My hands move to the back of his head, clutching his hair in my fists as we fight to get closer to one another. The water swooshes around us as I straddle him inside the giant bathtub. Despite the size of this thing, getting our bearings takes a few moments.

I pull away, out of breath. “Baby, we need to slow down.”

The desire in his eyes, the raw, animalistic hunger is staring back at me. God, I want to combust as I stare back at this gorgeous man. I almost hate myself for wasting time over the last few months.

I lean my body forward, pulling him closer to me as he places his mouth on mine. Every kiss becomes harder, more aggressive, and demanding. He wants to own me—now, here, in this moment. He commands me with his eyes to ride him slowly—an agonizing pace which drives us both insane yet at the same time heightens our senses.

I crumple beneath his touch. Every

lick and caress of my heated skin causes me to moan louder. Haden murmurs my name, each syllable dragging against his lips with a raw growl that lingers as he kisses the sweet spot behind my ear.

I wait with bated breath, anticipating his next move, his next touch. My breasts are exposed, water cascading off the tip of my nipples with bubbles surrounding the curve of my breasts. He devours them like a wild beast looking for its next feed, grating his teeth ever so gently as I arch my back and moan in delight.

Impatiently, I push back and grind myself against him, his piercing hitting just the right spot. I’m coming undone, desperate to go faster if it weren’t for the water spilling over the tub.

“You’re so fucking beautiful,” he mumbles, nipping at the base of my neck. “The first day I met you, you wore this thin dress. I turned up the AC because your nipples were hard as fuck. Do you know how many times I jerked off to you?”

My heavy breathing becomes a laugh. “You saw that? It was always so cold when you were around.”

He responds with a sly grin, then buries his head between my breasts before circling his tongue around my nipple.

My back arches, the sensation so unbearable I’m ready to tell him I want to finish now.

“I did.” He breathes warmth against my skin. “You were so goddamn hot. There was this bet going on, and let’s say that I threw a ton of money at those fuckers not to go near you.”

“I should be annoyed. But let’s face it, you would have had me one way or another. And now you’re mine.”

He kisses me deeply, letting out a moan. Haden loves it when I claim him.

“Tell me…” he questions with a smirk, “… are you ready?”

I nod, in love with the way his eyes speak more than his words. His lips crash against mine again, kissing me deeply before he pulls back and stares. He doesn’t move, taking shallow breaths and maintaining his steady gaze.

“Why are you looking at me this way?” I keep my voice low, conscious of the fact that his eyes haven’t left mine.

“Because I could have lost you. I’m so fucking in love with you, it hurts.”

“Ditto.” I smile. “Now, make me come because I’m dying.”

He focuses his attention back on my lips, kissing my mouth with urgency and leaving me without a single breath to catch. My nails claw across his back, which I am sure are leaving marks.

With every move Haden makes, I fall deeper under his spell, allowing him to ravage my body to make up for the time lost.

I’m begging my body to hold on and last just a few minutes longer as he continues to fondle my breasts, while biting his lip. I can see he is awfully close.

My phone begins to ring on the vanity. I brought it in here in case of an emergency if Gemma needs us. We both stop and look at the number. It’s Katrina Mayflower.

“I have to take this,” I tell him.

“Presley, you’re kidding me, right? My dick is inside you.”

“Hello, Katrina?”

I don’t give Haden a chance to say anything, ignoring his hands on my hips as he continues to grind me slowly.

“Hi, Presley, just a quick call. I’m about to take off. Look, your pitch was one of the best I’ve heard. My lawyers have read the contract, and I’m all yours.”

My muscles tighten from excitement causing me to almost drop the phone into the water. “Katrina, you don’t understand how excited I am to work with you. We’re going to do great things.”
