Confused, she drew her eyebrows together.

“Don’t make me repeat myself or you won’t like the results.”

She exhaled a shaky breath.

“Hold them all the way up, Petal. I’ve seen you do yoga, and you’re fit.”

Another reminder of their shared past.

“Stop stalling.”

Aware of how exposed she would be, she closed her eyes and did as he said.

“Very obedient.”

With her shallow breaths, her chest rose and fell quickly.

“Now open them wide.”

No one had ever demanded anything like this from her. Though some of her friends had shared their sexcapades with her, part of her had wondered if they were making it up.

“Gregorio…”

“Use your safe word.” He tipped his head to one side. “Or do as you’re told.”

“I…”

“I’m waiting.”

With a sigh, she spread herself for him.

“That’s my good girl.”

Kneeling, he lowered his head toward her pussy.

A whirlwind of desire surged through her as he skimmed his fingers up and down her inner thighs. Frantically, she dug her fingers into the sheets.

“You want this.”

“Yes.” Needed it, as much as oxygen. “But it’s—”

“Ask me for it.” With his gruff words, he cut off her automatic objection.“Fucking ask me.”

Was he determined to demolish all of her inhibitions?

“I’m waiting.”

“Please,” she whispered. “Please, Gregorio.”

“That’s not good enough. Be specific.”

He was far too demanding, too carnal. “I want to come.”

He feathered his touch a little closer to her pussy, but then he confoundingly pulled back.

“Tell me how you want me to do this.”

Scandalized by his statement, she gasped.
