Chapter 84 - Snacking
Samantha yawned. She turned on the side and peeked at Rider's expression. They haven't yet started, but she was already tired. Even before she had time to get out of her sexy lingerie!
She had spent the whole day getting ready for their meeting, and that must have been the reason for her exhaustion.
Also, they had stayed hugged for a long while. His arms and hot body were there for comfort, and that caused her muscles to relax. She was expecting him to overturn her and go back at it, but he didn't. He just hugged her tightly and caressed her back, as tender as she would have never imagined he could be.
His hands could be rude, savage, and overbearing during sex, but they could turn so gentle soon after. It was a mystery how the two things could exist in the same person, but Samantha didn't have the brains to wonder.
«Was it good?» she asked, caressing his chest with her open palm. She felt his heartbeat, steady and loud under her fingertips.
«Are you feeling uncertain, Mine?» he murmured, sliding his hand down her back and grabbing her butt. «Shall I answer such a question?»
«I gave you my word,» she explained, grabbing his wrist and placing his hand where it was before, on her waist. «I just want to be sure I fulfilled my promise. Are you regretting letting go of control?»
She bit her lower lip soon after talking and averted her eyes on a spot behind him. She knew he didn't let go of the control totally. It would have been way a longer battle to have him completely surrender. But for a starter, she was content with her achievements.
After all, she could tell her mate had a pretty difficult personality. He didn't care about pleasure as much as about his ego. He preferred taking the lead and sweating over it rather than just enjoying her attentions.
Males could be pretty difficult to understand, sometimes.
«I'm not regretting,» he chuckled, pecking her hair.
She smiled, but she didn't dare show her expression to him. It might have triggered his instincts and broken that moment of peace. It was so nice to just lie one next to the other. She wasn't ready to return to their activities, no matter how pleasing those could be.
«Now...» he started, stopping the caresses and rolling a lock of her hair around his finger.
His voice felt a little shy. Or, most probably, it just was an impression. But the pause between the first word and the rest of the sentence was suspicious.
Samantha gulped, putting all her attention in his words. Her body tensed up, curious about the uncertainty of his tone.
Was he going to ask her to do something kinky? Not that she minded, but if he was taking the time to talk, it must have been something very extreme.
Wolves' bodies could withstand much more than humans'. So, what could possibly make the overbearing and a little self-centred Rider take a deep breath in the middle of a sentence?
«I'm a little hungry,» he continued. With that same tone! He didn't change his mind and told her something else. He was nervous about talking about hunger... «What do you think if we order something from the restaurant? They should close the kitchens soon, so it's better we decide fast. They'll deliver it here, so you don't need to get dressed just for a meal.»
Samantha gulped, taken back. She was less surprised when he decided to take her in front of that damn window... Was eating together such a huge feat?
«Sure,» she said. «I'll need a lot of energy later, right?»
It was so confusing, but she didn't want to let go of such a chance. She pressed her cheek on his shoulder and rubbed her face on his skin, just like a kitten in search of cuddles.
«Your masculine ego will make me do all kinds of things to make up for a single moment of dominance,» she sighed. She closed her eyes to hide her wily thoughts. «It's better if I eat before you get started...»
«Hey,» he warned her, but his voice wasn't threatening one bit. Surprisingly, he didn't mind her provocations.
«I want to eat fried food. A lot of fried food!» she continued. «And possibly order something yummy for later as well. It'll be a long night, and I'm used to snacking when I don't sleep.»
«You didn't stop to search for snacks last time,» he pointed out.
When had that little devil turned into a spoiled, demanding thing? He thought eating together would have helped deepen their relationship without giving away too much. But she was already teasing, begging for him to retort.
He took a deep breath before talking again.
«I'll go order your snacks, then,» he said. «I don't want you to lose energy in the middle of the night. It wouldn't be nice to stop for a break when we have so little time.»
«The night is long.»
«Oh, the weekend is even longer than the night,» he whispered, tightening his clench and turning her to him. Their eyes met, and hers were wide in surprise. «You don't think you'll be able to walk home tomorrow, right? It'll be interesting to see you ride that bike of yours.»
«Pizza,» she exclaimed all of a sudden. «I want pizza. Do you think they have it?»
«I hope so,» Rider replied.
If not, it would have been tough to find someone to deliver it there at that time in the evening. It was getting late, so he had to hurry even just to have the food from the kitchen!
At the same time, he hated the idea of getting up to reach the phone. The slender body of the little devil was still relaxing in his arms, and her hair was tickling him every time she moved her head.
«It's not like I can't live without, though. If not, order anything fried.»
«Oh, but I want to look at you eating pizza now. Do you need a fork and knife, by any chance?»
«Jerk,» she murmured.. But her tone wasn't all that convincing.
