Alex canted her hips against his hand. “More, Lucien.”
He found the slit in her drawers and pressed two fingers inside. Then let out a guttural curse as he grazed her flesh. She was so wet. Forhim. He began to stroke and pulled back to watch her face. Alex had closed her eyes but then he felt her fingers on his wrist.
“Like this,” she murmured, directing him higher, and began making slow circles with his fingertips.
As he followed her lead, the change was immediate. Her eyelashes fluttered and her breath quickened. He pressed a little harder and she let out a very rewarding gasp.
Her head fell back and she tilted her hips a little higher. He wrapped his free arm around her waist and guided her down onto the desk until she could comfortably lean on her elbows.
Suddenly she gripped his wrist and looked him directly in the eye. “Don’t stop.”
As if he even could.
Lucien moved his fingers a little faster and her eyes fluttered shut again as she began moving her hips against his hand. Faster and faster until she cried out and her whole body tensed. She was absolutely mesmerizing. Lucien had barely recovered from this display when her trembling hand covered his own and guided him toward her entrance. She shot him a desperate look.
“I need more.”
He nodded and pressed a finger inside her channel, then another. She was even hotter and wetter than he could have ever imagined. “Oh God, Alex,” he groaned as she tightened around him. He began to pleasure her with his fingers and she let out another sob.
Her hands gripped the front of his shirt.“Lucien.”
He pressed a hand against the front of his trousers. The urge to fuck her was nearly overwhelming. He hadneverfelt this tempted before.
Alex let out another gasp and shuddered. He could feel the orgasm rippling through her wet heat. Then her eyes flew open and she gave him a look of such raw intensity that he felt impossibly exposed.
“Please,” she begged, reaching for him. “Please let me.”
Her gaze softened and Lucien was completely at her mercy. In that moment she could have asked anything of him and he would have crossed the fiery pits of hell to give it to her. He gave a breathless nod and she practically tore his trousers open. His aching cock sprung free from his smallclothes and Alex gripped his length. She began to pump him, gently at first until he urged her to go harder.
“I won’t last,” he gasped.
“I don’t care,” she said, working him even faster.
Within another moment he let out a guttural roar and bent overAlex as he let out the strongest release of his life. His hands pressed onto the desktop and he shoved against her hand, mindless with a pleasure that went on and on. He hadn’t even had the wherewithal to avoid spending on her, but Alex didn’t seem to mind. She only drew him closer and stroked his back in slow circles.
I’m not sure which one of you is in more trouble.
The duke’s ominous words echoed through his addled mind, and Lucien let out a weak laugh he hoped didn’t sound as desperate as it felt.
Him. It was definitely him.
Alex wiped off her glasses and held them up to the light. They had gotten rather foggy during their intimacies. She cast a glance at Lucien as he pulled on his jacket. He had been avoiding her gaze ever since they finished, and she was trying very hard not to be disappointed.
“May I ask you a question?”
He finally looked at her and for a moment wariness flashed in his eyes. “Certainly,” he replied as he straightened the lapels of his coat.
“Whyare you a virgin?”
He let out a surprised laugh. Alex knew she was being forward, but it seemed within her rights to at least ask.
“I was busy running a business,” he said with a shrug.
Alex blinked. “But you must have had opportunities.”
Lucien looked uncomfortable. “I suppose. Eventually. And I don’t need to remind you that I was a rather… awkward youth. That didn’t disappear overnight.”
“Fair enough.”
