The Unwilling Mistress (12 page)

“You are so beautiful Mia” he whispered huskily, bending down and lifting her into his arms as he moved over to the bed laying her down so carefully, as though she might break, before laying himself down beside her

Her hands had gone to his face to kiss him deeply, her tongue twinning with his as he tasted her breath. Lifting his head, his dark eyes had travelled down her taking in the swollen breasts, her nipples raised in invitation. With another groan he had lowered his head, his tongue tickling the tip of one, as his hand had pulled her hips closer against him. Mia had arched forward with the feel of him on her and her hand had moved to take the strength of him, gasping at the size of him in her hands. As she had moved over him, he had given a tortured sigh, his eyes opening to look deeply into hers

“Are you sure” he managed although he could hardly stop himself from moving against her hand, which was raising him higher than he could have ever imagined. Mia couldn’t speak, only nodding as her other hand had moved to hold his face, pulling it down onto hers, as her legs had opened in sweet invitation. Moving between them Drake had raised himself over her before sliding smoothly into her, the two of them gasping as they felt the other. She felt so wonderful her body holding him that he had groaned with the sudden urges which had flooded him. For a second he had remained still to calm himself, feeling how she moved against him, as he once more began moving so slowly, rocking gently against her, already feeling the waves building as she had gone wild beneath him, her hips moving against his, her hands holding his lower back hard against her until he had felt her explode around him, her head thrown back as she had panted and cried out in the darkness. With relief, he had allowed the sensations to swamp him taking his final thrust into her feeling himself filling her, his head dizzy as darkness had threatened, his throaty moans joining hers.

As she felt him collapse over her Mia had felt the tears rise, feeling something tear away from her heart. Never before had she felt such sensations, completely losing control of herself with the need to have him be part of her. Her eyes were dazed as he had lifted himself to look deeply into her eyes, his just as stunned by what they had shared

“Mia” he had questioned, seeing the small tear in her eye. She had smiled back tremulously at him still unable to speak as his mouth had kissed hers so tenderly

“I’m sorry” he muttered “I should have stopped…”

Mia had looked at him so tenderly

“No Drake, you were wonderful” she had sighed, her voice so soft, her eyes holding his full of such light and warmth that he had shivered with such unexpected sensations coursing through him

“Then what” he asked gently watching the tear wind down her cheek, his voice questioning

“It’s been so long” she replied quietly “There hasn’t been anybody since Ben…or before him” she added quietly, as he had taken in what she said.

“When Ben was killed, the man who was driving the car was over twice the drink driving limit” She began as Drake had moved to the side, watching her as he rested his head on the palm of his hand, seeing how her face had become so tortured

“But he was rich, very rich with a team of lawyers who worked so hard to keep him out of jail”

She paused for a second

“He got community service and his licence taken off him for five years… and as he was leaving court he winked at me, and asked if I was free would I be interested in going out for dinner sometime”

He could hear the hatred in her voice as she spoke

“God I hated him, and then Adam was put in jail because some other rich man had decided to use him to keep himself out of jail… but I knew I had to do something…not only for Adam, but to help win something for Ben, to show that sometimes just sometimes normal people could get justice”

As he lay quietly listening to her she had turned to him

“I thought you were the same Drake” she said softly, “some rich guy, who thought he could just have whatever he wanted, but you have been so wonderful” she said as another tear had slipped down her cheek. “I couldn’t have done this without you, and you didn’t want anything in return…just to help me”

Drake had shaken his head

“Please don’t paint me so white, Mia” he said softly “You were right about me…to start with I did just want to get you into my bed” she watched as he had frowned

“But then….I don’t know….it became so important to..” he had stopped as though unsure of the words, his face full of confusion.

Turning onto her side to face him, she had moved her hands to touch his wonderful mouth, her lips moving to kiss his so softly, as he had groaned feeling himself respond to her. Pulling her once more against him he had deepened her kiss, this time taking his time to explore her body as he moved down to kiss her long graceful neck before moving down to suck on her erect nipples causing her to moan a soft animal sound in the back of her throat. As his mouth had followed the small valley in her stomach to her belly button she had gasped feeling his hands moving down her side shaping her so softly. Calling his name, she had encouraged him to move lower, as he had moved between her legs his mouth finding the warmth between her thighs and his tongue flicking inside her so welcome.

Mia had held onto his head, as his mouth had first sucked then licked her pulling the very air from her lungs as her hips had moved against him, before she had felt the waves once more building feeling herself become rigid and swollen against him as she once more erupted against him, gasping and panting with wonder, once more amazed by her own reactions. As she had come down he had moved back up to kiss her again, allowing her to taste herself on his lips.

“You fascinate me Mia” he said softly “I have never met a women like you before” adding with a grin which made her laugh “And you taste so good too”

She had giggled

“Well let’s see if I can say the same” she had said wickedly before moving down him to take him in her hands. She had felt him stiffen in surprise and delight as she had moved her hand up and down against the hardness of him before feeling him shiver with anticipation and pleasure as her tongue had flicked over the tip of him.

As she gently licked him, her small mouth taking more of him as he groaned and moved his hips against her, his hands moving to her head she had run her fingers down his thighs, hearing how he moaned with pleasure. As she felt him tense he had pulled her from him begging her to stop, as she had stroked him, her mouth kissing his as she brought him to climax, his mouth gasping against hers as his whole body had shuddered. Pulling back she had seen the wonder in his eyes as his dark ones had looked so deeply into her soft blue ones.

Pulling her against him, he had gently kissed her hair as he stroked her arm suddenly feeling the need just to talk. Drake Trent had never been one to tell the women in his life much about himself, he was a private person, but it was as if a gate had been opened within him and he found himself telling Mia everything about himself as she had done back to him, this woman, who he had known for such a short time, but with whom he felt such a need to share everything with.

He told her about growing up in an orphanage and how he had bought his first hotel when only 20 and how he had by sheer will and ruthlessness made himself a billionaire owning some of the best known hotels in the world. She in return had told him about growing up and losing her parents while she was only 15, and of how her sister had looked after her, sacrificing her own career to bring up her baby sister. In between they had returned to each other their bodies demanding each other over and over again, until dawn had broke with neither having slept.

Rising they had showered together, before he had moved to her room with her to collect her bags, not prepared to take the chance that Jake would be there to grab his blackmail tape. As they had moved along the corridor, as Drake had most feared Jake had appeared, surprised to see him still with Mia, cursing as they had moved into her room. He would have to wait until Drake left he thought angrily to himself.

However ten minutes later when they had both reappeared, he had been confused to see that they were both carrying their bags and quickly he had gone to intercept them as they made their way down the stairs

Drake had listened as the helicopter had landed on the lawn at the side of the manor, smiling coldly at Jake.

“Mia has agreed to come with me” he said smoothly, seeing how the other man’s eyes had narrowed

“I hope that’s OK with you” he had said so matter of factly, with the implications that he didn’t give a damn if he did mind.

Jake Black had taken in how tired they both looked, his eyes scanning Mia for the bag, relieved when he had spotted it in her arms.

“Of course not” he said softly, his eyes looking coldly at Mia “Anything I can do” he added to her his eyes looking pointedly at the bag

She had smiled back at him before pulling it from her shoulder

“Could you give this bag to Mary” she had said “Tell her I’ll pick up what she owes me on Monday at the club”

Jake’s face had broken out into a huge grin as he took the bag, smiling at her.

“I’ll do that Mia” he said, his tone conspiratorial

“Remember to phone my office on Monday Jake” Drake called out as they moved to the helicopter hand in hand as the other man had watched them with a wide smirk on his face

“Oh I will” he had said softly “I will”

Once safely seated on the helicopter, Mia had smiled over at Drake happiness stamped all over her features

“I can’t believe we did it” she cried with delight, her eyes misting over, feeling as the helicopter had taken off flying so smoothly across the British countryside. He had smiled over at her, holding his mobile phone staring at it intently.

“Who is so important that you need to phone them right now” she had laughed gently, noticing how solemn his expression had suddenly become.

“Is everything OK” she asked worry creeping into her voice, just as he had looked back over at her with relief stamped on his handsome face as his phone had leapt into action finally getting a signal

“I didn’t want to worry you Mia, but phone your sister tell her to get out of your house and somewhere safe that we can pick her up”

Mia had looked at him dumbfounded

“Why” she asked in surprise, frowning slightly

“Jake is not a fool, the minute he sees that tape, he is going to start to look into your past, and it won’t take much to find out the connection between you and Adam. When he does he is going to find the letter gone, and if my guess is right then he will do anything to get it back”

Mia had looked at him stunned, the horror filling her features at the implications

“Oh my God, Sarah” she cried taking the phone from him and dialling her sister. With relief Sarah had lifted the phone

Mia had briefly told her what had happened giving her a place that they would pick her up. Sarah had agreed instantly, promising to leave the house immediately, and with relief Mia had handed back the phone to Drake, her eyes shining at him with wonder

“Thank you” she said softly, as he had smiled back at her.

As they landed back in London, Drake had organised for a car to pick them up and drive them to where Sarah was hiding, knowing himself too tired to drive himself. Beside him Mia had sat still her features showing the worry and tiredness she felt. As his hand had gently taken hers she had leant in against him.

Reaching the area that Sarah had told them she would be Mia had almost cried in relief to see her standing in the shadows waiting for them. As the car had stopped and she had jumped out, Sarah had jumped into her arms, hugging her with joy. As Drake had followed Mia out of the car, she had frozen in surprise quickly looking at Mia for an explanation.

“I’ll tell you everything in the car” she said with a small grin on her face

“Get in”

As they drove to Drakes estate, Sarah had listened intently her eyes wide with surprise as the story unfolded

“Thank you Drake” she finally said with such warmth and real feeling in her voice

“My pleasure Sarah” he replied softly, looking gently at Mia

Sarah had watched the way he looked at her sister, and the way Mia had leant in against him as she had been told the story. Inside her something smiled as she knew that finally Mia had moved on.

As they pulled up outside Drakes mansion, complete with security gates and more land than she could imagine Mia’s eyes had widened a small nervous feeling fluttering at the pit of her stomach. Seeing this he had grabbed her hand leading her into the wonderful foyer of the grand home. As the housekeeper had moved forward to meet him he had quickly given her instructions to make up an extra room for Sarah whispering gently into Mia’s ear to ask if he wanted her to make it two rooms. Mia had shaken her head shyly, her eyes looking deeply into his

“No, one will be fine” she replied seeing the way her sister had smiled as she looked at the floor. As the housekeeper moved away he had become more business like
