Chapter 6 – She Learned I Loved Her Today

Carmen’s hand was tangled into Shane’s sweated hair, on the back of her head. Shane looked up at the ceiling, her gaze unfocused. She tried hard to concentrate on the slices of pale light painted by the shades, then opened her arms, clinging to the wrought iron of the bed head.

She was sitting up on the mattress, her back resting against the crumpled pillows, her slender legs stretched out under the covers.

Carmen sat on Shane’s lap, the white sheets partly wrapped around her waist, her upper body free from all constraints and swaying slowly, following a rhythm of its own.

Her long hair – Shane had finally realized how long it was, how thick and smooth it was – was down on her shoulders and wild. Dark, wavy strands fell freely around Carmen’s face, brushing her breasts and her collarbone, tickling Shane’s pale skin slightly.

Carmen rested her left hand on Shane’s right shoulder and her hips swayed again, slowly and fluidly. Shane’s lower abdomen tensed, and she half-closed her eyes and exhaled a long, long breath, tossing her head back, feeling the palm of Carmen’s hand spread on it, to hold it. A loving gesture. A caring act.

Shane let Carmen move on her that way for a long time. It was something she wasn’t used to. Being on bottom, risking to be dominated and tamed, keeping her hands still, relaxing every muscle. That wasn’t her. That wasn’t Shane McCutcheon.

Shane McCutcheon would fuck

fuck and leave and never come back. Find them, feel them, fuck them, forget them.

Shane McCutcheon didn’t like to be touched too much. Shane McCutcheon didn’t like – at all – the feeling of being possessed.

But not that night and not with a disarming Carmen Morales firmly placed on her lap, slowly grinding against her, gently making love to her.

There was a first time for everything and that was Shane’s.

Carmen’s upper body stretched as she ducked her head back – a motion that Shane was starting to love so much – and parted her lips, moaning softly. Her hands were still firmly placed on Shane’s head and shoulder. She moved again, back and forward and then in small circles, her eyes closed.
