After a minute or two, she sucked in a breath and her eyelids blinked open. Her pupils widened as she focused on my face and a small smile turned the corners of her lips.

“God, I love you,” I gasped, curling her into my arms.

“Is he really dead?” she whispered.

I nodded, my days-old stubble catching in her hair. “He is. He really is.” I had to repeat it aloud because I could hardly believe it. The two biggest figures in my life until now were gone. “Sinclair and Ossian are dead.”

Her soft breath brushed against my neck. “Where are we?”

I laughed lightly. “I finally got you in my bed.”

She pulled back and looked around. “This is your room?”

I smiled. “Yeah.”

“Wow.” She took in the enormous chandelier, baby grand piano that I loved but never played, the Georgian writing desk and antique French armoire. “So, this is where the magic happens?”

I pushed my fingers through her hair and turned her to face me. “If you want it to.”

Blood pumped into her cheeks and her lips parted. “I can’t believe it’s all over,” she whispered. “How do you feel?”

I sighed. “It’s not all over yet. Iris is about to find out and we have no idea how she’ll react.”

“She’ll be devastated, surely.”

“I’m not so sure about that. It was hard to tell how close they truly were. Sinclair kept her away from a lot of business – I know she resented that. I never saw them laugh together. Come to think of it, I never saw them laugh at all.”

“When is she coming back here?” Her voice wavered slightly.

“She’ll make a move the second she hears she’s lost a Chairman and an heir. So, I’d expect her around mid-afternoon.”

Her eyes roamed my face. “Does that give you enough time to do what you need to do?”

I grinned. “What might I need to do?”

“I don’t mean that,” she scoffed, patting my arm playfully.

I caught her hand and pulled her towards me. “I do.”

Her eyelids fluttered shut as I drew her lips onto mine and kissed her hard and slow. An unbound moan drifted across her tongue to mine and I felt the vibration in my cock. I was suddenly, irrepressibly turned on. I placed both hands beneath her arms and lifted her onto her knees, then unzipped her sweatshirt, gasping into her mouth at the feel of bare skin under my fingertips. She unbuttoned my shirt as I rolled her yoga pants down over her hips and thighs. Our lips parted just long enough for us to kick off the rest of our clothes, then we crashed into each other, all tongues, teeth and roaming hands.

“Rupert…” she gasped. I stroked my thumb along her bottom lip, letting her nibble and suck while I played with her clit. “Is this bad?”

“No baby,” I replied, dipping to take a sharp nipple between my teeth. “This is good. This is very, very good.”

“Oh!” Her back arched pushing her soft breast into my face as I sucked. “I mean… I…”

I smiled between licks and kisses and tormented her with a finger rimming her entrance. “Yes…?”

“I mean… we’re… Shit, I’m so turned on, but… there’s a dead man in the next tower, and…”

“An alive one right here who’s about to make you come hard?”

Her mouth fell open and I scooped her up. I carried her two strides to the window and flipped her around, pressing her hands to the glass. It stretched from the floor to the twenty-foot high ceiling, giving us a view of the island being lit up by the rising sun. Her back pressed into my chest as she panted softly, anticipating my next move.

I tucked my hand under her right knee and hooked it up to her waist. I guided her foot to the wall, anchoring her leg at just the right height. My left hand stroked round her middle and cupped her breasts, massaging them gently, until I could feel them throb. In sharp contrast to the rush of undressing her, I took my long, slow time pulling her undone. I guided my cock through her spread legs into her pussy, bent my knees and straightened as I buried myself deep inside her. She gasped loudly. I took her right hand in mine and brought it to my lips. I sucked on her fingers deep and hot, coating them in saliva, then I lowered them to her clit and rubbed the moisture over her nub.

Together we massaged her as I pumped decadently into her pussy. Her head fell back onto my shoulder and a series of incoherent words and phrases slurred from her lips beautifully. I pressed my lips to the corner of her mouth, lapping them up. I wanted to devour her entirely.
