Seeds of Desire (10 page)

He nodded. “Understood. I’ll leave you alone.”

“That isn’t what I mean!” she said, exasperated.

“Then what do you mean?”

She regarded him—his bare chest, his long legs. His eyes,
watching her expectantly. Even though she’d thought she disliked the man, she’d
grown used to being around him. Somewhere in a part of herself she’d learned to
ignore, she cared for him.

And wanted him. The moisture between her legs proved that.

The first time he’d seen her, he’d known she belonged in his
life. It had taken her a little longer to realize it. Now that she had, maybe
she needed to get out of her own way and take what she wanted.

“Last night, you jerked off on the other side of that wall.”
Her words surprised her. She hadn’t planned on bringing that up. “Did it on
purpose to make me listen to you.”

He nodded. “Yes. I think we already figured that out.”

“I heard you.” She stepped closer to him. “I didn’t get to
see you.”

One of his eyebrows quirked. “Um, you walked into my room,
took out my dick, sucked me and rode me like crazy. What exactly didn’t you
see?”

“I didn’t see you touching yourself.” Playing with his cock
and sucking him had been hot as hell. That control over him had pushed her over
the edge. The thought of watching him stroke his own cock while he looked at
her, though, made her shiver with heightened arousal.

His eyes widened. “You want to watch me play with myself?”

“Yes.” She tugged at his waistband. “If you take these off,
I’ll take off my shirt. Give you something to look at while you do it instead
of just your own fantasies. Get yourself off for me, Jared.”

Never in her life had she asked a man to do anything like
that. Part of her cringed at her boldness. Most of her didn’t care. For once,
she would go for what she wanted. And she’d finally decided to acknowledge that
she wanted him.

First, she wanted payback for what he’d done the night
before. Putting her in that state without giving her a chance to act on her
desire. Now she would show him exactly what he’d done.

“Fuck,” he murmured. “I never thought you’d be so demanding,
Cass. Last night and today, you’ve really surprised me.”

“Is it a problem?”

“God, no.” He unfastened his slacks. “I think it’s fucking
hot as hell. But if I’m going to do this for you, I want to be the one to take
off your shirt. Give me a little kick-start, so to speak.”

“Ask me right,” she said softly.

He tilted his head. “And how is that?”

“Tell me what you want,” she said slowly. “Tell me what you
want to do to me. Ask me if I want it too. Don’t just assume.”

“Ah, I think I understand. Even though you didn’t have the
same courtesy with me.” Looking thoughtful, Jared leaned against the bureau. “I
want to make love to you. I want to see your breasts and kiss and touch them. I
want to go down on you and make you explode from the touch of my tongue on your
clit.”

Cassidy shuddered and he grinned at her reaction.

“I want to slide slowly inside you,” he continued, “and move
gently until we can’t stand it anymore, then fuck you so hard that the bed
bangs against the wall until we both lose it completely. And this time, I think
I might want to be on top. No pinning me down. I’m going to run my hands over
ever millimeter of your body while my dick’s in your hot, wet pussy. But
first…” He stepped toward her and grasped her shirt again. “First, I want to
peel these clothes off you inch by inch and look at every bit of that gorgeous
body of yours. And while I’m looking, I want to stroke my cock until I come for
you. I want you to finger-fuck yourself while you watch me do it. Now, do you
want that too?”

Desire coursed through her. Images formed in her mind of the
two of them, just as Jared described, and an involuntary moan escaped her. She
wanted everything he’d said, and his wish to strip her especially excited her.
Being undressed by a man was one of her unfulfilled fantasies. The few partners
she’d had had always been in too much of a hurry to take the time to remove her
clothes.

“Yes,” she whispered.

“Thank you, dear lady.” He grinned. “Now hold up your arms.”

She raised her arms above her head, and he pulled her shirt
off slowly, careful to avoid her injury. Under the shirt, she had on the same
bra she’d worn all day, one of her older ones in keeping with the idea of
wearing clothes she didn’t mind ruining. She wished she’d put on something
nicer. Then again, she hadn’t anticipated this.

Jared didn’t seem to notice the condition of her
undergarment. He unfastened the bra and tossed it onto the bed, where it landed
on top of her shirt. “I didn’t say you could take that off,” Cassidy protested
weakly.

“You also didn’t say I couldn’t,” he pointed out. “I said I
wanted to see your naked tits while I jerk off. I don’t have X-ray vision, you
know.”

He rolled her nipples between thumbs and forefingers. Sparks
shot through her from his touch straight to her cunt. She let out a small
sound, half whimper, half moan, and gasped. “I know I didn’t say you could do
that.”

“Do you like it?” he whispered.

“Yes.”

“Then do you want me to stop, since I didn’t ask
permission?” He sounded as if he already knew the answer.

“Yes, because this isn’t what I told you to do.” She stepped
back, just out of reach, and held her breasts in her hands. “Look but don’t
touch. And take off those goddamn pants before I do it for you.”

He caught his breath. “Holy shit. Do you have any idea how
much you’re fucking turning me on right now, bossing me around like that?”

A thrill ran through her. She’d never been this aggressive
with a man before, and it was so hot she was surprised her clothes didn’t melt
off. Knowing Jared enjoyed it as much as she did increased her heat. “No, I
have no idea at all. Why don’t you show me?”

“I think if you want to see, you should see for yourself.”

She moved forward and grabbed his waistband to tug him
closer. He held up his hands in surrender as she swiftly undid his pants and
shoved them to his ankles.

At the front of his boxer-briefs, his cock bulged
appealingly. She ran her finger along it and he moaned.

“Keep doing that.”

“I don’t think so.” She yanked the boxers and licked her
lips as a vision came to her of herself on her knees in front of him, taking
his tantalizing shaft in her mouth.

But she wouldn’t do that yet. Not until he put on his little
show for her.

“Do it,” she commanded. She cupped her breasts in her hands.
“Look at these and play with your cock. I want to watch.”

Without a word, he grasped himself and stroked firmly. His
eyelids slipped to half-mast but he continued to look at her. Just like in her
dream, a small droplet formed at the slit in his cock head. Cassidy reached out
to it, then stopped herself.
Not yet. There will be plenty of time after he
shows me what I want to see.

With a disappointed sigh, he opened his eyes. “No touch?”

“Oh, you’ll have plenty of touch.” She gave him an evil
little grin. “Your own. You had so much fun jerking off while I listened, you
should want to do it while I watch.” She rubbed her thumbs over her nipples and
shuddered at the heightened arousal the move brought.

He licked his lips and stroked himself faster. Their eyes
met and she held his gaze, smiling triumphantly.
I wonder how far he’ll go
if I tell him to.

She let her hands fall to her sides and just watched him.
Until he begged for it, she had no intention of touching him, as much as she
wanted to. Images filled her mind, her hand replacing his on his cock, gripping
him firmly, stroking him. In her imagination, she cupped his balls with her
free hand and ran her tongue down his shaft.

Shivering at the flames that licked her nipples and slit,
she closed her eyes.

“Look,” Jared said hoarsely. “You wanted to watch me. Look
at me.”

“You don’t get to tell me what to do.”

She opened her eyes and stepped closer to him. Giving into
her impulse, she touched her finger to the moisture at his tip, then stuck the
finger in her mouth. Sweet saltiness caressed her tongue and she had to lock
her knees to keep from dropping to suck him.

He let out a long breath. “Fuck, that’s sexy. Do it again.”

“Do what?” She ran her wet finger over her taut nipples and
shivered. “That?”

In response, he gripped himself so tightly it looked
painful. His expression showed no pain, however, only desire. Desire she
shared. Moisture gathered in her cunt and a pulse beat within her, demanding
that she fuck him.

Watching him follow her command she grew even wetter, but
she didn’t want him to stop yet.

“Cassidy,” he groaned, as he had the night before.

“Yes?” She raised her eyebrows. “May I help you?”

“Oh, you know what you can do for me.”

He released himself and stepped toward her.

Laughing, she moved back as he approached, until she bumped
into the bed. “This isn’t part of the deal,” she said. “I told you to play with
that nice, hard cock of yours.”

“I’m done playing,” he growled.

He took another step forward and she fell backward onto the
bed. He pounced, landed on his knees straddling her and propped his hands on
either side of her. She trembled at the sheer animal lust on his face.

“You don’t have permission for this yet!”

In response, he bent and sucked her nipple between his lips.
The slight pressure of his teeth on her intensified her arousal. If he wanted,
he could bite down, cause her pain. He wouldn’t, though. She knew that as
surely as she knew she wouldn’t do anything to hurt him. Tease the hell out of
him, yes. But never hurt.

He lightly scraped his teeth over the hard nub in his mouth.
Fire shot straight to her cunt and she cried out wordlessly.
Fuck me!
She
refused to say it out loud.
God, please fuck me!

“Who’s in charge now?” he murmured without releasing his
mouthful.

She swatted the side of his head, then took a fistful of his
short hair and tugged. “Get off. I did not say you could do this.”

He swirled his tongue around her breast. “Nope, but see, I
got tired of taking orders.” His hand slipped between her legs, barely brushing
against her clit. Even that minute contact made her ache. “Do you really want
me to stop?”

Her deep breath was broken by pants as he tickled the edges
of her soaking slit. As much as she’d loved commanding him, as fevered a pitch
as her desire had reached watching him do as she said, she no longer cared who
ordered whom. Sparks shot through her cunt from his touch and she could barely
think clearly enough to gasp, “God, no!”

“I didn’t think so.” He licked one nipple. “Tell you what.
You give me blanket permission to do whatever I want to this sexy body of
yours, and I’ll make you feel better than you ever have in your life.”

“Cocky. Arrogant.” She moaned again as his lips brushed her
neck.

Cocky, arrogant and completely right. Jared’s skin against
hers, his tongue on her, all felt better than anything ever had. All her
fantasies about him had come to life. She had him where she’d never dared admit
she wanted him, and that alone heated her to the boiling point. If she stopped
him now, she might lose her mind from horniness.

He nibbled her earlobe and she quivered. How did he know
just the right spots to bring her simmer to a sizzle?

“Fine, permission granted.”

He grinned and winked at her. “Thought you’d see it my way.”

He pulled her into a kiss, deep and filled with the promise
of more to come. His hand continued exploring. At a light touch on her clit,
Cassidy shivered. God, she wanted him! Her desire still confused the hell out
of her but she no longer questioned it. She’d misjudged him, and nothing he’d
ever said to her had anything to do with now.

What mattered was his hand between her legs, his lips on
hers. His tongue penetrated her mouth and she sucked it, eliciting a muffled
moan from him. Her cunt grew wetter, preparing for his cock.

He broke the kiss and stared at her. “You are fucking
beautiful.” His voice was husky, thick with lust. “Don’t stop me, Cass. I need
to fuck you.”

Chapter Nine

At his words, she grew wetter still. Knowing how badly he
wanted her, she almost rolled onto him and took him without hesitation. But she
didn’t move, feeling his eyes tracing every millimeter of her body. She wanted
to watch him look at her.

That expression in his gaze. The lust and something more.
She wanted that now and in the future. Whatever they did wouldn’t end tonight.
They wouldn’t only be fucking.

Her eyes widened as she looked into his. She would fuck him,
hell yeah. But she didn’t only lust after him. Somewhere deep inside, she’d
begun to love him.

That would definitely complicate the job.

He smiled at her astonishment. “Yeah, I know. Don’t say it.
Some things don’t need to be said. Just fuck me, Cassidy. We can talk after,
but I’m going to go freaking insane if I don’t feel your pussy around my cock.”

A little thrill rushed through her and she grinned. “I think
I’d like that. Stop playing with me, then, and let’s get to business.”

“Oh, this isn’t business.” He kissed her forehead. “This
will definitely be pleasure.”

He pulled her on top of him. His cock rested against her.
With just a slight movement, she would have it inside her, but she didn’t make
that move. She didn’t know if she dared.

“You don’t know what you want right now, do you?” Jared
moved his hands over her ass. “Do you want to fuck me or suck me? Or have me eat
your sweet little pussy?” He winked. “Too many decisions, huh?”

“I want it all,” she whispered. “It’s just a matter of
figuring out which order I want them in. And, uh, do you have another condom?”
Maybe passion had taken over, but she wouldn’t be stupid about it.
