Page 48 of His Smile
“Explain to me why you wentout with him tonight,” he said, still holding her feet on his raised knee.
She jumped a bit when shefelt the sudden warmth of his hand cover the bottom of one of her feet. It onlymade her want to cry in shame and sigh at the comfort at the same time.
“I was just being cruel,” sheadmitted in a voice barely above a whisper unable to meet his eyes. She hadnever felt this exposed, and this vulnerable, sitting here topless with herbadly worn feet held hostage by the man she wanted to hide them from."After that family dinner, I had to go to, I realized how much Dev and hisfamily want to be a part of ours. I felt betrayed and annoyed that someone whoclaims they are interested in me could just watch my family gang up on me asthey interrogated me about the car you gave me. It annoyed me that hecontinuously texts me and tries to guilt me into seeing him, and I realized Icould get him and my mother back at the same time.”
Still stroking her feet, helooked up at her with a raised brow. “By showing him exactly what he is missingout on?”
“No! Yes—maybe,” shebegrudgingly admitted. “But mostly to have him go back and tell my mom and dadlike I know he will about my new lease on life.”
“Which is?” he urged, movingto massage her other foot.
"Roman," shewhined, trying to pull back her feet, but he held them firm and stared back ather with seemingly all the patience in the world. Sighing, she used both armsto hug around her chest. “I really planned on telling you all of this in a muchbetter circumstance.”
“Then you should havethought of that fact earlier,” he quipped happily. “If it helps, I already knowof your transition to Ephemeral and your new principal title.”
Annoyed, she pouted at him.“I told you not to look.”
He ignored that. “What didyou want Dev to tell your parents?”
Shrugging, she looked awayas she answered. “Just that I quit my pursuit of my master’s degree and my lifewill be ran my way from now on.”
“And how is that?”
Remembering what she said,she turned back and gave Roman a sly look. “I believe I told him sex, fastcars, and scandal.”
His stroking hands on herfeet stopped, and now he was the one looking at her with the mischievous gleam.“All three are my specialty.”
Relief flooded her as sheheld his gaze for a moment, feeling emboldened by it. Smiling, she lifted herarms from her chest and leaned back onto both hands, pushing her breasts uphigh. "Exactly."
Roman let out a low rumbleof approval in his chest as he lowered her legs down to the floor, partingthem. Kneeling in between her legs, Roman glided his hands up her calves and toher thighs. Her breath hitched as they both watched his fingers catch on thehem of her panties, pulling them slowly down and off her legs. Completely nakedin front of him, Rahina felt herself growing self-conscious again.
Giving her a gentle teasingsmile, Roman murmured something under his breath in his language as he liftedto kiss her again.
“What did you say?” shetried to ask under the assault of his kiss. Unlike the others however, thiskiss was far more demanding, reaching deeper and forcing more from her as hepushed her flat on to the bed.
Moaning deeply into thekiss, she relished in the feel of his large body on top of hers, pressing herdeeper into the covers. Wantonly, she opened her legs to him as she felt hisfingers glide to the apex of her thighs and sink into the short, wiry curls.Arching her back, her body grew hotter at the sound of his pleased groanagainst her lips. Breathless, she renewed her efforts and framed his face withher hands as she stroked her tongue against his, kissing him with a franticneed.
“Rahina,” he whispered ineither a warning or need, she could not tell. She was too lost in the feelingof his fingers lightly petting and brushing just above her clit.
It was driving her crazy,she wanted more of his touch, but each time she lifted her hips, Roman onlymoved his hand out of reach.
“Please,” she mewled intohis lips.
Pulling away from her, hisgray eyes reminded her of lightning streaking across a dark sky, the energybehind them was something she never seen before. Her breasts felt heavy andtender in response. Watching him snatch off his jacket and shirt, Roman lefthis pants on as he kneeled back between her bent legs. Frissons of heat thumpedthrough her as she realized what he was going to do. Grabbing her knees, hepulled her further down before placing each one over his thick tattooedshoulders.
Embarrassed at his current view of her, Rahina didn’t know what to dowith herself for a long few seconds. The tender kiss to her clit stole both herbreath and a portion of her soul. Clenching his shoulders between her legs,Rahina cried out shakily as he repeated the tortuously soft kisses. Lookingdown at him, past her naked breasts and quivering stomach, Roman looked up frombetween the black triangle of curls and met her gaze—and grinned. Never takinghis eyes from hers, he turned his head and placed a kiss on the inside of herleft thigh along the inner seam of her legs where the curls began, beforeturning and placing another on her delicate folds. Clutching the sheets in herhands, her body began to tremble as he hovered back over the spot she needed.Looking back down, he used one hand and parted her flesh, revealing the swollenpearl of nerves fully to him. Ignoring her desperate whimper, he began to tease her, placing small evil kisses around thetiny nub but never quite touching it, until she was gasping and crying hisname.
With one last mean smile, he took pity on herand covered the small bud with the heat of his mouth, sucking it in between histeeth. Rahina cried out as his tongue gently batted her clit back and forth,wringing her voice from her throat. Repositioning her legs, she felt his handsgrab the back of her knees and push them higher, spreading her with indecentsavagery as he feasted. The sounds from his mouth and her desperate moansfilled the silent room. Urging her higher against his mouth, Roman swirled histongue and teased a finger at the opening of her entrance until she felt thewild heat of the building pleasure crash into her, letting out a piercing cryshe shook against him. Even as the last exquisite tremor faded and her dazedmind slipped out of reality, she felt his mouth still gently suckling againsther, slowly working her spent body back down.
Rahina had never felt like this before. It felt as if she was lost in ahazy pink sea and only vaguely could she hear the rustle of clothing.
The grip on her hips brought her to focus from her daze. Roman turnedher over to lie on her stomach.
“Get on your knees," he ordered from behind her.
Feeling suddenly apprehensive, she pushed herself upward just enough toturn and look over her shoulder. "Can’t we just do it normally for thefirst time,” her voice sounded small but dried in her throat as she realized hewas now completely naked.
He was more than anything she had ever imagined. Built like a titan,Roman stood over her, his naked tattooed body brimming with power. Naturally,her eyes dropped to the jutting length protruding from between his legs and herbody shrank away from it. Uncircumcised, it hung heavy and thick, bobbinggently with each movement.
