“I don’t think anyone has ever called me that before,” I said.
He smiled. “Well, that’s just not right. Just look at you.” He licked his lips in an exaggerated manner, making me giggle. “You’re good enough to eat.”
He made a show of pretending to take a bite out of my neck, tickling me when I felt his rough stubble pressed against me.
I squirmed in his lap, laughing and trying to get away.
He tightened his hold on me.
Somehow, we ended up with me lying back on the bed with Mikhail on top of me. His eyes were light today.
I didn’t think I had ever seen him so playful.
He ran a single finger down the side of my face before reaching my lips, tracing the outline of it softly.
My breath caught.
I wondered if he would kiss me again.
I knew my eyes were practically asking for it.
Slowly, he moved down and pressed his lips against mine. I closed my eyes and wrapped my arms around his neck, just as I felt his tongue come out and swipe my bottom lip. I opened my mouth without prompting and Mikhail deepened the kiss.
I moaned in his moan, wanting so much more.
I had only kissed Mikhail and Damien so far, and they both kissed differently. Whereas Mikhail liked to take his time, teasing me and driving me crazy, there was something frantic and urgent about the way Damien kissed me. Like he was afraid I would disappear if he didn’t kiss me hard enough.
I couldn’t decide which one I liked more, but right now, I would have given up almost anything for Mikhail to prolong the kiss.
I tightened my hold on him when I felt him pull away, following his lips with my own.
He groaned and pressed another hard kiss against me before he tugged my arms away. I opened my eyes and looked up at him.
“I don’t think it’s a good idea to continue.”
“Why not?”
“Because I don’t know if I can stop, and I know you’re sore from last night.”
I looked away.
I was sore.
But I didn’t think I wanted to stop.
Mikhail sat up and pulled me back on his lap.
He was smiling a little when he got a good look at my face. “Don’t look like that,kotyonok, or I’ll tease you and won’t let you come.”
I gasped in outrage and his smile widened.
“There is something important I want to talk to you about, so listen to me.”
I looked up and met his eyes to show I was paying attention.
He brought his hands down to my waist, his fingers gliding absently over the skin there. I didn’t think he was even aware he was doing it.
“Damien and Nikolay are going to take you to eat dinner outside this room tonight, okay? You’ll be in front of a lot of people, and I need you to do everything Damien and Nikolay tell you to do, understand? Even if you don’t want to do it.”
