Gemini Heat (33 page)

Deana said not a word. She knew that he knew she'd obey him - and put his dark, infernal toys inside her. But in a relationship built on games, she now had an urge for a new one.

By denying him the description he craved, she could drive him inside his own imagination - as he'd driven her into hers. She granted him a sigh as the dildo slid deliciously into her vagina, and a harsh, unforced groan as the anal plug breached her bottom. But there was no running commentary and no detailed catalogue of pleasure. She obeyed his every obscene instruction, but gave him no means knowing it . . .

Jake's cries were animal and desperate. And as Deana lay on the seat in a foetal, panting ball, she could sense him doing the same, miles away. As she fought the rippling surges in her bottom, her loins and her belly, she heard
his
shouts and yelps of elation . . . interspersed, strangely enough, with his own complete description of what
he
was doing to himself.

The images were amazing.

She'd no way of knowing what Jake was wearing, but her mind showed him clad in a pure white shirt; its dazzling high-gloss pallor making his brown body look browner, and his prick look magnificent, purpled and dark. It rose like a staff from his naked groin and the lush black tangle of his pubic hair . . .

'Yes!' he shouted triumphantly, his slim, imaginary hips lifting up and humping the shadows. 'Oh God, yes, Deana, I'm going to have you! All of you this time. Every inch. Every curve. Every crevice. Every fold. I'm going to screw every hole of your sweet sexy body and you're going to come until you beg me for mercy! I'm going to lick you until you scream . . . You're going to be the best screwed woman on earth and you're going to love it! Every second of it!'

It was an extravagant claim, but as she scrubbed at her clitoris with her fingertip, she knew that this man could fulfil it . . . He could probably extract all these unthinkable acts from her and more . . . but only because he was beautiful enough for her to
let
him.

Deana laughed aloud, her body bouncing madly on the seat as her flesh clamped and pumped around the dildoes. She could've come from the touch of her own fingers; she could have come simply from the obscene images of Jake and herself that flashed like slides through her brain; she could've come from the hard rubber masses that abused both her vagina and her rectum . . .

But it wasn't any of these that had finally tipped her over.

It was power . . . Her own power. Sweet and hot and drugging. She was coming because she had power over herself and power over Jake. No matter what he screamed and ranted.

And as she lay in the back of a dark speeding limousine, sweating, pulsating and shaking, and listening to a man's grunting cries of release, she knew their contest had barely begun.

I can't take much more of this heat,
she remembered thinking, a million years ago in a stark white art gallery, when she'd been pretending to be someone else.

But now she knew she'd been wrong. She was crazy Deana Ferraro - Deana the fearless - and she could take anything and everything and just grow stronger and stronger and stronger.

Any act, any challenge. Any outrage or perversion. She could take it all, any heat that Jake cared to kindle. The question was, could he take the same heat from her?

And on that thought, she climaxed again . . .
