Page 121 of Cruel Promise

Nikolai wraps his arms around my waist and presses me against the desk. I cling to his strong shoulders. Already, his kiss lights me on fire.

Unlike before, this kiss is filled with desperation and longing. We both want to open up, but we keep stopping before it can fully happen.

I gasp when he picks me up and sits me on the desk. His large hands cover my waist, giving it a squeeze. Without even thinking about it, I open my legs wider, letting him settle between the space.

His right hand cups my breast, making me moan softly. Our kiss is passionate and messy, but it’s perfect to me.

He subtly shifts his hips against mine, and I can feel the growing erection in his pants. I know my own body is warming up and getting ready for him.

“Nik,” I gasp when he brings his lips to my neck and bites gently. “What are you doing to me?”

“You make me fucking wild, too,” he admits in my ear. My entire body trembles.

And then he’s kneeling before me. The sight of such a powerful man on his knees makes me feel weak in my own knees.

He pushes my legs open. His hands reach under my dress and skim my bare thighs.

“Lean back,” he instructs, giving me his signature intense stare. I do as he says, and Nikolai rips my panties down my legs, making me gasp. My scent is strong in the air. He places his face on my inner thigh and inhales deeply. “God, I love the way you smell.”

I blush.

He flips my dress up around my waist and draws my hips to the edge of the desk. “I’ve wanted to do this ever since I first sawyou.” I’m not prepared for him to place his face between my legs and touch me with his tongue.

My hips practically fly off the desk. “Oh!”

He grabs my thighs to steady me and then begins to really use his tongue. It moves from my clit down to my folds and back up again. The feeling is soft and firm and oh soaddicting. My toes curl from the pleasure of it.

He takes his time running his tongue over my clit. Rolling it around. Suckling on it. My hips buck up, and I blush harder when he holds me in place.

The growl that escapes his mouth turns me on even more.

“Nik,” I gasp, my head dropping back. Feeling brave, I curl my hands into the back of his hair, pulling him in closer. God, it feels amazing. If I could just get lost in this moment with him forever, then everything would be all right between us.

He licks me harder and harder and harder. I can feel my body tightening. Feel how close I’m getting.

My hands grip the edge of the desk as I arch my back.

He pushes his face more firmly between my thighs. His tongue slides down to my opening, and he pushes inside. I let out a long, loud moan, not even caring who hears.

He cups the bottom of my thighs with his strong hands, and for some reason, it sends me over the edge.

I gasp and tremble and shiver as I come. Nikolai doesn’t stop pleasuring me with his tongue the entire time.

And then, it’s over.

When he stands back up, he gives me a look that says he could eat me all over again. I blush even harder at the thought.

He unzips his pants and brings out his long erection. My inner walls clench at the memory of him inside me. “I need you.”

Without a word, I open my legs wider, and he settles between them. Our gazes lock, and then he slides into me in one smooth motion. This time, there’s not an ounce of pain at all.

The moment he’s entirely inside me, I feel complete. I feel safe.

Our foreheads press together.

And then Nikolai begins to thrust his hips forward, slowly bringing his length in and out of me. I arch my hips, matching his pace. Our breath mingles together. Our eyes lock in a heated gaze. In this one area of our lives, we’re on the same page, moving in perfect harmony.

He grinds his hips harder against mine, and I gasp and clutch his biceps. The strength underneath my hands is powerful. It makes me more aroused.
