??Seb,” I say, placing my hands on his chest. “Not like this.”
“Exactly like this,” he murmurs and drops his fangs. He sinks them into my neck. I feel a jolt go through me. He puts his hand on the back of my head and bunches his fist in my hair. He groans softly and I feel it go through me. My nipples harden in response. Oh, fuck, I’m getting seriously turned on by this.
His hands come forward to undo the belt on my fluffy white robe, but I put my hands on his to stop him. “No.”
He releases the bite and ignores me. He runs his hands up my arms and pushes the robe off my shoulders, leaving me naked on his lap. His eyes roam hungrily over me. I don’t like the look in his eyes as they meet mine and hold my gaze. He fumbles to get his cock free and again I say, “Seb, no.” He grips my hips in a vice to stop me from climbing off him and raises me up. I can feel his tip pushing against me, rock hard. His eyes never leaving mine, he shoves me down onto his cock, so that my pussy encases him completely.
I gasp. I don’t want to do this, but I don’t do anything about it. I can’t do anything about it. It’s like my body has taken control and my mind is not my own. His gaze is intent on mine. I close my eyes to get away from it.
“Open your eyes,” he whispers, and I do as he says, unable to disobey. He is smirking at me now as I lean forward to kiss him, my hands going up to the back of his neck. My brain is yelling at me to stop this, to get off him and kick his arse, but I don’t. Instead, I kiss him deeply and he moans into my mouth as he is balls deep inside me.
“Oh, Christ, Liv. You feel so good. It’s no wonder they don’t want to share,” he murmurs against my lips. “Fuck me, baby,” he says and releases my hips from his too-strong grip so that I can move over him. He is rubbing against me in all the right places and I can’t help the rush of desire that I feel. My Dragon ripples across my back, but in protest now, not passion. She is not happy about this and quite frankly neither am I, but I can’t think why. He places his hands gently on my behind and coaxes me to ride him, all the while his eyes never leaving mine. “That’s it, baby. Oh, you feel so good,” he murmurs as I speed up, feeling the pressure starting to build deep inside.
“Are you close? I’m so close. Kiss me and then come for me,” he commands. I do as he says, and he hisses as he runs his hand down my back. I feel a jolt go through me again. I pull away from his lips and cry out softly as the pleasure rips through me.
“Oh, fuck, yes,” he says, bringing his hands up to cup my face. “Christ, I want you to do that again. It feels so good.” And just like, that I do. He groans, then whispers something to me in a language I’m unfamiliar with. All I can follow is the cadence of his words, a lilting, and beautiful sound. I blink as he shoots his cum inside me, increasing the pressure on my rear to pull me even closer to him.
“Oh, Liv. You were worth the wait,” he says before he plunges his mouth to mine. I now have full control of my senses again and I push away from him. “You need to get out of here now,” I say in a panic as I climb off him, grabbing my robe. “If he comes back and finds you here with my scent all over you and vice versa, he will punish us both.”
He adjusts his clothing and stands. “I told you, I will deal with him.”
“Seb, just get out. I need you to leave before he comes back. This was a mistake. It should never have happened.”
“A mistake? I wouldn’t call it that. You could have stopped anytime you wanted but you didn’t,” he points out.
I just stare at him, silently.
“I know you wanted me,” he murmurs.
“Not like that,” I say, finding my voice. “Please, go. I need to shower before he comes back.”
With narrowed eyes, he leaves and I Astral straight into the shower, shedding my robe and burning it with Dragon fire as I turn the taps on. The water pounds down on to me and I want to cry. I soap up, hating myself for what I just did. I betrayed my husband. I told him he could trust me to keep within the boundaries he needs and I didn’t. Constantine will see this as a huge betrayal – going behind his back when I am supposed to be here with him, and with Sebastian of all people. He is the one CK wants me to stay away from and I didn’t. The water washes away all the bubbles and I lather up again trying to clean away the self-loathing. I don’t understand why I just did what I did, but it doesn’t change anything. I betrayed those I love, who love me, and I now have to live with that guilt.
I get out of the shower and get dry in a matter of seconds. Pulling the other robe on, I sit on the sofa where I was before and pick up my magazine.
Constantine finds me like this a few minutes later. I don’t know how long I was sitting there just staring at the same page.
“Everything okay?” he asks in concern as he sees my blank expression.
“Yes, everything’s fine,” I lie with a smile and get up to kiss him, hoping that he doesn’t see my guilt. Or read it off me. Or whatever it is that he does.
“You should get ready. We are meeting everybody downstairs in half an hour.”
“Okay,” I say and slink off to the bedroom.
He follows me. “Aefre. What have you done?” he asks me suspiciously.
I stop dead. “Nothing,” I lie again.
“The guilt is rolling off you. Do you want to try that again?” he says.
Shit, shit, and more shit. I can’t tell him. If he knows what I did then he will punish me by punishing Cole and then Cole will also know what I did. Everyone will know what I did. Well, the best offense is a good defense so I turn around and quip wryly, “Can’t you just read it on me?”
He doesn’t look amused at my defiance and he shakes his head, saying, “I don’t know what powers you think I have, but I don’t ‘read’ people. Leave that to your assistant. Perhaps I should bring him up here and he can tell me what you are hiding.”
“Look, I don’t want to talk about it, okay? Can you just leave it for now?” I beg, unable to say anything else.
