Rachel’s eyes widened. He was kissing her? Did he know he was kissing her? Since he wouldn’t let her kiss him she decided he must not like it or maybe he had a story behind kissing that made the act unbearable.
But that was a shame because his kisses were lovely, delicious, and consuming. His hand behind her head pressed her closer as he opened his mouth over hers, sucking, nibbling as if he was testing the waters in one moment. In the next moment, he was demanding entry into her mouth. Rachel didn’t deny him. She parted her lips to grant him access to the soft warmth of her mouth and he explored. His tongue dabbed against hers, and when he moved his mouth to her chin and neck he was breathing heavily. Below his hands were making their way up her thighs again until he was close enough to remove the vibrator. Rachel shuddered.When he kissed her forehead more tears leaked out.“Why won’t you let me go?”His lips moved to her hair then back to hThrilled and somewhat scared Rachel rose higher and opened her mouth over his cock but her lips couldn’t get past the blunt head and his cock seemed to swell and harden more with every passing second. Her heart was a heavy rock in her chest as it beat a steady tattoo against her ribcage. She bounced his cock in her hands to stall the moment when she would have to take him in again. Nate’s hand came to rest on her head. She looked up at him. His lips held a mocking smile that made her heart drop. She was almost like a virgin to him and for the millionth time, she realized she didn’t really know what happened between a man and woman beside the usual stuff. How far did Vera have to go with him? “Relax your throat and breath,” Nate instructed. She nodded. Flexing her throat to take him she opened her mouth again and this time it was a little easier. His cock nudge the back of her throat and she almost gagged. Pulling it out of her mouth she swallowed the saltiness of his flesh her brea
She couldn’t stifle the moan, it would kill her if she did. Nate lifted his head to look up at her. It was so intimate seeing him there with her legs open for him while his eyes held hers. She waited for him to resume what he was doing but he simply watched her until she began to feel too open and uncomfortable.“Do you know you’re very awkward?” He asked out of the blue.A shy smile touched her lips. Above her head, the leather straps pulled her flesh because she strained against them in anticipation. “You would be awkward if you were tied up in a bed with your vagina open for perusal.”“You never did have a filter even on your show.” He chuckled. “Let’s see what you can do with your hands.” He reached up and untied one of her hands. She barely had time to wring the wrist to get blood flowing in them when he caught it and brought it to the junction of her thighs where she was creaming. “Have you ever touched yourself?”She licked her lips. Excitement made her heart flutter in her che
But that evening as she dressed Nate came up behind her to clip a diamond pendant to accompany the Emilio Pucci kaleidoscope, a white turtleneck, and a white jacket that she wore. She really had splurged on her trip to Lacy’s. It pleased Nate.Her hair was coiled on her head into a pile of falling curls.Nate looked at her through the mirror, his eyes watching her face. “Vera needed money for her business and I helped.”She frowned."I am telling you because you asked and I don't want you to have any wrong impressions."She smiled and nodded. “But she got a quarter of your billions after the divorce didn’t she?”“Failed ventures. Anyways I didn’t want you to think otherwise tonight.” He withdrew and turned her around. “You look beautiful.”On impulse, she moved forward but he withdrew. He was back to his no-kissing rule.With his hand on her face, he said, “I wish you good luck with your freelancing tonight. Larry will be with us tonight.”She missed the ‘us’ in his comment so she gav
“You look even better in person than on TV,” her tone was as patronizing as they come and Rachel immediately knew she was up to something.But the woman was so gorgeous, her Mongolian features were sharp and beautiful. Her slanted eyeliner and smoky shadow gave her a sophisticated look as did the plunged neck of her tight red dress. Her hair was cut in a sharp blunt style. Just as Rachel's eyes were accessing her, Vera’s eyes were accessing her too.“You are not his usual type.”“Excuse me?” Rachel asked aghast at the woman’s bluntness, her voice was firm with indignation.Vera walked to her side and placed one perfectly manicured hand on the sink. She stared at Rachel through the mirror, her red lips tilted up. “You don’t know Nate’s type? He wouldn’t normally go for the girls with the big mouths, he loves his girls obedient, silent, and a little foolish.”“I am guessing it wasn't hard for you then?” Rachel shot back. During the divorce she was on Vera’s side 100% but that Vera wasn
Away from the ocean, the wind was cool and lovely but right in front of the beach that fed from the ocean, below the cliff, the wind was salty and vicious, blowing her hair out of the tight coils. Her jacket bellowed in the wind, the cold was biting and terrible but she didn’t care. Once again she couldn’t help but think that some force was conspiring against her to ruin her life.She was crying softly but she barely noticed. All she could think of was how low her life had become. Since the beginning of this downfall to hell she never cried once but tonight she couldn’t help it. Vera’s words were cruel because she not just called her out on her hypocrisy, she had also hit where it hurt the most – the fact that without someone as powerful as Nate she couldn’t get her footing in society anymore.Maybe that was why she was crying because she knew she had reduced herself to nothing but a whore. The very thing she avoided on her way up was what she was doing out of necessity. She considere
They agreed not to talk about their secrets anymore. Rachel wasn’t satisfied but it was the best she could do, if the man wouldn’t talk she would make use of her skills, she was Rachel Rivers after all. He had said he didn’t want her snooping around in the wrong place but in her line of business, there was no such thing as a wrong place in seeking information. Day 2 of the fashion week went by, she was able to submit a couple of articles to Larry and when subsequent nights rolled by with more designs out on display she noted everything down with a vengeance. Nate was called away on business on the third day and he left her in the hotel leaving her with the limo and ames to defend her if needed. He didn’t leave without a promise, “When you come back to Gem Hills I’ll show you the room.” “The room?” she had frowned. He simply flashed an enigmatic smile before walking off into the waiting car that was supposed to take him to the airport and back to Gem Hills. She was excited, waiting f
Rachel chewed on the end of a strawberry. “Hmm, that’s a weighty allegation, Ben. And everyone in the office is behind this rumor?”“Well it started with Patricia, you know how chatty she can be but then again everyone at the office loves to gossip so maybe it’s just a rumor?”The Allen Brothers often fought with Rachel when they thought she went too far with her interviews. They weren’t exactly the most upstanding citizens in the state but in Rachel’s book they were good enough and sex trafficking wasn’t something they were capable of. Yet, it was something to look into to get back at them for replacing her so easily with Dana.The fashion show had been a success and Rachel was feeling very optimistic. She had gotten to interview a couple of pop singers, actresses, business moguls, and models, all of whom had attended dressed in elaborate clothes. Thanks to Larry and the camera he provided she was also able to do her amateur photography. She was her own camera crew and scriptwriter
When she woke up the next morning the sun was already warming the surface of the river. A cool breeze settled, blowing through the partially open windows. Rachel lay on the bed feeling at peace. The countryside was tranquil and relaxing. The air was clean. It was still as busy as main Gem Hills but far quieter and she found herself thinking about tomorrow and days after tomorrow when suddenly she caught herself. Shit, what am I thinking? she thought. As soon as this charade was over she would be out of his life and back into her busy life. That’s how it’s supposed to be! There was no tomorrow for her! At least not one with Nate involved.Maybe by then, she would have the divorce Jacob was still stalling to think about.With that thought in mind, she climbed out of the comfortable bed and went into the bathroom where she stood for almost an hour under the cold shower. It wasn’t a cold day still she needed the shock factor of the cold water to wake her up from her stupid reverie. When s
