“Do you understand what you do to a man like me when you say that?” he growled.
“A man like you?” she rasped.
“I told you,” he said, voice rough, harsh. His hand shifted from her face and up into her hair, loosening the bun and gripping the strands. “I’m greedy. Selfish. And will take without conscience what you’re offering me.” He tugged on her hair, and pinpricks of pleasure danced across her scalp. She sank her teeth in her bottom lip to trap a moan. “What are you offering me, Kelly?” he asked.
“Me,” she breathed. “For tonight. All of me.”
As if those words snapped a fraying leash on his control, Dimitri swooped down and crushed his mouth to hers. Oh God. She hadn’t been prepared. Maybe she’d believed she was. But foolish, foolish her—she wasn't. One hand rose to his wrist, the s
“And I want to feel you cum for me, I want your muscles clenched around my cock, milking me, making me spill inside you.” Dimitri spoke slowly, his voice husky and calm at the same time. He was tempting her to surrender to him.Her hand had a mind of its own as it suddenly reached for him, finding his swollen shaft hidden behind the fabric of his pants. She felt how hard he was for her. Before she could enjoy the heat under her palm, he gripped her hand and pulled it away.“No touching.....at least not yet.”Her gaze darted to the side, toward the front of the car and his driver. “The divide is soundproof,” he assured her.Kelly looked into his eyes and was drawn into them, their depth, their beauty. She wanted nothing more than to kiss him, touch him, feel him inside her.“Kiss me.” She said.
“Somebody will see us,” Kelly whispered against his lips. He curled the ends of his mouth upwards. Her concern was unwarranted, but she couldn’t know that, and he wouldn’t tell her. She seemed like the kind of woman who liked the added risk of being discovered. And he wanted her just as horny as he was right now.“So what? I promise you, I won’t let anybody join in.” Dimitri said. Not that he had any objections to threesomes, but when it came to Kelly, he didn’t want to share her. This was just between the two of them. Private. Intimate.Dimitri reached for her beautiful round breasts, taking them into his hands, letting their weight be supported by his palms. As he squeezed lightly, he saw her lashes drop to half mast, partially hiding the desire in her eyes. Her gaze locked with his. Again he kneaded the soft flesh in his hands, and she reacted by pulling her lower lip between her teeth.
He shook his head, a wicked grin forming on his lips. Was he going to leave her frustrated? Was he playing with her? She’d kill him if he was.“I don’t want this to be over so soon. You taste too good.” he said.She breathed a sigh of relief when she read his desire not only in his words but also in his eyes. His mouth dropped back to her moist center, but this time he spread her legs wider and parted her folds with his fingers. His tongue a spear, he drove into her, and she welcomed him.His hot breath fired her center like the inside of a boiler. And then he added more fuel. Was he intent on this boiler exploding?She felt his finger invade her, and he withdrew his tongue to allow it to travel back to her neglected little nub. With determined strokes he coaxed it back to attention.Kelly had never been with a man who was this talented and thi
Of course he was tough! And mean! At least that was the way most people saw him. He wasn't sure he wanted her to know that she had such a great effect on him... He didn't know if that was a good idea. He let out a dark growl.“Yes, yes. You can growl all you want, big bad man.” Kelly added playfully.Mocking him, was she?“You want big and bad? I’ll give you big and bad.” he said, like she had challenged him.With a determined gait, Dimitri carried her into his bedroom and dropped her onto the bed. She propped herself up on her elbows and dragged her legs onto the bed slowly until the spiked heel of her shoe dug into the cream-colored silk duvet, and then she licked her lips at the delectable specimen standing before her.For a moment he just stood there, looking down at her. Then he touched his erection, stroking it suggestively.
Dimitri lost himself in the moment. Glorious sensations rippling over every muscle in his body as he continued moving in and out of her. There’d never been a place that felt like this. The perfect fit, the deep thrusts, the mind-boggling feeling that pulsed through him as he gritted his teeth and held on tightly to her.As if all she needed was his permission, she did as he commanded. She let go. And ecstasy whipped through her like lightning. Illuminating her, searing her, sending her flying.Above her, his hoarse shout dimly filled her ears, but she was already falling into the darkness, embracing it. Knowing in the morning, she would have only memories to hold on to instead of Dimitri Collins.When he could take a breath without feeling as if he were going to pass out, Dimitri kissed both her ankles and smiled at those sexy-as-hell heels she was still wearing. He was just about to ease her legs down
Kelly was counting down from one hundred when something moved beneath the sheet. It could have been her imagination since her mind was going at a rapid pace, but no, it wasn’t. His foot touched hers and she jumped.“Shh. It’s just me.” he said softly.Well, of course it was him, who else would be in bed with her?Kelly’s eyes were wide-open and staring into the darkness. And she didn't want him shhing her. She wasn’t a child and she didn’t like it.“I figured you weren't in the mood to cuddle, but I wanted to reassure you that you weren’t alone.” She heard him say. Did his voice sound richer, huskier in the dark?“I’m definitely not in the mood to cuddle.” She replied. It was an honest reply even if she didn’t exactly like how it sounded. “And I know I’m not alone.” Because
“I'm glad you want me too, Kelly. And you can have me. You can have anything, baby. Any damn thing you want.” He clenched his teeth as he slid deep into her with one long stroke. He was buried inside, and still, Dimitri felt the burning desire for more. He began stroking in and out, loving the feel of her heated moisture gliding seamlessly along his rigid dick. He closed his eyes and let the pleasure overtake him while one word echoed in his mind repeatedly: damn.In one night, Kelly Darcy might have completely damned him.----------------"Seriously, are we going to be going out together like this now?" Kelly asked Dimitri, "I thought we were supposed to be keeping this thing between us a secret"They were at a baseball game, and it was everything Kellyhad dreamed it would be. Dimitri had bought them nosebleed seats at a game the Cubs were about to lose. And even if she a little wo
“Sit down,” Kelly snapped, finally starting to lose her patience. She grabbed Dimitri’s arm, stopping him midgrowl as he began to climb over the back of his seat. “You, too. Before you get us all thrown out.” She said to him“Kelly…” he began.She kept her hand on his arm, her nails digging in tight, determined to handle this situation herself. Without violence.Though, she had to admit, a teeny, tiny part of her liked how protective Dimitri was, even if she usually had absolutely no use for such blatant displays of testosterone.“You. Sit. I mean it,” she ordered the intoxicated stranger, pointing to his seat.The man sat.“Now, I’m quite certain that somewhere in your beer-sodden brain, you believe I’m flattered by your eloquently worded… compliments.
"You are being ridiculous..."His mouth moved closer to hers. "Do you really think that? You think what we share is ridiculous?""What we share is just sex, Dimitri. That's what this entire relationship has been built on. And I'm not prepared to stay with you until you get bored with me""Bored?" he laughed In genuine amusement. "Bored? I would give much for the opportunity to become bored by your company, Kelly. You tell me exactly how you feel.... I doubt you will ever learn to filter what happens between your brain and your mouth and you you are reliably unpredictable. There are many words to describe our relationship, but boring is certainly not one of them."He released her then and turned and paced back across the room, a weary look on his face. "I'm sorry" he said quietly. "I have been wanting to talk to you but you wouldn't give me the opportunity to do so"&nbs
She felt the force of him deep inside her as he took her with barely contained violence and she moved her hips and clung to him as excitement surged through her body, caring for nothing except the need which grew and grew from deep within. He came into her hard and fast and Kelly welcomed the union with as much savage satisfaction as he took in it, a tumultuous fever of possession gripping both of them.He thrust deep and he did it again and again until her vision blurred and her entire body exploded in a shower of sensation so exquisitely perfect that for a moment she ceased to breath. She felt him shudder as he reached his own desperate climax and then there was only the slow descent back to normality. The unsteady breathing. The sudden intrusion of the outside world into their private space. The scattered bed spread....Dazed and disoriented, it was only as he gently moved to the side that Kelly realized that, although she was
Kelly didn't let him finish."I'm fine, Dimitri" she snapped. "I was just tired and I lost track of time... Like I said before. Don't act like you care"Dimitri sighed. "You are my wife, Kelly. You are carrying my baby... Of course I care""Well not really" She pulled a face and turned away from him to fix the bed sheets. Anything to stop herself from looking at him. He was spectacular, she thought weakly. Stunning. Gorgeous. Virile. Masculine. Ignoring the slow curl of heat low in her pelvis, she closed her eyes briefly and talked sense into herself. "You married the company. And I sort of came along too, which must have been pretty inconvenient for you you"With a harsh expletive that she didn't understand, he crossed the bedroom and pulled her away from bed. "Enough, Kelly" his voice was a low, throaty growl as he powered her gently against the wall and trapped her there with the
He dropped the shirt on the floor, his eyes still locked on hers. "Why deny yourself what you know you want? The chemistry between us is all that matters right now" he said.The sight of his bronzed muscular chest was almost enough to make her believe him. Almost, but not quite."Yes, well, it would make it very convenient for you if I believed that. You think that everything can be solved by sex, but it can't" she muttered, ignoring the banging of her heart and the buzz in her ears.She couldn't do this right now, she reminded herself as she dragged her gaze away from the fascinating sight of dark, masculine body hair that followed a trail down his body and disappeared temptingly beneath the waistband of his trousers. Neverland, she thought to herself. She should never have gone there.As he reached for the button on his trousers she felt her blood heat and knew that urgent action was necessar
It occurred to her that she had never seen him look anything less than suave and well groomed. But tonight he looked anything but. He was dressed in the same suit he had worn for his meeting, but the jacket and tie had long since been discarded and what had started life as a crisp white shirt was now crumpled and dirtied. She wondered what he had been doing and where he went to."When I came back and couldn't find you inside, I got worried" he frowned slightly, as if that confession was as much of a surprise to him as it was to her."Worried about your investment, you mean. But it wouldn't have mattered if I had had an accident, would it, Dimitri? You've gotten what you want. There's no need to pretend to care anymore"He sucked in a breath. "Whatever you may think, this is not about the company""Of course it is" Kelly retorted.He dragged a hand through his gl
And neither did she, she realized miserably. Even when her dignity and common sense told her to leave the room.... Leave him... A tiny, stupid part of her wanted to hurl herself into his arms and lie there safe and warm while he used his diplomatic skills to talk his way out of this vile situation and made it possible for her to forgive him."I want to go home, Dimitri" she said, hanging on to the last of her dignity. "I want to leave""This is your home. You are my wife. You are carrying my child and you are not going anywhere" he replied angrily.One glance at the rigid set of his hard, handsome features told her that argument was useless. He wanted her here for some reason. His baby maybe. And she didn't have to be a genius to know what the other reason was.The sparks in his eyes. The sexual awareness that even now pulsed between them, all gave her the answer to that quest
"But that's because you are the reason why my plans never work. You were always there... Always at the right time to ruin it. You did it the first time and I let it go because you apologized. Turns out you never meant it"His firm hold on her was the only thing preventing her ignominious descent on to the smooth floor and perhaps he realized that because she felt his grip tighten.The way the sunlight came through the window made Kelly’s hair look like it was on fire. Her hair was red normally, but in the sun, like this? It looked like somebody wove each strand from molten rock. Kelly lifted her hand and tucked some of the locks behind her ears to get them out of her way as she glared at him. Dimitri had to stop himself from thinking about tucking those locks of hair behind her ears for her. He was sure she would slap his hand away if he tried anything like that. She hated him right now, he knew that just by looking at her
Torn in two by the agony of his betrayal and the effort of holding on to her steadily collapsing emotind, she walked across the room and stared out the window. Then she trun, her voice little more than a whisper. "You bastard"Something flickered across his faceHe had the look of a man who knew he was under attack but so far hadn't managed to identify the enemy."Kelly...." he began, but she didn't let him finish."I thought you cared. I really thought you cared about me. And what sort of a fool does that make me? You lied to me"He rose to his feet in a fluid movement, his hands on the table. "I didn't lie. Kelly, We need to....""All those things we did together. All that time we spent together" she lifted a hand to her forehead and rubbed. "All those things you said to me. And you didn't mean any of them""That's
Not once did he speak of loving her, and Kelly could not bring herself to admit to the feelings had about him. She was the mother of his child. That was what their marriage was based on. And Dimitri certainly did his best to be a husband she could be happy with.And she was happy for the most part. When they returned home, she moved to Dimitri's place. Dimitri threw himself into work, coming home to her each evening with the air of a man well satisfied with jobs done. Sometimes he even worked from home so he could help her, especially when she was a little sick, he tired his best to be there for her.She couldn’t fault his commitment to their partnership. Things seemed to be going well, and Kelly hoped that it would continue to be that way. That even if he didn't love her, he understood her and wanted the best for her and her baby. But her hopes were short lived when she checked her email one afternoon.
