ログインROWANNE POV.“Good morning, Mr Carter.”“John, it’s good to have you here,” Eli replied, his voice calm and authoritative as he shook the older man’s hand with a firm grip.I stood a step behind them with my arms wrapped loosely around myself against the biting dawn chill while I was blinking the sleep from my eyes. I barely slept last night and now he’d dragged me out here before the sun even considered rising. I had no idea where I was, only that the wind was merciless, whipping strands of hair across my face no matter how many times I pushed them back.I exhaled shakily, watching my breath fog in the cold air. The younger Carter was turning out to be far clingier than I ever imagined. Not that I minded.Eli looked unfairly perfect, fresh, and radiant in a way that made my stomach flutter. His fluffy brown hair, slightly tousled by the wind, fell softly over his forehead in boyish bangs that clashed with his cold and intimidating aura. Still, to me, they only made him look heartb
ELI’S POV.But the ache inside me kept building, the need to take her completely, growing stronger with every second. I leaned down, my lips brushing against her ear as I whispered, “Turn over, Peach.” Her breath hitched, and for a moment, she hesitated, her eyes meeting mine. But then she nodded, her body trembling as she shifted beneath me, rolling onto her stomach. I sat back, my hands sliding down her back, tracing the curve of her spine as I admired the view in front of me. She was perfect, her body arching slightly, her hips lifted as she braced herself on her forearms. “Rowanne, do you have any idea how beautiful, you are?” I muttered under my breath, my hands gripping her hips as I positioned myself behind her. I dragged my cock along her slick folds, teasing her, the heat of her wetness driving me wild. I groaned, my head tipping back as the sensation sent a shiver through me. “You’re soaked, Peach. It's driving me crazy.”“Eli,” she moaned. “Please…” That was all
ELI’S POV.“Eli,” she whispered, her voice trembling as she clung to me, her arms wrapped tightly around my neck like I was the only thing keeping her grounded. “When?” I asked softly, my lips brushing against her hair, my hands splayed firmly on her back, holding her close. She took a deep, shaky breath, her chest rising and falling against mine. “Last night,” she murmured. A slow smile spread across my face. “Peach…” I whispered. She leaned back just enough to meet my gaze, her eyes searching mine, her expression soft yet resolute. “Because I want to be yours,” she said but her words hit me to the chest. “I thought… since I’m your woman.” Her words were so soft and yet held that subtle sultriness only Rowanne could pull off. I couldn’t take my eyes off her lips as the tip of her tongue flicked out, wetting them. God help me, I didn’t stand a chance. She said she was my woman with a look of such innocent seduction that it left me speechless. It felt like a dream, a dream
ELI’S POV.Behind the numbers, etched in delicate precision, were her initials.My breath caught as I studied the watch. I had countless timepieces, more than I could ever need, but this? This was the only one that mattered. Her initials on something I could wear every day. Was this her way of marking me? Claiming me? If it was, I already knew I’d never take it off. “Isn’t it pretty?” she asked, her voice brimming with pride. “The store was surprisingly quick with the engraving.” I licked my lips, my eyes lifting to hers, and for a moment, I couldn’t speak. “Let me put it on for you,” she said, stepping closer. “I want to see how it looks.” Her hands reached out, taking the watch from me. She was so close now, and as she gently wrapped the band around my wrist, I could feel her warmth. Her fingers brushed against my skin, sending sparks up my arm. But I wasn’t looking at the watch anymore. My eyes dropped to her chest.Her hair fell softly over her shoulders, but not enough
ELI’S POV.“Welcome back, Mr Carter,” Beck greeted as I stepped into the villa. I nodded at her curtly, my eyes scanning the empty space. The silence was oddly heavy, almost unnerving, and there was no sign of her. I loosened my tie, tugging at it absently as I looked back at Beck, my voice low and direct. “Where is she?” “Ms Carter? In the bedroom, sir,” she responded, but I barely heard him. My nod was automatic, my feet already moving as I yanked the tie free and draped it over my shoulder. My pace quickened with every step, anticipation coursing through me. When I reached the bedroom, I stopped in the doorway, my hand gripping the frame as my eyes took in the scene. Bags. Shopping bags were scattered across the room in an almost chaotic way, yet it only made me smile. My heart raced in a way I hadn’t expected, a rush of excitement blooming in my chest. I stepped into the room, clearing my throat as I tossed my tie onto the bed. My fingers moved to the first two butto
ELI’S POV. The morning light filtered through the curtains. I straightened my tie in the mirror, my reflection staring back at me. I had a series of meetings ahead, but my mind was somewhere else entirely. Or rather, with someone else.Rowanne. I could still feel her warmth from the night. I adjusted my cufflinks, the metallic click faint in the quiet room. I needed to leave soon. Still, something pulled at me, a need to check on her before I left. I walked back toward the bedroom. As I stepped inside, the sight of her stopped me. There she was, sprawled across the bed, still fast asleep. Her sandy brown hair was a mess, strands spilling across the pillow in soft waves, catching the morning light and glowing like spun gold. The red silk was pooling around her curves, barely covering her. One side had slipped down her shoulder, exposing her smooth skin, while the deep V of the robe revealed the swell of her cleavage. I couldn’t help the soft chuckle that escaped my lips. Sh
ROWANNE’S POV.The ride was suffocatingly quiet, except for the soft hum of the car engine. The silence seemed to press against my chest, making it hard to breathe. My head was still pounding with his words from earlier. I couldn’t escape. I felt trapped by the car, by his presence, by everything
ROWANNE’S POV.The next day, I stepped into my office, trying to steady myself after a restless night.“Your coffee, Mrs Carter. Good morning,” Rita greeted as she placed a cup on my desk.“Thank you, Rita. Have you had yours?” I asked, offering her a faint smile.Rita grinned, raising her own cup
ROWANNE'S POV.The morning crept in softly, but last night lingered, undeniably. Consciousness came slowly, and with it, so did every sensation Eli had left behind. His touch. His kiss. His words. They wrapped around me like a drug, refusing to let go. But most of all, there was the sharp sting be
ROWANNE’S POV.His hands grazed my back, leaving sparks in their wake. His touch was igniting something deep inside me that I didn’t know I had. “Lay down and spread your legs for me,” he commanded with his voice low and dripping with dominance. Heat rushed to my cheeks as his words sank in.
