“Oh, shit.” I froze as I heard a door slamming. “I think he’s home early, Lacey. What am I going to do?”
“Well, you have two choices.” She giggled. “Hurry out of the bath and get dressed. Or hurry out of the bath and go into full-on seduction mode.”
“What do you suggest I do?” I asked, my nerves on high as I heard Scott calling out my name.
“You know exactly what I’m going to suggest,” Lacey said. “I’m going to suggest you do the same thing you’re planning on doing.”
“Oh God, Lacey. Am I crazy?” I groaned as I stepped out of the bathtub and picked up the fluffy white towel and wrapped it around my body.
“Not at all.” She laughed. “Go for it, girl. Just don’t let your doubts make you nervous.”
“I wish I had a drink.” I groaned as I stood there trying to gain up the courage to walk out of the door. “I need some liquid courage right now.”
“No, you don’t,” Lacey said. “Go and have some fun. Go and rock his world.”
“I’m going.” I said and then hung up. I walked out of the bathroom at the same time that Scott reached the top of the stairs. He looked over at me with a surprised look and I saw his eyes reviewing my body eagerly.
“Elizabeth?” he said as he walked over to me with questioning eyes. “What’s going on?”
“You said the next move was mine, right?” I said and walked towards him. “Well, I’m ready to play, big boy. Are you?” I stopped in front of him and dropped the towel on the floor. Scott’s eyes widened as he stared at my naked body and I put my hand on my hip and tilted my face in a seductive pose.
“What’s your move?” I said as I walked towards him and pressed my body into his. His body felt warm next to mine and I could feel my body shivering against his as I waited for him to speak.
“Scott, where are you?” I heard a female voice from down the stairs and I froze for a second before grabbing my towel and running back to the bathroom, my face fire-engine red.
“Elizabeth, wait,” Scott said and grabbed my hand. He pushed me back against the wall and his lips pressed down onto mine firmly. He kissed me for a few seconds as his fingers played with my breasts and I moaned against him. “Go into the bathroom and wait,” he said as he pulled away from me, his eyes dark and mysterious.
“Who’s downstairs?” I questioned him, wanting to know who he’d brought back with him.
“Go into the bathroom, turn the light off, bend over the bathtub and wait for me,” he barked, not answering my question.
“But…” I started, but stopped as his eyes narrowed.
“Go,” he said, a slight twinkle in his eye. I turned around and walked back to the bathroom quickly. As I walked away, I felt his hand slapping my bottom and I turned to look at him.
“What was that for?”“Not listening,” he said with a smile. “Now go into the bathroom and wait. I’ll be there in a minute.”
“Okay, James Spader – I mean, Scott Taylor,” I said with a laugh and ran to the bathroom quickly as he shook his hand at me. I hurried into the bathroom and turned off the light and waited. My whole body was on fire, burning in anticipation for what was going to happen next. I bent over the bathtub and waited, my eyes closed and my ass tingling. And then I heard the door open and I almost jumped in excitement.
“Are you ready to play, Elizabeth Jeffries?” Scott’s voice was deep and husky. “I’d like to teach you a new game.”
Chapter Ten
“What new game?” I gasped as I felt Scott grabbing my hips and pulling me back towards him.
“You’ll see.” He laughed and I heard him undoing his zipper.
“Who was the girl downstairs?” I asked softly, as my body trembled.
“My sister, Liv,” he said, his voice husky. “We had dinner and I wanted her to meet you, but I guess you had other plans.”
“Oh, I didn’t realize,” I said and froze as I felt him leaning over me. “What are you doing?”
“I’m turning the water on,” he said as he turned the faucet on.
“Why?”
“You’ll see.” His fingers slid up to my breasts. “I didn’t know I was going to come home to a surprise.”
“Well aren’t you a lucky boy, then?”
“Yes,” he said, his voice husky.
“So where did Liv go?” I asked softly, slightly sad that I wasn’t getting to meet her. I was curious what his family was like. I wasn’t sure why, as it didn’t really matter.
“Home.” He laughed. “She was annoyed with me because my brother Aiden likes her best friend, Alice, and she thinks that somehow I’m interfering in their relationship.”
“Oh, how?” I gasped as he cupped my sex and ran his fingers between my legs.
“Because Alice and I kissed,” he said gruffly as he played with me.
“Kissed?” I moaned as my body shook. A small dart of irrational jealousy ran through me at the thought of him kissing someone else.
“Yeah, it was nothing. Totally innocent. A quick kiss, late one night, but apparently Aiden is all bent out of shape about it. Like he thinks I want her. Which I don’t. Not that she isn’t great. I love her like a sister, but everyone knows that Aiden and Alice are meant to be together. They’ve both had a secret crush on each other for years. They just need to get together already.”
