The Heart's Domination (Touched By You 3) (11 page)

Alone and relaxed, looking out at the view, Natalie felt like she was in a storybook setting. Tanner chatted and they laughed together about silly things. Nothing that was important. He was just like any man one might fall in love with. Yet, he wasn’t.

He was unbelievably handsome, charming and wealthy. But, Natalie had loved him since the first moment she’d met him in a dark room of a concert hall, when she didn’t know he had a penny to his name.

“What are you thinking?” Tanner asked.

A smile came across Natalie’s lips, and she said, “I fell for you so long ago, that first night at the concert.”

“Yes,” he said. “That does seem long ago, and in another way, it seems I’ve known you forever.”

It struck Natalie that was a very romantic thing for Tanner to say. He could be naturally so romantic, yet seemed unaware of it. “Well, I guess it’s to my credit that I was smitten before I knew you were immensely wealthy. That may rule me out as a gold digger.”

“Yes, you didn’t know ……,” he said.

“That is a point in my favor,” she retorted.

“And n
ow that I’ve met you,” Tanner said, his baby blue eyes gleaming “the money…well….it wouldn’t mean anything without you.”

Natalie was taken aback.
She had no idea Tanner felt that way.
Shouldn’t she have?

“Tanner, I’d love you with or without the money. It’s you that makes me happy. That day we went to the countryside, I had the urge to run away with you.”

“What would we be running away from?” Tanner teased. “All of this.” He swept his hand around, indicating the lovely restaurant and view. He laughed.

And seeing the absurdity,
Natalie laughed with him. “I see your point.”

“But
for tonight, instead of staying at one of the big hotels, I’ve chosen One by the Five. A place any two lovers would want to stay while in Paris,” he told her.

Tanner realized he was ruined - he wanted only to be with Natalie. He couldn’t imagine being with another woman.

He wasn’t sure exactly when it had happened, but he could not ignore that it was different with her than it had ever been any of his sexual conquests. Only Natalie could satisfy his needs. He could never go back to his old ways.

“You’ve been there before?” Natalie asked.

“Never,” Tanner looked into her deep, brown eyes. “That’s another reason. You’ll be the only woman to ever stay there with me. It will be special.”

At the
suite, Natalie walked around, noticing all the special touches. The satin bed reflected the soft-mood lighting. Cloud murals were painted above - on the ceiling - and below - covering the floor, literally surrounding the bed. The head of the bed was bolted to the wall and hung at waist level. It had nothing at all underneath; no support of any kind. So, it appeared to fly among the white clouds in the blue sky that surrounded it.

There was a sumptuous foyer with ruby-red curtains and exquisite chandeliers. Described as an indulgent love-nest, Natalie agreed it was perfect for their last night in Paris
this time. The mood was romantic and sensual, yet fun and exciting.

“I have a gift for you,” she said and felt
suddenly embarrassed.

“For me?”
Tanner replied, a delighted look on his face. “No one buys me gifts.”

“Well, they should,” Natalie stated and reached into her bag to take out a box wrapped in gold paper.

Tanner couldn’t imagine what it was. And it had been hard for Natalie to find something. After all, what do you get the man who has everything?

He ripped off the paper and opened the box. For a moment, he didn’t say anything but
his eyes gleamed.

He took the item out of the box and held it in his hand. “A pe
nis ring….you know what a man likes.”
Natalie loves Tanner
was engraved on the back, causing Tanner to blush when he read the endearing words. She’d known revealing her love was a bit much for him. But, it’s how she felt.

Natalie looked at t
he gold ring, studded with glimmering diamonds. “The penis ring you used before had quite an effect on me. I decided to buy you one with real gems in it. I’ve gotten to know a few people at Clarke Luxury, so was able to custom order. I hope you like it.”

She knew the answer when Tanner began taking her clothes off, and then his.
His fingers were hot and his touch was electric on her skin.

He whispered, softly in her ear, “Let’s try it out, shall we?”
He placed the gleaming ring around the base of his heavy cock. The soft lighting in the room gave his perfectly-muscled naked body a soft illumination, making his taught skin shine. His deeply veined cock was spotlighted by the rays of light that bounced through the perfect-cut diamonds.

Natalie
’s heart swelled with love. Excitement radiated through her. It would always be exciting with Tanner. His passion for sex and never-ending creativity had become an obsession for her. She admitted liking his style. Taboo or not, she craved it now, as much as he did.

She looked into Tanner’s d
ark blue eyes, filled with lust. Her gaze fell to his huge cock, jeweled with the diamond penis ring. He opened his arms to her, with a mischievous smile, and she melted into his embrace.

Tanner
lifted her feet off the carpet, and with her on top of him, fell back onto the satin bed flying through the blue sky and fluffy white clouds. “You’re mine, baby – the only woman I want.” For Natalie, his words were magic. Even though he couldn’t say the word, she knew he loved her.
