An open flame, Shanice, C Ward [best books to read for success .txt] 📗

but still looked as though she was in her late twenties. She was flawless. She embraced me with a tight warm hug, I smelt her perfume when she got close enough, it was strong but nice very fruity, she pulled away and held me at arm’s length to study me, ‘You get more beautiful every time I see you baby girl’ she stated, I just smiled at her, ‘Do you want to come in, or should we get going?’ I asked so not to be rude, as much as I enjoyed my mother’s company I rarely saw her so it was sometimes an awkward situation to be in with nobody around to mingle with or to create a conversation with so not to have to put too much effort into the affair. She shook her head, I knew she wouldn’t come in, she never did, but I was over that now, so we headed down to her car as she always insisted on driving herself to places, even though she is rich because my father gave her some money for the divorce and because she inherited a lot from her own father she never wanted a chauffeur, she preferred not to rely upon anybody else. We headed into Birmingham city centre to shop the day away.

 

After countless hours of shopping, I arrived back at my apartment with four boxes of shoes and six bags full of clothes. The apartment was silent, it was a little after three in the afternoon so Leila was probably still out with Richard. I savoured the time alone to dump the new items on my bedroom floor by the closets, I was hot and sticky from the shopping trip, it was late June and the weather was getting so much warmer, it was nice but it was a lot to keep on top of, turning the shower on, I walked back into the bedroom to check my phone, 2 messages, unlocking my phone I seen that one message was from Leila and the other from Tobias. I selected Leila’s message first,

‘Hey hun, won’t be back this evening so don’t wait up, I’m going back to Richards after this movie, The purge 2, looked pretty decent in the trailers, catch you around though, have fun, but not too much xox’

 

‘Ooh tell me if it’s good or not, you and this Richard guy seem sorta serious, are you dating him? You never get attached to a guy, have fun though, see you tomorrow or something C xx’

I scrolled down to my next unread message from Tobias,

I’m glad to hear that last night was perfect for you, it was for me too, and unfortunately work seems very dull and boring in comparison to where I’d rather be, which is with you, I know it seems strange but just thinking about you puts me in a happier place, even after only seeing you twice, do you want to meet up tonight? T xo’

Grinning at my phone I felt a fluttering in the pool of my stomach, butterflies, I had butterflies, I never felt this giddy over a guy since, well, I never have, this is a new feeling for me, usually I just chat with a guy and one thing leads to another but this is different, I actually like liking him and enjoy seeing him- not just because of his irresistible god like features but just because him. Mmm, I typed my response as quick as I could remembering that I had left my shower running and waiting for me.

‘I’d rather be with you too, so much warmer, well I’m heading for a shower now so tonight sounds great, where do you want to meet up? C xx’

I had barely reached the shower when I heard my phone signal a text, I’d check it after my shower. I showered for 35 minutes thinking about Tobias’ touch and how it would feel to be held by him, I washed slowly and used my new strawberry and cream shower gel and strawberry shampoo and conditioner set. Mmm strawberries, I spent the next 5 minutes drying my hair in front of the vanity mirror, once I was done I shrugged on my white silk thigh length dressing gown collected my phone and headed off to the kitchen to get some strawberries and white wine, unlocking my phone along the way to see who the message was from- my heart stopped, and then fluttered back to life,

‘I’ll meet you at yours I’ll be there in 45 minutes, can’t wait to see you, T xo’

I felt excited, giddy and nervous at the same time, I had five minutes before he turned up peering down at myself I was suddenly aware that if I didn’t get changed fast he was going to be greeted by a half- naked female only wearing a dressing gown. I turned on my heel as quick as I could leaving the opened bottle of wine and strawberries on the countertop, pacing into the bedroom I opened my underwear drawer pulled out a lacey pair of white panties and slid them into place followed by some nude stockings, I was about to go into my closet get a dress when the doorbell rang ‘Shit’ I muttered to myself, I kicked the bags under my bed and shut the door, pulling my robe into place and pacing towards the front door I gathered my bearings and opened the door, His breathing hitched audibly and the bouquet of roses fell to his side as his eyes soaked me in, I ushered him inside whilst my cheeks reddened, I could feel them heating up beneath my skin, my nipples hardening just from the sight of him. ‘Excuse my appearance, I read your text just as I got out the shower, I-’ his mouth dropped open, he closed it again and then it reopened, it was as though he was mimicking a goldfish, I blushed once more shutting the door as he stepped around it, I now had my back pressed against the door whilst his eyes were following me, tracing my entire body from head to toe, ‘I don’t mean to sound rude but, shit you look incredible, divine actually, words can’t even’ I didn’t know whether to feel embarrassed or grateful for the compliment. I gestured towards the kitchen, he followed me, I stood behind the countertops and offered him a seat at the breakfast bar, he glanced at his hands, looked momentarily surprised, cleared his throat and then said ‘Erm, these are for you, I don’t know if you have a vase or not but yeah, yours’ he laughed at himself holding the roses out for me ‘I’m not usually this lost for words but you’re quite the distraction’ I licked my lips and my thoughts agreed with him but with him being the distraction, his hair all wild around his face, wearing light blue jeans with a white shirt tucked into them undone at the top button, I just wanted to peel that shirt off him- ‘Yeah I have a vase, I’ll fetch it, thankyou’ I was about to bend down into the cupboard but then I remembered the lack of clothing and the piercing grey eyes that would surely be watching me, so I bent down to collect the vase, filled it with water and then swiftly walked over to him to put the roses inside. I then put the vase in the centre of the breakfast bar. Walking around to sit next to him on a stool I offered him a glass of wine, he managed a nod with his grey eyes deep in concentration, I then offered him some strawberries. We sat there eating strawberries staring at each other, I was very aware of my aching breast beneath the very thin soft silk fabric, the thinnest barrier between myself and Tobias, it was so hard to keep my self-restraint but I wasn’t going to throw myself at him. We reached for a strawberry at the same time, that electric charge sending my body over the edge, my self restraint gone I stood before him and dropped my robe, his gasp was so loud, my breasts had swelled and my nipples had elongated and hardened for him, I stepped an inch closer to cup his face, I kissed him once, twice and the third time he was with me matching my lips, he pulled me closely holding my bare back against his fully clothed body, ‘I. Felt.. It… too’ he managed between the kissed. The electric charge I thought. Oh, I melted into him, kissing him, savouring him, suddenly I felt his fingers fondling my panties, hooking them with his thumbs, pulling them down, I parted my legs so that he could move them faster, although I was still aware he was fully clothed, he carried me over to the sofa, leaving my panties and robe in a pile on the kitchen floor he spread me across the sofa, panting from the kiss I watched him undress himself, kicking off his shoes as he undone his shirt and shrugged out of it, I sat up the undo his trousers, he yanked them down with a quick thrust. Lowering his neck Tobias pressed his mouth into the crook of my neck arching for him he kissed me once, twice, then sucked my neck, biting and kissing, I was lost in him, he began trailing my body with his hands cupping my breasts, circling my nipples with his thumbs, he smiled at me and swooped down to suck my nipples, ‘ahh’ throwing my head back to relish the sensation, with each suck I felt a throb between my legs, I unhooked my leg from beneath him, and wrapped my legs around his waist, urging his body towards mine, I felt the barrier of the cotton from his boxer briefs, his hard length straining against them, I reached down the best as I could to free him, and as soon as the boxers were gone I began pumping him with my fist, Once, twice, from root to tip, over and over, I felt his pleasure as he sucked harder on my nipples, I wanted him to take me, I wrapped my legs around his waist and urged his length towards the entrance to my sex, I felt the heat of his body, he was trying his hardest to hold back, but his hips were rocking shamelessly rubbing himself against me, I wanted him to thrust deep inside, I pulled his head up to mie, his face looked pained but I could see that it was because he wanted this, so bad, ‘It’s okay I’m on birth control’ his eyes lit up like fireworks and with that he buried his face in my neck and slowly pushed his hard thick length inside me, the tip filled me instantly stretching me, pleasure radiating through my body, the sensation almost too much but it didn’t stop his length penetrated me further, filling me, taking me, he buried himself into me completely stretching me completely, the pleasure felt too good, when he began to pull out the sensation continued to build radiating through my body over and over, penetrating and retracting it was too much I struggled to keep up with him, trying desperately to match his thrusts but the pleasure was too much, it was paralysing me, I couldn’t move, it was overwhelmingly good, my body began to quiver, our breathing began to increase and rapidly got deeper and faster with ever movement, building and building until our bodies had to let go, we released at the same time, ‘Tobias, oh god, Tob-‘ I called out as he bit into my neck, milking each other until it was over we lay there trying to recover, it lasted a little while, still joined, lying in our sweaty mess, breathing slow and deep, enjoying the after math of our powerful explosion, I’d never had a better
