“Poor Lucas.”She brushed her lips over my cheek before she stepped away and around the back of the chair.“This looks good.No cracks, and the wood is smooth.”

I fought to keep it as professional as I could.Valerie was safe at the moment, but there would come a time when she wouldn’t be.The little minx.

Chapter Sixteen

Valerie

My skin was tight over my body as I teased Lucas with my words.I couldn’t believe I had the courage to whisper my desires to him.I reveled in my newfound freedom.

Unable to help myself, I brushed my lips against his cheek.Heaven.I savored the feel of his skin against my lips.It was usually Lucas in control, but this time, I was.

“Lord, I want to kiss you.”The words slipped softly from my lips as I stared at him.

“Fuck.You pick your times.”His words came out hard and husky.

His tone went straight to my heart.Lord, this man was a gift.“I know, but you’re the one who got me revved up.Just think, I’m in your lap, my lips on yours.But you’re not passive, you push your tongue over my lips until I open my mouth.”

I wasn’t surprised when my breathing increased.Lucas just stared at me, desire flaring in his eyes.

“You start to take control, but I stop you.This is for me.A chance for me to explore to my heart’s content.I push your tongue aside, and I invade your mouth.You surprise me when you relax into the kiss and let me take the lead.”

Damn if this wasn’t a turn on, big time.Power and passion followed through me.“Is your cock hard?”

Lucas moaned, and I answered his with one of my own.Lord, I was enjoying the hell out of this.I hadn’t been with a man in a while, and Lucas wasn’t exactly a stranger to me.

“My turn.”

Before I could register what he said, he stood in front of me.“Now I have you restrained, and I’m standing between your legs.”

His words lit a fire in me.“Damn.”I hadn’t expected him to take control again.But it was hot as hell.

“I can’t have you forgetting who the Dom is,” he whispered in my ear.

“Never.”I nipped his ear lobe.

“Brat.”He shifted.“When we’re alone, I’m going to kiss you until there is no doubt in your mind who is in control.”

My pussy clenched at the thought.I wanted to lift my legs around his waist and pull him closer.Too bad we were both clothed and in public.To feel him slide into my body would be heaven.I moaned.

“Damn it, woman.That moan tells me all I need to know.” His breath was hot against my skin.“You’re going to have me coming like a schoolboy.”

“Maybe that’s what I want.”His words sent waves of need through my body.Everything inside me wanted this man.Who was I kidding?I’d wanted him since we cleared the air that morning on my patio.I was ready for a relationship with Lucas.My gut clenched with fear, but I trusted myself and what I was feeling.

His breath brushed my ear.“I want you in my bed, but we’re in public.”

I stiffened.Oh hell.“I forgot for a short moment where we were.”My body tightened, and my skin was hot, but he was right.This wasn’t the right place or time.I’d gotten carried away.We both had.

“I forgot as well.”He brushed his lips over my cheek before straightening.“At least if someone was watching it looks like we were have an intense conversation.”

“Thank goodness.”

Maybe I’d talk to Josh and Dean about renting this piece of equipment for a weekend of fun with Lucas.I bit my lip.Was I really that bold?

“I guess we better get back to examining the equipment.”My voice was soft, and my pussy pulsed.We’d have to continue this later.We had work to do.I pushed all my emotions and feelings away, trying to get my head back into the game.

“Yes.Let’s continue.”

Lucas took my hand and led me over to the next piece of equipment with small steps.I glanced at his crotch.Oh, no.Poor guy.The outline of his hard cock was evident.Part of me rejoiced in doing that; another part was sorry for the pain he had to be in.
