“Stop,” I whispered, begging. “Stefano, please, stop.”
He didn’t stop.
He didn’t care about the same consequences I feared.
This man wanted what he wanted, and he’d get it.
Even if he had to die for it.
He smashed a hand over my mouth to shut me up and increased the intensity of his circling fingers.
My knees weakened.
Panic stole away my breath—or had he done that?
I didn’t know.
Between the lack of oxygen and knowing we might get caught at any moment made every sensation more intense.
“Say the words,” he whispered into my ear.
I shook my head, tears streaming down my cheeks. Tears from being so overwhelmed, so wracked with emotion and stimulation all at once.
“Give me what I want, Val. Then I’ll let you come on my hand,” he promised, the evil fucker.
I tried to block the sensations, to listen past his voice to the movement on the other side of the stall door.
“Say it,” he growled only loud enough for me to hear.
No, I wouldn’t do it. I made myself focus on the footsteps of the woman inside the restroom, on the thundering of my heartbeat. To hold back my orgasm, I willed my muscles to tighten and not release.
I’d gotten this far. I couldn’t give up now.
Sweat trickled down my back. Heat blistered my skin in waves. I fought to steady my breathing.
Stefano took the back of my head into his hand, pressing me against him as he pushed my body to its limit.
“You’re shaking, Valentina,” he breathed at my ear. “How much agony can you withstand? How long before your body gives in to my command?”
Fucking sadist, he was right.
Every inch of me trembled as I struggled to prevent release.
Why did he have to make this so difficult for me?
Well, because he knew it made me want him more.
Yes, I wanted him. I wanted to come. I needed to come.
I wanted to bathe in the bliss Stefano could give me.
But I couldn’t let him win this time, so I used everything I had to hold on a little longer.
Then those fucking heels clicked across the floor again—and it seemed like the woman headed straight for us.
The danger of her discovering us increased my desire.
It intensified my urgent need to come.
