The Billionaire's Bet #2: A Hot Call (BDSM Erotic) (6 page)

“Oh,
Julie!” he screamed.

It was hot and all I wanted was to please him. I was becoming what he wanted and I liked it.

I swallowed it all and when he took his half flaccid cock from my mouth he wiped my face with the back of his hand. Then he just stood there, bent over, panting. His eyes gauged mine for a reaction, but all I could do was take deep breaths, just like him.

“That … that was … Jesus,” he muttered, and he laughed. “God damn, Julie. I never knew you’d be up to so much. I’d thought you’d ring the ‘red’ bell anytime, but you just kept going like
a lusty woman.”

He unhooked the locks from the wooden guillotine
and freed my head.

“I just … I liked it,” I said, as he unclasped my legs. I lifted myself from the
bench, but felt so woozy I lost my balance. Dominic caught me and helped me up. He sat me down on the bench and freed my hands.

“
You did?” he asked. He looked into my eyes and had this shimmer in his, like he was uncertain that I was speaking the truth. “I want you to be honest with me,” he said. His fingers brushed along my cheekbones and cupped my face. “I know I’m rough and assertive.”

I snorted, hearing the word assertive.
Understatement of the year.

“What? It’s the truth. But anyway, even though I am, we’re still in this together and I want to treat you right. I want to make sure you’re okay with everything, because I don’t want you to be afraid of me ever again.”

I nodded and smiled feeling his fingers caress my skin ever so gently. He brushed aside a strand of hair and I looked at the droplets of sweat running down his face. Gosh, our sex was amazing and so out of this world. I couldn’t imagine going back to vanilla again.

“I’
m more than fine, master.”

He smiled the cutest smile, like his raging libido had suddenly disappeared, and pecked me on the nose. “You know, I think you can call me Dom now. I’d like it i
f you do. Dominic is fine too.”

I gaped at him. “Really? You’re just throwing the whole ‘master’ thing overboard now?”

“No, not really,” he said, chuckling. “I just want to keep it only for the playroom. In here. Our dirty little secret.” He winked at me. “I just like the way you call me by my name. Like the sound of it.”

My lips curled up into a cheeky smile. “
You like the way I say your name? Isn’t that cute. I never thought you’d be the guy who said such sweet things. Cheese ball.”

We both laughed. Looking into his eyes, I couldn’t help but see this vulnerable man. He was so visible, so naked, yet so closed in by this shell, this image he was putting up. There were some parts of his life he wasn’t showing me yet, but I knew, I could see that there was more to him than just this sexiness he portrayed.

He nuzzled me and placed both his hands just under my jaw line, cupping my face. He leaned forward and put his lips on mine. He was gentle, soft, this time, full of passion and desire, but not raw like before. This was sweet and tender. The kisses blazed their way into my heart.

Chapter 6

We’d only just dressed ourselves when the phone rang. Dominic ran off to get it in time and I came after him when I got my regular clothes back on. He
paced up and down, his brows furrowed, a stern, concerned look on his face.

“What? What do you want?” he said with a higher pitch.

His pacing became more like stomping. “No, Goddammit, I will not. Don’t call me again!” he shouted, and then slammed the phone on the table.

“What’s wrong?” I
said, leaning into him. He snorted loudly, his nostrils flaring. I tried to hug him, but he pulled away.

“Who was that, Dom?”

“No one,” he said with clenched teeth. “Work-related.”

I couldn’t help but think it was the woman who’d sent a message to him a couple of nights ago. Was he trying to get rid of her? Or was it someone else? My mind was spinning with questions I had no answer to and Dominic wouldn’t give them either.

“I have to go,” he said, and he grabbed his coat and stormed out the door.

It only took me a few seconds to decide to go after him. Screw the rules. I needed to know what he was doing and what was happening.

I grabbed my coat and followed him, staying far enough so he wouldn’t spot me. I hid behind bushes, trees and houses whenever I couldn’t walk behind him. He walked down the street, muttering swearwords, kicking trash bags and pebbles along the way. Then he went through a gate and into a cemetery.

What the hell is he doing there?

I tiptoed after him and hid behind a tree when he stopped at a grave. He sank to his knees and brushed away the dirt from the gravestone. His back was buckled and then it started to jerk up and down. His hand went to his face and he wiped something away. I swallowed away the tears. My eyes couldn’t cope seeing him in pain.

“Why did you have to leave me this mess, dad?” he screamed at the tablet.

My eyes widened hearing that.

“What am I supposed to do? I can’t deal with this.” Dominic’s voice was raspy and I could hear him sniff in between.

I couldn’t bear seeing him like this anymore. I needed to do something about it. To be there for him when he was obviously in pain, for whatever reason.

I moved forward and when I came close enough he grew silent in an instant. I stopped.

“I know you’re there, Julie,” he said, after a while. “I’ve known since you left the house.”

“Oh …” I slumped, defeated.

We were both quiet for some time. I didn’t know if he’d be mad, but I knew I couldn’t just let this be.

I bent over and put my arms around his shoulders. I kissed his tousled blonde hair and tried to wish the tears away. I felt him sob underneath.

“I don’t like to see you in pain, Dom,” I whispered.

He turned around in my arms and looked me straight in the eye. His blue eyes were clouded, his face red and contorted. He pushed his head into my chest and clenched his fingers around my coat. The cry that came out sounded more like a howl.

I shushed him, forcing away my own tears, as he heavily weeped against me. I patted his back and tried to calm him.

When he had enough air to breathe again, he raised his head. “I know how this must look. Strong, confident man with a controlling edge breaks apart in front of you, I must look pathetic.”

“No, you’re not. Everyone has a weak side.”

“Well, my weak side was thrown upon me like a brick wall.”

“We could talk about it, if that’s what you want. I’m here.”

He sniffed again and wiped off the wetness on his face. “That casino isn’t mine, you know. It was my father’s.”

“I’m sorry for your loss. I didn’t know.”

“I know. I hid it pretty well. He left it to me when he died. Along with some other nasty shit I can’t even speak about.”

“Is it that bad?”

“Oh, yes … worse than you can imagine. You really don’t want to know. When they say it’s a shady business, they’re speaking the truth.”

I nodded, listening intently.

“
I’m afraid, Julie …” he whispered into my coat.

“Of what?”

“That you’ll leave me.”

I frowned, confused and cupped his face so I could look at him. “Why? I thought this was only sex to you?”

“No, it’s not, but I’m always afraid … I don’t want to lose you, so I shut you out. If we go further, you’ll end up hating me and wishing you’d never stayed.”

“Don’t say those things! That’s not true. I’m not like that.”

“My previous girlfriend was.”

“Dom,” I said, hugging him tight. “What happened to you?”

He sighed and took in a few sharp breaths. “I never asked for any of this. My father died and he left me with a huge mess and I’m left to clean up the shit. And then my girlfriend left me, after I’d asked her to marry me. She only wanted the pleasure, not the commitment. It took me months to get over it and when I was finally ready to move on, you show up.”

I chuckle
d. “I show up? So now it’s my fault that you seduced me?”

He muffled a laugh. “No, I don’t mean it like that. I mean, I couldn’t help myself and tried to keep you from stealing my heart.”

He gazed up at me and I finally realized all along he was just fighting to fall in love. Fighting, because he was so hurt by his ex that he couldn’t bear the pain anymore. Fighting because he had a tremendous burden placed upon him when he wasn’t ready for any of it.

I had the sudden urge to smother him with love.

Dominic’s face was inches away from mine and I couldn’t resist. I brought my lips to his and kissed him gently. He cupped my face as I laced my arms around his head. We kissed with passion, the fire burning between us was inextinguishable.

“Oh, Julie …
I’m sorry. Work has been so tough lately and I used you to ease the stress, in the wrong way. I lashed out at you back then, on the couch. Don’t think I’m not ashamed of what I did.”

“I know, I could see it. Under the shower. I forgive you, Dom.”

“Thank you … I’m just … I’m so scared to lose the people I love. I don’t want to go through the same thing again. Caring so much for someone you’d do anything for them and they just drop you like a bag of flies.”

“I won’t, Dom. I don’t want anyone else. What you showed me was more than I could ever dream of and I couldn’t ever think of going back to where I used to be. You’re finally giving me what I want. I’m asking you to give in to me.
”

He smiled, tears running down his cheeks.
“When I fall in love with someone, it’s with all I have. I can’t bear to give it away if I’m not certain you will stay.”

“I will … I just need your trust, too. Like you ask me to trust you, even though it’s hard sometimes.”

“I know it’s hard, but I’ll never hurt you, at least, not in a non-sexual way,” he said, chortling. “I mean emotionally.”

“So you’re always faithful, no matter what? Because my ex cheated on me,” I said. I couldn’t help question him. I always questioned men.

“I’m a hundred percent truthful. I don’t need anyone else, Julie. You’re more than enough for me. You’re everything I desire and that’s what scares me the most. If I had to lose it again …”

“You’re not going to lose me,” I said, and I smashed my lips into his.

His arms were around me, holding me ever closer to him, like he wanted to meld with me. I could feel his pain, his suffering, his wish to have someone of his own who he could trust and I wanted to be there for him. I wanted to give him what he needed, as I knew he’d give me what I desired as well. Being faithful, loving and honest, that’s what we both wanted. We could no longer fight it.

I wanted to love him, just as much as he wanted to love me. No more restraints, no more holding back or trying to fight it. I’d give my all and he’d do the same. It was already happening. We were already falling into each other.
