He stared up at me as if trying to see inside my soul. “No… Looking back I was out of control and trying to replace emotions with sex.” He traced his finger along the side of my face. “I finally discovered the difference.”

I narrowed my eyes deliberately. “Are you trying to sweet talk me to get in my panties?”

His hands cupped my ass cheeks through my yoga pants. “I don’t think your panties would fit me, but I definitely want in that sexy body of yours.”

Pouting, I stared down at my expanded breasts and small tummy.

His hands slid down to hold my legs as he stood up. I gasped as he pinned me against the wall, his forehead pressed to mine. “Get rid of whatever fucking thought put that pout on your face. I don’t lie and I don’t pay compliments to people to make them feel better. If I tell you that you’re gorgeous and sexy, it’s because I mean it. When I tell you that I want to sink so deep inside you that I don’t know where I stop and you begin, it’s the truth.” His lips hovered over mine, tempting me. “And when I tell you that you belong to me, it’s because I own every single part of you and you’re mine.”

His lips crashed into mine, pushing my head against the wall. I moaned and gripped him closer to me, needing this contact to keep me grounded.

I could live or die in his kisses that drugged me with the heady essence of Xavier. Nothing else in this world created the sensation that his lips did. They had the power to elevate me to ecstasy or destroy me.

“Zee,” I muttered, my fingers lodging in his hair.

“Tell me what you need.”

My eyes fluttered open. “I need to feel like I did in The Midnight Rooms, when there was only you and me in the darkness. When we were just Cas and Zee without any cares or worries.” Life had been so simple then when it was just two strangers who’d found something special.

“I’m not driving us downtown tonight, but I can give you that experience right here.” He dropped me to my feet. “Strip.”

My eyebrow arched.

“Take off your clothes before I turn off the lights.” His hand around my neck lifted my head up. “Then get on the bed with your ass in the air.”

I tried to swallow but his hand constricted.

His face moved toward mine until his breath fanned my cheek. “You want me to be that man from The Midnight Rooms? Then you need to understand I crave control down there. The only woman who gets the man who makes love is my wife. Everyone in The Midnight Rooms gets the Dom.”

I blinked and my panties felt too tight.

“Strip and get on the bed,” he repeated, pressing his lips to mine while his eyes bored into me.

My trembling fingers went to the front of my top and Xavier stepped back to watch me with his arms crossed over his wide chest.

“I thought this was meant to be in the dark,” I snarked.

“Nah, baby. This bit is just for me.” The lecherous grin he shot me made my panties combust.

Swallowing the remnants of my pride, I slowly unbuttoned my blouse and let it fall to the floor. When I saw the heat in his eyes, I began to perform, bending over to take my shoes off with my back to him, and flicking my hair over my shoulder.

His intake of breath told me he approved.

When I was left in my bra and panties, I slowly turned to face him. “I used to wear these down into The Midnight Rooms.”

“Take them off,” he said, his voice husky.

Biting my bottom lip, I unhooked my bra and let the straps fall down my arms and onto the floor. I hooked my thumbs into the side of my panties and pushed them down to pool at my feet.

“Do I get to see you naked?” I enquired.

His T-shirt was hauled over his head and his training pants shoved down. He didn’t bother with a seductive striptease. His massive erection pointing in my direction was enough to make my thighs clamp together and my pussy to spasm in need.

A few days of abstinence and I was ready to get on my hands and knees and beg him to take me. His eyes darkened when I did sink to my knees in front of him, just as I’d seen those women in the dungeons do. His hand trailed through my hair and tilted my head up.

“Are you sure you want darkness? Because right now you’re the most beautiful sight I’ve ever seen.”

Without him asking, I gripped the base of his cock and licked from root to tip, my tongue flicking his head. Gone were the days that I hated when a man wanted a blowjob. I’d even insisted they wear a condom if they wanted a birthday treat. His hips moved as I took him as deep as possible, using my hands to work the remainder of his length.
