Chapter 4
Blissful Masquerade: A Dark Why Choose Romance (Ruthless Desires Book 1)
I WATCH as Wren thinks over my question, biting her lip in a way that somehow makes my dick even harder.
Good, I think as she glances between the three of us. I want her to take this question seriously.
With a small smile, Wren looks up at me and nods.
I smile back. âAnd how much experimenting have you done in the bedroom, love?â
Her smile falls, and she looks away. âNot that much. I wanted to, but . . .â She shrugs. âDoesnât matter right now.â
I watch her closely, looking for any sign that weâre making her uncomfortable. Tension in her shoulders, too-wide eyes, closed off posture. But I find nothing except a hint of sadness that I know has nothing to do with us and everything to do with that motherfucker who broke her heart.
âIâm going to tell you a few things Iâve observed tonight. Tell me if Iâm right or wrong, okay?â
She nods again.
My fingers brush across her cheek, because I canât help but touch her. Sheâs like a fucking drug. âYou seemed to like it whenever Rhett restrained you. Specifically, when he raised your arms above your head, and when he pinned you down when Oliver was fucking you. Am I correct?â
She gives Oliver a heated glance, and he returns it. Then, with a blush, she says, âYes.â
âPretty sure you liked it when I choked you, too.â Rhett nudges her jaw with his nose, and I smile at the show of affection. Heâs done well tonight.
Wrenâs eyes widen, and a shy smile appears on her face. âYeah.â Then she turns to face me, an expression of cautious curiosity on her face. âWhat do you want to do to me?â
I smirk. âTie you up.â
Her lips part as the words register in her brain.
âYouâd be able to tell me to stop at any time. And I wonât tie you up for very long. Not this time, at least.â I watch as heat ignites in her eyes at the thought of doing this again. âBut I only want you to agree to this if youâre one-hundred percent on board.â
She doesnât even hesitate. âI want you to.â
Fuck me.
âGet on your back.â
She obeys, but not before giving Rhett one last kiss. Taking deep breaths, she watches me take out some soft ropes from a dresser drawer. Then I get to work tying her up. Every time my skin touches hers, she shivers. Rhett grabs his jacket from the floor and drapes it over her.
Jesus. I donât think Iâve ever seen him care this much about a woman since we were kids. Although it makes sense. Weâve all been drawn to Wren since the second we set our eyes on her.
I tie her so sheâs laid out spread eagle on my bed. She looks perfect against the dark comforter, even with Rhettâs jacket covering her.
Once Iâm finished, I stand at the bottom of the bed. âWarmed up?â
She nods, so I remove Rhettâs jacket, tossing it to him. She squirms under my gaze as I unbutton my shirt and shrug it off. Her eyes snag on the butterfly tattoo on my ribcage before I yank the rest of my clothes off.
When I crawl on top of her, sheâs smiling and taking my body in. I let her before I lean down and kiss her. Rhettâs taste is still potent in her mouth, and I groan.
I pull away before sheâs ready, and she tries to sit up but canât. With a half-laugh, half-moan, she lets her head fall onto the mattress. Good. I want her relaxed.
I squeeze her breasts. She watches my face, gasping when I lean down and take a nipple into my mouth. I alternate between sucking and licking it until sheâs writhing underneath me. Then, with a mischievous smile, I move to her other breast and do the same thing.
âElliot,â she groans, trying to roll her hips against my erection. But I keep myself just out of her reach. âElliot! Please, Elliot.â
I release her nipple, straightening. âPlease what, love? Youâre going to have to be more specific.â
She lets out a desperate huff, her eyes flaring as she realizes that Iâm going to make her beg for it. âFuck me?â
I raise an eyebrow.
âPlease fuck me?â
âYouâre going to have to be more convincing than that.â
She lets out a tiny growl that canât be categorized as anything other than completely adorable. âPlease Elliot? Please fuck me? Iâve wanted to feel you inside of me all night, and I need you to.â
I smirk. âThatâs more like it.â
It only takes me a moment to line up with her entrance. I feel her tense with expectation, her hips trying to rock me into her. So I sit like that for a moment.
Maybe itâs cruel. But Iâve craved her for so long. She always felt so untouchable behind the counter at the coffee shop, with her infectious smiles and giggles. I never thought this moment would come. And now that itâs here, I want to see her as desperate as Iâve been for months.
âElliot,â she yells. She tries to wiggle closer to me, but she canât.
Oliver snorts out a laugh as we watch her struggle.
âYouâre both ridiculous,â she murmurs, looking toward Rhett for any type of solidarity. But heâs barely holding back his smile, either. She sighs, slumping onto the bed.
And thatâs when I slam right into her. She screams, her back arching off the mattress, and I do it again. To my great satisfaction, she goes back to forming half-sentences, begging me not to stop.
So I donât. For a minute, anyway. But when I feel myself getting close, I slow. She lets out a groan of frustration.
Then I look to Oliver, and then to Rhett, before my gaze lands back on Wren. âCan we blindfold you?â
She nods without hesitation. Oliver grabs his tie from the floor, crawling onto the bed next to her head. With a trusting smile, she closes her eyes as he slips it over her eyes, wrapping it around twice before tying it at the back of her head.
Oliver gives her a gentle kiss before hopping off the bed. I slide into her again, and I hear her whisper a little, âFuck.â
I rub my thumb against her clit, and she gasps. God, this woman is so fucking sensitive, I have no idea how sheâs lasted this long.
It only takes a minute or two before Iâm close again. But based on her shallow breaths and the way sheâs clenching around me, she is, too. I catch Oliverâs gaze, nodding to her body, before doing the same thing with Rhett.
Theyâre on her in seconds. Each of them takes a nipple into their mouth, and she screams. Her wrists pull at the restraints as she comes, and I have to hold her hips down while she pulls me over the edge with her.
She shudders as she feels me filling her, moaning when we all pull away from her at the same time. I take a moment to recover while Rhett and Oliver work on her restraints. When sheâs able to sit up, she does, pushing the makeshift blindfold off her face. The second she sees me, she holds out her arms.
I climb onto the bed and pull her onto my lap. Sheâs shaking and panting as she wraps her arms around my neck.
âYou took that so well, love.â I kiss her hairline. âSo well.â
She moans into my skin before glancing at the other two. I canât help but laugh. Theyâre both hard again already.
She lets out an exhausted breath. âIâI canât . . .â Her head falls against my chest.
Oliver chuckles, leaning onto the bed to kiss her on the shoulder. âWe know, princess. We know.â
WREN MOANS AS I carry her into the bathroom. Rhett and Oliver have already said goodnight. And then they drew her an Epsom salt bath while I got her a glass of water and she recovered in the bedroom.
Setting her on the tile floor, I hold her steady until she gains her balance. âPee. And then youâre going to soak in the bath. Itâll help with the soreness.â
She smiles up at me, sated and sleepy, and I canât help but kiss her. Then she disappears into the small toilet room while I step into the giant tub.
When she joins me, I pull her in between my legs, with her back settled against my stomach. She sighs, her head resting on my shoulder. âTonight has been amazing, Elliot.â
I kiss her hair. âYouâre amazing, love.â And I mean it. I never expected her to last as long as she did. Hell, I didnât even expect her to come home with me, even while I was asking her to. The idea of her in my bed seemed too far off, too much of an untouchable fantasy.
And now sheâs here, her naked body pressed against me. Her breaths have evened, and Iâm pretty sure sheâs already fallen into a light sleep.
âWe really wore you out, huh?â I mutter into her neck. She lets out a soft moan.
I stroke her hair while we soak, staying absolutely still. When the water cools around us, she wakes with a shiver.
âReady for bed?â I murmur in her ear.
She nods, standing slowly. I step out of the tub first, grabbing a fluffy towel and drying her off. Goosebumps cover her skin as I finish, kissing each of her inner thighs.
I dry off quickly, noticing her noticing my erection. I canât keep my dick calm around her.
After hanging our towels up, I turn to find her with her arms outstretched. I pick her up, stifling a groan when she wraps her legs around my waist.
As I carry her to the bed, she grinds against me, all while yawning into my shoulder. I canât help but let out a laugh. âDo you want me to fuck you to sleep, love?â
She pulls away to look at me, smiling sleepily. Then she nods. âNo oneâs ever done that to me before.â
I watch her as my chest shakes with silent laughter. Is she serious? Is it even possible to literally fuck someone to sleep?
She kisses me sloppily, and I realize Iâm about to find out.
Once weâre settled under the covers, I pull her into a spooning position. I prop her top leg up, giving me room, and slide into her.
Fuck. How is she already so wet?
I fuck her nice and slow, not even trying to build her up to an orgasm. She sighs as I hold her to my chest.
It doesnât even take a minute before her body sags against mine. Soft snores fill the air, and I have to stop myself from laughing.
After cleaning both of us off with a warm washcloth, I find one of my old T-shirts and pull it over her small frame. She mutters something before settling against the pillows again.
Some type of emotion expands in my chest, one that I havenât felt toward many people. I clamp it down. Tonight has been too perfect to fuck it up by telling her how I really feel. It doesnât matter. The fact that sheâs in my bed is a miracle all by itself, and Iâm not dumb enough to walk into this with any type of expectations.
So after a minute of staring at her form under the blankets, I kiss her on the cheek. âSee you in the morning, love.â
