“Good Lord. It just becomes worse and worse with your father, doesn’t it?” Malcolm squeezed her again.
“Not my father, really. And maybe that’s not so bad, after all.” She laid her head against his shoulder.
“But what does it have to do with fate?” he asked.
“Why do certain people come into one’s life? How is it that some become important and some are simply transient? And you are connected to all the pieces—the center, the north star, so to speak. I don’t know yet how. That’s what I was thinking about.”
He kissed her hair. “Your brain is amazing, my darling. All I was thinking about was how long I must wait to get under your skirts again. You see, I am but a simple fool for you.”
Adeline laughed. “Whether it is fate or not, I am glad you came into my life. And I am glad we have become lovers.”
Malcolm pulled closed the curtains in front of them. “Well, I take my new role very seriously.” He began to unbutton the front of her bodice.
“There can’t possibly be enough room for us to make love.”
“I beg to differ, my lady. Let me show you what I mean.” He managed to get the top of her dress unbuttoned and off her shoulders, pushing the sleeves down and trapping her arms behind her. The position pushed her luscious tits up and forward, the pink nipples straining against her white chemise. Unable to resist, he bent to lave one nipple with his tongue before giving it a gentle bite.
Her gasp of pleasure flamed his constant desire for her from a simmer into a damn wildfire. He kissed his way up the smooth column of her neck, licking up behind one ear. “Arms out, please,” he instructed.
She gave a wiggle and pulled her arms from the sleeves. He enjoyed every moment of her breasts rubbing against his chest. Then she looked up at him with those curious eyes, waiting for his next direction, making him grow even harder.
He leaned back against the squabs. “Undo the front of my trousers.”
Adeline’s expression grew positively wicked. She leaned forward and walked her fingers slowly up the outline of his erection. He bit back a moan. He was the experienced one, seducing her, wasn’t he? She scooted closer and began to slide each button open, her fingers brushing his cock and making it pulse in anticipation.
“I have been waiting to examine your phallus. Not that I haven’t enjoyed having it inside me.”
Malcolm groaned. Why was it so erotic when she said the wordphallus? Like she was reading out of some textbook on sexual congress for beginners. Unbidden, an image of Adeline naked, reading in bed, captured his imagination. She would read aloud from her erotic book, then peer over the top of her spectacles and beckon him to come act out what she had read.
He slid his hand behind her neck and brought her lips to his for a scorching kiss. She was so responsive, her tongue dipping in to taste and tangle with his. Christ, he could drown in her kisses. Her fingers never left his falls. The last of the buttons undone, they found his cock and petted him gently. A small gasp from her broke their kiss.
“It’s so soft,” she murmured.
“A man doesn’t like to hear that, darling.”
“Oh, I only meant the skin is soft. Not the phallus itself.” Her hand gripped his cock with a hard squeeze that made his eyes roll back at the pleasure.
“Say it again,” he croaked out.
“Say what? Phallus?”
“Yes, it’s so academic and yet so erotic when you say it like that.”
She stroked him from root to tip as she leaned close to his ear, her voice low and sultry. “Phallus.”
Christ.She was a goddamn siren.
Before he could open his eyes, he felt the wet tip of her tongue lap at his cock. When he glanced down at her, her gaze rose to meet his. “Is this all right? I like it when you lick me.”
“Yes, you may do whatever you like, lick it, suck it, rub it like a bottle with a genie in it. Your touch feels divine.”
Count on his researcher to do a thorough job of exploring. Adeline licked up his length, running her tongue around the head of his cock before taking it into her sweet mouth and sucking it. Malcolm moaned again and gripped her hair. He guided her farther down the next time she lapped at the head. “Yes, that’s it, darling, suck it down.”
She did so enthusiastically. Her hand squeezed the base of his cock as she sucked and lapped at his shaft. Christ, he would come too fast if he let her continue and this had not been the plan.
He tugged her gently off his cock. “That’s enough for now.”
She blinked at him, her pupils blown wide with lust. Her lips swollen and slick with spit. “Did I do something wrong?”
