The buzzing of the gun continues, but his fingers on my skin are heated as his meaningful words in my ears awaken every cell in my body.
“Do you hear me, Aurora?” Gently, he tugs on my hair.
“Yes,” I breathe out.
“Lesson number two, mon cherie. If you want my attention, just call me. Don’t dothisagain to me, ever. I will kill for you.” He licks the lobe of my ear and guides my face to his.
I wait for his lips to press against mine, but they never come. He teases me with the expectation, smiles like the devil he is, and pulls back.
I look at him, taking in those words, but he shifts away, so I have to return my gaze to the mirror.
“Lesson number three: always tell me the truth. The whole truth and nothing but the truth.”
“I never lied.” I speak to his reflection in the mirror.
“No, but you weren’t completely honest either.” He rubs over my ass and finds his way to my pussy. There he plays with me and lowers his mouth to lick from the start of my clit and suck on the hard nub until I’m moaning. “So, here’s that question again: why were you at the arena tonight?”
“I told you.” I pant when he increases his suckle and begins swirling his tongue around my clit. “I… went looking for you. To talk.”
He stops his suckle and strokes my back. “Talk about what?” A playful smile dances on his lips.
“Sunset Cove. I haven’t spoken to you about it for weeks. I want you to use my mother’s designs. I don’t think it’s fair to push me out. It’s important to me, and I can’t see why you won’t allow me such a small thing.”
He kisses my shoulder. “I’m listening, Goddess, but I don’t believe that’s why you came to see me. If you wanted to talk about Sunset Cove, you would have done so in Saint-Tropez. There were several times when you could have gotten me to agree toanything.”
“Anything?” This new information hits me hard, and I’m listening too.
“Anything.”
His hand drifts down to where my shirt is tied, and he undoes it, sliding it down my shoulders until it comes off.
He takes off my bra next, leaving my heaving breasts bobbling. He catches the nipple of my right breast and massages the tip.
“Now tell me.” He catches my nipple between his thumb and forefinger, gently squeezing. “Give me the real reason you wanted to see me tonight.”
His eyes in the mirror’s reflection hold me in place. I stare back at myself, bent over his table, with him fondling my breast with one hand and holding the tattoo gun in the other.
“Tell me, Aurora.”
Tell him and bare my truth?
Do I have a choice? Probably not. I think if I kept quiet, he’d know anyway and try to tease it out of me so he could hear me say it.
He wants to hear me confess that my walls of defense have come crashing down around me and all I want is him.
I’m not the woman who walked into the Astoria months ago, handed him that contract, and told him that all of this was for her father.
The truth is it was, but it wasn’t.
It was for me.
“Say the words,” he whispers over my skin, unlocking the words from my mind.
“I want you,” I say. “I wanted you.”
“That’s exactly what I thought.” He turns me to face him. “Look back in the mirror, Goddess.”
I do and widen my eyes when my gaze lands on my reflection in the mirror and I see he’s tattooed the wordsMrs. Knight Graysonon my ass.
