"Melissa," Sedric booms. "Thank you for joining us."

Melissa had put her blonde hair up in a twisted bun with small tendrils framing her face. Her eyes are downcast, as she flashes her father an apologetic smile.

"Sorry, Papa." She kisses her father on the cheek, her eyes darting over to mine nervously before narrowing in on the seat between Gianna and me.

Mother is at the head of the table in Father's absence while Sedric has taken the opposite head. My brothers Alec and Declan are arguing over something I'm sure is of a lot less importance than the fact that Melissa looks delectable in her dress. Her tits bubble over the v-cut and I have to readjust myself as she whispers in her father's ear.

"Come on. Sit, Mel." Gianna teases and I raise an eyebrow at Melissa, and she turns aways from me. A rush of vanilla flows over me as she sits next to me, slightly moving away from me. A light chuckle erupts in my chest, but before I can respond, Mother clinks her glass.

"Thank you for inviting us to this dinner, Sedric."

"Call it a sign of good faith. I am disappointed Amory isn't here."

"He will be here soon, but see this as a sign of trust because he trusts me to be safe until he gets here." Sedric laughs humorlessly, raising a glass to the table, and we all raise a glass in a sign of respect.

Melissa is looking straight ahead, a tight smile on her lips. I drag my fingertips lightly up her thigh watching how her breath shallows.

Without looking directly at her I whisper, "You look beautiful, Sole."

Her smile tightens, and she crosses her legs away from me. A challenge.

Alec, my immediate younger brother, interjects. "So how are negotiations going? Must be a pain in the ass dealing with these two old men."

"Alec," Mother snaps, but Sedric laughs.

Declan, the middle brother, chimes in. "Mother, you know Alec, quick to put his foot in his mouth."

Knox, the youngest in the family, rolls his eyes and whispers into Gianna's ear, passing her his phone. She snorts and passes the phone to Melissa as I watch.

She giggles softly, looking over at Knox, taking the phone from Gianna, my eyes tracking the movement of her body. I want to swipe the phone from Knox and move her chair closer to mine.

I look away from them to find Alec smirking at me as though he can read my thoughts. He shakes his head. "How was it today?"

"No discussing business at the table when we have strangers. Enemies no less!" Father's voice breaks into the conversation like a whip and we all sit straight. Even Knox lifts his head.

Father walks over to Mother and presses a kiss to her cheeks and she moves to the chair beside him. His brow is already scrunched as he greets Sedric with a curt nod.

Sedric shrugs, a smug look on his face. "I am glad you still see me as an enemy."

I look at Melissa who is looking down at the table and whisper into her ear, "Are you ignoring me?"

Melissa shifts her attention to Gianna, and a flash of anger shoots through my body.

"Xander, tell me about Amory Corp.?" Sedric asks.

"Sedric, do you take me for a fool?" I laugh, and my hand grips Melissa's thigh underneath the table.

She hiccups, sitting straight up in her chair. I move my hand towards her inner thigh, and as if she can't control herself, she opens her legs slightly.

The aroma of garlic and tomatoes fills the air as an array of bruschetta is set in front of each of us. "Mel, your favorite." Sedric smiles, but I drag my fingers trailing up the softness of her to play with the soft lace of her panties, and she catches her breath smiling at her father.

"Mine, too," I purr.

My finger danced along the edge of her panties, pushing the fabric lightly between her lower lips. Mel is fucking soaked; she sucks on her bottom lip to keep from moaning in front of both of our families.

"Mel, how are your studies coming?" She coughs covering up the moan that almost escapes her lips. I push her thong to the side, lightly brushing her bead. Her hand lands on my thigh.

"Good. Fine." She nods, swallowing a huge gulp of water. I slip a finger instead and she grips my thigh, almost painfully. Knox and Gianna redirect the conversation into a titillating story about a night out they both misremember, but my attention is all on Melissa.

Her panicked eyes lock onto mine, and I chuckle softly. "Don't ignore me," I whisper.

A wave of desire courses through my veins as I slip another finger inside her. Her wetness engulfs me and a groan lodges itself in my throat.

"I mean ask Mel! She was there!" Gianna snaps looking over, but Mel shakes her head no.

"I-I don't remember that night." Her eyes close tightly. "L-leave me out of this." Knox laughs but I watch her breath hitch as the struggle to keep quiet erupts on her face. She looks around, but I pull her attention back to me.

I slide my fingers in and out as she pushes her chair forward, thrusting her pelvis forth, chasing my fingers. My cock strains against my zipper at the way she shifts against me. I place my palm against her clit and she looks down frustrated.

"Melissa, are you alright?" her father asks.

She nods. "Yes c-can you pass the wine?"

I push my palm in harder and she damn near grinds on my hand. Fucking hell. She will be the end of me. She's so fucking close, I can feel her impatience, and see it in her eyes.

I knock my napkin onto the floor, as a distraction to lean in, "Be a good girl and cum for me." She digs her nails into me and grabs her newly refreshed glass of wine. She nods her head in compliance, and I smile at how easily undone she comes on my fingers.

I increase the pressure, rubbing her clit in circles, feeling her wetness slide between my fingers. The argument around the table rises and she allows herself to moan softly, her hips bucking against my hand as if she's possessed. I watch Melissa's body tense as her breathing quickens.

Melisa's grip on my thigh tightens as she arches her back, and she cums beautifully over my fingers. A growl escapes my throat. Melissa looks at me with her eyebrows furrowed, and anger creeping up on her features.

I whisper, "Good girl, Sole."

I pull back with my eyes locked on hers, then slowly bring my hand back into view, placing a finger in my mouth. She tastes like a tangy honey, and I smile in her direction, triumphant that she is finally showing me attention.

Instead of the breathless, lusty look she gave me three weeks ago, she looks irritated and rolls her eyes at me. Naughty girl. She sucks her teeth and looks at her father with a fake sincere smile, placing a napkin over her uneaten bruschetta.

"Please excuse me." She doesn't wait for permission and storms out the room.

I look between her and my hand, but knowing I can't draw attention to me following her, I text one of my men to call me. My phone rings seconds later, and I look down before looking at both Sedric and my father.

"My apologies, I need to take this."

I rush out of the dining room and follow the smell of smoky vanilla to Melissa in a hallway with two palms placed against the wall and her hunched over breathing heavily. She immediately holds her breath in my presence.

"Go away, Xander," she heaves. "Haven't you done enough?"

"Me? You ignored me for the majority of dinner?"

"So you finger me in front of our fathers?!" She stands up straight glaring at me.

"You are not allowed to ignore me, Melissa." I step closer grilling her.

"Not allowed?" she snaps. I look around making sure the echo of her voice has not tipped anyone off and drag her into a nearby powder room.

"Melissa, you are mine. You do not ignore me. You do not disrespect me." I am a breath away from her now. She wavers, looking down.

"But you are allowed to ignore me?" She looks up at me, tears staining the edges of her eyes. "A-after you took my virginity you are allowed to disappear?"

Her words strike me like a punch to the gut. I didn't mean to ignore her, in fact I had become drowned in the work of the mole hunt. This is the first day I was able to breathe. I had been the one to organize this dinner just to see her. "Mel?—"

"No, you don't get to do this to me. You can't just show back up whenever you please, Xander."

"Melissa, I would never just ignore you, but I am to be head of the Amory family. I have responsibilities I must attend to." I look into her green eyes, watching the light fade from them, so I pull her into me and whispering into her ear. "But trust me, the minute I could get away I came running to you. All I want is you. I would never abandon you, Sole."

I pinch her chin, pulling lips closer to mine. A weak smile spreads across her face, "Never?"

"Never, but if you ever ignore me like that again, I will put you over my knee," I grab her plump ass, and a yelp of laughter escapes her lips. "And I will spank you until both cheeks look like a tomato, understand?"

"Yes, sir," she whispers against my lips before brushing against them lightly. I growl against her soft lips.

"Now how do I punish you for ignoring me?"

"Was I not already punished at the dinner table?" She whispers, and I peck her lips again.

"Not even close."

I spin her around to press her ass back into my cock, spreading her hands flat against the wall. I lift her dress over her waist, careful this time not to rip it because we have to go sit back in front of our families.

Shit. She's wearing a lacy white thong, looking back at me with big green doe eyes. She looks so innocently sexy.

"Who did you wear these for?" I groan, blowing air on the wet seat of her panties. She moans, arching her back towards me. I kiss her lower lips, another moan rolling over her lips.

"You didn't wear them for me, did you?" I tease, my breath hot against her ear as I nip the lobe. Melissa shivers in my arms, her body responding to my touch. I pull her thong to the side, exposing her wet, swollen pussy. I slap her pussy lightly, causing her to buck forward, whispering, "Don't you dare move your palms off the wall."

I unbuckle my pants, pulling my cock out and stroking myself to the magnificent sight of Melissa's legs spread, back arched for me. I could see her like this a million times and never get tired of how delicious she looks.

I reach around to cup her ass, pulling her closer to me. The wet heat of her thong and the scent of her arousal intoxicate me. I can't resist any longer. I lean against her, rubbing my erections between her cheeks. My fingers graze her slick, wet folds, and she lets out a soft gasp. I push a finger inside her, and she lets out a whimper, her body arching even more towards me.

I thrust my hips forward, sliding my erection between her legs, her slick folds providing just enough friction to send shivers down my spine. She whimpers, a sound that sends a jolt of lust straight to my core.

"You're so wet," I groan, snaking my hand around to rub my thumb against her clit. "Do you want this? Do you want me to fuck you against the wall right now?"

Her eyes flutter shut, her breaths coming in short. "Fuck, Xander," she whimpers.

I don't waste a second, positioning myself at her entrance. I tug her hips back, impaling her on my cock in one swift motion. She lets out a scream, her body trembling from the force of my thrust.

I can feel her slick folds hugging my every thrust, and I growl into her ear. "You are mine. You do not ignore me, Sole." I slap her ass as I fuck her hungrily.

I hold her hips firmly, guiding my hips into a relentless rhythm. Her sweet moans fill the hallway, driving me on. Her hands grip the wall, nails digging in for support as I thrust into her with unyielding force. Her wet, slick walls cling to my cock, sending waves of pleasure through me.

"Fuck, Xander," Melissa moans, her body undulating against me. "I need it. Fuck me harder." I can feel my cock squeeze, my release coming fast. My free hand comes around to cup her breast, tweaking her nipple until she gasps, her body trembling even more.

"You're going to cum right on my cock. You understand, Sole?" I grunt and she is mewling, nodding her hand feverishly.

"Xander, please!"

My hand holds her waist, fingertips digging into her skin forcing her to take every inch of me. Her breaths come out in short, gasping cries, her pussy clenching around my cock, milking me with each thrust.

Her legs tremble, and I know she's close. I can feel her need, her desire for release pulsing through her, matching my own. Melissa's moans escalate, the sweet, filthy sounds driving me wild. I feel myself nearing the edge, my balls tightening.

"You're mine. This ass is mine" I slam into her. "This pussy is mine. Who do you belong to, Sole?"

"You, Xander! I belong to you," she moans, her release crashing over me, as I chase mine down.

I lean my head against her shoulder, kissing along her shoulder before pulling out slowly. I watch cum slide down her thick thighs, and I scoop it, pushing it back into her. She whimpers.

"You're going to sit at dinner full of me, understand?" She nods as I fix her dress back and put her thong in my pocket.

"Yes, I understand, but where is my underwear?"

"This is your punishment. I keep them." She turns around giving me that loose, sultry grin.

Melissa's lips brush against mine, and I pull her into me deepening the kiss. Our tongues tease each other and her moans send a shiver down my spine.

I pull back a lazy grin on my face before turning around and smacking her ass. "Go back in first." She giggles, running ahead. "I heard they had chocolate cake for dessert. Your favorite."
