"I was hurt."

"You're much better off when you don't listen to me," Nikki said.

He looked at me, and my breath stopped, his face so soft and tender.

My heart froze. I didn't expect such a tender look from him. I expected his heat and his anger, but compassion? Longing?

I stood up, the room too small all of sudden. "You've been complaining about me since you got here. But now I shouldn’t listen to you?"

"Yes." Nikki closed the distance between us, boxing me in near a waist-high bookshelf.

His energy shifted, and tingles moved inside me, fluttering inside my core until my body woke up all at once, a chasm of desire.

"You were worried about toying with my emotions."

"When you're doing a great job of toying with mine," I snapped. I looked over my shoulder at him, hoping he would come closer. Hoping he would stay there.

He came closer, almost close enough to touch. He hovered near my shoulder and raised his hand like he was going to touch me.

"Emotions get in the way," he said, his voice thick. "Easier to ignore them."

"Which is what I was doing when you came."

He set his hand on my shoulder.

I shuddered, and he watched me like I was a book to read, studying every moment.

"I told myself your desire for me was another game."

I glared at him. "I'm not playing games with you."

"I know." He ran his hand across my back to my other shoulder.

I let out a gasp, my knees weak. I couldn't get enough breath in, but when I did I was going to give him another piece of my mind.

He ran his hands down both of my arms, standing behind me, crowding me, but not pressing himself against me.

My core started to throb, and I sucked in another breath. He leaned down and pushed some hair off my neck. I shivered violently and hissed, "You're an ass."

"I am," he agreed, his breath hot on my shoulder. He kissed my shoulder slowly, so slowly.

He was a jerk. He'd been a jerk to me the entire time he was here. I should tell him to go fuck himself, literally.

But then the image of him stroking himself as he fantasied about me came, and with it, a bolt of lust. I tilted my head to the side, the position everything I'd ever fantasied about.

"A total asshole," I panted.

He licked my neck, and I whimpered. I leaned forward without conscious thought, I needed him against me. I pushed my ass against him, bringing myself flush with his hard on.

I gasped, and he groaned, bracing himself against the bookshelf. He thrust against me with another groan. "Zara."

He moved his hands up and cupped my breasts.

Molten heat flamed through me. I whined, and braced myself against the bookshelf.

"You are so gorgeous," Nikki panted. "Such a pain to deal with." He thrust against me, and I cried out.

I was going to come soon if I could get more friction. I was completely undone, grinding back into his crotch.
