Seducing Celestine

by Amarinda Jones

Celestine found herself being dragged her out into the lounge room.

  “You had sex with Nick, didn’t you?”

  Was it that obvious? Okay, maybe the scream did give it away. It certainly wasn’t an “oh dear, there’s a nasty mouse” scream. It was more a “oh, this man inside me is going to split me in two but I don’t care” scream.

  “I did not have sex with Nick!” she lied, as if affronted at the accusation.

  “Liar!” Tess grinned at her friend.

  “Am not!” Celestine was not sure how she thought about the whole Nick thing so she wasn’t really ready to discuss it with anyone, let alone Tess.

  “You have no bra on.”

  “So?” Celestine crossed her arms over her breasts, feeling her nipples harden in memory of Nick’s mouth.

  “Your face is flushed, your lips are swollen and you look like you have been well and truly shagged.” Tess shook her head teasingly “So tell me about your moonlight ride last night. Seems it’s flowed over into the daylight.”

  “What?” Innocent look number three hundred and twelve from Celestine Holt.

  “I heard you scream last night and it wasn’t in fear.”

  Celestine flushed red with embarrassment.

  “Why didn’t you say something?”

  Tess grinned at her obvious discomfort at being caught out.

  “What could I say other than way to go?”

  The two women broke into a conspiratorial fit of the giggles.

  “That man has a huge cock!” Celestine hadn’t meant to say that but she felt the leftover heat of Nick inside her body.

  “I know.” Tess smiled in memory.

  “There is a strong possibility that I have slut-like tendencies. I get wet just looking at Nick and I have never come so fast in my life.”

  Tess threw back her head and laughed.

  “I tell you if I wasn’t engaged—”

  “But you are,” Celestine interrupted quickly. She suddenly did not want to think of Nick with anyone but herself. Yep, completely rational after having sex with the man twice.

  “Are you jealous?”

  Celestine snorted at this remark. Of course she damn well was. She was a woman, for God’s sake, who just had the best sex of her life. She was entitled to feel a little possessive. But she also felt the need to lie as well.

  “No, as if! It’s just a fling.”

  “Maybe, maybe not. Nick never took me in the daytime.”

  “It doesn’t mean anything.” It meant something, Celestine just wasn’t sure what.

  “We’ll see,” murmured Tess, unconvinced. She grinned wickedly at her friend. “Can you walk?”

  “Just.”

  ———

  As engagement parties went it was a hit. Plenty of food, alcohol and people in high spirits as they toasted the happy couple. Celestine was pleased for Tess but personally over the whole thing. Why would you want to get married if you had to go through all this hoopla? Wasn’t the point of getting married to be with someone and not whether you had a big party? Or maybe she was just a jaded bitch.

  “Yeah, that would be it,” Celestine muttered to herself as she made her way upstairs to escape the noise and crush of people. Free food and alcohol brought out friends you hadn’t heard from in ages.

  “Running away?”

  Celestine stiffened and turned to face Nick Swan. She had been trying to avoid him all night but it was damn near impossible. He seemed to dog her footsteps, turning up beside her or behind her and always touching her lightly yet caressingly, making her aware of him at all times. He only had to be in the house for Celestine to be aware of him.

  “Just getting away from the hungry hordes.”

  “Yes, people like to party, especially when it’s free.” Nick moved in close to her. “You smell great.”

  Celestine gulped loudly. She knew where this was going. Hot, fabulous sex. She had half sort of decided she did not want to go there again as there was no future in it. Not that she was looking for a future with any man, let alone Nick Swan. To be honest, she had no idea what she wanted anymore. Though wild sex with Nick Swan was hovering at the top of her to do list.

  “I should go downstairs and…” And what exactly am I going to do downstairs that’s going to keep you away from me?

  “I think you should stay upstairs with me.” Nick caught her to him, his hands pulling her hips to settle firmly against his already hard cock. “You’re wearing underwear.” Nick could feel the outline of it under her dress.

  “So?” A shiver of wild anticipation ran down Celestine’s spine.

  “I told you not to wear panties.”

  “Don’t be ridiculous. Like I’m going to do what you say.” Even as she said the words, Celestine knew he was going to make her take them back.

  Nick smiled down at the woman in his arms.

  “Take your panties off.”

  Just the way he said the words made Celestine wetter than she thought possible. She wanted to drop her panties to her knees. But she also wanted to see what Nick would do if she didn’t.

  “No.” She knew this would be an instant challenge to Nick.

  “Then I’m going to have to punish you, baby.” Nick picked her up in a fireman’s lift over his shoulder before Celestine had a chance to speak.

  “What the…” Her head was flung down against Nick’s firm ass as he carried her toward a nearby bedroom that was being used to house people’s coats. Celestine tried to struggle and to fight but to be honest it was only a halfhearted attempt.

  “You are the sort of woman that needs a good spanking.”

  “You wouldn’t…” It would be humiliating—and exciting.

  “Oh but I would.” Nick reached a nearby bed and dropped her on it. Before Celestine had a chance to escape Nick was on her, dragging her across his lap so she was lying facedown on the bed. Nick grabbed the hem of her dress and whipped it up, uncovering her lace-covered ass. “That you wear a bra I understand because you’re so big and suckable and I wouldn’t want any man looking at you. But panties, you don’t need them.”

  Celestine felt the tug of lace tearing as he pulled them from her body. It was replaced by a series of light smacks to her backside.

  “It’s just underwear! What’s your problem?” She could feel his problem getting harder by the second under her stomach.

  Nick continued smacking her plump, rounded ass lightly and lingeringly, his fingers dipping into the cleft making her spread her legs a little wider in response.

  “You are not to wear underwear because I want to be able to do this anytime I want.” Nick stopped and slid his fingers down the cleft of ass into the hot core of her body. “You’re so tight and wet.” He started stroking her from front to back, feeling her squirm in response.

  Celestine had been wet all day thinking about him. Now all she wanted to do was have him inside her making her come. Wearing or not wearing underwear was just a vague side issue.

  “You want my cock inside you, don’t you?” Nick slid his fingers inside her, mimicking what his cock would do.

  “Yes,” Celestine hissed as his fingers rhythmically slid in and out of her.

  “Will you ever wear underwear again?” Nick growled, demanding a response.

  “No…” Oh, she was so on the edge of coming.

  “Never?”

  “Never…” Oh, how she wanted him.

  “Okay then.”

  Nick pulled his fingers out of her and slapped her ass once and slid out from under her. His cock was so tight and full he thought he would explode. But he had no intention of taking Celestine now. He wanted to drag out the anticipation between them. “I’ll drop by later tonight for our ride.” He stood up and looked down at her as she breathlessly and indignantly tried to control herself. “You’ll want me really badly after this.”

  “Not likely.” Celestine was so close to coming that it would take no effort at all on her part to release the tension within. And after that little episod
e, she wasn’t about to ask him to fuck her. “I can look after myself.” Celestine slid her fingers down to her clit. Maybe if Nick watched her touching herself he would finish the job he started.

  Nick was inclined to stay and watch her pleasure herself but that would have been torture to himself as well.

  “Not as well as I can, baby.” Nick grinned and left the room. There would be plenty of time later tonight.

  ———

  “Nick?” Tess asked when she saw her friend come downstairs, “Yep.” Celestine was so tight with the need to come fully that she knew her own fingers were only capable of doing half the job. The man was right. She needed him.

  “That man can ruin a woman for life.”

  “He didn’t ruin you.”

  “That’s because we only were an occasional thing. You and he are clearly not occasional.”

  “It’s not going to last.” Celestine knew nothing good ever did.

  Tess looked at her assessingly. She knew both Nick and Celestine. Neither did anything without a reason.

  “You don’t know that.”

  “I do. Nick Swan is not a keeper.”

  “I think he is. He just hasn’t found the right woman to hold him.”

  Celestine knew where this conversation was going. Why was it newly engaged people had this obsessive need to pair others up?

  “I’m not looking for a man.”

  “But you found one anyway.”

  ———

  Celestine was sweating something chronic. It was the middle of an Australian summer and she was wearing a long cotton nightgown that covered her body from neck to ankles. Tess had not questioned her need to borrow the nightgown, instead she had looked at her and just shook her head as if to say “it’s not going to work with Nick”. Okay, maybe it wouldn’t but he couldn’t have it all his own way.

  “Why, hello, Grandma,” Nick said as he came in through the window and saw Celestine done up like a vestal virgin. “Did you think that would turn me off?” He asked as he started stripping off his clothes.

  “I’m just tired and I want to sleep.”

  “Yeah, right,” Nick murmured, not believing a word of it as he joined her on the bed. “You look kind of hot in that get-up.” He lay down beside her and placed his hands under his head and contemplated her.

  Celestine was boiling but she wasn’t about to let on. She wanted to come across as cool and unaffected by him. That was the plan. It didn’t have a hope in hell of succeeding but it was still her plan.

  “Are you mad at me, baby, because I left you all hot and bothered?”

  “No, not at all.” She was furious that she had lost control over a man she barely knew. What was that about?

  “Come on, you’re pissed off at me.”

  “Yes,” Celestine hissed. Calm was not a natural state of being for her and the plan was instantly thrown out the window.

  “So what are you going to do about it?” Nick pulled his hands out from behind his head and rested one on her cotton-covered hip.

  “Don’t touch me.”

  “Or what?” Nick’s hand slid onto her stomach.

  “I’ll hit you.”

  Nick chuckled at her words.

  “You wouldn’t do that.” Though Nick sensed she would certainly try. He could see it in her eyes. “You want me.”

  Celestine turned her head to look at him. He was as sexy as all get-out and of course she wanted him but that was not the point.

  “You are so arrogant thinking you can climb through a window and take any woman.”

  “You’re not just any woman and I’ll take you again.”

  That was all Celestine needed to hear. The cocky confidence that she was his for the taking. Well, she was in control now. Celestine launched herself at Nick, landing hard on top of his body, pummeling his rock-hard chest and ignoring the amused laughter from him.

  “You do not control me!” Celestine snapped as she sat astride him, feeling his cock instinctively seeking the wet heat of the body that presented itself.

  “Baby, don’t be so uptight.” Nick’s hands slid up under her gown to her naked hips.

  “Don’t tell me what to do!”

  “Okay, you call the shots.” Nick could feel her wet pussy against her cock and was more than happy to play the game her way because the end result would be the same. Mutual satisfaction.

  Celestine stopped and looked at him. She could call the shots?

  “Do what you want to me.”

  This man had left her all hot and wanting. It might be a nice idea to return the favor to see how he liked it. She tugged off the hot nightgown and threw it over her head to the floor. Instant cool relief assailed her body.

  “Don’t move,” Celestine whispered as she leaned forward and licked Nick from the top of his chest to the edge of his groin and back up again. She smiled as she heard him growl low in his throat. This was better. She had some power now. She started licking his body slowly, stopping every so often to place wet, sucking kisses over his nipples and abs. She licked the Celtic tattoo just above his heart.

  “What does this mean?” The intricate knot woven in navy blue was beautiful against the tanned flesh of his skin.

  “It is a Celtic heart that has no beginning or end. It symbolizes eternal love.”

  “You believe in that?” It was not what she expected of the moonlight man. True, she knew little about him but it seemed wildly romantic for a man who seduced women in the moonlight. It also made her feel strangely warm inside.

  “Yeah, I believe that.”

  Celestine kissed his tattoo and continued licking down his body to his cock. She stopped and looked at the man beneath her. She grabbed his cock in both hands. She smiled as he groaned. Excellent.

  “Shall I suck you until you come or just toy with you a little?” Celestine leaned down and licked the head of his cock.

  “Oh God.” Nick grabbed her head to pull her closer to his bulging cock.

  Celestine pushed him away.

  “Don’t touch or I won’t suck you.” The power to drive him insane was hers.

  Given that alternative Nick dropped his hands to the bedding.

  “I’ll behave for now.”

  “Good boy,” Celestine murmured as she licked him slowly up and down the straining shaft, massaging his balls as she went. She could feel under her hands just how on edge Nick was. Perfect. She took his cock into her mouth as far as he would go and sucked down hard.

  “Oh baby…” Nick felt like he was going to explode.

  Celestine never knew sucking a man could be like this. It was incredibly intimate yet intensely powerful and she liked it. The buck of Nick’s hips let her know he wanted to come. Too bad. She wasn’t going to let him. She took her mouth off his cock and looked at it gleaming in the moonlight.

  “Do you want me to ride you, moonlight man? Do you want me to grind down on top of you all tight and wet, taking every inch of you inside me?”

  “God, yes!” His hands reached for her hips, wanting her on top of him now.

  Celestine slid down on his cock, feeling his hot, hard heat inside her. Damn, he felt good. It was a shame to waste that but that’s what she was going to do. The man had to be taught a lesson.

  “Oops…I don’t have a condom. I guess we can’t have sex after all.” She lifted off Nick’s cock and crawled off the bed. Leave her all hot and wanting, would he? I don’t think so. Celestine walked toward the door.

  Nick laughed out loud at her actions. He knew what she was doing. He jumped out of bed and tackled lightly her to the ground.

  “Oh, I have a condom.” Nick pulled her to her knees.

  “I’m not interested now.” Celestine was on her hands and knees with Nick pressing tightly in behind her.

  “But I am and I think I can interest you.” Keeping one arm around her waist, he reached for the trousers he had discarded earlier. He had several condoms in there for the specific purpose of fucking Celestine Holt. Nick let go of he
r for a moment to put on the condom.

  Celestine scrambled forward on her hands and knees to escape him but Nick caught her easily to him. They both knew it was only token resistance on her part.

  “You’re so much fun, baby.” Nick spread her knees wide apart. “You can take control any day.”

  “This is hurting my knees.” She could feel him sliding in from behind. She pushed her ass back toward him.

  “I’ll make it worth your while.”

  “Talk is cheap. I want action now.”

  “I am commanded.” Nick penetrated her in one thrust.

  “Oh, Nick!” Celestine gasped as he deeply and slowly pumped in and out of her body. The feeling was so intense she found it hard to catch her breath. “Faster…”

  “Yes, ma’am.” Nick increased the speed and force of his thrusts.

  Celestine bit her lip, trying not to scream. She had never before been a screamer when it came to sex. Usually she yawned and was grateful when it was all over and done with. But Nick Swan made her want to scream and shout and bless the day the man was born.

  “I love you!” Even as she yelled out the words she knew they were really wrong. What the hell possessed her?

  Nick stiffened momentarily at her words.

  “What?” Had he heard correctly?

  “Uh…um…” It was really hard trying to think up a good comeback with Nick hot inside her and all she wanted to do was concentrate on coming and not covering up her mistake. “I…ah…I said I love this.” Celestine screamed as she came. She collapsed on the ground under Nick as he came hard inside her.

  Nick rolled her over and looked at her thoughtfully.

  Celestine did not like that probing look. It was looking for answers she did not have.

  “I, ah, suppose you’ve got to go now.” Where the hell did the “L” world come from? She had never told anyone before that she loved them. Freaky…

  “I can stay.” In fact Nick wanted to stay and try to work out what it was with this woman that affected him like no other.

  Celestine sat up and wrapped her arms around her legs.

  “Why ruin the mystique? I’m sure I’ll see you ‘round.” Actually she was going to make a point of not seeing him. Nick Swan was fabulous to have sex with but he was way too confusing. Or maybe she was the one confusing sex with something else.
