Addison began to moan and he slowed his fingers. “Not yet,” he whispered, pulling down her panties and laying her back onto the bed.
He pushed her back a bit, bringing her legs over his shoulders, and just knowing what he was about to do nearly undid her.
One thing she’d found out very early on when it came to AJ was that he was a merciless lover. He enjoyed torturing her, prolonging her climax until she was practically screaming. His tongue circled around, carefully avoiding the perfect spot that would have her panting in seconds. Still, it came just close enough to make her quiver and arch her back in anticipation.
“Tastes so good,” he said as he licked her slit then fucked her with his tongue.
Addison moaned, clutching the bedspread with one hand and his hair with the other; then he teased her, lapping her clit with his tongue ever so lightly. That alone was enough to send shockwaves of pleasures through her body, making her cry out again.
As he’d done in the past and seemed to get so much pleasure from, he backed off, making her moan.
“Don’t stop, please,” she begged breathlessly, her heart ready to plummet, her body ready to explode with just one more touch.
He pulled away completely, yanking his shorts and underwear off, then took her by the hand, walked over to the lounging chair, and sat down fully erect. “Have a seat,” he said, sitting back. “We’ll do this together.”
Her clit was still throbbing and ready to burst. Just the thought of sliding onto him and having his erection rub against the oh-so-tender spot made her entire body quiver. With her heart pounding even more now, she brought one knee to either side of him and sat over him slowly, but she was so wet he slid right in with a moan. He wrapped his big arms around her waist, pushing her down gently, and she took him deep inside.
The moment she started lifting her hips to slide up and down him, she could feel the buildup that’d begun with his skillful tongue. “Oh.” She gasped, biting down on her lip and squeezing her eyes shut as her entire body began to tremble.
He lifted his hips as she came down for maximum penetration, and she moaned even louder, moving faster as the incredible orgasm began to implode. She sat there squirming on his lap as he groaned just as loudly, and incredible bliss ran through every part of her spent body. Even then, she continued to grind into him, wanting it to last forever.
“I love how hard you come,” he whispered in her ear when she finally collapsed against his shoulder.
“I love how hard you make me come,” she said, feeling her face flush even as she still sat there swaying her hips with him inside her.
“I think we have time for a few more rounds.”
Addison giggled since her body was still riding high from that first climax she knew was just the beginning of her evening with her beautiful boyfriend.
Chapter 12
AJ
Curious—not worried or concerned—was what AJ had been when it came to Addison’s past and her reason for having taken a job in Chicago to begin with. He was also curious about what made her decide to make such a life-changing move back to San Diego. She’d since explained about wanting more time with Clair. The position in San Diego allowed her to spend more time working at home. The perk was one AJ was very grateful for as well. Because of her job’s flexibility, she was able to fly out and meet with him at least a few days a week while he was on the road. So he now understood why she preferred this job over the one in Chicago. She’d also mentioned how she’d gotten living in Chicago out of her system.
She told him that when she was a little girl and she’d travel there for some of her dad’s games, there was something about the city she really liked. She just hadn’t anticipated how tedious the snow would get once she was forced to live and commute in it day after day. Even if she didn’t have to report into work five days a week, she did have to take Clair to and from school five days a week.
“It was always exciting in the beginning of winter,” she’d said with a bright smile. “That first snow was so thrilling. But after a few weeks and months of it, we were over it and we still had months of it to come.”
Her explanation had snuffed the notion that had begun to fester. It was convincing enough. AJ had never been a fan of snow either. More than anything he knew if she were holding out on him, if her being out there had anything to do with her ex, it would mean their entire relationship was starting off with a lie. The thought was not one AJ was willing to entertain.
It was the first game of a three-game series he had in St. Louis. Like AJ did when he was home, Bigsby had come over to the Padres’ side of the field to bust some balls. AJ was feeling anxious and not really paying attention to all the guy was saying because it was the first game Addison would be at this week. She’d had to fly home from Pittsburgh early last week. Some big shot was going to be visiting her office that week and she needed to be present. It was one of the few times she said she was ever forced to be in the office almost the whole week: whenever one of these out-of-town big wigs showed up for days at a time.
AJ couldn’t even remember the last time he’d been this anxious. It’d been just over a week since he’d last seen her—touched her—and it was already wreaking havoc on his impatient heart and body.
“So Coke is calling?” Bigsby said with a grin. “I love it.”
“Yeah, I knew you would,” AJ said, rolling his eyes as he swung his bat, warming up.
Pepsi had been a longtime sponsor of Bigsby’s. Now that Coke was courting a deal with AJ, he and Bigsby would have opposing commercials and billboards to compare—just another thing Bigsby could playfully take as a competition and likely milk during these warm-ups.
“Make sure you make it worth your—”
Bigsby stopped talking, and AJ looked at him, wondering why. He was staring at something behind AJ. AJ turned curiously to see what it was. Clair stood a few yards away, watching them a bit apprehensively. Immediately, AJ smiled and glanced around for Addison, but she was nowhere around. The disappointment was just as instant. Had something delayed her being here today?
When he looked back at Clair, he noticed her strange expression. It was troubled—or something—and it made AJ uneasy. He motioned for her to come over, but she shook her head then walked away toward Coach Lara.
“Cute kid.” AJ had forgotten all about Bigsby until that comment, and he turned back to him. “Coach’s grandkid, right?”
“Yeah,” AJ said, a bit absentminded; then he had an alarming thought.
What if something was wrong? Is that why Addison hadn’t made it out?
“I gotta go,” AJ said, rushing toward Clair and the coach.
Clair stood behind her grandfather, still staring in the direction where he’d been standing with Bigsby. Had she not seen AJ walk away from the opposing team’s players?
“Clair,” he called out, and she turned to him then back to Bigsby and a few of the other Cardinals who’d come with him. They were now heading back to the Cardinals’ side of the field.
“Where’s your mom?”
She glanced back at him then behind her. “Around here somewhere.”
Relieved that Addison was there, AJ searched the crowd for her too. His heart thudded the moment he saw her beautiful smiling face through the crowd. But it flattened slowly when he saw who she was smiling and giggling with: a couple of the umps. One of the umps, Caan, was an older veteran AJ knew was married, but the other one was a younger one and still a rookie to the big leagues. AJ didn’t know anything about him. All he knew at the moment was he hated the way the rookie ump was making eyes at and smiling at his Addison.
