Seduction: Book 4 (Strong Young Women Series) (12 page)

“Fine. Just stop will you?”

Gabe smirked and put his phone back in his pants pocket.

“You have to swear that this doesn’t leave this apartment.”

“Yeah, yeah, I swear.”

Gabe laughed until his sides ached. Rafe glared at him, but he wasn’t worried. The stupid boy had allowed a woman to tie him up. Who does that?

“I’m back.”

They both heard Kelly’s voice as she opened the front door. Gabe waved to Rafe as he walked out of the bedroom and kissed Kelly’s cheek shaking his head all the time. “Kels,” he
said and was out of the door, whistling and smiling at his good fortune to have something to hold over Rafe. Blackmailing him was going to be so much fun. He now owned the sucker.

Rafe watched Kelly bounce into the room and get rid of her dress in record
time. She picked up her tub of Devonshire ice cream and walked to the bed. Why it had to be that brand he had no idea. Women. She opened the lid and scooped some onto the spoon she was holding and brought it towards his mouth.

Okay, he knew why. He had never tasted ice cream that good. She brought more to his mouth and he opened his mouth again. After two more scoops, she started scooping and droping the ice cream onto his body. The first drop was a shock as he hadn’t anticipated that and his body jerked.

She licked the ice cream and moaned. So sexy. Rafe groaned at her moan and wished she would move faster. Just a little.

“Kels, please.”

“You can’t hurry an artist,” she said with a smile.

Rafe snorted. “We can make art again later, just please…”

Kelly smiled and went down his body, smearing ice cream and licking as she went. She finally reached his cock and smeared more ice cream on the mushroom head. His cock head twitched and the ice cream fell off. “Oh, look what you did,” she complained and licked it, then added another blob onto his head again. “Don’t move.”

The thing had a head of it’s own. How could he control it? “Kels, please.” They had been going through this for minu
tes now. Each time his cock twitched, throwing off the ice cream she had would painstakingly drop onto his head. It didn’t help that he was getting harder and harder. More desperate as the little game went on. He kept thinking of what he would do when he was finally free of the restraints.

He groaned when she too
k a large scoop into her mouth and leaned down, taking his cock into a mouth already filled with ice cream. Her tongue circled his cock, spreading ice cream and finally licking it all off. She sucked and sucked, and sucked until he had no choice but to erupt into her mouth.

Kelly rose up and kissed his mouth, the flavors of ice cream and his sperm fighting for dominance.

“Untie me,” he growled pulling hard at the restraints.

“Not yet,” she said as she pushed back and took him inside, sinking hard and fast onto his body. She bottomed out and started moving up and down his shaft. Kelly leaned forward and
kissed him, moving her behind faster, riding him as he pushed his tongue into her mouth. “Rafe, I love you.” She deepened the kiss and pulled his lip into her mouth.

“Oh, baby.”

“Rafe,” she whispered, kissed his lips and lifted herself off him, turned around and rode him as she gave him her back. Kelly gripped his knees and started moving again, riding him hard. Kelly moved faster and faster as if she was being chased, trying to attain that satisfaction

Rafe never disappointed in giving her. “Oh…” Kelly cried. The angle was impossibly good. She felt like she could break int
o two, but still wouldn’t care. “Rafe…Rafe…Rafe…Ra…” Kelly cried and trembled, screaming and slamming harder and harder onto him. She tensed as her orgasm became too much and hung on as Rafe continued pushing up against her then finally snarled and tensed as he too climaxed.

Kelly finally got the energy to move. She lifted herself off Rafe and
untied his hands. He rubbed his wrists, then enfolded her into his arms. “I love you too Kelly,” he said and took her lips on a wild ride.

“Why are we going to a party that I am only hearing about at the last minute,” Ana grumbled. “It’s a Friday night and we could go somewhere better than a stuffy party. And besides, I still have a few things I need to do to prepare for my conference in DC next week.”

“Sorry baby. It was last minute for all of us too. Kelly, Evelyn and Jessica are also having to dress at the last minute.” Gabe hoped she didn’t put her foot down and then he would be forced to reveal she was the guest of honor.

“Well, I don’t have anything to wear, so we can just skip it,” she hedged.

Gabe almost rolled his eyes. “May I?” he asked.

At her shrug, he walked in
to her closet and came out with something he’d always wanted to see her in. It was risky because now every male would be looking at her, but he needed her to be the center of attention.

Her eyes grew large. She swallowed. “You want me to wear that?”

“Yes,” he answered. “Is there anything wrong with it? It’s gorgeous.”

Ana walked closer to him. “That it is. But do you realize I can’t wear anything inside that dress?”

Gabe unzipped the dress and held it out to her as she stepped out of the robe she had been wearing. She lifted her hands and allowed him to drop the dress onto her body. The look on Gabe’s face said a thousand words. she wondered if the dress would survive at the end of the night. He was in a habit of destroying her dresses when he was impatient.

Ana walked to the full length mirror to see for herself what she had seen through Gabe’s eyes. The silver and gold dress shimmered with each step. You couldn’t tell whether it was really silver, or whether it was gold. Somehow the colors worked. And the design was amazing. Long with thin straps, a fitted bodice
and a slit up to her mid thigh.

She went to her shoe closet to find some heels, then she sat down and
put on minimal make up as always and pinned her hair up with a silver comb and found matching earings. Afraid of overdoing it, she decided to forego a necklace or bracelet. She was already glittering enough with her dress. After one final look in the mirror, she joined Gabe who was waiting for her in the living room.

Ana sent a text to Kelly who told her they had just arrived.
She intended on finding Kels as soon as they arrived. At least she wouldn’t be bored with Kels beside her. And hopefully Evelyn and Jessica would be there soon too. She had been surprised at the fast turn of events. Nate and Jessica. Yes they made quite a good couple. And tonight she would get to see them in a social setting, one of many more she hoped.

Gabe helped her step down. Her slit was in danger of ripping. She smiled thinking of how she would have to go back and find a different dress to wear. She looked up as soon as her feet were on the ground and was surprised to find Nate and Rafe hovering outside. Where was Kelly? And Jessica? They both turned as they approached.

Nate was the first to reach out to her and took her hands, turned her around and whistled appreciatively. “You look beautiful Ana.”

“Yes, you really did go out,” Rafe agreed and took her hands, turned her around as well, then dipped her and kissed her cheek.

Ana, unprepared screeched in fright. She laughed as he brought her back up. “Well, what kind of party is thing anyway? Gabe didn’t seem to have the details? It is a nice venue, I’ll tell you that.”

Rafe and Nate took a hand each and guided her inside.

“Well, why don’t you come inside and see? I think you’ll love this party,” Rafe told her.

“The event planner who put this together is the best, if I do say so myself,” Nate agreed.

Ana was surprised to walk into a room full of employees from Sullivan & Sullivan. She realized she didn’t know everyone, but she remembered a lot of faces from her initial introductory meet with most of them, and the announcement the brothers had done after calling a company wide meeting. “What’s going on?”

Kelly walked up to her, hugged her and told her congratulations.

“For what?”

Again, Jessica hugged her as well, gave her a huge smile. “Congrats! And I hope you like what I did with the place and that you’ll enjoy the food.”

Ana turned slightly then saw a huge board on the wall. ‘Welcome Zen Technologies to Sullivan & Sullivan’

She was suddenly in Evelyn’s grip as she too congratulated her. Well at least now it made sense, although she was surprised about the need to do a party. After all Zen Technologies had only been a company with one person who also happened to be the owner.

So technically this was a party for one person. It felt nice to be appreciated, but for one person? Or did these boys just enjoy parties, and had needed the excuse of having one? Whatever their reason, the night was suddenly looking bright. Very bright.

“Oops.” Ana was engulfed in a huge hug from Mitch who after he stepped back, turned her around and whistled. Now with everyone looking, she suddenly felt shy. At least she was wearing a great dress. But being paraded like a piece of meat they were thinking of buying wasn’t something she wanted to continue with every male.

Gabe pulled her away and told her they would celebrate later. He pulled her against him and lifted her head up, bent down and kissed her softly until the brothers around them cleared their throats as a warning. He smiled. “Congratulations baby.” He surreptitiously rubbed her nipple through her clothing. “Go mingle, and later I’ll come find you.”

Just as she was about to leave, she saw Manuel and Stefano arrive. They were fashionably late. Manuel was teased by his brothers about how he needed to make sure his lipstick was’t smudge
d, thus the late arrival.

Rafe took her around, ma
king introductions to their key employees and their spouses. Drinks and food was flowing and people were taking advantage of the free bar. She saw Jessica run around making sure everything was in order. If this was a taste of her wedding planning skills, Ana was really glad she had decided to follow her insticts and go with her.

Ana was surprised to see Tom. He even came with his parents. They shook hands with Ana and t
old her how much they appreciated what she had already taught their son so far. How much less trouble he had been into since Sullivan & Sullivan had taken him under their wing.

“Hopefully, we can keep him on the straight and narrow,” she told them.

Rafe switched places with Nate, and they went around meeting the rest of the employees. Ana was amazed that both brothers seemed to be familiar with all their employees, their names and even their spouses or significant others. Since she would need to work with all of them at a later times, she wondered if she would ever get to the point of tying each face to the correct name.

After that, it was a full fledged party. Jessica had found a Dee
Jay who knew his music and after a makeshift dance floor had been cleared, couples and singles took advantage. Ana was dragged into the dancing crowd by Stefano.

“Slow down,” she told him. “I’m wearing heels and my dress could rip apart if I take long steps.”

“That’s quite a dress you have there, love.”

Ana giggled. “I know. Gabe’s choice, not mine.”

Stefano whistled slowly. “I wonder why since he seems to be giving every man who is looking your way, the evil eye. Did he really think nobody would look?”

Ana went into his arms. “As long as nobody tries to dance with me, we should be okay.
And the party should go on without a hitch.”

“Most people seem to have come with a partner, so hopefully they will remember that fact.”

Ana danced with Stefano until the end of the song, then a fast dance song was played and Kelly, Evelyn and Jessica joined them. This was almost like their college days, Ana thought and smiled at Kelly who was grinning as she gyrated on the dance floor. Being couped up indoors must really have felt like she was in prison, because she was dancing like someone who was aware that this was a one time deal.

Ana remembered her days of being couped indoors. After she could sit, it hadn’t been so bad because she had managed to dabble on some work on her laptop. Now Kelly didn’t have that luxury, unless if she sat there and read medical journals all day long. Ana screwed up her face and shook her body in distate. That would be pure torture.

“Macarena, really?” Ana asked as people started forming lines, singing and dancing the macarena dance. Ana tried to think how old she had been when the song was released. A toddler really and after that she lost her train of thought as she was bumped into due to her slowless. She righted herself and started following the others. Soon she was so engrossed in the dance that she forgot that it wasn’t a song for her era. But what fun it had been to dance.

Screams of repeat broke out when the song ended, and the Dee
Jay was forced to play it again. The enthusiasm of the crowd was infecticious. More people joined and more lines were formed and more space was cleared.

“Oh, wow!” Ana said as she found the closest chair to fall into.

“That was something,” Kelly agreed.

Evelyn groaned, lifted her legs and rubbbed her aching feet. “You sure know how to throw a party Jes. Where did you get that Dee
Jay?”

“He’s my secret weapon,” she said with a corresponding groan. “He does private parties too, so we can hire him for Ana’s bachelorette,” she said with a mischievous wink.

“He’s not bad on the eyes either.” Ana nodded in agreement.

“Says the girl about to get married.”

“I’m not blind Kelly.”

“I bet Gabe would like her to be,” Evelyn said. “Well at least against other men.”

“Whatever,” Ana replied. “We’re focusing on the wrong person here,” she quickly added. “Jes has something to tell us.”

“About your wedding?”

“Oh, no girl. About you and Nate. When did it happen and how is it going?” Kelly asked.

Jes blushed and they all laughed. “I’m still trying to figure it all out.”

“What do you mean?” Evelyn asked.

“Your brother just invaded my space and wouldn’t take no for an answer. Suddenly I couldn’t make my own decisions. He broke into my house, yes and I mean that literally, then had a new and what he says is a stronger lock replace the old one,
moved me into his place, then assigned bodyguards on me. Oh and he told me what happened on the train Ana. I’m really sorry you had to go through that.”

“Thanks Jes. We are just hoping this guy is caught soon. It’s really cramping my lifestyle to be going everywhere with shadows making sure he isn’t lurking around somewhere.”

“Well, no wonder we haven’t seen him since Sunday. You know his penthouse is right opposite Rafe’s? They are mirror images of each other,” Kelly told her.

Jes nodded. “He did mention it, but I have been busy with Ana’s party and have been coming home a little late each night,” she said. “I still work from my house in Jersey and had to call my team for this gig. They are all supposed to be on vacation for another
week,” she explained. “Then after that we have several small gigs lined up.”

“We need to meet before I leave on Sunday. That conference I told you guys about a few weeks back? Yes, well, it’s next week. I’ll be away all week with Tom,” she said laughing. “I’ll need to tell you how Tom ended up going. It’s a really fun story,” she said as the men dropped onto them.

Ana followed Gabe’s lead onto the dance floor. Everyone had been cleared from the floor and it was just the two of them. This almost looked like a bride and groom having their first dance on their wedding day. Hopefully he had requested a good song, Ana thought to herself.

As soon as he took her into his arms
, ‘Girlfriend by Daniel Bedingfield’ suddenly blared through the speakers. Wow. Ana smiled and moved closer. Then she looked back and saw Rafe leading Kelly, Nate leading Jes and Mitch leading Evelyn. Okay, Ana thought as she lifted her eyebrow. This seemed to have been a planned dance.

“I know it’s my party, but can we go home after this?” Ana asked, her head laid against his chest as they moved slowly on the dance floor.
More couples all round had joined and were dancing just like them.

“Baby, I thought you’d never ask,” he said and held her tighter. “Just thinking about you in that dress…knowing you don’t have anything underneath…baby, it’s driving me crazy.”

Ana lifted her hands to his neck and smiled. “You chose the dress, remember?”

He growled at her. “I know. It’s still a good choice, but it’s driving me crazy.”

“It’s a great dress, and I feel beautiful in it.”

Gabe stopped moving and started walking off the dance floor. “Come,” he said at her expression. “I need to have you now.”

Ana pulled back. “Gabe, you’re crazy. This is a public place and moreover, not a hotel, so no room in sight.”

Gabe pulled hard and she landed on his chest. “Who said we need a room?”

He tried several doors, then finally Ana was led to an empty room that looked like an office, though not yet set up. There was just a desk in the center, but no chair. She was rushed inside, and the next thing she heard was the door locking as the bolt clicked. She found her back against the wall and his lips found her mouth, swallowing whatever words she had been about to say.
