“Duke, would you like to come in?” I ask him, moving away from the door motioning for him to enter.

“Thank you, baby.” as he walks in and barely gives the room a glance before he turns to me and grabs my face. “So, fucking beautiful. God. I never thought I would be holding you in arms, precious.” I love when he calls me that. Is it crazy that the moment he called me that, I wanted to lie on the floor, spread my legs and let him do whatever he wants to me? I should get a grip, fast. I am likely to make a fool of myself. I have never been ‘precious’ to anyone and that makes me easy prey. Not that he would have to work that hard since I wanted him for so long. Just as fast as I see the desire on his eyes, his face turns serious.

“I am so sorry, Esther. I just… I am a bit out of my element here. I don’t do apologies and I definitely am not used to these feelings I have coursing through my veins. I have all of these emotions inside of me, and they are all provoked...by you. You are the first woman to ever make me feel, baby. I am trying extremely hard to reign them in, but baby, I don’t think I can.” He runs his hands through his hair before holding my face.

“Duke talk to me. What feelings are you having? What could be so bad that you think I would walk away from you?” he looks me dead in the eyes with his hands still on my face. As if he is trying to keep his hand on me in some way. I can sense the urgency from him, and it makes me want to protect him. The shadows that clog his eyes are too much for me to ignore.

“Tell me, Duke. What feelings are you having issues with handling?”

“Possession, Esther. I have an intense feeling of possession when it comes to you, and I don’t know how to turn it off.”

“Who said you have too, Duke?” I ask him, running my hands up his suit jacket. I can feel the muscles through his jacket, and I try to be discreet when I squeeze my legs together. Wrapping my arms around his neck, I repeat my question, whispering it in his ear. “Why do you have to control it, babe?” he growls in my neck, his body shaking.

“Don’t push me, precious. I am trying to hold on to what little control I have left.” His hands pull me into him, his grip, hard and purposeful. “I am trying to do this right, baby. Be good for me,” he says.

Those are his last words before he flips us, now I am up against the wall as his mouth is on mine. His hands are in my hair pulling my head back as he bites and sucks my tongue into his mouth. I can’t help but moan as he takes control, his body flush against mine grinding on me. I can feel my thighs rubbing against each other. We go at it for what feels like hours, but it could be minutes. His hands are all over me. It isn’t until I feel his fingers brush against my nipples and pinch them, that I realize he has unbuttoned my shirt.

“Duke.” I moan as my body is shivering from his touch. I try to unbutton his shirt, the need to touch his body suddenly more necessary. I finally get my hands on him and he pulls it away, along with his mouth. We are both breathing heavy with our foreheads touching.

“We have to stop, baby. I need to at least take you out once before I obliterate that strawberry flavored pussy between your legs.” Shit. Why is that so fucking hot? I nod my head as he kisses me one more time, this one chaste and sweet filled with adoration and promise.

“Tomorrow, precious. I promise. Be ready by six.” His final words before he walks out the door leaving me in a wet puddle of lust. Hell, I am ready now. Tomorrow can’t come fast enough.Chapter ElevenDukeShockingly, I am the first one of my brothers to arrive for the board meeting. I am normally the last to arrive, but I am anxious as fuck to get through the day. My date with Esther tonight is the only thing I am looking forward to today. The other members of the board are seated and waiting for it to begin. I take my seat at the table and drink the coffee I brought in with me. My brothers trail in one by one until we are all seated.

“Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,” Prince says, beginning the meeting.

“Good morning,” several people respond, myself included.
