“Yes,” she whispered.
“If you’re a good girl, you might get it.”
“I’ll do—”
“Quiet! I didn’t tell you to speak.” He moved off the bed to stand beside her, and as he looked down at her, he slowly stroked his cock. “If you’re a good girl, I’ll let you have it, but if you’re bad…” He smiled wickedly and suddenly she wanted to know what the punishment would be.
Evan had large hands. Nicely formed fingers and neat nails. With each stroke his bicep bunched and released. She liked a man with nice arms. Her gaze dropped to what his hand was playing with, pre-cum glistening on the fleshy head.
She swallowed hard. She was not a patient woman. He bent over her and captured a nipple between his teeth. She hissed in a sharp breath, as she forced herself to keep from rising to him. His hand brushed her thigh, the tip of his heavy cock nudging her.
He tugged at the nipple, causing all sorts of wild shivers to course through her. “You like the pain, Katy?” he breathed. His hot breath against her wanting flesh flamed her desire.
“No,” she denied. Only to herself would she dare admit, that she liked the pain that came from being dominated. She liked that aspect of her kink to be taken out of her hands, almost as if it wasn’t really her decision to be dominated. In reality, though, she allowed it. The realization should have shocked her, but it only made her hotter for the man above her, whom she trusted not to hurt her. That revelation surprised her.
She and Evan were fuck buddies for the most part. Yes, they occasionally went out to dinner or to a movie but it was always a precursor to sex. He was a good lover. She had opened up more for him than any other man. Though she didn’t orgasm, she enjoyed sex with him. He was funny, passionate, and unselfish. But their intimacy began and ended in bed.
It struck her at that moment that she wanted more from him. Had wanted more for a while now but hadn’t been willing to risk the relationship they did have. Knowing she wanted more made her feel vulnerable and that scared her. For now, between her long hours in the lab and his lack of interest in going to the next level, it was easier just being fuck buddies. No one got hurt. Besides, if Evan had true feelings for her he would not have been so quick to watch another man fuck her. And that was the saddest thing of all.
She shivered as her mind and body recalled the tremendous orgasms that had ensued with Green Eyes. Oh, but what a gift Evan had given her. The tension her thoughts created eased from her only to be replaced by a different tension. She and Evan needed to talk—after he fucked her proper.
“Where did you go?” he softly demanded.
Katy opened her eyes not realizing she had closed them and looked up into two heated hazel eyes. A sly smile stole across her lips. “That’s for me to know and you find out.”
His eyes flared and his cock flexed against her thigh. “It will be my pleasure to fuck it out of you.”
“I would expect nothing less.”
He grabbed her hands pushing them over her head. “Grab the headboard and don’t let go until I tell you.”
The urge to defy him was overrun by the excitement of him having control of her body. Trembling violently, she felt the slow drip of cream between her thighs. She moaned as she arched, twisting her hips toward his eager cock.
“No, no, my dear,” he softly said as he nipped a hard nipple, and pressed her hips back into the sheets. “You don’t get any of that until you tell me what was going on in that pretty little head of yours.”
“I—I was thinking how much I liked two cocks in me at the same time.”
“Yeah?” he said, as he straddled her and pushed her thighs apart with his knee.
“Yeah,” she gasped. “Please, Evan,” she begged. “Don’t torture me.”
“How can I not when you’re talking about liking another man’s cock inside of you?”
“But you—”
He nudged her slick lips with his cock head and nipped at her shoulder. “I didn’t think you would do it.”
Her nipples puckered and her breasts grew heavier as she relived the moment Green Eyes slid her glasses from her face and then unhurriedly unclasped the hair clip allowing her hair to spill down her back, a sensuous precursor to carnal paradise. “I was shocked when you dared me, I thought—”
His lips slid along her collarbone, eliciting a moan. His fingers trailed down her belly to rest on her damp mound. When he cupped her, she fought the urge to raise her hips to encourage him to go further. He slid his middle finger across her clitoris, her juices making it swirl easily. “Oh—”
“Oh, indeed,” he said, lapping a nipple. His tongue swirled around the hardened peak as his fingertip traced a slow figure eight around her clit.
“Evan,” she breathed.
“Don’t move,” he commanded. “Not one muscle until I say you can.”
His lips trailed languidly from her breasts down her belly to her navel as his feather soft fingertips played with her clit and pussy lips. His tongue was wet, and strong, lapping her skin as if he were a dog licking a bone. Sensation riveted her, and if she could have, she would have sunk her fingers into his hair and pressed his lips more firmly into her, demanding he—ahhh, his tongue swirled around her hot nub, catching it, holding it, letting it go before quickly retaking it. His finger slid deeper against her seam, opening her, back and forth, so slow she was going to die of anticipation.
She fought her body’s need to writhe and pitch. Unendurable tension swelled within her. Her jaw hung slack as she gulped for air, and her fingers grasped the headboard so tightly they ached.
When she squeezed her eyes shut, two piercing green eyes taunted her. The orgasm built with a fevered pitch. She forced the image out of her head. She was with Evan.
“Open your eyes, Katy. Look in the mirror and see how sweet and pink and creamy you are.”
She did as commanded and nearly came at the sight.
“Tell me why you took my dare?”
“Because I was angry you even asked it!” she cried. And because I could have Green Eyes. As his finger slid deeply into her, she gasped. “Oh, sweet Jesus, Evan, please—”
“You could have said no.” He suckled her nether lips and slid in a second finger.
Her body quaked. She could have. But she didn’t. “I thought you didn’t—caaarre … I mean—” She licked her dry lips. “We’re just fuck buddies.”
He stopped all movement and caught her hooded gaze in the mirror. “Is that all you think you are to me?”
She swallowed hard and forced back the urge to undulate. “Aren’t I?’
A smile stole across his handsome lips. He kissed her clitoris, then nipped at it, causing her hips to flinch. It felt so damn good when he did that. Just the right amount of pain. Not enough to hurt, just enough to—ahhh, he grazed his teeth along her stiff little peak.
“I love fucking you, Katrina Winslow.” He slipped his fingers from her and she almost cried. His hands cupped her breasts, bringing them together, and he sucked each nipple, then kissed his way up her neck to her lips. He dug his fingers into her hair, cupping her head in his palms. “You are so responsive tonight. So eager. Yet still so shy.” He yanked her hands lose, freeing her, and as he did, he hovered above her. “It took another man in our bed to unleash the wanton in you, Katy.” He slid into her, filling her inch by inch to capacity. Her body hugged him as one would a long lost lover. He felt so good.
“But I’m man enough to accept that because I love fucking you.” He slowly thrust. “I love that you trust me with your body.” His lips lowered to hers, his tongue gently parting her lips. His kiss was gentle, but built quickly in tune to the cadence of his hips. “How could you ever think you were just a fuck buddy to me?”
She’d held so much of herself locked away from him because she hadn’t thought he would care, or like his predecessors, he would abandon her. “I’m sorry, Evan, I had no idea.”
He moved slowly but deeply in and out of her body. It felt so goo
d. If she didn’t know better, she’d say she was drugged. He swept her away to a place she never imagined she would go with him.
His kiss deepened, and the urgency in his body quickened. Tearing his lips from hers, he clasped her face between his hands. “Come, Katy, come now.”
And for the first time with Evan inside her, she did.
“God, yes,” he hissed. “Finally.”
“Evan,” she gasped, clinging to his shoulders as he followed her in an orgasm of his own.
“Katy,” he cried triumphantly, capturing her lips again, grasping her tightly to him as their bodies strained in the timeless throes of passion.
van lay sprawled on his back. Katy wanted to snuggle up to him and talk about what just happened between them. But she’d learned the first time they’d had sex that he wasn’t much of a cuddler afterwards. “It’s not you, Katy,” he’d said when he gently pushed her away. “I just like space.”
She curled up alongside him, but after what just happened on this bed, she wanted a connection, even a small one. Reaching out a hand to run her fingers through his damp hair, Evan tensed. She stopped inches away from him, feeling rejected. And a little angry by his rejection. She tried not to think about Green Eyes, and the things he had done to her body and how it made her feel. Even as she tried not to think about him she couldn’t help it. Her body warmed, and her sensitive nipples tingled as she wondered if he was a cuddler.
Dragging her thoughts back to her boyfriend, Katy waited patiently as Evan lay quiet for long minutes staring at the ceiling. Finally, he loudly exhaled.
“What’s wrong?” she asked, hoping they could talk this out. Wanting to talk it out and move on to the next phase of their relationship.
He turned and faced her, his eyes serious. “I’m having some trouble understanding what just happened here, and how I feel about it.”
She rose up on an elbow. “Okay.” She bit her tongue to keep from blurting out that it was okay, they could work through it. But she knew it wasn’t okay with Evan. Not now anyway. But it would be. She was patient.
“One minute I’m getting off watching you getting fucked by some stranger; a fuck you were thoroughly enjoying in case you didn’t think I noticed. And from my perspective enjoying more than any time we’ve fucked, and it pissed me off that you came for him in less than ten minutes when you hadn’t come for me in six months.”
Uh, what was she supposed to say? ‘I’m sorry you dared me to invite that stud into our bed and that I liked it?’
“Fuck,” he cursed under his breath.
“Yes we did,” she softly said, trying to lighten the mood.
Lifting up on an elbow she gazed intently at him. When his dick twitched, her lips slowly parted. “I think someone wants to go again,” she teased.
He turned and fully faced her. “You’re beautiful, Katy. I’ve never seen you more stunning then you are at this moment.” He traced a finger across her tender lips. “Your lips are still swollen from my kisses.” He brushed a strand of hair from her cheek, his fingertips trailing across her skin. His dick swelled.
She smiled softly. “You’ve never said those things to me before.” She moved into him.
“Evan, I don’t want to hide our relationship anymore.”
Swallowing hard, he moved away avoiding her gaze. “You know the rules, Katy, no fraternizing.”
“I can move to another lab, Evan, and besides, it’s not like I’m going to get fired. I want you to meet my family. It’s time.”
Shaking his head, still avoiding her gaze, he said, “I’m not sure if we’re there yet.”
Scooting closer to him she touched his shoulder. “If we aren’t just fuck buddies, why not?”
He jammed his fingers through his hair and loudly exhaled. Stiffening, Katy sat up and looked pointedly at him. “Or are we?”
Rising up on his elbows, Evan looked up to the ceiling as if he would find his answer there. Alarm bells sounded in Katy’s ears. Intuitively she knew his issue wasn’t with what just happened in this room, it was something else entirely. “Katy,” he sighed and looked at her. “I can’t give you any more than I have been.”
She grabbed the sheet, pulling it around her. “Why not?”
“I just can’t,” he said, sitting up presenting his back to her and dropping his feet to the floor.
Shaking her head, she slid from the bed on the other side and moved around the room picking up her clothing, awkwardly getting dressed.
She was shaking. Afraid she was on the verge of losing him for something he wanted and she did to please him. “Man up and tell me the truth, Evan. I can take it.”
He looked past her to the mirror, scowling at the man staring back. “I’m married,” he said.
The words didn’t register. Married? Like to his job?
“I’m married, Katy,” he repeated. “I have been for twelve years.”
Ding. Message received. Married as in two people legally bound as spouse and spouse. “What?” she demanded, whirling around. “You’re what?”
Dragging his eyes from the mirror, Evan dropped his head into his palms and rubbed his eyes with the heels of his hands. “I’m married,” he said, refusing to meet her eyes.
Jaw agape, she stood rooted to the floor too stunned to move, to even think of how she was going to kill him.
He looked up at her with pleading eyes. “I didn’t mean for things to go this far, Katy. But I—I became obsessed with your research. Do you have any idea how brilliant you are?” He stood and jammed his fingers through his hair. “And Jesus, when I saw you in the gym almost a year ago, and what you keep hidden beneath your lab coat. Call me a fucking dog, but I couldn’t help myself. I wanted you so badly I couldn’t concentrate on anything except finding a way to have you.”
Dropping her clothes, Katy grabbed her five inch stiletto and whacked him on the back of the head. The loud crack of the leather smacking his skull gave her immense satisfaction. She raised it again. “Get out.”
The bastard nodded and quickly dressed. As he made it to the door, he turned to her and said, “I know it doesn’t matter, but I’m sorry.”
“That and a dollar will get you shit. Now leave.”
When the door shut behind him, Katy stood staring at it for several long minutes. Stunned was the only word to describe what she felt at that moment.
Stunned.
She hadn’t seen that bomb coming. Oh, but Katy, you had to have known … What a stupid fool she had been! How did she not see the signs? Oh, my God! They were all there! They kept their affair secret from the people they worked with. They only met on the weekdays, he always had to be somewhere on the weekend. He never spent the night at her place and they never went to his place. The rare times he had his phone turned on he guarded it like it was Fort Knox. And at work? How had it never come up? Why didn’t she know this? Because she was a lab rat and so were her coworkers. They were scientists who kept to themselves, never discussing personal matters. The perfect environment for living in a fucking bubble!
She jumped into the shower and scrubbed every inch of Evan Scott from her body. God she wanted to hurt him. She had believed his lies. Every last one of them! What a naive fool she had been!
Even after scrubbing her skin raw she still felt dirty. Naked and dripping wet, Katy paced her room. She couldn’t decide if she was more angry, embarrassed or hurt. Hell, why not the trifecta? She was furious she had been led on to the extent that she had developed feelings for Evan. Angry with herself for being so damn naïve. Embarrassed didn’t begin to describe how humiliated she felt. Not so much for being used, but trusting Evan enough, wanting to please him so much she had agreed to sex with a stranger! Who did that? Why had she allowed herself to be manipulated into such a tawdry scenario?
She was a brilliant scientist for God’s sake! Her IQ 175! Pharmaceutical companies threw obscene amounts of money at her to simply mention their name in her research papers or AMA articles. For one so brilliant, how could sh
e be so dumb?
Her chest ached. She didn’t love Evan. She didn’t know if she was capable of such an emotion. Not in the romantic sense. She loved her mother and she loved her best friend Rosie. She even loved Rosie’s hubby Elliot. She had a cat once and loved him until he ran off abandoning her like every other male in her life. But she dealt. She had her work. She had her charities and she had her foundations. It had been enough before Evan walked into her life, it would be enough after. With that understanding, Katy grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her damp body. The only problem with all of this logical deducing was that it didn’t fill her new need. Because up until just a few hours ago, her life didn’t consist of one orgasm much less multiples. And she kind of wanted another one. Or two. Or ten.
But that meant a man. And men were public enemy number one.
The next morning she strode into the conference room as if nothing had happened, when in reality, she was dying inside. She couldn’t help it. Embarrassed heat rose in her cheeks as she caught Evan’s impassive gaze. How nice for him that he could look right through her as if she were as insignificant as a fly on the wall. Her pride kicked her bruised ego in the ass. He wasn’t worth her time. Married bastard. She deserved a man who chose her and only her. And she sure as hell deserved a man who wouldn’t lend her out for free fucks. Fuck you, she mouthed, then strode past him to the podium. Eat your heart out Evan Scott. It took a stranger to do in less than ten minutes what it took you over six months to do.
Today was her day to shine as she presented her groundbreaking studies on a new breast cancer gene study. And she was damned if she was going to allow anything or anyone take the spotlight off her and her crowning achievement thus far in her skyrocketing career.
With that focus, she made her presentation with calm, dignified grace. It gave her great satisfaction to watch Evan go from uninterested observer when she walked into the large meeting room to captive audience by the time she gave her summation.
