Page 46 of Dare To Take

My skin goes cold at the sound of Elliot’s voice somewhere below.

Eli’s quick to move his hand, his focus settling on something down the hallway. “She went to put her phone on charge in her bedroom.”

Footsteps move closer. “We should get you both to decorate the tree every year.”

I tiptoe faster up the staircase, heart beating a loud rhythm in my ears.

Oh my god. What if he looks this way?

Eli’s lips are curved in a smile, and I’m pretty sure he’s trying not to laugh. My breath hitches when I see the top of his dad’s head appear below me.

He’s going to see me.

I hurry the rest of the way up the stairs, unable to look away from Eli’s face as I do. His gaze locks on mine, and the second it does, his dad starts to turn. I put on a burst of speed, and, somehow, make it to the top of the landing before he spots me.

I go from cold to hot to cold again, as I sprint down the hallway and into my room. I slam the door and throw myself down onto my bed.

“Oh my god. Oh my god.” I cover my burning cheeks with my hands. My heart is racing. My skin is flushed … My nipples are so hard, they ache, and my panties are soaking wet.

He’d almost seen me. What would he have thought?

He’s already seen the video of me naked, down on my knees, touching myself while I’d suck a guy’s cock.

Dizzy with adrenaline, I try to catch my racing thoughts. As my heartbeat slows, the rush is slowly polluted with shame. My head spins out of control. I jump when a hand touches my foot. I roll over, to find Eli watching me from the end of the bed.

He grins, grabs my ankles, and pulls me toward him to the edge of the mattress. “Do you know how fucking hot you looked walking up those stairs like that?”

My legs go around his waist, the feel of his strong body between my thighs overwhelming and intoxicating.

“Eli, he saw me!”

His knees come down on the bed, and he looms over me. “He didn’t see you.”

“He was going to see me.” I wind my arms around his neck and tangle my fingers in his hair.

Eli bends his head to lick one nipple. “Ari, he didn’t see you.”

“I don’t want to give him another heart attack.”

He crawls up my body, until we’re face to face, and then his mouth covers mine, silencing my words. There’s nothing soft about the branding contact. He parts my lips with his tongue, plunges inside, and his hand moves to encircle my throat.

Eli

“Ari, look at me.” I tilt her head up with my thumb and wait for her gaze to meet mine. “Dad’s heart attack wasn’t your fault. That’s all on me.” I capture her lips again, and this time she kisses me back, her legs tightening around my waist.

I press against her, letting her feel how hard my dick is and then pull my mouth from hers. “We’ve been summoned down to dinner, so as much as I’d love to feast on you right now, you’re going to have to be dessert later instead.” I roll off her, and hand her the t-shirt she must have tossed to the floor. “Get dressed, Hellcat.”

She sits up and my eyes dip to look at her breasts. “Wait.”

Her head comes up. “What?”

“Stand up.” I look around the room, then smile when I see the pen on the nightstand. “Come here.” I take the pen and hook my hand into the front of her jeans so I can pull her closer.

In black pen, I write ‘suck’ over each breast, then pop the button on her jeans and pull them down her thighs. Holding her gaze with mine, I smile and drag her panties down. Pressing the pen against the skin just above her pussy, I write ‘fuck’, then bend my head to give one long lick between her legs.

“Eli!” She gasps, clutching at my shoulder.
