Page 238 of His White Moonlight
His face twitched a little.“Do I get any reward for staying away?”
I fought not to smile but knew he smelled my amusement when he relaxed a little.
“Go sit in your chair.”
He frowned then slowly retreated to his desk.Once he was seated, I approached with a teasing smile on my lips.His pupils devoured his irises before I even set my hands on his shoulders.When I straddled his lap, he started shaking.
“The less you take, the more I’m willing to give,” I said, brushing my lips against his.“The more restrained you are, the more I want to provoke you.”
I kissed his bottom lip then his chin, nudging it so he tilted his head back.When I had access to his throat, I did the same thing he’d done to me the night before.His breathing turned ragged, and the chair creaked ominously.
“Should I stop?”I asked against his skin.
“No.”
The snarled word made me smile and bite his throat gently.
“Will you be okay while I’m at lunch with Mom?”
“No.”
I bit him again, and he groaned.
“Mark me, Wrenly,” he said harshly.
I sucked on his neck, and when I was finished leaving a small purple mark, I kissed his Adam’s apple.A second later, I was on my back on the desk with Bennett looming over me.His eyes were wild as they searched mine.
Warning bells went off in my head.
“Can we stop, please?If someone comes in…”
His mask slipped into place as he plucked me off the desk and turned me toward the bathroom.
“Go change.The bag is inside.”
I nodded and fled.
After splashing water on my face one-handed, I opened the bag I’d brought from home.
A note lay on top of the underwear I’d packed.
There will be a repeat of last night if you keep forgetting these.
My face flamed hot again as I quickly stripped and put on the new clothes.The tie at the back of my neck wasn’t happening on my own, but I knew better than to leave the bathroom without Mom present.So I waited.And waited.
Noon came and went.
“Are you hiding, Wrenly?”
“If I were, I’d pick a better place than your bathroom.”
“You’re supposed to meet Mom by the elevator.”
I made a face in the mirror then opened the door.
“Can you please tie my shirt without making me smell like we were just making out?”
“But we were just making out.”
