“Is it time to go?” I murmured, sleep blurring my voice.
“Shh,” Leo whispered, picking me up and carrying me to the helicopter in his arms. Out of the corner of my eye I saw the black shadow of Murdoch leap down and scurry behind us to pick up our things.
I was nearly asleep again by the time the helicopter took off. I couldn't believe how tired I was, but given that I had been up since before dawn, ran an auction, had amazing sex under a waterfall, and finally got to tell Leo my darkest secrets, I supposed I was allowed to be a little sleepy.
Leo took my hand as the helicopter soared through the air back to the mansion. His hand was warm and strong around mine and I knew that he'd never let me go. He knew my secret now and he didn't care. He didn't care what my parents had done, just that I was his.
It made me love him even more.
I didn't remember the flight home at all, but the jolt of the helicopter landing startled me awake. With blurry eyes and clumsy feet, I jumped out of the chopper. Leo helped me away from the whirling blades. I held onto him, trusting that he would make sure I didn't hurt myself.
“Come on, sleepy head,” Leo said gently, scooping me up in his arms once we cleared the helicopter pad. “You can't even walk you're so tired.”
I didn't fight him, even though I usually hated being carried. Being carried usually made me feel small and helpless, but not with Leo. With his arms around me, I was precious and protected. I snuggled into his shoulder, breathing in his comforting scent and letting him be in control.
I feel him take the stairs, his strong arms and back lifting me effortlessly. It was only at the top that he let out a chuckle and shifted my weight around. To be fair, they were steep stairs and I had a stomach full of chicken.
“Here you go, sleeping beauty.” Leo carefully laid me down on the bed and then pulled off my sandals. He paused, but left the dress on since it was now dry and moving me would be more work than it was worth.
“Don't leave,” I begged, catching his hand before he could turn. “Stay with me.”
He paused, clearly thinking about my brother sleeping just a few rooms down. “Okay,” he whispered, kicking off his own shoes and pulling off his t-shirt before sliding into bed next to me.
Now that he was with me, I pulled the dress up and over my head, pressing my bare skin against his. He wrapped his arms around me, placing my head on the hollow of his shoulder. He was so warm and comfortable, I knew I would never be content with a regular pillow ever again.
Leo's heart beat steadily in my ear, singing me back to sleep with every beat.
I slept, and for the first time in my life, the nightmares never came.
I
woke up sticky and hot with the sun in my eyes. But Leo was still in my bed. He was splayed out across the bed, snoring softly and taking up most of the room. I didn't care. He was here.
Sunlight filtered through the window, highlighting the soft golds and reds in his brown hair. His chest rose and fell, rhythmic and smooth and full of muscles and tanned skin. I couldn't believe how beautiful he was. Handsome was a word for men, but he was so much more than that. He was perfect, and even better, he was mine.
I was a lucky girl.
“Are you watching me sleep?” Leo's eyes stayed closed.
“Maybe.” I grinned at him, even though he couldn't see me.
“That's kind of creepy,” he informed me, keeping his eyes closed.
“But in a sweet, lovable kind of way, right?”
He opened one eye and one corner of his mouth tipped upward. “Definitely a sweet, lovable kind of way.”
This was heaven. It had to be. There was no way that a person could feel this much joy and pleasure and not be dead. It just wasn't possible.
“Want to shower?” Leo asked, his voice low and deep as he rolled over and stretched.
“Yes, please.” I nodded. I was covered in sweat and sex from yesterday, and besides, Leo hadn't seen my shower yet.
I had picked this room in the mansion as my bedroom for a reason. The view of the ocean was excellent, but certainly not the best in the building. I had chosen this room for the attached bathroom. The bathroom made it the best room in the house.
First off, the bathroom was about as big as a bedroom. There was the small toilet room off to the side and his and her sinks. The over-sized tub overlooking the ocean was certainly a selling point to the awesomeness of the bathroom, and despite having enjoyed several baths in it, was still not the best part of the room. The shower, far and away, was.
The shower was big enough for four people, with eight shower heads, a digital water thermometer which allowed different temperatures for the different heads, a rain feature, as well as a steam function and music selection. It was the best shower I had ever seen, and I worked for billionaires. I'd seen a lot of cool showers.
“Wow,” Leo said, standing back and taking in the massive shower. “Do I need a college degree to operate it?”
I gave him a gentle push out of the way as I went to the sink and ran a brush through my hair before starting the water. “Just push preset number one,” I told him.
Leo gave me a skeptical look before stepping inside the magic glass doors and pressing the button. The shower came to life with all eight jets and the rain feature all starting at the perfect temperature.
“I am never leaving your shower,” Leo informed me, closing his eyes and enjoying the luxury of the spray. I watched him for a moment, loving the way the water sluiced down his muscles and how his skin gleamed when it was wet.
“I'm actually, really, really alright with that,” I said, opening the shower door and joining him in the steamy water.
“I really like the way you look when you're wet,” he said, his eyes going up and down my body.
I raised an eyebrow at him, knowing he meant with water but enjoying the double meaning. “You are so dirty. Will you hand me the shampoo?”
“Then you better get me clean,” he teased, handing me the shampoo.
I quickly opened the bottle and poured some in my hair. I loved the way my shampoo smelled- floral but not girly.
“So this is how you always smell so damn good,” Leo murmured, coming up behind me. The bare skin of his chest, legs, and groin pressing into my back. I leaned back slightly as he put his hands in my hair and started to massage my head with his fingers.
I moaned softly, feeling any remaining stress I could possibly have leave my body. It felt so good just to be touched and taken care of. I was usually the one taking care of everyone and everything that it felt amazing to be pampered.
“Lean your head back,” Leo coaxed, pulling my hair into the water and rinsing the suds out. He carefully cupped his hand over my head to keep any of the bubbles from straying into my eyes. “Conditioner?”
I pointed to the corner where he had found the shampoo, unable to form sentences. Leo chuckled and added the creamy conditioner to my hair. I closed my eyes in bliss as he worked it into every strand, taking his time and making sure he did a thorough job.
“What do you have planned for the day?” he asked.
“Nothing,” I moaned. He tipped my head under the spray of water again and started rinsing. “Well, once I send out a few emails and make sure the world isn't going to burn, nothing. After the gala and auction- I'm taking a day off.”
“Good, you deserve a day off.” He squeezed the water out of my hair and I sighed, sad that it was done.
“What do you have planned?” I asked, putting the shampoo bottle back in its holder.
“I was hoping to hang out with my girlfriend.” He grinned at me.
I froze for a moment, my heart skittering and hoping. “Am I your girlfriend?” All my teenage dreams depended on his answer.
“Would you like to be?” Leo flashed me his confident, bad boy billionaire smile that made all this business deals fall into place.
I nodded, afraid my voice would come out as a high-pitched adolescent squeak.
Leo chuckled, pulling me to him and kissing me. I closed my eyes, soaking up the moment. Spray from the shower reminded me of our waterfall kiss from the day before and my body heated in response.
“All the other girls are going to be so jealous,” I said once he released me from his kiss.
“They should be,” he replied with a cocky grin.
I laughed, letting the sound echo around the shower for a moment. “What do you want to do today,
boyfriend
?”
I felt a little silly calling anyone
boyfriend
, especially Leo. He was most certainly not a boy and he was so much more than a friend to me.
“I was thinking of taking the boat out to a little beach I know. Thought maybe my girlfriend would like to come,” he replied with a smile. “Why do you think I haven't pinned you up against that shower wall and had my way with you already? I'm saving up for something special.”
A tremor of expected pleasure rippled through me. My legs parted slightly, wanting him to do just that. The idea of him taking me here, in the shower with all the water cascading around us... it made me wet with desire.
“I don't know if I can wait,” I told him. My body was already warming to the idea.
He shook his head, taking a step forward and pressing his body to mine. He was hard and erect between my legs. Just a thrust of his hips and he would have me.
I pushed my back toward him and at the same time, he slipped his arms around my stomach, breathing in through his teeth.
“Charlotte,” he whispered on his exhale. “You know that I can’t resist you when you’re like this.”
A smirk crossed my face as I looked over my shoulder at him. I then began to move my hips forward and back slightly, teasing him by sliding myself against the top of his shaft. Leo let out a soft groan as his powerful hands moved up my sides, pulling me closer to him. My back was pressed against his muscular torso and I could feel the cadence of his breathing as our bodies pressed against each other.
“Is that turning you on?” I asked, despite already knowing the answer.
Leo leaned forward, bringing his lips to the side of my neck. He kissed the sensitive skin, sending a pleasurable tingle through my body.
“Did you really just ask me that?” he asked, playfully.
His hands moved upward a bit further and he cupped my breasts, squeezing them gently and sending a burst of pleasure into my body. His touch made me want him even more and I found myself pushing back against him a little harder.
“Just do it,” I whispered, flirtatiously. “Be bad with me. Right now.”
The pace of Leo’s breathing began to increase as his hands moved across my front, touching all the right spots and causing me to get turned on even more. My entire body began to crave him. And even though we had just had sex the night before, I found myself wanting him more than ever.
“Please,” I begged.
Leo exhaled, his breath hitting my shoulder. Then he lifted one of his hands from my breasts and brought it around to my upper back. His fingers slid along my skin and up my neck, until he reached my hairline. I bit my lower lip and gently closed my eyes, enjoying his touch. The way he handled me made me feel so wanted, so craved. It was like he couldn’t control himself while in my presence and I loved that. It made me feel sexy, in a way that nothing else ever had.
His hand landed on my shoulder and then he pulled his hips a few inches away from me. I felt him between my legs. He was firm and erect, and I was ready. Without any hesitation, Leo bucked his hips forward, plunging into me. My back arched and my eyes closed as he began to fill me up.
“Oh my God,” I groaned, as I took him in.
Leo firmly pressed forward until he was all the way inside. My lips curled into an expression of complete bliss. I reached up and placed my hands on the tile wall of the shower, using it to hold myself up.
God, yes...
My jaw dropped and a squeal of pleasure escaped my lips as Leo began to take me. His powerful body pounded against mine, each thrust causing another wave of pleasure to course through me. The water from the shower poured over us, making our skin slick and creating a soft slapping noise as our bodies collided.
Ecstasy began to fill me, fueled by Leo’s thrusts of pleasure. Everything about the moment felt incredible, and it wasn’t long before I began rising to orgasm, just as easily as I had at the waterfall.
“Oh my God, Leo,” I groaned. “Don’t stop.”
Leo immediately increased the pace of his thrusts. I pressed back against him, taking him in as deeply as I could. And as my back began to arch further, the pleasure of the orgasm overwhelmed me, launching me into an ecstasy-filled heaven. The sensation was so intense that it took my breath away. A look of lust was frozen on my face; my lips parted and my eyes halfway open. I couldn’t believe how fast he had gotten me to climax again.
Leo continued his pace and slid his hand up my back. He grabbed a handful of my wet hair, carefully gripping it near my scalp. I smiled as he tugged it ever so gently, causing my back to arch a little further. The slight change in the position of my body was enough to create a different pleasure, immediately furthering the sensation from my oncoming orgasm.
“Yes...” I moaned, my voice echoing throughout the bedroom-sized shower.
He gave another gentle tug on my hair and then let go, bringing both of his hands to my hips. His grip was strong and steady as he held me, taking me firmly from behind. I wasn’t even pushing back against him at that point, because I didn’t have to. He had taken total control, guiding me over his cock as he pulled me toward him. All I had to do was hold myself up against the shower wall and let him do as he pleased.
Leo kept that pace for a while and then began to slow down. The intensity of the pleasure hardly changed at all, though. Each slow, methodical thrust filled me, keeping me floating in that state of bliss. My entire body tingled and the wetness between my legs continued to increase. I wanted to tell him how good it felt. But all that I could do is let out a soft moan. My mind was gone, lost somewhere in between the waves of ecstasy and the lust he created.
