He’s here for me.
How can I refuse him now when the tables seem to be turning?
“Come with me to my office,” he says in my ear. “We can talk this over in private.”
I nod, his hand still caressing my cheek. I’m powerless to say no. I’m always powerless when it comes to Leo. He removes his hand and leads me out of the room. I abandon my packed bags and paintings, and walk down the corridor with his hand on the small of my back, past the other staff who have come out of their rooms to investigate the commotion. I watch Rachel’s expression as the scene unfold, her anger evident as I come one step closer to getting what we’ve both wanted for so long.
Him.
Chapter Seven
Leo
I guide Amelia to my office, my hand possessively resting on her back. After watching what happened in her bedroom, I feel like I can never leave her side again. I hate that another man even attempted to put his hands on her. I hate that if I hadn’t been there to stop it, he might have hurt Amelia. I hate that I didn’t go to her as soon as possible. I’m so angry tonight. Angry with Claudia, angry with Dan, but mostly angry with myself. Amelia has been here all along and I’ve waited far too long to make my move, to let her know what she means to me. I just hope it’s not too late.
I open my office door for her, and she shakes a little as she steps inside. I touch her face again as I close the door behind me.
“Are you alright?” I ask. “I need to make sure.”
She nods. “I’m going to be okay. He scared me for a minute but I’m okay.”
“I can’t believe he tried to do that to you. If I ever see him again, I’ll kill him with my bare hands,” I snarl.
Her eyes are full of sadness.
“You don’t need to do that for me.”
“I do. You’re too important to take any risks,” I growl. “He wanted to hurt you and I can’t handle that. I can’t handle that I almost missed it. You were in danger and I wasn’t there.”
“You saved me,” she whispers. “You got me out of there safely. You did everything you could for me, and I’m so grateful. But Leo...I’m so confused. I don’t know what’s going on.”
I step closer to her. “I’m sorry,” I sigh. “I’m sorry that I’ve put you through so much. All I want is you. That’s all I’ve ever wanted since we met. I don’t care about the inheritance clause, and I certainly don’t care about a woman like Claudia. You and me...that’s what’s important to me.”
She gasps as I grab her waist and pull her close. I can feel my cock throbbing hard between my legs. I’ve resisted her for so long, but I can’t take it anymore. I need her like I need to breathe. I need to know how it feels to be with the only woman in the world who can give me the pleasure I’ve long desired but never received. I want every inch of her body. I want to touch her, to taste her, to indulge in every whim.
I want her like I’ve never wanted anything before.
“You’re mine,” I growl. “And I want to show you how much you belong to me.”
My lips crash against hers before she can say a word. The passion in the kiss is undeniable. She doesn’t hesitate to kiss me back, her arms wrapping around my neck naturally. We’ve both waited so long for this moment, and now that it’s here, it’s everything I wanted and more. It’s fireworks lighting up a dark sky. It’s a tidal wave of emotion. Her lips are so soft on mine and I can only imagine the things those lips are going to do before the night is over. I want my own mouth to have the chance to explore her body, to taste her, to finally indulge in the fantasies that have kept me up at night for months.
My hands are tearing at her clothes already. I need to see her naked body. I need to see every inch of her perfect skin. I tug her T-shirt over her head and discard it before she even has time to react to what I’m doing. I growl hungrily at the sight of her breasts, covered only by the lacy bra she’s wearing. I waste no time in unbuttoning her jeans and she kicks them off before diving in for another kiss, her fingers nervously fiddling with my shirt buttons. As she pushes the shirt off my shoulders, I grab her and lift her up, her legs wrapping around my body like it’s the most natural thing in the world.
