Control: XXX Vadim Book 1 (Club XXX 4)

by Lana Sky

  And I nearly fall down the rest of the stairs.

  The girl—so small she can be only six or seven at most—looks like a living doll she’s so beautiful. Curling black hair frames a face set with delicate features. Familiar features.

  That nose. That chin. That surly, brooding frown. I can’t even believe it at first—but as I blink, I realize my eyes aren’t lying. The only difference between her and the man standing a few paces away are her eyes, a bright, vibrant blue.

  But there is no mistaking the obvious. Genetics are a strange animal—two people couldn’t just strike the same biological jackpot by chance.

  This little girl is his. She has to be…

  His daughter.

  And I realize—just like I did the night he used me to taunt his brother—that once again, I’ve been a pawn in his game. A fool. Because any relationship he claimed to want with me was based on nothing more than a twisted lie.

  Excerpt from Vadim: Corrupt Book 2

  He cocks his head back and leans into his chair. I sense that he’s waiting for something—like a dog trainer waiting for the naughty mutt to remember one command or the other.

  “You fucking bastard!” I strain at my binds, hissing in exasperation. “Let. Me. Go!”

  Something unreadable flashes through his dark eyes and I stiffen, falling silent. A subtle softening of his jaw is my reward, and I watch, riveted as he lifts one of his hands and lowers it to his fly.

  With envious dexterity, he has it open in seconds, palming his cock. Holy crap. He moves slowly in firm, deliberate strokes that have him hardening in a shocking display that leaves me gaping.

  “W-What are you doing?” I try to sound angry, but awe laces my tone instead. Shit. Shit. Shit. I want to seethe, and rage, and scream.

  But he is impressive even from this angle. His piercing stands erect, swallowed by the swelling flesh until the rounded ends of the barbell are all that remain visible.

  Well aware of my drifting attention, his eyes ruthlessly seek mine out as he manipulates his straining cock. Stroke after stroke leaves him pulsating, but his expression remains unchanged. Unreadable. Cold. Undeniably sexy…

  No. “S-Stop!” I shake my head and struggle against my binds, making the metal clang. “What the hell are you doing?”

  He does stop, his hand stilling, his gaze unmoving. For seconds. Longer. Unbearably long. I squirm, my lips parting for another demand.

  The second they do, he starts to stroke himself again, rendering me silent. As my lips close, he strokes faster. Again. Soon, his entire body is rocking with the motion, his cock straining in his grasp. Beautiful doesn’t even begin to describe the sight. Any words die in my throat as his hand moves even faster. Surer. The longer he pleasures himself, the more I lose my train of thought.

  Men like him don’t exhibit themselves lightly. It’s an intentional display, I suspect. Meant for me alone. To tease me. Shatter me. Chastise…

  And it’s cruel, unusual punishment. I’m senseless, lost in the whirlpool of conflicting emotions. Shame. Rage. Need. Musings of anger quickly turn to imagining how he would taste, let alone feel if I tried to take him from this angle. As if reading my mind, he stands, letting his pants fall down to his ankles, baring himself completely. Slowly, he advances, his hand still moving, muscles straining beneath his skin.

  I don’t even realize that my mouth is already open until he cups my chin, tilting it so that I’m forced to look up at him. His thumb traces my lower lip as he bucks his hips. And I don’t hesitate.

  A groan rips through me as his taste explodes over my tongue and I eagerly lap at the crown. My eyes roll and I forget all about hating him. Fellating him on the bed was one thing. But this…

  It’s so different.

  The angle forces him deeper and I have to tilt my throat to better accept his length. Bound and immobile, all I can do is take whatever he’s willing to give. Just the tip at first. Then the full crown. More. More.

  More.

  I gasp in exasperation as he pulls away, but then our eyes meet. As if in warning, he caresses my cheek before guiding himself in, in, in.

  My eyelids flutter as I struggle to handle this much. He’s throbbing against my tongue, so thick I can barely close my lips around him.

  And it’s utter perfection.

  I hum in contentment as he rocks his hips, feeding me more precious bit by precious bit. My wrists strain against the manacles as pressure builds between my legs, seeming to center right over my piercing. I start to whimper as he cradles my cheek while easing more into my mouth, barely teasing the back of my throat.

  Then he withdraws again, leaving me gasping.

  Before I can even protest, his fingers work to part my hair as he encircles my position. His other hand finds my waist and toys with the waistband of my thong. I shiver. The slightest pressure teases the piercing and sets off a tidal wave of friction unlike anything I’ve ever felt. Unprepared, I writhe, torn between clamping my knees against the heat or opening myself up to him further.

  “How did I know this method would reach you when words don’t?” He sounds so damn smug. I hiss, only to trail off as he teases me again with another gentle swipe. Another and I moan in hapless surrender.

  “You wore this to tease…” His voice is a guttural shadow of his usual neutral cadence. Still calm, but nowhere near as disarming. Lust lurks in the vicious tone, heightening the heat building in my blood. “Didn’t you?”

  I shake my head, gritting my teeth against a reply as I struggle to remember my anger. “Go to hell—”

  I gasp as his finger slips between my legs, teasing the moisture gathered there. “It’s working,” he grates. “Consider this me teased to the point of madness…”
