Freedom (Billionaire Secrets 2)

Water was sliding down her skin, but she didn’t care. She was warm and tingly all over. Tonight might have been a disaster, but it couldn’t end until she got into his bed.

“I’ve never seen your bedroom,” she said, her voice low and husky.

He took her hand and tugged, leading her into the one room in the entire building she hadn’t seen yet.

His huge bedroom was luxuriously furnished, with a navy-blue background, black leather furniture, and a chrome finish, but it wasn’t ostentatious.

Her eyes widened when they fell on the king-sized bed. Heart racing, she focused her attention on him, hoping she didn’t look as shy as part of her felt. This was the most private place in Simon’s life and he was letting her get a glimpse of it. Hell, he was about to do more than simply let her see it.

“We should get under the blankets, so you don’t get cold,” he said.

“Smooth,” she said. “That’s a very clever way to get a girl into bed.”

He gave her a lopsided grin. “Is it working?”

“Like a charm.”

Simon pulled the comforter back and motioned for her to get under the soft fabric.

Wordlessly, she got onto the bed, slid under the covers, and let out a satisfied sigh. This was like floating on a cloud. Pure heaven.

He climbed into bed beside her, then wrapped his strong arms around her. “We can go as fast or slow as you want,” he said against her ear. “We don’t even have to do anything. I’ll hold you all night long if that’s what you like.”

“I thought you were trying to get me into bed, Simon,” she said with a soft laugh.

“Oh, I am,” he said, eyes flashing with need. “But tonight, like every night we’ve spent together, is about you and what you want.”

That practically stole her breath away. She didn’t say anything as she reached behind her to unhook her bra and then quickly tugged off her panties. With the comforter covering her she didn’t feel nearly as self-conscious as she might have after so many weeks keeping him at arm’s length.

“I want you,” she said softly.

He leaned forward to press a kiss against her lips and a delightful heat inched across her skin. Simon broke the kiss to take off his boxer briefs and reach for a condom from the nightstand by the bed.

She watched him pull back the covers so that he could sheath himself. Suddenly, she was wet with an arousal so intense she practically ached for him to touch her. To do anything to her that would give her the release she craved. Licking her lips, she said, “I’ve wanted this for so long—”

“I’ve wanted you, too,” he murmured. “You’re all I’ve been able to think about. And now, all I want to do is make you feel good.”

Heather lay down on the bed, her head pressing down on the soft pillow underneath. Wantonly, she spread her legs. They had spent so long trying to avoid even a hint of impropriety and now they were about to destroy that. In this moment, she didn’t care. Didn’t care how much the outside world had judged them or wanted to keep them apart.

Whatever apprehensions she had about the state of her family, she swept them aside. She could follow the rules tomorrow.

Simon got between her legs and smiled down at her. Lifted his hand to brush a stray lock of hair out of her face. “You are the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.”

A flush of heat crept up her cheeks, and as she wrapped her arms around him to draw him nearer she returned his smile. He always knew how to make her feel beautiful and desirable. Simon saw her in a way she rarely saw herself, and that set her on fire.

She lifted her hips in invitation to him and he thrust into her wetness, hard and fast. Bliss took hold of her and she let out a breathy moan. How she had gone all this time without him pleasuring her like this, she’d never know. Never wanted to know, because now that she had him again she had no intention of ever going back.

Desperate to draw him deeper inside her, she wrapped her legs around his hips. He was filling her completely, reaching her in a way no one ever had before. More pleasure crashed through her, eliciting a cry that tore from her throat. She tightened around him, and he groaned in response.
