“Well, just because you don’t leave your house, that doesn’t mean no one will see you. If you turn on your camera, I’ll be able to look at you right now.”
His husky laugh filled the line. “Tempting, but I’d hate to disappoint you.”
“Cole, you could never disappoint me.”
I knew it sounded like a line, but it was true. I didn’t care one iota what Cole looked like. He’d proven himself to be a sweet soul more than once, and the gentle intimacy of our conversation kept me fed. What more could a starving succubus ask for?
“Maybe another time. I’d much rather focus on you.”
“Okay then, tell me what you want tonight.”
“What book are you reading right now? Tell me about it so I can get a copy and read along. Then after, I want to watch you make yourself feel good.”
This was one of the things I enjoyed most about my time with Cole. He somehow made our transaction feel like a date. He made me feel respected, even when telling me he wanted to watch me get myself off. What a gentleman.
I lay across the bed, my body facing the camera. “Well, the book I just started is a historical romance about a wild viscount who has to hang up his rakish ways and settle down in a marriage of convenience.”
“Mmm, and does she end up taming him?”
Giggling, I nodded. “Over and over.”
“Show me how she did it,” he whispered, his voice wrapping me in a sensual haze.
The high I got from his pleasure was nearly better than what I’d feel from my own. Closing my eyes, I rolled onto my back and pressed my ass into the bed. This move was a favorite. It arched my spine and popped my tits up so they could see them before my hand began moving toward the juncture of my thighs.
“Fucking beautiful,” he said on a sigh.
“Will you touch yourself too?” I asked.
“No. This is all you, Merri.”
I pouted a little, not actually faking my disappointment. I’d get way more out of this exchange if he participated. Lust was great, but nothing filled me up quite like a partner’s climax.
My fingers were nearly to the waistband of my thong, my nipples hard, pussy wet from the sound of Cole’s voice.
“Tell me what to do, C?—”
The door burst open and the lights went out, casting the room in near-perfect darkness.
“Grab her,” a gruff British voice snapped.
“Wha—” Strong hands hauled me off the bed before I could get the word out.
Something soft and sweetly scented covered my mouth and nose, making me instantly woozy. My eyes closed, and sleep began to overtake me, but not before warm lips at my ear whispered, “Sorry, Red. You’re coming with us.”
Chapter
Three
MERRI
“Did I tell you how beautiful you look tonight?” Jimmy murmured as he nuzzled my neck in the hotel elevator.
I giggled and turned my body into his embrace. “You’ve said it like a hundred times, James Harris. But you can tell me again, at least one more time.”
He cupped my face and pulled me in for a sweet kiss before the elevator stopped and another passenger joined us. Now that we weren’t alone, my handsome boyfriend adjusted our position so I was in front of him, his hands around my waist. The walls of the elevator were mirrored because Jimmy had pulled out all the stops for us on prom night. This was special. Monumental really.
“Look at us,” he murmured in my ear as the other passenger exited and the doors slid closed again. “The perfect couple.”
