All Good Things Exposed(35)

Everything I did for him came back to this - this love for him. I longed to hear him admit his feelings for me in such a way. I longed to know he loved me…but I didn't think he did. Jace needed me. He needed something from me and when he finally got it - when he licked me dry - he would leave me. Because as much as he claimed he would stay, I couldn't allow myself to believe in his words. They were only words. I needed actions. I needed to see his actions of commitment before I allowed myself to believe the untamable Jace Rush would settle with a woman like me.

I shook the thoughts from my mind as I moved across the office to the door. I locked it and moved back to the fireplace. I felt chilled to the bone about what I was going to do. But, at the same time, there was excitement. It made me feel…ill.

I turned back to face Jace. I was careful not to make eye contact, but I could feel his cobalt eyes on me, warming my flesh. I started with the buttons of my blouse. Nimble fingers worked at my clothing slowly and when I finally pulled the last of the fabric from where it was tucked into my skirt, I shrugged and let it fall to the floor.

"What are you doing?" Jace asked hoarsely.

I didn't reply. Instead, I pulled the zipper on the skirt and slipped the material down my hips. Next, I removed my stockings, my bra and my panties. My hands were shaking and my heart was pounding. I didn't feel empowered. I wanted to look up at him and gauge his thoughts, but I couldn't bring myself to act. I kept my eyes trained on the floor as I knelt down on the rug before the fireplace. I was thankful for the flames that kissed my chilled skin as I locked my arms behind my back.

There was a part of me that longed for Jace to tell me to get back up on my feet like a woman equal to him. But I knew that wouldn't happen and the sooner I accepted this as who he was and what he needed then I would find more enjoyment in it. I knew this because I had enjoyed it the last time. I enjoyed giving him complete control because in giving him such control, I'd proven to him how I trusted him. I needed to show him this again. I needed him to know I trusted him entirely, but I couldn't count on him being everything for me. In the time we had together, I would give him my all. It was all I could do.

I heard Jace sigh as he paced in front of me. Then, suddenly, he stopped. Jace faced me. His feet were in my direct line of vision, his toes pointed to me. His hands went to work at the waist of his pants, and when I looked up at the movement, I saw his pants were tented. This pleased me. I had problems.

"This is for me, Olivia, not you." Jace said stiffly. He was aroused, but he was clearly angry. I was confused. "We were having a conversation you interrupted to please me. And, that's fine. But you will get no pleasure from this." Oh, he was most definitely angry. Oops. "Open your mouth." He commanded as he pulled his perfectly sculpted penis from his pants. The head was so close to my face. The tip was shiny with moisture and my stomach fluttered. This was how he responded to me. "Take my dick in your mouth and suck. Make me come for you, in your mouth and swallow."

I didn't hesitate. I took him in my mouth. I felt him deep in the back of my throat as I took him as far as I could. My tongue swirled around his tip when I pulled back, before I slowly took him in my mouth.

Jace sighed. "Ah shit, Angel." He groaned and I continued with the torturous movement. "I'm going to fuck your mouth."

Jace tangled his hands in my hair, grasping the back of my head tightly. With my head firmly in place, he thrust his hips forward, his cock grazing the back of my throat before pulling out to repeat. All the while, I sucked hard. I ignored the need to gag at his penetration and when his cock thickened and his thrusts quickened, I knew he was about to come. I prepared myself as best I could as he slid over my tongue. His cock twitched and salty sweet liquid poured into the back of my throat. I swallowed every drop, eager to please him.

The last drop fell from Jace and I swallowed. He pulled himself from my mouth, shoving his still erect penis back into his pants before stepping back. I looked up at him for the first time and my stomach pummeled at the cold look in his hypnotic eyes.

"Stand up." His voice was just as stern as his eyes and I was quick to oblige his command. "Open your legs." I cocked my head in question. I thought I was getting nothing from this? I wanted to ask, but I didn't dare. With the look he wore on his face, I wanted to crawl into a hole where I was safe. I spread my legs just the finest amount and Jace stepped toward me. His hand moved toward me and I tightened everywhere. Admittedly, I was nervous.

Jace frowned when I flinched, but he didn't stop his advance. His warm finger met with my sex and he sighed. "You're wet."
