This month I am spotlighting book 3 in my rockstar trilogy romance – From Despair to Ecstasy.
Scene Set - Darien - rockstar - just got off the stage and is back in his hotel room with Erika whom he hasn't seen in months.
He pulled her next to him. “Guess you’re just gonna have to pay off that debt.” He placed his hand on the back of her thigh, sliding it up and over her butt. Lowering his mouth to the side of her neck, he nipped her soft flesh.
“No. No. Stop.”
“What?”
“Hell no,” his cock complained.
“You were in charge in India. I’m in charge here. We’re gonna do this my way.” She rose up on her toes and planted a perky kiss on his lips. “Don’t want you getting all hot and bothered too fast.”
He pressed his swelling cock against her thigh. “Already am.”
“I did happen to notice.” She slipped her hand between them, sliding slid one finger along his balls and up his shaft.
Darien dropped his forehead to her shoulder. “Oh God, woman. It’s been a while. You have to play fair.”
“Never.” She breathed the word across his chest.
His blood boiled. He hoisted her up to his belly. She wrapped her legs around his hips and her arms around his neck. Stretching his arms out, he gave her space to lean back. His gaze raced up and down the black lace, just sheer enough to hint at the pleasures hidden beneath. The material stretched from her right shoulder down to her mound, then back up to her left shoulder. A tantalizing gap in the front left exposing the exact amount of flesh to raise his heartbeat. Among other things.
He wanted her. He craved to be wrapped up in her. Sweat dripping. Moans filling the air. With a quick move, she’d be naked. Just toss her on the bed and dive in. He knew she’d be hot and ready. His to claim. The pressure deep inside built, urging him. He lifted his hand to her shoulder, slid his fingers under the tiny strap and pulled.
No. Stop, stupid. Don’t. Don’t go all Neanderthal. This is the woman you love. Treat her with respect. His chest heaved and fell as he calmed himself.
“Get it back?”
He met her gaze. “What?”
“Your control? Your eyes went… feral. I thought…”
“Almost did. I want you so badly. Just being near you has me on fire. And this… thing you’re wearing. Teasing glimpses of what I want.”
“I’m sorry.” Sadness filled her eyes.
Idiot. He mentally slapped the back of his head.
Darien opened his mouth to speak. She placed a finger on his lips. “Ssh. I should have thought about that. You must come off the stage pretty wired up, and it has been a while. I do have to admit, I’m more than a little horny, too. We can leave all this romance until tomorrow.” She grinned. “When you’ve gotten the fire out of your system.”
“Yes,” his cock yelled. “Do it.”
“There is no getting the fire out of me when I'm around you. You make me burn.” He hunched his shoulders. “You’re right. I was in charge in India. So tonight, you’re the Boss Lady. What do you want me to do?”
“You sure?”
He grinned. “Let’s just say, I know the end to this and the longer you take, the more I’m gonna make you scream. So it’s a win-win. What do I do?”
