“I am now. Do you like to dance, gorgeous?”
“I don’t know. I haven’t tried yet.” he nods and stands up.
“Dance with me. Please.” remember you are someone else tonight, Scarlett. Just say yes and do it.
“Okay. Sure.” I place my hand in his, put my champagne glass on the counter, and follow him to the dance floor.
“Just follow my lead. I won’t let anything happen to you.” I nod, slowly believing him for some reason.
“Okay.” I don’t recognize the music, and none of the others are in attendance. All I know is right now, at this moment, I feel happier and more alive than I ever have.
For what feels like hours, we dance, looking into each other's eyes, not talking but saying a lot. I lay my head on his chest and inhale his scent of lemon and sandalwood. I think. His hands stay firmly on my waist, but I swear a few times he kissed the top of my head and whispered the word mine. I know I sound crazy, and it could have totally been my imagination, but I want it to be true this time. “Spend the night with me.” He asks, lifting my chin to look at him.
“I don’t… I am only here because I can be hidden. I don’t want to…”
“We can keep our masks on if you want.” I can see the hurt in his eyes at my hesitance, but his willingness to give me this security makes me say yes. “I can’t let you go yet, and I want to ring in the new year with you, worshiping you as you deserve.” Oh my. My eyes begin to water at his sweet words, and I swallow them, letting them sink into me, praying for the strength to either walk away or see this through in the morning. But for right now, I answer him.
“Yes. Yes I want to be with you. Tonight.”
No time wasted; he takes me with him to the bank of elevators. Once on it, he pins me to the side and sweeps his tongue across my lips. I am so stunned I don’t respond until he growls at me. “Open your mouth, Red. Kiss me back.” Oh hell. His growly command does something to my body, and I immediately do what he orders.
I have no idea where we are or where we are going. All I know is I don’t want this moment to be over. Far too soon, the doors open, and we have to stop to walk into the room. Soon, my dress is on the floor, and I’m lying in the middle of the bed, wearing only a face mask. There is something scandalous about kissing a man and not knowing his name or what he looks like. Scandalous but hot as hell. Then he’s naked and between my thighs. When he kisses me, I feel like my whole body is on fire. He moves down my body with a skill that scares me. Before I know it, his face is buried in my pussy. He’s licking, sucking, and biting me in the best way. A feeling of euphoria washes over me, and I come hard.
When he comes up, his chin glistens with my juices. He smiles at me before leaning down and kissing me again. I can taste myself on his lips, his tongue. It’s wrong, but oh so right.
I watch as he grasps his cock and strokes it while looking down at me.
“You ready, Red?” he asks, his voice raspy and… familiar, maybe? I don’t know, but then he touches me again, and all thoughts of his voice are gone. All I can think about now is a pleasure. Pure pleasure.
“Yes, Phantom,” I murmur.
“Phantom?”
“Your mask,” I say, reaching up and touching it.
“Right,” he says, leaning down and kissing me again. God, I could live on this man’s kisses. “I’ll ask you again. Are you ready for my cock?”
“Yes,” I breathe, and he slowly enters me, breaking my cherry. “Oh, God.”
He feels so good inside of me, and I never want it to end.
PROLOGUE
SAMUEL
She doesn’t knowwho I am, but I sure as fuck know who she is. I’m not ashamed to admit that I am obsessed with this girl. My first thought in the morning is of her and my last thought at night is of her in my bed. It’s a vicious fucking cycle that has to end soon. One way or another.
Scarlett is my executive assistant, but tonight, she’s all fucking mine. Watching her walk into that ballroom, wearing that blood-red dress, bursting with confidence, I knew I was doing the right thing here. I’ve earned this. I’ve dreamt of this moment for far too long, and now, I’m taking it. Taking her. Worshiping her.
Finally, the wait is over; I think as I look down at her beautiful body, spread open for me. She’s gorgeous, but she doesn’t know it. She’s also adorable. She’s a fuzzy, sock-wearing, romance book-reading, Twizzler-loving nerd. I love that and every damn thing else about her. To be with her, like this after two years of fucking my hand to the thought of her, is surreal.
I groan as I sink into her. Two long, desperate years have culminated in this one moment. I never expected her to be a virgin; she’s too goddamn beautiful, but fuck. Sinking my bare cock into her hot cunt and being the first man to do it? It’s an intense privilege I’ll never forget as long as I live. She’s so wet and tight; I’ll never last. I give her a moment to adjust, and then I move. Slowly at first, then faster and faster until I’m pounding into her with wild abandon. Her moans of pleasure spur me on. How can they not? They are all I’ve wanted to hear since the day I hired her. I could barely fucking speak to her because I was imagining what it would be like to spread her out on my desk and lick every inch of her body. She’s all curves with pale skin and freckles. I am hooked on her.
I tried to keep it professional. I swear I did. HR horror stories were going through my mind every time I tried to ask her out. As the owner of The Rawlins Corporation, I have thousands of employees who depend on me. I’ll admit, the thought of them had me stopping in my tracks, but enough was enough. I fucking made up a holiday masquerade ball in order to pursue her discreetly, but that was a mistake. One time will never, ever be enough.
Her legs are wrapped around her waist as she meets me thrust for thrust. I kiss her lips before dragging my tongue down her neck to her chest. Her nipples are raspberry-colored perfection. I wrap my lips around her tight peak, sucking and biting it. Her fingers nails score down my chest.
“Come for me, Red,” I growl, needing her release before I find mine. Her little pussy clenches around my cock, and she screams out. My balls tighten, and I fill her with my seed. An image of her round with my child flashes in my mind.
