Heart Robber (Lifestyle by Design Book 2) (12 page)

"But you're only there for four months. What happens when you return here?"

He wondered if Andrea had an ulterior motive for asking that question or whether she was just interested as a friend. He figured whatever her intentions were didn't really matter.

"We have no long-term commitments."

"So what's her name?" she asked buoyantly.

"Jessa Allen."

"Maybe we can all catch up together with my hunks."

"Maybe," he replied noncommittally. "So are you seeing those two guys at the same time?"

"No, I don't think they're into threesomes," Andrea joked. "I'm just keeping both of them close, as I still haven't chosen which one I want to be my Sydney boyfriend."

He chortled, feeling very relieved. Andrea could be very stubborn and difficult to pry loose when she had her mind set on something. At least she didn't seem set on wanting to get him back anymore.

Or so he thought.

CHAPTER TWELVE

Rob heard the elevator ping and his heart galloped in anticipation as he stood outside the door of his apartment to wait for Jessa. In three seconds, she appeared, her face mirroring the face-splitting grin that formed on his.

She looked delectable in a light green dress that moulded to her beautiful body and strapless heels that could only be described as sexy. His breathing shallowed as he watched her walk towards him, his body hardening in the right places.

"Hi," Jessa said shyly when she reached him.

"Hi," he croaked then gently pulled her to him for a sweet, lingering kiss.

His heart pounded in his chest as they kissed softly for a long moment. He found the presence of mind to finally pull away and lead her inside. He closed the door and pinned her against it with his hard body.

"I missed you," he breathed before capturing her mouth again. This time, his kiss was passionate and deep and needy.

Jessa moaned and fisted her hands through his hair. He revelled in devouring her mouth. Her lips and tongue were as fervent as his, restless in their giving and taking.

Needing to feel more of her, he cupped her breasts just as she slid her hands underneath his shirt and ran them over his smooth back. He groaned and his kisses became even more avid. He left her mouth to lavish attention on her neck and throat as his hand reached for the zip at her back and tugged it down impatiently.

Jessa shimmied out of her dress eagerly, seemingly just as keen as him to get rid of that barrier between them. Then she lifted his shirt to undress him. He raised his arms as she bunched it up his chest. He helped her by pulling it off his head.

"Jess," he hissed as Jessa placed heated kisses on his upper torso. He watched in anticipation as her lush lips got closer to his nipple. "Ah!" he gasped as she flicked it with her tongue.

He felt her fingers undo the button of his jeans. "Baby, no," he warned as he grabbed her hands to stop her from unzipping his fly. One of her arms slung around his neck and pulled his head to hers. The scorching kiss she gave him made his hand on hers loosen.

He knew when her lips left his to leave a burning trail down his body, and he knew when she unzipped his pants and pushed them down his knees along with his boxer briefs. But by that time, he was helpless to stop her. He was bewitched and caught in her spell.

Suddenly, she was on her knees, her pretty face right in front of his hard-as-steel cock. She peered at him through her lashes as she captured it with her hand and gently stroked.

"Baby," he grunted.

She gave him a seductive smile before she put the head of his thick erection in her mouth and started to lick and suck.

"Ahh! Jessss."

He stretched out his arms in front of him and braced himself against the door as he gazed down at Jessa - his beautiful Jessa in only her lacy bra and panties - pleasuring him with her mouth. He'd had women who'd mastered the art of giving oral sex to a man, but those experiences paled in comparison to the feelings Jessa was evoking.

He knew he was very close. Her hand stroking him, her mouth sucking him, her tongue licking round and round his cock head were just driving him to the point of no return. He gently pushed her shoulder to make her stop but she continued enthusiastically, putting an arm around his behind to keep him from moving away.

"Baby, you've got to stop now. I'm gonna come," he rasped.

Jessa just moaned in response and kept on going. He couldn't hold off anymore. He groaned loudly as he exploded in her mouth. She didn't miss a beat and lovingly licked him dry.

He stayed braced against the door, gasping for air and trying to catch his breath. Jessa gingerly got up from her kneeling position and stood within his extended arms. He snaked one arm around her waist and pulled her close. "Jess," he panted reverently in her ear.

She hugged him to her and waited until he was ready to move again.

*******

A contented smile played on Jessa's lips as she listened to Rob's breathing calm down. She couldn't believe what she had just done. She'd always thought she would never want to swallow a man's come but when she had Rob in her mouth, the thought of pulling away didn't even occur to her.
Maybe because it was Rob.
She loved it, loved that he lost control because of her.

Rob straightened and put both arms around her, squeezing her tight. She looked up at him, her breath hitching at the dreamy smile on his face. He gave her a swift kiss on the lips before releasing her and bending down to fully discard his jeans and boxers that were wrapped around his ankles.

She giggled, feeling heady and powerful.

"Well, my little witch, I believe it's my turn to have my way with you," Rob said, his eyes glinting. He bent down again and, much to her surprise, hoisted her on his shoulder.

"Rob!" She tried to sound indignant but her laughter gave her away.

They reached his bedroom and Rob dropped her gently on the bed. He blanketed her with his body and kissed her softly before gazing at her with an enigmatic expression as he gently ran his fingers through her hair.

Her heart stirred at the tenderness of that moment.
I love you,
she wanted to say out loud, but she knew there was no way she could say that without scaring him off, so she lifted her head instead for another kiss.

Rob moaned softly and deepened the kiss as his hand travelled to her breast. He pushed her bra aside and played with her already excited nipple. She whimpered as arousing pleasure engulfed her.

"Time to take this off," Rob murmured against her skin as he reached behind her to unclasp her bra. She arched her back to aid him. Now that both of her breasts were free, Rob continued his amorous attention to them, sucking one nipple and lightly pinching the other with his fingers. She moaned loudly.

He moved downward, his lips leaving a fire trail on her belly, her hips, the inside of her thighs. She panted hard in anticipation.

His fingers played with the elastic of her panties as he licked and kissed her against the material. She was burning. Her arousal was already heightened to melting point earlier when she laved kisses on his heaving, pure male, muscular torso and had his beautiful cock in her mouth. Now he was plain driving her crazy - and making her act wantonly.

"Baby, take it off, please," she pleaded.

Rob looked up at her with a triumphant grin. "This?" He gathered the front section of her underwear and pulled it tight against her crotch. She gasped as the material rubbed against her clit in a delicious way. "You want me to take this off?" he asked as he repeated his action.

He was teasing her again, the bastard. But he was so good at it that she was at his mercy. "No! Yes!" she cried.

"What's it to be, sweetheart?" He kissed her again through the material.

"Take it off, then lick me there," she said brazenly, too consumed with need to be shy.

"As you wish, my little witch." He slid her undies off, pushed her legs apart, and then leaned in between them. "You want me to lick you here?" he asked hoarsely with hooded eyes.

She could only nod her head, her mouth dry.

"You're so wet, baby," he whispered as he touched her soaking part.

"Rob!" she mewled. "Please."

Rob lowered his head and unleashed his tongue on her swollen nub. Her hips involuntarily jerked up from the force of sheer pleasure. He kissed her with his expert mouth - licking, laving and sucking.

Her moans became louder and more breathless. She reached down blindly, unconsciously looking for something to hold on to and squeeze as her body got closer to climax. Rob's hand grasped hers. Her hand held on to his tightly as the other held his head between her legs. She cried his name as she found her release. He didn't stop until her trembling did.

Rob raised himself up when she relaxed. He gave her a quick peck on the lips before he stood up and went to his suitcase on the floor. She noticed he was ready for action again and smiled smugly.

He came back to the bed and put a box of condoms on the bedside table before stretching beside her.

"You're ready again." Her lips twisted upward as she reached down and caressed his shaft.

"Uh-huh," he agreed as he nuzzled her neck and cupped her breast.

"I wonder if we'll always be like this. Plan to eat food but end up …" Her cheeks flamed, unable to say the words.

Rob's head reared back in laughter as he detected her discomfort. "What, baby? Plan to eat food but end up eating each other?"

"Rob, seriously, you're so dirty," she giggled.

"But you wouldn't have me any other way, would you, Miss Take-It-Off-And-Lick-Me-There?"

She blushed. "You had me so hot I couldn't help what I was saying."

Rob chuckled. "That's how I like it. And right now, I plan to make you hot again." He took a nipple in his mouth as his fingers found her sensitive nub and stroked.

It wasn't long before she was, once again, burning. She watched Rob put on the condom and was surprised when he asked her to lie on her front.

He angled her right leg so she was slightly raised from the bed and positioned himself behind her. He sank into her wetness slowly, deliciously, before he set his rhythm that had her panting out loud. His tempo increased and he took her higher and higher as his shaft repeatedly rubbed the right spot inside her.

"Oh, Rob. Rob!" She convulsed as she came hard and tightened all around him.

He pulled out and gently moved her so she was lying on her back. He pushed her legs up and wide, giving her sex a quick kiss before inserting himself again in her. He thrust in and out of her with purpose, his face taut, then he was calling out her name over and over as he climaxed powerfully, triggering another one of hers.

*******

"Do you cook at all?" Jessa asked Rob as she watched him heap cartons of pre-packaged food in his trolley. They'd just had lunch at a nearby cafe and since his apartment was practically empty of supplies, Rob asked if they could go grocery shopping.

"Sure. Isn't putting food in the microwave or oven considered cooking?"

She chuckled. "I mean cook something from scratch on the stove."

"Hardly. It's not my favourite thing in the world to do, although I love eating." He gave her a wink and a wicked grin as he said the words 'I love eating'.

She shook her head in mock exasperation. "You're so naughty."

"Naughty? Now, why would you say that? What exactly did I say that was naughty?"

She narrowed her eyes at him but couldn't keep a smile from spreading on her face.
 
He was baiting her and she wouldn't give him the satisfaction by answering him. She changed the subject. "So you either eat out or pop pre-prepared food in the microwave or the oven?"

"Yes, mostly. Or I make sandwiches," he said as he pushed the trolley with one hand and ran the other lightly on her back. She wanted to purr at his touch.

She glanced at his trolley. At least he chose rather healthy meals, even though they were pre-packaged. An idea cropped up in her head. "Well, since I'm staying with you tonight, how about I cook dinner at your place?"

He walked slower as he looked at her. "Really? You want to? I was thinking I'd take you out to dinner."

"Have you booked a place yet?"

"No."

"Then why don't we stay in? I don't mind cooking at all. I actually enjoy it. You can take me out some other time."

"Okay," he smiled as he gave her a quick kiss on the lips. "Sounds like a great idea."

"Good. Now we have to go to the fresh food section. Is there anything you want in particular?"

"I eat anything, so whatever you want to cook is fine."

A new cheese product was prominently on display in one corner and Rob stopped there to inspect it as Jessa milled through the fresh food section, searching for her ingredients.

On her way back to Rob and the trolley, her steps faltered when she saw an attractive brunette talking to him. By the looks of it, she was interested in Rob and wasn't afraid to let it show.

She stopped completely. The flirty woman looked good. Really good. She could see why someone like her would have enough self-confidence to talk to someone like Rob in a supermarket. And Rob was … well, he wasn't exactly flirting back but he wasn't shooing her away either. Did he find her attractive?

She felt fear grip her heart. She was sure this wouldn't be the last time other women would want Rob for themselves. What if he found someone else he liked while he was in Sydney? She was very much aware her hold on him was flimsy.

Jessa Allen!
She heard her own berating voice in her head.
What's the matter with you? That's your boyfriend right there. You're not giving him up so easily because of your insecurities, are you? Now go and show that woman he's taken - for now, at least. Go!

She forced herself to move with a confidence she didn't feel.

Rob saw her approach and smiled at her. "All done, baby?"

She smiled sweetly back at him as she put her items in the trolley.
Hear that, bitch? I'm his baby.
"Yes, honey. We can go home now."

Rob started pushing the trolley. "Thanks for the tips. I'll tell my girlfriend," he said to the brunette as they walked away.
