Arms folded, he waited.
Within a minute,she spun around and cried out, dropping the saucepan of spaghetti she’d beenholding. He knew from personal experience she was eating her food out of thepan rather than get another plate. She hated doing dishes.
“You’re not supposedto be here.”
“I know.”
“You lied toRhianna.”
“Does it surpriseyou?”
“No, I should haveknown.” She went to bend down to clean up the mess.
“Stop.”
“Why?”
“You know why.”
“This isn’t goingto happen. You’ve got plenty of women. You’ve got entire clubs of them. A haremat your beck and call.”
“Then tell me whyit’s you I want.”
“Because you wantwhat you can’t have.”
He smiled. “Areyou so sure about that?”
“Yes.”
“Then tell me whyyour nipples are rock-hard.”
“It’s cold.”
“And now you’re lying.If you were cold, you wouldn’t be walking around half-naked and I have to say,Claire, you can dance around my apartment naked all you want.” He stared at hertits as he couldn’t get enough of them.
“This isn’t goingto happen.”
He crossed thekitchen, pressing her up against the fridge once again, trapping her in place.
“You want it,” hesaid.
“You’re Rhianna’sbrother.”
“I know who I am.”
“And you don’tcare. She hated all the girls who tried to chase after you. Who befriended herjust to get close to you,” she said.
“And you’realready best friends with her. You didn’t seek out friendship with her just toget to me. If so, you’ve been playing this game a long time.” He stroked hisfinger down her arm, hearing the slight catch in her voice.
“You know Ihaven’t.”
“Then how about Igive you … a choice.”
“It’s simple, I’mnot sleeping with you.”
“I don’t sleepwith women, Claire. I fuck, plain and simple. Therewill be no snuggling, no sleeping, just you enjoyingmy dick.”
“You’re a pig.”
“And you like it,”he said. He cupped her between her thighs and she cried out, moaning as he usedhis palm once again to rub her pussy. “Your mouth is lying to you again.”
“Just because mybody wants you doesn’t mean I’m going to give in to it.”
“No, how aboutthis. You give me one month, thirty-one days, and I will give you an apartmentand you name your price.”
“I’m not a whore.”
“You want tobenefit from this arrangement?” he asked.
“I have a job. Idon’t need money.”
“But you do needan apartment and the places you’ve looked at are not good enough. Thirty-onedays, and I’ll make every single one of your desires come true. In return,whenever I want you, however I want you, you’ll come to me, begging, wet, andready. I will have complete, unlimited access to your body to do with as Iplease.”
“You’re crazy. Youthink I don’t know about you? I haven’t heard what people have said, that Idon’t know what you’re capable of. I saw what you did to Tony.”
“He deserved itand I bet you liked seeing him pay.” He cupped her face. “Not too long ago,this pretty face had a nice little bruise on it from his handiwork, so don’t gotelling me you’ve got feelings for an asshole who doesn’t deserve it.”
She jerked out ofhis hold but with him blocking her path, she couldn’t go anywhere. “You couldhurt me.”
“It goes withoutsaying that anything you experience with me will be consensual, legal, and Iwill not under any circumstances hurt you or leave a scar on this pretty body.”He pressed his cock close to her, letting her feel him. “You’re tempted, I cantell. The look in your eyes, it’s one I remember well.”
When he put hishand back on her pussy, she cried out. Sliding beneath her panties, he groanedat how soaking wet she was. “You’ve been a good girl all your life. Don’t youwant to have some fun? Rhianna will never have to know. I won’t tell her.”
“I don’t want youto pay me,” she said.
He smiled. “Thenthe apartment we use is mine. It will belong to me, but it’ll be where you cometo when I need you. Got it? After tonight, this place is out of bounds.”
She nodded.
“I’m going to needyou to agree,” he said.
“You want me tosay it out loud? That you can fuck me?”
He slammed hislips down on hers, pulling his fingers from her pussy, Grippingher ass, he lifted her and went straight to his bedroom. He didn’t have time towait. His cock ached to be inside her. Gabriel didn’t expect to last the fullthirty-one days though. Once he had his fill and was bored, their agreementwould come to an end.
Dropping her onthe end of the bed, he cupped her face, ravishing her lips once more. After hestepped back, he opened up his belt, staring at her. Her cheeks were flushed.
“Take off yourclothes,” he said.
“Maybe we shouldturn the light off,” she said.
“Take off yourclothes. I don’t like to repeat myself, so you’re going to have to get used todoing as you’re told.”
She stood up andhe wondered if she was going to hit him. He wouldn’t mind. He rather liked theidea that she wasn’t afraid of him. She grabbed the bottom of her shirt and slowly pulled it up over her head. She wore a matching bra.It was a nice color, but not sexy enough. She flicked the catch and her breastssprang free, and he groaned.
They were big,with nice-sized red nipples he’d been thinking of sucking.
“Now the panties,”he said.
She bent forwardand he wished she was in front of a mirror, but therewould be plenty of time for that. Watching her now, she wriggled out of thepanties and they dropped to the floor.
“Leave them,” hesaid. “Climb on the bed. Spread your legs, let me see what now belongs to me.”
Claire slid on thebed, lifted her legs so her feet were flat on the bed, and opened her thighs,showing him. She had a small smattering of curls but there was no mistaking thearousal clinging to her.
He crawled ontothe bed, putting a hand on her knee and holding herwide.
“Touch yourpussy,” he said.
“What?”
“You heard me. Idon’t like to repeat myself.”
“You keep doing itfor me.”
He gripped herhips and spun her around, gripping her ass tightly. After
