CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE
OLIVIA
I didn’t think he could get any hotter.
I was wrong .
Our first night together was just a glimpse of what he can do behind the set of drums sitting in front of him. His fingers flick the sticks and move them with ease as his body moves with the beat. I watch the muscles of his tattooed arms flex with each movement as my eyes stay focused on him.
He finds me in the crowd, and a sexy smile plays on his lips as he winks at me. My heart is in my throat as our eyes keep locking together.
Savi sidles up to me and leans over to speak in my ear so I can hear above the music. “He’s good, isn’t he? I’ve always loved to watch him play.”
“He’s amazing,” I whisper, unable to look away as he does a brief solo. My body starts to move to the music, and before long, I’m pulled into a circle with the girls as we dance to the upbeat song. I know the words by heart as I sing along with them.
Even through the crowd, I feel his eyes on me. My hips move and sway as I get lost in the drumbeat that I seek out specifically in the music, wanting to feel the same thing he feels every time he plays.
Our eyes keep meeting as they continue to play a few more songs. With each passing minute, I feel our energy intensify between us. It’s like the buildup of the perfect storm just waiting to come unleashed.
As they finish up their last song, his eyes burn into mine. He gives a slight flick of his head toward the direction of his back office, and I remember what he said earlier. I didn’t understand what he meant when he mentioned that we both would need it, but I do now.
“I’ll be right back. I’m going to go check on the wine supply and make sure everything has been brought out,” I say, reaching over close to Lyla’s ear.
“Nice excuse,” she laughs. “The eye fuck between the two of you has completely given you away,” she grins.
I’m on such a high right now that I don’t even care that she can see right through my lie. I grin back at her as I make my way to the back office. It’s quieter back here as the music fades away slightly.
Opening his office door, I step inside and turn on the small lamp on his desk, leaving a soft glow about the room. Memories of the day when I first came back here enter my mind as I run my hand along the wooden desk. It seemed like ages ago that we first met, instead of mere weeks.
I hear the door open and the soft click of a lock.
Movements from behind tell me he's removing his shirt as the black fabric hits the floor by my feet.
My heart speeds up as I feel him come up behind me.
His breathing is jagged as he presses his hard body against mine.
Leaning my head back on his bare chest, I close my eyes to the feel of hard granite against my backside.
“That was the most intense set of my life,” he breathes next to my ear, causing a shiver to run down my body.
His firm grip on my stomach keeps me locked in place as he presses further into me.
“It’s always such an adrenaline rush to be on stage, but to see you in the crowd and watch your body move to music I create is unlike anything I’ve ever felt. ”
His other hand snakes up between my breasts and grasps my neck.
“How turned on are you right now, my sweet Olivia?” His voice is low and seductive in my ear as the hand on my stomach moves lower to the hem of my skirt. “Did your pussy throb for me while I played for you the same way my cock throbbed for you?”
“Yes,” I practically purr as his fingers run along the lace of my panties. He’s so close to where I want him, and I feel my body respond to him with an urgency that only he can sate.
My pulse beats in a steady rhythm against his palm on my throat as I wait on bated breath for what I know is coming.
His fingers expertly pull my thong to the side as he slides two deep inside me. A low moan escapes from my throat as my hand comes up behind me and I sink my fingers into his hair, lying damp against his neck. He’s still wearing his ball cap, and that image alone has me dripping onto his fingers.
“Do you have any idea what you do to me? Just knowing that the whole time I was playing for you, your pussy wanted me this much…God, it puts me in an uncontrollable frenzy.” His skilled fingers drag along my walls, and my eyes close as sheer pleasure courses throughout my body.
“I need you.” He leans down and kisses my neck, pulling my skin with his teeth.
“I’ve never needed anything more in my life than I need you right now.
” His words filter through the air, adding more fuel to an already lit flame.
“I’m going to fuck you now, honey,” he says in a smooth voice as my body sinks against him for the taking.
“Hard.” He says the final word with so much control that there isn’t a doubt in my mind that he means it .
“Yes, please,” I manage to say as his fingers move skillfully inside me. I would agree to anything he asked me to do right now if it meant reliving this ache deep inside.
Releasing his hold on me, he turns me around and lifts me up, my skirt disappearing around my waist as I wrap my legs around him.
He walks us to the back wall and presses me up against it.
“The desk will have to wait for next time,” he breathes against my neck.
I hear the zipper on his pants, and my heart speeds up at the sound.
“It will cause too much noise for what I’m about to do to you. ”
Moving my lace to the side, his piercing touches my entrance, and I brace myself for what I know will be felt in every inch of me.
“Look at me, Olivia,” he says quietly. His greys are a full-on storm as they darken with a lust-filled haze. “I’m going to cover your mouth to stifle any noise you make. Are you okay with that?”
“Yes,” I whisper. I know he’s on a high from playing, and the adrenaline is still pumping through his veins.
Mark used to get the same way after a show, but it never felt like this.
I feel every bit of what he’s feeling. The need…
the lust…the strong urge to take what you want.
I’ve never wanted to be a sacrificial lamb more than I want to right now.
My body is his for the taking, and I want more than anything to be used as his release for this pent-up energy that’s consuming us both.
“Good.” His hand covers my mouth in a firm grip while the other digs into my ass to get me locked in place.
“God, you look fucking beautiful pinned against the wall.” My breath becomes shallow as I struggle to breathe through my nose.
It’s not enough for me to get him to stop, though.
I love this dominant side of him, and feeling owned by him somehow only makes me feel more powerful.
“Hang on tight, honey. I’m about to destroy this sweet pussy.
” He thrusts into me so hard that I swear he landed in my stomach.
My scream is muffled as he settles deep inside me.
“Fuck,” he pants out. “You’re so fucking wet for me that I can feel it sliding down your leg.
I think I got it wrong…it’s me who’s about to be destroyed. ”
He moves fast and hard, touching places that I never knew existed. I cling to him tightly, digging the heels of my boots into his back, only further igniting the beast inside him.
I greedily take everything he unleashes on me, knowing I’ll wear every bruise and mark with pride. It doesn’t take long before I feel my body start to tighten around him.
“That’s it, baby,” he groans into my neck and lightly bites the spot near my tattoo. “Fucking squeeze that tight pussy around what’s yours.” His words take me over the edge as I bite down on his palm, and a cry erupts from my lips.
Growling, he pounds into me harder until we both shatter together. His warm release pours into me as I pulse around him, surrendering myself completely to him.
His jagged breaths warm my neck as his hand drops from my mouth to cup the back of my neck. He holds me tight until the very last tremor leaves my body.
“Fuck, Olivia,” he pants into my skin. “I’m pretty sure my soul left my body on that one,” he softly chuckles. Lifting his head, he searches my face. “I didn’t hurt you, did I? The drumming, this outfit, seeing you dance for me…. God, I felt like I was going to die if I wasn’t inside you.”
“No,” I smile, shaking my head. “You somehow know just what I need without me even knowing it myself.” I bring his head down and touch his soft lips with mine. He sinks into me and kisses me with such tenderness that I have a hard time keeping the tears at bay.
“You were amazing up there,” I say, finally breaking away, but keeping him close. “The way you play…it’s.” I try to search for the right words, but there aren’t any to describe what I felt while watching him. “You’re breathtaking to watch.”
“I don’t know,” he murmurs. “I think my view on stage was the breathtaking one. This body swaying to my beat is something I want to see every time I play.” He kisses me once more before slowly sliding out of me and setting me on the floor.
“I need to get back out there and check on things,” he says, fixing his pants before grabbing a clean t-shirt that isn’t damp from sweat off his desk.
He runs a hand through his dark hair and replaces the ball cap once he’s dressed.
“I’ll be out in a second. I’m going to freshen up in the bathroom real quick.” I reach up on tiptoes and kiss him briefly on the lips.
“Come find me when you’re done.” His smile spreads across his face, and my heart wants to grab hold of him and never let go.
“I will,” I grin, watching him leave as the door shuts behind him.
Walking to the bathroom, I quickly wash up and run a hand through my hair before touching up my makeup.
Returning to the crowd, I spot Miles talking to Noah and his wife, Emma, at his side.
Maverick and Bella are next to them. I smile as I approach everyone.
He told me earlier they were coming tonight, and that Noah is a silent partner who helped design the whole place.
I haven’t seen them since Lyla’s party, so I’m glad they could make the hour drive to be here.
Giving them all hugs, I greet them as Miles’s hand goes around my waist and pulls me to him.
“We heard you guys were together,” Bella grins at us.
Her bright blue eyes are identical to her brother, Noah’s.
She looks beautiful tonight. Her long blonde hair is tied back in a sleek ponytail, and the blue dress she is wearing makes her ocean-colored eyes stand out even more.
“I knew after Charlie’s birthday party that it was only a matter of time before you two got together. ”
“I finally got her to admit she likes me,” Miles looks at me and winks.
“Maybe I do a little,” I grin, and hear Mav chuckle.
“You’ve met your match, my friend.” His green eyes dance with laughter against his tanned skin as his deep dimples appear in a grin.
“Yes, I have,” Miles softly laughs and squeezes my hip.
“Noah, you did a beautiful job on this place. I couldn’t believe the transformation when I saw it.”
“Thank you,” he says, smiling at my compliment. “Miles had the vision and gave me a great structure to work with. I was just the lucky one who got to bring it to life.”
“And this crowd,” Emma says excitedly, looking around. “It looks like the whole town of Blue Haven is here tonight.” She takes in the place as Noah absently plays with her long brunette hair as she leans against his chest.
You can tell both of these married couples are very much in love with the small touches and glances they share.
Just like his brothers, they have found the other part of their soul.
Miles’s hand moves up and rests against my bare midriff as his thumb strokes my skin.
Something tells me I’ve found mine, too, if I can find the strength to grab it.
“I’m pretty sure they are,” Miles grins at Emma.
“Tonight couldn’t have been a better turnout.
You guys take a look around and see all of Noah’s hard work.
When you are done, there is a table in the corner next to the one my brothers are at that I reserved for you guys,” he says, pointing to the far back.
“Wine and bourbon are already there waiting for you.”
“Now we’re talking,” Mav grins. “My parents are watching Maven and Holden tonight, so this beautiful lady and I are going to enjoy every bit of our time tonight.” He pulls Bella to him and kisses her loudly on the lips.
“Yes, we are,” she laughs.
“Same with us,” Noah winks at Emma, and her cheeks warm as she blushes. “Thank God for overnight sleepovers with my parents,” he grins, before they start walking toward the bar to check out the place.
“I really like them,” I smile as I watch them disappear in the crowd.
“Me too,” Miles grins.
“Hey, boss, we might need your help outside.” We turn and see Todd, one of the bartenders here tonight. “The crowd is getting bigger, and we don’t have enough hands to keep up with the orders. Katie and Tina are busting ass to deliver drinks, but more keep flowing in.”
“I guess that’s a good problem to have,” he chuckles. “I’ll be right there to help,” Miles tells him.
“Thanks,” he says, before disappearing back outside.
“I guess my bartending skills are going to be put to good use,” he chuckles. “I’ll walk you back to the table before I get to work.”
“Put me to work, too,” I say, stopping him from leaving.
“You don’t have to do that,” he laughs. “Enjoy yourself tonight. We’ll be okay.”
“No, I want to. I used to waitress when I first graduated from high school. It’ll be fun.”
“Your heels,” he says, looking down at my boots. “Your feet will suffer in those.”
“I’ll be fine,” I giggle. “I used to walk miles in heels when I lived in Chicago. Put me to work, boss.” I grin wickedly at him and lay my hand on his chest.
“Now that I could get used to,” he says, raking his eyes down me.
“You’re hired.” He takes my hand and leads me through the crowd to the doors heading outside.
“If any guy bothers you, I want you to tell me immediately. I won’t tolerate drunk assholes who touch my staff or talk rudely to them.
Especially you.” He opens the door to the deck, and I walk outside.
The crowd is twice as big out here, and we have to squeeze through to get to the bar.
“I’ll be fine,” I assure him. Stopping, he turns toward me and blocks me from going further.
“ I’ll be fine doesn’t cut it. Promise me, Olivia, or I’m walking you right back to my brothers.”
Rolling my eyes, his eyes narrow, and I suppress a grin at his serious face. “I promise I’ll come and get you. Better?”
“I don’t know. Something tells me I’m going to regret this,” he mutters, leading me to the bar.
