Ensnared (The Accidental Billionaires #1)(67)

I leaned forward again, putting my hands on his chest. “Just come, Eli,” I said. “Don’t hold back.”

“I’ll never come without you,” he said roughly as he reached a hand between our bodies and found my clit.

It took very little stimulation to set me off.

My channel clenched hard around Eli’s cock as I shuddered my way to climax.

He tightened his hold on my hips and started to slam his hips up in a frenzied pace while he put a hand around the back of my neck and pulled my mouth down for a kiss that tasted like love, lust, hot and sweaty sex, and intense orgasm.

I lay sprawled across his chest, my body totally spent as I tried to catch my breath.

My entire body was limp, but Eli was cradling me protectively, so I knew I’d eventually recover.

When I could move, I slid to Eli’s side, and his arm tightened around me again.

Emotions welled up inside me, and they were all so jumbled that I couldn’t identify much except the love that I had for the man who had just completely rocked my world.

“I love you,” I told him.

“I love you, too, baby,” he answered.

It was the last thing I remembered hearing before I fell asleep.





CHAPTER 30

JADE



“How is it that I never heard about Austin?” I asked carefully as Eli and I ate breakfast the next morning. “I never even knew you had a twin at all, much less that he was addicted to drugs.”

I watched as Eli devoured the eggs, bacon, and pancakes I’d just put in front of him moments before.

He was easy to stare at since he’d only pulled on a pair of jeans and was shirtless.

He paused and downed some of his coffee before he spoke. “My parents tried to protect both Austin and me from the media. My dad worked especially hard on keeping my brother’s addiction problem a family issue. They kept a low profile and pretty much just worked. The press had nothing to talk about.”

“Until you broke out with crazy stuff,” I said.

He nodded. “I wanted the attention because of my charities, and I managed to attract a lot of celebrities and athletes for my events. Especially racing. The events got a lot of publicity.”

I sat down, and we were quiet for a few minutes as we ate. When I finally put my fork down, I said, “I’m full.”

I had to wonder whether I still had Ben & Jerry’s overload from the night before.

He lifted an eyebrow. “What happened to my woman who likes to eat?”

“I ate plenty,” I answered, and then swiped his empty plate and pushed mine in front of him. “Can you finish it?”

“After last night, I’m pretty sure I can,” he teased.

“You need to keep up your energy,” I agreed, watching as he plowed through the rest of my uneaten food.

“Do you have any complaints?” he rumbled.

I sighed. “Not one.”

Eli could surpass any of the romance heroes I read about. In fact, he was so much more than I’d ever imagined. He was relentless, and we’d both been greedy all night long. I doubted that I could ever get enough of him, even though every part of my body was sore from overuse. And I was exhausted because we only slept for short periods throughout the night.

“Unless you want me to burn all this energy I just put in, I suggest you wear something other than my sweater.”

The garment was so warm, and I never wanted to take it off because it smelled like Eli.

“I’ll get it cleaned,” I told him with a smile.

“Baby, I’m not worried about clean clothes. I have stuff next door. But every time you bend over, I can see that gorgeous ass.”

“Is that a problem for you?” I provoked.

He gave me a deliciously dangerous look. “You know it is,” he said in a raspy voice.

There was something incredibly wicked about poking the beast, and Eli could become an alpha caveman in a New York minute.

To be honest, I loved bringing out the impatient, dominant male side of him. It wasn’t the least bit daunting, because he only became that man with me. And it was the hottest damn thing I’d ever seen.

I got up and started clearing the table, and I could feel his eyes watching me as I repeatedly and purposely bent over to reach across the space.

When I was done, I moved next to him and bent to pick up an imaginary piece of lint on the floor.

He was on me before I could blink.

I savored the feel of his powerful chest pressing against my back, and his jean-clad erection against my rear.

“You were warned, Butterfly,” he growled into my ear.

“I guess I wasn’t all that scared,” I said breathlessly as I placed my hands flat on the table.

I trembled as his hand stroked over my ass.

“I still don’t know whether to spank this or fucking worship it,” he rasped, his voice heavy with need.

“Maybe both,” I suggested hopefully.

Eli turned me on no matter how he touched me, and I didn’t suppose it would be any different if he slapped my ass. As long as he fucked me after he was done.

He pressed gently on my back, lowering my upper body to the wood surface and making my ass go up in the air.

I don’t think I was quite ready for the feel of his big, strong hand connecting with my ass.
