His hands are on me, bending me over the railing. Half-exposed and gasping as he whispers in my ear. He asks me what I want. He knows what I need.
He’s a horrible man, my fiancé’s best man. He’s relentless with his crude words and cruel in the way he treats the people around him. When he looks at me, I can tell that he’s just undressing me with his eyes. I know what he wants from me.
I know it would be wrong, betraying a vow before I even make it. Betraying the man I love and giving myself to a man that I hate. I know that makes me horrible, but I don’t know if I can help myself.
And my fiancé did ask us to play nice. He asked us to make up and be friends and he sent us upstairs to find common ground. I don’t think this was what he had in mind though, his best man with his hands all over me pushing me to my limits and teasing me over the edge of them.
The guilt is nearly overwhelming. His hands on my body feel so good, his cruel words in my ear send a shiver of desire down my spine.
It’s so wrong but I can’t stop. It’s wrong and that’s what I love about it. It’s wrong and I know if I say yes tonight it won’t just be tonight.
His best man will come demand this from me again, and I don’t think I’ll ever be able to say no.
Excerpt
“I like betting,” he went on, “And I like winning. But the game is fun too, so let’s play a little game up here, you and I.”
My nerves kicked in. I knew it wasn’t going to be simple and I knew whatever game he had in mind, the odds would be stacked in his favor.
“The good news is, win or lose you get just what you want out of this game. Win or lose, I’ll leave you alone. I’ll agree to all of your demands. I’ll never speak to you again if you ask me to.”
I pushed back, “What do you get out of it then? What do you stand to gain?”
Gage shrugged, “The fun of the game.”
He grinned, and then he set out the rules.
“I’m going to take my cock out. I’m going to take my shirt off. I’m going to get naked and you’re going to watch. Then once I’m naked I’m going to have you kneel in front of me. I’m going to close the distance between us until my cock is right in front of your face. All you have to do is not touch me.
“If you do it ends there. If you can hold out and resist, it all ends right then and there and I’ll get dressed again and you can lay down the law and we’ll walk back downstairs and I’ll obey you.”
“And if I can’t?” I asked him, “If I can’t resist.”
“Then you do what I want. For an hour you belong to me. And afterwards, well you still get to make your rules.”
The way he was talking it was like it had all already been determined. He was talking like it was absolute, like there was no question that I wouldn’t be able to resist him.
I didn’t know whether he was right, honestly. My body felt like it was on a rollercoaster but I knew the only way off was through this obstacle course. In the end, I’d have to give in to get through.
There was no real choice.
“What if I say no to this?” I asked him, already knowing the answer.
“You’ll just be confirming what we both already know,” he said, smiling, “You’ll be telling both of us that the reason you said no is because you were worried that the second you saw my cock I’d have you screaming out yes. We both would know that you were saying no because you can’t control yourself. Because you want me.”
He wasn’t wrong. That little seed of doubt would fester in my mind and he’d seize it, becoming bolder in the process.
If what Gage said was right, if he had all of those women married to those men downstairs wrapped around his pinky finger, then that seed of doubt would turn me over to the dark side eventually. In a matter of days or a matter of weeks, I’d belong to him.
The only way to prove that I wasn’t was to face this challenge and stay strong. The only way was to resist temptation.
But when I nodded it was with the full awareness that it wasn’t the first time I was going to say yes. If this was a test of my strength, my willpower, my faithfulness then I’d already failed entirely.
I was going to submit to Gage. He was going to have me.
It was all just a matter of time.
