“I will hold you to your word, Razai. If I hear so much as a whisper of our name in conjunction to the ‘events,’ I will enthusiastically test exactly what you can handle.” Each word held its own bite. Its own promise.

“This was a helpful meeting,” my accomplice replied, cupping my ass while I choked down a groan. “But me and this lovely woman have business to attend to. Time for you to leave.”

Harlem growled something menacing under his breath. That was the last thing we heard before the door clicked shut.

And then we were alone.

All that remained was the beat of the music.

The pounding of my pulse on his.

We didn’t move. Didn’t budge. My grip tightened on his shoulders.

“Gray…” he exhaled, nuzzling into my neck. Only his rigid muscles betrayed the effort he was taking to control himself.

“Yeah?” I asked, dazed.

“If you want this to be where we end, stand up immediately. That’s the only warning you’ll get.”

Getting up made sense. Ending it here would be a logical choice. I barely knew Razai and giving in to this would bring a world of consequence down on me. Letting him in like this… it wasn’t worth it.

“Stand up.” The strained command was brittle enough to shatter.

“I… I can’t,” I shuddered.

And then, I did the unthinkable.

I kissed the motherfucking archangel.

His lips crashed into mine, licking and sucking. There was nothing soft or sweet about it. We wanted to devour each other alive.

My head swam as the ocean of lust flooded me. My back arched while he gripped my ass and ground his restrained cock against my pussy. My hands threaded through his hair, ran down his chest, cupped his face. I was so caught up in the overwhelming sensations that I didn’t know where to put them. I held him and kissed him, losing myself in his touch.

“Gods, you’re intoxicating,” he groaned against my mouth, then those lips trailed down my jaw and neck.

I gasped when he sank his teeth into the soft flesh of my neck. He instantly licked the tender spot, easing the pain with more pleasure.

“Please,” I begged, not sure exactly what I wanted from him. To keep going? To stop and have mercy on me? To touch me in every place that ached?

I couldn’t tell. I didn’t know. All that mattered was that he pulled me in like gravity. I wasn’t strong enough to stop him, and I seriously didn’t care to.

“You want this?” he asked. “Tell me.”

Champagne mingled on our tongues, hot and sweet. His touch traveled lower and lower until it slipped between my legs.

“I can feel how wet you are through this lace.” The words were gravel and silk in my ear. “You’ve been like this all night, haven’t you?”

“How should I know?” We both knew the answer was yes.

He nipped my bottom lip, teasing. “Your heart is pounding, love. Is that normal?”

“You talk way too much,” I moaned.

“And your body… fuck, your curves are exquisite,” he continued anyway. “See how your hips widen when you straddle me? How your thighs flex when you ride my lap?”

How he managed to make me blush in this situation was beyond me. “If you keep talking, I’ll probably have to put you down, Razai. Cut it out.”

His eyes brightened with intensity. Lust. Determination. He yanked me closer still, and when I tried to resist, he grabbed a fistful of my hair. “Keep still.”
