Surrender to Desire (5 page)

Chapter 5

A soft moan escaped Callie as she was gently coaxed awake in
the most delicious way. She didn’t open her eyes, but a smile spread across her
lips as she felt Blade’s finger dip inside her cleavage. The ultra soft caress
caused a wild shiver to make its way through her body, and a sharp tingle in
her nipples as they hardened. Suddenly his fingertip was circling her nipples
slowly, before traveling a leisurely path of fire down her body. She caught her
breath when he unsnapped and unzipped her jeans.

Once he parted the material over her belly she felt his hand
slip inside, between her jeans and her underwear. She gasped with anticipation.
Would he touch her pussy? She opened her eyes, and groaned. Blade was staring
down at her, his eyes glowing with a savage inner fire. Watching her carefully,
he cupped her mound. Eyes clinging, he leaned down and kissed Callie. She
opened to the pressure of his mouth eagerly, joining her tongue with his.

She arched her lower body against his hand, silently urging
him to touch her more intimately. As if something passed between them, Blade
slowly lifted the elastic at her inner leg and slipped his index finger beneath
the silk. Callie groaned wildly when he ended the torture and finally
penetrated her pussy.

Their kiss intensified, and Blade rolled, pinning Callie
beneath him. She hugged him to her, running her hands down his naked backside,
over his tight butt, down his strong thighs, and back up again. Her desire for
him overrode everything, and she ached with the need to pleasure him as he was
her. He groaned when she dug her nails into his ass, and pulled his hand out of
her pants.

“I want you naked,” he rasped, expertly undoing the front
clasp to her bra. He ran his palms over her breasts, peeling the bra away as he
went. Then replaced his hands with his lips, nipping, licking, and sucking her
flesh until Callie was twisting out of control. Once he had his fill of making
love to her swelling, highly sensitive flesh, his tongue made a path down her
ribs to her stomach, stopping when he came to her opened jeans.

He didn’t hesitate in pulling her jeans and panties down and
off, dropping them to the floor. Callie felt him kiss and lick his way back up
her trembling body, paying special attention to sensitive areas like the creases
behind her knees, inside her thighs, the lips to her pussy.
 
She cried out, the roughness of Blade’s palms
caressing her breasts just as stimulating as his mouth. He was slowly driving
her mad, and she didn’t know how much more she could stand without begging him
to end it.

“Blade,” Callie gasped, barely able to get his name out. “I
want you inside me.” She raised her hips in reaction to his mouth, which was
still hovering over her mound. His breath became hotter and then she felt the
stab of his tongue as it parted her pussy, gliding past her clit, labia, and
inside with maddening slowness. Moans of pleasure burst from her. She reached
down and buried her hands in his hair, holding him to her.

Any second now she was going to go off like fireworks. Every
stroke of his tongue against her buzzing clit threatened to be the last. Callie
held Blade’s head at the juncture of her thighs, praying he ended the torture,
frightened at the outcome. Was she having a heart attack? As she squirmed
against the bed, consumed with ecstasy, she felt her heart racing out of
control.

Just when Callie felt her body about to explode into a ball
of fire, Blade removed his mouth and kissed his way up her body until he
reached her lips. “Turn about is fair play.”

Callie’s instincts told her he was talking about the night
before. “I made you come.” There was a quiver in her voice.

“As I will you.”

The taste and scent of his mouth when he kissed her turned
Callie’s desire up another notch. But what almost sent her over the edge was the
feel of his hot cock at the entrance to her pussy. He continued to kiss her
roughly, but she was aware that he was reaching for something on the
nightstand, too. When he broke the kiss she watched him tear the condom wrapper
open, then remove the thin round circle.

“Help me, honey.”

He held his body away from her, giving Callie enough room to
reach down and roll the condom over his erection. She was barely done when
Blade growled and thrust forward, burying his cock inside her pussy all the
way.

“Ahhhh!” Blade groaned deeply.

Callie couldn’t control her outcry of pleasure. His cock was
huge but her body stretched easily, accommodating his girth and length as if
she’d been made for him. The feelings of ecstasy almost made her pass out.

He didn’t move. Just rested on top of Callie while she
explored the hard lines of his back, butt, and hips. He felt so good beneath
her hands, his size and hardness electrified her. She gasped in sweet agony
when his dick moved inside her body, seeming to swell even more, filling her so
completely.

So this is what it’s
like having a real man make love to me.
Realizing Blade was staring down at
her, Callie squeezed the muscles inside her pussy as hard as she could. The
breath hissed through his teeth. He quivered slightly, and she grinned at his
reaction. His expression revealed a man on the verge of losing control, and
that pleased her.

When he began to move his hips Callie closed her eyes and
arched into every thrust, moaning with contentment when his cock returned to
take care of the itch deep inside her. Excitement kept her blood hot as his
mouth and hands caressed over her breasts. She buried her hands in his hair as
he sucked and tugged at her nipples. His speed picked up as his own excitement
grew. She felt her orgasm building and knew it wouldn’t be long.

More than once Blade took his cock in his hand and rubbed
the mushroom shaped head over her clit, driving Callie wild beneath him until
she was gasping and moaning, and straining toward release. She climaxed hard,
crying out at the force as it seemed to take control of her whole body and
soul. Blade slammed his mouth down on hers, swallowing her passionate sounds.
But there was no drowning out his deep guttural groans when he came, too.

“Fuck!” he rasped harshly against Callie’s shoulder, his
hips jerking uncontrollably as he emptied his balls.

“I thought we just did,” she teased, unable to lift her
voice above a whisper. She felt his smile against her neck when he turned his
head. “If you’re not sure maybe we should do it again.”

Blade laughed, and pulled back to meet her eyes. “You take a
lot out of a man.” He surprised Callie by kissing her. “I can’t seem to keep my
hands off you.”

“I’m not complaining, Blade. And in case you haven’t
noticed, I have the same problem.” She caressed his backside. A low moan
escaped her when his deflated cock slipped out of her, leaving her with a
feeling of emptiness.

He stared into her eyes for what seemed like forever, as if
searching for something. Then without warning he rolled from her to the edge of
the bed, and sat up. Callie decided it was time to vacate the room and give him
some space. It was almost breakfast time. She rose to her feet and picked up
her jeans and bra from the floor at the foot of the bed.

“I think it’s time I fix you some breakfast.”

She started to walk past Blade, surprised when his hand shot
out and he grabbed her arm. The next thing Callie knew he was pulling her
toward him, where he still sat on the edge of the bed. She kept her clothes
between them.

“You better make extra. I’m starved.”

“You should be, you haven’t eaten in twenty-four hours. Are
you working today?”

He nodded. “I don’t know what you did last night but it did
the trick.” He pulled Callie into the cradle of his naked thighs. Her pulse jumped.
“You must be a witch.” Reaching up, he wrapped his hand around the back of her
neck and pulled her down for a kiss.

Callie moaned and dropped her clothes. She could kiss Blade
all day. She leaned into him, until she was flush against his loins. A wild
emotion fluttered in her belly when she felt his cock turning hard. He kissed
her long and sensuously, until she was weak in the knees and there was a
flutter in her chest. She could feel the juices of her renewed desire running
down the inside of her thighs. Blade’s hand fell to her breast, caressing her
achy flesh until the kiss ended.

His hot gaze fell to her breasts. “Damn, lady.” His thumb
played with her nipple. “You better leave before I toss you back onto the bed
and fuck the hell out of you again.”

Oh! Callie felt a light tingling between her legs. His words
and the erotic image they conjured up left her feeling hot and breathless. She
was eager for another round but didn’t want to come off as being too slutty.
She dragged up a smile from somewhere inside and nodded. He scooped up her
clothes, and she took them and walked with quiet dignity from his room, very
much aware that his gaze was following her.

****

Callie was just finishing up the breakfast dishes when there
was a brief knock on the kitchen door, and then Marissa was walking in. They
exchanged smiles and good mornings before Marissa got right to the point.

“Have you heard from Val?” She sat down at the table.

“No, why?” Callie put a fresh pot of coffee on, and sat down
next to Marissa. “Please give me some good news if it’s about Donald.”

“I wish I could, honey. Val told me he’s gone.”

“Gone where?”

“She doesn’t know. Her contact said he hasn’t been at his
apartment for a couple days. Nor have they seen his car around. So they checked
at his job and they said he took a leave of absence to take care of a family
situation.”

Callie shook her head, a sick feeling in her stomach.
“There’s no way he can trace me here. I was extra careful this time. And even
if he does, what’s he going to do? He can’t force me to go with him.” She got
up to pour them each a cup of coffee. “Sugar and creamer?”

“Please. And make mine half a cup. I have to watch my
caffeine intake.”

Callie put the sugar and creamer on the table, and then
retrieved the cups she’d fixed for them. Her gaze met Marissa’s. “I don’t know
why he’s being so persistent. He didn’t treat me all that great when we were
together.”

“Some people are like that. He probably benefited from your
relationship more than you did and doesn’t want to lose that.” She took a sip
of her coffee. “I think you should tell Blade, just in case Donald does show up
here. By the way, how is it going so far?”

Callie felt a telling heat run up her neck and into her face
and averted Marissa’s gaze. She’d never been good at hiding the truth, and felt
like there was a stamp on her forehead that proclaimed the new housekeeper
hadn’t wasted any time in jumping into her employer’s bed. But she would never
have done that if Blade hadn’t made the first move, and she hadn’t been so
attracted to him.

“Callie?” It was obvious she’d remained quiet too long. “Is
something wrong? I know Blade can be quiet and moody sometimes. Especially when
he has one of his headaches.”

Callie took a quick sip of coffee, surprised to see her hand
was shaking when she pulled the cup away from her lips. “No, everything is
good. I, ah, managed to stop a migraine in its tracks last night, using my
grandmother’s remedy and, um, some things I’d read once.”

“Really?” Marissa gave her a long look.

Callie forced a smile.
Why
do I feel like I’m so transparent? Because I am!
She’d been told she’d make
a terrible poker player. But she was proud of herself for returning Marissa’s
gaze with a nonchalance she was far from feeling.

“What did you do?”

I gave him a blowjob.
Callie
knew she was blushing. Just thinking about Blade’s big cock and how she’d
sucked him off made her squirm in her seat. There was no way she was going to
admit that to Marissa. And there was no way she could guess the truth either.

She shrugged. “Just some things I’d read. I had some
lavender oil and, ah…” Why was Marissa looking at her so funny?

Marissa’s gaze was moving down Callie’s body. She tilted her
head as if in contemplation. Then the light of dawning filled her curious eyes
and Callie’s heart sank.

“Did you two?”

Have the best sex
she’d ever had? Why yes!
“What?” She wasn’t going to admit to anything.

“Look, I’ve known the Evans brothers for three years. And if
they have one thing in common, besides their looks, it’s that they are highly
sexual animals.” Marissa laughed at her description. “Blade’s been cooped up on
this ranch for months—”

“Are you saying I’m just a convenient outlet?”

“No! Not at all.” Marissa was quick to assure her. “The
Evans brothers are very particular in their choice of women. I’ve seen Blade
surrounded by women at functions before and they didn’t seem to interest him at
all. And he wouldn’t use a woman just for sex.”

Callie didn’t think so either. She thought about what
Marissa had said for a moment. It was true that she and Blade had felt a
connection right from the start, a spark that had ignited into a couple of hot
encounters between them. Maybe their circumstances of being isolated the last
few months played a part in their rapid attraction for each other.

Marissa reached for Callie’s hand. “I shouldn’t have asked
you such a personal question. What you and Blade do is none of my business.”
She drew her hand back to her coffee cup.

“No, it’s okay, Marissa. I feel like we’ve been friends a
long time.”

“Probably because of our connection with Val,” Marissa
smiled. “And I feel the same way.”

“How long have you known Val?” Callie asked.

“Val and I go way back. Since middle school, and we’ve been
best friends ever since. What about you, when did you two meet?”

Callie thought back to her first day working in Val’s law
offices. “First day on the job, as her assistant, about five years ago. I had
very little experience, but she was willing to work with me.”
