Chapter 14

Audrina

Fun. We were going to have…fun? I eyed him, a little breathless, as the elevator shot toward our suite. Sin City spread out below us, glittering opulently as the hour crept closer to midnight.

I stared up at the King’s handsome face. “I’m sorry if you didn’t want to leave.” 

“I had no desire to stay.” 

“I thought I’d prefer to watch…” I swallowed hard. The truth was, I’d been horny as hell, anyway. Being around His Highness, Lord of the Anaconda, was enough to drive me to the brink. But seeing the others like that, the dancers, his brothers… I shuddered. 

“What is it?” Gabriel asked. 

“I guess I’m not interested in what other people do. Watching them made me uncomfortable. Sorry if that makes me a prude-” 

“Just because you are inexperienced, and prefer privacy, that does not make you a prude.” He gently brushed the hair back from my face. “I did not care to watch, either. To me, the act is empty when it’s like that.” 

My breath hitched. “Like what?”

“Casual.” He shrugged. “Pleasing in body only. I am not interested in such things.” 

“So you aren’t interested in casual…encounters.” 

“Not at all.” His gaze fixed on me. 

I sighed. I’d been playing a game, trying to get him to give in to me. And although I wanted that-I still wanted it, badly-I’d been using checkers instead of chess pieces. Try as I might, all my moves had been meaningless. 

“I guess I’m not into that, either.” Where did this leave us? My heart rate kicked up. “But you still… You still want to have fun?”

“Yes-fun. I intend to have some. With you.” A wicked grin spread across his gorgeous face. “Last I checked, we had a plunge pool to christen.”

“O-Oh.” I shuddered just as the door opened to our suite.

“I’ll grab some champagne. See you in the pool in five.” He sauntered off, all inherent sexiness and confidence underneath that ten-thousand-dollar suit, while I fanned myself.

Whiplash. I had such whiplash. He’d been cold, then hot, then cold again. Now we were back to smoking hot. 

He’d seemed on the verge of spinning out of control and giving into me, giving me what I wanted him, at least for the night. But now he’d gone and shifted gears again. He seemed back in control. 

And yet, he’d promised me fun. He’d promised champagne in the plunge pool. 

Curiosity had killed the cat, and now I knew why trying to figure this shit out was going to be the death of me. 

Still, with the prospect of champagne before me, not to mention Master in the plunge pool, I went to get ready. 

For exactly what, I had no idea. 

********

Someone had had the foresight to pack me a black bikini. It was a thong bikini, but at least it was something. Barely. 

I wrapped my arms against my chest as I padded down the hall. Music wafted out from the master bedroom, an old rock song with a driving beat I’d heard on the radio, years ago. 

The bedroom was empty. The doors to the balcony were open, letting in the cool night air. I shivered as I glimpsed Gabriel out there, the outline of his naked, chiseled chest reflected in the blue lights from the pool. 

I took a deep, shuddery breath. I wasn’t sure where Naughty Audrina had gone-all that was left was me, and I had to admit, I was afraid to go out there. 

I remembered Bianca’s words. Make your king happy and in turn, make yourself happy. Show him how you feel. Maybe I hadn’t done the best at that so far tonight. Maybe I could do better. 

But I hesitated. Just remember what game you’re playing, Audrina. I stared out at the king. I yearned for him in a way that went beyond the physical ache emanating from between my legs. That was exactly the problem. 

I went to him, anyway. 

“Ah. There you are.” A grin broke out across his handsome face as he eyed me in my bikini. “Excellent, excellent-I picked your suit out myself. I’m having fun already.” 

Now the thing made sense. “Ha. Good.” I shivered again. 

“Please, come in. The water’s warm.” He held out a big hand for me.

I took it, yelping as he pulled me into the pool. 

Gabriel waggled his eyebrows. “Is it hot enough?” 

Why was he being so adorable? “Y-Yes.” 

“I can make it bubbly. Would you like that?” 

I nodded, and he hit the jets. Suddenly the plunge pool transformed into a hot tub, the temperature climbing, bubbles rising to the surface. 

“I have more bubbles for you.” He poured two glasses of champagne, raising his to meet mine. “To being alone. And to bubbles-I like bubbles. And your ass in that bikini. I like that very much.” 

I laughed, clinking my glass against his. I sipped the cold, crisp champagne, the perfect contrast to the heat of the water. “Speaking of liking things, I’m surprised you have this song on. You like rock music?” 

“I like all sorts of things.” Much to my astonishment, Gabriel playfully pulled me onto his lap, directly onto his erection. 

Unf—unf, unf, unf. I bit back a moan as he settled it in between my legs, that same wicked grin on his face.

I tried to distract myself by ogling his massive pectoral muscles, which were so cut they were mesmerizing. But staring at his chest did little to ease the throbbing going on in between my legs. 

“I am very glad we left the party, Audrina. I much prefer a party of two.” 

Huh? Coming out of my lust haze long enough to understand him, I nodded. “Me too.” Did this mean I was finally going to get what I wanted? 

He rubbed his hard length against me, and I groaned. How was I supposed to be good when I wanted him so badly? 

His gaze raked over me. “What is the matter?” 

“Nothing.” My voice was hoarse. 

“Relax then, my Audrina. The master will take good care of you.” 

My heart fluttered in my chest. “Y-You will?” 

He stared straight into my eyes. “Do you trust me?” 

I wanted to say no. I wanted to tell him, once and for all, that we didn’t belong together. That the game we’d been playing wasn’t just about the anaconda and that it was becoming too dangerous because I feared it had begun to involve my heart.

I was getting swept up in him, in his world. The longer I stayed by his side, or on his lap, the more it seemed I belonged there.

But I don’t…

“Yes. I trust you.” The truth leaped out anyway. He’d done nothing to make me feel otherwise.

“Then let me take care of you, my angel.”

“I thought you didn’t want to…be close to me tonight. You kept pulling away.” 

He laughed. “Yes, and yet here I am again. I can’t seem to stay away from you, can I? No wonder you have whiplash.” 

I shrugged. “It’s not so bad.” 

“Nothing I can’t make up to you, I hope.” He moved closer, claiming my mouth with his. He tasted like champagne. I fell into it-into him-his kiss, his embrace, the feel of his massive arms around me as his big hands roamed my back. 

Dizzy, I pulled away. “But what… What are we doing?” It was probably a serious character flaw of mine that I couldn’t just relax and enjoy such a glorious moment-especially when I was pressed up against his ridiculously rock-hard body. 

“We are having fun.” He emptied his champagne in one gulp and put the empty flute down, all the better to let his hands roam over me, finally finding purchase on my hips. He turned me so I was straddling him once again, and then he kissed me so deeply, I forgot about everything but his lips and his tongue. 

Mmm. This was fun, all right. I put my empty glass next to his and threw my arms around his neck. I pressed my chest against him, relishing the feel of all of his straining, naked muscles against my boobs. Good lord. When we broke apart, I ogled the fine craftsmanship that made up his chest. How was he even physically possible?

His gaze burned into mine.  “I would like to feel your naked skin.” 

“Y-You would?” 

He arched an eyebrow. “You have to ask me that?” 

I laughed, sounding shaky to my own, and nodded. He slowly untied my bikini top, pulling the straps down until my breasts bobbed above the water. 

Gabriel hissed as he stared at me. “So beautiful. May I?” 

I nodded again, having no idea what I was agreeing to, and absolutely fucking no longer caring. 

He still had me on his lap, but he pushed off and brought us to the other side of the pool. My back rested against the jets and my tits rose above the water, creamy pale except for my nipples, which were dark pink and fully erect. Gabriel trailed his kisses down my neck, making me shudder, until he reached the sensitive buds. 

He bent down and took one in his mouth.

“Ah!” I cried out. The sensation of his cool mouth claiming me above the hot water made my insides go all squiggly. His erection pressed into my stomach as he took my nipple in between his teeth and gently nibbled me. 

I don’t know what was coming out of my mouth, some sort of moaning gibberish. But his touch felt so good. I felt as though I’d finally crossed some sort of finish line or won something. 

But there was more. I knew there was more… 

He bent over my other breast, giving it the same attention, and without making a conscious decision to do so, I wrapped my legs around his waist. His enormous, proud cock pressed right up against my skimpy swim bottom. 

A wicked heat descended upon us. A frenzy. 

I grabbed his hips, and he pulsed against me. Yes. That was what I wanted-the rhythm. I’d felt a hint of it in the backseat of the car, but as Gabriel continued to flex his hips and his huge, rock-hard cock snaked between my legs, I got a taste of what I wanted. 

I wanted him inside me. 

Without thinking, I undid his swim trunks. He was lost in the moment, still suckling my breasts, and I pulled them down and finally got my hands on that thing! 

It was huge, and I had no real idea what to do, but I had to explore it. 

Dear Anaconda, I love you. 

Yours Always, Audrina I ran my palms down his shaft, which was as wide as my arm, and trickled my fingers along his balls. They felt amazing-hard, heavy. I understood the mechanics of the male body, but to feel everything in action was something else entirely. Gabriel moaned as I slid my bottom off and finally felt him against me, naked. But the water was in the way. We had to get out—

“Woah, woah.” He was breathing hard. “I’m not exactly sure how we got naked?” 

“Me, it was me.” I kissed him again, desperately, running my hands over the anaconda, trying to figure out a way to pleasure him. 

“T-There,” he said when I’d circled the beast with my hand. “Like that.” 

He began to thrust inside my grip, and a sense of pure female satisfaction bloomed deep in my chest. Gabriel started kissing me again and I didn’t let go, increasing the pressure of my hand and fingering his balls with the other. I gave them a light, tentative squeeze and he groaned. Yes! 

“I want… I need…” I didn’t know how to communicate the extent of the ache between my legs. 

He kissed me again, so deeply, and then pressed his forehead against mine. “I know what you need, my Audrina.” 

He raised his eyes to meet mine. “And now I will give it to you.”
