Page 66 of Sweet Wicked Vows
He must have made a joke, his voice silenced by the blood violently pumping in my ears, as Evelyn covered her mouth. Her cheeks flushed, and the corners of her eyes creased withlaughter.
That fucker was making her laugh.
“Let’s take a break,” I forced out, cutting Una off mid-sentence. “Be back in five.”
I abruptly ended the call before the others could speak and marched straight out of my office and into Evelyn’s.
“Are you trying to make me jealous?”
Evelyn startled, her eyes blinking the tiredness away. “What the hell are you talking about?”
“Smiling and laughing with thatbâtard. He is enthralled with you.”
I closed her office door and walked step by aching step across her office. She remained frozen in her seat, a questioning line between her brows, and her teeth skimming along her bottom lip.
“I was simply being friendly.” Her voice was low. “It’s not my fault he made me laugh. He’s quite funny, actually. Charming, even.”
Charming.
Let’s see how charming he was when I got my hands around his throat and took away any ability he had of ever making my wife laugh again.
“Thinking about it, he’s rather handsome,” Evelyn continued with a mischievous glint in her eyes, the tiredness long gone. “He’s a bit older than me, not my usual type. Then again, my taste for older men has changed somewhat.”
“Are you trying to bait me,ma douceur?” I stepped around her desk, grabbing the arms of her swivel chair. “Didn’t we already go over this at the jazz club?”
Her delicate throat bobbed as she batted her eyelashes “Did we?” The feigned sweetness in her voice could have rotted teeth. “I can’t remember.”
She was a delectable demon dressed in angel attire.
Ringing came from her open laptop, the others attempting to restart the meeting.
Neither of us moved a muscle.
“Then maybe I need to remind you.” I inched closer, the tip of her nose brushing mine. “Let’s see how funny he is when you’re trying not to scream.” Slowly, I lowered myself to my knees—Mon Dieu, I was on my fucking knees for her. Green eyes didn’t so much as blink when I gripped her bare knees and spread her legs apart. “Answer the call. If you come before the end of the meeting, I will bend you over this desk and punish those perfect ass-cheeks of yours until you’re begging me to stop.”
Her face beamed with the heat of a thousand suns. “Jaxon, you can’t be serious?”
“Deadly.”
Snaking up under her skirt, I ran one finger along the outside of her underwear, right along the seam of her lips. My mouth was salivating at the thought of getting to taste her. A patch of wetness stained her underwear when I moved my finger away and I quickly removed the thin piece of clothing concealing hermagnifiquecunt.
“Be a good girl and answer the call, Evelyn.”
She stalled, and for a brief moment, I feared I’d gone too far.
It was maddening how easily she made me act without rational thought.
The second she answered, my breath loosened, and I buried my face between her thighs. The aroma of her desire welcomed me, and if it were possible, I would have bottled the musky sweetness.
It was perfect.
Shewas perfect.
“Hello,” Evelyn exhaled unsteadily on the call. “Jaxon won’t be able to make it, he’s um… he’s on another call that can’t wait. So, you’re stuck with just me.”
“I am more than okay with that,” Jeremy’s overeager voice echoed in the distance.
I blocked it out, focusing on running my tongue along her seam in one drawn-out motion. She shuddered and gasped, masking it quickly with a cough.
