CHAPTER FOUR
Sami had known Lucas wouldn't be able to wait until morning.
She was sure they had just drifted off to sleep and he was already attacking her mouth and neck like she was his personal lollipop. Well, she was his personal lollipop truth be told but she wasn't going to let him know that.
Sami moaned into his mouth first in protest at being rudely awakened. As he continued kissing and touching her, her sounds of protest turned to the wanton sounds of desire and her trip back to consciousness didn't seem as rude as before. Even though he would hate her calling him predictable, she knew Lucas so well by now that she patiently waited for him to place her onto her back. He was certainly taking his time but she did notice that even for a middle-of-the-night tryst, Lucas was being awfully tame and kind of clumsy. She was definately a bit groggy from being woken up but maybe he was feeling a little sleepy himself when his hormones decided to take over. 'I wonder what his angle is?' she thought. Whatever it was, she was sure that she would get the better of him and come out on top—maybe even literally.
Philip was on cloud nine right now. The woman of his dreams was in his arms and not only was she kissing him with abandon but only moments before she had begged him to make love to her. Of course, his mind was a complete blur so he didn't even remember falling to the couch and he couldn't actually recall pulling Belle into his arms and covering their bodies with a blanket. It looked and felt as if they were just cuddling but with their mouths fused together as they were, they could be doing nothing else but ravishing each other.
In the heat of the moment he must have ripped her robe off of her. Damn, he didn't mean to get out of control. Right now what she needed was someone gentle. He knew it would be her first time and he wanted to be patient and make it the best experience he could for her. He wasn't the most experienced guy either but he would do his best to make this night special for Belle.
While he had been comforting Belle over the last few months, which involved a lot of holding and cuddling, he never really took the opportunity to feel her body against his. He was too afraid that he would get out of hand and he didn't want to scare her off. But having Belle in his arms right now, he couldn't help but become completely overwhelmed by how luscious her body was. He wouldn't have guessed it by just looking at her or even hugging her but she felt like one of those beautiful, curvy women that were all too often taken for granted in this society. Not that bag of sticks and bones you see on television and in magazines but the kind of woman that really knows how to fill out a dress... or jeans...or a T-shirt...or whatever. Although he thought that Belle was gorgeous, he hadn't really thought of her as this type of woman since she was so small. It was surprising actually since her sister Sami was exactly that type of woman. Not that he had checked her out...much. Ok, truth be told, he thought Sami was hot even if she was trouble personified. Besides, between his mother's extreme hatred of her and the fact that she was newly engaged to his brother Lucas, he had written her off as pretty much off limits. 'But if only I were a few years older,' he thought.
Wait a minute! He was making out with the woman of his dreams and he was currently thinking about how hot her sister was! That's just not right. 'I'll fix that,' Philip said to himself and continued to gently kiss and caress the love of his life as she moaned sexily against him. His hands moved up Belle's hot body and he could feel the heat they were generating between each other. He knew that Belle was inexperienced but she seemed to be really getting into things. She didn't appear to be shy at all about touching him. She was presently running her fingers through his hair while simultaneously skimming his chest with her short nails. He didn't know if she was aware of how much that turned him on—he only hoped that she would keep trusting him enough to enjoy herself.
He went to put his hands in her hair and thought briefly that he didn't remember it being as long as it felt even pulled back. He quickly dismissed the thought as something a guy doesn't normally assess when they're about to make love to a beautiful woman. He moved his hands up to Belle's face and even though he was throbbing with desire for her, he knew that he had to look into her eyes and make sure this was really what she wanted.
Although it seemed painful to pull away from her, Philip let go of Belle's lips and brought his gaze up to meet hers. What he first registered was the intense look of heat and lust gazing back at him as he became all too aware of his body and what this woman was doing to him. Then as if he had been doused with a bucket of cold water, Philip realized that he was staring into the very aroused eyes of Sami Brady—Belle's sister and Lucas' new fiancée. In other words, his soon to be sister-in-law. He looked down at himself and through his lust filled mind suddenly realized that something was terribly, terribly wrong. He thought that there was no way that what he thought was happening could, in fact, be taking place. As he felt Sami undulating her perfect body against him, he briefly reflected on his previous salacious thoughts of her and knew that he had to get out of this impossibly crazy situation fast.
Sami looked at who she thought was Lucas, but who was actually someone else entirely, rather quizzically when he slowly pulled away from her. 'Leave it to Lucas to be such a tease after waking ME up to have a midnight roll in the hay,' she thought. She would just have to teach him a lesson about that. Lucas always said that she was a wildcat in bed. Well, she would show him just how wild she could be.
