Seth's Cravings: An Endless Series: Book 2 (32 page)

     “You’re lucky there is a crowd of people here or you’d
be laid out at my mercy right now.” He growled splaying his hands over my back.
They were so large they seemed to encompass the entire area.

     Unable to help myself I rotated my hips faintly and his
rigid member rolled over my quaking belly. Right before my eyes closed in bliss
I noted his eyes closing as well and a groan rumbled from his throat. My head
fell forward onto his chest near his bare neck and all I could smell was his
strong heady male scent that went straight to my core. Rising up on my toes I
brushed my lips over his neck while inhaling at the same time.

     “
Bog
, you smell good.” I murmured taking a lick.

     A hand stabbed into my hair holding me immobile against
him. “Fuck, Nadia.” Seth groaned under his breath. “Are you trying to drive me
crazy?”

     I continued to nuzzle. “
Nyet
…why?” I asked
distracted by the warm flesh in my mouth.

     “I can only restrain myself so much, and if you keep
this up I’m going to take you to my truck and fuck you blind.” He grunted
slapping both hands on my ass and surging into me.

     My core clenched in yearning, but his words niggled at
me. They sounded tempting…We could fuck…in the truck…wait…where were we…Shit! I
pulled slightly away looking up at him in almost drunken shock.

     He stared down at me with hot stormy blue eyes. “What
are we doing?” He demanded roughly.

     “What do you mean?” I panted. Looking around dazedly I noticed
that we’d moved over against a wall out of the way, but some people had taken
note of what we’d been doing and were eyeing us keenly.

     Great! We’d become the floor show. 

     Hands shaped my butt causing another arrow of lust to
shoot through me before they traveled north to my lower back. Seth’s gaze
burned me as he inhaled deeply as though drawing in control. “We were on our
way to the poker table, right?” He looked at me inquiringly.

     It was like he was asking me if that’s what I really
wanted to do.
Was
that what I wanted to do? What else would I do? Oh
yeah…the truck, and the fu…Nope we couldn’t do that. I needed to do this poker
game.

     “Yes, the poker game.” I nodded briskly. Definitely the
poker game. My body ached for something entirely different though.

     A resigned and strained smile crossed his face.
“Right.” He agreed.

     Taking my hand again we continued our search and found
the game room a minute later. The rest of the player’s were already there and I
took my seat but not before telling Seth to skedaddle. “You know where I’ll
be.” I reminded him.

     He nodded, sized up the males at the table with
menacing scrutiny, and then kissed me firmly before departing, leaving me a
mass of aggravated jittery hormones. That wasn’t putting me in the right frame
of mind to focus.

     I introduced myself to everyone making sure to go heavy
on the accent. These were all new players. The host had gotten my number from a
friend of a friend who’d informed him I was someone worth playing against if he
wanted a challenge. Most of the five guys at the table were computer majors who
were brilliant in math and statistics. Unfortunately, they weren’t especially
good at reading tells or understanding human behavior. But I have to say they
were one of the better assemblages of players I’d come across. They were
serious players while still being entertaining in their own techno-gibberish way,
and I have to admit that some of their humor went right over my head.   

     Seth checked in on me five times during the game. Each
time he made certain to leave a lasting impression by clapping both hands on my
shoulders and kissing my cheek. The males at the table all stared at him in
trepidation each time he appeared. I wasn’t sure if it was his conduct or just
the personalities of the men, but I received no suggestive remarks. 

     The stakes of the game had been a thousand each and I
was up three thousand two-fifty after ninety minutes when I decided to call it
quits. “
Rebyata
, I’m sorry but I would like to check out zee rest of zee
party. Is everyone okay if I cash out now?” I watched everyone’s expression
carefully to make certain I wasn’t making anyone exceptionally irate by leaving
the game with most of the money. However, they all agreed they were ready to
halt the game as well, and no one was giving off a vibe that they wanted to
find me in a dark alley at the loss of their cash. Disgruntled yes, but not
incensed.       

     After receiving my winnings I made my way through the
house searching for Seth. I found him sitting on a couch, controller in hand,
fingers punching rhythmically as he stared intently at the screen in front of
him. Deciding not to interrupt him I scooted through the small crowd to find a spot
behind the couch.

     “The new tactical system is the shit.”

     “Seth, if you’re going to go for your next attack
helicopter use hard-line.”

     “Switch to thermo scope, dude. It’s so much better.”

      I watched Seth, Trick and another male hammer away on
their controllers as uniformed characters on the screen ran around shooting
everything in sight. Trick and the other guy were extremely vocal while they
played, yelling out directives and commentary. However, Seth played with quiet
focus making only a few smartass remarks when one of the other two guys got
shot or blown up.

     I had to hold back laughter a few times as the trash
talk flew. It was also humorous that Seth was flanked on either side by these
two lanky males while he took up a good portion of the couch in between them.

     After a few minutes my gaze wondered to the opposite
side of the room where another game was being played on a different television,
but only two people sat in front of this one. What caught my interest was the
girl playing the same. I wasn’t necessarily surprised that a girl was playing,
but the way she was dressed was interesting. She was wearing a deep purple wig with
heavy eye make-up and dark purple lipstick, but I could see that she was
attractive under the paint. She also had on a black t-shirt with some kind of
possible game motif, long black leggings, and a black and purple plaid
mini-skirt, topped off with chunky black boots.

     She was completely focused on the game in front of her
and by the smile on her face, and the frown on the guys, she appeared to be
winning. The girl looked hella-fascinating and all I could think was; Go Girl!

     “Hey, blondie, you interested in playing a game with
me?”

     I turned my head to see a tall attractive African
American male smiling at me. I grinned back at the eager look on his face, because
while I could see he appreciated my looks he wasn’t ogling me like I was a hunk
of beef in an open market. There was no way I was going to fault the guy for
hitting on me when he did it so inoffensively.

     “I’m all played out, but thanks for asking.” I said
trying to let him down gently.

     Disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he kept his
smile. “You sure? I’ve got
Destiny
.”

     That meant nothing to me. I was so not into video
games. I shook my head. “Sorry, I’m not really very good at video games; I’m
just waiting for this guy to get done.” I jerked my thumb behind me toward
Seth.

     The guy followed my finger and his eyes widened. “Oh,
okay, see yah.” The next second he slipped away through the crowd and was gone.

     Turning around I wasn’t surprised to see Seth watching
me. Sure, Seth was large, but just the back view of him wasn’t enough to send
the guy running like his ass was on fire.

     The other two guys on the couch continued to play
uncaring that Seth’s character had stalled on the screen. “I can’t take you
anywhere, can I?” He grunted.

     My brow rose at his tone. “I have no idea what you’re
talking about. This is a gamer party and he was just asking me to play.”

     He copied my brow move. “Uh huh,” was his reply. 

     I couldn’t hold back my grin and head shake at his
disgruntled tone.

     Seth stood dropping his controller on the couch. “I’m
out, Trick.”

     Trick glanced up briefly with a smile. “Later, my man.
See you in class.” His attention was then absorbed back into the game.

     Seth came around the couch and I met him. Wrapping his arms
around me from behind he guided me out of the house at the same time whispering
in my ear. “That guy wanted more than just to play a video game with you.”

     It was surprising how nice it was to lean on him and
feel his strength surround me. “Maybe, but he was sweet about it. Most guys who
hit on me are complete
osly
.” 

     His arms tightened and I felt his chest rumble against
me. “You thought he was sweet?”

     I could tell he was getting jealous and I couldn’t help
my small grin even as his touch and proximity made my blood heat. “It’s always
sweet when a guy is interested in you and they display it in a pleasant way. It
makes a girl feel special.”

     “You should feel special all the time then.” He
grunted.

     I caressed his hands on my waist. “I said when the guy
does it in a pleasant way. Many men seemed to have lost the ability to court a
woman. They think all they need to do is make a suggestive remark and she should
fall at his feet because he showed her some attention.”

     Seth snorted softly. “Not to make those guys seem any
less dickish, but a lot of girls let themselves be had for that price…and in no
way am I referring to you when I say that.” He revised toward the end giving me
a reassuring squeeze.

     I chuckled. “Thanks for recognizing that.”

     Seth clicked the unlock button when we reached his
truck helping me in and then faced me with an intent expression. “You are
definitely special and should expect serious wooing.”

     My lip twitched at his use of ‘wooing’. “I should,
should I? Is that what you’ve been doing, wooing me?” I watched him intently.
Seth hadn’t been hiding his desire for me, but he hadn’t specifically stated
what he expected from this thing happening between us. I very much wanted to
know what that was.

     “What do you think I’ve been doing?”

     “I haven’t thought about it too much.” I stated
truthfully.

     He frowned setting his hands on my thighs. “Why not?”

     I took a deep breath settling my nerves from his touch.
“I can’t deny that we have chemistry, but I think I’ve been unconsciously, or
maybe consciously, pushing other thoughts about us off to the side.”

     “Again, why?” He asked looking puzzled.

     I looked away from him feeling awkward. “I guess
thinking about ‘us’ made things too real and I wanted to avoid that. I felt we
had too many things going against us, in a way I still do, and I didn’t want to
build something between us that couldn’t develop, but…” I swallowed nervously
looking back at him. “I do want to try.”

     The wall holding back my emotions suddenly lowered and
I realized I wanted to try really, really badly. Seth made me feel things I’d
never felt before, things I didn’t even know existed. I wasn’t completely
comfortable with how I lost total control with him every time we kissed, and
wanting something for myself at this time seemed imprudent, but I want him. And
not just in the physical way. He called to everything inside of me.

     I watched Seth’s eyes flare as he leaned forward
placing his mouth gently on mine. Hard warm lips moved softly at first nipping
and licking almost leisurely before his tongue surged forward in exploration.
My hands flew up to his head, my fingers knotting in his hair to hold him to me
afraid he might pull away when all I wanted to do was devour him whole.

     Insentience, my legs spread and I move forward trapping
him between them as I tangled my tongue with his aggressively. It seemed like
forever since I’d last tasted him and it was like my body required its fix
before it would even think of letting go. 

     Seth growled, grasping my butt he slammed our pelvis’s
together making me gasp and cry out in excruciating delight at the feel of his
hard organ pressed tightly against my throbbing center. I gripped his hair harder
and clamped my legs tighter as my vagina muscles clenched desiring more.  

     “Fuuck…” Seth groaned gutturally squeezing my rear and
rubbing me on his groin. I panted in bliss. “If we were naked right now I’d be
riding us both to a mind blowing orgasm.”

     “You go for it man.”

     “Shit!” Seth ripped his mouth from mine breathing
heavily.

     Undaunted I trailed kisses down over his smooth jaw
down his neck. He smelled so damn good.

     “Nadia, we can’t do this here.” Seth’s hands messages
up my back.

     “Uhmm.” I was having a hard time paying attention to
anything else but his body and what he was making me feel.

     He clasped my face between his large paws making me
focus on his face and eyes that blazed down on me. “We are starting to attract
attention, sweetheart. I don’t like the idea of sharing what we have with
anyone else.”

     I frowned and blinked coming back to awareness. Looking
around I took note of where we were, and the two guys that were walking down
the sidewalk grinning at us.

     I leaned back into the cab of the truck out of their
view as my face flamed with embarrassment. “
Derr’mo
!” I muttered closing
my eyes. “Efery single time.”

     “Every single time, what?” Seth asked.

     A finger brushed over my bottom lip leaving tingles in
its wake. My eyes opened on his face and the tender look in his eyes made my
heart stutter in longing. “E…efery time you touch me it’s like a switch goes
off in my head making everyzing else disappear.”
