They Thought I Was Out Cold, So I Let All Four Keep Going novel · Chapter 2 of 24

Chapter 2: Only Tobias

Alone in the dark, Tobias puts his mouth on her and she bites back every sound; at breakfast Felix slides the buy-out offer across the table.

Tobias's palm lay flat on my stomach and did not move.

I kept my breathing slow and even.

"Stefan was wrong," he said, very low. "You know exactly what you like."

I kept my eyes shut.

He said it to a woman he believed was unconscious, so I decided it was a confession.

His fingers hooked into my underwear at the hips.

The cotton slid down my thighs, past my knees, and off.

Cold air touched me where I was wet, and then his hands opened my legs.

He pushed my knees wide and held them there with his forearms.

"Three days I've watched you walk around this house," he said. "Three days of pretending I didn't see."

His breath was already on the inside of my thigh.

Then his mouth closed over my clit.

My whole body wanted to arch off the mattress.

I clamped my teeth into my bottom lip and stayed flat.

His tongue was slow and flat and wet, and it dragged from my entrance up to the swollen center of me and back down.

He did it again, and again, and each stroke got a little firmer.

I tasted blood where my lip had split.

He moaned into me, a low sound I felt through my skin.

He wasn't gentle about it.

He held my hips down with both hands when they began to rock, and he sucked at my clit until the room went white at the edges.

I fisted the quilt under my hands.

I told myself that sleeping women do not grab blankets, and I opened my fingers one at a time.

His tongue pushed inside me, and then he pulled it back and circled my clit again with the tip, quick and light.

I was close.

I was so close that my thighs began to shake against his shoulders.

"There she goes," he murmured against my skin.

He knew I was close, and I thought it was because he felt my thighs.

I braced for him to finish it.

He lifted his mouth away instead.

The cold air hit my wet skin, and a sound almost came out of my throat.

I swallowed it so hard that it hurt.

His hands left my knees.

I lay open and burning, and for a long moment he did nothing at all.

"Forgive me," Tobias said quietly. "I'm not sorry enough to stop."

He pulled the quilt up over my legs and tucked it under my hip.

He set something down on the nightstand with a small clink.

A glass of water, I realized later.

The bed lifted as he stood, and the door opened and closed.

I lay in the dark for a long time with my pulse beating between my legs.

I could have come in four strokes, and I had let him walk away.

Nobody had made me.

At some point I slept.

In the morning my underwear was folded on the chair, and my jeans were neatly zipped on the floor.

Someone had put them there in a way that said none of it had happened.

I put them on with shaking hands and went downstairs.

The kitchen was warm and smelled of coffee.

All four of them were at the table, and all four of them looked up.

"There she is," Stefan said, too brightly. "How's the head?"

"Fine," I said. "I think I fainted."

"The altitude," Felix said, without looking at me.

His glasses had slid down his nose and he did not push them back.

Jonas stared at my mouth.

"What did you do to your lip?" he asked.

"I bit it."

"In your sleep?"

"Apparently."

Tobias sat at the head of the table with his coffee and his newspaper.

He did not lift his eyes.

I sat down across from him, and he turned a page.

I had bled for him, and he read the weather forecast.

Felix pushed a sheet of paper across the table to my plate.

It was the offer again.

"I wanted to give you until Friday," he said. "We've had a call from the bank. They need your answer by noon today."

I looked down.

The date at the top had been crossed out and written over in a neat hand.

Today, noon.

Under the figure, somebody had added a line in pencil that was not in yesterday's copy.

Take the money and leave before the road opens.
