Page 11 of Shifting Hearts

She watches every move I make. She grabs my hand and sucks my thumb into her mouth, licking her own juices off the digit, and I swear I almost come in my jeans. I want to tell her how fucking exquisite she is, how desperate I am to be inside her, that I love her, but the lights flicker and soon the elevator is moving.

I quickly help her fix her clothing before we arrive on the seventh floor.

Chapter Nine

Akasha LaVey

Secrets

My legs feel like jelly as I walk beside Korvin. I have just had the single best sexual experience in my fucking life and now I have to talk to my damn boss.

All I want to do is catch a cab home and let Korvin fulfill his dirty promise of fucking me until I can’t walk. I don’t even care that I have plans with Ari tomorrow, I’ll tell her I’m sick or something. Yes, it is a dick move but if I have to wake up from another erotic fucking dream featuring Korvin and what I can only imagine will be a spectacular cock, I’ll jump out my apartment window. It’s the same reason I didn’t wear panties tonight.

I was hoping I could somehow seduce him. Get him to touch me, kiss me, fuck me. It’s like a living entity, this need to be taken by him. I don’t want sweet and soft, I want him to treat me like a possession to take what he needs and leave me in a sobbing, messy heap of sexual satisfaction.

Each moment I spend with him only makes the desire within me grow more. I know what I am feeling isn’t normal by any stretch of the word, but I don’t want to give up on what he makes me feel. I crave him more every day.

Korvin knocks on the ornately carved wooden door and waits, my hand in his.

“Enter.” Both of us step inside. “Please take a seat,” Aldron says. He gestures to the two black leather chairs in front of his desk.

I wish Korvin would pull me down on his lap so I could feel his erection against my ass, but I know he won’t. Besides, that would be even more inappropriate than what we did in theelevator. I mean, this is our boss’s office.

“You wanted to see us?” Korvin asks.

Aldron nods. “This is not quite how I intended to do this, but things have happened, and I need to move up my timeline.”

“Okay,” I say with a raised brow, unsure of what they are talking about.

“This is all going to seem a bit crazy, but I need you to listen to me—” Aldron starts, facing me but Korvin cuts him off.

“Hell, no!” he roars, standing upright, shaking the windows in their panes. “You will not tell her anything.”

Like before with one of our bouncer twins, his features shimmer and shift before returning to normal. I shake my head. Being overly tired, hopped up on energy drinks, and sex deprived is making me hallucinate.

“Sit. Down,” Aldron orders Korvin. The strange thing is he does what he is told. “Akasha, do me a favor and sit on his lap.”

“What?”

“It will keep him in his seat,” he replies with a shrug.

I don’t argue, instead doing what I wanted to do from the beginning and taking a seat on Korvin’s lap. My ass wriggles against his erection and he wraps one of his muscular arms around my middle to keep me from squirming.

“Please Aldron, don’t do this.” Korvin is pleading with Aldron, and I don’t understand why.

“It needs to be done. The situation has … changed.”

“Can someone please tell me what the hell is going on?”

Korvin sighs. “You need to listen to Aldron and keep an open mind. Afterward, we can talk.”

The tone of his voice and the way he is holding me right now speaks volumes. He thinks whatever Aldron must tell me will either piss me off or send me running. He doesn’t believe there will be an opportunity for us to talk. He thinks I won’t wantto.

I fully intend to prove him wrong. Korvin doesn’t know this about me, but I am stubborn as fuck. And I want him, so I won’t be backing off anytime soon. Well, maybe if Aldron tells me he is a mass murdering cannibal, but even then, I’m not sure I would walk away.

“You didn’t get this job by chance. You were vetted and found to be the strongest candidate for what we needed.”

“Anyone can bartend,” I say with a roll of my eyes.
