Grecia settles in the armchair opposite me with her gaze locked on mine. Her eyes shimmer like gemstones, holding riches beyond my imagination.

“Are you going to admit you want me?” I ask, pushing off the sofa and stalking toward her.

A slight tremble travels through her body at my proximity, and I smile.

“Why would I do something stupid like that?”

“Because you’ve wanted me to fuck you since the moment we were old enough to know what that meant,” I tell her.

She may not remember those days, but I certainly do. It’s taken the fear of losing her, though, for me to finally admit to Grecia that I want her too.

“You’re still the asshole you’ve always been,” she bites out.

Tilting my head to the side, I regard her for a few seconds before I lean even closer until I can feel her hot breath on my cheek.

That’s when I whisper along the shell of her ear, “Why change a habit of a lifetime, sweetheart?”

Even though Grecia’s as turned on as I am, I’ve learned from past experience she’s not going to be a pushover. But I love a challenge.

Grecia’s hands land on my shoulders, and I expect her to push me away, but she shocks the shit out of me by leaping into my arms. She wraps her legs around my waist and laughs when I grab hold of her pert ass and give it a squeeze. Soon every inch of her is going to be licked by my tongue.

“Time to give you my special attention.”

She leans back so she can meet my gaze.

“Your special attention. Now that sounds like something I can definitely get on board with,” she quips playfully, and I nod as I walk us out the room and up the stairs toward the bedroom I’m using.

CHAPTER 16

TARIAN

In the dimly lit room, I gently lower Grecia to her feet, and when she’s standing, I step aside. She moves through the space as if she owns it. She most certainly owns me now.

If challenged, I’d have to admit Grecia’s owned me since the first time I truly looked at her in college, maybe even before. From the moment her pretty eyes landed on mine, I could see her inner strength. She wore her resilience like a perfume as she held her head high above the shit we grew up around.

“Is this what you’ve wanted for the past few months? To bring me to a bedroom so you can have your wicked way with me,” she sasses me with an arched brow.

I can’t deny that I’m tempted to bend her over and mark her ass with my handprint. I’d enjoy that more than anything, but I’m not sure of her limitations. I don’t know what she’s willing to try.

“Stop being a brat, Grecia,” I tell her as I move into the room and toward the glass doors that lead out onto the bedroom balcony.

“I’ve watched you break so many hearts, Tarian, especially in the last few months,” she tells me, and I realize that no matter how hard I’ve tried to hide the number of women who’ve been in my bed, she’s seen them all.

I’ve been using hookups to forget Grecia exists, but I’ve found that each time I’m with one of them, it’s her face that comes to mind.

“And?” I challenge as I open the balcony doors to allow the chill of the night breeze to sweep through the bedroom. I need it to cool me because my blood is red-hot as it races through my veins.

“I know what you were doing,” she says, brushing past me and stepping out onto the balcony beyond.

I watch as her hands grip the steel railing, and I take in the curves of her hourglass figure that have tempted me all these years.

Right now, it doesn’t matter that we’re not in my home. All I can think about is that we’re in a bedroom and alone together, finally. There won’t be any interruptions this time. There’s nothing to stop me from claiming what’s mine.

When I join her on the balcony, I stand behind her, close enough so the curve of her ass presses against my groin. My mouth trails over the shell of her ear as I lean in, and I feel the shiver that trickles through her.

“I was trying to forget you, Grecia. But I couldn’t get you out of my mind,” I whisper in her ear. “I realize now I was waiting for you to come to me, goddess. I wanted you to make the first move.” With every word that falls from my lips, she leans back until her body is flush with mine. “You see, Grecia, I always get what I want. I’m a Crown. It’s in my blood.”

“Do you think that’s what makes you so irresistible?” she questions as she turns, and her tits press against my chest.
