Chapter 52
~~ MICHAEL ~~
I closed my office door and leaned back against it. I’d just seen Lily and Lucien hug each other, followed by Lily leaning into Lucien to kiss him. Okay, she kissed him on his cheek and they were laughing. What the hell was going on?
Control, that’s what I needed. I knew deep down that nothing was going on between them, but I couldn’t seem to stop the jealousy that flared up and take me completely off guard.
I loved her and was terrified of losing her, which was the problem.
She knocked on my door and tried to open it. I stepped away and in she walked.
“Michael, what’s wrong?” she asked and stood in front of me with her hands on my arms.
“You kissed him,” I blurted out.
She was speechless at first, then she took hold of my face and kissed me. “He’s your brother. He took me for coffee. He walked me the last couple of floors up here. I hugged him and kissed him on his cheek to say thank you and take care.”
“Why did you walk the last few floors?”
She grinned. “Jacky was in the elevator with a couple of friends, so Lucien pretended to be all over me.” She kept her eyes locked with mine. “He snuggled into my neck and pretended he was nibbling it or something, but what he was really doing was nothing, just trying his best not to laugh.” She looked up at me. “Michael, I promise you that’s all it was.”
She looked close to tears as she pulled away from me. She walked over and sat on the sofa. “I can’t keep doing this.” She wiped a tear away. “I can’t keep explaining myself to you every time you get the wrong idea. I’m your girlfriend and he’s your brother. You need to trust us. Lucien needs a friend and I want to be that friend for him, but I can’t handle you questioning me every time I see him. You need to trust me like I do you.”
She had me panicked after what she’d just said. I sure as hell didn’t want to drive her away, plus she was right, I had to stop questioning her every move.
I sat next to her on the sofa and pulled her into me. “I’m sorry Lily, so very sorry. I do trust you and I know deep down that you wouldn’t cheat on me, it’s just getting my mouth to catch up to my brain.” She chuckled. “Here, let me.” I moved her away from me and used some tissues to wipe her tears away.
“You’re so beautiful, you take my breath away.”
She climbed astride me, which I didn’t think was such a good idea, considering her dress was practically around her hips.
“Lily, the door isn’t locked.”
“I know.”
Then she kissed me. As she nibbled along my bottom lip, she moved her p-ssy right over the top of my erection, which was straining for freedom. When she licked along the seal of my lips, I opened my mouth and fused our tongues together. I took her head into my hands and held her there as we continued to eat each other. We both moaned into each other’s mouths as she rode the ridge of my cock.
“This wasn’t supposed to happen,” she moaned and threw her head back.
My cock was rock hard in my trousers and desperately wanted to be in her wet heat, but instead, I let her continue to ride me. I pulled the neckline of her dress down over one breast and then the cup of her bra, before I put my mouth and tongue on her.
She came apart in my arms while I sucked her nipple and pressed her into my aching shaft. If she didn’t stop writhing around on me, I was going to come in my trousers.
I pulled my mouth away from her breast and made sure her bra and dress covered her. With all the strength I had, I lifted her from my lap and set her next to me.
We both leaned back against the back of the sofa and I couldn’t help but arch my hips. I was desperate to come and it would probably only take a couple of caresses.
With my eyes shut, I felt my zipper go down as my cock sprang free into Lily’s waiting hands. “I can’t leave you like this.”
I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t speak.
She moved her hand lower to my balls and took hold of me in her other hand. She squeezed my balls and fisted my cock, maybe twice, then I came all over my shirt. Before I could move, she leaned over and sucked me into her mouth, which nearly had me flying from the sofa.
“Just cleaning you up.” She swiped her tongue around the head of my penis a few times before she fastened my trousers. She unbuttoned my shirt, pulled it off and walked into the bathroom to grab a clean one from the closet.
She was licking her lips as she walked back to me, which set my blood roaring again. “You better put this on, and for the rest of the day, I’m going to stay out there. I can’t be near you without wanting you.”
“In my defense, I only intended to comfort you after I’d made you cry. I wasn’t expecting you to attack me.” I grinned at her.
She grinned back. “Tonight I’m tying you to your bed. I hope you’re ready.” She walked out of my office, leaving me stunned…. and aroused.
F*ck. I quickly fastened my shirt and tucked it into my trousers. I sat at my desk, but looked out of the window at the city below, not really taking anything in.
I really needed to do what I told Lily and that was attach my mouth to my brain before I put my foot in it again. I would take her out for dinner in a few days, when we could have a lazy morning, to apologize again for not trusting her. I knew I had a hard time with trust, but we couldn’t carry on with me not trusting her every time she went somewhere without me. I did trust her, it was just a few times when I forgot and went all possessive on her.
I stood from my desk and walked to the door, leading me out to talk to Lily. I was about to open it fully when I heard her say, ‘David’. Was he on the phone?
Instead of going back to my desk, I leaned against the wall and listened.
“David, I’m not interested in going back to you.”
Silence, while he obviously talked.
“I’ll tell you this for the last time, I’m not going back to you. I’m happier now than I’ve ever been, so I would appreciate it if you would leave me alone. Have a good life, because I intend to – with Michael.”
She hung up the phone.
I couldn’t believe what I’d overheard. It thrilled me to know that she planned to spend the rest of her life with me, regardless of my caveman tendencies.
“You heard.”
I jumped. She caught me. “Yeah.”
“He wanted me back. I don’t think things are working out with ‘Lucy’. I feel sad for him really, but I’m more happy with you than what I remember being with him.”
“Good.” I cleared my throat. “I was on my way out to ask you out to dinner in a couple of days.”
“You were?”
“Yeah, I thought we could go out when we didn’t have to get up for work the following day.”
“You have a one-track mind. As you’re the boss, do you think we could play hooky for the rest of the day?”
“That can be arranged. What’s the hurry?”
“I can’t concentrate on work. I’m too busy thinking about you naked. On your bed. At my mercy.”
“Christ, let me get my briefcase.”
I walked over to my desk, shoved whatever was on my desk into the briefcase, grabbed Lily’s hand and dragged her out of the offices and into my car before she could catch her breath.
