Chapter 26
Jude
The woman I misguidedly branded as boring is blowing my mind. And not in terms of outrageous sex. I’ve done all that, and then some. But making her come in an alleyway in Venice? That has me in a spin. My cock as hard as iron.
I’ve been semi hard all day. The underwear is a big turn on.
To know that it’s touching her skin, caressing that body.
The fact that she’s been wearing it since her husband left must be part of her healing process.
Something for her, for herself. Well, now it’s for me too. And I am fucking here for it.
I’m trying not to go too far, but she is testing my resolve, my patience.
And I am not a patient man. Once I make a decision, it’s game on until I get what I want.
Standing in this alleyway in Venice, those turquoise eyes blasting her desire at me, has hardened every area of my body and mind.
I want Emma Lincoln, and not just for the weekend. And I am going to get her.
The indoctrination of Emma is my purpose. To be honest, I don’t think it’ll take that much. She’s a willing participant in this game. She’s brave, honest, and open to me. The fact that she trusts me to look after her… well, one hundred percent bonus.
But I know I will look after her. I won’t break that trust.
“Let’s go back to the hotel. It’s just around the corner.
” I smirk at her as her eyes widen in surprise.
She thought we were miles away. Her phone must have had the hotel in as a destination, and she hadn’t realised we’d been heading that way all afternoon.
“We can negotiate a bit more and then I’ll feed you. ” I kiss her as she whimpers.
“I think I might have to pay a forfeit to get out of the deal.”
“Really?” I’m touching her again, my fingers playing with hers. Her hands seem to be the trigger for her. She starts to pant again.
“Well, maybe I’ll see how things work out. I can always push for an intermission.”
“Maybe. Or maybe I’ll insist you’re in breach of contract. Go for the maximum punishment available on the list. The biggest penalty.” My face is coy. My eyebrows waggle at her.
She gasps. “I said intermission, not a breach. I’m not repudiating the contract.” She smiles at me. She’s getting all technical, trying to distract me with legal terminology.
“Ah. But see, this contract is an aleatory one,” I hit back immediately.
“I act when a specified event happens. Did you not read the fine print? The minute details. You never absorbed my podcast, did you? Always read the fine print.” I’m shaking my head at her as I walk her back through the doors of the hotel.
“What’s the specified event?” She’s looking all confused.
“If I am denied your body, denied the access to give you one of the twenty orgasms I promised to deliver on today, I get access to any area of your body I want. Until I make you scream for mercy.” I hit her with my most intense expression, my eyes burn into her.
“And I definitely heard you say that you wanted out of the contract, which means no access for me. So my aleatory contract comes into effect.” Her brows are puckered in a what the fuck look.
I’m not even making sense. “Upshot. Me inside you any way I want. So get in that room and get that fucking dress off.” I let rip my most libidinous smirk, pointing for good measure, and smack her on the arse as she spins towards the door.
I laugh at her face. I’m not sure she knows what I said. Her mouth is opening and closing in shock. Then she starts to giggle as I crowd her at the door. I can’t get the keycard out of my jeans fast enough.
“This is a timed deal. If you can’t manage it, I can renege on it.” She’s smug now, cocking her hip at me.
“That was not in the fine print.”
She’s latched on to my game. “It was right next to my interlude.”
“Fuck your interlude. The only interlude you’re getting is the time it takes me to roll on a condom. And switch the butt plug that I am stuffing up your delectable arse to vibrate.”
That’s it, she’s checked out. Her jaw is on the floor, and her eyes are like saucers. Game set and match to me.
I lay and watch her snooze. I can’t stop grinning.
The squawk she let out when I eventually—with enough lube to fill a bathtub—got my little finger near her arse.
You’d have thought I was impaling her on my huge cock.
But as I’m finding out with Emma, she might not have done loads, but she’s up for giving it a go.
Her body responds to mine. Every nuance, it picks up on.
It’s a wonderland I want to visit again and again. Something new at every turn.
“Hey, Lincoln, we need to get in the shower. We’ve a table booked at the best Italian restaurant in Venice.”
I run my hands down her naked body. The scent of me and her is in the air. My nostrils flare as my cock hardens again. I can hardly get my fill. She gives a whimper as I push my hips in her direction.
“I surrender,” she whimper-giggles.
“Good. You can do it on your knees in the shower. I’m sure I’ll accept it unconditionally. And reset our terms until tomorrow, of course.”
Her eyes open at that. She likes that idea. The turquoise has deepened to almost a teal colour. So many beautiful blues and greens. I can hardly breathe when she looks at me like that.
She’s been desperate to taste me. Tried three times today, in fact. But I was too intent on making her come to let her touch me. I know she’ll be tender, as I’ve fucked her brains out all afternoon. But I’m greedy and ruthless. I can’t seem to get my fill.
Allowing her free rein is the only thing that may stay my libido going intergalactic. And stop my chaining her to our bed.
