Roxanne's Redemption (23 page)

One of his hands disappeared between their joined bodies and rubbed her clit. She screamed as her orgasm took her by surprise
,
thundering through her
like a freight train
. She was still trying to catch her breath when Sebastian thrust once, twice then stilled and groaned as he came.
If letting him torture
her
gave her
orgasms like those
, then he could do it any
time he wanted without
worrying about
her
being disagreeable
.

He
lick
ed
her lips when his breathing returned to normal
;
she opened her mouth
.
He thrust his tongue inside
,
kissing her deeply. She broke the kiss
,
giggling when she felt his cock twitch inside her.

“It would seem I have no control ov
er my cock when it comes to you,
”
he
said
against her mouth.

She
got wet
thinking about his lack of control with her
.

“Is that a bad thing?”
she asked.

Sebastian held her tight against him as he rolled onto his back.

“
It’s not a bad thing but walking around all day with an erection
isn't very comfortable.
”

She laughed
.
It
turned into a moan
as he thrust up
. “A
bout two minutes ago I felt you
twitch
,
now
you're
very hard,” she purred
,
rocking
back and forth slowly.

“I told you
about my lack of control with you
.”
H
e held her waist as he sat up
leaning
against the head board. “So, tell me
.
Why
did
you
move
back here
?
”

Roxanne stopped moving. Why did he want to talk now of all times? She yelped when he pinched her clit
.
“You want to talk now?”

“Yes.”

“
It’s about a man.
”

“So?”

“So?”
she
asked
as her brows furrowed
.

“Yes
,
and?”

“But
…but…we just had sex
,
” she
said
.

“Move,” he
ordered
before he continued
. “
You’re
mine
,
so talking about a man from your past isn't a problem
.
”

Her heart flipped at his words, but still nothing came out
.

“Stop
stalling
and tell me.”

“What man do you know would want to discuss his woman’s past lover
or lovers
?
”

He raised
a brow in challenge
. “
I'm not worried about
the men from your past, if that’s
what
you're getting at
.” Then
,
so low that she didn't think she heard him correctly
,
“
b
ecause
I'm not letting you go
,
no matter what.”

Roxanne sighed in resignation. It wasn't like she couldn't st
eer
the conversation
away
from her
, but
a very big part of her wanted him to know. She took it back
.
S
he wasn't so much screwed as she was really and truly fucked. “My fiancé,” she muttered.

“What?” he asked as his hands held her waist
,
stop
ping
her movement.
She pinched his nipple
,
smiling
when he release
d
her to rub it.

“As I was saying,” she said
restarting
her rocking motion. “
Prior to moving here I lived in New York and I was engage
d
to my boss. We were to get married in six months but I called off the wedding when I discovered him in bed with another woman.
Do you want to know what made me furious?
”

She didn't wait for an answer since it was a rhetorical question
. “If he
’d
wanted to do the horizontal mambo with another woman
all he had to do was
end
our engagement
.
It would've hurt, but I would've gotten over it eventually
.
”

His chest shook with laughter.

“What's so funny?”

He chuckled
before
answering,
“
Horizontal mambo?
”

He began
chuckling
again
. His laughter turned into a groan
as
she picked up
her
pace
and
pinch
ed
his nipple in retaliation. In no time at all
,
they both groaned as they came together.

“
I have more questions for you
,
so no sleeping,
”
Sebastian said in between breaths.

She scowled. Might as well answer them and get it over with
.
H
e was
very stubborn
, and
she
knew he wouldn't let her sleep until
all his questions
were
answered
. “Fine,” she muttered with a grimace.

“Tell me about yourself
.
”

“What do you want to know?”

“Where are you
r
parents
? Are you an only child? How long have you been friends with Lexi, Ava and Kira?
What are your favorite color, food, music and movie?
”

Roxanne gaped at him. “
Are
you
r
e
ading from
a list?”

She yelped when he pinched her. “Are you going to answer?”

She sighed. “If I do, will you return the favor?”

“Sure and you don't have to answer in that specific order.”

She rolled her eyes.

She wiggled
,
trying to
get comfortable and gasp
ed
when she felt his cock harden inside her again. He groaned a
nd held
her still
.
Roxanne
stifled
her
laughter
before it escaped
. “My parents died in a car
accident
when I was in college
and
,
yes
,
I'm an only child
.
Kira, Ava, Lexi and I have
been friends since high school
.
M
y
favorite color is r
ed
,
I love
Italian
food, pop
music
, and
favorite movie is
Burlesque
.”

“My parents died two years ago in a boating accident
.
You
already know I have three other brothers. Nick has been friends with
us
since college.
Favorite color is
b
lue
,
Italian
food, jazz and
Anaconda
.
”

She
nodded
as she held back a gasp from escaping. Who would
ha
ve thought they had something in common, even if it
was
just one thing? She sure hadn’t.

“Can I ask you something else?”

“Sure.”

“Tell me about you and your friends
’
tattoos
.”

Oh shit!
“We all have a four leaf clover on our ankles
,
each of our names
occupy a
leaf.”

“The others?” he asked softly.

Damn!
“Umm, I have a pa
nther at the small of my back.
Ava has a tiger
.
Kira has a dragon
that’s breathing
fire. And Lexi has a heart
at
the same place with a sword going through it.”

“There's a word on the sword, but I couldn't see
what it was and asking her didn't fe
el
appropriate
to me
.”

Oh, boy.
“Michael is written on the sword.”

He winced
.
“Does the tattoo mean what I think it does?”

“Yes.”

He winced again
and
she
understood why.
Lexi had gotten that tattoo because she thought it was a good description of what his brother Michael did to her heart, after he went behind her back and propose
d
to another woman.

“I have a question.”

“Ask away.”

“Well,” she said
while
using her finger to trail up and down on his chest. “Can I have my wicked way with you?”

He groaned
.
“
Sure.
Let’s just
hope when you're finish
ed,
my dick isn't permanently limp.”
She
giggle
d
as she beg
a
n her own form of torture
.

* * * *

Roxanne wiggled
as she
tr
ied
to get comfortable and wondered why her bed felt
so hard
.
Her bed
grunted
and
she giggled as she
remembered that
she
’d
fallen
asleep on Sebastian
's chest
last night
. She swung her legs over the side of the bed
,
getting ready to slide off when
his
hand s
topped
her.

“Where are you going?” he asked
groggily
.

She raised a brow though she knew he couldn't see
it
from
what
little light
came
through the window. “Getting ready for work, what else?”

Grunt.
“At this ungodly hour?” he asked.

Roxanne snorted. “It's not
ungodly.
It’s
just five-thirty.”

Grunt. “Precisely
—
ungodly
,” he mu
tter
ed.

She rolled her eyes.
“I have to
go to
work, but you’re welcome to sleep
in
today,
while all those papers pile up.”

“Evil woman,” he grumbled.

She giggled. “You can shower
first
.
”

He release
d
his hold on her
. And
she stood and stretched
as
she
hid her smile when
he
groaned.

“Can
we make sure we’re really awake
, before showering
?”

She shook her head. “I’m not going to be late for work because of you.”
