Breathless Series - (14 page)

As if in response, Alyssa felt her anal walls contract on empty air, already accustomed to being filled and now hungry to be filled again. “Yes please Sir,” Alyssa moaned against his face pressed close to hers. With those words, he grabbed hold of the base of his cock and drew it out of her dripping pussy. Then he aimed his broad tip right at her anus, which was equally soaked from her pussy juices dribbling down. Deep within, she felt the squish of her anal walls from the lube presented by the last plug. Finally, Alyssa knew she was ready.

By the time Lucas began to sink himself inch by inch inside her anus, Alyssa had no doubt as to the difference of having a real cock inside her compared to a toy. Flesh on flesh, heat and fire, body and soul. He drove in deep at long last, bottoming out inside her till she felt his balls resting against her flesh. He was staring deep into her eyes and Alyssa held his gaze as long as she could but could feel her eyes rolling back into her head. He started to move and suddenly the world was all white, bursting light. Alyssa felt his hand snake down between them to stroke her clit as he fucked her, and after that moment she couldn’t remember her own name if anyone asked her.
Lucas was fucking her ass
. Taking her like a prize all the more treasured for the length of time taken to win it. All these weeks prepping her unused secret hole for the sole purpose of being claimed by her Master who now drew her along for the ride, ensuring that she felt as much bliss as he did from the encounter. Lucas didn’t hold back his deep groans of pleasure and it was like music to her ears as she danced upon the flames with him.
So full, so tight, so much
. She could have died happy at that moment.

If there was any pain, she sure as heck didn’t feel it. She might be walking with a funny gait tomorrow but it would be worth it. It amazed her that she’d never tried this before, and now it was lifting her into perfect subspace. Lucas kept a hand massaging her clit and pussy while he fucked hard into her ass, sometimes bending to snatch a nipple in his mouth, or kiss her lips or forehead as his hips moved like a piston.

It was countless minutes later before she could feel the speed of his thrusts start to blur into each other, making her anal walls crackle from the thrilling friction. His thumb brushed harder on her clit at the same time, and it was like the ultimate signal, but Alyssa found herself looking up at him pleadingly as if to make sure. She’d already cum once without his command and even with the wildfire raging around her, she wanted to do things right this time.

Trembling violently, she stared into his face drawn taut with his own last hold on control. Alyssa heard his hoarse words penetrating through the ringing in her ears. “Yes. Now,” he said, and Alyssa was subsumed by the agony of bliss, her whole body compacted in one matchbox of ecstasy as around her, the world began magnified, colossal. Suddenly she felt like she was lost in a room in Wonderland, shrinking to nothing for a moment and then springing up, supersize, as her orgasm burgeoned within her.

Lucas wasn’t far behind, his cock expanding her already assaulted anal walls to its limits as he swelled and then spurted his cum deep in her anus. Alyssa felt flooded, replete, and whole as her Master’s seed brimmed within her rear hole. An intense radiance of fulfillment washed over her shivering body and Alyssa turned her face to Lucas as he aimed for her mouth, kissing her tenderly.

Alyssa wasn’t thinking, only feeling. She moaned against his mouth, “I love you.” And it was clear, plain and directly from the heart. She didn’t even get the chance to regret it a second later because her head fell to the side as she spiraled down to a warm, dark and blissful place.

Chapter Three

Falling for Lucas Edge had been the ultimate, unofficial no-no in their whole ‘arrangement’.

Nowhere was it ever hinted at that romance had anything to do with what they shared. And yet, silly female that she was, it had taken little or nothing to get Alyssa falling head over heels for the man.

She was entirely to blame
, she knew this. Lucas had given her no encouragement in terms of hoping things could mean more than the physical. This was no romantic ‘courtship’ and he’d spelled it out from day one.
I want a submissive. I will treat you right, but this isn’t about dating. I don’t date.

Alyssa had drummed these notions in her head from day one. So where on earth had she derailed?

She still cringed a little when she remembered the exact moment she’d made the utmost blunder and said to Lucas, “I love you.” At that moment, she’d felt nothing but exhilaration and contentment. Those three words had come from the heart and deep inside her, she knew she’d never wish to take them back.

She could remember him kissing her forehead warmly, and whispering in her ear in response, “My sweet little pet.” It wasn’t the return declaration of love she’d have wanted, but those tender words warmed her nonetheless.

But over the days and weeks that followed, secretly Alyssa had panicked. What if he decided it was over now that she’d obviously become emotionally involved?

She’d so wanted him to feel she was different from all those women who might have tried to tie him down. She’d be a fool to ask for more, she knew. So long as he stayed faithful and gave her the respect and regard she deserved, then Alyssa had told herself she could desire nothing more – for now.

And yet each day as the weeks passed she woke up and told herself that it was time to walk away. She was getting too attached to him, just like she’d feared. But every time she saw him again, her resolve melted. She could never be the one to leave, she knew that now. She was bound to him, in more ways than one and there was nothing to do but cherish every moment and hope against hope that someday, he’d see how much they could share beyond just the sex games.

In the meantime, the delivery date for the contracted series was drawing nearer and Alyssa was glad that she had a lot to show for the time she’d spent working on the manuscript. Just because she was sleeping with the publisher, so to speak, didn’t mean Alyssa had any intention of making excuses or slouching. There was already a massive promotion and advertising campaign being planned, while the book cover approval as well as options for some subsequent work was already under way.

Life would have felt perfect; she’d landed a mega book deal and was well on her way to completing it satisfactorily – and she had a wonderful man in her life. It just so happened that he wasn’t a man she could exactly claim because the truth remained he’d never really spelled it out past the Dom/sub part.  Which meant, basically, that her perfect bubble could end in just a snap of the fingers.

Alyssa didn’t know how much such fears would ring through till merely a week after…

*

It was supposed to be a little celebratory lunch, just Alyssa and Pam to one of the finest restaurants the city boasted.

Alyssa would have wished more than anything for Lucas to be there but as usual, he was off on some business trip somewhere thousands of miles away. She dredged up a smile as her younger sister lifted up her wine glass in a toast.

“To my mega-talented older sister...you deserve the best darling and I hope all your wishes come true. Congratulations with the upcoming release of your next bestseller!” Pam said brightly to Alyssa as their glasses touched merrily.

Alyssa could sense some of the eyes in the room turn to them and saw looks of recognition on many faces. Her popularity had soared over the past months especially as she’d been seen more and more with Lucas. Despite the fact that he was the height of discretion, there was no helping the unwanted attention they got especially when they went out together. Alyssa had never been so recognizable as an author because only few people knew what she actually looked like. Now she was getting into the social columns for different reasons than her work as a writer. Being connected to Lucas as a love interest certainly got her noticed even if he’d never actually acknowledged her in any capacity except as an author signed to his publishing company.

For a few hours though, Alyssa decided to put her man troubles in the background and just relax, enjoy herself. She’d worked so hard day in and out in the past few months, working to complete her many commitments and now she just wanted to have fun.

After the delightful meal they were leaving the restaurant for the car that happened to be Pam’s, and not long after she was stopping in front of Alyssa’s house. “I can’t come up. I have some studying to do tonight though I’m sure I’ll spend the whole time mooning over Hank who had to leave for a conference today,” Pam said with a grin.

“Looks like we’ll both be missing our significant others tonight. Lucas is out of town too,” Alyssa murmured, and then caught her sister’s telling look. “What?”

“Nothing,” Pam finally said with a shrug. “Sometimes though I can’t help but worry about you and if you’re doing the right thing for you. I know you don’t like talking much about whatever it is you have with Lucas…”

Alyssa sighed deeply. “Pam, I know you feel protective of me but there’s no need. I’m an adult – and older than you need I remind you.” She smiled humorously to take out the sting of her words. “I know what I’m doing.”

“It’s not you I’m worried about. It’s him,” Pam said with a little frown on her pretty face. “I was there that night you first saw him. I know he seems like the perfect hero being a handsome billionaire and all…”

“That has nothing to do with how I feel about him,” Alyssa put in quickly, her face darkening.

“I know that, of course. But it still looks like you’re giving more than you’re getting. And in situations like that, a woman like you could get hurt. I’m so proud of you, sis and I just want you to be happy.”

“Right now being with Lucas makes me happy. Okay? And that’s all I could ask for,” she added firmly, before kissing her sister’s cheek. “Take care and thanks for dinner tonight.”

Alyssa waved as she watched her sister drive off a minute later. Then she walked up to her front door only to find a package waiting on the step.

She smiled to herself thinking it was a gift from Lucas. He was always having things delivered to her as surprise gifts especially when he was away on business. Some presents were expensive, even too much for her comfort and she mostly sent those back insisting she couldn’t possibly keep them. Others were thoughtful little whatnots that would be even more valuable for being something quirky and unexpected. She wondered what it could be this time.

But when she bent to pick up the package it seemed very light and flat. It didn’t say anything on the front, just her name and address. Curious, she carried it into the house with her.

She barely took time to shrug off her coat and enter the kitchen to brew some tea before ripping
open the package. She stared down in confusion at the magazine she now held in her hand. It was one of those popular gossip sheets that she never bothered to read. It had the usual headlines about fashion and sex tips, plus of course torrid headlines about who was caught doing what with whom.

Frowning, she scanned the cover and was wondering why anyone would send her a copy of this, when she saw a caption that had Lucas’ name on it followed by a photo of what looked like Lucas and another woman seated close together on some kind of deck while there were mountains in the background.
Lucas Edge and Sara Forbes back on? Caught enjoying romantic get together in Aspen. Juicy details inside!

What?
Alyssa blinked, sure she was seeing things. But by the time she opened the magazine to the page with the story, she soon realized she wasn’t imagining any of it. There were many other pictures; Lucas and Sara having dinner in a fancy-looking restaurant, or relaxing outside on the courtyard of a magnificent looking house with the surrounding looking like something from a magical Christmas card.

“Gorgeously mysterious billionaire spends quality time relaxing with former fiancée Sara as both seem to be working on rekindling their romance. Are the wedding bells back on?”

Alyssa almost didn’t want to keep reading. The pictures alone said it all. But morbidly, she couldn’t seem to stop herself and her eyes flew over the words describing how Lucas was photographed on a short trip in Aspen last week where he spent time with his ex Sara who stayed with him at his luxurious ranch home just within the slopes of Red Mountain. The sources claim the couple spent four days together in what looked like a bid to revive their long-term relationship that ended after a six-month engagement.

The speculations continued about what could have drawn them apart as both Sara’s father and Lucas also happen to be business associates and the break-up affected that angle as well. But now that both moguls recently went into a new international business deal, looked like the romance between the couple was also getting a new lease on life.

Alyssa was shaking her head in disbelief, and was shocked to see the piece end with some comments about Lucas’ recent involvement with the ‘popular’ romance author Alyssa Fox as obviously being just a fling that was certainly going nowhere especially with Sara back in his life.

The magazine was clutched in Alyssa’s hands for a long time before she realized she’d stopped reading and was just staring at the words. Finally, she flung the magazine aside and buried her throbbing head in her hands. So many things were running through her mind, like how the hell could this be happening and who on earth could have sent her the magazine? It all felt so crazy and weird but most of all, it felt really hurtful. Seeing Lucas like that, with the ex he never talked about, was very painful. She wondered how she could never have seen this coming; all those week-long trips of his on business and the fact that he never really let her get that close to him enough to know the real Lucas. Had she meant nothing to him at all?
