I try to decipher what she’s saying between the lines, but I’m at a loss. “What do you mean, love?”
I run my hand from her stomach to her sternum and stop at her throat. Circling her throat with my hand she swallows, moving my hand as she does. “Ever since the other night, I want to be close to you in a way that borders on crazy.” I huff, but don’t interrupt her. “So, I was wondering, could youbethat close to me? But without it turning into sex? Like what we did in the SUV?”
I run her words through my mind over and over again before it clicks. “Cock warming?”
She shifts against me as I harden against her back at the thought of it. “I didn’t know there was a name for it,” she murmurs.
“Yes, it can be done like how we did earlier or as something comforting and calming. Like what you’re asking for now.”
She swallows against my hand again. “Would you want to do that?” She sounds shy and meek. It makes me smile. She has no idea the control she has over me.
“Yes. I could fall asleep like that every night.” She giggles and presses her ass against me. I rub my hand up her thigh and lift it so it rests over my thigh. I run my fingers through her pussy to make sure she’s wet. She sucks in a breath. “Just checking to make sure you’re ready.”
I enter her slowly, loving how hot and tight she is around me. Once I settle in, it takes some effort not to pull out and push back in, but I stay perfectly still. Both of us are breathing hard and fast. I push her hair over her shoulder.
“You okay?” I ask.
She hums. “Yes. It feels…” she trails off. “Different.” She settles against me and tightens around me slightly, making me grit my teeth.
“Don’t be surprised if I wake you up in the middle of the night,” I warn. She giggles and I grit my teeth again at the sensation. “It’s going to take me a few nights to get used to this.”
“You’d be willing to do this every night?”
“I’ll give you anything you want. All you have to do is ask.”
Chapter 33
McKenzie
“Ican’t believe you’re going to another auction,” Anna says. I stare at the clothes in my closet, trying to decide what I need to bring.
I shrug. “This is who I am now, and this plan is in motion, so there’s no backing out now.” Before she can reply, Clara comes rushing in with a garment bag hanging over her arm.
“It arrived!” she says excitedly. I clap my hands as she hands it to me. Walking to the counter in the middle of the closet, I lay it out and unzip the bag. I pull out the dress and admire it for a few moments before turning it to show Anna and Clara.
“Wow!” “So beautiful!” they say at the same time.
It’s the dress I’m going to wear to the auction. The dress is a mermaid fit, the top black lace that will leave little to the imagination, and there are red and black roses that make up the skirt.
Clara walks forward and runs her finger over the silky fabric. “This is going to look beautiful with your skin tone and hair.” This is the first time I remember being excited about going to an auction. Nix said we used the auctions to experiment, so I’m assuming I have been excited in the past, but this feels different.
After this auction, things will be different. Hopefully. “Are you going to try it on?” Anna asks. I walk to the closet and peek into the bedroom. Nix is working from home today, so I close the door.
“I’m pretty sure he’ll knock before just walking in.” Clara and Anna both snort. I put my hands on my hips. “He’s not that bad.” They share a look and I chuckle. I take my leggings and T-shirt off, standing before them in my panties and bra. Anna and I were roommates back at Brighton, so this is normal for us and well, we’re inducting Clara into the normalcy I guess.
I hand the dress to them and they hold it low while I step into it. It’s strapless, so when I pull it up, I take my bra off quickly and wait for Clara to zip it. “It’s not as heavy as I was expecting it to be” I say as I walk to the floor-length mirror.
Anna and Clara stand behind me with small smiles on their faces. “It’s gorgeous, Kenz,” Anna says and Clara nods in agreement. I smile at them and take a deep breath.
“Mr. Phoenix hasn’t seen it at all?” Clara asks.
“No, I told him it was red and black because he’s picking out our masks and he wants us to match.” As soon as the words leave my mouth, there’s a knock on the door.
“Kenz?”
I turn around and face them with my hands on my hips. “See?” They start giggling, but the door begins to open. “No!” I yell out.
“What the hell?” Nix says. He doesn’t close the door, but he stops.
