Chapter Nineteen
Zach couldn’t say why, but the moment he walked into his bedroom, he could feel Toni’s gaze on him as though it was a physical thing.
A light was on in her kitchen, making her outline faintly visible through the shadows where she hovered at the edge of her living room window. She probably thought she was all but invisible since the living room was dark, but that kitchen light provided just enough illumination to make out her basic shape.
He’d missed her like hell over the past few days, but they’d been so busy and full of shit he hadn’t even had a moment to swing by the diner. Plus, he’d offered her casual. A few weeks of fun until she left. That meant he didn’t need and shouldn’t want to check in with her every five seconds. Especially when it was pulling him from his responsibilities.
But staring at him through his window while he worked out then jerked off? Yeah that would break the strongest guy's resolve.
Man, how he wished he could see her shocked and aroused expression when he turned his gaze on her.
The silky feel of her panties wrapped around his dick was a distant second to the sensation of her pussy squeezing the life out of him, but it was all he’d had for the past few nights. That was about to be over. Toni didn’t know it, but he was done with her flimsy attempts at distance.
They’d wasted enough time already. She was his for the duration of her time in Tennessee.
His cock was so hard, it felt like it could snap right off. Time to move the show along.
He reached for his phone on top of the nightstand and called Toni.
“Hello?” Her breathless voice picked up on the third ring.
“If I’d have known you were a peeping Tom, I’d have done this weeks ago.”
“I, uh, I was just, um…”
Even though it was too dark on her side, he could imagine her face turning an adorable shade of pink.
“Nothing to be embarrassed about, sweetheart. I understand it’s hard to resist a peek at all this.” He ran a hand down his naked torso and over the ridges of his six-pack.
Zach wasn’t stupid, nor was he falsely modest. He knew his body attracted women. Hell, it was one of the reasons he worked so damn hard in the gym and didn’t buy ice cream. But he’d never wanted one woman to enjoy the view as much as he did with Toni.
“How long have you known I was watching?”
“Since I took off my shirt.”
She squeaked. “God, that’s embarrassing.”
Zach chuckled. “Turn your light on, baby. I want to see more than the outline of you.”
After an audible swallow, the light in Toni’s living room flashed on. She stood, wide-eyed in the window, phone at her ear and shorts open.
Fuck. Knowing she’d gotten so turned on watching him stroke his cock that she had to touch herself made him almost insane.
Zach squeezed the base of his cock with the silken panties. He wanted to play a little and draw this out, but he was on the verge of coming. “Does watching me fuck my hand make your pussy all needy, baby?”
“Yes,” she whispered.
“Let me watch you.” She switched the phone to her other hand and slowly slid her dominant hand inside her shorts. Suddenly, Zach had the violent need to see more. To watch her fingers playing with her clit and disappearing into her pussy.
“Drop your shorts and take off your top. I want to see your tits while I stroke myself.”
The line fell silent and seconds ticked by. Zach was just about to speak again when Toni set her phone down on the windowsill. She crossed her arms at her waist, gripped her T-shirt, then drew it over her head.
Zach groaned. No bra. Her gorgeous tits were on full display. He hadn’t thought it possible, but his dick swelled even more.
After shimmying out of her shorts, she picked the phone up and returned it to her ear. “What now?” Her voice had lost that shocked, breathy quality and taken on a sultry seductress tone.
This wasn’t gonna take long.
“Put down the phone and put me on speaker. Then, one hand on your tit, one back on your pussy. Finger yourself.”
A sly smile tipped her lips and she nodded. A second later she placed the phone on the window sill. Her right hand cupped her tit, lifting it before she pinched the nipple between her thumb and forefinger.
At the same time, she coasted her left hand over the slight swell of her belly and straight into her sex. A low moan filtered through the phone when she entered herself.
Shit, she was putting on her own show for him. He’d started out fully in control of the encounter, but felt it slipping away with each thrust of her finger in her pussy. Fuck, he wanted to feel that wetness for himself. To taste the proof of her arousal and hear her noises in person.
But he was going to see this through, because he absolutely loved drawing out the naughty, uninhibited side of Toni.
~ ~ ~ ~
Toni’s legs trembled and her breath came in choppy hitches. She loved to masturbate as much as the next person, but often needed a vibrator to get the job done.
Not tonight.
Zach had her so worked up just from his voice and the sight of him jerking off that a stiff breeze would have sent her careening off the cliff.
“Fuck, that’s hot, baby,” Zach said, his attention glued to the hand between her legs. He increased the speed of his strokes. “Feel good?” He sounded almost in pain.
“Y-yes,” she managed.
“Feel as good as my cock? As my tongue?”
“God, no. Nothing feels that good.”
Zach grunted. “More, baby. Play with your clit. I’ve got about sixty seconds left in me and I need you there too. Think about what it’s going to be like next time. Think of how much bigger my fingers are than yours and how good it will feel when I get them inside you.”
Toni released her breast and dropped her hand down, rubbing quick, firm circles over her clit. Her body flared in response to Zach’s dirty talk. His mouth did it for her whether it was on her skin or just talking.
“When I’m done finger fucking that pretty pussy, I’ll fuck you with my cock again. You want that, sweetheart? You want my cock back inside you? It hasn’t spent nearly enough time in there yet. But we’re gonna change that, aren’t we? Tell me you want my cock, Toni.” There was no playfulness to him. This was a command. This was Zach exerting dominance over their sex life.
And she fucking loved it.
“I want that.” She plunged her fingers in and out at a furious clip until she couldn’t stand it any longer. Pressing her thumb over her clit, the orgasm hit and nearly took her to her knees. “Oh my God, Zach,” she cried as she came.
“That’s my girl.”
His girl.
She ignored the possessive statement in favor of watching him reach his own climax. His body jerked and twitched as he rubbed the panties over his dick like he was trying to make them one. It was only another ten seconds or so before he let out a violent curse and covered the tip of his dick with her panties as the orgasm ripped through him.
His shoulders hunched forward and his head dropped down. The muscles she loved flexed and relaxed over and over until finally quieting. When he reached for his phone, she did the same, turning off the speaker.
“I’m coming over,” he said in a much more relaxed voice.
“Okay.” She hadn’t even pretended to put up an argument. Geez, she was so easy for him. It was pointless to deny him when she wanted him as much as he claimed to want her.
“And I’m staying until the morning.”
“Okay.”
“And you’re going to come a few more times before the night is over.”
She smiled. “What about you?”
“I’m hoping you’ll let me come too.”
Toni laughed at that. It was rare to spend time with a man who both blew her mind and made her laugh. “I’ll think about it.”
He stepped into his shorts. “Go get into bed, baby. Leave the door unlocked for me. I’ll be there in ten minutes. I just want to chat with the prospect outside your house and send him home for the night since I’ll be there.”
It was even rarer to find a man who blew her mind, made her laugh, and cared about her safety. His concern made her a little warm and gooey inside.
“I’ll be waiting.”
He disconnected the call and Toni blew out a breath.
Did that really just happen? Did she really just stand butt naked in her window and finger herself to completion?
She shivered as a blast of air-conditioned air blew on her from the overhead vent. Yep, she had stood naked in the window. And she had climaxed. And she’d watched Zach do the same.
A huge smile hit her face. It had been the most fun she’d had in a while.
Her phone rang and butterflies flitted through her stomach. What other instructions did Zach have for her? “Yeeess?” she answered while still peeking through the window. “You better not be calling for a naked pic to get you through the next ten minutes.” Toni laughed as she tried to make him out in his now darkened room.
She expected to see Zach, but he wasn’t anywhere in sight. With a shrug, she started down the hallway toward the master bedroom.
“Zach?” she asked when silence greeted her.
“That didn’t take long, did it?”
Toni’s steps faltered and she bobbled the phone. “Chris? Why the hell are you calling me?”
Where seconds ago, strolling through her home naked felt sexy and freeing, she now felt the fierce need to be covered. Toni darted into her room and stuffed her arms into her robe. “I asked you a question,” she said as she belted the robe.
Chris’s huff of laughter infuriated her. “I was calling to see if you’d come to your senses and decided to return to me.”
Seriously? Why couldn’t he take the hint and leave her alone? Actually, there wasn’t even a hint for him to grasp. She’d flat out told him to leave her alone the last time they spoke. When he issued that vague threat she’d all but forgotten about. Something with regards to doing things the easy or hard way.
What a drama queen.
“Chris, I’m going to say this one last time, then I’m hanging up, okay? We are over. And if there was any question about that, I think calling me a slut and telling me you only want me so you can advance your career sealed that coffin shut tight.”
She was about to hit end when he spoke. “So you’re fucking him, then? The biker?” Disgust dripped from every word.
“Don’t see how my personal life is any of your business anymore, Chris. Are we done here?”
He snickered and she wanted to reach through the phone and strangle him. Normally, she wasn’t prone to violent fantasies, but his laughter grated across her nerves like coarse sandpaper. He thought he was so superior. What a self-important jerk. How had she not seen that while they were dating?
“I wouldn’t be so quick to dismiss me, Toni. I plan to make partner in your uncle’s firm no matter what I have to do. I emailed you something I’d like you to take a look at. I’ll call you again in a few days and we can discuss when you’ll arrive back in Chicago.”
“Of all the misguided, egotistical, arrogant shit I’ve ever heard—”
Her phone beeped three times.
“Chris?” She held it out and stared at the screen. He’d hung up. “Asshole,” she muttered.
Her front door slammed.
“I’m here, beautiful. You better be naked with those sexy legs spread by the time I get to your room or your punishment will be severe.”
Zach’s voice made her smile. She placed the phone on her dresser. No way in hell would she let Chris ruin this night for her. Whatever garbage he’d sent her could wait. Forever, if she had her way.
As fast as possible, she slipped out of her robe and dashed to the bed. Flopping back on a pile of pillows, she managed to draw up her knees and widen her legs seconds before Zach appeared in the door.
Part of her had wanted to disobey his orders and find out exactly what he viewed as punishment. But that could wait for another time.
Another time. Toni stared at him as he walked into her room. It was time to give into the fact that this would be occurring again. No matter that she knew it shouldn’t.
“Fuck me,” he said, and her core clenched at the raw appreciation in his eyes. He stalked toward the bed like a predator ready to pounce. Tossing a strip of condoms on the foot of the bed he groaned. “You ready for this, baby?”
Toni winked. “Bring it on.”
