Epilogue #3
“I should get to the club before I go home to change.” I clambered off his lap and straightened my clothes, not wanting to seem like we were doing exactly what I was trying to avoid.
He lifted a brow in challenge, his eyes sparking with delight as they roved over my professional ensemble.
Spade loved me in my normal clothes, but there was something about the professional outfits that made him want to make me disheveled.
He liked it when I looked like I’d just been fucked, as if it was a way of claiming me in public.
“No.” I lifted a finger in warning and stumbled back a step as he rose from the bench like he was just issued a challenge. “Spade.”
“Sugar,” he drawled, his lithe, muscular body poised as though he was about to pounce.
What the hell was with these men today?
I crossed my arms over my chest, cocking a hip in challenge, but it didn’t deter him. He chuckled as he closed the distance and wrapped me up in his arms, my body immediately melting under his.
“You don’t want to run from me, sugar.” He nipped my nose, grinning like the smug asshole he was as I blinked away the haze.
“Why is that?” My voice quivered with desire as I rubbed my thighs together because I definitely knew what would happen.
“I’ll catch you,” he said, leaning in so his lips brushed mine with every word. “And that pretty outfit of yours will be stained with grass and dirt after I fuck you into the earth.”
I exhaled a shuddered breath, my body begging me to give in, and he knew it. His eyes sparkled with triumph as he scanned my face. Both of us knew that if he persisted, my willpower would crumble.
“I’ll see you tonight, sugar.” He pressed his lips to mine, the scorching kiss promising I wouldn’t be getting any sleep tonight before he let me go.
“Mmhmm.” I didn’t trust myself to say anything more than that as I pulled my shoulders back and strode to the car, ignoring his laughter as I climbed in like I wasn’t still trembling for his touch.
I locked the doors and stuck out my tongue, not missing the hunger that sparked in his violet depths as he stalked toward me.
I put the car in reverse and sped out of the parking lot, knowing he’d get me back for that tenfold tonight.
I wished I could put the car in park and see what the two of us could get up to in my back seat instead.
Icooled down on the drive to the club, a plan forming as I had time to recuperate from Kellan and Spade’s teasing touches. As soon as I pulled into the parking lot, I slid two pairs of cuffs from the center console and slipped them into my purse.
I used my key and opened the front door before closing it behind me. The club was so different in the daylight, like the flashing neon lights and crowded dance floor added to the atmosphere.
“Hey, Lena.” I waved as she spun on her heel, her black hair twirling around her as a wide smile stretched across her face. “Is Merrick around?”
“He just went into a meeting with Sebastian, but I can tell him you’re here when he comes out if you want to wait for him in his office.
” She placed down the bottle that she had just been organizing.
She got a job here after she started coming to self-defense classes and learned that Merrick was a part-owner here.
It helped that she knew she had people here whom she could trust. Even Eve worked here on fight nights since the bar was under renovation right now.
“That’s perfect. Thanks. I’ll see you later.” I strode to the back offices, already knowing Merrick would realize I was here as soon as I walked past from the clicking of my heels, so I didn’t have much time.
I hurried past Sebastian’s office and raced to Merrick’s.
Thankfully he’d let me help him design it so it was sleek and modern, with black leather chairs and a smooth slate desk.
He still worked on his cars in his free time and opened a new garage in town, but he was a booked and busy businessman with a growing number of employees.
I helped him hire the staff he needed to save himself time now that I was a town councilor.
I pulled out the handcuffs and secured one to each of the arms of his office chair just as the door squeaked open behind me. I swiveled toward him just as his face lit up at the sight of me. It almost made me regret what I was about to do. Almost.
“Little devil,” he said as I met him at the side of his desk.
He wrapped me up in his arms, his lips crashing on mine like it had been a lifetime since we last saw each other, not just a couple of hours.
He lulled me under his spell as his tongue delved between my lips, stroking mine seductively.
With the small fraction of my brain still functioning, I managed to turn us enough to push him back into the chair.
He flopped back, hands catching himself on the armrests as intrigue glittered in his hazel eyes.
Perfect.
I undid a few buttons on my blouse until it revealed my lace bra underneath.
“Little devil,” he purred, the deep vibration sending a jolt of electricity down my spine as if just the sound of his voice lit me up like a live wire.
I shivered as I leaned forward, my breasts practically in his face, distracting him enough that he didn’t notice the metal cuffs banding around his wrists until I backed away and he tried to grab for me.
“Giana.” His warning growl was just as intoxicating because I knew exactly how he would punish me for this later. And I knew I’d love every second of it.
I slid onto Merrick’s desk and leaned back, spreading my legs and letting him see the black lace thong covering my soaked pussy.
“Fuck.” His eyes rolled back as he tried to reach for me again in vain. His jaw ticked, apparently not liking it when he wasn’t the one in control.
My skirt bunched around my hips as I pulled it up and tugged the waistband of my panties down my legs one inch at a time. He jerked forward suddenly, his hands clenching into fists as the cuffs kept him in place.
“I am going to have fun punishing you for this later,” he growled, his hazel eyes fogging with lust as I slipped the lace over my heels and dropped the fabric in his lap.
I grinned as his throat bobbed, his attention fixed on my core as I swirled my fingers around my clit. The friction sent a jolt of pleasure straight to my core, and I didn’t hold back my moan as I pushed two fingers into my tight channel.
The cuffs rattled, his biceps bulging like he was considering wrenching the arms off the chair just to get to me. I pulled my hand back and smirked as I lifted it to my lips.
“Don’t you dare,” he said, the deep rumble of his voice sending tingles of desire slithering up my spine.
Relenting, I leaned over him, letting him get a good view down the front of my blouse before I pressed my fingers still slick with arousal to his lips.
He sucked on them greedily, his tongue lapping up every drop like he was showing me just what he could do if I freed him.
“Nice try.” I nipped the shell of his ear as I pulled my digits free and hopped off the desk.
“Giana.” A hint of panic tinged his voice as I straightened my skirt and used my phone camera to make sure my lipstick wasn’t too smudged.
“Yes, honey?” I blinked in faux innocence as I did up the buttons on my blouse.
“You’re not going to just leave me here like this, are you?” His eyes narrowed like he was daring me to try.
I sighed and dug in my purse, pretending to search for the key I knew I didn’t have.
His shoulders slumped as an eager gleam sparked to life in his eyes.
He played it cool as if I didn’t know that if I let him out now, I’d be bent over this desk, his hand spanking my ass until I begged him to sink his cock into me.
Nope. I wasn’t falling for it this time.
“Oops, looks like I forgot the key.” I shrugged and whistled as I turned for the exit.
“Giana,” he shouted as I opened the door, and he rolled after me. I held the door open until he was only a few feet from me and then closed it on him.
“See you tonight, sweetie.” I giggled as he cursed on the other side of the door, the handle jiggling as he tried and failed to pry it open with the little leverage he had.
“Do I even want to ask?” Sebastian cocked a brow, his lips twitching with amusement.
“He might need some help getting out of some handcuffs, but I’d let him stew if I were you,” I said conspiratorially.
“I heard that,” Merrick shouted through the door, and I couldn’t help the laugh that burst free as I strode down the hall.
“I hope you know you just signed his opponent’s death warrant,” Sebastian called after me, and I winked over my shoulder. Oh, I knew, and it only made me that much more excited to see my man in action.
Thank you so much for reading Giana's story!
I hope you loved these characters as much as I did.
