You Owe Me, Baby

by Simmons, Sabel

  “Why you even bothered dressing I don’t know.”

  She grossed her arms over her chest and glared at him.

  “I am tired and just want to sleep.”

  His eyebrows rose. “Really? Tired from what exactly?”

  She just looked at him and bit her lip. The damn man was just too gorgeous for his own good. His masculinity alone made her hot and bothered!

  “Come here, Red.” She shook her head and he sighed. “Now is not the best time to annoy me, amore. I am still angry about that kiss I witnessed.”

  “Gabriel … this … us, you know it … we …”

  “The fact that you’re stuttering tells me you are about to blubber a bunch of nonsense, so don’t bother. Now, are you going to come here, Red, or do I have to come and fetch you?”

  When she still did not move, he jumped up and before she could move picked her up and carried her to the bed. The moment he put her down next to the bed, he pulled her tee-shirt over her head and threw it on the floor. She shrieked and grabbed his hands when they closed over the band of her shorts. His eyes seared hers and she released his hands. Her shorts followed the same path her shirt did.

  He drew her in his arms and held her close, but only close enough for her nipples to touch his chest and nothing else. She gasped when they shriveled into hard nubs immediately and he groaned.

  “Aahh Red, you drive me crazy, do you know that?”

  He leaned closer and nibbled on her lower lip. His lips closed over the pouty lip and he pulled it into his mouth and sucked on it gently. She groaned and her hands closed around his arms. His tongue stroked her lip slowly. His hand circled her neck and fisted in her silky locks to tilt her face up slightly and then captured her lips with his.

  Sienna slipped her palms over his arms to his shoulders. She moaned as he deepened the kiss, her body melting into his. His shaft hardened instantaneously. He slipped his arm around her waist and pulled her tight against him, his erection pressing hard against her stomach.

  He turned and lifted her and lowered her gently on the bed, kicking his shorts down at the same time. He settled against her side with his one leg pushing up against her warm sheath between her legs. His kiss became demanding and he went deeper, sipping from her mouth like a starved man.

  Sienna moaned against his lips, her hands tracing over his back. She pulled her leg up and down against his, pushing her heated core against his leg. His kiss alone heated her up like a shimmering fire.

  His palm grazed her breast, cupping its weight and then his fingers closed around the nipple, pinching, tweaking and twisting. Heat swirled and added to the pressure and fire inside her. He kissed down her chin and licked and stroked his lips over her chest to close over the other nipple and pulled the hard nub into his mouth and suckled hard. She panted as the tugging of his fingers and lips on her breasts intensified the pressure in her core. He moved over to the other and suckled and nibbled until she moaned and arched her back.

  She mewled when his mouth left her breast and slowly kissed a trail of fire down her stomach. She felt his lips nip lower and lower and her belly quivered beneath his touch. He moved further down and she gasped and pulled at his hands.

  “Gabriel …no …”

  He would not be swayed and she groaned loudly when he kissed over her naked mount to slowly lick over her clit. He pushed her legs wider and lifted them over his shoulders and his warm mouth closed over her clit again. She mewled when he suckled and twirled his tongue over the tip. His one arm curled under her legs and his fingers closed around her nipple, gently tugging and pinching.

  Gabriel felt the trembling in his arms, the pleasure pain of his shaft that was rock hard and throbbing with need, fed higher and higher by her honeyed taste on his tongue. He suckled harder, pulled her clit deeper and slowly separated the folds covering her sheath to push a finger inside her. Slowly until he was all the way in and Sienna panted. Her one hand clutched at his arm caressing her breast and the other the pillow under her head. He pushed another finger and then another inside and kept them still, savoring her pulsing channel gripping them tight. He started plunging slowly all the way out and then fast all the way back in. She keened and her breathing came in haggard gasps.

  Her nipples tightened even more under his fingers and he felt the pulsing of her inner muscles intensifying around his fingers. He plunged harder, deeper and suckled faster and lapped at the tip of her clit with his tongue. Sienna felt as if barb-wire ripped through her core as her climax rippled through her whole body and she screamed when Gabriel suckled and swirled his tongue in circles around and over her clit and thrust his fingers in and out faster and faster. She panted to catch her breath, dizziness danced at the edge of her consciousness.

  “Gabriel … please … I …” she stuttered helplessly and he took pity on her and gentled his mouth on her clit and stilled his fingers inside her. Her felt the ripples receding and she started breathing again.

  He lifted his head and looked at her. Her eyes smoky and half lidded.

  “I love the way you climax, Baby! Again, Red … I want you to come for me again!”

  “No, Gabr … aaah!”

  She screamed when his mouth closed over her sheath and his tongue surged inside her body. He kissed her hard and deeply, lapping up her juices, swirling his tongue to touch the sides of her sheath and as far as he could reach. His fingers closed over her clit and he stroked slow circles around it and then pinched it. Her hips rose against his mouth and hands and when his fingers closed around her nipple and pinched in time with her clit, she was lost and moaned, screeched and mewled.

  Her body still has not recovered from her first climax and she hovered on the edge of another yet again. Gabriel lifted his mouth from her and looked at her. Her eyes were glassy and pleaded with his.

  “Now, Red … come for me!”

  His lips closed over her sheath again and his tongue flicked inside while he sucked hard. Sienna felt the explosion inside her and she screamed. Not a soft scream, a full blooded scream of pure pleasure. Gabriel watched her face when she came and it was the most beautiful sight he has ever seen.

  Her eyes were shut tight, her mouth gasping and her skin pulled tight in her release. She pulsed hard around his tongue and he moved over her quickly and pushed his shaft inside her. Slowly … inch by inch … savoring her pulsing channel around him. Her breath caught and she clawed at his arms, desperate for a proper breath. Gabriel leaned down and kissed her softly on her lips.

  He was settled all the way to the hilt and clenched his teeth to keep from plunging inside her, she gripped and milked him so tight, still in the throes of her climax, it was agony.

  He stood up on his knees and pulled her with him so that her back arched and her shoulders were flush on the bed.

  “Red, look at me … amore … look at me!”

  She opened her eyes and looked at him through a haze of pleasure still pulsing through her, only starting to recede. She mewled when he pulled back slowly and kept her eyes on him. She panted when his fingers circled her clit and she tried to shy away. She was super sensitive and still swollen from the two hard climaxes she just had. He was relentless and kept circling her clit, then pinched it hard. She shouted and tried to avoid his touch once more. He circled her clit lazily again and then just before he pinched it hard told her,

  “Now Red, come for me now! Again! Now Red!”

  He plunged into her hard and deep at the same time. She exploded around him, her scream echoing in the room. She gripped him hard as she milked him in desperation to survive her third climax - the one after the other - that he only had to thrust into her once more and his own climax ripped through him so intense he saw black. His legs trembled and he pressed forward hard and deep pushing her back against the bed, pumping short desperate thrusts to ride his climax out.

  They both collapsed breathlessly and Gabriel slumped heavily and totally replete on top of her. Sienna’s body was one pulsing mass and she trembled all o
ver.

  And still it was not enough. He made love to her for hours into the night. Taking all the pleasure he could draw from her body. Pleasures and demands that she was helpless to withstand. Pleasures that increased her debt more and more with each passing hour.

  Chapter Nine

  “I am sorry, Elaine, but I do not feel comfortable that you are well enough just yet to get on a plane for such a long flight. You need rest and recover first. Maybe in four of five weeks.”

  Neither one of the three people staring at William Salt was impressed with his response on whether she could go with to Italy. Neither one of them for the same reasons.

  Sienna in a way was relieved. It would give her the distance she needed to put between her and Gabriel. They moved from meeting each other to intense lovers in record time and she had to break the mold he was pouring around her. His touch has become an addiction. She craved his hands, his mouth and his lips on her all the time. Her core pulsed just thinking of him. Her heart … her heart warmed at the thought of him, beat a mile a minute when he looked into her eyes … she did not want to believe it … did not trust it. One did not fall in love on sight! Yet, that was what was in her heart, what she so desperately tried to deny and fight. But fighting her heart and Gabriel … was just too hard. She needed to be away from him to find perspective … to explore what was real and what was lust.

  Elaine needed to get away from Washington. Away from the searching and intense eyes of her Heart Specialist, William Salt. She met him a few months ago at an art gallery and they immediately were attracted to one another. At her age Elaine did not trust flutters of the heart anymore. It has been so long she had someone to love and treasure she did not know what it felt like. She needed time to understand the feelings she felt in her heart.

  Gabriel literally glared at the silver haired specialist. For the first time in his life he had a woman that gave him everything he ever wanted. Beauty, sensuality, intelligence and honesty. Most of all, a woman that challenged him. That seemed unfazed by his status as King. He needed time with her. Time to see if it was all real. If the feelings inside him were what he has craved for his whole life.

  There was a heavy silence in the room once he left. Each one engrossed in their thoughts. Gabriel stood looking at Sienna. She felt his gaze and looked up. The electrical charge sizzled across the room the moment their eyes met.

  “Gabriel, I hope you understand that I need to stay with Gramps. She is the only family I have left and I can’t leave her alone. Not knowing she is not well.”

  “I am fine honey. You really don’t have to baby me. Salt is just being over cautious.”

  Gabriel looked at Elaine and noticed the slight paleness of her skin and the trembling of her hands. However much she was pretending, she was still sick and needed someone to care for her. He sighed and looked back at Sienna. He nodded.

  “I understand, Red. I don’t like it, but it is fine. I am mostly going to be in Rome over the following month to finalize the project we are busy with, anyway.”

  He walked around the bed and took her face in his hands and tilted her face up to his. His eyes were as warm as liquid gold.

  “Just know one thing, Red. When I do come to fetch you, you have a large debt you owe me. We have a lot of talking to do … but it will have to wait until you come home.”

  She blinked at how right it sounded when he said when she came home and blushed about the reminder of how they spent the night. At the ecstasy she received in his arms. She watched his head lower and closed her eyes when his soft, warm lips covered hers in a passionate, yet short kiss.

  “Are you ready to go home, Gramps?”

  She smiled between her tears, the tender moment between the two young people making her heart strings quiver.

  Gabriel took them home and made sure Elaine was comfortable in her room, before he fetched his bag from the room.

  “Now, Gramps. I am going to phone every day and I don’t want to hear that you are not resting and improving. Sienna has a job to finish and I need her there sooner rather than later.”

  “Hm … I hear you, King! I am not so sure it is for the job you need her there!”

  “Gramps!” Sienna blushed and Gabriel chuckled.

  “You are very perceptive, Gramps. I have to go. Sienna, walk with me.”

  He gave Elaine a peck on her cheek and took Sienna’s hand and drew her with him down the stairs and out to where the car was parked. He turned and wrapped his arms around her waist. His eyes glowed like burnt sand.

  “I don’t want you to worry about the work. There is no time limit on having it done. Concentrate on getting Gramps on her feet again.”

  He sifted his fingers through her hair to twist his hand in their silkiness behind her neck. He pulled her closer and his lips closed over hers, softly stroking and entering her mouth for a shatteringly tender kiss. She leaned into the kiss and her arms wrapped under his to clasp him tight against her. He groaned and lifted his head.

  “It is going to be a long five weeks! Remember, Red …you owe me, Baby!”

  “Gabriel … this … whatever it is, should not have happened. You and I don’t want the same things, and I told you I am not going to become one of your flock!”

  His lips flattened and he glared at her.

  “If that is how you see yourself, you have not bothered to really try and learn more about me. That is quite disappointing, Sienna.”

  “Exactly! We don’t know each other at all, yet we have this … this … physical …”

  “What? Sex? Is that it? That is all how you see us? Very well, Red. If that is the distinction you want to put on the relationship, so be it. I give you five weeks and then you better be back on the Island and in my bed. You owe me so much at this point; I’ll have Benito move you directly into my room!”

  He pushed her away with irritation and she watched him speed away with her mouth gaping open.

  The gall of the man! To straight out tell me I am nothing more than a sex object! He had another thing coming if he thinks I am moving into his room!

  If her Gramps were there, she would have told her that it was not what he said, rather his reaction to her fears she did not voice very well.

  Gabriel nursed his anger all the way back to Rome. He decided to go directly there and concentrate on work, rather than go home where he would be reminded of Sienna all over the house.

  He supposed he should not really be surprised about how she viewed their relationship. However the fact that he dropped everything to take her to her grandmother on another continent should have told her it was more than just a sexual relationship. At least he did enough retrospect over the past few days to acknowledge that much to himself. Why couldn’t she? Did she stare herself so blind against his royalty that she really did not see the man and his needs too? Did she really believe all she was to him was a body to spend his sexual frustrations on?

  He phoned Leonardo from the plane and they arranged to meet up for a late dinner as soon as he landed. Leonardo told him he already arranged dinner with some friends and he could join them as soon as he arrived. He reluctantly agreed, hoping it was more male than female friends he invited.

  Gabriel walked into the restaurant just after eight and sighed heavily when he noticed Leonardo, Michael and four women of which two he did not know. They all perked up when he approached the table and Leonardo greeted and introduced him around the table.

  Jessica Chastain was a dark haired beauty and the daughter of one of the richest oil magnates in Europe. A proper spoilt brat and socialite that lived the high flyer life. Never worked a day in her life and her only interest was to be seen with the rich and famous.

  They met a few years ago and had a very brief fling. As brief as going on two dates and having sex twice over a period of two weeks thereafter. They bumped into each other now and then, but he had no interest in renewing any kind of relationship with her. Her wide and flirtatious smile was indicative of her desire to pick up on that b
rief fling once again. He greeted everyone and made a point of taking a seat on the opposite side of the table than Jessica.

  Unfortunately that placed him next to Freda Simmental, a blond cousin of Michael, an old school friend of theirs. She latched onto his arm immediately and draped herself against his side. He sighed in frustration. All he wanted tonight was a relaxing time with his friend so he could forget about a very irritating and sensual redhead that has taken over his mind.

  “King Gabriel, I am so happy you decided to join us! I have wanted to meet you since I was a little girl. Oh … that is my favorite song! Please dance with me, Gabriel!”

  Michael tried to stem his cousin, but was too late and Gabriel was forced to do the polite thing and escorted her to the small dance floor on the side of the restaurant.

  “Oh, this is so nice. A strong man’s arms around a woman is still the best feeling there is. Don’t you agree, Gabriel?”

  He grunted and smiled politely at her wincing when a bright flash nearly blinded him. He could just imagine what the photo would look like. She hung on him like a vine and the fact that he held her loosely mattered little to the hungry paparazzi. She was relatively tall and before he knew it she locked her lips on his and rubbed against his body. More flashes followed and he got angry.

  He extracted himself from her arms and steered her complaining towards the table, flashing Michael an annoyed glare. Michael was clearly annoyed at his cousin and took her arm and pulled her outside with him to take her to task. Gabriel sat down, relieved that the food had arrived and started eating. He asked Leonardo for a quick rundown on the progress with Real Deal Stores.

  Jessica sat watching him broodingly. Very annoyed that he has effectively ignored her the whole evening, apart from a brief smile when he greeted her. She was not used to be ignored and took her plate of food and promptly moved to sit on the chair vacated by Freda.
