I stroke her arm, loving the way she angles in closer against me and she whispers, “Because I’ve had enough emotion for one night. I’m tired and I want to forget I ever woke up today.”
Sighing, I push her gently away and smile. “Come.”
“Where?” She’s guarded. Her expression tells me she’s expecting the worst and I nod toward the bed. “You’re tired. You shall sleep.”
“With you?”
Her eyes widen and I nod. “Of course, with me.”
“Why, of course? I’m not, well, I don’t, um, sleep with men.”
“I’m glad to hear it.” It makes me chuckle softly at the widening fear in her eyes.
“Allow me to be your first.”
“No!” the panic in her eyes enthralls me. I never hear that word when I offer a woman my bed. It’s unusual and I say with genuine surprise, “Why not?”
“Because I’m not, well, you know, one of them.”
“One of what?” Her embarrassment amuses me.
“A…”
She can’t even say the word and I add, “Whore. Is that what you’re failing miserably to say?”
“Yes.”
She whispers the word as if she’s afraid of it and the devil takes charge of my soul as I unfasten my belt and say huskily, “Yes what, Lilli?”
“No!”
Her eyes widen and she stutters, “I, I, mean, no. I won’t sleep with you. I’m not that kind of girl.”
My pants drop to the floor, closely followed by my underwear, and her eyes widen in panic as I stand before her naked.
“Remove your dress.”
“No!” She backs away from me and I reach out quickly and grab her wrist, tearing the fucking dress right down the middle, loving how it falls away like paper.
“Stop!” Her fear is almost palpable and a rush of blood heads straight to my cock when I see her trembling before me in nothing but her gray silk underwear. Fuck, Katerina deserves a raise for this. Lilli is magnificent.
I say nothing and tug her toward the bed and her attempts to escape me are in vain as I push her roughly down onto the bed and quickly follow her, pulling her into my body as I lie behind her, loving how soft her skin is against my hand.
I grip her wrists and trap her legs in mine, effectively imprisoning her in my limbs.
“Hush, baby.” I kiss her neck and whisper, “I want you to sleep. That is all.”
“Sleep?”
There’s relief in her voice and I say huskily, “I don’t force myself on women. It’s not my style. When I fuck you, it will be because you are begging me to.”
“Then dream on because that will never happen.”
It makes me smile because even now she just can’t help herself and I say gently, “No more talking. Go to sleep.”
As her breathing slows down and her body softens against mine, I have my wish. She is sleeping like a baby, too exhausted to fight anymore. I’m guessing the relief kicked in now the threat has gone. If only she knew what’s waiting in the morning. She will need all the sleep she can get because my interest in her is growing by the second. Now I have enjoyed her satin skin against mine and feasted my eyes on her sexy body still wearing my diamond collar, I experience an overwhelming surge of possessiveness that brands her as mine and for a man who doesn’t keep possessions, this is an interesting turn of events.
I wake to darkness. A quick check of my watch tells me I’ve slept for three hours. It’s the middle of the night and this is not unusual for me. I have very little sleep. I snatch the odd hours on my private plane or in the newest city I have traveled to. I never sleep with women, though. This is a first for that.
