2022-02-11 01:41:49Aaron eyed me over the top of his cards, and I brought my glass to my lips. We’d been at the table for an hour, but this was the first game I had played. If my daddy taught me anything, it’s that you don’t play poker ‘til you know a guy tells.
And I knew Mr. Stone was bluffing.
He studied me for a long moment before resting his elbows on the table and placing his cards facedown on it. “You’re bluffing.”
“Try me.” I licked my lips. “Unless you’re scared.”
The guys around the table watch us with amusement, and my fighting talk got an ‘oooh’ out of someone.
“Scared? Not of you, Bambi.”
I ignored the old pet name and tilted my head. “Show your hand.”
Slowly, he flipped the cards and spreaded them across the table in front of us. “Full house.”
“Ooooh,” came from the guys who all folded.
I shrugged a shoulder and sighed. “Dammit.”
George smirked.
“You should have listened.” I laid my cards out. “Four o

“It’s only dangerous if you don’t trust the person standing in front of you—if you don’t know their breaking point.” “What makes you think you know mine?” I smiled against his cheek. “Have you forgotten? I know your breaking point and your tipping point, and I know exactly how to get you there.” “It’s been seven years, as you keep reminding me. What if it’s changed?” “I’m very good at adapting.” I pulled back so a whisper of air hovered between our lips. “But it hasn’t changed a bit.” “She thinks she’s so smart.” Another smile tugged at my lips, and I whispered, “She knows if she drops her hand and brushes it against your groin, you’ll be hard and ready to take her in the first possible place.” “Is that right?” “Mhmm. A wall is the likely choice…” I placed my fingers against his belt,

I never, ever imagined I’d see George again. I still didn’t believe I had. I couldn’t believe he’s fucking with my twenty-four-year-old mind as easily as he stole my seventeen-year-old heart. And that, in essence, was everything this trip was. A mindfuck. I didn’t believe he wanted to get to know me at all. Hello, this was the twenty-first century—you use coffee for that shit. Not a six-week worldwide trip. No, the second the shock faded from his eyes, an age-old hunger took over. All George Stone wanted was what’s inside my very pretty pink lace thong. Well, mostly inside. He was playing the game well. He could get it any time he wanted. It was what he was paying for, essentially. Hell, the guy could tell me to get on my knees and wrap my lips around his cock and I’d be completely powerless to deny him it.

I brought my eyes to his in a silent defiance. He gripped my jaw a little tighter. “Do you understand that?” “Yes. I understand it.” I snatched my hands from his grip and knocked his fingers from my jaw. “I belong to you, like a pretty little possession.” “You belong to me, but nothing like my possession. As much as I’d love to possess you and your naked body, you’re your own person and I respect that. Until you push me. Push me and you’ll find out just how fucking possessive I can be.” “I think I have a pretty good idea.” He spun me into him, slid his fingers into my hair, and pulled my head back. “You have no idea just how thoroughly I could possess you, Bambi.” “Don’t call me Bambi.” Our lips were a whisper apart as he dipped his head to mine. “You’ve always been Bambi to me, and I’m not chang

I pulled back and looked him dead in the eye. “Don’t ever confuse a natural response to kissing with my being seduced. The last client that did that found himself without a regular fuck for six months.” “You’re so difficult,” he murmured. “I don’t remember you ever being this headstrong.” “I wasn’t.” I stepped from his hold. “But a lot of things can change in seven years. You ought to remember that.” **** ****** ****** ******* ****** ***** It was nine a.m. on a Monday fucking morning, and I was not in bed. There were so many things wrong with that, least of all the fact I was in the building that housed Stone Advertising’s offices, ready to sit by idly as my ‘boyfriend’ picks two new models. Yep. Casting call number one and I had no coffee. Even if I did have coffee, I’d need something stronger in it because acting like a coolly

“I have no idea what you’re talking about.”“Of course not.” He loosened his tie, letting it hang around his neck, and the now opened top button of his shirt revealing a hint of muscle on his chest. “I have to say, I found it very convenient how you just had to cough when Liv was very obviously bending in front of me.”“She was? I didn’t notice.”George placed his hands on the desk either side of me, and one of his thumbs brushed my thigh as he did so. “And I definitely have to say, it was a nice move with the leg cross. If there were anyone else in here who had seen that, there’d be some happy wives tonight.”I didn’t fight the twitch of my lips. “Again, I have no idea what you’re talking about.”He laughed once and leaned in, ghosting his lips along my jaw, barely touchi

Silence hovered between us for a moment, growing steadily more tense and awkward.“If I believed in romance, I’d be a puddle right now.” I took the last bite of my lunch and wadded up the wrapping.“You believed in romance once.”“Once.” I crossed the room and dropped the wrapper in the trash can. “That was before I realized love hurts. I gave love up the day I signed the contract with my agent. Love hurts, but pleasure doesn’t and neither does power. I had to choose, and I chose pleasure and power.”“There isn’t a part of you that believes in love? Really?”I glanced over my shoulder. “Do I believe it’s possible? That it’s real? Tangible? Yes. I believe everything you can tell me about love, but that doesn’t mean I have to believe in it. It doesn’

“I mean it.” I raised my eyes to his. “You’re playing with fire, George. People who do that get burned.” “I don’t play with fire, Gina. I stoke it and make it burn hotter and faster until it consumes everything in its path. I’ll never take a spark where I can have a roaring flame.” Heat flared across my lips as his mouth hovered above mine. “Playing would imply I’m not being serious. I’m always serious when I want something. And right now, I want you. I want you, and I want you to go out there and act like you fucking want me, can you do that for me?.” “Are you asking me or telling me to do that?” “I’m telling you you’re going to go out there and act like you want me until you actually do. Until you want nothing but me and my body. Over you, under you, inside you… Go out there with me and don’t leave until there isn’t a part of your body that isn’t crying out for mine,

I think I just heard the greatest love story of the twenty-first century. I also think I need to vomit. “You look tense.” George stepped behind me and placed his hands on my shoulders, his thumbs digging in at the bottom of my neck. I bent into his touch, unable to help the sigh that escaped me. “So would you if you’d had the night I have.” “Same again.” He nodded at the bartender and sat me on a stool. “Let me guess. You got the soap allergy story too?” I turned. A small smile played on my lips. “For real? He told you too?” “Oh yes. He wants us to do his marketing.” “No wonder his wife was so far up my ass she could see my brain,” I muttered. George laughed, a rich sound that curled my toes. “Gina,” he admonished. There was nothing to it. He was merely masking his amusement. “Behave.”

EpilogueFour Months Later“No, no, no!” I dropped my forehead to the table. “Why is this so hard for them to get right? Champagne and ivory are not the same color. The seat sashes are supposed to be champagne, not fucking ivory!”Brenda patted my shoulder. “There, there, Bridezilla. You have three months still to chew their asses out until they get it right.”“Brenda, with the amount George is paying them to get it right, I shouldn’t have to be chewing asses.” I sighed and straightened again. “This is crazy. Why can’t we just elope in some tropical country and get married without all this fancy crap?”My best friend laughed and shut the laptop down. “Okay, babe. Let’s get you a drink. You and I both know you wouldn’t want to have this any other way.”“I know. I just… I

I was not getting it out of him no matter how hard I tried. I knew he wouldn’t give anything away until he was good and ready, so I was stuck sitting here in my awkward limbo until he did. Stuck here, wondering, waiting, what-iffing.Our plates were cleared away and replaced with our main course. Again, it was eaten in silence, our eyes flitting from our plates to each other’s. The only difference was that there was a zinging of tension, one tight enough to cut, and I swallowed hard. My fork clattered as I placed it against my plate and looked at him firmly.“Do you want dessert?” he asked innocently, his steady voice betraying the tightness between us.“No. I want to know what this is.”“This? It’s dinner in the Eiffel Tower, sweetheart.”“No. What is it? Why are you doing it?”Geo

He prodded me in the side. “I think I found desires you weren’t aware of over the last few days.”Ah, this much wass true. Who knew having sex in front of a large bay window in the middle of the day was so fun?“I was very much aware of them. They’d just never been satisfied before now.”“They’ll continue to be satisfied, too.”“I should hope so.”He laughed quietly, burying his face into my neck. “Sit up. Let me wash your hair.”I did as he said, and he grabbed the showerhead from the little holder I placed it in for easy reach. When the water was the right temperature, I leaned my head back and let him wet my hair.“Ivan’s coming back to Seattle in a few weeks.”“He is?”“Hmm. He said he’ll call you to arra

“Again?”“Mhmm.”“Oh no.” I wrestled myself from him. “No, no, no!”I laughed, running through the apartment. And as I slammed the office door shut behind me, I realized my mistake.You never run from someone willing to stalk you until he can catch you.“Gina.” He hummed my name through the door. “Do I need to break the door down?”“That’s a habit for you.”“Open the fucking door. The longer you keep me waiting out here, the harder I’ll have to fuck you.”Oh, silly, silly man. When will he realized that, that was not a bad thing at all?I giggled and tapped out a random beat on the door. Truth was, I had no intention of letting George Stone fuck me right now.I planned to sit him on that fancy-ass leather chair an

“We are?” “Yes. You’re wearing my shirt again, and I believe it was some six hours ago I was promising to fuck you on my desk, so I suggest you get your ass into my office and hop up onto that desk pronto.” “You’re getting more demanding by the day, Mr. Stone.” I added some extra wiggle to my hips as I walked, and I was rewarded by a low growl of pleasure behind me. And punished with a sharp smack on my ass. “I never said anything about a demand. I’m requiring you get on my damn desk. Now move.” *** “Thank you.” George took a large envelope from someone and closed the door behind him. I watched from my slouched position on the sofa as he pulled a letter opener from the kitchen drawer and sliced the letter open. Because who doesn’t keep one of those in their kitchen?

It was ten in the morning and George still wasn’t up.That alone told me how much yesterday tired him. He was incapable of sleeping past six. Crazy man.I rocked my head from side to side. If I had any idea exactly what he was doing last night, I’d go into his office and finish it. As it was, I had no idea, so all I can was sit there like a freaking orange waiting to be juiced.I couldn’t read because my concentration wouldn’t last beyond a page. I had done my Candy Crush and Coin Dozer thing, and if I saw one more whining status post on Facebook, I’ll do one of my own.The sound of a phone ringing in his office cut through the silence, and I paused. Oh hell.I jumped down and ran into the room, barely blinking at the name on screen before answering. “Hello?”“Hello? Gi

I sat up, brushing hair from my face, and listened for any indication of him being around. There wasn’t any, so I swung my legs over the edge of the bed and made my way out of the room. The city lights flooded the front room, and I glanced at the clock. Three a.m. Where could he possibly be at this time? Something creaked in the direction of his office, and I walked down the hall to it. His door was cracked open slightly, and a gentle light from the television was flickering through the tiny gap. I wrapped my fingers around the edge of the door and eased it open, my eyes landing on his exhausted, shirtless figure. He was slumping over his desk, his fingers buried in his hair. His laptop was open in front of him, papers were scattered everywhere, some lying idly on the floor, and a desk light was illuminating the mess. “You should be in bed, asleep,” he mutte

“George!”“What does it say?” I looked at her. She bit her lip. “Rachel. Tell me now!”“She said that if you don’t pay within the hour, she’ll have it distributed to a large number of websites and presses ready to run a breaking news story first thing tomorrow. They’re waiting for her story.”“Will she fuck.” There was no wavering in his voice. Despite his lack of jacket and tie, George looked as serious as ever. “Rachel, get me her on the phone ten minutes ago.” He turned. “Alexander, get something drawn up that prevents her from contacting either Gina or me for the next fucking lifetime. This ends right now.”“George, you can’t pay her!” I wrenched myself from his mom’s grip. “Don’t be so fucking stupid!”He br

“I’m sorry,” I whispered, looking at my feet. Guilt and remorse—they flooded me. Consumed me.George pulled me into him and tilted my face back. “Look at me, Gina.”I shook my head. I couldn’t. Not this time. I couldn’t look in his eyes and know that everything we have was on the line. Everything he and his father have worked for was now hanging in limbo because of me.How many reporters have picked that up? How many stories will I see tomorrow? How many news alerts will pop up on my cell?“Gina.” His voice was hard. No-nonsense. “Look at me. Now.”My eyes disobeyed me. They raked up his body until they found a sea of bright blue.“We will figure this out. Do you understand me? It’s unexpected and sudden, but we will fix this.”Tears born of a real fea
