them?”
There was an edge to his question that fired heat low into
her belly. She ached to press back against him, but he had her trapped between
the rough material of his trousers and the cool stone of the sink. “They were
going to kill me.”
His gaze narrowed and his teeth scraped her bruised flesh
for a brief, heart-tightening moment. The pain slipped into pleasure as he
licked and kissed the freshened bite. “Not my question. Did you enjoy them?”
She couldn’t look at him. “Yes.”
“And the beast?”
Fade sucked in a breath. “Yes.”
“They left the marks on your body so I would see them.” His
hand, cool from the stone sink, curved around her hip. He dipped down, his
fingers playing across the crease of her thigh and achingly close to her mons.
“Why do you need me?” His voice burned against her skin and he teased her
earlobe with his teeth. Fade exposed her neck, desperate for his mouth on her
skin. “Say it.”
His fingers dipped to stroke across her clit and a shock of
fire flared through her flesh. “I want you.” It came out in a rush. “I’ve
always…”
“And yet…” His clever, clever finger curled and
little spots of light filled her vision, her spine arching involuntarily. “You
took Mercer’s money and went into the Cage.”
Fade held his gaze, the anger and desire for her blatant.
Did he want her to apologize? He still played her, even now. She pressed
her hand to his, urging his finger deeper, faster. “I’m not going to say
sorry.”
“You wanted me to watch.”
Her face flushed, the stain of it spreading down her neck.
Before Athanasios she would have denied it. Denied it to herself and everyone.
But now? “Yes.”
“Why?” His breath burned against her neck, his teeth drawing
lines into her skin. He licked the marks. “What would I have seen?”
“What you were missing.”
He grinned against her neck, his gaze still fixed on her. “I
knew what I was missing, Fade. I was aware. Every second.”
His fingers brushed against her backside and her pulse
jumped. He wasn’t touching her, he was doing something to himself. She sucked
in a breath as his dick teased against her sex and her fingers bit into the
stone of the sink until the bones hurt.
“Foster…” Raw pleasure wrapped around her and she fought to
keep her eyes open, to watch him, to see his reaction as he sank into her
willing body. But he didn’t move, and his sly fingers continued to torment her,
ramping the growing need in her flesh. “If you knew what you were missing.
Please.” She wasn’t above begging, not at that moment when she would have
everything she wanted, for however brief a time.
“Say you want me.” His gaze was dark fire, angry and
possessive. “Say it.”
“I want you.” The words came out on a rush, her lips and
throat dry. “ Please. ”
He pushed forward one delicious inch, just one, but it
worked for Fade’s heated flesh. Fire and light and joy flared over her in a
quick, tumultuous wave and a cry broke from her…but it wasn’t enough. Nowhere
near.
And Foster, controlling bastard that he was, hadn’t moved.
He simply waited, his eyes narrowed, that wicked smile lifting a corner of his
firm mouth. “So easily pleased, Fadeyka.”
“With you.” She closed her eyes and the deepening blush
burned across her cheeks. This wasn’t anything more than a quick fuck. For him
to take something always on offer. Nothing more.
“Look at me.”
Fade bit at the inside of her cheek and let that distract
her from the sudden, tight pain in her chest. She opened her eyes and her gaze
flitted across his. “I’m looking.”
“Look. At. Me.” His order was a low growl. Fade lifted her
chin and glared at him. “Better. I want to see you when I fuck you.”
She blinked, her belly tightened and the quick sweep of
fresh want darted into her flesh. She pressed her lips together and fought to
breathe. Foster gripped his dick, his knuckles brushed against her ass as
