Chapter 23
MARLENA
Ican’t remember why I came into this room.
It feels like I’m forgetting something, but at the same time, I don’t want to remember.
There’s a niggling at the back of my mind, but I know that all that waits for me there is disaster.
But the more I kiss my intended husband, the more I can forget what it is that’s dragging me down.
I want him more than I’ve ever wanted anyone in my life. Weakly, the better half of my brain tries to remind me of all the reasons I’m supposed to keep my hands to myself. He’s a criminal. He’s my former employer. He’s at least a decade older than me, maybe more.
But I thrust all of those objections aside to focus on the here and now.
I run my fingers through his hair. It’s so short and well trimmed, I can barely grasp it.
His jaw is rough with the stubble from last night.
He hasn’t shaved this morning, and I find it incredibly attractive.
Both his hair and his beard are peppered with gray, which makes him seem formidable and experienced, two things that make me wild.
I spread my legs, thwarting his attempts to remove my panties. I realize what I’m doing, and scissor my legs back together so he can sweep the underwear past my ass. I feel the whisper of cotton as it glides down my thighs. Then I step out of the leg holes, freeing myself for his conquest.
He tosses the underwear away and scoops me up. I feel the heat of his palm against my skin as he cups my backside. He slides me close, pinning me to him as I’m perched on the edge of the desk. I have his thickening erection right where I want it, between my legs and against my wet pussy.
My sight goes dim as my body lights up. I don’t need any peripheral awareness anymore.
All that matters is getting his cock inside me as quickly as possible.
We’re still kissing, licking each other’s lips, diving deep into each other’s throats.
He tastes like leather and cologne, and a hint of the coffee we’ve both indulged in.
I manage to get his belt undone. It’s taken me far too long because his waist is pushed up against mine. I feel like I’m a safe cracker, working under pressure. If I can’t open the combination lock, reality will catch up with me and I won’t get to enjoy the treasure.
His lips move to my ear and tug. I’ve never had anyone nibble on my ear before, and I can’t believe how good it feels. I’m almost tempted to relax, and allow him to set the pace. But then my lady parts complain, demanding attention.
He sucks one earlobe between his teeth, and I feel the heat of his tongue wash over me. It’s almost as if he’s found another pleasure spot on my body, one that I wasn’t even aware of.
I moan, releasing his belt to thread my fingers through his hair. I just want him. All over me, inside me, surrounding me. I want to bury myself in his body and never leave. If our lust were a fire, it would fuse us into one solitary creature destined to spend a lifetime pleasuring itself.
He takes hold of my robe and slides it off. The expensive fabric pools around me, providing an even sweeter sensation than the cold wood beneath my thighs. I yank my nightgown off, and then I’m naked, perched on his desk, hungry for his cock.
I arch back, showing off my tits. It’s not that I’m vain, I’m just struggling to scratch that itch.
He takes advantage of the position, cupping my left breast in one hand and dragging his mouth down to lick the other.
My ear throbs where he was sucking on it, but a moment later, my nipple is alight with sensation.
It’s too much. I feel too good, and yet not nearly good enough. I’ve succumbed to my animal instincts. I’m a great, big open wound, desperate for salvation. He’s the only thing that can bring me to my senses, and I need him.
I struggle to right myself, determined to take his clothes off so that we can finally settle the score. He’s wearing a button-down shirt and a suit jacket with no tie. Even at this early hour, he’s dressed to impress. I start working on the buttons, but he’s impatient.
He replaces my fingers with his own, nearly ripping the buttons off in the process. I watch him move, wondering how on earth I’m going to survive the wait. He tosses his shirt off into a corner and comes back to me with savage strength.
Our chests collide, our skin hot to the touch.
I drag my nails across his back, feeling the smooth ripple of muscle beneath my fingertips.
He’s kept himself in peak physical condition, and it shows.
I can’t get enough of his physique, but he doesn’t give me time to marvel at the strength of his core.
Instead, he connects with my lips again, his mouth hot and insistent.
He pressed me back against the desk so that I have to thrust my hands behind me to maintain my balance.
I want desperately to hold him, but he’s got plans of his own.
I manage to free one hand so that I can skim it across his shoulder.
But then he wraps one arm around my midsection and pulls me closer.
The arm I’m using to prop myself up buckles, and I fall back.
Now I’m splayed out on the desk in front of him, and he’s treated to quite the view. My hair falls into my eyes, and I scrape it away just in time to see him unbuttoning his pants. I realize that I’m about to get what it is I really desire, and I don’t have to lift a finger.
He pushes his pants down, freeing his cock from its confines. I can’t see it. I want to see it. I work my way up onto my elbows to take a look, but by now, he’s got himself in hand.
The tip pokes out from his fist, and it’s wider than any I’ve ever seen before. The skin is nearly purple with longing, and I ache to stroke it myself. But he’s got other ideas.
I spread my legs as wide as I can, sliding my hands along the desktop like I’m making snow angels. I feel the push of him against my internal flesh. It’s smooth as a battering ram and just as thick.
Grabbing my hips, he slides himself home.
Our pelvic bones connect as he dives deep.
I’m impaled on his cock and loving it. A calm washes over me as I realize that this was meant to be.
He’s going to be my husband, and I’m going to be his wife.
Of all the things happening in my life, this is by far the most natural.
A gasp escapes my throat. His cock is so big, it almost hurts. I can feel him stretching me to the breaking point, my sensitive skin humming with satisfaction. He puts his hands on the desk beside my hips and looks down at me.
Our eyes connect. We’re deeply absorbed by each other. He wants to know if he has my permission to start pumping. I don’t know how I know, but I can read him like a book. I nod swiftly, afraid that if I speak, I’ll destroy the magic.
He takes one more second to seat himself completely before dragging his dick halfway out.
Oh, the glory of that concentrated movement.
I dig my fingernails into the desk, crumpling a bit of paper that’s lying near the edge.
I don’t know what it is, and I hope it isn’t important.
But in the next second, all thoughts of damaged documents fly from my brain in record speed.
He slams back into me with all the power of his core. I twist my legs around him, locking my ankles around his waist. He ruts, banging the desk against the floor. I hear the noise reverberating in the room, and I’m sure people can hear us. Not that I care.
I begin to shout. It’s so good, it’s tearing me apart.
I want him deeper, faster, harder. As if he can read my mind, he speeds up, gutting me from the inside.
My breasts bounce with each thrust, like two heavy globes.
My ass slides against the grain of the desk, the hard surface digging into my pelvic bones.
I see stars a moment before the world shatters, but he’s still not through with me. As my body convulses with pleasure, he lifts me up and sits me down in his lap. I’m groggy. I don’t even realize what is going on. But I feel his dick thrust up into me as we collapse into his office chair.
He grips my hips so I’m riding him. I have to figure out where to put my knees, because the armrests don’t allow for swift movement. It takes me a moment, but the whole time I’m loving his massive cock between my legs.
I finally figure out what I’m doing. If I slide my legs through the armholes, then I can sit on top of him free and clear. I rise up on his shaft and slam my weight back down again, causing ripples of ecstasy to course between us.
His hands on my hips tighten, his face a mask of concentration. I know he’s holding off. He wants to give me as much satisfaction as I can milk from this encounter. But I want him to come.
I ride him like a cowgirl, tossing my hair this way and that. I arch my back, pressing my breasts up toward the ceiling. I’m wild and carefree. I’m driving myself back toward climax faster than I can believe.
A second orgasm overtakes me, causing me to shiver. I pant into his ear, my neck and the small of my back beaded with sweat. But he’s not finished. He eases me out of the chair, careful not to hurt me.
I drag my legs free, nearly exhausted from all the activity. He flips me over and presses my chest to the desk. My ass hangs over the lip, my slit exposed to his probing fingers. He slips three inside me, sending sparks racing through my vision.
I cry out, not sure if I can handle any more. I need him to come more than I’ve ever needed anything in my life. I want to satisfy him the way he’s satisfied me, but I’m losing strength.
He rams his thick cock back inside, causing me to stop breathing, feeling like I’m impaled from both ends.
I press my eyes shut, drowning out the vision of the desk and all its paperwork.
My cheek scrapes against the wood as Francisco slams into me.
I can’t even feel my hands anymore, and I’m not sure if I’m holding onto anything.
My world narrows down to the heat in the center of my being and the massive cock rammed inside. I feel another climax approaching, and I know it will be even bigger than the one that came before.
I’m standing on a precipice, bent over oblivion, watching the universe unravel.
It’s heaven, but I’m so far gone I can’t even appreciate it.
He’s finally conquered the aching need that I felt all along.
I’m finally full instead of empty, satisfied instead of full of longing, and fucked raw instead of celibate.
When he speeds up, I know he’s close to his own release. It’s the mother of all triumphs, knowing that he’s going to come inside me. I brace myself, dragging my lifeless arms to clutch at the edge of the desk. Just one more thrust, and I know we’ll fall together.
He forces himself as deep as he can, his fingers digging into my hips as he lets himself go.
Fireworks explode in my mind, shattering reality and causing waves of ecstasy to crash over me.
I hear a ringing in my ears, and the world shifts.
I hang onto the desk for dear life, knowing that I’m safe but terrified that I’ll spin off into oblivion.
My heart pounds in my chest. My lungs ache for air. I open my eyes to see nothing but a curtain of hair. The clock ticks loudly in the silence that follows, proving that the world really did manage to survive.
His dick throbs inside me, the last of its efforts monumental. After a while, Francisco releases my hips and puts his hands on the desk beside me. He’s winded too, and we stand there, locked together at the midsection, trying to catch our breath.
The phone rings.
I groan, feeling like I’m a thousand years old. He slides himself out of me, reaching down to bring his pants back to his waistline. The phone just keeps ringing, calling me back from the brink.
Dazed, I hear him pick it up.
I’m still naked, still planted on the desk. My ass is still in the air, my legs weak and my arms like spaghetti. I moan, hauling myself to my feet. My tongue is dry, and I want something to drink. But the only thing Francisco has in his office is liquor.
I look around, trying to find my clothes. But then I see him frown. The phone is pressed to his ear, and he’s listening intently. But he’s also watching me. I get the sinking feeling that the phone call has something to do with Brandon.
“What is it?” I ask, feeling suddenly very exposed.
Francisco shakes his head. “Nothing.”
I know that’s not true. Someone just delivered some news, and from the looks of it, it isn’t good. My cheeks get hot. I can’t believe how horny I was and at such an inappropriate time. My brother is in crisis, and I’m here fooling around with someone I swore I was going to keep at arm’s length.
I gather up my clothes, shaking as I pull my pajama shirt back on. I don’t have any pants, but I chase down my underwear from the corner of the room. Stepping into the leg holes is like solving a Rubix Cube. I’m not sure how to approach it, and the fabric is twisted. It takes me several tries.
I finally retrieve my robe and tug it on. Now I’m standing there, fully covered, my pussy aching and dripping from the pounding it received. I want to know what’s going on with my brother, but my fiancé won’t budge.
He scoops me up in his arms and kisses my nose.
My lashes flutter. My heart leaps. I’m such a sucker for approval.
Francisco’s attention makes me feel all warm inside.
I try to come up with a way to force the information from him, but he doesn’t give me the chance.
Leading me gently toward the door, he’s got a different plan altogether.
“Why don’t you go get dressed?” he suggests. “We’re going to find your brother.”
I search his eyes for the truth, sensing that he’s not giving it to me straight.
But what can I do? I can’t go looking for my brother in my bathrobe.
I bow to his superior reasoning and step outside.
My guard looks up from his post near the door and nods.
If he heard anything, he’s too much of a professional to remark on it.
I keep my eyes down as I hurry through the house to the safety of my own suite.
