

He kissed her face, jaw, and neck again, slowly moving down. Luci raised her shirt, wanting to feel his mouth on her skin to make that tingling last. She almost came off the bed from pleasure when he pulled one of her nipples into his mouth and began lightly sucking. He ran his tongue around her hard bud before sucking again.

Luci had never felt anything so intense in her life. She arched her back. Xavier moved over to her other breast and gave it the same treatment. When he finished with her breasts, he continued kissing down her body.

He quickly pulled her pants and panties off before rubbing his finger over her swollen clit. Luci felt a new wave of pleasure wash over her and spread her legs even more. Xavier smiled as he continued playing with the little bud with his thumb while sliding a finger inside her stroking her walls.

Luci was squirming with need caused by his slow torturous actions. He moved his hand when she didn't think she could take anymore. She looked down, dazed, wondering where he went because she was about to come. Her eyes widened when she saw him positioning his face between her legs.

"I'm going to make you feel so good you won't know what hit you. Don't hold back. I want to taste all of your sweetness." Luci almost came just from his words alone. She knew she was probably making a puddle on the bed.

When she felt Xavier's hot breath between her legs, she squirmed in anticipation. She didn't have to wait long as she felt his tongue swirling around her clit before he lightly sucked it. She threw her head back and screamed.

Xavier shifted and stuck his tongue deep into the source of her heat. He moved his tongue around her walls, licking and sucking. She moved one of her hands into his hair and held his head in place, not wanting him to stop.

He moved back and forth, licking her to sucking her clit, and it drove her wild. When Xavier stuck his tongue in as far as he could, he slid it in and out rapidly. That was all it took for her orgasm to take over.

Luci's whole body was shaking from the intensity. She thought she might black out from the power of it. She had never had anything so mind-blowing before. Luci came even more when she felt Xavier still licking up everything pouring out of her.

When she was done, she couldn't move. She felt like she had become one with the mattress, and she only came back to reality when she heard Xavier chuckling while running his hand over her stomach.

"Did that help the ache?" Xavier felt satisfied seeing her reaction. Her eyes were glazed over, and she wasn't moving.

"I've never felt anything like that before. Only a few men have taken care of me orally as you did. Most of them were only worried about their own needs. What you did was better than any sex I have ever had with anyone." Luci was still in shock from all the feelings he had caused her. She felt a little guilty, too, because she knew he was still hard as a rock.

"Would you like me to help you get your release? I know you can't be satisfied by taking care of me. I'll give you the same." Luci moved her hand to the hard bulge in his boxers and stroked him.

Xavier grunted in pleasure when he felt her hand playing with him. He was getting bigger by the second. As much as it pained him to have her stop, he did.

"No, I don't need that right now. If you keep rubbing me, I may be unable to control myself. I'll take care of all your needs as often as you want me to, but mine will wait until you accept me." Luci couldn't believe what he said. What man would put her needs above his?

"You're one of a kind. Who knows, maybe you won't have to wait as long as you think. I mean, no other man could compare what you just did." With that, she jumped up and headed to the bathroom to shower.

Xavier stared at her beautiful naked body as she sashayed into the bathroom. It took all of his self-control not to go after her, but he meant what he said. His needs would wait.

He rolled over in the bed with a smile and thought about what she had said. Maybe she was getting closer to accepting him. Then he could really show her how good their lovemaking would be.
