Captivated (Club Destiny #4.5) Page 26
Author: Nicole Edwards

Lucie was pretty sure that would never happen, and she got the impression Kane knew it.

Chapter Nine

Looking at Lucie had never been a hardship. In fact, looking at her was one of the highlights of his day. That’s when they were at work. But here, right now, seeing her naked and waiting for him, Kane wasn’t sure he’d ever seen anyone as beautiful as her. Dressed, Lucie was stunning, no matter what she wore. Naked, she was captivating.

Kane shut the door behind him, flipping the lock to avoid any mishaps in the event Haley woke up in the next hour or so. An hour didn’t seem like nearly enough time to do what he wanted to do with Lucie, but he also wasn’t sure he could last more than a few minutes. The woman made his skin overheat, and his dick to react like a hair trigger.

“I think you’re a little overdressed,” she stated in that sweet, raspy tone that sent chills down his spine. He loved her seductive husky voice, and watching her heart shaped lips form every syllable.

“You think?” Kane knew he was overdressed, and the only thing he was wearing was his jeans. He’d disposed of his shoes and socks before the three of them had taken their spots in the big bed to watch a movie. After checking on Haley and making sure the main door was locked, he’d dropped his shirt somewhere along the way.

“I want to taste you.” Lucie’s words surprised him, and based on the way her eyes widened, he was pretty sure she hadn’t intended to speak them out loud.

His only response was the animalistic growl that surged from somewhere deep in his chest. As he closed the gap between them, Kane pulled the button on his jeans from the mooring and then slid the zipper down. Once he was within touching distance of her, he stopped, staring down into her chocolate brown eyes and feeling as though someone had sucker punched him. She made him breathless, and the anticipation he felt at the thought of touching her again made him feel like a teenager.

Kane had been with a number of women in his lifetime and experienced more than his fair share of raunchy, take-what-you-want sex, but none of that compared to even the buildup he felt when he was with Lucie.

His mind drifted back to the conversation they had shared just that morning, and he almost flinched at the memory of what she said he had done to her. Although her description never hinted at her distaste for what had happened between them, Kane was still mortified at how he had treated her. He was almost grateful that he didn’t remember because he wasn’t sure he’d be able to look her in the eyes ever again.

She deserved gentle, loving caresses, not slammed up against the counter fucking, although that part of him was clawing to get free, to take her without hesitance... to own her.

“I don’t want sweet and gentle,” Lucie whispered in the otherwise silent room, her words bringing him back to the moment. For half a second, he had to wonder whether she had read his mind.

“You deserve that,” he replied, moving his hands to the gentle curve of her waist, his gaze roaming down the sexy, sleek column of her neck to the gentle curve of her collarbone, then beyond. Her breasts were tipped with sweet, dusky pink nipples, hardened and begging for his mouth.

“I want you, Kane,” Lucie whispered, taking another step closer until her breasts brushed against his chest. “I don’t want gentle right now. I know that’s not who you are and for at least the next few days while it lasts, I want the real you.”

Kane didn’t bother to tell Lucie that he was looking for more than the next few days. He had come to terms with that somewhere in the last few months and last night had solidified it in his mind. He didn’t just care about Lucie and her wellbeing because she was the mother of his child. He loved her. Deeply and with everything he was.

It wasn’t something he expected to happen, but he wasn’t going to fight it either. There was no point. For most of his life, Kane had wondered whether he would ever have that something more that others had found, and he had all but given up hope. That was until he met Lucie.

Not that he could say as much out loud.

“Are you sure?” he asked the question, although he could see the desire in her warm, dark brown eyes staring up at him.

“Positive,” she confirmed, then lifted her hand to his head, sliding her fingers into his hair and pulling him closer until his mouth met hers.

The kiss started out sweet, but within seconds it took a carnal turn. When Lucie nipped his bottom lip, her fingers lacing into his hair, sending shards of pleasure/pain racing through his scalp, Kane knew this night would be unlike any other.

Pulling back, Kane didn’t take his eyes off of her. If she wanted this, he was more than willing to give her everything he kept bottled inside, but he was going to do this his way. It was the only way he knew.
