Gabby’s words echoed in his ears. “You’re…what?” Maddox shook his head. “Never mind. Stupid question. I heard you.” He just couldn’t believe it. He’d noticed her innocence in some things, but didn’t most women have sex in college?
“Surprise! I was waiting for the right man.” Her cheeks flushed pink in embarrassment, and she rolled to her side in an attempt to scramble off the bed.
He stopped her, flipping her onto her back again. “Hold up. You didn’t give me a chance to respond.”
“Maybe I don’t want to hear you tell me, you’re sorry but it’s too much responsibility.”
He blew out a rough breath. A smarter man would let her go. A man who wasn’t feeling so protective of her would do the same. But he couldn’t. Despite how fast it had happened, she’d gotten under his skin. If anyone was going to be her first, it would be him. His age, experience, and their socio-economic differences be damned.
“You aren’t too much responsibility. You’re exactly the woman I want.”
She blinked, her pretty green eyes and her expression holding a mix of surprise and pleasure. “That’s quite a change from the man who said, this kiss was a mistake.”
“Because it wasn’t.” And he couldn’t contain his grin because the other thing he enjoyed was her mix of sweetness and sass.
“Good to know—” she started to say.
He cut her off with a kiss. He slid his tongue between her lips and positioned himself on top of her once more, taking his time to devour her and learn every sweet inch of her mouth. With a moan, she slid her fingers through his hair and held him in place, the kiss going on longer than he’d ever spent just making out. And not just because he wanted to make tonight good for her, which he did, but this moment meant something to him too.
Taking his time, he moved away from her mouth and pressed slow kisses down her neck, along her collarbone, her body trembling with desire.
“I didn’t know,” she murmured, her fingers still threading through his hair.
“What?”
She kissed his jaw and his cock grew harder. “That my body had so many erogenous zones.”
“It does. And I bet I can find more.” Sliding his hands up her sides, he caressed her soft skin, then grabbed the hem of the flimsy camisole, lifted it over her head and tossed the garment onto the floor.
He leaned back and took in her body, the curves of her breasts fuller than he’d realized, her nipples a dusky pink and hard, just begging for him to suck. That’s what he did. At the first lick, Gabby sighed and when he pulled one into his mouth, she moaned, her entire body writhing beneath him. With his other hand, he plumped and caressed her other breast, rolling her nipple between his thumb and forefinger.
She arched her hips and he knew if he slipped his hand beneath those loose shorts he’d find she was wet. Ready for him? Not yet, and he wanted to make this as easy for her as possible. He also needed to find a way to keep himself under control because everything about her turned him on. Reigning himself in wouldn’t be easy but for her, he’d do it.

Maddox seemed to know all the right spots to lick, suck, and yes, bite, she thought, as her body hummed in ways she’d never felt before. Had she made out with boys? Yes. And that’s what they’d been. Boys. Maddox was all man, and the attention he gave to her body proved he wasn’t a selfish one, either.
He rose to his feet and stripped off his pants. She took in his thick, heavy cock, obviously aroused and her eyes opened wide. She might be wet but she didn’t know how he’d fit.
“Relax, princess. I’ll make it good for you.”
At his gruff words, warmth spread like liquid through her veins. She believed him, and reached down, wriggling off her shorts, taking her skimpy bikini underwear off with her.
Though inexperienced with sex, she didn’t want to make him feel like he was with a young girl, not when he’d already made her age an issue. So, she bared herself to him, doing her best not to blush or attempt to cover herself. Instead, she lay down, as ready as she’d ever be. No matter how nervous she was, her sex throbbed and felt empty. For the first time she knew what it was like to want. She wanted to be filled by him, even if it hurt.
“Fucking beautiful,” he said, his hot gaze raking over her skin.
She swallowed hard, aware of her nipples puckering even more under his approving stare. “Do you know what I’ve been thinking about since the first time I saw you without a shirt?” she asked, looking up into his handsome face.
