Misled(29)

She moaned, sucking him so hard, trying to drain him. When he swayed, she pulled out of him and supported his hips with the tight clasp of her hands.

Derek pulled her head away from him roughly, still jetting his come and he lifted her up and impaled her in one brutal thrust. As soon as her heated cunt wrapped around him, Sable stiffened in orgasm.

He watched her, startled and awed as the spasms of her climax sucked his cock just as powerfully as her mouth had. The sex was amazing, fantastic, but it faded in significance compared to the way she looked at him. Like she loved him.

Driven by a frenzy of adoration and lust, he lifted her body until just the tip of his dick speared her creamy opening and then he thrust her down onto him. Over and over he lifted and impaled her, claiming her, marking her, flooding her with his come.

She writhed on his cock and in his hands, screaming his name and he showed her no mercy, pounding her onto his erection until she came again. And still he wouldn’t stop fucking her.

His mind reached out to hers and she let him in. This time, she let him almost completely and he wrapped her in his sensual call. He felt the immediate effect it had on her, her body melting in his hands, her silken pussy gripping him like a vise. And he felt something else, something dark and very desperate, as if she were pulling away or hiding something. It wasn’t something he could take, not when he was lost in her, totally crazed for her.

Keep coming, he urged, determined to get past those last shields. That’s it, baby. Damn, that’s so good… Squeeze my cock with that tight cunt.

And she did, endlessly, her juices dripping down his straining thighs, her throat closed on a scream.

Derek kept her under his spell, refusing to spend himself again even though her pussy worked greedily to milk him. He kept his dick hard and kept pleasuring her with it, because her satisfaction was paramount, more important than his own.

In the part of his mind that still worked, he thought if he could sate her enough, she’d have to admit how she felt. He’d make her admit it.

She was so beautiful in his arms, her black hair damp with sweat, her pale skin flushed with passion, her lips swollen and shiny with his come, her lithe body impaled on his own. He’d never felt like this in his life—filled with his lover in his mind, his body, his soul, his heart.

Derek’s eyes widened.

His heart.

He loved Sable.

Joy, fierce and wild and sweet, welled within him and he longed to share it with her. I love you, he declared with every fiber of his being. Baby, I love you so much.

And deep inside her, he felt something die.

Chapter Seven

Sable heard Derek’s passionate declaration and felt his love shining brightly in her mind and in her soul. Her love for him rose in a fierce tide, threatening to overflow and wash them both away. But she bottled it up, hiding it, knowing that if Derek were to sense the depth of her affection, he would never let her go.

And he had to let her go.

Despite how much she wished they could be together now, she wouldn’t ruin his life for her own selfish desires. It would be wrong to take his love and hurt him with it, and that’s just what would happen if she didn’t take care of Marius now.

Having seen Derek in action over the last two years, she knew he was good at his job and that he loved it. Maybe more than he loved her. She was new in his life and he was used to living without her. She’d rather leave with him loving her, than lose him to a festering resentment in his heart because she’d cost him a livelihood that meant so much to him.

But for tonight he was hers and she would love his body until morning and his soul until forever, even though he would never know it.

She wrapped her arms around him and suckled the side of his throat, not biting or feeding, just loving. He released her slowly, allowing her legs to touch the cold metal floor. She could feel the full, heavy prod of his arousal brush against her hip and realized that he hadn’t come again. Her eyes lifted to his and her breath caught in her throat at the love she saw shining there. “Derek?” she queried, confused.

He kissed her forehead with such tenderness she wanted to cry. “I’m saving it for you, baby,” he told her as he led her, fingers linked, into the bedroom. “I intend to pleasure you all night.”

“You always do.”

Lifting her feet from the floor, Derek set her on the bed. Sable scrambled to her knees. As much as she wanted to love him, to hold him with tenderness and speak her heart, she couldn’t. In fact, it was best if she started to push him away now, so when she left tomorrow, it would not seem such a big surprise.

“I love you.” He cupped her face and kissed her long and slow. “I love everything about you.”

Her heart tightened painfully and she covered his mouth with her fingertips. “Please.”

“Please, what?”

“Don’t say that.”
