KATE
I was so tired that I ended up falling asleep on the way to his house.
"Are you very tired?" he asked when we entered his penthouse.
"Why?" I asked.
I knew exactly why he was asking. I turned around, and he was taking off his shirt. "You don't waste any time, do you? Not even a little tired?"
It must have been really hard to get tired with all those muscles in your body.
His expression turned serious, and his eyes grew dark. He closed the distance between our bodies with a few steps and wrapped his arm around my waist. I felt his erection pressing against my belly. He was ready, completely hard. Heat surged between my legs.
But we hadn't talked about my work trip yet. I needed him to agree, even if only symbolically because I would go regardless.
Before I could bring up the subject, he lifted me without taking his eyes off mine and led me to the piano, near the huge windows with th
KATEI woke up to Nathan playing with my hair. I groaned reluctantly. Why was he waking me up?"Kate...""I hope you have a good reason for waking me up on a Saturday," I grumbled."Yes, we're going for a run."No way."What time is it? You must be going crazy," I retorted, still with my eyes closed."It's almost six in the morning.""I can't believe you woke me up at five on a Saturday."I looked at his face. He was sitting next to me, wearing a dark blue tracksuit."Get up and take a hot shower.""You're crazy. It's December; it must be freezing outside.""Come on, baby, it's just a little exercise.""I go to the gym three times a week. Thanks, Mr. Ryan.""I know, and I love the results," he said, sliding his hand over my ass."I have a better idea. You can go back to bed.""If you'
KATEWe were back at his house. I took a long, hot shower and thanked him for not forcing a conversation, at least not yet. I put on one of his shirts and poured myself a glass of wine from his cellar. I sat in front of the huge windows that I loved, watching a light rain begin to fall. It was a beautiful Saturday. Maybe I should go home, read a book, or watch TV until I fall asleep.Was he working on a Saturday? What else could he be doing in that office?"Are you drinking wine this early in the morning?" he asked.He was standing by the wall next to the office door, shirtless. I looked away to avoid temptation."Is it forbidden?" I replied."Maryan will prepare our breakfast soon. I'm going to take a shower, but first, I want to talk.""I don't want to," I said.I dropped the glass on the floor."But we need to. You're upset," he insisted."There's nothing you can do about it. It's my problem
KATEI woke up around two o'clock, I was very tired lately, it must have been because of the stress of everything I was going through. Getting back together with Nathan, discovering about his past, saying "I love you" alone, his family, and the work trip I was going to take. It was a lot to handle.He didn't want to talk about the past, and we hadn't touched the subject of 'I love you' yet. Just thinking about it made me feel embarrassed. Why did I say that? My face frowned just remembering it.I loved him. I could admit it to myself now without feeling bad; it was even liberating. I just didn't need to have it come out of my mouth. Damn it. We had just gotten back together and I had already burdened him.Maybe he didn't love me. He said he was in love; maybe it was too soon to love me. That's all right, Kate. Forget about it, Kate.At least he agreed to my trip to Vancouver. But there was still this thing about the trip with his family. It w
KATE"Wow..." I said as the host led us to the private area in the rooftop-style restaurant with a nighttime view of Manhattan."Thank you," Nathan said to the man, dismissing him. I approached the balcony, feeling the cool breeze on my face. A reservation at this place must have cost a fortune."Do you like it?" He asked, pressing his body against my back.I closed my eyes, feeling his scent as he placed his hands on either side of my hips."The view is beautiful.""If I could stop thinking that you're not wearing anything under that dress, I think I would too," he whispered in my ear. "I wish I had a mirror in my shoe right now," he said, making me look down.I laughed when I understood."Pervert.""Come on. Let's sit down." He guided me to one of the sofas, and we both sat down."What are you in the mood to eat?" I asked, picking up a menu.He didn't answer, causing me to lift my face to look at him. His
KATEHe did it again. He used sex to distract me. We needed to talk. We have a lot to talk about. And why did I feel like he was hiding something from me? What could be so bad about his past that he didn't want to tell me?*More talk and less sex, Kate. *When I came back, he had left the couch and was sitting at the table, waiting for me. Giving me an orgasm wouldn't change the fact that he was keeping things from me. It would only make me forget momentarily. I sat down with a stern face."What happened to that smile?" he asked, raising an eyebrow."I know what you did. But you're smart enough to know that you're only delaying the inevitable.""No 'thank you'?""Do you really want to provoke me right now?""No. I want to fuck you."Hearing him say those words was enough to make my body react. Staring at him became almost impossible, forcing me to look at my fingers.
KATE"Nathan...""Did you hear?" He slowly circled his middle finger over my clitoris. "I love being the owner of this pussy..."Holy shit. He was going to make me come just with his words. I moaned his name in response."And I'm the only one who can do whatever I want with her." He slid two fingers inside, thrusting forcefully.My legs weakened, and he lifted me, spinning us around and pressing me against the wall. I screamed as he continued fucking me hard with his fingers before stopping. I opened my eyes.He removed his soaked fingers from me and brought them to his mouth, sucking. He groaned in approval with his eyes closed and an expression of agony."You drive me crazy. I need to taste you," he whispered, his eyes locked on mine.I nodded."Please.""Ah, baby... you don't need to beg," he said before lifting me in his arms. I wrapped my arms around his neck. I was already dizzy.I watched as he picked up the box and then carried me to his room.Placing me on the bed, he left th
KATE He returned to the room about ten minutes later. I took the opportunity to search for my phone, check my messages, and also send a threatening message to Lisa and Mary. I wouldn't let them know yet how wonderful the gift had been, in a way. "Ready?" He looked at me, standing in the doorway. "Yes." I left my phone on the nightstand and crawled to the edge of the bed. "Do you need help?" he asked. I wanted to wipe that smirk off his face. "Well, I think my legs still work. Thanks." "You think?" "Don't be so presumptuous." "I won't argue, Collins. It's just necessary to look at you," he said before entering the bathroom. "You know how to compliment a woman." I followed him. He turned off the water in the hot tub, which was already full. "What I did to you was much better than complimenting, don't you think?" "You managed to exhaust me enough to not want to argue, so you must be right." He got into the tub and then reached out to help me. The water felt divine. I wait
KATEI felt a tightness in my chest while watching his expression; whatever he was remembering seemed to hurt."You already know about my diagnosis. It was hell in the first few years. My family helped me as much as they could, and it worked to some extent. I learned to control my emotions, most of the time." He avoided looking directly into my eyes, gazing at some corner instead. "I searched for many ways to channel my anger. Sex ended up being one of them, as you already know. Being in control was addictive; it was all I thought I needed. I didn't want to go back to that hell. Not being able to control my emotions and actions. It haunted me and still does; I can't deny it. I'm sorry if I became a controlling asshole. But I need it, even now. The last time I lost control...""It's okay." I touched his face. "I understand.""No, Kate, you don't understand. It could have been worse. It could have been... fatal.""What? What are you talking about?""I hurt someone.""Who?""A submissive
