Page 37 of Merciless Obsession
Ezra lifted the sucker and rubbed it along my lips. I licked my lips, swiping the sucker. Ezra’s eyes flashed and his nostrils flared. He nudged the sucker until it forced its way between my lips. I parted my lips and he pushed the sucker deep into my mouth. I hollowed my cheeks, sucking the sucker and rolling my tongue around it. The flavor exploded in my mouth. My eyes stayed locked on Ezra’s. It was as if I was trapped in a trance, unable to break away from his alluring stare. I sucked this time, making a slurping sound.
“You have such beautiful lips,” he rasped.
Ezra stepped closer. Heat swirled in my belly. I never took my coat off, but goosebumps covered my arms.
“You really do have an oral fixation, huh? You love having that sexy little mouth filled, don’t you? Do you know how hard it’s been to stay away from you? It took all my will power not to come in here while you slept, tie you up with my ties, and get close ups of you for my collection.”
One of his hands lifted and brushed over the side of my neck. His words should have struck fear in me. I knew a reasonable person would kick Ezra out and demand he left her alone, but instead my insides tingled. My heart raced and ached under my breasts.
He pulled the sucker out of my mouth and pushed it back in slowly, brushing it across my lips with each stroke. His eyes stayed locked on where he moved the sucker. Each time hepushed it in, I sucked the flavor. My eyes fluttered and my breath quivered.
Slowly Ezra pulled part of the sucker out my mouth and rested it against my lips. It caught me off guard when he lowered his head and pulled the other side of the sucker out of my mouth. His lips brushed against mine. His tongue swiped over the hard coated candy. With the sucker still between us, the kiss became drugging. It tasted sweeter than I was used to. Blood rushed through my head. A hot ache grew in my throat.
“So fucking sweet.” His voice was gruff, making my blood vibrate. He stuck his tongue out, licking my lips along with the sucker. He flashed me a crooked grin. “I knew you missed me just as much as I missed you.”
“I—” Before I could speak, the sucker was out of my mouth and this time Ezra was kissing me hungrily, as if fulfilling his dying wish.
Ezra pulled back only inches and gazed into my eyes. “I want to tie you up. I want to tie you up and have you at my mercy.”
My heart slammed into my ribcage. “Yeah?”
“Yeah. Are you flexible, Bumblebee?”
My mouth parted but no words came out. “No worries if you’re not, I can get creative.”
I wanted to ask questions. This wasn’t normal, but before I could finally get my words out Ezra suddenly pulled away. I panted and grabbed my chest, attempting to get my breathing under control. My tongue swiped over my lips, still tasting the sucker and Ezra’s lips on them.
“What the fuck?” Ezra growled. He dug into his suit pocket and pulled his phone out. He glanced at me and cursed under his breath.
“Yeah?” he answered. As he lifted the sucker, my mouth opened automatically and he pushed it back inside. “I’m kind of busy at the moment.”
Ezra released the sucker and turned his back to me. Curiosity filled me. I reached for the sucker and studied his body. It sounded like a male voice on the other end. He spoke lowly to whoever then hung up.
When he turned back to me, he smirked and scanned me. “Unfortunately Bumblebee, I have to go.”
Ezra turned and went to the side of the couch where his loafers were and sat on the couch to put them on his feet. Standing back up, he reached for the peacoat draped over the back of my couch and slid it on.
He faced me. “We’ll have to continue this another time.”
I shook my head. “I don’t think so. I had a lapse of judgement.”
He chuckled and walked back over to me. “You don’t have to lie. Your body told me all I needed to know.” His hand brushed over my cheek. This time I pulled away from him.
“I’ll see you later.”
“I’m changing my locks and alarm code.”
He didn’t look bothered. “If you believe that’s enough to keep me out and away from you, then let the games begin.” He winked and stepped around me, heading for the door.
I slowly inhaled a deep breath and pushed it out. Pulling the sucker out of my mouth, I turned and faced the door. The call Ezra just got could have been work, but something told me I was wrong. Instead of pondering, I stuck the sucker back into my mouth, hurried and grabbed my purse off the coffee table, and rushed out the door.
Ezra was pulling off just as I closed and locked my door. I rushed to my car, unlocked it, and climbed inside. If Ezra thought, he was the only one who could stalk, then he was mistaken. This wasn’t my first time tailing someone.
My hands became sweaty and I gripped the steering wheel tightly. My heart thundered. My stomach flipped each timewe made a turn or stopped. We got further from my house, eventually heading down a road that led toward the country. We made a couple more turns on back streets. About twenty minutes outside the city we got to a long dirt road.
First, a large farmhouse came into view. The area was secluded and surrounded by woods, encased by a wooden fence. I didn’t realize it at first, but the last house we passed was miles away. Ezra parked in the large patch of gravel behind the house where other cars were. Behind the cars was a medium size barn.
I stopped just a couple feet before getting to the gravel on the side of the house. My stomach flipped. I wish I had another sucker because I needed something to calm my nerves. I rubbed my hands back and forth over the steering wheel. Quickly, I went into my glove compartment and grabbed my pill bottle, opening it, grabbing a pill, and tossing it in my mouth. I pushed a heavy breath out then licked my lips and waited.
