"Enjoy your flight."
I looked straight ahead. Jake was probably mad at me. I realized I was afraid to look at him.
Coward.
"Put on your seatbelt Elle."
Slowly I reached out and slid the buckle into place.
"How is your father?"
Silence.
I held my breath, feeling like the worst kind of heel for leaving him with a family crisis at hand.
Then Jake shifted in his seat. He was staring at me. I still couldn't bring myself to look at him.
"He's alright actually. He seemed to turn over a new leaf when I promised him I'd stay in Brentwood."
I closed my eyes. I knew what big concession that was to him. He'd never wanted to be a part of the machine that was Delancey Stables.
"Do you know why I promised him that Elle?"
I shook my head. The plane was picking up speed as it taxied down the runway. The tip of the plane began to lift.
"Look at me Elle."
I turned my head sideways and stared into his beautiful blue eyes.
"I did it because of you."
Chapter Eleven
Jake
I leaned over Elle's beautiful, helpless, naked body. She was tied spread eagle to the hotel bed. The very, very large hotel bed.
"So, how are you enjoying New York?"
She moaned as I traced my fingertip down her body.
"Please..."
I smiled at her and continued the teasing strokes. I'd been at this for over an hour. It was probably time to let her climax.
But not quite yet.
I leaned down, my breath fanning her skin with warm air. She was cool to the touch, thanks to the hotel's air conditioning. Slowly I stuck out my tongue, making a point. I dragged it across her skin, skimming her nipple.
"Ohhhh..."
I kept going, sliding down her body, licking and teasing as I went. Then I started at her ankles again and worked my way up. She was shivering by the time I'd kissed my way back up her body to her flushed face.
"Had enough?"
She nodded breathlessly as I started unbuttoning my shirt.
"Hmmm... should I untie you?"
"Whatever you want-just-"
"Just what? Just fuck you?"
She moaned as I rolled her nipple lightly between my thumb and forefinger.
"If I give you what you want, you have to promise me not to run away again."
I stood and took my pants off. Her eyes were glued to my body. She looked hungry. Famished really. I grinned. Jesus, she was gorgeous. And very, very responsive in the sack.
I'd never had more fun in my life.
She whimpered in pleasure as I lowered my naked body on top of hers. I felt my cock jerk, eager to get on with it.
Down boy, not just yet.
"Elle. I need your word."
"Yes. I promise - I -"
I thrust into her, holding perfectly still while we both adjusted to the sudden onslaught of sensations. I grinned down at the dazed looking beauty beneath me. I kissed her lips, pulling her juicy bottom lip into my mouth for a nip.
"That's all I wanted to hear."
I thrust into her slowly, kissing her as she rocked helplessly against me. In minutes she was shaking, quivering all over my shaft as she came. I grinned and reached up to untie her hands.
I didn't stop my slow thrusting as I reached down and untied one foot at a time. The moment she was loose, she tore into me, grabbing and holding and scratching.
Jesus, she was a hellcat.
My hellcat.
After all, she'd put me through hell.
I was going to make her pay for it too. Maybe I'd tie her up again. Get some ice cream ordered up from room service. Eat it off her while she squirmed.
Yes, that sounded like a very good idea. But not now. Now I was busy.
Later.
I rolled onto my back and watched her ride me. She wasn't being gentle as she rocked her hips faster and faster. She seemed determined to make both of us climax. Hard.
I felt my body fill with exquisite pleasure as I started to cum. I grabbed her hips and bucked upwards again and again, thrusting into her sweetness. It wasn't enough though. I wanted more.
I rolled her onto her back and drove into her again and again.
"Fuck!"
She was still writhing beneath me as I slowed down enough to let us both catch our breath. But I didn't withdraw. Her eyes widened when she felt me growing hard again.
I stared down at her and smirked. I grabbed her hands and held them above her head, reaching again for the robe sashes. I pulled them tight, tying her hands to the headboard.
It was going to be a long, long night for one naughty little runaway.
I'd make damn sure she never wanted to run again.
After tonight, she wouldn't dare.
Elle
I rolled over, finding the bed beside me cool and empty.
I looked around, wondering if he was gone. But he had told me he was keeping me. Like a pet poodle or something. I snorted. It was insulting, in a possessive alpha male kind of way. But I hadn't argued at the time.
I'd been too busy climaxing.
There was a shadowy form by the window. Jake was sitting in an easy chair in the dark. Watching me.
Stark relief flowed through my body.
