“Come here. We didn’t do much talking last night. We have rules to discuss.”
Rules. I rolled my eyes.
He was right. We hadn’t talked last night, not really. Walking to my side of the bed, I climbed in. With my robe still on, I mirrored Nox’s stance, pulling the covers over my waist and sitting against the headboard.
He reached for my hand and tugged. “ Here , princess, means next to me, not three feet away on the other side of the bed.”
I scooted a little closer. “Nox—Mr. Demetri,” I corrected. “I don’t know what you want from me, but I think you should know, I don’t follow directions well.” Especially when they’re delivered by assholes. I didn’t say that last part.
He moved closer, removed the pillow from behind my head and laid me back. With his handsome face hovering above mine, he smoothed my unruly curls over the pillow. In the darkness, I saw the hint of a grin pulling at the corners of his lips, and my heart leapt with the hope of Nox, the man I’d known in Del Mar.
“I’m rather perceptive. I’ve noticed your flaws.” As if opening a present, Nox untied the sash from around my waist and exposed my nude body. The intensity of his gaze electrified my skin, peppering it with goose bumps and turning my nipples to pebbles. He sucked on his finger and then traced a circle over my areola. The glint came back to his pale eyes. “I’ve also noticed your assets.”
My back arched as his voice rumbled through me, awakening my tender core. No longer concerned about the punishment he’d delivered the night before, I felt my insides clench with the promise of more.
A moan echoed from my throat as he lowered his lips to one of my nipples. Sucking, he skillfully circled it with his tongue. His warm mouth pulled away leaving it slick, and then he blew, the contrast was almost painful.
“We’re going to discuss my rules. First, forget the Mr. Demetri . My name is Lennox or Nox in private.”
His torment of my neck, breasts, and tummy punctuated each statement. The stubble of his cheeks scratched while his teeth tantalized my taut skin.
“I want to hear that you’re listening,” he said. “Say ‘ Yes, Nox .’”
My voice came in breaths. “After last night, I was expecting Yes, sir or maybe Yes, master ?”
He bit my nipple, sending shockwaves directly to my core.
“Keep baiting me, princess.”
That was another direct order I planned to ignore.
“Yes, Nox. My name is Alexandria, but I prefer Alex.”
His lips moved lower. If he was trying to distract me, he was doing a good job.
“Where did Charli come from?”
“My middle name is Charles, after my grandfather.”
He nodded, delivering more abuse with his coarse stubble. “That’s good. I was concerned it was an outright lie. As I mentioned when we first met, truthfulness isn’t debatable. We both know what will happen if you lie to me.”
Shit! His fingers joined the battle for my attentions. My legs willingly parted as I tried to concentrate on my answers.
“Oh! Y-Yes, Nox. I didn’t lie. It’s a nickname.”
“Tell me about Columbia.”
I didn’t want to talk about anything. My hips moved as his hands and lips moved in tandem, their rhythm monopolizing my thoughts.
“Columbia, Charli.” His reminder refocused my mind, though my body was lost to his ministrations.
“I-I start in less than two weeks.”
“What if I told you no?”
The euphoria he’d created evaporated. My body stiffened as I pulled away from his touch. “Y-You can’t.” My volume rose. “No. It was in my profile, my hard limits.” Panic washed over me. He was like Alton. “Karen said—”
“Stop,” Nox said, touching a finger to my lips. “Suck.”
Without thinking, my lips parted, allowing his finger access, covering my tongue with the taste of my own essence. His erection throbbed against my hip.
“I told you, your limits are now mine to define; however, I’m not saying no,” he whispered, his tone softening
