Chapter 16

ALEX

A s soon as we got in the penthouse, I hurried into the bedroom to get these clothes off. I felt so constricted in these pants. Roman snuck up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist. I jerked at the surprise embrace which got me stuck in the pants more.

“Help me get these off please, they’re so tight.” I groaned as he flipped me onto my back aggressively on the bed as he tried to pull the leather pants off.

“How the hell did you get these on?” He strained as he yanked hard on the pants and finally, they came off. He almost hit the floor with them.

I let out the breath I was holding and said, “Crisco.” We were both laughing, thank God, as the pants lay nicely on the floor– off my body.

“Would you like to take a shower?”

I nodded my head and reached my hands out to him to help me up and he led me to the ensuite to join him in the shower.

While holding my body so close to his under the warm stream of water he said, “How are you after what happened this evening?” I stared up at him running my hands up and down his back with the sponge wondering how I should really answer this question.

“Fine.” There was no confidence behind that response. “I got to spend good quality time with my friends. It was fun until we got kicked out.” I took a quick glance at him to test his mood. He was massaging shampoo into my hair without paying any attention to my words. My head fell back, and I felt his lips on my neck, and I moaned.

“Yeah, all in all it was a really good time.” he said as he kissed up and down my neck on both sides. He was trying to distract me, and it was almost working.

He leaned down and took my breast in his mouth, paying special attention to my nipple, sucking and biting as my knees began to give way. Ohh. He started to kiss his way down my body as he reached between my legs. “Except you seemed like an attack dog or something that was let off the leash.” I said breathlessly. He immediately stopped and stood up abruptly. Shit, Maybe I should’ve waited for him to finish what he was doing.

“Do you know anything that can really hurt someone?” He seemed skeptical or maybe hopeful that I didn’t but why was he turning this around on me ?

“Yes, a lot of things.” He had a truly worried look on his face now.

“I thought you might and that’s the reason I stepped in. You don’t need to fuck up your chances with this court hearing coming up.” He groaned as he pulled me tightly to his body, smothering my face to his chest. Is that really the reason, though?

“Ok, fine, but I need you to know something.” I pushed away, taking his face in my palms and directed him to look at me but his arms were still wrapped around me not letting me move, so we barely had any space to look at each other. “I think the training Bruce is giving me really is working.” I pulled away a little more so he could see I truly meant what I was saying. “I feel like I have control. I mean Luke was definitely getting under my skin but not enough for me to lose control.” Now Tanner might be another story. I thought as my mind took a stroll through the Tanner Ellington park I created in there.

He smirked, probably wondering about the control he lost tonight too. “That’s all good to know. Hopefully we won’t be hearing from him again.”

“I guess he won’t be mad that I blocked him anymore.” I shrugged one shoulder as I turned to get out of the shower. I was still a little worried about Roman’s state of mind and figured we should end this conversation before I bring up how I really felt about what he did.

Suddenly I was being pulled back into the shower and pinned to the wall. The look in his eyes was one of pure lust and I felt it in my soul. Guess he was done with conversation, too. His mouth crashed on to mine as his hard body pressed me to the wall. Heat radiated between my thighs and his arousal was more than evident against my stomach. This was savage and feral. It was unlike anything we’ve ever expressed before, including early this evening when I asked him for hard and fast. I didn’t know if I should be worried or turned on–except I was definitely both. I lifted my leg to anchor it around his hip and he lifted me up, wrapping both legs around his waist as he moved us to sit on the bench, and planted me powerfully on top of his dick sliding all the way to the hilt. I threw my head back as a loud scream of pleasure rose from my throat taking all the air from my lungs. He pulled both of my feet up on the seat on either side of him and circled my hips with his hands, gripping me so tightly it was almost painful. He stayed in control of us both leaning back against the wall as he used my body to work out his tension. Back and forth, up and down, almost without rhythm and only for his pleasure. He released one hand from my hips and pressed his thumb into my clit in a soft circular motion increasing his speed as his release became imminent. I held on to his shoulders working myself into his rhythm trying as hard as I could to get us finished together grinding on his thumb. My head fell back as my orgasm teetered on the edge and the moment he released into me, I let go collapsing onto his shoulder.

After drying off and throwing on a long tee shirt, I climbed into bed. Roman slid between the sheets, engulfing me snuggly in his arms, laying his head in my lap. I couldn’t help but run my fingers through his hair knowing he went through a lot of mental gymnastics tonight and I know how much that can take out of you. I felt his body more relaxed now–the tension seemed to have left him.

“Can I drop you off at brunch tomorrow?” he asked without picking his head up to look at me. I wonder how long he’s going to be in overprotective mode.

“Sure. I can have the girls bring me back, would that be okay?” He nodded into my lap. I felt a sense of foreboding about asking permission. I didn’t want to fall back into old habits. I felt trapped in this predicament as it was.

“Oh, I almost forgot.” He peered up at me through sleepy eyes. “I scheduled the sleepover with the kids. ”

When?

“What? Is that what you guys were doing tonight?” I couldn’t help but swoon thinking how sweet it was of him to put together a playdate with the kids for me, knowing how much I loved them.

He looked rather proud of himself, and I stared in awe, forgetting almost entirely of what happened tonight.

“I figured I might as well since I’ve been getting to know the guys and they will be coming to our…I mean, my house.” Our, huh? Was that really a slip of the tongue?

“I’m learning things about you. I like it. I like that you and the guys get along and that they’re as comfortable with you around their kids as they are with me."
