Sweet Temptation (18 page)

The sheet was only covering her ass; running his hand down her bare back, trying to wake her.

She groaned. “Let me sleep.”

Laughing softly he ran his hand under the sheet to her ass and grabbed it. Moaning, she rolled over onto her back, and stretched. He watched her do that as her breasts lifted up… God he wanted to taste them. If he touched her right now, she wouldn’t be eating.

“I brought breakfast for you.” Reaching for the tray on the bedside table and placed it beside her on the bed.

She smiled. “You didn’t have to make me anything. I would have made it once I got up,” she said. She really had to cover herself; the sight of her naked from the waist up was killing him.

“Can you please cover up, baby?” he said, trying not to moan at the sight of her sitting there.

“Why?” smiling seductively as she stretched her arms above her head.

“If you keep doing that, you won’t be eating at all.” She grabbed the sheet and pulled it over herself, then lifted the tray and placed it on her lap.

“This looks great, thanks.” She grinned.

“You’re welcome, darling. I’ve got some work to do today. I’ll come over around 7:00 p.m. and check on you then.”

She nodded while she was eating. He leaned over, kissed her, and walked out. He told Craig what he was doing and that he would be over tonight. He met Dom at his shed, ready for work.

“What do we have today?” Dom asked.

“I’ve only got the Land Rover today. If you can do that, I can go over the stock we need and go and grab it from across town,” Nate said.

“No worries.”

Nate walked into his office and grabbed his notepad. He walked around his shop writing down what they needed. After the list was done, he called the tyre company to drop off more since he was low on stock. Once that was done he grabbed the keys to his pickup, which he needed since there was a lot to grab. After going to three different shops to get his parts, it was close to 4:00 p.m. He drove back to his place, dropped off the stock and went to see his brother.

Once he arrived back at his garage, Dom and Nate removed the products and placed them in his office to unpack. When they were done and happy everything was in place it was close to 7:00 p.m., so Nate told Dom what they had for the next day and sent him home as there wasn’t much to do. He would finish it before he arrived tomorrow morning. Closing up his shop, he made it to his door. His door was a fraction open. Frowning, he walked in. Dom probably didn’t close it after he went in there before he left. Walking down the hallway to his room, he picked up some clothes and moved to the shower, but before he made it to the doorway he caught a movement and turned quickly. Tracey was lying on his bed, completely naked.

“How the hell did you get in?” Nate growled.

Tracey leaned up on her elbows, smiling. “I missed you and wanted to see you, plus I used the key you gave me,” she answered as she rubbed one leg over the other.

“Well, you can hand over the key, you don’t need it anymore and I won’t be ringing again, either.”

“Come on, baby.” Tracey sat up on her knees leaning towards Nate, reaching for his jeans.

He pushed her hands away from him. “What are you doing, Tracey?”

“I want you. I know you want me, too.”

“No, I don’t. I told you at the beginning, casual sex only, until I start seeing someone on a regular basis. And now that I am, I don’t need you around, so I think you need to leave. I’m only here for a few minutes.” Turning around, he walked into his bathroom and had a quick shower. He finished, wrapped a towel around his waist, and walked back out. She was still there.

“There’s nothing special about her, and she’s not your type.” Tracy stood up from the bed, walked over and stopped in front of him.

“You don’t know what my type is, and whom I sleep with is none of your damn business. So get dressed and get out. Now.”

Smiling seductively, she hooked her fingers into his towel and pulled him forward. “I’m not going anywhere, Nate. I always get what I want, and I want you.” Removing the towel from around his waist, she wrapped her hand around his cock, and squeezed.

Nate pushed her back, “Well you’re not getting it from me, go and find someone else,” he growled.

“I was hoping you weren’t going to say that,” she laughed.

Nate frowned, ready to answer her, but someone came up behind him, wrapped their arms around him and placed something over his mouth. He tried turning around, but couldn’t, so he tried pulling away the hand that was clamped over his mouth. He started to feel drowsy. He turned to see who it was, but dropped to the floor unconscious.

Chapter 10

Craig didn’t allow Skylar to do anything except rest. She was fine. Lying on her couch flicking through channels, trying to find something that was interesting to watch. Craig brought a platter of food for them to share, and she decided to watch
Bridesmaids
. Once it was finished, she got up and went into the kitchen.

“What are you doing up?” Craig growled behind her.

“I feel like some yoghurt and fruit, is that all right?”

“I would have gotten it for you.” He opened the fridge and reached in for the food.

“I can do it myself, Craig. I don’t need a babysitter,” she said.

“I know you don’t, Sky, but you scared the shit out of me yesterday. I’m just making sure you’re okay.” He wrapped his arms around her, giving her a hug.

“Really, I’m fine. It was just one of those bugs going around.” Skylar hugged him back.

“Since you’re fine and Nate will be here soon, I’m going over to see Alex for a bit. I’ll be back around nine. If you need me, give me a call,” he said.

“Have fun.”

When he left, she ran into her room to make her bed and tidy up. Nate would be here in ten minutes. Picking out the black nightie she bought just for him she started fixing her hair and slipping on a thin black lace thong and lay on her bed and waited for him to arrive. Lying there, all she could think of was Nate. He was everything she had ever dreamed of in a guy. He had the whole package, great smile, a sense of humour, a job, loyal to his family and friends, and especially awesome in bed. She was falling in love with him. Skylar had never had these kind of strong feelings for anyone but him. Sitting up, she looked at her clock, 7:45 p.m. She frowned. Maybe he had extra work to do. Sliding off her bed, she walked to the kitchen, grabbed a drink.

There was a knock at her door. Skylar made her way, and opened it.

“Damn, Skylar.” Dom smiled, appreciating what he saw.

Skylar smiled, twirling around, “Do you think Nate will like it?”

“If he doesn’t, there is seriously something wrong with him,” Dom said. “Is Chantal here?”

“No. Don’t know if she will be over tonight.”

“Okay, I’ll leave you to it. Have fun.” Smiling, he gave her a hug and left.

By 8:30 p.m., Nate still hadn’t arrived; maybe he had forgotten or fallen asleep. Well, she was going to surprise him. Pulling on her stilettos, she closed her door and walked over to his place. Opening his door softly, she made her way in. There were no lights on, only what seemed like a lamp coming from his room. Smiling, she quietly tiptoed down to his door. When she was close enough she could hear noises coming from the room. She stood in front of the door; it was ajar enough that she could see in. She opened it just a little further, then stopped. Her smile faded from her face.

Nate was tied up on his bed, naked as the day he was born. And the same girl from before was sliding up and down on his cock, right there.

She gripped the doorframe so she wouldn’t pass out at what was happening. The girl leaned back more, moving faster on him. Nate was pulling at the ropes that tied his hands to the headboard. She couldn’t believe this was happening again, how could he do this to her? She sobbed louder than she thought and the girl on him stopped and turned around. “Hello.” She started moving again on him, as she stared at her. “Do you really think he would ever be with anyone like you, darling? He’s not your type and, he was only using you to get back at me.” She laughed at Skylar. “Go home, little girl. You could never handle a man with his needs.”

The only thing Nate did was moan at what she was doing. Skylar felt sick to her stomach, she couldn’t be here in his house any more. She let go of the doorframe and ran out of his house
and back to hers. She didn’t bother closing her door properly. Stripping off the nightie and thong she jumped in her shower. Sliding down the wall, she couldn’t help but cry more, she had never cried this much in her life. How could she think she was falling for him, God she was stupid, thinking he would ever feel the same towards her. Scrubbing herself, she felt disgusting; she would never feel like this again.

He could go to hell for all she cared. She curled up at the bottom of her shower. She didn’t want to cry over him anymore, but she couldn’t help it, she loved him. That hurt just thinking about it. Tears were streaming down her face; she couldn’t stop it even if she tried.

Someone knocked and opened the bathroom door. “Skylar.”

God she hoped it wasn’t Nate. She couldn’t handle seeing him right now.

“Skylar, you all right?” It was Dom. She was glad it was him and not Nate. Skylar cried harder, her eyes hurt and her throat, too. She couldn’t say anything.

“Sweetie, what’s wrong?” He stood near the shower door, waiting for her to answer, “I’m going to open the door, okay?” Slowly, Dom pulled open the door and knelt in front of the shower, “Are you hurt anywhere?” he asked.

She couldn’t lift up her head, her whole body was numb. “Can you tell me what’s wrong?” Every time he said something, she cried more… She felt like a baby. “I’ll call Craig.” Dom stood up and reached for his phone.

              He dialled his number and waited.

“
Hey Dom, what’s up?”

“I’m not sure. I’m sitting here with Skylar, something’s wrong. Every time I ask what’s wrong, she keeps crying.”

“I’ll be there in five, stay there with her, and keep talking to her, okay?”

“
Will do, see you soon,” Dom answered. Placing his phone near the sink, he sat down and opened the door, again “Craig is on his way.” Leaning over rubbing her back. The water was too cool for her so he turned on the hot water and swirled the head away to stop it running over her face. “Let me get you out of here, you’ll turn into a prune.”

Skylar sat up slowly, still covering herself as she nodded. Lifting himself up, he reached for a towel to cover her. Turning off the water, he wrapped the towel around her as much as he could. Dom picked her up and placed her on the toilet seat. Drying himself off, he picked her up off the toilet and placed her on the bed as he lay down beside her. She curled up as much as she could near him, her whole body was shaking from crying, and she couldn’t stop it. Dom’s phone rang, “Hey, where are you?”

“Chantal just rang, her car is playing up. I’m going to pick her up quickly and I’ll be there soon,” Craig said.

“No worries. I’ve got her in bed now; I’ll stay with her until you get here.”

“Thank you.”

He hung up his phone, maybe he should ring Nate. “Do you want me to get Nate for you, Sky?”
