Grace was torn. They wanted to have this dialog, get it out within the open, however every part was so uncooked. She pressed her lips in opposition to his throat. “I’m glad if I used to be going to do that that it was with you.”

With that he relaxed a bit and circled his arms round her, holding her tighter. His lips grazed the highest of her head, lingering. “It is best to get some sleep.”

“Will you keep?”

There was a protracted pause earlier than he spoke. “Certain.”

They every took a flip within the rest room earlier than climbing into her mattress, this time beneath the covers. She puzzled if Alexander would put his boxer briefs again on, however he left them on the ground.

Grace rolled over on her aspect to face him. He observed. “Do I have to order you to fall asleep?” It was meant to be teasing, however she knew he was doing it to deflect. Why did males all the time must run away from emotions?

“No, Sir. I’ll fall asleep.”

When she didn’t transfer or shut her eyes, he raised an eyebrow at her in query. “However?”

“However I wished to ask you one thing first.”

He regarded cautious. “And what’s that?”

“Do you remorse our association? Having intercourse with me?”

“No,” he mentioned. “I don’t remorse our association.”

She didn’t miss that he’d solely actually answered half her query. “And intercourse?”

Alexander sighed and turned towards her. “It’s sophisticated. However no, I don’t remorse that both.”

“Why is it sophisticated?” She knew she was pushing and it shocked even her. Usually she wasn’t so courageous.

He regarded down the size of the mattress, after which at Grace. “Do you actually need to have this dialog right here? Now?”

Whereas she understood the awkwardness of their present place given the subject, she wanted to know. “Sure.” She pressed her lips collectively and met his gaze. “I feel we have to. Don’t you?”

Alexander searched her face for a protracted second after which nodded. “Perhaps we do.”

She fumbled beneath the covers till she discovered his hand and laced their fingers collectively. He’d been there for her so many occasions and it appeared as if he was struggling.

“It didn’t really feel proper to get pleasure from your physique,” he admitted.

Considering again to their first scene, after which the membership, issues started to make extra sense. “It was okay to present me pleasure however taking it for your self…”

“I felt responsible as hell.” He paused. “Nonetheless do.”

“Why?” He gave her a glance that mentioned he couldn’t consider she was asking that query, so she clarified. “I imply we talked about it and also you knew me transferring on, discovering one other Dom, was what Kurt wished. He could not have envisioned it might be you who could be my Dom, however I’ve to imagine he’d be okay with it. You have been his buddy. He revered you. Trusted you adequate to ship that letter to me.”

“Don’t you see that’s why I really feel so responsible?” He will need to have seen her confusion written plainly on her face. “Kurt trusted me. He trusted me to search out you and provide you with his letter. He didn’t count on me to start out fucking his spouse.”

If she hadn’t been so used to Kurt’s cursing, Alexander’s phrases would have bothered her. Because it was, Grace realized them for what they have been. “Is that what you’re doing? Fucking me?” Utilizing that phrase felt unusual. She may solely think about what it sounded wish to him. She by no means cursed.

He checked out her as if perhaps she’d misplaced her thoughts, giving they have been at present mendacity in her mattress, bare after doing precisely that. “Did you neglect concerning the final two hours?”

“That’s not what I imply.” She introduced their fingers up and studied the way in which they have been entwined collectively. “I do know what we have now isn’t regular or conventional, or no matter, however it’s extra than simply intercourse. You’re my Dom and my buddy.”

There was one thing else that flashed in his eyes, after which it was gone. It wasn’t fairly the identical as earlier than and it was gone earlier than she may analyze it. He scooted nearer, drawing their linked fingers as much as his mouth. “It doesn’t change the truth that what I need to do to you is something however pleasant.”

As he kissed a line down her arm, Grace’s eyes rolled again in her head and he or she forgot what she was going to say. “Alexander?”

He lunged ahead, pushing her onto her again, and pinned her to the mattress. The look in his eyes was heated and her physique reacted. “What do you name me whereas we’re on this mattress?”
