“You’re a total boyfriend girl. The bunnies will all think I’ve moved on. They’ll think I’m suddenly looking for commitment. The news will spread that Lukas Novikov is finally ready for the house and the kids and the dog. That cannot happen. Do you understand?”
“No one will know,” I say again. “One night only.Please, Lukas. I just want to feel something. Please, can you help me with that ... as a friend?”
He sighs, looking me up and down one more time. “Fine. On one condition.”
Hope blooms in my chest. Oh god, is this really happening? Are we doing this? “What?” I ask, trying not to sound too eager.
Those caramel eyes flash with hunger as he takes a step away from the wall. “Kiss me again.”
My heart stops. “What?”
“Show me what it feels like when you’re not pretending for the sake of some handsy douche. Kiss me because you actually want to, because you wanna kissme.” Lukas stands there, holding his vulnerability in his hands, asking me not to break it. Just like me, he wants to be wanted. He wants to feel seen for exactly who he is.
Oh, we are so doing this.
I cross to his side, my clutch dropping to the floor as I wrap both my hands around his neck and pull him down to me. Then I kiss him because I want to. His mouth slants over mine, and his hands are on me, first bracing possessively at my back, then sliding downto my hips.
He groans, his tongue dancing with mine. Then he spins us around, pressing me up against the wall. “Can I touch you?”
“Yes,” I pant. “Please god,yes—”
“Where?”
“Anywhere. Everywhere. Please, just don’t stop.”
With a feral sound, he wraps both hands around me, cupping my ass. I love the strength of his touch. He lifts me off the floor, pressing me against the wall with his hips. My little blue dress bunches at my waist as my legs wrap around him. I graze my nails over his shoulders and kiss his neck.
“Oh, fuck.” He braces me with one hand as the other dives into my hair.
“Do I pass the test?” I say in his ear. “Can you feel how much I want you? If not, there are other places you can check besides my mouth.”
“Such a goddamn fucking tease,” he growls, sucking on my neck. The sensation lights me up inside, turning my core from flickering flames into molten lava. “If you’re about to tell me you keep busting balls even when a guy is balls deep, we’re gonna have to find something to do with this smart mouth.”
I laugh, wiggling my hips until I find what I want. “Ohgod.” His hard dick presses against my pussy, and I’m flying. “Please. Please,please, don’t make me wait.”
“Fuck,” he says again, one hand roughly cupping my chin. “Say you want this.” I move my hips against him, and he presses me harder against the wall. “Sayit.”
“I want this.”
“Say it again.”
I tip my head back. “I want you, Lukas. Now, stop second-guessing and stick your pretty dick in me.”
His hand slips down between us and he cups me hard, practically pinning me to the wall by my pussy. “Listen to me, you spoiled fucking princess. I am going to fuck you in this tight little cunt until you scream.” He rubs his hand up and down, stimulating my clit until I’m moaning. “You’ve gone three years without sex, right?”
My heart races as I nod.
He kisses me again, hard and fast. “Good. From this momentforward, I can guarantee you won’t go three fucking minutes without thinking about how hard I made you come. This can be for one night only, and no one ever has to know…butyou’llknow. Won’t you, Princess?”
I nod again. “Yes.”
“Tomorrow, we’ll go back to trading chirps and annoying the shit out of each other, but you’ll bother me knowingexactlywhat my dick can do to you.” He shifts his hold on me, his fingers brushing my inner thigh. “You’ll know how it feels when I come inside you, and you’ll knowIknow how this sweet pussy feels squeezing my cock as you shatter.”
“Lukas, please,” I say on a whimper, my entire body coiled tight, ready to burst.
“Tell me one more time. You want this, Princess?”
My hands tighten on his shoulders, my nails pinching in. “Call me ‘Princess’ again, and I’ll knee you in the balls.”
