Exposure - Kelly Moran Page 0,59

twist at her nape, exposing the long column of her neck. Even now, he couldn't wait to unleash the knot and wrap her strands around his fist.

She stopped and raked her gaze over him. "I don't need vibrating panties. You in a tux is orgasmic enough." The carnal look in her eyes as she stepped closer had his pants too damn tight.

"Stop, baby. We're going to be late."

Pressing her body to his, she grinned and grabbed his ass. Hard. "The sooner we leave, the sooner we can get back." She nuzzled his neck and licked a path to his ear.

His hands fisted, wanting to touch. "Have mercy, Raven."

The charity function was in a ski lodge hotel on the northern tip of Anchorage. People were bustling about and socializing as she and Noah walked into the open lobby. A massive fireplace was lit in a corner, the inlaid stones traveling up to the thirty foot ceiling. Exposed beams and crystal chandeliers added to the rustic chic d茅cor. Several round tables were scattered through the room, covered in white linen. The centerpieces were pinecones in a lead glass bowl, dusted with silver glitter. A bar was set up on the far wall with an amazing ice sculpture of a whale's fin.

"Geez, Noah. You really go all out." She liked that it wasn't pretentious. Classy, not pompous. Her shoulders relaxed. She took a glass of champagne from a passing waiter. "So, what goes down at this shindig?" Having not attended his event before, she didn't know what to expect. In the past, she'd donated money on behalf of the gallery and waited for him to tell her about it the next day.

"There's a table in the back with silent auction donations. After dinner, people dance, I say a few words, and hope to get home before the smile freezes on my face." He slipped an arm around her waist and pulled her to him, his other hand dipping into his pocket. "You give me even more incentive to get home."

A slight pulsing shot between her thighs, vibrating her core. She drew in a sharp breath and leaned on him as her panties grew wet. The sensation stopped as soon as it started, leaving her knees weak and her humming with need. This was so unfair. Fun, but unfair.

"Payback's a bitch, Noah," she murmured. "I can torture you for hours." Leaning in, she whispered in his ear. "I'll kiss my way down your chest and take you in my mouth so deep you hit my throat. Then I'll stop to lick circles around your tip. Can you feel me humming around your cock?" He tensed and sucked a harsh breath through his nose. "And my hands? Oh the places they can roam--"

Someone slapped his back, making him jump. "Noah! How are you?"

Noah swiftly drew her in front of him, hand on her shoulder and erection against her ass. "Jack, good to see you as well. How's the lumber business?"

"Can't complain." As an older gentleman in his sixties, he had a nice smile and a shock of white hair. "And who's this lovely creature?"

"I'm sorry," Noah rasped. "Where are my manners? This is Raven Crowne. She owns Elements Gallery down in Tartok Crest. I'm lucky to have her as my date for tonight."

She held out her hand. "Nice to meet you."

His handshake was firm. "You, too. The wife and I were in your gallery last year. Beautiful building."

"Thank you." She smiled and covertly stepped back against Noah's straining erection to tease him again. His hand gripped her shoulder hard. "You own a lumber yard?" When their guest started yapping, she bent slightly, pretending to adjust the strap of her shoe, thrusting her ass even more firmly to Noah's crotch. And wow, he grew thicker as he inhaled a sharp breath.

So, so much fun.

After Jack walked away, Noah leaned over her shoulder, breath hot against her ear. "If you move from in front of me before I get control of this hard-on, I'll set the switch for your thong to go off every five seconds." A fast vibration of her clit punctuated his point.

Squeezing her thighs together to ebb the throb, she almost regretted the tease. Almost. "In case you were wondering, I'm drenched right now. All for you. I can't wait to get you between my legs so you can feel just how wet."

He cursed under his breath, fingers tightening on her shoulders. "You drive me insane."

"Likewise." She smiled, deciding to have mercy on him,
