That didn’t stop Simon. He turned his attention to her other breast, taking the other nipple into his mouth, his tongue licking at her flesh. He groaned loudly, as if he enjoyed pleasuring her as much as she enjoyed being pleasured.
She was already so wet with desire. Right now she ached for more intimate contact.
But he seemed to like tormenting her, as he started to trail kisses down her breast until he kissed across the skin of her stomach and stopped at the waistband of her skirt.
“Take it off,” she instructed, keeping her gaze on him. “Now.”
His lips curved up into a wicked grin. “It’s not like you to be impatient.”
And it wasn’t like him to reveal so much of himself. Simon kept his desires to himself. To the point where she wasn’t even sure if he had them. Yet now, she could see that underneath his cool steely exterior, the same passion that burned inside her burned in him, too.
“I’m impatient to find out what you’re going to do to me,” she said, her voice a soft purr.
That seemed to drive him over the edge as he suddenly reached for her skirt, tugged it off, and tossed it aside. Then he grabbed at her lace panties and dragged the flimsy fabric off, leaving her in nothing but her heels and stockings.
He planted a kiss on her thigh, right where her stocking ended and her exposed flesh began.
“I want you to keep these on.” His voice was a rough command, husky with lust. The sound of it awakened her senses. Made her want to do anything with him. Her heart was racing so fast she was sure he could hear it.
Somehow through the haze of her own desire, a sudden thought occurred to her. “Do you have protection?”
“The hotel leaves condoms for guests,” he replied, pulling away from her.
Within seconds he was ripping his clothes away, standing naked before her.
When she got a glimpse of his erection, her face went hot. The old familiar shyness came rushing back and she almost looked away. But his body was so exquisite that she couldn’t avert her gaze.
His chest was solid, the muscles rippling with power. Simon might have spent his time working in an office, but it was obvious that he worked out. And often, from the look of his toned abs.
She bit her lip, suppressing a moan.
“You don’t have to hide your reaction from me,” he said. “That’s the condition if we’re going to keep going. You can’t hold back.”
“I won’t if you won’t,” she gasped out.
A sly smile was her reward. He reached for the nightstand by the bed and returned to her side, a condom in hand. Tearing the wrapper with his teeth, he put on the condom.
“Spread your legs for me, Heather.”
I’m done. The way he commanded her made her wet all over again. There was something so dangerous about doing as her demanding boss instructed. So dangerous. And so wrong that it felt so very right.
Wantonly, she bent her knees and spread her legs for him.
Lust blazed in his eyes as he stared down at her exposed flesh. With a groan, he positioned himself between her legs, wielding his massive erection in his hand. “Do you want me?”
She nodded, anticipation making her heart beat even faster.
“I need to hear you say it,” he growled.
“I want you,” she said firmly. “I want you inside me.”
His eyes widened, clearly surprised again by her directness. It was so unlike her, but Simon’s obvious desire for her made her bold. Brave enough to ask for her own pleasure.
Without a word, his free hand suddenly reached for her hair. Reached for the pins holding up her bun, and he slowly started to remove them. One by one, he tossed the pins aside and unfurled her auburn hair. Let it fall across her shoulders.
He gazed into her eyes again, and what she saw nearly took her breath away. No man had ever looked at her like this. With a mixture of blatant desire and complete tenderness. The two sides of Simon were warring with each other again. A thrill went through her as she wondered which one would win.
Simon was running one hand lovingly through her hair, while he held on to his manhood with the other. One gesture tender. The other, the gesture of a man who had seduced her so quickly she was ready to throw her career away for one chance to be under him.
