The breath catches in my throat.
“Get on the desk,” Renata says.
For a moment, I’m sure I misheard her. Then a wave of hopeful anticipation swells inside me as I realize what she’s asking. “R-Really…?”
She raises a perfect eyebrow.
I’ve never moved so quickly in my life. I hop up on the desk so I’m sitting on it, my legs hanging off. A cup full of hotel-branded pens tumbles to the floor.
With vampiric speed, Renata is before me, standing so my legs are straddling her. Her face is inches from mine. I can see every strand of sleek, black hair, and the crimson that’s peeking out from behind the irises of her deep brown eyes. I feel like I’m going to explode with lust.
“Lily, before we go any further,” she whispers, her voice more tender than I’ve ever heard it. My heart bursts. “I need you to know that this doesn’t impact our work in any way. If you want me to stop at any time, you must tell me immediately, and nothing will change. There will be no questions asked…”
“I won’t want you to stop,” I tell her, desperately. “Renata, I want you so badly…”
“But I need you to tell me that you understand,” she says. I don’t know if it’s just my own overwhelming desire, but I almost think Ihear an edge of longing in her voice, too. “That you know this won’t jeopardize your position here, or change our professional relationship.”
“I know, I understand…”
It’s as though my words have knocked down a wall between us. She takes my face in her hands. Her mouth finds mine, our lips meeting in a passionate kiss. It’s as though I’ve been stranded on a desert island for days and I’ve just found water. She’s assertive, but gentle. Her kiss satisfies a deep need inside my core, but at the same time, it makes me desperately hungry for more.
As though she can read my thoughts, she pulls her lips away to ask, “How far?”
“Everything,” I tell her, without hesitation. “Anything you say, I’ll do.”
She raises an eyebrow. “Would you like that? If I told you what to do?”
I feel like I might faint. “Oh, yes. Yes, I would.”
Her expression shifts, and I catch a glimpse of the powerful vampire that rescued me from the elevator. My own desire is reflected in her eyes. It’s my wildest dream. I can’t believe this is happening.
But then she takes a step back. There’s a mischievous twinkle in her eyes. “Turn around, and bend down over the desk.”
The anticipation is almost more than I can bear. Inhaling deeply, I hop off the desk again and bend down across it, sticking my ass out temptingly. She surveys me carefully, drawing out the moment. Her eyes traveling over my body makes me tremble all over.
“Pull your dress up,” she instructs. I obey immediately, feeling the cool air of the office across my now-exposed thighs. I’msoglad I wore my good panties! They’re the dark blue ones, with lace. I hope she likes them.
But true to form, she doesn’t give anything away just yet. Then she puts a hand to my lower thighs and pushes them apart slightly.
I realize that she’s checking for her own bite marks, and I swoon so much I almost fall off the desk.
“They’re healing nicely,” she comments.
“You…you could bite me again, if you want,” I tell her, breathlessly.
“In time,” she says, a little teasing note in her voice. “Patience, Lily.”
I’m glad I’m bent over the desk, otherwise I would have surely lost my balance, I’m shaking so much.
She runs her hands along my thighs and up, over my backside. Her touch is pleasantly cool, and sends shivers up and down my spine. She moves with agonizing slowness, building up the tension until I feel like I’m about to burst.
Then, in a sudden motion, she bends down and slices through the crotch of my panties with her sharpened canines.
I gasp as I’m exposed to her. Then she takes a hand and touches me.
It’s electrifying. Her fingers move with careful precision. I push my hips against them, moaning with pleasure. I’ve never been touched like this. I didn’t even know it was possible to feel this way. She explores me confidently, taking her time.
“You’resowet,” she purrs. “Do you like my touch, Lily?”
