Chapter 5

Duke’s fingertips trail across my shoulder blade. I curl into him, savoring the warmth, the safety of his arms. Though my breathing has returned to normal, my heart still pulses like a kick drum. “Jesus, what was that?”

I can almost feel his smile, as though my questions, however naïve, amuse him. “The multiple orgasms, or the flogger?”

“Flogger--Is that what it’s called?”

His low, throaty chuckle does something to my insides. “I wouldn’t Google it,” he says. “It’s a bit of my own invention. An adapted whip of sorts.” He kisses the top of my head. “Did you like it?”

I run my hand over his chest, and down to his abdomen. Soft curls of hair thread through my fingertips. “Very much so.”

He blows out a breath. “Good. Just as long as it didn’t mar that perfect ass of yours.”

Maybe a little. My skin still burns from where the flogger swept across my ass, but it’s a dull pain, no more intense than the ache that pulses across my body and within the folds of my swollen pussy. Subtle reminders. As though could ever forget this evening. I turn my face into his chest and plant soft kisses along his flesh.

A low moan vibrates from his throat.

In one swift motion, he rolls me onto my side and tucks his arm around me, holding me tight against him.

I’m deep in the haze of lust, blissfully satisfied and content, but if Duke’s cock so much as twitches with interest, my body will obediently respond.

I shift so my buttocks press firmly up against his groin, aching to be as close to him as possible.

He holds me tighter. “I left work early. I don’t remember the last time I did that,” he says. “I couldn’t stop thinking about you. You’re so fucking sexy when you’re mad.”

I bury my face into the pillow and giggle. The words are exactly what I want—what I need—to hear. It’s like Duke is whispering straight through the protective shield around my heart and straight into my soul. And yet for some reason, I can’t give in to the fantasy, not fully. “I still don’t understand or agree with your decision about the MicroTracker, though.”

Duke shifts so he can roll over. I turn too, disappointed at the sudden disconnection. I shouldn’t have brought up business—it’s just, being here with Duke, even in such an intimate way, doesn’t make his decision an easier pill to swallow. If anything, it intensifies the need for an answer, a loose end that needs tying. I want a reason to justify it, some kind of rationale that will help me move on.

“Do you know how I became a billionaire, Hailey?” He tucks his hands under his head and turns toward me. There’s a kindness in his eyes that trips up my heart. I’ve heard this question before, more abruptly, but I get the sense his answer will be very different this time. He licks his lips. “I follow my gut. Maybe that doesn’t make sense…”

“It does,” I cut in.
