Coming March 8th

Chapter Two

The water was hot enough to turn my skin a bright pink. I stood beneath the scalding spray simply letting my body soak in the heat, relaxing with my eyes closed. Cold air suddenly snaked in around my body, curling around my legs and waist.

With a gasp my eyes flipped open as David reached for me, his hands wrapping around my body as he moved under the spray alongside me.

“I thought you were on the phone?”

“Mmmhmmm, I was.”

David’s mouth found the sensitive spot beneath my ear and he pushed me completely beneath the cascade of water. I gasped, water racing up my nose and down my throat. My body struggled for air as David moved down over my body, his mouth sucking and biting against my skin.

My fingernails bit into his skin and he tugged me from beneath the water. His fingers pushed against the entrance to my body forcing me to open to him. He moved against my body, his fingers pressing inside making me tremble. Pleasure built inside me, spinning through my body faster and faster as he pushed me higher.

He had already worked me into a frenzy in the bedroom and it didn’t take much to push me over the edge now. As though sensing I was on the verge of release, David pulled back. He wrapped his arms around me, lifting me into his arms as though I weighed nothing at all. He pressed my back to the cold tile as he guided his hard length into my eager body.

I dug my fingers into his slick skin as I wrapped my legs around his body, holding myself against him. He pushed up into me and it was a moment of such exquisite pain and pleasure that I squirmed against him.

David’s lips brushed against my throat, pulling my body closer and closer to his until I had no idea where he ended and I began.

The moment he bottomed out inside me he paused, his body trembling with the effort it took to hold back. I could feel him inside me, my body stretching around him, welcoming him inside.

This was where I belonged, where he belonged.

The thought zipped through my mind and then was gone as David began to move. His hips pushed against mine, his body lifting me until his hard length was barely brushing against my entrance.

I fought him, my body desperate to reclaim the feeling of completion that he brought me. I wanted it, craved it and nothing less than that would satisfy me.

David’s thrust sent my head tumbling back, my breath leaving my body in a whoosh. Our bodies found a rhythm, deep and fast thrusts that sent the pleasure that built inside me fizzing through my veins.

One minute my body was wrapped around his, the feel of him sliding in and out of me making my breath catch. The next instant my orgasm washed over me. The moment seemed to freeze, holding me suspended in a constant rippling and pulsing ecstasy.

David’s shout of release came from very far away. The feeling of his warmth spread through me intensifying the pulses that ripped through me. We clung to each other, holding him was the only thing that told me I still had a body. As far as I was concerned I could have exploded into thousands of shimmering pulses of light.

It was the feel of the water splashing down across my breasts that finally brought me back from the floating bliss I had given myself over to. I shifted in David’s arms but he simply tightened his grip on me.

“I thought Aaron was going to keep you on the phone all night?”

“Not the phone. He wants me to go down to his offices and meet him.”

Placing my hands on David’s chest I pushed away from him so I could stare down into his face.

“Why does he want you down at the offices?”

“You remember what I told you about Hank?”

I nodded and chewed my lip. I knew David didn’t like Hank, he’d said he was dangerous, that whenever he turned up trouble followed. But from what I had seen of Hank he really didn’t seem that bad. The fact that he had helped Aaron save Heather gave him another check in my book but I trusted David and I’d stayed away.

“Yeah, but you didn’t really go into details, you just said he wasn’t to be trusted and to stay away from him.”

“Hank has Kirsty.”

“Kirsty?”

I shook my head as I pulled out of David’s grip and struggled to stand on legs made of jelly. We were in a tangle of limbs on the floor of the shower stall and as I stood I flicked off the water. David hopped easily to his feet catching me in his arms as I swayed unsteadily.

“Are you alright?”

The concern on his face made my heart catch in my chest. I swallowed back the sudden nausea that washed over me and nodded.

“I’m fine, who’s Kirsty?”

“Aaron’s secretary, you met her at one of the parties Aaron threw over Christmas.”

I had a vague recollection of a pretty bubbly girl with a bright smile.

“When you say Hank has her you don’t mean in the same way Jude had Heather do you?”

Fear crawled up my throat at the thought of someone as cruel as Jude targeting the people we cared about again.

David shrugged and it didn’t do anything to quell the fear I felt.

“Aaron hasn’t heard anything from either of them since the initial contact. The police haven’t found anything and at the moment it’s all at a standstill.”

“And what does he think you can do?”

I stepped out of the shower and grabbed the fluffy bathrobe from the hook it hung from inside the door. I didn’t mean to sound callous, and yet I honestly couldn’t see how Aaron holding a meeting over at his offices was going to help. Surely his time would have been better spent with Heather and the baby? She was probably panicked…

I shut my eyes and sucked in a deep breath the nausea rolling over me once more. It was something that was happening more and more and part of me couldn’t help but wonder if…

“Carrie, what’s wrong? Are you ill?”

David’s strong arms wrapped around my shoulders and he moved me into the bedroom. I smiled weakly and perched on the edge of the bed. How could I tell him that it was just my stupid body playing tricks one me? How did you explain something like that?

“I’m fine really. I just need to eat, it’s been a long day.”

David studied me, his eyes filled with concern as he lifted his hands and traced his fingers down over the side of my face.

“You would tell me if there was something wrong?”

The tone in his voice made me look up at him a little harder than I intended. He couldn’t possibly know that I had been to the doctor… Couldn’t possibly know what he had told me.

“Of course I would, David, you don’t have to worry.”

I swallowed hard. I hated lying but what else could I say? How could I tell him? In one fell swoop I would destroy all of his hopes and dreams for our future and I wasn’t willing to do that… Not until I was sure that what the doctor was saying was true.

“Good.”

He nodded and I caught a glimpse of the uncertain boy that lurked inside him. It was one of the reasons I had fallen in love with him. He was always so in control and his dominant attitude was breathtaking. But there was another side to David, a side that only I was privy to. And it was a side he had willingly shared with me.

“I’m going to head over to the office and see what sort of damage control Aaron has been doing on this situation. In the mean time get something to eat and don’t wait up for me, I can’t guarantee how late I’ll be.”

He leaned down and pressed his lips to mine. The kiss was soft and gentle and I wrapped my arms around his neck. I didn’t want him to go, I wanted him to stay with me. I wanted to climb into bed with him and continue what we had started in the shower.

The kiss deepened and David groaned as he crawled over me on the bed. He pulled away from me and stared down into my face. I could see the desire in his eyes and it made me shiver. It didn’t matter how often he took me, I was always craving more. He had said I was insatiable.

He sighed and dropped his head onto my chest.

“You make it almost impossible for me to get anything done you know?”

I giggled and David climbed off the bed. I sat up and watched him dress, the way he shrugged into his shirt, his muscles bunching and flexing as he moved. He was still the most handsome man I had ever laid eyes on.

David turned and caught me watching him, the smile that curved his lips was one that told me he knew exactly what I was thinking.

“I’ll leave two of the guys outside the apartment so you’re safe.”

“Why? I’m not in any danger, why do we have to keep up with so much security?”

He sighed and brushed his still damp hair back from his face.

“We’ve had this conversation at least a million times, Carrie, you’re not in any danger because we have security. Without it we don’t know what might happen and I’m not willing to take that chance.”

He was right of course but no matter how long I had the guards follow me I was positive I would never get used to it. I’d spent too many years without the fear and paranoia that came with the level of wealth and fame David had.

He stepped in against my body pulling me from my position on the bed. His hand cupped my cheek and I closed my eyes.

“You’re too precious to me to risk.” He leaned in a little closer and pressed his lips against my ear. “Deal with it.”

My eyes popped open and I stared up at him. I opened my mouth to fire back a smart answer of my own when I noticed the shadow of a smile that trembled on his lips.

His laugh was warm and it slipped down over my skin like warm chocolate.

“Please don’t be too late.”

The smile slid off his face and his expression turned serious and seductive.

“I won’t.”

His kiss was warm and feather light. One moment he held me in his arms and the next he was gone. I watched him stride through the apartment and disappear out into the hall. I waited for the sound of the door to slam before I moved to the closet and started to drag clothes out.

I had no idea how long he would be and I wanted to get to the pharmacy before he got back. I knew it was stupid but I had to know. Deep down I knew what the answer would be but a small part of me was hopeful that this test would give me a different result. The doctor had only said it would be unlikely and until he told me definitively then I would remain positive… I could only hope I wasn’t clinging to a dream that wasn’t meant for me.
