night,” she said, irritation in her voice.
“Then what are we doing here now?” he asked.
“We were about to have sex,” she grumbled.
He went stock-still for a moment, but Stormy didn’t see the warning in his anger. She grumbled something else and Cooper shot to his feet.
“Is it sex you want, Stormy?” he demanded.
Now she was understanding the full extent of his anger. Her eyes rounded.
“Not when you’re ticked off,” she said, but her breathless excitement belied her words.
“If it’s a night of sex you want, that I can give you.”
Leaning down, he easily lifted her up and then began moving toward the staircase.
“Cooper, what are you doing?” She gasped as she hit his chest. “Put me down!”
“Gladly,” he said, anger and passion mixing within him. He made it to his room in record time and unceremoniously dropped her on the bed.
“Caveman,” she snapped, her voice still a bit breathless.
“Oh baby, you haven’t seen anything yet.”
And then the talking stopped as he joined her on the bed.
CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR
Stormy should have been furious with Cooper but all she felt at this moment was excitement. The need in his eyes was something she’d never seen before in a man, and she wanted him, but hell would freeze over before she would admit it.
“Do you like games, Stormy?” he asked as he straddled her on the bed, holding her arms above her head.
Her breath was coming out in pants and she almost hated him for making her want him so badly.
“I think you’re the one who likes to play,” she finally replied when he didn’t move.
“That’s right, baby. I do love games,” he said, his lips turning up. “And I win every single time I play.”
It took a moment for those words to process, and when they did a shiver rushed through her. She wasn’t sure if it was excitement or fright. But Stormy knew beyond a doubt that if they didn’t have sex very soon, she was going to perish for sure.
Suddenly, he leaned across the bed and reached over to his nightstand. She couldn’t see what he was doing, but then she sensed what felt like silk being placed around her wrists, and then she couldn’t move her arms. Next, a cloth was being placed over her eyes, and the already dim room went dark.
“What’s going on, Cooper?”
“We’re playing, Stormy,” he replied.
When Cooper moved, leaving her vulnerable on the bed, she twisted to get out of her binds. This was taking a turn she wasn’t too sure about.
“Are you too afraid to play now?”
The rush of air was against her ear as he whispered the words. Then his hand began trailing down her throat and over the swell of her breasts, making her core heat to molten levels.
Stormy could lie to him, tell him that she didn’t want to do this anymore, but her body would betray her. As his fingers swept across her nipples, they hardened painfully, and her back arched as a low groan ripped from her.
“I think you love this game,” he murmured, and then he was atop her body again, and even if she hated the control he had, she couldn’t deny how much she wanted this man to take her.
Still, she wouldn’t tell him that. Even if she had to continue biting her lip to keep from speaking.
Her erect nipples reached for him as his fingers smoothed down her quivering flesh. And when his tongue suddenly swiped the area he’d been touching, she did cry out, her body nearing an orgasm without him even moving below her waistline.
Then he was lying on top of her, and she felt his thickness pressed against her opening. She pushed her hips up, telling him she was done with foreplay, that she wanted him inside her. But Cooper didn’t give her what she wanted.
She was close to begging him for fulfillment when his lips were upon hers, his tongue thrusting inside her mouth the way she wanted his body to. He took ownership of her mouth, possessing her exactly how she wanted to be possessed.
And while he kissed her, his hand trailed down her hip. He leaned over, and then without warning, thrust two fingers deep inside her while his thumb rubbed against her swollen nub.
“Tell me you want more than my fingers, Stormy,” he demanded before taking her bottom lip between his teeth and nipping it.
She was silent, shaking her head, refusing to give him what he wanted.
“You either tell me you want me to fuck you or this stops.
