Hunger (Seductors #2) (13 page)

When I walked back into the bedroom, Zara was already in her underwear, working her way down our target’s body with her lips.

“Please join us, Jade,” Mr. Monroe moaned as Zara bit down on his left nipple. I smirked, slipping out of my dress before stalking toward him. “Fuck, you two are stunning. I have no idea who to fuck first!” Zara sat up and straddled him, rocking herself against his erection. “Shit! Okay, Zara, you win. I’ll take you first.” He grabbed her breasts, pulling the cups of her bra down before sitting up to devour her naked skin. Zara looked over at me with a questioning look.

“What about me?” I pouted, removing the pins from my hair, allowing it to fall down my back. “Don’t I get any attention?”

“Fuck! Girls, what are you
doing
to me?” he stressed, licking his lips before pulling me onto his lap instead. “Maybe I’ll fuck you first. Shit, your tits are amazing!” He grabbed my breasts roughly, and the only thing that entered my mind was Oliver. No, I didn’t want anyone else to touch me that way. Before I knew it, I’d ejected the pin into his neck, paralyzing him out of anger.

“Thank Christ that’s over,” Zara stressed, getting up and grabbing her clothes. “I take it you set off the tracker while you were in the bathroom?”

“Yes,” I muttered, getting dressed, as well. Mr. Monroe was lying there with his eyes wide open. “I’m sorry, Mr. Monroe, but the FBI are on their way. They’ve been looking for you for a
long
time.” His eyes showed pure rage, but of course he couldn’t move. “Don’t underestimate blondes in the future. They will be your undoing,” I chuckled, winking at Zara.

“Goodbye, Mr. Monroe. It was
fun
,” Zara giggled, grabbing her purse as we both turned around and walked out the door.

“You did really well, Zara,” I smiled sipping my wine. We were back at our hotel having a drink in the bar.

“I thought I was going to lose it when I saw all those guys in the back room.”  

“You just have to keep a clear head, and you did. We work really well together.”

“We really do,” she beamed. I was about to speak when my phone rang. My heart skipped a beat at seeing Oliver’s name flash across the screen.

“Excuse me,” I muttered, taking my phone and walking out into the lobby. “Hey,” I breathed, answering.

“Hi, Beautiful.” I could hear the smile in his voice.

“How’s it going? Have you gotten over the jetlag yet?”

“Almost,” he chuckled. “How are you?”

“I’m fine. Maybe a little lonely,” I admitted.

“Me, too. I can’t wait until I can come home to you. I wish I’d brought you to Russia with me now.” He could ignite so many feelings inside me with just a few words. He thought of me as home, which was something I’d never had before.

“It’s funny how quickly things can go back to the way they were, huh?”

“Yes. I promise I’ll go slow this time, though, Jade. We’ll take this at the pace
you
want.”    

“I don’t deserve you,” I sighed. It was the truth. How could Oliver love me? It made no sense. Then again, he didn’t know the real me. Would he still love me if he did?

“Why do you say that?”

“Ignore me. I’m just missing you, that’s all. It’s been so long since I’ve been with you. I’m starting to crave your touch.”

“I know, Beautiful. I feel the same way. I’ll be home soon, I promise, and when I am, I’m not going to let you leave my bed for weeks.” I had to hold my legs together at his words and the timbre in his voice when he said them. I had to wait
two weeks
? That was too long!

“You’re not helping my need for you, Oliver,” I scolded.  

“Sorry,” he chuckled.

“You’re not sorry,” I teased.

“I wish you were here with me, Jade. I’ve got some really heavy meetings and social events to attend in the next few days. I could really use your calming influence,” he sighed.

“You can call me any time—night or day. I’m here, Oliver.”

“I know,” he exhaled. “I’ve got to go for now, though. Alicia is calling me. I’ll speak to you in a few days.”

“Okay. Miss me.”

“You know I will,” he muttered before we both hung up.

“Was that ‘the top target’ calling?” Zara asked as I joined her back in the bar. I nodded. “Are you and Alicia really
both
on this mission?”

“Who told you that?”

“Jade, you know how it is at headquarters. The gossip is awful. So…who’s winning? You or Alicia?”

“Well, Alicia has him all to herself for two weeks.” I smiled sadly. “Does that answer your question? They’re in Europe together.”   

“Then what are you doing still here? We’ve completed our mission. Book a damn flight. You can’t let Alicia win this one. She’ll never let you live it down if you do.” Zara had a point. What the hell was I doing here? I
should
be in Russia!

“Can you email Sonia the progress report so our mission can be marked as complete?”

“Yes,” she chuckled. “Now,
go
!”

Chapter Eight

The flight to Russia was long, but the anticipation of seeing Oliver kept me going. By the time I’d cleared my time off with Brian and booked my trip, it had been over a week since I’d seen him.

Russia had a bitter chill in the air. It didn’t help that I’d arrived in the middle of the night, either. I wrapped my coat tighter around my body before catching a taxi to the hotel.

Oliver had called me almost every day since he’d left for his trip. I could only hope that me turning up like this was going to be a good surprise for him. He was worried about his uncle’s reaction to me being back, which was why he hadn’t asked me to go with him in the first place.

As I checked into the hotel, butterflies invaded my stomach at the knowledge that Oliver was in the same building somewhere. Probably curled up in bed, fast asleep. Images of bright white sheets caressing his body were driving me crazy.

When I got up to my room I took a shower, trying to calm the hunger that was seeping into my body. I needed to focus and not get carried away when I finally saw him. I had to make sure shy Jade was controlling the situation, not the
real
me. No matter how much I loved him, this was still a mission.

To get ready, I slipped into a tight red dress, knowing Oliver loved me in red. I completed the outfit with matching red underwear because it was the only way I could express the hellcat I really was. It saddened me to think about the future. Would he ever get the chance to know the real me? When I left the Seductors, I’d be coming back as Jade Gibbs. I’d have to act and lie my entire life. Could I really do that?

I finished straightening my hair and touched up my makeup before calling him. He was restless at night, so I half expected him to be awake.

He answered on the third ring. “Hello?”

“I didn’t wake you, did I?” I stressed.

“No, Beautiful. I’ve been dozing on and off, but I haven’t really slept yet,” he soothed. “Are you okay? You don’t usually call at this time?”

“I just needed to hear your voice.”

“Missing me that much, huh?” he chuckled.

“You have no idea. I dreamt about you last night.”

“Did you now? What kind of dream was it?”

“I think you know,” I giggled.

“Christ, Jade, don’t get me worked up. The night is when I crave you the most.”

“Oliver, what would you do if I told you I was in the same hotel as you right now?” My body was trembling.

“Don’t tease me, Jade,” he pleaded.

“I’m not, Oliver,” I whispered. “Tell me your room number and I’ll prove it.”

“Shit! Jade, if this is a joke it isn’t funny. I’m in the Royal Suite on the top floor.”

“Royal suite?” I giggled. “I think the money is finally getting to you.”

“Stop teasing and get your sexy ass up here,” he ordered. “The things I’m going to do to you if you’re telling the truth.”

“Mmm…” I purred. “I can’t wait.”

“You’re really here, aren’t you?”

“Wait and see,” I giggled, hanging up.

I checked my reflection in the mirror before heading out into the hallway. My hands were trembling as I pushed the button for the elevator. In a matter of minutes, I’d be in Oliver’s arms. I knew full well of the powers he could hold over my body. Now that I was in love with him, it was going to be an entirely new sexual experience for me. I’d never made love with anyone before. It had always just been about sex.

Before I even reached Oliver’s door, he opened it. Standing there in black sweat pants, he watched me approach like I was a hallucination or something. My breath hitched as I watched his hungry gaze.

“You’re here,” he gasped, still gawking at me.

“Why do you look so shocked?” I grinned, stepping closer toward him.

“You came all this way…for
me
?”

“I didn’t want to wait two whole weeks to see you. I’ve waited long enough.” His eyes became soft as he pulled me into his arms.

“What do you want, Jade?” he asked, running his hand through my hair, moving a stray strand from my face.

“You, Oliver. I want you,” I strained. Losing every last bit of my control, I crashed my lips against his. My arms wrapped around his neck, molding him to me as we kissed. Now that I was back in his embrace, how would I ever let him go? He responded with a groan, lifting me up in his strong arms. I heard a door close as he carried me, and realized he must have carried me to his bedroom.

“This is going to be rough at first,” he snarled against my lips. He ran his hands down my body, undoing the clasps on my dress as he reached them. “I’ll be softer after, I promise. Let me devour you first, please?”

“You really think I’d say no?” I panted, feeling my dress fall to the floor.

“Fuck, I love you in red,” he growled, taking in my underwear before turning me around. His hands explored my body greedily, cupping my breasts while his lips attacked my neck. Reaching behind me, I wrapped my arms around his shoulders for support. “Are you ready for me?” He pushed his erection against my ass before moving his hands down into my panties. “Shit, you’re so ready,” he snarled, turning me around to face him. I groaned, watching him put his fingers into his mouth, tasting me. That was an Oliver trait I’d never get tired of seeing.

“Fuck, that’s a taste I’ve missed,” he moaned before lifting me off my feet carrying me to his bed. “But then my cock has missed this more.” He smirked seductively, pulling my panties off with one tug before removing his sweats. Holy crap, I’d forgotten how wonderful his cock was. Arousal seeped toward my center. “Do you want this, Jade?” he groaned, stroking my folds.

“YES!” I pleaded, throwing my head back as the tip of his cock grazed my entrance.  

“Do I need to wear a condom?” he suddenly stressed. I didn’t want anything between us.

“No, not if you don’t want to. I’m still covered. I haven’t been with anyone else, either.”

“I need to warn you,” he whispered, looking directly into my eyes, “I won’t give up if you disappear again. I
will
find you, Jade.” He meant every word he was saying. That much was clear. “I can’t
ever
lose you again. If we do this now, it’s for keeps.”  
      

“Oliver, I’m not going anywhere.” What was I saying? It was even scarier that I believed what I was telling him.

“Promise me you’ll stay.”

“I promise,” I beamed, leaning up to kiss him. He opened his mouth, allowing my tongue to dart in and dance with his. His hands moved up under my ass to lift my hips, and with one deep thrust, he was inside me. Feeling so full and complete after so long was pure bliss.

“Fuck!” he winced. “You’re tighter than I remember.”

“Ugh! It’s been six months since anyone has been down there,” I moaned as he pulled out and slammed back in.

“That’s because this is
mine
,” he growled, running his fingers over my clit. “No one can fuck you like I can!” He slammed into me harder, rotating his hips. Oh, he really was fucking me now. I fisted the sheets, losing my mind. All I could feel and see was him—nothing else mattered.
