As soon as the bead of sweat slipped to the center of her lips, her tongue darted out again only this time, I took advantage of the moment. I captured her lips, holding them slightly open as I breathed into her mouth.
She didn’t fight me. In fact, she wasn’t moving at all. Yet I could feel the rapid thudding of her heart. Maybe from excitement. Maybe from anxiety. Yet I could tell by the way her body responded to mine that she didn’t want this to end.
As the kiss continued, she moaned into my mouth and she began to tremble even more violently. I pumped harder, never breaking the connection of our lips even as she panted.
As another orgasm swept through her, I slowed my actions, taking my time to fill her completely. Her muscles constricted, her knees tightening against me. She was as lost in the moment we were sharing as I was.
Only when her legs relaxed did I fuck her even more savagely, easing up so we could both catch our breath. Her look was now one of determination and I instantly knew what she was trying to do.
Other than just drive me crazy.
She squeezed her muscles to the point every inch of my body spasmed. “You are so bad,” I managed.
“What did I tell you?”
I closed my eyes, now the one gasping for breath as my balls swelled. I wasn’t going to be able to hold back any longer.
As my cock continued to throb and I began to lose control, I realized she’d managed to untie herself when I felt a tightness around my neck. I’ll be damned the little vixen had managed to wrap the tie around my throat, tugging with both hands as she smiled like the wild child I knew her to be.
This wasn’t the time to react. I was in too much agony.
“Fuck.” Even though I tried to keep my voice low, the rumble was distinct. The rush was incredible, my body spasming as I filled her with my seed. She twisted her hands, tightening the noose and even while I was still throbbing, she began to pull me down. What the hell? I didn’t fight her on it.
There was plenty of time to ensure she knew who was in charge.
With our lips barely touching, she rolled one hand over my shoulder. And for a few precious seconds, nothing else in the world mattered.
No enemies trying to kill me.
No thoughts on further retaliation.
No family business.
No other concerns in the world.
Just the two of us.
CHAPTER 19
Halle
Perfect.
That’s what I would consider the way the night had gone.
Alexsey was the perfect date. The perfect sous chef. The perfect distraction for my daughter. The perfect storyteller.
And the perfect lover.
Except in a few short seconds, I was reminded there was no such thing as perfection in my world.
By a cough.
Not just one.
Several.
I jerked up my head, my heart pounding as I listened intently. Emily often coughed in her sleep and usually, she settled down with no issues.
