Page 96 of Discretion

She moaned around me, and I felt it to the center of my very being. She squirmed a little, and I could tell she was seeking friction.

“You like that, don’t you?” I gave the back of her neck a quick squeeze, and she leaned forward, letting me guide her. “My praise.”

She nodded, head bobbing around me. Her mouth felt fucking amazing. So warm and wet and hot. I continued using my hand to guide her as she cupped my balls, sending a shiver down my spine.

I was… My muscles tightened. Fuck, that felt good. Too good. If she didn’t stop, I was going to come.

I signaled to Halle that I wanted her to stop. Well, I didn’twanther to stop, but I also didn’t want to come in her mouth. Not this time anyway.

She released me with a pop, sinking back on her knees. She held her chin high, letting me—inviting me—to look my fill. “You make me feel…powerful.”

“Youarepowerful,” I said, wanting her to see herself like I did. As a fucking goddess—eyes bright, cheeks pink.

But it wasn’t just about her looks or the effect she had on me. Halle was a force to be reckoned with at the office—confident, intelligent, and passionate. She was an amazing mom to Kai. But even if she weren’t any of that, if she were justHalle, she was incredible.

She gave my cock a few lazy pumps. “As much as I love your praise, that’s not exactly the type of talking I had in mind. If you don’t want to tell me about the report, then at least tell me what’s bothering you.”

Bothering me?

At the moment, absolutely nothing was bothering me except for the fact that I wasn’t inside her.

I rubbed my thumb across her bottom lip before pressing it inside. She sucked it briefly before giving it a playful bite, and my cock twitched in delight.

“Halle,” I commanded, low and deep.Enough teasing.

She sucked the tip of my cock into her mouth, and I let out a sound that was unintelligible. She smirked. “My mouth may be occupied, but yours is not.”

She swirled her tongue around me, lapping up precome. I cupped the back of her neck again, gentle but commanding. Her eyes met mine, encouraging me. I used my hands to guide her.

Yes. There.

My eyes rolled into the back of my head at what she was doing. I let my head fall against the chair, reveling in thisstolen moment alone with her.

“Is this about Craig moving here?” she asked.

I practically growled at the mention of her ex. “I don’t ever want to hear another man’s name when you’re touching me.”Me. No one else.

And I sure as shit didn’t want to think about him moving here. Or the fact that Kai—not Halle—had been the one to tell me. And judging from Halle’s guilty expression at the time, it seemed like she’d known for a while.

I growled.Enough about Craig.

There would be time for questions later. Right now, my focus was on Halle.

I grabbed her beneath her arms and hauled her to her feet. She let out a little squeak as I turned her to face the desk. My movements were rough—angry, even—as I pulled up her skirt so it bunched around her waist.

Halle glanced back at me over her shoulder, her eyes wild with excitement and desire. “Wh-what are you doing?”

I didn’t answer. Instead, I yanked down her underwear, keeping it around her knees, holding her in place. She let out a shaky exhale, and I grinned. I finally had her right where I wanted her.

I pried her ass cheeks apart, her body slick with desire. “Who does this pussy belong to?” I asked, blowing cool air.

She shivered. “You.”

“Damn right, it does.” Hearing her say those words unleashed something inside me. Something raw and animalistic. This urge to claim her as mine. Because that’s what she was.Mine.

Halle belonged with me. Just as I belonged with her. And I hated the fact that we were keeping this a secret. I understood it, of course. But I still didn’t like it.

So instead of focusing on the things I couldn’t control, Idecided to ground myself in the present. In this gorgeous woman who had offered herself to me. Who trusted me.
