Proposition: A Dark Billionaire Romance

by Angela Blake

  “What are you - ” she trailed off as he grabbed a loofa and began to gently scrub her body.

  “Let me take care of you,” he said simply.

  Jenny let her head roll back as he carefully washed every nook and cranny over her body making her grow more and more aroused by the second.

  Jenny noticed, much to her chagrin, that he was careful not to touch her breasts nor her center, and she was feeling rather frustrated at that.

  He bent down and began to kiss her center, and a moan escaped Jenny’s lips as he began to lick. She grabbed a fistful of his hair and yanked him up, so he was kissing her lips instead.

  Mark groaned as he pushed her back against the wall. As the hot water slid off their bodies, their kissing began to grow more and more fervent, and their hands began to grow bolder.

  Jenny placed her hands on his hips and shoved him closer hoping he’d get the hint. He growled in the back of his throat before he wrenched his lips away and began to kiss his way down her neck. He took one nipple between his mouth and began to suck on it so hard that Jenny’s eyes were rolling in the back of her head.

  Meanwhile his other hand was making its trail down south. Jenny left one hand playing with the hair on the nape of his neck, while the other hand made its way down and began to stroke him until he stopped what he was doing and bucked against her hands.

  He grabbed both her hands and raised them over her head, so she was helpless to his touch. He began to kiss her neck slowly, sucking and biting until he left his mark. He moved down and began to kiss and suck on her breasts till Jenny’s body began to writhe in pleasure. He moved down and kissed her stomach until he finally stopped above her center.

  He released her wrists and brought one leg up, so it was hooked around his. He gently nudged her legs apart and looked her directly in the eye before he thrust into her with one quick movement.

  They both moaned at the contact, and at first they set up a steady pace where Mark would slowly pull out then slam back into her causing both of them the maximum amount of pleasure.

  Eventually, Jenny began to claw on his back letting him know that she wanted more, and Mark wanted more too. He began to grind into her, harder and harder until they both began to scream in ecstasy.

  Mark carried her out of the shower a while later, both of them getting dressed and crawling into bed next to each other as they lay there feeling completely and blissfully spent.

  They drifted off knowing that tomorrow was a new start for all of them.

  THE END

  SWEAT

  Chapter 1

  David Westley grunted as he swung his controller to the right.

  He knew he was getting his ass kicked in the zombie game they were playing.

  At 6 ‘2’ he towered over most of the other guys on the team, so whenever he was standing up, he had the luxury of looking intimidating so no one would dare question him. He had floppy red hair, freckles on his nose and a set of deep blue eyes that one woman once called cerulean. With his defined cheekbones, strong jaw and formed physique, he usually had his pick from women.

  It helped that he had a slight Scottish accent courtesy of his Scottish parents, so once his Scottish lilt found its way into a conversation, most women were drawn to him.

  With his easy-going smile, he knew exactly what he was doing.

  He had spent quite a bit of time in Scotland playing basketball until he got transferred to America. He was reluctant at first preferring Scotland’s mountains and general feel until he got here and realized that they adored Scotland and Scottish men.

  They practically idolized them, and that was in part due to the series Diana Gabaldon wrote. Outlander or something.

  David didn’t care how or why they adored him; all he cared about is that they did.

  He wasn’t a woman at a time kind of guy, and everyone knew that about him, and no one cared. That’s why he loved America, everyone was free to do what they wanted, and the women here, all he had to do was smile at them and say a few things in that Scottish accent, and then bam hook, line and sinker.

  He could’ve been out there tonight, partying, but when his teammates suggested they come over for poker night, a round of zombies on PS and getting trashed, he happily agreed because there was nothing he liked better than a good round of zombies.

  It was an hour later, and the guys were still sitting around playing zombies, smoking or drinking. They were supposed to get up and play a round of poker, but somehow, they couldn’t get around to that.

  He frowned as a puff of smoke obscured his vision making his teammate Lucas able to get ahead of the game.

  “Hey, man.” he yelled. “You’re going to make me lose.” He titled himself to the side and bit his bottom lip in concentration.

  “You’re going to lose no matter what, hombre. No amount of fussing over smoke is going to change that,” Lucas tossed out as he landed yet another blow.

  David cursed under his breath. “That’s just luck Ramirez.”

  Lucas tossed him a look over his shoulder that let him know exactly what he thought of that.

  David knew he was yanking his chains, but he had no more strategies left except to bad mouth Lucas, and hope that it would be enough of a distraction to get him to lose the game.

  “Come on, Ramirez. Bring it hombre,” he smirked as he managed to land a shot that evened out his score with Lucas.

  Lucas grimaced. “You’re on.”

  The game continued for twenty minutes, both of them trying to beat the other, none of them succeeding. Till all of a sudden, the doorbell rang. They paused the game and stared at each other wondering who was outside.

  David uncrossed his legs and hopped up to the door. He opened the door and smiled when he noticed a group of scantily clad women walk through.

  One of his other teammates called out and introduced them. Kami and the other women were all huge basketball fans, and they knew everyone on the team, and everyone knew them.

  They were sort of like groupies but without the obsessive part.

  David let his eyes trail over Kami’s toned legs that went on for miles especially because she was wearing a micro skirt that left very little to the imagination. She had one of those tie at the front blouses that revealed part of her stomach, and when he looked at her from the back, admiring the fun curve of her ass, he noticed a tattoo peek out from underneath her skirt.

  She had a tattoo on her mid lower back. A butterfly of sorts.

  David smirked as he took in her large shapely breasts, and her petite curve deciding that he definitely wasn’t interested in Zombies anymore. All the blood rushed south as he made his way towards Kami.

  “Hey.”

  Kami turned around, an expression of mild annoyance carved onto her features until she noticed how tall he was, and her eyes paused over his copper hair, her blue eyes assessing him much like he had assessed her.

  He could tell she liked what she saw because she straightened up, fluttered her eyelashes and tossed her blonde hair over her shoulders. “Hey. I haven’t seen you around before.”

  “I’m new actually.”

  “Is that a Scottish accent?”

  Bingo.

  David pretended to look sheepish at having been caught. “You’re right. I miss Scotland too much sometimes.”

  “You’re from Scotland?” Her eyes grew wider, and she practically undressed him as she leaned towards him and placed her hand on his chest.

  “The one and only.”

  “Yo, Dave, we finishing this game or what, man?” Lucas’s annoyed voice asked as he came out of nowhere and stood behind Kami.

  David glowered at him. “Now!”

  “Unless you’re too chicken.” Lucas watched him carefully knowing that would get him to move. He gave Kami a smile. “Want to watch?”

  Kami nodded as he grabbed her hand and headed towards the tv. This time he plopped onto the couch and placed Kami on his lap.

  “For good luck,” he murmured inside her ear
as he grabbed the control and clicked play. Kami watched for a while and tried to get into the game, but after a while he could tell she grew bored. She began to carefully trace his chest, marveling at how toned he was.

  Her hands traveled down till they landed on his crotch. He jerked involuntarily and flashed a wry smile. Kami shrugged innocently as she wriggled her hips suggestively.

  David clenched his fists around the controller so hard he was sure it would leave a mark. He could feel Kami’s eyes on him, waiting for him to make a move.

  A muscle ticked in his jaw as he simply shot her a quick smile knowing that the anticipation made everything so much sweeter.

  Kami frowned at him, no doubt wondering why he hadn’t already dragged her off and thrust into her so hard, she wouldn’t be able to stand up straight for a week.

  Not that he didn’t want to.

  He just enjoyed making her squirm in desire. It gave him more time to savor the scent of her desire, and more time to plot just how he would take her, and where, and how many times.

  He bit down on the inside of his cheek until he could focus on the game once more, and Kami quietly traced his abdomen over his chest until she stopped, and out of the corner of his eye, he could see her smile, a mischievous glint in her eye.

  David raised an eyebrow at her. “What’s that look for, lass?”

  “Well, you seem to be so busy playing the game, I don’t think you’d mind if I got up and made myself busy.”

  “Oh, really?”

  Kami moved her hips once causing David to growl in the back of his throat. “What makes you think I’m not paying attention?”

  Kami stared at him as if he were asking a silly question. “Your eyes are completely on the game, both your hands are on the joystick, if it weren’t for Mr. happy over here, I’d say you didn’t have a reaction to me at all.”

  David shot her a quick look before he reached around and yanked her, so she was pressed up against him, he let one hand travel over her body while the other stayed on the joystick, his eyes never left the game.

  His free hand was rubbing her over her shirt, causing her breasts to heave in reaction. “Does this seem like a man who isn’t paying attention?”

  Kami leaned her shoulder against his, and he allowed his hand to travel down until it landed on top of her crotch. “how about now?”

  Kami breathed heavily as she kissed his neck and nibbled on his ear. “Can’t argue with that.”

  “Oh, really?” David whispered into her ear, letting his breath tingle her skin. He chuckled as he noticed the goosebumps rising all up and down her flesh.

  “Are you almost done?”

  David laughed quietly in her ear. “I am almost done actually, but see the thing is, I need to win, it’s a pride thing, so while I love driving you absolutely wild with desire, it’s good for my manly ego to win things like these then I’m going to do all sorts of wicked wild things to you all night long.”

  “Is that a promise?” she purred in his ear.

  “That’s a fact,” he murmured huskily.

  “Is that so?”

  “Is that a challenge?” One eyebrow went up as he turned to look at her, turning the full force of his cerulean blue eyes on her.

  “Think you’re up to it?”

  “Oh, I know I am.” He let a hint of his Scottish accent seep into his voice. “After all, lass, a wee lassie like you don’t stand a chance. I very much look forward to rising to the occasion.”

  “Using your Scottish accent to cheat, are you?”

  David grinned at her. “I use every weapon at my disposal.”

  She leaned forward and took one lobe between her two teeth before she pressed her body against his, so he could feel her breasts pressed up against him. “So do I.”

  “What’s that saying? All is fair in love and war.”

  Kami’s laughter echoed in his ears, a deep husky sound. “That’s right, Scot Let’s see what you can bring to the table.”

  He inclined his head in agreement, and Kami sat quietly while he played against Lucas. She moved her hand under his shirt and played with the hair on his chest. He leaned forward, so she could have better access, and he tried to keep his thoughts neutral, so he wouldn’t have a massive boner while he was trying to win otherwise he’d never focus.

  “Think you can take me down, Scot?”

  “I know I can, Spanish.”

  “Are you going to beat me while wearing a kilt and singing songs about mountains and hills?”

  David laughed. “Only if you show up ready to interrogate me like in the Spanish inquisition.”

  Lucas laughed as he reached behind his back and shoved David. David shoved him back thinking that it was nice that he had made a friend on the team. When he first transferred, he wasn’t able to make friends with anyone. The only person who seemed open to even try was Lucas. Maybe it was because Lucas was also from a different country, so he knew what it felt like to be an outsider.

  Either way, he was grateful. Lucas had taught him a lot. David just thought it was a damn shame that Lucas was no longer a ladies’ man. He was one of the best, or so David had heard. He stopped right before David got transferred. On account of the fact that he discovered he had a little girl his ex-girlfriend hadn’t told him about.

  He couldn’t imagine that ever happening to him.

  It seemed like it was complicated and a lot of work to be a father and a boyfriend. He had never tried being a full time boyfriend. Only one a really long time ago did he try seriously dating, but after a while, they just stopped.

  He was thankful it had because he liked his freedom. He loved that women knew his name, and that they screamed it frequently, in and out of the field.

  He finally beat Lucas a while later, and Lucas glowered at him. “I’m sure you cheated.”

  David threw his head back and laughed. “Naw, man. That was a good game.”

  Lucas chuckled as he went up to him to shake his hand. “Indeed. I was just going easy on you, Scotland. Don’t want you to run back to your home country after all. The NBA needs you.”

  “Yeah, sure. Whatever floats your boat,” David laughed sardonically as they shook hands. Lucas wandered off to find someone else, and David turned his attention to Kami who was licking her lips seductively.

  “Well, it seems you need a reward for winning.”

  “Do I now?” He placed his arm on the small of her back and gently began to massage it. Kami’s eyes fluttered as she bit down on her bottom lip.

  “I think so,” she murmured huskily.

  David raised an eyebrow as his hands moved up her back and rested on her shoulders. He began to knead them carefully making sure to hit all the pressure points until Kami was putty in his hands. She was practically salivating by the time he began to massage her legs.

  Kami huffed in frustration as she wrapped her arms around her waist. “Are we going to stay in one place all night, or are we going to go have some real fun?”

  David leaned forward. “As you say, Lassie.”

  Chapter 2

  Sweat was dripping down David’s face as he struggled to concentrate. There were only a few minutes left on the buzzer, and they were tied. They needed one more basket to win. He knew he wanted his team to win, but the problem was that he was cornered on all sides.

  It’s like the other team knew that he was his team’s only chance of winning, and so they wouldn’t let him out of their sight. He blew a stray strand of hair out of his face as he wiped away the sweat with the back of his hand. His shirt was sticking to his back, making a pool of sweat from underneath his arms. His shorts were stuck like Velcro, and he was sure he could no longer feel his muscles. His body screamed at his top given that this was the most intense game he’d played yet, but he couldn’t stop.

  Couldn’t stop till he got his team across that finish line.

  His mother always sided that his stubbornness came from his inner Scott. Centuries of highlanders ran through his blood, and someti
mes he wondered if maybe that was true. He was pretty sure highlanders would find this a trivial game though.

  He smiled to himself at the thought before he shook his head and attempted to reel his thoughts back in. He frowned as he tried to make eye contact with any of his teammates.

  He spotted Lucas, Keith and Blake all on different sides of the court. He was at a serious disadvantage. He stood on his toes trying to catch a glimpse of Lucas who was the closest to him. Lucas’s eyes met his, and they both gazed at where the ball was. Currently in the hands of his teammates, Blake who was doing his best to ditch the other team. Everytime he turned, there they were.

  David and Lucas made eye contact once more, before they nodded and jogged off in the direction of Blake. Blake’s eyes snapped up, and he saw that they were standing on either side of him. He gave them a grim smile as he tossed the ball to Lucas. Lucas dribbled the ball and took it all the way till half the court before he was outnumbered.

  He faked left then broke right making sure the ball landed in Keith’s hands. Keith desperately glanced around for someone to toss the ball to, and he spotted David who was right in his field of vision. The other team must’ve realized this too was for to cover him.

  David smirked as he caught the ball and sent it flying through the air.

  It landed with a whoosh right in the middle of the net and David fell to his knees and slammed his fists in the air as the buzzer signaled the end of the game. The cacophony of voices around him rose to a fever pitch as the world around blurred into a maze of colors.

  All David could hear was the pounding of blood in his ears, and the rush of adrenaline coursing through his veins. He had never scored the winning shot before. It was a big deal to him.

  He felt a group of bodies rushing towards him, and he fell to the floor with an ‘ompf’ as a group of bodies tackled him to the ground.

  “Guys?” He got elbowed in the side as he was trying to wriggle out from underneath the guys who were hollering and cheering. “You might want to actually move before you crush me.”
