Free Healing Her Spirit (Serenity Springs Book 2) by Dawn Sullivan

Chuckling, Clint lowered his mouth and flicked his tongue over her clit, smiling in satisfaction as she screamed his name.  Moving his fingers in and out of her tight sheath, he sucked on her clit before moving his tongue over it quickly.  Lacey screamed his name as she came hard.
    Unable to wait any longer, Clint stood and quickly removed his jeans and briefs.  Lacey’s eyes widened when she took in his length, and Clint laughed.  Reaching down, Clint encircled his cock in his hand.  As he stroked himself slowly, Lacey’s eyes narrowed and she licked her lips.  “Oh no, you don’t,” Clint said as he crawled onto the bed and up her body.  “If you touch me with those lips I’m not going to make it.”  When she would have protested, he shook his head.  “I have waited a long time to be inside of you, Lacey Donovan.  I’m not going to come like a school boy before I get there.” Leaning over her, he opened the bedside table and grabbed a condom.  When she raised her eyebrows, he grinned, “Wishful thinking on my part,” he admitted as he tore open the wrapper and slid the condom into place.
    Once again covering her body, he groaned when she wrapped her legs around his hips and pulled him into her.  “Shit, Lacey,” he rasped, “I’m not going to last long.”
    “Good,” Lacey whispered.  “This is for you, Clint.”  As he stared into her eyes, Clint slowly started to move, trying to hold back.  He didn’t want to do anything to remind her of the asshole she had been with before.  He wanted to make this night special; one she would never forget. 
    “You’re so fucking tight, Lace,” he groaned as he finally eased all of the way inside of her.  Clint rested his head in the curve of her neck as he fought for control.  This was going to be over before it even started if he wasn’t careful.
    “Please,” Lacey begged as she arched her hips into his. “Move, Clint.  I need more.”
    Clint couldn’t hold back any longer.  Bracing himself on his elbows, he began to move inside of her.  He tried to keep it slow, but there was just no way.  Clutching strands of hair in his hands, he picked up the pace and pushed harder and faster.  Knowing he was close, he let go of her hair with one hand and reached between them.  Rubbing her clit with his thumb, he watched her eyes grow big and he yelled his own release as she screamed his name on hers.
    After several moments, Clint smiled as he stood and went to the bathroom to get something to clean the both of them up with.  When he was done, he lowered himself to the bed beside her and pulled the comforter over them.  Clint gathered Lacey in his arms and held her close. It had been days since he’d been able to sleep more than a couple of hours at a time, and all of the sudden he could feel it catching up with him.  Sighing in contentment, he nuzzled her cheek as he whispered softly, “Love you, Lace,” before drifting off to sleep.

Chapter 10

     
    Lacey watched Clint sleep, his declaration ringing in her ears.  Even after everything she had done to this man, he still loved her.  She had done nothing to deserve his love, but she wanted it.  Kissing him on the chin, she smiled when he started to snore softly.  “I love you too, Clint,” she whispered as she ran a hand over his short hair.
    Lacey sighed deeply when she heard her phone vibrating loudly from the pocket of her jeans that were lying somewhere on the floor.  All she wanted to do was snuggle in Clint’s arms all day and forget about the outside world and all of her problems.  Unfortunately, that was not going to be an option.  When her phone buzzed again, Lacey reluctantly slid out from under the covers and off the bed to find it.  Fishing it out of her pocket, she saw she had missed a call from Katy.  Before she could call her back, a text appeared telling her to meet Katy at the police station as soon as possible.  Dread filling her chest, Lacey quickly got
