Chapter Twenty

I’ve always hated nylons.

They’re itchy and confining, and, without a doubt, I always end the

day with a snag in them somewhere. My mama made me wear them to

church growing up, even on the hottest summer days. She said it was

improper to go bare legged. Only heathens do that, apparently. I guess my

mama and the uniform decision-makers at Wolf agree on something,

because one of the requirements is that all females must wear nylons with

their uniform dresses.

And I still hate them.

I hate them so much that I sat in Henry’s living room and peeled them

off with a loud sigh of relief. And the fitted pencil skirt that isn’t meant to

be worn while wrestling with a fitted sheet? That came off fifteen minutes

later, allowing me freedom to crawl around the king-sized mattress because

the bloody corners of this ill-fitting elastic won’t stay down today.

I don’t bother redressing right away. I watched Henry’s boat float

away with him, Belinda, and a dozen guests on board. He won’t be home

for hours and, with my white button-down shirt barely covering my panties

and my hair pulled up in a messy bun, cleaning Henry’s cabin suite has

been a hundred times easier and faster, and a hundred times more

comfortable.

Now finished, I push the nightstand back to its place and flip the

switch to turn off the vacuum. Peaceful silence fills the cabin once again. I

heave a sigh, giving my sore neck a rub.

“This is a new take on the uniform.”

I squeal and spin around to find Henry standing in the entrance to the

bedroom, the nylons that I left on the couch dangling from his fingertips.

His normally cool, guarded mask is off, but I can’t read the dark and

thoughtful look that sits there now.

My face bursts into flames. “Your boat just left. You were on it! What

are you doing back so soon?” The whir of the vacuum masked the sound of

the door opening. I should probably be diving for my skirt, instead of

standing here like a deer caught in headlights beside his bed, but I’m not

sure that this moment could get any worse.

“I didn’t realize I’d have to check in to make sure my assistant was

fully dressed before coming home,” he says dryly, loosening his tie with his

free hand and tossing it onto his dresser.

“This uniform is not meant for maid work. I should be wearing a

maid’s uniform, if you’re going to expect that I clean this place,” I say in

weak defense, hiding one bare leg behind the other. There is no excuse for

coming home to find your personal assistant half-naked in your suite.

Shit, shit, shit. I can’t stop screwing up with him. I don’t blame him if

he finally decides to fire me. I have it coming.

Only, I’m pretty sure he won’t.

He reaches behind him and pulls the door, letting it coast shut. The

simple action makes my stomach tighten with nervousness. And excitement.

There’s something entirely erotic about being caught half-dressed in

Henry’s room. “One of the guests on the boat had a family emergency that

they needed to tend to. Given I had already done plenty of socializing, I

decided to hop off when we returned. And I’m not exactly dressed for a

boat ride.” He takes slow, measured steps toward me, until he’s only a few

feet away. He slides his suit jacket off to lay it on the bed and I inhale

deeply, the smell of his cologne intoxicating.

This is so inappropriate. “I’m sorry. This won’t happen again, I

promise. Or the shower thing.” I swallow. “Or the spa thing.” I wonder if

that confidentiality agreement extends to cover me from this kind of

embarrassing situation.

Are we destined to be one inappropriate situation after the next, for

the entire summer?

“That’s right. The spa thing.” He steps around me, circling me. It’s an

unnerving, almost predatory move on his part. A shiver runs down my

spine. “Tell me what you were doing in that room with Katie

Montgomery?”

I swallow. He knows who she is, just like he knew who Lorraine was.

Does he know everything about everyone? Or just everything about me?

“Some personal grooming.”

“Eyebrows and underarms take no more than ten. Legs take much

longer. You have no issues with facial hair. So that leaves only one place.”

I gasp when his hand slips between my legs to skate across my inner

thighs.

My body responds despite my confusion, the throb between my legs

that never truly abated since that day in the woods surging again. Is this

really happening? Is he touching me there?

“If we are going to continue to work together, we need to be open and

honest with each other from now on. So I’ll ask you again, because you

never answered me the other day.” His eyes never leave my face, something

dangerous gleaming in them now. “Did you enjoy watching me jerk off in

the shower?”

I shut my eyes. He’s never going to let me forget that.

“Abbi.” It’s nearly a growl.

I let myself nod, my eyes still closed.

“Is that something you’ve seen before?”

I shake my head, unable to find my voice.

“Look at me.”

I force myself to open my eyes, to find him smiling. I trail his gaze as

it drifts down over my bare legs. I was cursing the blouse’s length this

morning when attempting to tuck it into the top of my skirt. Now, I couldn’t

love it more for hiding my ratty white cotton underwear. I need to invest in

some new pairs.

His strong hand grips my jaw, gentle but firm, forcing my head back

until I meet his eyes. Finally, they’re unguarded. Finally, they show

something that I recognize and can identify, even if I don’t believe it—

desire.

Finally...

“It was not supposed to be like this. You were not supposed to have

this kind of impact on me,” he whispers, leaning in to skim his wet lips over

mine, never actually kissing me. Torturing me, as he has become so good at

doing.

“I thought you didn’t like sweet.” I don’t know how I’m even capable

of answering.

He smirks. “I don’t. But the idea of turning my sweet little assistant

filthy is driving me insane.”

I gasp as his hand slides over the curve of my hip, his fingers curling

around and then squeezing my small waist. Am I dreaming all this? Is

Henry Wolf—my gorgeous billionaire boss who could have anyone he

wants—lusting for me?

He edges around until my back is to his chest, the heat radiating off

his body, his hand shifting to my other hip, his fingertips smoothing over

my taut stomach. “You were jealous of your roommate yesterday. Tell me

why. And be unabashedly honest. Please.”

I hesitate. Can I really talk to him so openly? “Because I wanted you

to look at me like that. I wanted to be her.” But Rachel is fired, so maybe I

don’t want to be her.

He chuckles against my ear, the vibration coursing all the way down

to my nipples, tightening them. “She’s a dime a dozen. Do you want to

know why I was looking at her like that?”

I nod. Do I? Henry’s so unpredictable, I can’t be sure that what comes

out of his mouth won’t be hurtful.

“Because I’m guessing she was one of the roommates who you

watched get tongue fucked. That’s what you saw, isn’t it?”

I open my mouth to deny it, but he pushes, “Don’t be shy with me. I

don’t want shy.”

I nod and I feel his smile against my ear.

“I started to picture you getting wet while watching her. And the

thought of you getting wet, of this body,” both his hands are on my hips,

hovering over the elastic of my panties, gripping me tightly, “writhing

naked on my bed, with your legs spread and waiting for me to teach you

everything you’ve been missing.” The room is beginning to sway with his

words. My legs wobble and his grip tightens. He won’t let me fall. “That’s

why I was looking at her like that. I don’t want her.”

But apparently he wants me.

My skin flushes as one of his warm, large hands dips beneath the

elastic of my panties to cup me between the legs. He groans. “Why did you

do this?”

“I don’t know.”

“The truth,” he pushes, his hot, moist breath coating my skin. I tip my

head to the side, hoping his mouth will find my neck.

“I wanted to be more like Rachel. Someone you might look at.” I

pause. “Do you not like it?”

My knees buckle as his finger slides through my slit once, so slowly.

“So you did it for me?”

“Yes.” I don’t... It’s hard to focus. Henry Wolf has his hand in my

panties. He wants me.

His finger makes another pass, teasing my clit on its way past. “Fuck,

you are soaked. Do you want me to stop?”

I should, for so many reasons. “No,” I whisper shakily. All of me is

shaking, even my legs. But it’s not with fear. It’s with anticipation. “I

thought this couldn’t happen.”

His hand stills and I’m afraid I said the wrong thing. Oh God, I hope I

didn’t. These have been the longest days of my life. I can’t bear the idea of

him stopping now.

I part my legs more, hoping he’ll get the message—that I don’t want

him to stop.

“I don’t give a fuck about what we can and can’t do.” His free hand

coils around the back of my long hair. He tugs my head, forcing it back

against his chest until I can see him leaning over me, watching his hand

work down below. “You said you would give Wolf everything you have.”

“I did,” I whisper. In my interview, I remember. And he remembers.

“So I guess that means I have to give you everything I have.”

His lip curls into a smirk. “Are you willing to do that? Do you want to

go back to Chicago knowing more than just some spineless idiot who let

you go?”

If I give Henry myself—my body—I doubt I’ll ever think of Jed

again. Though Henry may wreck me for all future men. But right now I

don’t care about the future. All I care about is the next four months and that

Henry’s thumbs are working on my panties, sliding them down until they’re

tumbling to the soft, white rug beneath our feet. I step out of them gingerly.

While I still have my shirt covering my vital areas, I feel naked next to his

fully dressed frame.

“Abbi, answer me.”

I swallow. And nod. Yes, I want this. I want him.

He leads me backward to the edge of the bed by my hips, pulling me

onto his lap as he sits, his hard dick pressing against my ass. His hands

seize my inner thighs and he pulls my legs apart until they hang on either

side of his thighs, and I’m spread wide open.

The full-length mirror that leans against the wall opposite us reflects

the shocking image back at me.

“Don’t,” Henry purrs as my body tenses. His palms hold my thighs

apart when I try to pull my legs closed, even pulling them farther apart.

“There is nothing about this view that you should be hiding from me. In

fact...” He lets go of one thigh to work the buttons of my blouse with quick,

expert dexterity. Peeling the two sides away and over my shoulders, I’m

soon in nothing but my bra.

With complete efficiency, he reaches back and unsnaps the hook,

letting the plain cotton material fall to the carpet.

And now I am laid bare in front of a man for the first time in my life,

in an explicit way.

His chest presses against my back with his deep exhale. His heated

eyes roam my body’s reflection without shame; the sight of them on my

breasts makes my nipples tighten with anticipation. “I knew they had to be

real but...” His words drift off as he fills his hands with them, the pads of

his thumbs running back and forth over my skin, sending shivers right down

to my core.

As exposed as I am, I should be ill at ease, and yet his hands and eyes

on my body are warming me from the inside out. He lets go of my breasts

to skate his hands over my torso and taut belly, his fingers rubbing back and

forth over the flat surface. “Are you still sore?”

He doesn’t have to elaborate; I know what he’s referring to. The light

pink skin between my legs.

“A little.”

“They say to give it twenty-four hours.”

Twenty-four hours for what? Katie didn’t mention anything about

that.

His right hand reaches down between my legs to slide a finger

through the slit again, the act so much more intoxicating in my current

predicament. But he doesn’t stop there this time. A light gasp escapes me as

he pushes the tip of his index finger into me.

“Tell me the truth: has no one ever touched you like this?” he asks,

his mouth pressed against the back of my neck.

“No.”

“Not even your ex?”

I shake my head, closing my eyes as my body welcomes the intrusion.

“Then I’m one lucky bastard.” He pulls his finger out and then slides

it back inside again, just the very tip, over and over, at a painstakingly slow

rhythm. “Watch me do it,” he commands, and I open my eyes to see the

slick moisture coating his skin with each pass.

“You’ve been wanting this for a while, haven’t you?” He slides a

second fingertip in, stretching me gently. I squirm a little against, but he

doesn’t let up, his thumb reaching for my clit to rub against it. I can’t keep

the soft whimper from escaping my lips.

“Good. Let me hear that.” All semblance of the cold Mr. Wolf has

vanished. I have a soft and caring and sensual Henry now, and it makes me

open up wider for him and grind my ass into his lap as his fingers probe me,

pushing inside, until I feel a strange pressure.

“You’re going to give me your virgin pussy, aren’t you.” It’s not so

much a question.

“Yes.” I want this man to have it. I want him to teach me everything

he knows.

“Good. Take a deep breath for me, Abbi.”

I do, and he angles his hand, pushing his fingers in. I wince with the

sudden pinch. It’s not unbearable, but it’s certainly uncomfortable.

It finally dawns on me what Henry did.

“You’ll thank me for doing that now instead of later.” He stills his

hand as my body adjusts to having two fingers inside me, but his thumb

keeps working small circles around my clit, rubbing with the perfect

amount of pressure.

“Does that mean—”

He chuckles. “Don’t worry. You’re still a virgin. For now.” I turn my

face to meet his, his chin settled on my shoulder. His mouth kicks up in a

sexy smirk, but his eyes don’t shift, locked on what his hand is doing

between my legs.

I need to feel his mouth pressed against mine, his tongue slipping

against mine, so badly. He hasn’t made a move to kiss me yet, though.

There’s no point hesitating anymore. I lean in and coast my lips over the

corner of his mouth. His eyes snap to mine and then my mouth, his hand

stilling, and I’m afraid I’ve done something wrong.

“Please?” I whisper.

With his free hand, he seizes the back of my head, fisting my hair and

angling my head back to give his mouth full access. He takes it

aggressively, his tongue invading my mouth, the taste of him overwhelming

my senses.

Kissing is one thing I’ve had a lot of practice at, and yet this kiss...

I can’t handle the expertise with which he so quickly and so

completely consumes me, thrusting his tongue into my mouth with

abandon. It’s nearly more erotic than what he’s doing with his hand down

below, and both things happening simultaneously is more than I can handle

at once. I pull back from him slightly, sliding my tongue over the seam of

his lips in a teasing manner as well as a silent plea that he guide me rather

than dominate me.

It seems to work.

“Fuck, your mouth tastes sweet,” he whispers, and suddenly I’m

shifting in his powerful arms. My back hits the mattress and his hard, fully

clothed body is pressed against my side, my head resting on one of his

arms, his hand roaming my naked flesh. “I can’t wait to taste the rest of

you.”

My heart jumps in my chest at the thought of his lips down there. But

that’s not happening now, I guess, because his mouth is back on mine and

his hand begins its rhythmic motion, his fingers pumping in and out of me

once again now that the pain has abated.

“Have you ever come before?”

I hesitate and it makes him growl.

“I’m going to know every square inch of your body very soon, Abbi.

There’s no point hiding anything from me anymore. So tell me, have you

orgasmed before?”

“Yes.” It comes out as a squeak.

He leaves my lips to peer down at me. “By touching yourself?”

I flush, but I can’t truly be ashamed right now, not with his hand

inside me. “Obviously.”

He smirks. “Thinking of me?”

I nod. “That night that I saw Katie and Rachel... you know.”

“You enjoyed watching that, didn’t you?”

I purse my lips to hide my embarrassed smile. “I don’t know,

honestly. It’s nothing like being with you.”

His fingers curl to find a sensitive spot deep inside and against my

belly. He begins rubbing it, all while his thumb keeps working against my

clit.

A strange mewling sound escapes my throat as pressure quickly

builds inside me. I can feel the strange tingling in my spine that tells me my

orgasm isn’t far behind. “What are you doing?” I pant and writhe against

his hand, feeling drips of moisture running out of my body and down along

my skin. I didn’t think it was possible to be this wet.

“I’m making you come.”

I’ve been hesitant to touch him, but now I reach up to grasp the back

of his head and pull him in to my mouth, my fingers weaving through that

thick mane of hair that I dreamed about doing this to. It’s even more

exquisite than I imagined. My other hand grips his arms, my fingers

stretching over the strain in his triceps. I tease inside his lips with the tip of

my tongue, earning a deep growl and his mouth pressed hard against mine,

his tongue slipping over mine, our saliva pooling and mixing together.

When I finally orgasm, it’s from a depth I never knew possible, my

entire body convulsing, my screams neither quiet nor shy. Henry’s skilled

hand doesn’t still, dragging every last muscle spasm out in waves until I’m

left boneless, my legs splayed to either side, my energy drained. “I’ve never

come like that before,” I whisper.

He slips his fingers out of me and stands. I watch him peel off his

dress shirt and t-shirt, and toss them to the dresser. I don’t think I could ever

get enough of his hard, muscular chest, his skin smooth and tan, his nipples

tight.

“Sit up,” he commands, unbuckling his belt and unfastening his pants.

His knuckles skate across my lips “I can’t meet people with a raging hard-

on.”

He wants a blow job. I shyly reach up to push the wool material of his

pants away, my palm grazing against the prominent erection beneath his

cotton briefs. It jumps in response. I don’t know how to do this.

“I have complete faith in you,” he whispers, as if he can read my

mind. “Start by pulling it out.”

I gingerly push his pants down to his knees and then gently curl my

fingertips around the elastic of his boxer briefs, tugging them down,

stretching them around his front. His cock emerges, a long, thick rod,

angled perfectly toward me.

I never expected to think of a cock as a beautiful thing, but Henry’s

can only be described as such. It’s a healthy pinkish-purple, and smooth, the

tip soft. I don’t know how my body will ever stretch to fit it inside me, but

the pulsing sensation in my belly—only minutes after that mind-blowing

orgasm—tells me I’m desperate to find out.

“It’s so big.” I sound like a silly girl when I say that, but it’s true. It

was sizeable when I saw him in the shower, across the room. Now it’s

literally staring me right in the face.

He smirks, waiting, his eyes blazing with heat and anticipation.

I wrap my hand around the bottom of it, my fingertips barely meeting.

I imitate what I watched Henry do to himself, sliding my fist up and down

along its length, enthralled with how silky and impossibly hard it feels.

“Exactly like that. Tighter.” I squeeze him and then look up to find

him staring at me through hooded eyes, his lips parted. I lean forward and

trace the tip of him with my tongue, where the bead of moisture sits on the

end, tasting the saltiness.

“Do that again, but look up at me this time,” he demands, his voice

turning husky.

I lean in and lick him again, my eyes never leaving his, earning his

appreciative smile. He mouths “again,” and I do it again, only this time I

take my time, twirling my tongue around his tip. I open my mouth wider

and run it along the entire underside.

“Fuck,” he hisses. He curls his large hand around the back of my head

and pulls me to him. I open wide to give him access to my mouth, hoping

I’m doing it right as I close my lips over it. “Suck,” he commands and I do,

feeling a gentle pull against my hair, his silent instruction for me to mimic

my hand earlier. I grip his base tightly and slide my mouth up and down as

far as I can go, which is surprisingly farther than I thought.

His grasp of my hair tightens and his hips begin to thrust.

“You have a pretty little mouth, Abbi. It’s so warm and wet and tight.

Perfect for fucking.”

His words are so filthy and his cock is in my mouth and I can’t

believe I’m doing this. And enjoying it immensely.

My mouth strains to fit him all over and over again, bits of drool

escaping around the rim, but I don’t stop sucking on him. Sometimes my

teeth scrape, but he only moans when that happens, so I think he’s okay

with it.

Sitting on the edge of his bed, naked and with Henry’s cock pumping

in and out of my mouth, my lips swollen, heady desire is building in my

body again. While a little sore, I’m already desperate to spread my legs for

his fingers—and more—to plunge inside me again.

“I’m close,” he whispers. “I need to come in your mouth. I need you

to take it all in, Abbi. Swallow all of me.” His voice is pleading and

desperate as if me not swallowing would ruin something monumental.

Of course I will. Right now, I’d do anything for this man.

His dick swells even more and his thrusts come harder and faster,

until my eyes are watering from the strain. Then suddenly he cries out, and

holds my head down, and a flood of warm salty liquid hits the back of my

throat in burst after burst. So much cum.

He stills and then pulls out of my mouth, allowing me to swallow

every last drop of it as he strokes the hair back off my face slowly,

affectionately. I peer up at him in awe.

I just made Henry Wolf come with my mouth.

Now what?

The feel of his dark, hooded gaze drifting over my heavy breasts

coaxes me to lie back and give him a better view. And, hopefully, to entice

him. I’m still afraid this is some marathon dirty dream and I’m going to

wake up before I feel him inside me.

“Oh, babe.” He chuckles as he steps forward to grip my bent knees,

pushing against them until my legs are back and my pussy is spread wide,

his eyes on it. “We need to give that beautiful, tight little hole a rest before I

fuck it raw.”

I clench in anticipation, that deep throb intensifying again. He inhales

deeply, and I know he can smell the muskiness in the air. Of me, ready for

him. His words, coupled with his eyes, could make me come.

Releasing my legs, he takes several measured steps back, his cock

still erect and bobbing. “I’m going to the gym before dinner. You can call it

a day.” Just like that, the steely calm is back.

I watch his superb backside as he disappears behind the pocket door

of the bathroom, pulling it closed all the way.

I slip on my panties and skirt, grab my pantyhose, and duck out,

keeping my head down all the way to my cabin, my mind in a whirlwind

over what I just did.
