Chapter 2

She felt free, like she was floating, and she liked it. She also loved this song. It was hard and crazy. Right now, she felt crazy. She wanted to dance, but Ryle seemed to not know what to do, so she took matters into her own hands and wrapped his hands around her waist.

Raising herself to tiptoes, she whispered, “Dance with me, handsome.” She moved closer until their bodies were pressed together, then she started rolling her hips.

She felt him squeeze her waist and start to move his body in sync with hers. She let out an involuntary hum as his hands slowly rolled down to her ass. She turned around so her back was to his front and rolled against him.

Okay, the drink was starting to kick in, and she loved the feeling of their bodies moving against each other. Her body was getting hot, and her breath was hitching.

He was pulling her closer to him, his hand tightly wrapped around her waist, hot palm splayed across her bare abdomen, and his face in her neck. They kept dancing to song after song until they were both sweaty and panting.

She wanted to get out of there, so she pulled his face down so he could hear her when she asked, “Do you want to get out of here?”

He stopped and stared at her. Was she serious? She didn’t look like she was joking. Her eyes were hot and glowing. The music had slowed down, and so had her movement. She was now slowly rolling her hips against his.

As though sensing his hesitation, she let her head fall back, exposing the length of her neck. Unable to control himself, he tightened his grip on her waist and bent his head to bury his face in her neck, gripping her leg and rolling his own hips this time. She let out a moan, and he almost lost his mind.

“Take me out of here, Ryle. I may jump you any second now,” she whispered into his ear, fingers in his hair.

He couldn’t help but laugh. “What about your friends?”

“They’ll be fine. Let’s go.”

Holy shit, wasn’t luck on his side. Without a second thought, he pulled her through the crowd and right out the door.

“Where’s your car?” she asked as soon as they were out of the club. He brought out his key, and without taking his eyes off her unlocked the car. Her eyes went in the direction of the car and she smiled.

“Let’s go.” She took his hand and led the way to his car and all the way, his eyes were glued to her bum. He could not wait to get down on her.

As soon as they got into the car, she was crossing over to his side to straddle his lap. The second she landed in his lap, her lips were on his and her hands all over him. It was happening so fast his head was spinning. He could hear blood rushing in his ears and fill his groin.

The air in the car was tight and all he could hear was their heavy breathing. His hands went to her ass and he squeezed.

Breaking the kiss, he threw his head back and sighed as she started to move in his laps. She was not going to let him off so easily because as soon as his head hit the headrest, her lips met his neck, making him moan as a fresh wave of lust and pleasure hit him.

She was moving faster and if he didn’t stop her, he’ll embarrass himself. He had not been with anybody in so long, it was not reasonable to be doing this. So he pushed her off him gently.

“Wait, Gen. Hold on. Stop, stop.”

Stop? Did she hear him right? Did he say stop?

“I’m sorry, did you say stop?” She shook her head to clear it because she was confused and honestly, embarrassed.

“Yeah.” He sighed and swallowed before he answered. “I did. I need a sec.” His head was still on the headrest but he was rubbing her thigh softly.

“Umm...” She started to climb off his lap but his grip on her thighs stopped her. She looked at him. She couldn’t be more grateful for the cover of darkness because she was hot with embarrassment and mortification. “What is it?”

“Where are you going?”

“To sit…” Her voice was low.

“Hey.” He sat up straight at the sound of her voice. “Are you okay?”

“Yeah, I’m fine.” She tried to climb off again but this time he wrapped his arms around her to stop her.

“Gen.” His eyes widened in realization. “Fuck. I’m sorry. That’s not what I meant. Shit. We were going too fast, I just needed to breathe. It’s not like that I promise.”

Blinking back tears of embarrassment, she flipped her hair and asked, “How can I believe that’s the reason and not someone you’ve got at home?”

“Believe it cos I’m taking you home, miss. Physical evidence?”

He took her hand and led it down to his hardened dick then leaned in to hug her and kiss her neck.

“Don’t be mistaken, miss. You are going home with me. I just don’t want to embarrass myself or leave you unsatisfied.”

A gasp escaped her lips when he started to trail kisses down her neck.

“We cannot do this here. So let’s head over to my place so that I can get you in bed.”

With one last nip at her neck and a pat on her backside, he put her back in her seat and started the car.

The imp in her made her lean over and nip on his earlobe, pulling a groan from him, then smiling mischievously she whispered, “Well hurry up, stranger, or we won’t be getting home just yet.”

She leaned back in her seat and laughed when he gave her a stern look and took both her hands in one of his to keep them in place. She could not believe her luck.

He turned into the driveway of his father’s hotel where he had a room. The closer they got to their destination, the hotter his blood felt. All he could think of throughout the drive was taking that flimsy dress off Gen and she was not helping. She wanted to frustrate him.

Many times along the ride, he considered pulling over and giving her exactly what she deserved for being naughty. But he had put himself under control. He was not a randy teenager and somehow he wanted to do right by her. He wanted to take her to bed and not ram into her in a car or lobby as exciting as it sounded.

They were walking hand in hand to the elevator of the hotel when he noticed that she had become quiet. He squeezed her hand asking if she was fine and she responded with a nod. Her response caused his forehead to crease in a frown.

“You sure?” he enquired quietly.

“Reconsidering?” This time she smiled and he saw the mischief come back into her eyes.

“Stranger, I just got to see you in the lights. There is no way I’m reconsidering.” That was a stupid lie, she was scared shitless but like she had done all night, she was not going to let him see that.

When they got on the elevator, she looked at him and she saw him watching her with a strange look so she stepped into his space and moved close enough so that their bodies were touching. She trailed her fingered from his fingertips, his tattoos, and his chest then wrapped her arms around his neck.

“You’re a lot hotter in the lights.” She could now see his sharp green eyes, the color of emerald, and his plum lips now parted with desire. He was a big handsome man. Her blood started to hum with excitement again.

“Don’t you think it’s strange that you haven’t even kissed me once since we got here, Ryle?” She moved in closer. “Do we really need to wait to get up to your room? Why don’t you touch me, Ryle? Kiss me.”

She let her hands run over his body and raised her head for a kiss. She could see from the tightening of his jaw that he was on the verge of losing his control. She loved seeing that he could snap at any time. She wanted him to snap, the excitement was building and tension was rising.

“Kiss me, Ryle.” She ran her tongue up the length of his neck and got the satisfaction of him pulling her to his body.

“Stop this, Gen.” He growled.

She moved closer and put her lips to his ears and moaned. “Touch me, Ryle. I want your hands all over me right now.”

“Stop this right now. This is not going to go well.” His words were forced through clenched jaws.

She was not going to stop. This had started off as simple flirtation and seduction. It had been about feeling feminine power but now she couldn’t stop.

In an instant he had her pressed between the wall of the elevator and his body, one hand was on her neck and the other above her head. The position had him standing between her legs, the hard length of his body pressed against her softness.

Once she got over the initial shock, she smiled at him and said. “You might as well just do it.”

She was pushing him. Dom had never met a woman with so much fire. He was so close to giving in and fucking her right there but it wouldn’t make sense. He had no idea how he had gotten her into this position but he was loving it; feeling her pulse quicken under his hand, the look in her eyes begging him to take her, the daring smile on her lips.

Her lips were beautiful. She was beautiful; light-skinned, with long red hair, beautiful brown eyes and a dimple. He wanted her mouth but just as he bent to take it, the elevator dinged and the doors slid open.
