After Blake showed up at my house, William hardly let me out of his sight. A few days later, when I saw Blake drive past campus, I stopped telling him he was being overprotective.

So I got used to William being my shadow. He didn’t go to work with me all day, but he did pop in to check up on me. And he charmed everyone I worked with. Lisa couldn’t stop talking about how dreamy he was. My boss met him and later went on and on about him being so likable and engaging.

Even Jessica, who’d held onto her skepticism because of the whole stalking thing, had come around. Although she did complain that we hadn’t spent any time together recently. She was right. I made it up to her by taking her out for a girl’s night that weekend. Peter happily stayed home, and I pretended I didn’t notice William following us the whole time.

The following Friday, William came to my office in the afternoon. I was just finishing up with a student who was attempting to persuade me to raise his grade. His name was Danny, and he wasn’t nearly as cute as he seemed to think he was. I wasn’t impressed with his cocky grin and thinly veiled hints that he’d make it worth my while.

William appeared in the doorway and waited.

“Look, I’m sure we can figure this out,” Danny said. “I need a better GPA or my parents are going to give me all kinds of crap. And maybe you could use… you know… a little relaxation. You work hard. You deserve it.”

William crossed his arms and leaned against the door frame, looking amused. “She does deserve it. But I don’t think she needs your help.”

Danny whipped around and muttered, “Oh, shit,” under his breath.

“Hi, baby,” William said, his eyes on me. He was so good at subtlety. There was no bravado. The look in his eyes and the tenor of his voice made one thing perfectly clear—I was his.

“Danny, if you want to raise your grade, ace the final,” I said. “And I’d suggest actually reading the books, rather than relying on chapter summaries you find on the internet.”

He frowned, looking defeated. “Yeah. Thanks, Dr. Nichols.” Shouldering his backpack, he cast a quick glance at William, then ducked out of my office. It was like watching the alpha wolf in the pack chase off an upstart young male. Only William didn’t even need to bare his teeth, let alone growl.

“Hi.” I leaned back in my chair and sighed out a long breath.

William came in and shut the door behind him. “That sounded like a fun conversation.”

I shook my head. “I have one in every class. They don’t do the reading, can’t write a proper essay to save their life, but they think they can come in here and sweettalk their way to a better grade.”

“They underestimate you,” he said.

I smiled. “And they underestimate you, if they think I have any… unmet needs.”

“Indeed,” he said. “Do you have time to get away? I think you could use a break.”

“I have a little time.” I pushed my chair back and stood. “But I still have a lot to do before I can go home.”

He came around to the other side of my desk and slid his hands around my waist. Leaned in and pressed his lips to mine. His mouth moved, soft at first. Then his tongue teased my lips and his hands moved lower, his fingers inching my skirt up.

I lost myself in the feel of kissing him, sparks of electricity racing through my veins. He pulled my skirt higher and slid one hand into my panties, grabbing my ass, pressing me against him.

“You feel so good, I want to kiss you all the time.” He squeezed my ass, kissing me again.

“We’re in my office,” I said between kisses, but the more he touched me, the less I cared.

He kissed down my neck. “Do you want me to stop?”

“No.”

Growling deep in his throat, he pushed my laptop aside, and set me on top of my desk. He moved his hand up my inner thigh and brushed his fingers along the outside of my panties. “Do you feel how wet you are?”

I shuddered at his touch. With my arms around his strong shoulders, I nodded.

“I want to taste you,” he whispered in my ear, still rubbing me through my panties. “I want to lay you down on your desk and lick your pussy, baby. I don’t want to wait. I want you right now.”

“This is crazy,” I breathed, but it wasn’t much of a protest. I glanced at the window. The blinds were down and only partially open. Someone would have to be standing right outside to see in.

He kissed my neck and slid his tongue across my skin.

“Okay, now,” I said. “Lock the door.”

He left me sitting on the edge of my desk, breathing hard, while he locked the door. His eyes held me, a predator circling his prey. I didn’t keep much on my desk, and he moved it all aside so I could lie down. My pussy throbbed with anticipation. He nudged my legs open and kissed up the inside of my thighs, his stubble pleasantly scratchy. When he reached my center, he took my panties off and dropped them to the floor.

The first few exploratory strokes of his tongue had me trembling. It felt like warm velvet against my desperately sensitive skin. He licked up my center and I gasped when the tip of his tongue swirled around my clit.

“Oh, god,” I whispered, trying to stay quiet.

“Mm.” He hummed, the vibration sending shock waves through me. “You taste so good.”

He licked and kissed, little teases of his lips and tongue. Then he clamped down harder and sucked. His tongue slid in and out of my wet pussy while he gently sucked my clit.

I bit my bottom lip to keep from crying out and ran my fingers through his hair. I couldn’t believe I was doing this. We were in my office, on my desk. It was insane.

But I’d never been more powerfully aroused. I moved my hips and pressed my fingers into his scalp. Pressure built deep inside, hot and tantalizing.

Looking down, I watched. Seeing my skirt hiked up around my waist and his mouth between my legs made me feel wild and free. Like I could do anything with him. I gasped as he sucked harder, then flicked my clit with his tongue.

“William, I’m going to come,” I said. “Oh god, William.”

Just when I thought I couldn’t take anymore, he slid two fingers inside me. The added pressure and the soft strokes of his fingertips in just the right place sent me careening over the edge. My back arched, and I covered my mouth as the intensity of the orgasm overtook me.

He didn’t stop, and my climax stretched out, waves upon waves of intense pleasure surging through me. I panted and writhed while he licked and sucked.

“Oh my god, stop,” I said, almost breathless. “I can’t… William… oh god.”

Slowly, like he was enjoying the delicious torture, he stopped. I lay on my desk, trying to catch my breath after one of the most insane orgasms I’d ever had.

“I have no idea how you just did that,” I said.

“I could taste you all the time,” he said, his voice rough and low. Closing his eyes, he licked his lips and groaned.

I sat up, leaning back on my arms. “What are you going to do now?”

“I’m going to fuck you until you come again.” He unfastened his pants and lowered the zipper.

My eyes locked on his erection, bulging through his underwear. I was so glad I’d gone back on the pill. He pulled the waistband down, releasing his cock. It sprang up, long and thick. I bit my lip and scooted my ass forward, so I was right on the edge of the desk.

I tipped my knees open and he stepped in close. Holding the shaft of his cock, he rubbed the tip along my slit. Up and down, dragging it through my wetness, teasing. His other hand went to the back of my neck, his fingers through my hair. Closing his fist, he held tight, keeping me in his control.

“I love you,” he said, our lips brushing together. He kept rubbing his cock against me, the tip sliding against my clit. “And I love that you’re mine. Every bit of you. I love that I get to be the man to do this to you. To taste you and touch you.”

“I love you too.” My tongue darted out and he groaned as I licked my taste off his lips. “I love that I’m yours. I don’t want anyone else.”

Voices sounded from outside the door and we paused, our eyes locked. I sat on the edge of my desk, my legs spread wide open. He stood in front of me, his pants undone, his cock in his hand. The door was locked, but I willed them to walk by.

“Shh,” I whispered. And oh my god, please don’t knock.

William’s tongue flicked against my lips and I sucked in a quick breath. Slipped my tongue out to meet his, the sensitive tips caressing. He moved his cock again, rubbing it against my clit. My eyes rolled back, and I suppressed a moan.

The voices continued, just outside the door. Whoever it was, they’d stopped in the hallway right in front of my office.

With his cock settled at my entrance, he reached around and held my ass. Then he pushed in, slowly, inch by agonizing inch. I clung to him, my arms around his neck, trying not to make a sound.

“Shh,” he said against my mouth. Pushed in deeper until he was buried inside me.

I wrapped my legs around his waist and he let go of my hair to grab my ass with both hands. The tension was making me crazy and I had no idea how he was controlling himself. His cock throbbed but he held still. I wanted movement, rhythm, pressure. I wanted him to fuck me—so much that I almost whispered for him to do it, and be damned who could hear us.

A muffled see you later came through the door. He bit my lower lip, pinching it between his teeth. I whimpered softly. Then footsteps, and a moment later, silence.

William released my lip, tightened his grip on my ass, pulled halfway out, and thrust. He drove into me, hard and fast, unleashing all his tension. I held on while he pounded me, my legs locked around his waist. The only sound he made was an occasional low grunt, and his eyes never left mine.

We watched each other, not breaking eye contact. His eyes were focused and fierce. I could see his climax building even as I felt it. See the lust and desire in his eyes. The tension rising.

It made me feel dangerous and uninhibited. The heat in my pussy grew, all sensation rushing toward the tantalizing feel of his cock sliding in and out. Pushing and pressing and grinding. Every thrust bringing me closer.

The look in his eyes intensified and his control slipped. He drove in again, his thick cock pulsing, and he buried his face in my neck to muffle his groans.

His hard thrusts as he came made me burst apart. All that heat and pressure exploded, and I held on for dear life, riding the wave of another orgasm.

He held me while we caught our breath. My mind slowly came back to reality and I blinked, looking around my office. A few pencils and pens were scattered on the floor. A stack of papers still fluttered down. My laptop had been spared, but my chair was pushed back against the shelf behind it and a few books lay nearby.

William gently kissed my lips and smiled, his dimples puckering.

“Wow,” I said. “I wasn’t expecting that.”

He pulled away and tucked his cock back in his underwear. Refastened his pants. “Me neither.”

I took a deep breath and got off my desk. He handed me my panties and I quickly slipped them on, then smoothed down my skirt.

He ran his hand through his hair, looking dazed. We heard more voices outside my door and I covered my mouth to suppress my laughter.

My cheeks were still warm, so I fanned myself. “I need to cool down.”

He brushed my hair away from my face and smiled. “I like it when you look like this.”

“Yeah, but I can’t let my boss see me,” I said.

He laughed and kissed me. “I’ll help you pick up. No one will know.”

We righted my office and I opened the window for some fresh air. But I wasn’t really worried. I was swimming in euphoria after two amazing orgasms.

But it was much more than that. With William, I felt free. Connected, and loved. Whatever happened, I knew he’d be with me, and that was all that mattered.
