that bound them. Goosebumps spread with every
breath I took. My core clenched when he stepped closer. I was
already so wet, so ready that I was surprised I didn't slip right
off the bench.
He tugged his tie loose, eyes drinking me in
nice and slow. “The bench is lovely, Leila.” I closed my eyes as
his fingers sifted through my curls. “You’re lovely.”
I knew he thought I was beautiful. Found my
curls and curves sexy. He could barely keep his hands off me in the
morning when my hair was sticking out all over the place and I wore
the ratty t-shirt that hugged me in ways that used to make me feel
self-conscious. But lovely meant something else tonight. I saw it
shining in his eyes as his fingers drifted to my cheek and he
traced my jawline, hitting the edge but repeating it like he
couldn’t bear to stop touching me. Lovely had nothing to do with
what was on the outside. He saw what was beneath. He saw me.
He raised my chin and took my lips in his,
his tongue melting against mine. The ache between my legs grew and
he paused, smiling against my lips. He could read my body like an
open book.
“I want to see you.” His voice deepened, the
timbre making my core clench with recognition. His bedroom voice.
Low. Sensual. “All of you.”
I went to yank the straps down, caution and
decorum fading as I let my lust take the wheel.
Jacob’s hand covered mine, stopping me.
“Slowly.” His tone had hints of amusement as he released me and
stood back. “We have plenty of time and plenty to do, Leila. Take
it easy.”
I felt a flash of rebellion at his flagrant
disregard at my attempt to show how badly I wanted him. Take it
easy? With him standing there, watching me strip with that heat in
his eyes? My own darted to his crotch and it did nothing but make
me more impatient. His erection made the throb turn into an
overpowering ache. I could make out every thickened inch, wrapping
around his thigh, piercing the tailored seams.
I looked up from the yummy bulge, hoping a
stern look from him would calm me down, but there was no such luck.
The cool mask of my dominant was cracked. His lips were parted,
trembling ever so slightly. Blue eyes watched me intently, like he
was daring me to mouth off. Hoping for it.
I didn’t disappoint.
I hitched a breath, feigning shock as I
yanked the strap down, heart thumping when I heard the static sound
as the material ripped and my breast sprung free. I glared at him
disobediently, taking in the hard set of his jaw before I pointedly
dropped my eyes to his erection.
I bit my lips. “Oops.”
I'd been so sure directly disobeying him
would have provoked him. He would come closer, knot his fingers in
my hair and order me to flip over so he could show me what happened
when I forgot my place. It's what had me watching every line of his
face, practically chanting silently for them to tighten. Looking
into the eyes that pierced, waiting for them to blaze. But he just
stood there, face blank. No, not blank--unimpressed. Bored.
And I'd just ripped my brand new chemise.
He was definitely playing hard to get.
Usually my punishment was immediate. I'd already be pressed into
the cushion. Strapping me down would be irrelevant because I
wouldn't be going anywhere. My whole body would be taut, heart
beating in my ears as I waited for the whistle as his hand cut
through the air and collided with my ass.
But right now, I was still upright. Butt in
the wrong direction. Not breathing through the strikes as pain met
molten pleasure. Right now all I felt was frustration.
I had no need of stony faced Jacob, watching
me intently when it was clear I was in need of some hard loving.
Maybe it wasn't clear...so I jerked the other side down, the
material slinking to my waist. Both breasts exposed, chest heaving
as I glared at him defiantly.
Spank me. Punish me. Just take me. "What are you waiting for?"
His cool eyes dropped to his cuff and he
slowly rolled up his sleeves. "This little display was endearing
