Penelope moaned as Luke's fingers ghosted along the curve of her back, all the way down to the cleft of her ass. His touch was featherlight, almost as if he wasn't really there next to her.
He brought the digits over her hip, trailing down the front of her stomach before they dipped low, into the dark blonde curls that waited for him.
"Oh…" It came out a lot more breathless than she intended it to.
Luke's fingers stroked over her clit, rolling the sensitive nub between his fingers.
"Ah!" Her back arched, and she gripped at his bare shoulders, his erect cock pushing into her thigh.
Dipping his fingers into her, Luke let out his own low growl. "You're always so wet."
Penelope's fingernails dug into Luke's shoulders, her hips bucking upwards, wanting more. "For you. Always for you."
"Ah, fuck," he cursed, rolling, so his weight was resting between her legs. His lips sought hers out like a heat-seeking missile. He pushed against her hard, rocking his body in time with his fingers deep inside her, the head of his cock already leaking over her thigh.
"Inside me," Penelope began. "Please, now!" She felt almost incoherent with pleasure. There was only one thing she wanted, and Luke was the only one who could provide it.
Luke pulled his fingers from her at the same time he pulled his lips from hers too. He sucked his fingers into his mouth without any hesitation whilst reaching over to the nightstand and grabbing a condom.
They'd had a discussion about protection after what had previously occurred between them. Despite Penelope being on the pill and them both being clean, she still didn't want to take any risks, so condoms would be part of their relationship for the foreseeable future.
Penelope let her fingers wander down his back to her ass, where she grabbed it, feeling the tight muscles beneath her hands. It thrilled her.
Luke reared back once he had situated the condom on his cock. His eyes were blown with lust.
Grasping her thick thighs in his large hands, Luke pulled her further down the bed, so her thighs were atop of his. Penelope stayed on her back as Luke knelt above her.
He teased her with the head of his luscious cock, rubbing against her swollen folds.
"Please," she begged. "Please."
Luke grinned at her and then slid in, her juices making it easy.
Letting out simultaneous moans, they both took a second, basking in this feeling—the feeling of… completeness.
Luke set the pace, pulling his hips out and then pushing back in, filling her to the hilt once again.
Penelope reached above her and grabbed the sheets, twisting the soft cotton between her fingers as Luke pumped in and out of her.
Her breasts heaved with every thrust, the physical movement of them making her clit throb with want.
"You look so good like that," Luke grunted out, his eyes fixated on her as if she were the only thing in the room.
Wanting to see him, Penelope opened her eyes and watched him fuck her. His jaw was tense, his eyes hooded. His chest heaved with breaths as the muscles in his stomach tensed, a light film of sweat starting to coat his skin. The backs of her thighs resting on his were hot, sweat forming on her own skin.
Penelope lifted her legs slightly and locked them around his waist, digging her feet into his ass. She could feel his ass tensing underneath them, and it became too much.
Closing her eyes, Penelope lost herself in Luke. In the way that he smelt, her room becoming a heady mix of the two of them. In the way that his hands grasped at her thighs, brutal and unforgiving as they pushed her closer and closer to the precipice.
When she began to clench around him, Luke threw his head back. "Yes, just like that."
Bringing her hands up to her breasts, Penelope played with her nipples, flicking the tight peaks until her clit felt like it was going to burst.
"Fuck yeah." Luke dove down, his head knocking one of her hands out of the way before he sucked a nipple into his mouth, biting down on the sensitive flesh.
"Oh my God! Luke!" Penelope cried as her orgasm hit her. Her body felt like it was on fire and every single muscle tensed.
She locked in him a vice-like grip.
"So close… so close," Luke panted against her breast, his forehead resting against her skin and his eyes closed.
Penelope placed her lips at his ear. "Come inside me."
Luke was strung so tight that her words sent him careening over the edge, his hips thrusting harshly against her, his ass tensing tightly under her feet before it relaxed, and Luke fell on top of her.
She ran her hands along his back, loving his heat breath against the side of her face. She loved that she was the reason he was so out of breath, that she was the reason sweat was coating his skin.
Luke twisted his head to the side and ran his nose along her cheek before he pressed a kiss on the corner of her mouth.
"That was fun," he mumbled.
His words made her giggle.
It had been a difficult few days, and Penelope was so glad that she—and Luke—had the night off. The plan was to take a long weekend together, doing nothing but eating, sleeping, and spending time together.
The drawer that she had previously cleared out of her things now held some of Luke's clothes. His shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel resided in her bathroom. Food for Roxy and Lou took up space in her cupboard. And in her living room, there was now a wicker basket that held some of their toys.
He hadn't moved in. No. It was way too soon for that. But he did have some things over here to make it easier on them both. And the next time Penelope went over to Luke's, she would bring a bag with some of her things to go in a drawer that he cleared out for her.
The fact that she had a drawer at his place made her a bit tingly, but she tampered it down.
Luke pushed himself up from Penelope and rolled to the side. He pulled off the condom in a practised move, placed it in a tissue, and threw it in the rubbish bin.
Reaching for her hand, he pulled it to his mouth and kissed her knuckles.
"You should probably let Roxy, Lou, and Simon back in, now."
Luke chuckled at her words and nodded in agreement.
He stood from the bed, still in all his naked glory, and Penelope watched with rapt attention as he went to the door and opened it.
Seconds later, Roxy and Lou ran in as if Luke and Penelope had been gone for hours. Simon didn't make an appearance. Cats seemed to be much less needy than dogs—or less inclined to enjoy human company unless it was on their terms.
Penelope giggled and got under the covers just before Lou jumped on the bed and then immediately rolled onto her back, presenting her stomach for tickles.
Reaching out, Penelope stroked the soft fur, marvelling at how well she was adjusting to everything. Animals truly were remarkable. Luke seemed to be doing better now as well.
A vibrating noise had Penelope turning her head and picking up her phone from the bedside table.
When she let out a heavy sigh, Luke looked at her.
"Let me guess: we got a case?"
Penelope nodded, pushing herself up into a sitting position. "We got a case."
Forty minutes later and they Luke and Penelope had got the conference room set up and established the basic facts of the upcoming cases.
Her friends and work colleagues filtered in the room; thankfully none of them questioned why Luke was there with her.
Penelope turned to them. "Good evening. I am the artist currently known as she who ruins your evening by sharing revolting ViCap hits, case in point." She shared the images on the screen, trying not to dwell on them too much. This was all part of her job, and in the end, catching the bad guy was why she did this.
I know I've been gone a while, and I do apologise. But I'm back and hoping to publish a new chapter every Wednesday. See you next week!
EDIT: This was meant to be posted yesterday, but if you're on my Facebook, you'll know that a family member was rushed to hospital with heart problems on Tuesday. They are now home and recovering, but I'm so grateful for all the support I received.
As always, I'm on Facebook under 'Princess Treacle'—come and say hi. I'll try and get better at posting Criminal Minds content over there.
