Her back hit the wall and he grabbed her about the waist, molding her pelvis to his. She felt his desire. Hot, hard, and pulsing against her.
Jayson tore his lips away from her and his gaze bore into hers.
She immediately wrapped her fingers around the back of his neck and pulled him back down to her. Persuading him to join her in a deeper kiss, one that ignited the flames between her legs. Their tongues swirled deliriously together. The taste of him was orgasmic. One taste was all it took. She couldn’t get enough of it.
They separated for air, but his lips remained on her. The tip of his tongue sliced across the vein on her neck and he sucked at her flesh. Each delicious stroke of his tongue had her shuddering in wanton longing.
He bared her breasts, pushing the straps of her dress down her shoulders. She hissed when his lips closed in on her nipple. His body held her firm to the wall as he bent to suckle.
“Jayson,” she moaned.
A low growl rumbled in his throat in answer.
He kneaded a globe in his hand and skillfully teased the nipples and aureolas until they were taut. Her pussy clenched in exquisite pleasure as he took a wet tongue to the other breast. He suckled hungrily on her, and she propped her back against the wall. It was the only think she could do to hold herself up, as her legs became weak from Jayson’s licks of torture.
He made her turn around and placed her palms against the glass. She turned to protest, but he kissed her lips. The sound of her zipper being undone joined with the sound of their synchronized heavy breathing. Her dress slipped down her hips and fell to the floor at her feet. His hot roving tongue traced the crook of her neck.
Her eyelids fluttered closed as he found the area where he’d nipped her so long ago. The mark that almost was…
A whimper escaped her lips as he gave the spot his full attention. Over the years, his mark had faded, but from the jolts of pleasure shooting from the area down her back and spine, she could tell there was something still there.
“It pleases me to know that you’re still unclaimed,” he whispered against her shoulder.
“I bet it does.” She pressed her forehead against the cold glass, and her heated breath fogged it.
Jayson traced the edges of her lace panties, slipping under the fabric. His fingers brushed against the lips of her pussy. Heavenly sensations washed through her and she bit her bottom lip to keep from uttering another cry. He parted her, stroking her clit and sending her nerves in a frenzy. All the while, he teased the unfinished mark on her neck.
He pushed two fingers up into her and pumped. The other hand played with her nipples. She pressed her ass against his erection and reminisced on the way he used to fuck her. There had never been another man who could bring her to completion so proficiently.
Before long, he’d worked her so well that she trembled against him, reaching her climax in his embrace.
Arianna turned around, barely able to stand, to find his finger between his lips. The sight of it turned her on. Perhaps it was the alcohol still in her system or maybe she was drunk off her own climax. She reached between them and tore his zipper open. In only seconds, his cock was free of the confines of his jeans and boxer briefs. When she caught a glance of nothing but nine and a half inches of rock hard muscle, she knew she wouldn’t be able to resist him.
Her fingers curled around the hot rigid column of arousal. She forced him back until his legs hit the back of the couch, and bent on her knees to admire him.
He lifted his head to the ceiling and moaned as she took care in caressing every inch of him. She remembered every vivid detail. The way the head plumped like a ripe berry when he was extremely aroused. The way the blood rushed against the veins and pulsed against her fingers. Even down to the taste of his precum. Many nights, this same vivid picture had brought her to climax when she pleasured herself.
She tightened her palm around him, causing a clear drop of semen to escape the tip. Her tongue instinctively ran across her lips before she licked up the sweet drop, dipping inside the delicate slit for more. It would only take minutes, and she could have him on the verge of climax. Or she could draw out his release to drive him crazy. She knew all too well how to send Jayson over the edge.
Arianna dragged her tongue against the vein leading up the bulbous tip and took him inside her. She rolled it around and sucked on the head. Her mouth watered as she thirsted for more of his taste.
He groaned in discontent when she released him.
“Are you teasing me?” Jayson lifted her to her feet, and kissed her firmly on the mouth. “Do you realize how long it’s been since I’ve had you?”
She grinned. “I realize that…yes.”
“Say the words and I can fix that.”
“Why should I have to say them…” she met his gaze “…when you already know?”
Jayson picked her up and was across the room in seconds. He threw her in the center of his bed and her body sunk into the plush comforter. She blushed as he stood over her and undressed. He tore his shirt over his head and tossed it on the floor behind him. His body was just as she’d last seen it. Lean and ripped from spending countless hours working in and running through the forest. And tanned from sitting under the sun too long. He ran his fingers through his wild black hair, confirming for her that he had still not dropped that devilish habit.
How could one man cause any woman to drop to her knees in one heartbeat? Gift, or no gift. Magic. Power. Whatever it was… it should have been a sin to have so much sex appeal. There should have been a punishment for using it on innocent victims.
He was still rock solid from her teasing and she was ready to be taken.
She spread her legs and glanced at him coyly.
He wasted no time as he knelt on the bed in front of her, parting her thighs, and sliding her panties aside. When first his tongue sliced through her, she jerked her hips in surprise on the bed. He darted in and out of the folds of her sex with his tongue, but paid no immediate attention to her aching clit.
Arianna grabbed handfuls of the comforter and bit back her cries. He licked her with leisurely strokes. He pushed her thighs open wide using his shoulders and touched her softly with the pads of his fingers.
“I remember the very first time I saw your pretty pussy,” he said, between licks.
She lifted her hips slightly off the bed, offering herself in total to him.
“You were only seventeen then. Your father and mine were finishing their discussions. It was so boring when you left to retire to bed. I thought I’d come say goodnight…”
He slid his day old stubble against her thighs, and she trembled once more.
“I knocked on your bedroom door but you didn’t answer. I opened it anyway…”
She’d heard the story before and yet every time he brought it up again, the memories brought a hot blush to her face.
“Gods, you were beautiful. The way your legs were spread wide on the bed with your hands between your thighs playing with your pussy. You were glistening wet with honey…” he pushed two fingers inside of her “…just like this. I wanted to taste you. You looked so fucking good.”
Jayson stopped mid-speech to devour her. He sipped at the swollen lips of her pussy and her pleasure build up tightening inside of her.
“It was the sexiest thing I had ever seen. Damn, I needed to fuck you that night. I wanted to give you what you craved.”
He licked at her clit, but not enough to send her over the edge.
“Jayson, please…” He was teasing her and knew she was on the verge of orgasm.
“I went home that night with visions of your sweet pussy on my mind, declaring that one day I would have you for dessert first and then fuck you senseless. Not just imagine it. I would cum in your pussy and not in my hand.”
“Please.”
“Is that what you want now, Arianna?”
“Yes. Now.”
He captured the aching bud, sucking and licking until she was writhing on the bed.
His palms cupped her ass and he pulled her closer to his mouth. When he buried his tongue within her, her thighs quaked. She let go, cried out in pleasure and let all her inhibitions go. Her release was more than sexual and all the tension in her body disappeared.
When she was sated, Jayson crawled over her with a sinister grin on his face. She felt a shy smile spreading across her lips as well. She captured his face between her palms and pulled him down for a kiss.
He rolled over so that she was on top, lifted her hips, and positioned his dick at the entrance of her pussy. She slid down, biting her lips as she took him inch by inch. It had been over a year since they’d been together. He fit snugly inside of her. The controlled and blissful expression on his face told her that it was just as good for him as well.
“I’ve waited too long for this,” he said, guiding her hips further down until she had taken all of him.
Arianna began moving on him, pumping her hips slowly at first and adjusting to his size. Her clit still pulsed from her climax earlier.
“Look at me when you’re fucking me, Arianna.”
She did, knowing that she would get lost in his stormy gray eyes. It had always been that way. Whenever they were together like this, nothing else matter. It was easy to forget problems and priorities.
Jayson was dangerous for her. She knew it, but always there was some compassion and desire that made it difficult for her to deny him.
He lifted the top half of his body and took her lips in a kiss. The angle created warm friction between them and just the right amount of pressure to her clit. His mouth clamped over a nipple and he suckled her as she rode him. A delicious sensation rushed through her and her core tightened into what flourished into yet another orgasm.
Without parting them, he repositioned and cradled her until her back hit the bed. He grabbed the outsides of her thighs and pushed into her, burying himself deep. Once he began to move, every cell in her body relinquished itself to the moment. As she’d done many, many times before she let her fingers become tangled in his hair.
He drove into her over and over again with adept accuracy. Her pussy milked him as though it were deprived. He pressed his damp forehead against hers. His thrusts intensified, and she felt him grow tense above her.
“Arianna…”
The way her name rolled off his tongue triggered a gratifying feeling that gripped her, taking her deeper into the moment. She raised her hips to meet his and wound her arms securely around him.
Jayson’s erection seemed to grow thicker inside of her as his body plunged into what was the beginning of a climax. As he pulsated within her throughout his orgasm, he held her tightly to his chest.
Arianna gasped when hot seed seared her insides. The sensation spread throughout her, reaching the surface and sending tremors across her skin. It was as though he were branding her from the inside out. Delivering the serum her body craved. She’d come to learn that this feeling could only be achieved with Jayson.
Just like in the past, she would be satisfied until his essence faded usually within a few hours. And then she’d want him again…and again. Her body would hunger for him because she would never be fulfilled unless she acquiesced completely by taking his bite and accepting him as mate.
He was an addiction. Her weakness. One she’d tried to subdue over the past year—by staying away from him.
Arianna fought to regain normal breathing and reign in her control.
“I missed this,” Jayson whispered, and then he took her in his arms as he lay out beside her.
“Me, too.” She curled up against him and surrendered her body…but this time it was to exhaustion.
CHAPTER SIX
Jayson was on his third double cheeseburger and they were getting more than a few stares from customers seated at the tables nearby. There was no shame in his game as he went to town on the platter of food piled high in front of him.
Arianna sipped her chocolate milkshake and glanced over the glass at him.
It had probably been a bad idea to come out in public with a starving wolf. The way he gobbled down his lunch made it seem as if he hadn’t eaten in days.
“When was the last time you ate?” she asked.
“Yesterday.” He picked up a group of fries, plunged them in some ketchup, and stuffed his mouth.
“When was the last time you fed your wolf?”
He paused, took a few sips of water, and then ran his hand through his hair. “Two weeks ago.”
Although the human branch of the Caedmon’s could not shift, she knew the consequences for depriving the wolf of food and other essentials were detrimental as a whole. His kind was relentless and adamant in their conquests.
“I need a cab back to my father’s,” she said.
“No,” he answered quickly.
Arianna frowned. “What do you mean, no?”
“If you go to him alone, you will be in danger. Which is a sad fact considering that he is your own flesh and blood. Zeldano’s men were chasing you like their lives depended on it. This leads me to believe that there is more at stake here than the contract. What aren’t you telling me?”
Arianna looked down at her cold fries and half-eaten cheeseburger. He was right. Zeldano didn’t just want her agreement in ink. He wanted a different type of union altogether.
“What’s done is done,” she said. “You can get out of this mess, but I can’t.”
Jayson sat back in his chair. “He will always be your father. I know.”
“Either way, I haven’t spoken with him since I found out. I might be able to convince him to withdraw his proposal in the new venture.”
“How?”
“Zeldano isn’t exactly the ideal partner,” she said.
Jayson lifted an eyebrow. “Know something I don’t?”
“I’d only been an employee for a few months at Drake and Murphy until I was bribed to resign. This firm and its owners had vast connections with the wealthy and elite of the world. They knew enough about Zeldano’s dealings to decline his many proposals. His agendas are ruthless.”
Jayson drew his eyes into small slits. “Interesting.”
“Time is running out. I need to do this now.”
“If you can wait a few hours, I’ll go to my office and sign my part of the agreement to end our partnership. We'll dissolve the business and cash out on the shares.”
“Don’t act in haste. Think carefully about what you plan to do. My father would have moved on with his plans one way or the other even without you holding up his shares,” she said.
“I’ve been thinking carefully about it for over a decade. It’s time.”
“He wanted me to sign the initial contract to get the deal on paper before the investors bailed. Now that you plan to free up his shares, I have to convince him that depositing the proceeds into Zeldano’s business is a bad idea.”
Jayson frowned. “You might be able to convince him that his intentions will lead him into more trouble, because I certainly can’t.”
“Why have you been stalling anyway? The actual offer to dissolve has been on the table for months.”
Jayson’s Adam’s apple bobbed in his throat, and he glared directly at her. “I think you know.”
Her shoulders slumped. “You would endure an unhealthy business relationship and possibly lose loyal clients to keep me in your life?”
“I would do anything to keep you in my life,” he said through clenched teeth.
“This isn’t about me anymore.” She pulled her chair back from the table and stood. “I love my father, but no one else should suffer because of his imprudence. It’s time you cut the ties, Jayson.”
He threw enough money on the table to cover the check and tip, and they headed for the door.
As Arianna jumped on the bike behind Jayson, she knew that this one solution wouldn’t solve what had turned out to be an army of problems.
As they drove up to the gates of her father’s mansion, Jayson came to a slow stop.
&
nbsp; Custom built in an elite neighborhood more than a decade ago; this was the home that Arianna had spent the majority of her childhood. It was the home where he’d frequented many times with his father and by himself to conduct business with Mr. Klein. It was also the home where he snuck in to visit Arianna many times in the past during their secret relationship. A relationship she’d tried to conceal from her father out of fear that he’d disown her.
A guard came from behind the post and approached them.
Arianna took off her helmet. “It’s me, Roy. Let us through.”
Without further hesitation, the guard pushed the buttons that opened the gates. Jayson pulled his bike up and halted next to the gravel walkway beside the iron horse sculpture.
The three-car garage door was closed, but there was a light shining in a window on the first floor in her father’s office. He knew the exact location.
Jayson got off the bike, lifted her by the waist, and placed her on the ground. Her forehead was creased and her lips were pursed in uneasiness. He hated seeing her that way and preferred her smiling and worry-free. Those days were buried somewhere in their past. He’d dig as deep as he needed to in order to find them again.
“You look troubled,” he said.
“It’s because I am.” Her attention shifted from the home, and she met his gaze.
He grasped her forearm and pulled her in closer. “All this will be straightened out soon. I have the signed paperwork. You have the information on Zeldano that will give your father second thoughts about his plans.”
Arianna sighed. “I fear that even this may not be enough.”
“Don’t worry. There are other ways to fix this, but my priority right now, is you. It always has been…and always will be.”
“Don’t say that.”
“Why do you continue to push me away, Arianna? Even after what we experienced together last night.”
