Page 33 of Forbidden Cravings

Almost. But I took control, riding him, dictating our rhythm and losing myself to the touch of his hands on my waist, on my breasts, on my ass, and the possessive glimmer in his eyes as he watched me until I could take no more. My climax tore through me, and I felt him lose control, his release hitting him just as mine drowned me. He pulled me down, his lips crashing into mine, and we rode out the pleasure that was soaring through us.

The fierce beats of his heart were a calming sound that soothed the sudden fear that overcame me and caused me to cling to him. Our one night had turned into more, seeping into the next morning, and I didn’t know how I could return home now. Didn’t think it would be possible for our one night to be just that. Because what I saw reflected in his eyes when I rose from his chest was the same emotion that was currently paralyzing me. Love.

Mason wason his phone when I finished dressing. We’d showered together, and he’d taken me against the shower wall as the water pounded over us. It was almost like if we stopped touching each other, we’d have to admit that it was time for me to leave. We were already several hours late.

“She’s fine, Ty. She wasn’t ready to leave yet.” I cringed, hating that he’d deceived my brother. He hadn’t lied to him, but he’d left out the reason I hadn’t been ready.

He glanced up at me, the sexy grin nowhere to be seen. Instead, his eyes were creased, his jaw tight. Worry sat on his expression along with guilt, and I dropped my eyes.

“She’s right here,” he said and handed the phone to me.

I took a deep breath before bringing it to my ear. “Hey, Ty.”

“You changed plans on me, Case. Is everything okay?”

“Mason told you everything was fine.”

Mason brushed my hair from my neck, kissing it while his other hand cupped my breast. The sensual way he was caressing it gave me goosebumps and made it hard to think.

“That asshole wouldn’t tell me if it wasn’t because he knows I’d kill him.”

“You sure about that?” I asked as Mason’s hand slid down my leg, lifting the hem of my dress. Shit, he was going to pay me back for going down on him while he was on the phone. My hand shook. “I’d place my wager on him, Ty.”

“Fuck you would. Your loyalty is with me, Casey. You remember that.” There was a playfulness to his voice, but his words cut deep until Mason’s fingers pushed my thong aside and rubbed my clit. I squeezed the phone tighter. He had pushed the sleeve of my dress down, his hand kneading the flesh of my breast and when his finger penetrated me, I bit my lip so hard it bled.

“Case?”

I wanted to curse, but Ty would freak out. “I’m fine, I…” Mason pulled at my nipple, his finger sliding from me and rubbing my clit again. “I just stubbed my toe,” I said through gritted teeth.

Mason chucked in my ear, then nibbled on it as his finger sank back into me.

“You’re a disaster. That’s why I want you to be careful. Mason’s sending extra men with you, and I’ll meet you at the airport. Donelli gave me three of his men to escort us back.”

“Why so many?”

Mason added a finger, and I almost choked on the cry that I stopped. His touch had my body on fire, and I didn’t think hewas faring any better. His length was so hard against my back that it was beckoning me to use it.

“Donelli’s worried about the Bad Omens. There were sightings in the northern part of the province.” I would have been concerned if Mason wasn’t edging my orgasm on. “Maybe you shouldn’t come back, Case.”

“What?” I tried to move, but Mason held me tighter, his fingers fucking me so hard now that it was difficult to concentrate on anything but the pleasure he was bringing me.

“I’d rather have you under our watch.”

“Donelli’s as protective of me as he is of his daughter. He won’t let anything…” Mason pulled his fingers out and their absence left a dull ache between my legs, but he squeezed my breast, returning his attention to my clit and that feeling disappeared quickly. “He won’t let anything happen.”

“Are you sure you’re okay?” he asked. “You sound off.”

“My toe is throbbing.” I couldn’t tell him it was really my entire body that was throbbing and about to fall apart for Mason. “I’m going to put some ice on it. I’ll see you in a few hours.”

“Fine. Love you, sis.”

“Love you, too, Ty.”

I managed to hang the phone up just as Mason thrust his fingers back into me, leaving my legs shaking. Resting my head against his chest, I let the phone slip from my hand.

“Come for me, Case. One last time.”

As if my body was his to command, my climax shredded through me, leaving me a quivering mess as he held me through it. It lit every part of my body on fire, from head to toe, my knees giving out so that I would have toppled if he weren’t holding me.
