Seduce (Beautiful Rose 0.50)

“Shall we get going?” I asked her, standing up to steady her. She giggled and nodded, letting me slip her top back over her head. That had gone perfectly. With any luck, it would be all over tomorrows back pages and Delenski would have a fit.

Lisbeth had insisted on me walking her back to her room, and then she had insisted on me coming in for a nightcap. I agreed, only because she could barely manage a step without tripping. We took the lift up to her room. I could barely control her as she tried to kiss me. I managed to fend her off until we reached her room. I went to leave, but she insisted I stay until she was safely in bed.

I waited while she changed, facing the other way like the gentlemen I was.

“Jack!” she giggled. I turned around. She had removed the top, and for some reason thought it was smart to remove the skirt over her head. “I’m stuck,” she giggled. I walked toward her, ignoring the fact that she was completely naked in front of me, apart from the skirt that covered her face. My eyes ran over her full breasts, with nipples so hard I was sure they’d prick me if I touched them. The curve of her hips framed her beautifully bare pussy, and her long, lean limbs were just begging to wrap themselves around me. My cock hardened as I freed her from the offending skirt. She smiled

at me, her face flushed and her eyes bright with excitement.

“Thank you, Jack,” she said, moving her arms around my neck. She leaned in, her hand on the back of my head, her lips pressing against mine. I moved my hand over her breast, squeezing it hard. She cried out, then laughed, pushing me back on the bed.

“That was nasty, Jack,” she said, unzipping my pants. I groaned as she reached inside to free my hard cock. For the briefest moment I let the feeling of her hands on my cock engulf me. It had happened so quickly that it took me a second to realize what was about to happen—the line I was about to cross.

No, I realized as she opened her mouth to take me. I can’t do this. I won’t do this.

I pushed Lisbeth off me and pulled up my pants. She fell to the floor in a heap, her glazed eyes not capable of deciphering what had just happened.

“Jack?” she asked, confused.

“Sorry, Lisbeth, I can’t do this.” I grabbed my things and left. “I love my girlfriend too much to fuck her over.”

Pick up, dammit. I cursed, smashing my hand against the wall. Mr. Jefferies glanced at me and ran out of the room.

Smart move, cat. I’m a bad guy to be around. All I will do is drag you down.

“Hello?”

“Alex,” I said, sighing with relief.

“Jack? Are you okay?” Alex asked, concerned. “Have you been drinking?” I slumped onto the sofa, the phone spilling from my hands. I retrieved it to hear Alex yelling my name.

“Sorry, I dropped the phone. It’s all fucked. I fucked everything.” I growled, pissed off at myself for letting things get so out of hand.

“Jack, calm down. Please calm down. Talk to me, what’s going on?” he spoke softly, like he was trying to slow down my thinking. I sighed and took a breath.

“Belle. I almost cheated on her. Dad had me taking out the daughter of someone he’s trying to close a deal with. He didn’t want a scandal so I got her really drunk so she’d flash her breasts at the cameras,” I mumbled.

Alex snorted. “Well I hope that makes the back pages. Fuck Dad, Jack. He’s an asshole and nothing you do will ever be good enough for him.”

“It gets worse. I don’t give a shit about Dad. I’m over that. All I care about is Belle.”

“What happened?”

“I got too drunk and ended up back at Lisbeth’s hotel room. She had her hands on my cock before I stopped it.”

“You stopped it?” Alex asked, surprised.

“Yeah, but it doesn’t matter. She will never forgive me. I will never forgive myself,” I muttered.

“Jack, a couple of months ago you would never have stopped. You’d have slept with her without a second thought. Now, your feelings for Belle stopped you before you did something really stupid. That’s a huge thing,” Alex pointed out.

“Sure, tell that to my girlfriend,” I muttered. I knew what he was trying to say, but it didn’t matter. It was useless. I’d lost her. I was sure of it. “Look, I gotta go,” I sighed.

“Jack, don’t do anything stupid, okay?”
