“That’s probably why he keeps spinning her so much,” Zayn said, and we laughed. He paused and then looked at me, really fucking looked at me, and said, “I love that sound.” His hand came up and brushed my lips. I shut my eyes at his touch.
“Do you feel it too?” I took a sip from my drink, feeling drunk.
“Feel what, Peach?”
“When you touch me… my body hums. Vibrates. I don’t know how to explain it.” I bit my lower lip, feeling silly for asking, but blamed it on the alcohol.
Zayn’s eyes darkened. The playful glint vanished, replaced with something rougher—possessive. His voice dropped, barely more than a growl. “You have no fuckingclue what my body does when you are near…” I put my hand on his thigh as I watched his mouth.
I wanted to kiss him so bad.
He looked down at my hand on his thigh and then back up to me with one raised brow, taking a sip of whisky. I brought my hand up higher and higher and lightly grabbed his hard-as-rock cock. He choked on his whisky, and I smiled.
“Oh, Peach. You’re going to wish you didn’t do that. Two can play that game.” His grin was wicked—sinful.
Eryn and Gavrin came over to us, and I quickly moved my hand from Zayn’s crotch and placed them both on the table. “You two are looking comfy in here,” Eryn teased.
Gavrin reached for the whisky bottle and took it. “I need a drink. Feeling parched from all this dancing,” he teased Eryn and then took a swig.
Zayn’s hand went to my thigh. I quickly cross my legs, trapping his hand between them, preventing him from going any further.
“Uncross your legs. Don’t make a sound.”He said in my head.
My heart caught in my throat. I opened my mouth, but his words caught me off guard again. I wasn’t even sure if Eryn and Gavrin were talking to me. I couldn’t function with his hand on me. “And don’t give your face away.”
I uncrossed my legs.
“Good girl. I think you like being told what to do.”
I almost moaned.
“You guys haven’t danced yet. You are far too beautiful, Elara, to be sitting here, hiding that gorgeous dress of yours,” Eryn smiled and took the whisky bottle from Gavrin.
“I—I, ugh…” Zayn’s hand went up higher, pushing my thighs wider apart, and then he went under the slit of my dress.
I brought my hand to my mouth while the other grabbed the edge of the table. Eryn gave me a puzzled look and then her eyes went wide and she smirked. She elbowed Gavrin and they left us to go dance some more.
I was mortified. They probably sensed my arousal.
I smacked Zayn’s arm. “What are you—” I moaned as he tore—no shredded—my panties with just one hand. “Holy Divine.” I didn’t even have time to think. To act. He rubbed his fingers around me.
“Gods, Elara. You are soaked.” He leaned in closer, pushing his lips to my neck and my head rolled, exposing more skin for him. He lightly bit my neck and then started rubbing my clit. I sat back in my chair, and I moaned.
“Shh.” A wicked grin spread across his lips. He leaned in, brushing his lips against my ear. “You’re about to have the time of your life. I can’t promise you the stars baby… but I’ll make you feel like you’re burning among them.”
I was gone—absolutely sent.
My breath caught. The heavy blue fabric shielded us from sight, the music still loud, the ballroom still crowded. But I couldn’t move. He worked my clit faster and then slidone finger in. I grabbed his arm that was on the table and dug my nails into his skin.
Gods.
My other hand curled tight around the edge of the table, knuckles white. “Do you know how utterly gorgeous you are right now? Your pouty red lips… your flushed cheeks… my fingers fucking this drenched pussy…” He sank a second finger in while his thumb skillfully stroked my bud.
His breath was hot against my skin. He pressed his mouth softly to my neck again, and the sensation was enough to steal the air from my lungs. I shouldn’t have wanted this—not here, not now—but something inside me thrilled at the danger. At the devotion. At being worshipped by him like I was something holy.
“Fuck it, I have to have a taste.” Before I could register his words, he slid beneath the table too fast. My magic responded, flickering beneath my skin.
He grabbed both of my hips and pulled me forward to the edge of my chair. My eyes went wide and his mouth immediately found the place that made the world disappear. I had to bite my lip to keep from gasping.
