Page 38 of Love Above Law

I turn to Dana, "I guess that's it for me today. Thanks for being so kind and showing me how to do everything."

"No problem, girl. I'll see you tomorrow."

After saying my goodbyes to Dana, I look over my shoulder and watch as Lex stands. He says something to Kai before taking his wallet from his back pocket and tossing a few bills on the table. Instead of waiting for him, I continue down the stairs toward Dare. "You did good tonight, Leyna. I'll see you back here tomorrow."

"Thanks, Dare," I smile then make my way to the back of the club to the dressing room to change. As I'm walking down the dimly lit hall, the same feeling of uneasiness I had the other day shopping at the market crawls its way up my spine, only when I look behind me, I take in the empty hallway. This is ridiculous. I'm letting what's happened to me in the past with Santino spook me. Shaking those thoughts away, I step inside the dressing room and close the door. Walking over to the small closet where my leggings and sweater hang, I reach behind me and unzip my dress. Pulling my arms free, I slide the material over my hips. It's in that moment I hear a growl come from behind me. Quickly looking over my shoulder, I see Lex. With my back to him, he has a clear view of my backside. I stand frozen for a moment, taking in his dilated pupils along with the flare of his nostrils. Meeting his gaze, I lick my lips and continue to remove my dress. I'm left standing there wearing nothing but a black strapless bra and a black lace thong. Turning my head away from Lex, I go about getting dressed; all while allowing him to drink his fill. The only noise in the room is the unmistakable sound of his heavy breathing. Once dressed, I grab my purse and face him.

"Time to go home, beautiful."

The ride back to the apartment is intense. Neither Lex nor I say a word. No words need to be spoken. We both know what's coming the moment we get home—the place between my legs tingles at the thought of having his hands on my body.

Reaching over the console, Lex places his hand on the inside of my thigh. My skin heats as his palm begins making its slow trek up until he reaches my pussy. Without shame, I part my legs slightly to give him better access. Using his index finger, Lex starts to stroke the outer edge of my sex through the thin material of my leggings, causing a whimper to escape my lips. I become so lost in his touch I don't realize we have parked, and the car has been cut off.

Without a sound, Lex climbs out of the car, walks around to the passenger side and opens the door. "Let's go," he says, his tone husky. Taking his offered hand, I climb out. The ride in the elevator is pure torture. With Lex holding my hand and his thumb moving in lazy circles over my wrist, I have no doubt he can feel how fast my heart is beating. I'm nervous but excited for what's to come. For once in my life, I have no doubts about giving myself to a man; giving him something I have held onto for twenty-three years. I know with everything I am, even if things don't work out between Lex and me, I won't regret giving him my virginity.

Unlocking the door, we step inside the apartment. Lex tosses his keys on the table beside us. He takes my purse from my shoulder and places it next to his keys. The next thing I know I'm in his arms and his mouth is on mine. My mouth opens, granting him access. His taste is addictive; it fuels my need to have his body cover every inch of mine. Never in my life has a man affected me the way Alexander Taylor does. Reaching up I thread my finger through his hair and tug him closer. Knowing what I need, Lex grabs hold of my butt and lifts. I wrap my legs around his waist, and he carries me through the living room, down the hall, and to his bedroom; the one I sleep in. Still, in his arms, we drop down to the bed. With his body melding into mine, I feel the outline of his hard cock press against my heated pussy. I tear my lips away from his and let out a throaty groan when he thrusts his hips into me. "Lex—I need."

"I know what you need, baby," he mummers into the shell of my ear. "You gonna let me take care of you, Leyna?"

"Yes," I agree slipping my hands between our bodies, fumbling with the button of his jeans.

Lex shakes his head and stands. "I'm not taking you tonight."

"But I thought," I protest.

"No. Tonight is for you. Tonight, my mouth is going to claim your pussy," he declares pulling his shirt off over his head, rewarding me with tan skin and six-pack abs. "Do you have a problem with that, baby?"

I shake my head. "No—no problem here."

"Good. Now sit up," he orders, and I obey. Crouching down to the floor on his knees, he grips the hem of my sweater, pulls it off and tosses it to the floor. Next to go—my bra. Lex clearly intends to take his time because once my breasts are exposed, he takes a moment to admire them. "Fucking perfect," he says before cupping them in his large hands. Leaning forward, he takes my nipple in his mouth.

"Dios," I cry out.

Once he's had his fill of feasting on my breasts, he gently urges me to lay back on the bed, where he then removes my leggings, taking my panties with them, exposing me. Using his large hands, Lex grips me under my knees and pulls me to the edge. Spreading my legs, he fixes his gaze on my bare pussy. Using the pad of his thumb, he parts my lips. "So, fucking wet. Is all this for me? Tell me, Leyna; whose wet pussy is this?" he questions pressing his thumb down to my swollen clit, causing my hips to buck.

"Yours. It belongs to you. Only you."

"Damn straight," he growls just before his mouth is on me and I'm unable to hold back the startling cry coming from my lips.

"Lex!"

Like a man starved, he licks and nips at my center. I feel my orgasm building, and my legs start to quiver. I'm getting close, and Lex must feel it too. Sliding his hands underneath me, he grips my ass and pulls me closer. The moment his tongue plunges inside of me, I fall apart. White flashes of light burst behind my eyelids, and I come. My orgasm rips through my body, and I ride the wave of pleasure with Lex's name on my lips. Coming down from my release, I feel Lex pepper lazy kisses on the inside of my thigh. He then climbs on the bed and settles in behind me. Wrapping his arm around my middle, he pulls me close to his chest. The last thing I remember before falling asleep is Lex kissing me on the sensitive spot below my ear, "sleep, beautiful."

Some hours later, I wake when I hear murmured voices. I reach out in the bed beside me only to find it empty. Rolling over, I look at the clock on the nightstand beside me and see it's three in the morning. Climbing out of bed, I scoop Lex's shirt off the floor and cover my naked body. Strolling down the hall, I follow the sound of his voice. I find him in his office on the phone. "Yeah. Okay. Have you called Kai? Sure, I'll be there in twenty." With a heavy sigh, Lex hangs up the phone.

"Everything alright?" I ask from the doorway, and Lex spins to face me.

"That was Kurt. I'm sorry, baby but I have to go to work." Striding up to me, Lex takes my face in his hands and kisses me. When he pulls back, I see uneasiness in his eyes. "Will you do me a favor, beautiful?"

"Of course."

"Can you stay in today. I don't want you going anywhere. I'll be back in time to take you to Rumors."

I study his face and desperately want to ask him why, but I don't. I trust his reasoning for such a request. "Okay, Lex. I'll stay home." When relief flashes over his face, I know I just gave him what he needed.
