Fever (Breathless #2)(73)

Hell, he had to stop looking at her lips. His dick was already about to bust out of his pants. He had to focus on something else because all he could imagine were those swollen lips wrapped around his cock.

She ran her tongue over her top lip, a nervous gesture that made him groan out loud. She jumped when the sound exploded from his mouth and he reached automatically to reassure her.

“Christ, baby, if you only knew what I was imagining about those lips and then you run your tongue over them. There’s only so much I can take.”

A gleam entered her eyes. “How long do we have?”

His brows furrowed. “How long do you need?”

She slid her hand between his legs. “I think that depends on you.”

He fumbled for the intercom. “Take the long route.”

“Yes, sir.”

Bethany’s hand had already slipped into his pants, past his boxer briefs. His breath escaped in a long hiss when her fingers curled around his rigid length. Then she leaned in, her mouth hovering precariously close to his.

“Do I have permission to suck your cock?”

He nearly came on the spot. Her breath blew warm over his mouth and it took every ounce of his control not to roll her over on the seat and f**k her until they both passed out.

“Hell yeah,” he breathed.

“Help me out,” she murmured as she tugged at his fly.

“Happy to oblige.”

He yanked his pants down and heard the ripping of material. He shoved them down his thighs, allowing his swollen, aching dick to surge upward.

“Tell me how you want it,” she whispered.

Her gaze found his and he saw uncertainty shining. His heart softened. She was trying but she was also scared and unsure. She wanted his dominance. She needed it. Just like he needed her.

His hand tangled in her hair and he brought her forward, pulling her head down to the tip of his dick.

“Take it deep,” he said.

Her tongue tentatively found the slit where pr**um already beaded and he groaned when she traced a path around the head of his cock. He curled his hands around her nape, stroking and massaging, offering silent encouragement.

She slid her lips down his length, covering him inch by inch with her warm, wet mouth. The pleasure was intense. Almost unbearable. So f**king exquisite.

“When I tell you to stop, you stop immediately, okay?” he said.

She glanced up, his dick sliding from her lips. She nodded.

“You feel f**king amazing, baby. But if I come now, it’s going to shoot my plans for the evening all to hell. I’ll let you work me up until we get to my place. But then I’m taking you up to my bed and I’m going to tie you up, hold you down, and f**k you until you scream my name.”

A shiver worked up her body. Her pupils flared and her lips parted in a quick gasp. Her pulse accelerated against his fingers where he circled her wrists. He smiled at her reaction. It was definitely time to take the gloves off. She was ready. He sure as hell was ready.

But still, he’d give her one last chance to opt out. To tell him if she wasn’t ready. He’d never do anything to push her too hard, too fast.

“If you’re not ready for this, you need to tell me now, baby. You need to understand what’s going to happen tonight. I’ve held back because I didn’t want to rush you. I didn’t want to overwhelm or frighten you. Tonight, though, it’s going to be a different story. I’m going to use a crop on your pretty ass. I’m going to mark you. I’m going to own you. I’m going to f**k you like you’ve never been f**ked. Do you understand? Can you accept that? Tonight you step into my world.”

She nodded slowly, her eyes wide.

“Be sure, Bethany. Be very sure of this. And at any point, if it’s no longer what you want, then you tell me no. It’s that simple. You say no and it stops. Instantly.”

“Okay,” she whispered.

“Are you afraid?”

She shook her head.

“Is this what you want?”

She nodded.

“Baby, talk to me. You’re starting to worry me.”

She smiled then and his relief was crushing. She wasn’t afraid. She truly wanted this.

“I want you, Jace. The real you. I don’t want you to hold back. What you want excites me. I just hope I won’t disappoint you.”

He groaned. “Jesus, baby, you have to stop with that shit. You aren’t going to disappoint me. The fact that you’re giving yourself so sweetly to me. That you trust me. That you’ll allow me to do any damn thing I want to. That’s a f**king dream. Hell no, you won’t disappoint me. It’s not possible.”

She leaned forward to kiss him, her hands curling around his erection once more.

“How much more time do we have now?” she murmured against his mouth.

Chapter twenty-six

Bethany knelt on the rug in Jace’s bedroom, her entire body taut with anticipation. Jace stalked around her, circling her like a predator would his prey. She felt deliciously hunted. She tingled from head to toe over all the things Jace had said he would do to her tonight.

She had told Jace the truth when she’d said that she’d just about tried it all during her sex-as-oblivion phase. Kink, no kink, she’d been open to anything. The overwhelming difference, however, was that she’d never done any of those things with a person who truly cared about her and whose priority was her well-being and pleasure.
