Page 15 of Unforgettable Billionaire (The Hardcore Novels: Special Editions #3)

Then the thought of him walking through the door with his perfect posture and strong Godlike gait knocking me down, plowing over me pops into my brain and the vision of being sprawled out on the floor with him standing over me gives me the silent silly giggles, and I stand there vibrating with them.

I would be so busted!

I inhale deeply and gain control. Then I ease my face slowly past the edge of the door and spy on him with one eye. He sits staring out over the yard, lost in deep thought. I notice a meal set on a table and a bottle of champagne in a bucket of ice.

Ah! The source of the delicious smell and a bottle of liquid celebration.

Aurei starts to tap his foot slightly, and he looks down at his fingers as he picks the first chords to another song.

I love that he loves music too.

I smile as I watch him knowing his serenades are swoon-worthy no matter what song he sings.

When he starts to hum the first notes, I recognize "This I Promise You" by N'Sync.

When he sings, he sings loud enough I can hear his words, but not so loud he loses the sweetness of the song.

His beautiful tone soaks my senses from my head down through all ten toes, making them tingle and bump against the tile, syncing with his foot to the beat.

I listen to his riveting message. He sings about the visions that surround me, along with the secrets and lies that hurt me, making me cry.

I hold my hands over my heart and start to sway.

He sings of all the promises.

Strength.

Hope.

Faith.

His performance is so powerful I'm propelled from behind the door into his gorgeous green gaze.

As he turns it on me, I smile and float to him with the grace of a ballerina.

Standing in front of him, I fall to my knees as a petal falls from a flower floating down.

Then I kneel before him and sway like a groupie for her rockstar as his love song falls over me and through me.

He was waiting for me. I'm right where I belong.

He promises we have won.

He promises we are one.

He sets the guitar down and says, "Come here, Baby."

I stand then slowly straddle him, swinging my leg over, placing my hands on his shoulders, pushing my tits in to his face.

His mouth immediately opens and starts to suck.

As I lift my body and slide down his until I sit on his lap, his mouth sucks skin, nipples, breasts, neck, everything that it touches.

I ease down onto his cock and sit in his lap as his lips kiss my jugular, mauling, nipping, nibbling.

His fullness inside me fills my body like his words filled my heart, completing me.

His lips travel all over everywhere, eager to taste me.

I start to fuck nice and slow as I pull away from his mouth, not for a climax, but for the connection. The look on his face and in his eyes are so sincere. I see the truth in them. He truly does promise me. Tears tickle mine, and I touch my fingers lightly on his face, marveling at what we have.

When you finally find the one you've searched a lifetime for, you know it's for eternity no matter what will happen, and it makes you appreciate every moment you are together. Two tortured souls heal each other's hurts and become one.

Tracing the beautiful angles of his bone structure, I breathe. Spreading my fingers apart, I push them along his jaw and tip his face up to mine.

"Every word is true, Siri. I promise you.

" He slides his fingers behind my ears and sinks them into my hair.

He cups my head with his hands and pulls me down to him.

The simple sensual seduction he possesses over me amazes me.

My lips latch onto his, and he tastes me with his tongue, tentatively at first, then more passionately.

I melt into a puddle of pure love, but when I feel his fingers clasp my collar, I freeze.

I pull away from his kiss as my hands fly to my neck to protect its place.

"Stop." I panic. "Don't! Aurei, don't take it off!"

He laughs with an air of incredulity, "Why not?"

"I just don't want it undone. I like the way it makes me feel. Completely yours!" I put his hands on my tits and help him massage them.

"I want to read the inscription to you."

"You don't remember what it says?" I put my nose on his, and Eskimo kiss him. He chuckles at that ridiculous statement, and I giggle while I attempt to get up and therefore get away. "This is some sort of trickery! And I'm not falling for it!"

He laughs out loud and locks his hands behind me, putting me in a bear hug. Burying my nose in his neck, he squishes me against him. Then he slides his hands back up into my hair.

The thought of it being released overwhelms me, and my voice cracks. "Don't. Please don't. Just tell me."

He relaxes his arms and leans away. "Are you ok? You sound upset?"

"I mean it! I don't want it undone ... ever! Not even when I dance as Surreal. The collar on my Black and Blue Baby can be adjusted to hide it. I've already thought about it."

He smiles and shakes his head. "If it means that much to you, I will leave it."

"It does." I smile, relieved. "I don't want to be wild and free ever again. I like being collared and claimed by you. I want to be owned and controlled by you."

He kisses my nose. "How about bound to?"

I purse my lips and roll my eyes, looking away as I give this very serious consideration. "Yeah, I would enjoy some rope play. Bound to the bed and forced to endure all sorts of kinky fuckery? Yeah, sounds like heaven to me."

He chuckles. "That's not exactly what I meant. I meant bound to me ."

"Whatever you want to do, I'm game." I grin. "You can even gag me if you want."

He laughs, "I might take you up on that!"

He cups my ass, and holding me against him, stands up. "Let's take a quick dip in the pool before we eat. Then I have a surprise for you."

"Oh, boy! I'm learning to love your surprises." I kiss him where my lips land.

As he walks us down the steps into the water, I lay my face on his shoulder.

"I saw the picture of Heaven on the ceiling.

I know the first word is Heaven now." And I start trying to guess again what the inscription reads.

"Heaven equals ... bondage? Bound to you?

No. Those don't fit. Heaven equals... rope play? "

He shakes his head.

"Heaven equals ... I promise? Oh! I know!" I cup his face and turn it to mine. Staring into his eyes, I say, "Heaven equals promise me!"

He laughs and puckers for a kiss.

"Is that it?" I ask, excited I might have stumbled on it.

"Nope." He pops his lips on the 'p.'

I lay my head back and growl. "Grrr. Just tell me!"

Standing waist-deep in the water, he squats. "You really want to know?"

"Yes! For crying out loud! Just tell me!"

He laughs a real belly laugh then says, "Heaven equals...." And he submerges us under the water. I see him smiling, and little bubbles escape his mouth. I start pounding his chest, and he lets me go. I float up while he waves his arms, blows bubbles out, and lays on the bottom.

Staring down at him, I grin and shake my fist at him.

"That's mean trickery!" My hair floats out in all directions, and I see my crazy-looking shadow.

He grins a 'shit eating' grin up at me. I come up for air, take a deep breath then dive down to him.

He is still grinning when I get there. "You rascal!

" I mouth and point at him, grinning too.

He reaches out, grabs hold, pulls me down to him, hugs me tight, then draws his legs up and shoots us to the surface. As soon as we catch a breath, I start to talk, and he takes me under again. I play slap him.

He lets me go, and he sits on the bottom.

I get another breath of air and dive down again.

I put my face in front of his, and he grins, then makes a monkey face, pulling his ears forward, blowing his cheeks out, and pooching his lips.

I laugh and lose my breath. Giant bubbles escape, and I'm forced to go up again for air.

As soon as I quit laughing, I dive back down, but we pass each other as he pushes up to fill his lungs. I chase him back to the surface. He is laughing at me when I come up, take a breath, and start to talk. "Aurei ...."

He takes a deep breath and disappears under the water again. This time he swims to the other end.

I watch his perfect swim stroke. His muscular arms form an angle, and his hands form an arrow as they cut into the water.

He pulls his weight with ease, and his feet kick with the rotation of his body.

His grace and fluid movement flow effortlessly, gliding along creating a wake of water with his massive body.

He stops at the other end and grins at me, knowing I can't ask him any questions from here.

I start to giggle and let out an exasperated, "AH!"

He laughs out loud.

I roll onto my back, push off and backstroke to him, giggling the whole way.

He catches me in his arms and pulls me tight, then takes me under again.

He spins me around to face him, and my hair floats between us.

I wave it away, then he pulls me against his chest, and I wrap my legs and arms around him, hooking myself to him.

He grins, and I stick my tongue out at him, making him laugh out loud, causing him to lose his breath, and we surface.

As soon as I take a breath then start to say "Aur," he lifts us up, preparing to submerge again. I shut my mouth quickly, and it makes a muffled popping sound, then I pretend to lock it with a key which I mime throwing it over his shoulder. He throws his head back and lets out a belly laugh.

I draw my legs to me, put my feet squarely in the center of his diaphragm, and dive off his six-pack abs, surging off him swimming as fast as I can to the other end.
