“Well, at least now I know what he meant by grab something nice after work for tonight.” I hated how the card felt like a few hundred pounds in my pocket. I hated having access to basically unlimited funds through Nikolai.

My dear husband was insistent I was given a black card to his funds, not that I planned on using it. Husband or not, I didn’t want to dip into his finances unless necessary. I made good money on my own, and it wouldn’t feel right spending money I didn't earn by my own hands.

~*~

For the fifth time, I checked my reflection in the full-length mirror again, smoothing my hands over the white sequined silk dress that stopped a little below midthigh. Nikolai wasn’t home yet, having to deal with business as usual. So, I was left to my lonesome self to get ready for our dinner date tonight.

“Tonight’s the night.” I told myself.

Much to our disappointment, we never did get to have sex or do anything sexual in nature that night two days ago. By the time Nikolai got home, it was so late I was already deep asleep. The next day when I woke, Nikolai was already gone. Once again, when he had returned home at night, I was deep asleep. So, we were determined to make this first date night work with a happy ending—the one where we’d end up in bed naked.

The sounds of heavy footsteps approaching our shared bedroom made me turn my attention to the door. “Sorry, things ran later than I expected, just give me a moment to wash u—” Nikolai stood there with a stunned face, not even trying to hide the fact he checked me out with his hungry eyes after he stopped midsentence. “Maybe I should cancel our reservations and eat you up instead.” He said with a cheeky grin as he approached me.

The way his hungry eyes filled with a dark lust made my stomach tighten with anticipation of what’s to come later. He practically stripped me with his eyes, no doubt he would make good on it with his hands later.

I couldn’t deny the burning desire in his eyes, and I couldn’t deny the same fire that consumed me. I’d seen my fair share of men’s lustful eyes, but seeing them from Nikolai made me soaking wet. I had never wanted a man so badly in my life, nor had any other man had such an effect on me. I wanted him to do all kinds of sinful things to me. Whatever reserved inhibitions I had were thrown out the window in his presence alone.

Even before our marriage, I had desired him. There were many nights when I would pleasure myself with thoughts about him, how his deep voice would spew the dirtiest things into my ear while he’d take me like an animal.

Blinking my thoughts away, I mentally slapped myself to snap out of it, “I’m just dessert, you wouldn’t be satisfied with just me.” I tried to keep firm, but those dark eyes of his were making my knees weak. I could already feel myself aching with need.

“You have to give yourself more credit,lisichka.” Nikolai chuckled as he reached out and ran his hand up my arm to my neck, grabbing me by it and bringing my body flushed against his before anchoring me by my hip with his other hand.

“What does that mean?Lisichka.You’ve been calling me that a lot lately.” I couldn’t have easily Googled a translation because I had no idea how to even spell the word. Then none of his brothers wanted to answer me when I asked, telling me I should ask Nikolai instead.

“It means little fox because you, my darling, are a little vixen.” His lips were right there, just barely an inch away. “But I mean it, you need to give yourself more credit. You are more than just dessert, you are a whole feast, my feast, and only mine.”

Then there was that snap.

A moan clawed out of me when I felt the surge of pleasure from the feeling of his lips against mine. “Finally.” I giggled against his lips before resuming the heated kiss.

Damn, maybe I should have just kissed him that first morning and taken the punishment. I thought his touch was dangerous, but his lips on mine brought a new kind of fire to my body I didn’t think was possible. The desire I felt for this man right now was otherworldly. I wanted him to lay his claim to me so badly, to show me what other things his mouth was capable of.

Moaning, I gripped at the front of his shirt, anchoring him to me, afraid if I didn’t then he’d pull away fully. The feeling of his strong tongue sweeping against my bottom lip made me giggle with delight as I parted my lips for him. His dominating tongue was enough to make me shudder as I weakly attempted to fight back using mine. Fighting back against him was pointless, but it was a fun try.

The feeling of his hand on my hip moving didn’t go unnoticed because it felt like a trail of fire wherever he touched. He hasn’t even spanked me, yet I could already feel the burn of his hand on my ass cheek as he gripped and molded it in his hands. “Can’t wait to watch this pretty ass of yours bounce while I take you from behind.” His words should have brought another moan out from me, or a string of teasing words.

Instead, I found myself chilled to the bone with unease as I looked up at him with wary and far out eyes. I couldn’t control it, those cold and haunting thoughts flooded my system before I knew it.

Maybe this was a mistake. What if this turns out like last time? After all, this marriage is more so for business than love. Maybe it was silly of me to think this could go beyond some marriage of convenience.
