19 Chapter 19 Time To Play Game 2 Draven's POV 1 She accepted the bag with a puzzled look , clearly not expecting anything . I took the chance to fork a piece of cake and pressed it to her lips before she could ask questions . Caught off guard , she parted them and accepted the bite , chewing slowly while still staring at me in disbelief . I kept my eyes on her , slipped another piece into my own mouth , and nodded at the bag . She finally reached inside , pulled out a sleek black box , and cracked the lid open on her lap . Her jaw dropped when she caught sight of what was inside : a simple , delicate black lace thong . No words , just that stunned look . Before she could speak , I fed her another bite of cake , silencing whatever retort she had brewing . Her eyes widened even more , and this time , there was a flicker of something else : the thrill of challenge . I leaned back , thoroughly enjoying myself , licking a bit of frosting from my fork as she pulled the lace thong from the box . I was feeling smug , savoring my brazen challenge . This time she'd have to back down . Then she did something I did not expect . She stood . Walked to the low coffee table in front of me . Sat down . And began putting on the lingerie right in front of me . I choked . Was she serious ? This woman was going to slip on those panties , here , now ? My brain short - circuited , and Alaric let out a low , hungry growl in the back of my head . She held up the lace thong , examining it with a slight pout , as if not entirely satisfied . Perched on the coffee table , she slowly pushed her dress up from her knees to her waist , her pale hands trailing upward , forcing my gaze to follow . I swallowed hard at the sight before me . She deliberately faced me , spread her legs , and slipped on the thong . She moved slow , sensual , utterly aware of what she was doing . She stood and slid the dress back into place . I was completely undone . My fingers twitched against my thighs . My cock strained painfully against my pants , growing harder by the second . She straightened and looked at the obvious bulge in my pants with pure mischief in her eyes , proud of what she'd just done , as if she had just won the damn game . Not so fast . When she pulled out the black thigh - high stockings from the box and prepared to put them on , I raised my hand to stop her . " Now , now , Miss Bennett , " I said with a teasing lilt , " you're not going to be rude , are you ? I gave you a gift . The least you can do is show me how it looks ... maybe tell me if it fits the way I imagined ." 07-39 712 She narrowed her eyes but smiled like the devil . " Of course , Alpha , " she said sweetly , though I caught the hint of anger in her tone . She walked from the coffee table to where I sat on the couch , towering over me . Leaning forward , she pushed me back against the sofa with one hand . She lifted her dress , everything beneath it right in front of my face . Oh , Moon Goddess . She raised a brow and asked , " Well , Alpha ... do you like the way your little gift looks on me ? " I was too entranced to speak . She took a step back , standing before me. Using her hands to hold the dress just barely covering her hips , revealing the thong . And then , she began to turn slowly , nearly giving me a heart attack . She kept spinning , her ass almost brushing against my face . When she paused with her back to me , she threw a sultry glance over her shoulder ... and swayed her hips just enough to make my jaw clench . " Should I try on those black lace stockings and give you another show ? " she asked teasingly . I lost control , setting the cake aside as I pulled her down onto my lap . She startled , legs parting to fit perfectly against me , wrapping around my hips . Heat surged through me . I shifted beneath her , and she trembled . Alaric howled with satisfaction deep inside me . " Oh , Caroline , what am I going to do with you ? " I murmured , rubbing my nose against her hardened nipple pressed through the fabric , as if it was begging for my mouth . She was just as turned on as I was . I bit her nipple gently through the dress , drawing a soft moan from her that sent a thrill straight through me . Moving beneath her again , I bit the other nipple , her moans growing , trembling in my arms . This woman was dangerous - seductive , provocative , and utterly irresistible . She made me lose control in ways no one else ever had . Still clutching me tightly , she held on as I leaned back against the couch , never loosening my grip on her waist . Sliding my hand beneath her panties , I traced her folds and slid a finger inside . I needed to feel that she responded to me just as much as I did to her . Wet , hot , and tight . I withdrew my hand , sucking my finger slowly . " Mmm , Caroline , you're better than chocolate cake ." Her shocked gaze locked on me as I pulled her flush against my chest , capturing her lips in a kiss fueled by pure lust . When she melted into me , I went wild - tongue wrestling with hers , biting her lower lip before plunging back into that heated kiss . I gripped her tighter , grinding beneath her . Closer and closer to the edge , and judging by her loss of control , she wasn't far behind . Alaric demanded I claim her , mark her as mine , but I fought for dominance . Breathless , I broke the kiss and grabbed the cake , feeding her bite after bite while matching each with one of my own . Our eyes never left each other's , a charged , intimate exchange that went beyond desire . When the cake was gone , I noticed a smear of chocolate on her lips and didn't hesitate to lick it off , cleaning her swollen mouth with a lingering kiss at the corner . She was utterly surrendered , but I held back , controlling myself and Alaric . Helping her to her feet , I gently tugged down her dress , stepping in close and whispering in her ear , 07 39 2/3 " Next time , I want to eat that entire chocolate cake off your body . " 1 stepped back with a triumphant grin and headed to my desk , knowing I'd left Miss Provocative breathless and confused . But as Ryan had warned , I wasn't about to give her the satisfaction of an orgasm until she begged for it , and so far , she hadn't . Alaric grumbled his frustration but understood the game we were playing . " Miss Bennett , please share our notes with Kyle and schedule a confidential meeting with just Kyle , Ryan , Clara , and me . Make sure it's clear how sensitive this is . That's all for now ." I watched her storm out , slamming the door behind her . I'd won this round , but my body protested - a massive erection pulsed beneath my clothes while Alaric paced restlessly . I needed to deal with this . I hadn't felt this out of control since I was a newly shifted wolf . Half an hour later , Ryan sat across from me . " What the hell did you do to piss Caroline off like that ? When I walked in , she was beating the filing cabinet to pieces . If she'd shifted , the whole office would've been wrecked . " I chuckled . " She probably wanted to tear my throat out with her teeth , Ryan . " I told him everything . His jaw dropped . " Draven , that's insane , even for you . You were downright diabolical . But listen , as a friend - that kind of fury ? No Alpha can outrun a she- wolf's wrath when she's properly provoked ." " I know , Ryan . That's why I'm hiding in my office for the rest of the day , staying as far away from her as possible . Let her wolf cool down ." 3 Ryan laughed at my cowardice , especially coming from an Alpha , but I didn't care . Even the strongest know when it's time for a strategic retreat . 1 20 Chapter 20 Tease for Tease Discover our latest featured short drama reel. Watch now and enjoy the story!
