Jonas eyes deepened in carnality as they lazed over my body making my pulse quicken. “You unclothed. I want to see you naked.”

I managed to hold onto my smile, as I cringed inside. What he wanted was not necessarily unreasonable. After all, if we had sex he would see everything anyway. Yet my mind thought about the bright factory lights of the space, and the gorgeous man on the bed next to me.

What was I going to do? I walked over to my halogen floor lamp and twisted the knob to a soft setting. I then walked over to main light in the bedroom.

“What are you doing?” Jonas removed his jacket and sat down on the side of my bed with his arms folded, his facial expression befuddled.

I flicked the light off, leaving us in a dim lit room. “I’m creating mood lighting.”

“Where I can’t see anything?” he said dryly.

I stared down at my bare toes. “It’s too bright in here for that,” I said meekly.

“Come over here,” Jonas commanded, his arms held out to me.

I reluctantly crossed the room.

Jonas pulled me closer to stand between his legs. “You’re face went sad again. What’s wrong?”

I’m afraid you will be repulsed by me. My mind started playing instances in my past that support that theory, but Jonas’s squeeze on my hand brought me back. “I’m not comfortable in full light, and, well, now you probably want to go. So….”

“Don’t tell me what I’m thinking,” Jonas said abruptly. “I want to understand. Is there a problem with me seeing your body? Do you have an ailment or….”

I shook my head. “I’m just uncomfortable….”

Jonas took my hands and studied me, then kissed my knuckles. “Okay. That’s fine, Lily.” He let go and lifted his suit jacket. I sat back on the bed and hunched over. He surprised me by picking up my backpack and garment bag. “David will be downstairs to take us back to the Waldorf.”

My eyes widened. “You still want me to come?”

“Of course. I’m eager, but not impatient,” he said, winking at me. “You’re uncomfortable, so I will wait for you.”

A small smile formed on my lips.He’ll wait. “Thanks.”

He leaned down and kissed my forehead. “I need to see, touch, and taste every inch of you. And I want you to want me to do that,” he said in a low voice.

His words were meant to titillate, and my body responded to them by sending pulses of pressure down to my core. A moan escaped my mouth as I squeezed my thighs together.

Jonas gasped, his gaze raking over me. He put down my things and gripped my waist to still me. “You need me, Lily?” He sat down on the bed and pulled me between his legs. “You need me to touch you, make you come?”

My breathing became labored as my heart hammered in my chest. My mind battled with my body as I struggled to think under the warmth of his hands, now on my hips. “I… we… should wait,” I said breathily.

“Why?” Jonas asked, his hands sliding against the fabric of my skirt to cup my ass just before he squeezed.

I could feel my pulse in my throat as I tried again to gain control of my senses. “It’s not right. It’s too soon….”

Jonas didn’t answer, but his breathing wavered as he eased a hand down the length of my skirt, then up between my legs where he gripped my inner thigh.

My head fell forward, meeting his. His touch on my thigh had me parting them more as a moan escaped my lips. “Jonas,” I rasped.

Jonas moved the fabric as he inched his hand a little higher. “Let yourself go,” he whispered.

My pulse was in my throat as heat coursed through my body. I could feel my arousal pool between my thighs. “Please,” I mumbled.

Jonas reached the apex of my thigh and stopped. “Open your blouse,” he ordered, his tone low and rumbled.

My hands trembled as my fingers fought to unfasten the three buttons on my suit, exposing my breasts in my white lace bra, my hard nipples pinched tight in the fabric.

Jonas let out a groan. “You didn’t want me to see you?” His tone was mockingly admonishing. He leaned in and pressed his head against my breasts and I gasped. “You’ve got me ready to come and I only saw your bra,” he said huskily.
