Oh, this just kept getting more and more complicated.
Chapter Four
Her touch was almost more than he could bear.
Five long years he’d spent imagining what it would be like to have a woman’s hand on his body. Years spent closing his eyes, lying back on his bunk and stroking himself when he could bear the loneliness no longer.
Five years of hatred and waiting, lifting weights in the yard and plotting his escape.
Five years knowing everything he’d worked so hard for could be stolen at any moment.
It overwhelmed him.
He suddenly thrust against her hand powerfully. She gasped. Skittish as all hell, and afraid, too. He knew he should care, knew he shouldn’t take her, but he’d be damned if he’d stop now. Taking care of men like him was her job. She might say she wasn’t that kind of masseuse, but he knew better. Williams wasn’t the kind of man who would go for a straight massage. Her nimble fingers slid up and down his cock, cupping and squeezing him in a way that made him want to explode on the spot. Back and forth across his flesh, skin tightening with every motion.
He shifted, and trying not to imagine what it would feel like to push her back, thrust his knee between her legs, and fuck her hard. She’s a whore, she expects it, his cock whispered greedily. Don’t push her too hard, his brain cautioned. She’ll break.
Her fingers came closer and closer to the head of his cock with every stroke. The little ridge of skin that defined it twitched as she edged toward it; then her fingers grazed his most sensitive spot.
“Not there,” he muttered, and she stilled. “If you touch me there I’ll come off like a rocket, and I want to enjoy this a little longer.”
She started moving again and he made himself focus on more than just the feel of her hot skin rubbing him. The smell of her hair, wet with just a trace of floral scent. Shampoo?
It was better than any perfume he’d imagined in the joint.
Her breasts formed taut peaks against his chest as if aroused, burning into him like hot pokers. He knew it was probably from the cold, but that didn’t matter to his hungry body. If only she were wet for him, too. His hand reached down automatically, he wanted to check. He felt her breath catch as she realized what he was doing and he stopped.
He wasn’t going to touch her there. If he touched her, he’d fuck her. He didn’t want her screaming and crying, didn’t want to hurt her.
So instead he forced his hand back, took a deep breath and spoke.
“You can start moving again,” he said gruffly.
Her fingers flexed around his taut flesh and he grunted. The tension in his body leapt back to where it’d been just seconds before; he wasn’t going to last long. Her strong hand moved up and down, and without thinking he pushed against her. Her fingers tightened again, and she squeezed him. He thrust once more, and this time her fingers squeezed in time with his movements. They fell into a rhythm, him thrusting his hips and her fingers caressing him. The blood sped through his body, pounding in his ears, making his breathing grow harsh.
Tension curled inward in his body and he grew harder. His balls tightened, gathering for his release, and then he exploded in her hand. His seed blew out with explosive force and he grunted, thrusting into her hand as she pumped him dry. For one second darkness took over his vision, the sheer animal pleasure of his orgasm more than he could comprehend. He lay there, sucking air into his lungs and sweating, for what seemed like eternity. She stayed next to him, frozen, her hand still cupping his softening cock. For a moment he wondered if she was trying to harden him again, but then he realized the truth.
She was afraid to move her hand without permission.
“You can let go,” he grunted. She pulled away instantly, rolling as far away from him across the bed as she could.
Absently, he noted that the plane had leveled off.
“We can take a shower now,” he said, and he heard her breath catch.
“Together?” she asked breathlessly.
“No, you can go by yourself,” he said slowly. An image of her body, dripping with warm, wet water entered his head and he almost moaned aloud.
She’d only taken the edge off so far.
“Alone,” he replied. “But don’t take a long time. I might change my mind.”
“I’ll go fast,” she said, voice fervent. She rolled out of the bed, trying to take the sheet with her as a cover.
“Leave it,” he said shortly. Watching her was half the joy; he wasn’t going to give it up that easily.
She stood quickly and crossed her arms across her barely covered breasts. He wondered if she had any idea how sexy she looked. Her hair hung down around her shoulders in scraggly lines, and the little red thong she wore hardly covered a thing. Her hands and the lace-bound breasts they covered were more of a taunt than anything.
He felt himself stir once more as she moved quickly past the side of the bed to the small bathroom, lurching as she walked. The air was fairly smooth, especially considering what a storm raged outside, but he could still feel the motion of the plane around them. He heard the shower come on and imagined her in there. Her fingers were probably sticky with his seed. He’d be willing to bet she’d wash it off first, eager to remove any trace of his touch from her body. There were splashes of it on her belly as well, and he thought about her hands rubbing against the creamy flesh as she cleaned it off.
Did she have any idea how soft and smooth her skin was?
He was willing to bet she didn’t.
She probably took her flesh for granted, never thinking twice about what a treat it would be for a man like him. Of course, he wouldn’t have had any idea either before he went into the joint. Nobody could.
He rolled on to his back, crossing his hands behind his hand and looking up at the cabin ceiling. They were still over the States, but he doubted he had anything to worry about. Not in a plane like this. Trust Valzar to get appointed as a diplomat. What the hell were they thinking? That was certainly putting the fox in charge of the henhouse.
He heard the water shut off, and he smiled with bitter amusement.
She didn’t want him joining her.
A moment later the door opened and she came back into the room, a white towel clutched around her body.
“I thought you might like to shower next,” she said, sidling back into the room.
“You were afraid I’d come in there,” he said, watching her coolly. She probably thought holding the towel tight to her body provided cover. Instead it simply teased him with her curves.
His cock stirred to life.
“Although it’d be nice if you offered to wash me,” he said slowly. She froze, eyes cutting through him.
“Perhaps another time. I don’t want you to think I don’t appreciate what you’ve done for me already.”
She simply looked at him, eyes haunted.
He rolled out of the bed abruptly, coming to his feet in one smooth motion. She jumped back and he laughed.
“I’m just going to shower,” he said, looking at her pointedly. “Trust me, when I decide to fuck you, you’ll know it.”
She didn’t reply, and he laughed again. Her fear should have made him sick. Instead it simply awakened his hunter’s instinct. He considered making her fears come true but decided against it.
There would be plenty of time when they landed.
She watched in a daze as he stalked into the bathroom.
When he was gone she could hardly imagine he’d been there. He was too unreal, too scary. It reminded her of the one time she’d tried drugs during college. Intense, scary, almost unbelievable when it ended.
