He looks so handsome lounging in that shirt and his slacks on that big, white bed; I want to tease him. I want to see him smile again and again and again. “Sure the entire wine cellar is enough to feed your M4 minions?” I frown.
I feel a couple butterflies when his lips curve, and he shakes his head, then he drags one hand over his dark hair.
“I’ve heard the M4 annuals are such an event. Do you already know who you’re going to go with?”
“Just a friend.”
“Oh. A bed friend?” I lift my brows tauntingly, and tease: “Someone you can teach how to use a bed?”
He looks at me.
And slowly arches his brows. “Do you really want to talk about this?”
His expression has gone from relaxed and flirtatious back to serious again.
Taken aback, I turn to my back and exhale. “I . . . no.”
Fuck.
Why did I ask that?
Saint says nothing for a long time.
Then: “Do you miss me?”
He rolls to his side and the fabric of his shirt is about to tear open under the flex of his muscles as he searches my face. He leans close to my ear, and says, “Do you think of me sometimes when you don’t want to . . . do you need me . . . do you still feel me?”
“I feel you everywhere.”
He curls his hand around my throat, leaves it there, hot and enormous, pinning me down on the bed with gentle firmness.
For minutes and minutes he stays there, with his forehead on my temple, his lips on my ear and his hand on my throat, owning me.
“I can’t breathe when you’re near, but I can’t live without you,” I pant, quietly, and he squeezes his eyes shut, drops his head on mine, and we say nothing else.
We lie here with his body leaning over mine, strong and hard, and me, panting in bed, weak and warm. We lie here as if we broke and there’s no more glue to put us together no matter how much I wish for it to . . . but we also can’t pull apart, as if something else entirely different from glue keeps us together.
It takes forever to fall asleep.
I should go home, but I don’t want to. I’m in hell but I don’t want to leave if he’s in hell with me. My awareness is so heightened that every sound awakens me, every shift beside me on the bed. Even the loss of warmth at the merest shift of a leg stirs me awake and urges me closer to the warm, hard wall beside me . . . but when I sleep, I lose all restraint.
I’m unzipping his pants and devouring him with kisses, dragging my mouth down his square abs, trailing my fingers across his chest muscles with a thirst that is unquenched. When I finally curl my hands around his hard length, I do so reverently. I stroke up and down his shaft as I lower my mouth and kiss him there, right where he’s most man. I make love to him with my mouth because I need to claim him. Feel him. Love him so that he loves me.
He lifts my chin. “Look at me.” The words have a bite, harsh with need.
My eyes lock with his and his are stormy green. He sees something he wants in my gaze because I sense he doesn’t want me to close my eyes. I blink and look back at him as I drag my tongue along his long, hard length. The crown of his cock is thick, swollen, pink, and as beautiful as the rest of his length. His sex is full for me, gushing for me. Between my legs, I’m gushing for him.
I murmur his name around his flesh.
“Malcolm.”
He tugs my face up close and slides his lips over mine in a tender kiss.
“Is this what you want, little one?” he asks, pulling me up so I feel him between my legs.
In a world where he can buy anything he wants, I’m his littlest thing. And he’s my biggest, grandest thing.
Full, lush lips feather over my cheek before pressing against mine. Soon he’s parted and tasted me, his tongue thrusting powerfully inside, seducing me.
He eases me back and parts my thighs, and I feel the gentle tug of his teeth on my clit. Every sensation coming to the surface. I feel my orgasm build, and I beg him, please Malcolm please—when I hear a door close, and I bolt awake.
I’m sweating in bed, soaked, shivering. I glance around, confused, when I recognize the hotel suite and hear the shower water start with a squeaky, angry jerk. I close my eyes tight and my stomach drops. Oh god. Malcolm heard me. He heard me say his name. He heard me lose my shit.
I put my face in my hands as I hear the slap of water and I know he’s showering. A cold shower?
I try to calm my breathing. Pretend nothing happened, right? I’ll pretend I never woke up and pretend I don’t remember my dream tomorrow.
No. I can’t. I can’t stay here, so close . . .
