Dominance Submission BDSM Erotica Burning for Him
Page 6
As she went back into the kitchen for a second bottle of wine, she caught sight of the locket sitting on the counter. Picking it up, she ran her thumb across it as bittersweet memories of Khan played through her mind. His words came back to her. “Life as you know it would end.”
I have nothing to lose. If I have to choose between a rock and a hard place, I choose Khan.
A quiet sob catching in her throat, Selena threw open the locket. Let hell come for her. It couldn’t be any worse than being swindled out of her life’s savings and Jason framing her for embezzlement. Khan had been the only bright spot in her existence and now he was gone. She was ready for life as she knew it to end.
Sniffling, she watched the locket for a long moment. When nothing happened, she consoled herself with the idea that maybe it needed more time. Surely a curse eons-old needed longer than the average cook time of microwave popcorn to unravel. Taking long swigs directly from the wine bottle, she stared at the locket and willed it to do something.
When nothing had happened by the time she finished the wine, she staggered to her bed. Flopping face down on her mattress, Selena cried herself to sleep.
Her dreams were twisted and dark. She relived scenes of her time with Khan and the rich sensory memory of his hot touch scorched her mind. Then her mind flashed to her boss, his face bloated in his customary leer as his equally bloated fingers roamed her body. Selena whimpered in her sleep and turned her face away.
“Wake,” said a commanding female voice.
Selena startled and her eyes flew open. A tall figure loomed at the foot of her bed. Selena sat up with a high-pitched yelp, clutching the covers to her chest. With one trembling hand, she reached over to the bedside table and switched on the lamp.
The figure pushed away the black hood obscuring her face and revealed a beautiful woman with alabaster skin, rosebud lips, wide blue eyes and auburn hair. For all her beauty, however, her expression was haughty and pinched.
Selena’s stomach sank. “Where’s Khan?” She knew this woman’s appearance was connected to him. It had to be.
The woman ignored her question.“You opened the locket.”
“Who are you?”
“You’re not important enough for me to explain.” She waved her hand dismissively. “Suffice it to say that I am she who cursed Khan.”
“Why?”
“Because he displeased me.”
Selena couldn’t hold back a harsh laugh. “Then you don’t know Khan.”
The woman arched an eyebrow. “And you do?”
Selena snorted. “His abilities to please are...enormous.”
“So you say. You only knew him three days.”
Something snapped in Selena at the woman’s derisive tone. “You want someone to punish? How about someone who deserves it?”
Interest gleamed in the woman’s eyes. “You have a name in mind?”
Selena crossed her arms. “Yeah, my boss. He’s a pig and if he can’t have me, he’s going to lock me up much the same way you did to Khan. You think three days isn’t enough time to know the character of a man?”
The woman nodded.
“My boss grabbed me the first day on the job. Took me less than two hours to figure out his true colors. Three days is more than enough time to know that I would vouch for Khan.”
The woman gave another nod, this one slow as she considered everything Selena had said and then...she disappeared.
Selena blinked. “Hello?” But she was alone now. The woman was gone. She threw off the covers and went to where the woman had stood. Nothing. No heat, no cold, no sign of anything than perhaps the fact that maybe she shouldn’t drink so much.
With a sigh, she checked the front and back door, making sure they were locked. Passing through the kitchen, she paused to scoop up the locket off the counter. Her heart heavy, she tucked it under her pillow. It’s as close as I’m going to get to Khan.
***
The next morning she wore her best suit and went to work standing tall with her shoulders back. She’d done nothing wrong and even if she couldn’t prove it, the least she could do was hide her fear and hope that one of the many attorneys she’d left a voice mail for returned her call.
Still, she jumped at every little sound anyway, expecting at any second to be either arrested or accosted by Jason or both. She slid into her office and logged into her computer. Her coworkers seemed unaware of her stress and greeted her as usual. One of them asked her to come to a meeting on a new database design project. Instead of reassuring her, the normalcy made her even more nervous. Sweat prickled along her spine and she kept having to take deep slow breaths in an attempt to calm her racing heart.
When her computer dinged, announcing an incoming email, she about jumped out of her seat. It was from a woman she didn’t know, but judging from the subject line she assumed it was from one of the executive assistants. It also made her light headed.
In the CEO’s office, NOW. Top floor. Do not make him wait.
With shaking fingers she pushed herself out of her chair. Oh God, This is it. The moment of truth. On wobbly knees she walked out of her department, down the hallway certain that everyone who saw her go knew. They’re going to walk me out in handcuffs.
Selena considered running, but knew it wasn’t the answer. Besides, what did she have to run to? Nothing, that’s what. Her life was an empty void. I don’t have anything to fight for anymore. Sniffing back tears, she entered an elevator and ascended to the executive floor. Maybe prison will be an improvement. It didn’t hurt Martha Stewart, right?
“Selena?” asked the receptionist when she arrived at the swank lobby outside the CEO’s office “He’s waiting for you. Go right in.” The woman, a mature grandmotherly type, waved her back with a kind smile.
Selena gulped and stared at the door leading to the CEO’s inner sanctum. Would there be police in there? What about Jason? Her stomach roiled. I’m going to be sick.
Heart beat pounding in her ears, she put her hand on the door knob which was cool against her sweaty palm. Swallowing hard, she twisted it and pushed it open.
I can do this. I didn’t do anything wrong. The truth will come out. It’s my only hope.
She stepped inside, eyes roving the spacious office taking in the complete absence of either her smarmy boss or the police. A lone man sat behind a glass and chrome desk, head bent, eyes focused on the papers in front of him. Selena gently shut the door behind her and stood in silence for a moment, her hands clasped behind her.
Slowly the CEO lifted his head and a familiar piercing gaze glittering like tiger’s eye zeroed in on her.
“Khan.” Her voice was a gasp and her knees went out from under her, forcing her to sink to the floor.
“Take off your clothes.” His voice was cool, but a smile twitched on his lips.
“What? Here? Now?” Selena’s mind spun with a million questions. Wasn’t Jason supposed to be the CEO? Why was Khan here?
“You can lock the door first.”
Her eyes wide, she turned and pushed down the button on the doorknob.
“Now, take off your clothes.”
She hesitated, her mind racing unable to comprehend what had just happened. Her demon lover was here in the flesh and CEO of her employer. It boggled her mind to the point of stupefaction. “I don’t understand,” she said.
Khan beckoned her with one finger. “I would much rather reward you than punish you, but if you won’t follow my commands you’ll leave me no choice. Obedience will answer all your questions, pet.”
Selena recognized the warning tone in his voice. He was serious. This was real. Her hands shaking, she took off her jacket followed by her skirt, draping them both over the chair. She fumbled with the buttons of her blouse, unable to coordinate her nerves and muscles.
“Come here.” He waved her forward and she stumbled over to stand in front of him, her eyes never leaving his face, drinking in the sight of him.
He reached up and undid the buttons of
her top. “You’re shaking like a leaf.” Pulling her blouse off, he spun her around as if she were a poseable doll and unhooked her bra. Taking that off, he then slid her panties down to her ankles, holding her hand as she stepped out of them.
“Is it really you?” She looked at him with wide eyes.
He nodded. “It’s really me.”
“How?” She reached to touch him, pressing her palm flat against his chest. He’d lost his demon heat, but felt solid and real otherwise.
“You opened the locket.”
“Yes, but nothing happened.” She scanned the room, her expression frantic as sudden fear welled up in her. “Where’s Jason?”
Khan pulled her into his lap, folding her into his embrace. “Shh. He’s gone.” His thumb caressed her shoulder in a lazy circle and he kissed her cheek gently.
“And now you’re CEO? How did that happen?”
He shrugged. “Magic.”
She laughed, the sound bordering on hysteria. “You saved me.”
“No, you saved me.” He put a finger to her chin and forced her to look at him.
Pushing her off his lap, he stood and unbuckled his pants, letting them drop to the floor. He wore no underwear and his cock rose long and hard in front of him. Selena’s stomach contracted at the sight of him. He had the same caramel skin and the rippling strength that had made her feel safe. She flushed remembering how easily he’d picked her up before.
She sank to her knees once again, this time not from shock, but awe that this beautiful man was back in her life.
He stood before her. “You are mine, Selena.”
She nodded, eyes fixed on his hardness, which was mere inches from her face. She wanted to open her mouth and take him in, but held back awaiting his command.“I am yours, Sir.”
Khan nudged her lips with the head of his cock and she sucked in his length, her eyes straining upward to meet his gaze.
After a few minutes, he pulled away from her and lifted her to her feet with such strength she felt as if she were flying for a second. Guiding her toward the desk, he pushed her back until she sat on the edge.
“I want to see your face when you come.” Pushing her knees wide open, he stepped between them and with one hard thrust, he was inside her.
Selena moaned at the invasion, her body wrapping its warmth around him. He pulled her forward to meet his lips. The kiss was hard and hungry. Khan nipped her lips with his, pushed his tongue into her mouth. She yielded to him, letting her mouth be soft and open. She was just as hungry as he was and wanted to soak up everything he had to give. He moved on to kiss the nape of her neck and bit her, the pain forcing a soft gasp from her throat. She gripped his shoulders, her fingers digging into the meat of his broad muscles.
The whole time his hips undulated against her core. Her knees allowed her to feel the powerful flex of his ass as he thrust into her.
They came at the same time, shuddering into each other and their gazes locked. Selena was afraid if she looked away that he would disappear.
Without a word, Selena sank to her knees and cleaned her master’s cock. Khan smiled down on her and caressed the top of her head in approval. When she was done, he lifted her to her feet and brought her to sit on his lap.
She rested her head against his shoulder. “What happened, Khan? How did you come back?”
He squeezed her tight. “You opened the locket after the third night.”
“But that was days ago. Nothing happened.”
He gave her another squeeze. “I’m here, aren’t I?”
“And the woman who cursed you?” Selena thought back to the shadowy figure that had appeared at the foot of her bed.
His eyes widened in surprise. “How did you know about her?”
Selena shrugged. “I think she showed up in my bedroom the other night.”
He frowned. “She’s no woman, but a demon. I have no idea where she is and I don’t intend to look.”
“Are you human now?” She ran a hand over his chest as if double-checking.
“Yes. I thought maybe she had changed me, that I had become like her, but I’m not. I’m a man like any other.”
She shook her head. “Not like any man I know.”
He smiled, his eyes flashing with amber fire. “I wish I could say I was sorry, but I’m not. Any man like me would never let you go. I’m glad you were there for me to take.”
Selena snuggled in close, inhaling his masculine scent.“I’m happy to be yours, but tell me what happened. How did you end up in the locket?”
“I am a dominant. You understand this about me, yes? Like those books under your bed.” He waited for her nod and then continued, “The demon came to me, thinking to seduce me and make me hers to command. When I wouldn’t succumb and instead tried to bend her to my will, she bound me to the locket out of spite. The only way to break the curse was to find a woman who wanted me just the way I am.”
“How long ago was this?”
“Centuries,” he said his expression grim.
Selena shivered. “It must have been horrible.”
“It was all worth it to find you. The curse brought us together after all.” He put a hand in the pocket of his pants and pulled out a jumble of black cord with something faintly glimmering inside. With a shake of his hand it unfurled into a black choker set with what looked to be a diamond heart in the center. “Will you wear this, love? Will you be mine forever?”
Selena took the choker, fingering the soft leather that made up the band and looking at the heart. Her chest felt tight, almost bursting with the joy she felt. “Yes, Sir. I would be honored.”
Khan fastened the choker around her neck and Selena wrapped her hand around the heart. “You’re sure Jason is gone?”
“He took my place. You will not see him again in this lifetime.”
“He was blackmailing me. There’s an account set up with my name and money from the company.”
Khan put a finger to her lips and shushed her. “It’s all taken care of, pet.”
The last bit of tension she’d been feeling dissipated at his words. “Oh, thank God.” She sighed then and shook her head.
“What is it?”
“I should’ve told her about Nick too.” The idea of Nick cursed to serve women without swindling them out of money was attractive and the fact he was free sent a pang of regret through her.
Khan raised an eyebrow. “I’m pretty sure there’s only one locket.”
“They could be roommates.” The idea made her laugh and Khan joined her. She kissed him on the cheek. “You said life as I knew it would end. I was prepared to die, you know.”
He cupped her cheek in his hand. “You must have been desperate when you opened it.”
“You have no idea. My life was not worth living. Not without you.” She clung to his shoulders.
“Mine either, pet. For the first time in centuries my heart knew love again.” His hand cradled the back of her head.
“And now we’ll make a whole new life together.” She grinned at him and shifted in his lap to accommodate his growing erection. He may be human now, but his libido hadn’t changed. Khan lifted her up and eased her down his length. Selena shivered with pleasure.
This is the man I’m supposed to be with. She sighed as he filled her up and her heart swelled with joy. I’ve finally found my happily ever after.
