Damn him. He could’ve worn clothes.
But he didn’t. Not even sheets could conceal that erection as it lifted the silky material and pointed in my direction. That wicked smile of his spread across his face. Chase’s muscular arms were folded back while his head lay on his hands.
“Good morning.” Piercing green eyes dared me to remove the sheet. “Can I help you with something?”
“I’m fine.”
“You don’t look fine. You look hungry.”
“Which is why I’m going to take a shower and then go find your kitchen, where I assume somebody will be cooking, or I’ll have to prepare something for myself.”
“You’ll never have to prepare anything when you’re around me.”
“That sounds boring.”
“I’ll keep you busy with other things,” he rolled over to his side, “but that wasn’t the hunger I was referring to anyway.”
“I gathered that from your very hard dick.” I pointed.
He sneered. “Say that again for me.”
“What?”
“Tell me how hard my dick is.” That wicked smile brightened.
“Absolutely not.”
“You’re such a tease.”
“You’re really good at kidnapping.”
“Thank you.”
“It wasn’t a compliment.” I slipped out of the bed. “How are you able to move me around while I’m asleep? This is the third time. The first was when you got me from the plane to the hotel room in Paris, the second from the hospital yesterday, and here we go again.”
“Well, that’s easy. You’re a hard sleeper. Sure, you wake up a little when I pick you up and mumble a full conversation with your eyes still closed, but you’re not truly awake.”
“I don’t talk in my sleep.”
“Yes, you actually do. We’ve had some amazing conversations.”
I stood and placed my hands on my hips. “What have I said?”
“That you love me and could never be loved by anyone else.”
“You’re lying.”
“You wish I was, don’t you?”
“No, it just doesn’t sound like me.”
“Trust me. You said it, and you’ll say it again when you’re awake.” He got out of bed with no shame, his sheet sliding away to reveal rock hard man. Fuck. If I’d been a superhero, then Chase would’ve been my kryptonite. His body weakened me. His words triggered the space between my thighs to moisten and shiver. It was wrong for this man to walk the earth with no restraints or at least government-imposed regulations. He was lethal where I was concerned. Half the time I just battled with keeping my head clear around him.
I actually joined his freaking harem back in the day, for god’s sake. I’ll have to watch his behind.
“What’s on your mind, Jazz?” He walked over and paused a foot in front of me.
“You can’t call me Jazz. It’s what most of my family calls me. It’s irritating most of the time, but it’s their thing. They’re possessive on that ability.”
“Then what will I call you?”
“Jasmine.”
“No.” He rubbed those succulent lips with two of his fingers. “I want something that I don’t have to share. I want to yell that name when I’m moving inside of you and you’re moaning those nasty little things you say in my ear.”
I swallowed. “I don’t. . .moan nasty things.”
His voice came out as a growl. “Let me show you what you do, baby.”
I edged away. “You forgot that I told you no sex until I forgive you for what you’ve done.”
“What did I do exactly?”
“I’m sorry, but did you forget that part of when you had me drugged and taken out of the country?”
“Is that what happened?”
“Yes.”
“Funny. All I remember is fine dining on my private plane and a wonderful time getting to know your family.” He stepped closer until he was right in front of me. Power radiated from him and encircled my whole body. I felt naked and hotter than ever before. That was what that bastard could do to me just by being in my circle of space. He took over my area and controlled it. And each time, I struggled to gain my own control before I ended up being consumed. The tip of his dick pressed into my stomach. He was a madman. What type of man thought he could do that and get away with it?
Only Chase. My spoiled man.
“It’s not going to happen so you should put that away,” I said.
“Interesting. What should I put away?”
“Your dick.”
He groaned.
“You’re deranged.”
“Yes the fuck I am, and you did it to me.”
“Oh, no.” I walked off into the bathroom. “You’d lost it way before I came into your life. Don’t try to put the blame on me.”
He trailed behind me and got in the center of the doorway. “Are we taking a shower now?”
“No.” I pulled off my gown. “I’m taking one and you’re going to do whatever spoiled billionaires do when they don’t get what they want.”
“I’ve never met a spoiled one that didn’t get what he desired, especially not me.”
“Well, let today be a lesson to you.” I stepped into the shower and turned on the water. A hot stream of liquid lathered my skin. I changed the temperature to a cooler one and sighed. My nipples stiffened at the water and the alpha male glaring in front of me.
