Free Blood Moon (Moon Books) by M.J. O'Shea

fumbling with buckles and zippers. I needed him to be naked as fast as possible. He lifted himself off the bed for a minute to make my job easier. Finally, I could push his jeans down past his hips and free the thick erection I couldn’t wait to taste and feel. He started tugging on my zipper too, obviously wanting me as naked as him. I couldn’t help him quickly enough. We laughed when my jeans got caught on my feet and Noah had to get off the bed to yank them off. When we were finally free of our inconvenient clothes, he crawled back over me and sank down, pinning me to the bed with his body.
    I moaned softly when our skin connected. I didn’t think I’d ever felt anything so perfect. We ground our pelvises together, hard erections leaking all over the skin of our stomachs. Noah trembled and propped himself up on his elbows, cupping my face with his hands.
    “I’ve loved you for so long,” he murmured and kissed me with velvet soft lips. “It almost seems like this can’t be real.”
    “I know what you mean. Part of me feels like if I close my eyes you’ll disappear.”
    “Not going to disappear. I promise.” He rubbed his nose against mine in a gesture so sweet and tender it made my breath catch in my throat.
    I pulled him close and whispered, “I love you” in his ear before I wrapped my legs around him and arched up so he could feel just how much I wanted him.
    Noah tilted my head back. “You ready?”
    I gulped and nodded.
    He leaned forward and licked my neck like he had earlier that day. But instead of pulling away, I felt a short sharp jab, then the most incredible ecstasy imaginable engulfed me.
    Noah groaned against my skin and if anything the feelings intensified. Lust and love careened between us making both of our hearts pound violently in our chests. My toes curled into the sheets and I arched off the bed, moaning wildly and clutching at any part of him that I could reach.
    It only lasted ten seconds but by the end I was so close to coming that I was incoherent. Noah drew away, licking the small bite marks gently. He looked just as shaken as me.
    I reached up with a trembling hand and pulled his mouth to mine. I felt primal and heated. It was hard to breathe with our lips suctioned together but I didn’t care. His tongue claiming me made me groan. He touched me everywhere, his hands sliding up and down my arms, nails scraping lightly over the nerve-filled skin on my lower back. I shivered violently and ground my hips against him hard. He hitched my leg up over his hip and brushed his fingers against the soft skin of my entrance.
    “I need you, Noh.”
    “Need you too.” He slipped a hand between us and gripped my throbbing shaft. I was so turned on that I could barely stand to be touched.
    “Inside. Please.”
    “Now?” His body quaked over mine.
    I couldn’t talk anymore so I just nodded.
    He crawled on shaky legs to his nightstand, pulling out lube and a condom. I could see through my haze of need that he was nervous. I loved that this was so important to him. When he got back to me, he leaned over and brushed his lips against mine. I nipped at his lower lip gently and rubbed my cheek against him. His hands trembled slightly as he poured lube onto his fingers.
    The relief I felt when his fingers slipped into me was immense but short lived. I sighed and arched my back, pushing against the pressure of his hand, wanting more. I reached blindly for him and spread my legs wider, needing his body.
    “Please,” I repeated. It was all I needed to say.
    He sat back on his heels, reaching for the condom. I heard him fumbling with the package.
    “Noah?”
    “Yeah?”
    “Have you ever done it without one?”
    “No. I never actually needed condoms, but it always felt like it would be too...intimate or something.”
    “I haven’t either.” I reached up and took the condom from his trembling fingers. “Maybe we can be each other’s first after all.”
    He nodded, smiling and I threw the
