Greed: A Stepbrother Romance (3 page)

Chapter 4: The Kiss To Keep

I had no clue where Nick was going to take me, and it was a really long drive. As I stepped down, I saw it was a huge meadow of sorts. I would have bet all my money that there was no such place in the whole of New York City, but there I stood, right in front of a meadow, and it looked all kinds of beautiful.

We moved inside the park, and I followed him. He had a smile on his lips, and when he stopped, I saw the most breathtaking scenery all around me. There were endless flowers, and Nick kissed me fervently on my lips. I knew this was one man who was romantic as hell.

“Where are we, Nick? I have never been to this place before,” was all I could say as I found myself standing in the middle of the meadow. There was an infinite trail of lush green grass around me and I could hear the stream of water running somewhere nearby that made for a perfect symphony in the background.

“You don’t need to know that. Just close your eyes and imagine that you are somewhere away from the bustling crowd and traffic of the New York City. We have traveled in time, and you are not yourself anymore. Let your spirit be wild and do whatever you want to do, Lacie. It is just this moment, nothing else exists anymore.”

He was right. That place didn’t feel like New York City at all. It felt like we had traveled back in time, where no one except the two of us existed.

Nick took a blanket and placed it carefully on the ground. He also had a picnic basket, which looked both adorable and charming.

“What do you have here? I thought we already had brunch,” I said while I sat with him on the blanket. I opened the picnic basket and found a few munchies inside.

“This is nothing, just some snacks and muffins for us to eat,” he added.

He filled a wine glass with some exotic red wine he pulled from the basket. As I drank, it felt like I tasted a part of heaven in my mouth. I looked at the sky, and the stars shined brightly with their entire luster.

Nick looked at me, and his breathing was heavy. I knew what he was about to do at the next moment. I felt as if time stood still when he kept looking at me with his big green eyes. I saw my reflection in his eyes, and there was nothing else that I wanted to look at.

No rules of time or space existed between us anymore. As Nick’s lips touched mine, it felt like all my stress and disbelief vanished. There was absolutely nothing existing in the universe that could worry me. I felt his warm lips inside me and as his tongue touched mine, I closed my eyes. There was a thick cloud of darkness in front of me, but I could still see the whole wide world.

I felt Nick’s tongue pressing into my lips and inspecting my mouth. Our tongues made a perfect symphony, and it felt like we were creating art. We danced on the tongue of salvation and became immortals at that moment.

I was wearing my red strapless dress that had a zip closure at the back. I felt Nick’s warm hands unlocking the closure and letting me shine in my true colors. Before I could realize fully what was happening, he had undressed me and set my clothes aside. I unbuttoned his shirt and opened my eyes to see the marvelous beauty of the rugged man that was standing in front of me. Each and every muscle, every cut in his body was nothing but flawless. He looked like a Greek god who was ready to take me to Atlantis.

Nick knew what was coming, and he was all prepared for it. He kissed my lips and slowly pressed my neck. He massaged my back and placed his hands on my shoulders. Slowly he pressed with his warm hands, massaging my neck to make me feel relaxed. I could feel my senses getting calmer as he licked my neck and slowly reached my bosom. He pressed my breasts a little, as gently as he could, and gave a kiss on my left side, which made me shiver with passion.

I could sense an undying shiver of affection that crossed my spine and entered each and every cell of my being. It was as if Nick had already become a part of me. He let go of everything else that I was wearing, and I echoed him. There was not even a single ounce of cover on us. We both were there, entwined in each other, completely naked, without any trace of shame or remorse. We were unafraid to show our true colors to each other.

“You look so gorgeous, Lacie. You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen,” he whispered in my ear as I felt his fingers near the gap between my legs.

Our bodies twisted and turned, and it felt like we were dancing to a beautiful song that was being played somewhere in the background. We were covered with the blanket, and I could feel how warm his body was. He kissed my neck and across my breast. As he bit them gently, I moaned in pleasure. He sucked them gently, then again a little harder the next moment. I felt as if I would melt in his mouth as it felt so warm and real. I was going into a state of utmost pleasure and had no regrets.

I surrendered myself to Nick and let him do his magic. He was the master of it all, and as his white, muscular body held me tightly, I felt more precious than ever. He kept showing his love for me, for a few more minutes by bestowing kisses on every inch of my body. From my forehead to my breasts and from my navel to my wrists, he was present in each and every part of me–both inside and around me. Before I could take it all in, he became an integral part of my being.

I never thought that I could reach the pinnacle of my pleasure with such ecstasy, but it was then that he placed his tongue near my most sensitive part and licked the gap between my legs. I moaned out loud for the entire world to hear. My hands were engraved on his shoulders, and he soon placed them on the ground to let him do his magic without any distraction. He kept pressing his tongue inside me, making me ask for more. I wanted more than his tongue to be inside of me. He looked at me with his magical green eyes and knew what I was asking for.

After massaging and passionately treating my sensitive areas, I could feel him pressing himself inside of me. As he touched my sensitive spot, I swear, I entered into an entirely different world. It was an unknown territory, and I was eternally lost in it. My fingers crossed his as his fingers flawlessly filled the gaps between mine. He locked my mouth with his, and his masculinity entered inside me, making me feel more beautiful than ever. It felt surreal and there was a sweet pain that I could feel, but I didn’t want the pain to stop at all. Gradually, the pain was gone and all that was left was a beautiful feeling.

He kept pressing himself inside me, and, as he entirely entered into me, I moaned. He increased his pace, and, from his gradual touch, he became harder every time. He started squeezing my breasts and biting my neck as he kept pressing inside me at a fast pace. I felt the hardness in me and the rugged appeal that he imparted on me. We both were at the peak of our pleasure and came at the same moment.

There was a brief moment in time when it felt like we both were no longer living in two separate bodies. We were no longer a part of two different beings, and we became a single entity. As he came at the same moment as me, we felt relaxed and elated. Our souls levitated from the ground and crossed the distant stars. We took a trip of the entire universe and came back to where we lay our bodies down.

I opened my eyes and saw him breathing heavy, slow breaths on me. We both were breathing at the same pace, and smiled while looking at each other. He kissed me one more time before letting me go. I closed my eyes, as I wanted to register that moment in my consciousness. There was certainly no other place that I would rather be. I wanted to keep that kiss forever.

I didn’t want Nick to be like any of the other guys that I have dated in the past. I didn’t want that kiss to be our last. I didn’t want Nick to get dressed and ask me to leave. That would just break my heart in more pieces than it was originally made up of.

I was extremely thankful when he didn’t do either. He didn’t move, he didn’t ask me to get dressed or put some clothes on. Instead, he did exactly what I wanted him to do. He covered both of us with the blanket, as we kept looking at the stars. It was as if Nick could hear the words that weren’t even coming out of my mouth. He was able to comprehend my silence, and that was the best thing about it.

When I was with Nick, nothing else mattered. When we were making love, the thought of the orphanage or even my career didn’t cross my mind, but then I looked at the marvel of the universe that was there right in front of my eyes in the form of that big black sky, and I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about the kids.

Nick realized that something was up with me and wanted to help.

“What are you thinking, beautiful?”

I smiled as he called me that. I could listen to his husky voice all my life and never once get bored of it. The way he would call my name or would even look at me was something special and unique. There was certainly something about him that could make me strong and weak, both at the same time. He was both my strength and weakness, in the strange ways that I couldn’t comprehend.

“Ah! You know exactly what I am thinking about, Nick.” I knew that he was able to read my mind.

“You are thinking about the kids, the orphanage, and how you can save them,” he replied with a concerned tone. I didn’t say anything and let the moment pass. I wished that when I would go back to my apartment, I could move to a different world, where everyone would be happy. But I was not living in a world full of illusions anymore. It was my reality and I had to face it.

“I don’t know what to do, Nick. I don’t know how I can save these kids. Please help me!” It was the first time that I had asked Nick to help me in order to save those kids.

“I would love to help you, Lacie, but I can’t really think of anything. I can call a few people and ask, but I have never been in a situation like this, and I don’t know what is right or wrong. But I need you to know that it doesn’t matter what you do or how you do it; I will be there for you. I will support you and will be by your side, no matter what.” he said while looking at me. I didn’t say anything at all, as I wanted to capture that moment forever.

We kept looking at each other, letting time pass us by until we realized that the moment was gone.

“Thank you, Nick. I am eternally grateful to have you by my side. I don’t know what I would have done without you!” I confessed him the truth and meant each and every word of it.

Chapter 5: The Deepening Of The Bond

A week passed away in a flurry, and I had been falling deeper in love with      Nick…because the way I felt about him couldn't be mistaken for anything but love. We had been spending a lot of time together, and life felt really great. There were a lot of days when I woke up and felt like I had been living a dream. There was an inner voice that warned me not to get too happy, because I had always known that some things are just too good to be real.

However, the times spent with Nick made me feel like the best kind of beautiful. It felt like he had known me for ages. We spent a lot of nights together, and I had gone on several dates with him, yet the magic hadn’t faded. I wondered if we would last forever, because my idea of a perfect life always had a man in it.

Meanwhile, I couldn’t really do much with the orphanage. Sometimes, when I was alone in my bed in the middle of the night, I could feel my heart breaking a little. I wanted to help, make a difference, but I really didn’t know from where to begin. I was quick to promise to Les and Adam that I would sort the mess out, but as the days kept passing, I grew unsure of myself.

As I kept tossing on the bed, I thought of trying harder for the orphanage, because there was no way I would let them suffer.

I quickly called up Nick and explained my plan to him.

“Nick, you’ve got a lot of connections, right?”

“Yes, babe. What is it that you need?”

“I was wondering if I could talk to the CEO of the firm who is looking to demolish the orphanage. Do you think you could arrange a meeting?”

“What would you do at the meeting?”

I wanted to explain the whole thing to him. 

“From what I’ve heard from Les, he is a terrible guy who is known to be a business mercenary. I have heard that he is ruthless and despite Les’s numerous attempts, he didn’t flinch before sending her a notice. I hate such assholes but I would still like to give it a try.”

Nick didn’t say a word, and the silence was too long. “Everything okay, Nick?”

“Yeah,” he fumbled. “I will try, Lacie. But you know, I was thinking of something else.”

“Like what? Do you have another plan in mind?”

“Yes, honey. I do.”

“Tell me about it, Nick.”

“I was thinking of making every dark fantasy of yours come to life. I was thinking of what it would feel like to kiss those luscious lips of yours, and I was thinking of how much I would like to undress you and make love to every part of you. I was thinking of—”

I cut him off mid-sentence and couldn’t help but smile. “You’re always obsessed with sex.”

“I swear it’s because of you. You bring out the vulgarity in me.”

“So, sex is vulgar?”

“Of course not, honey. I was just trying to be a tease.”

“Come over, and I will show you exactly what teasing is all about.”

Nick agreed to come over, and I couldn’t help but giggle like a teenage girl. There was something really passionate about making love to Nick.

In a week, I had seen a lot of layers of him, and I had realized that he wasn’t flawless and perfect. He had his own flaws, but this is what made someone special. When you can see someone’s major flaw and still be perfectly fine with it, then you need to realize that your heart certainly feels something.

I opened my wardrobe and took out my orange sheer night robe. I decided to turn him on and un-slid the hook of my bra and let go of my panties. I was wearing absolutely nothing underneath the night robe and wickedly smiled at myself. I used my cocoa shampoo to wash my hair and even pumped it.

It was twenty minutes later when Nick knocked on my door. As I opened it, I saw him look at me with his lust-filled eyes. He could see through the fabric, and I saw how he wanted to do it right there against the door itself. I laughed and pulled him inside. He was wearing skin-tight jeans with his red tee and still looked effortlessly sexy.

He had brought in wine and my favorite dessert—red velvet cupcakes. I slowly picked one of the cupcakes and gave him a seductive glance. I didn’t even get the time to finish another bite when he pinned me to the counter and kissed me hot and hard.

“Lacie, I am going to tear you apart and make you come right on this table.”

“Is that a request, an order, or a challenge?” I asked.

He mumbled something incoherently as he tugged at the hem of my night robe with his teeth, and then, with the sheer dexterity of his hands, he took off the fabric in less than a second. I stood at my kitchen counter wearing absolutely nothing, and Nick gave me a hungry look. I tried stealing another cupcake, but he was quick to pick it from my hands and pin it between us.

He slowly took his time licking the frosting from the top of my nipples, and the way his tongue licked them made me moan in delight. He wanted to turn me on just by the mere touch of his tongue, and so he did nothing but roll his tongue over and over again on my nipples that had become hard as stone with the pressure.

“Why are they so hard already, Lacie?” he teased.

“Oh, Nick. Damn, Nick!” I tried to say something, but I was very incoherent and could hardly speak at all.

Nick was definitely enjoying the passionate dance of my nipples, and so he kept licking them.

“Would you mind me taking a bite?” he asked and put his teeth on my pink nipples and licked every single drop of frosting off. “Let us try another cupcake, Lacie?” he said, and then plastered a whole cupcake over my breast all over again.

Never before had chocolate sex and the thrill of the foreplay pleased me. He pressed his hard chest against my soft breasts, and the cupcake slowly melted in the heat between our bodies. I pulled off his tee shirt and his pants followed, and so did his briefs. In the matter of a few moments, we were both completely naked and already breathing hard.

“Nick—”

He cut me off again and kissed me senseless. I couldn’t speak or think as I allowed Nick to completely overtake me. While his lips were taking me to another heaven, his hand kept drawing circles on my back, which was making it even harder to breathe. He pressed his erection hard against me, and when he found that I was already wet, he gave me a cunning smile.

I smelled of heavenly chocolate, and Nick could feel the strong waves of passion in me. He wasn’t just making love; he was touching and licking me everywhere. I knew he would be licking the inside of me soon, and he would make me feel his strong, hard length, too. I couldn’t wait to take his hardness in my hands and turn him on.

With his strong hands, he made me sit on the counter, and even before I could process what was happening, Nick slid inside me. He was already hard, and his maleness pressed hard into my soft, swollen spot. My nerve endings were on fire and I wanted to both live and die at the same time. He took my hands and slowly licked my fingers. I held onto him for my dear life, and he slowly kissed me right in between my breasts. He kept moving up and down and then pushed himself harder. When he reached deeper, I moaned his name—loudly.

I couldn’t sit still any longer, and I had to dig my fingers into his bare chest.

Nick was feeling the pleasure run through his body too, but he wasn’t done yet. He pulled me harder and then thrust his long hardness inside me. I crashed with the climax, and I felt like my whole body was no longer in my control. I wasn’t expecting the move, and the sudden movement gave me the kind of ride I thought wasn’t human to experience. He pushed up and down and left me breathless, the cupcake long forgotten.

I was lying on my kitchen counter with crumbled pieces of cupcake all over my body. Nick looked like he was looking for a lot more. He was every bit the bad boy he looked. He was a sex god, and I had to say that he knew his way around my body.

“I want you again,” he said, and without wasting another moment, he climbed over me. He was still hard, and it pleased me immensely to know I had that kind of effect on him.

“Let us take it slow this time. I want to live every moment of this memory,” I told him.

“Yes, honey, your wish is my command.”

He kissed my nipples and took his sweet time caressing them. He rubbed his stubble on them, and I had to moan very loudly. I cried his name, and I could barely remember who I was. The rush of blood was so intense that my nipples stood erect. I was experiencing a never-before-seen sexual journey, and I wanted Nick to have such a thrilling experience too.

I tugged at his earlobe and slowly licked him, purring like a sex kitten. Nick’s green eyes dilated, and I could see the hungry lust clouded in his beautiful eyes.

“Babe, are you ready to ride me tonight?”

“More than ready. I can’t wait to let you in.”

“So, why wait then? Come shatter me apart with an orgasm so strong, my insides scream your name.”

“Don’t talk. Let me roll on top of you and make you come.”

I then tugged his lower lip and pulled it, and then planted a trial of hot and hungry kisses all over his body. He loved to see me in command, and I was amazed at this new side of me, too.

Sex was definitely a great stress buster, and I felt like I was finally at peace. Nothing in this world mattered more to me. I sat on his perfect white body, and my dark skin contrasted to his impeccable white color, and somehow, we both felt complete. I positioned myself in a way that I could actually push his big, long erection inside my swollen center. This time it was Nick’s turn to swear and scream, and when I bent down to kiss him, he lost all his senses completely and pushed with all his might.

We were still hungry for each other, and it felt like the heat could burn the room alive. Nick realized that the things we wanted to do to each other required that we move away from the kitchen counter, and so he hauled me in his big alpha arms and carried me to my bed. He kept nuzzling and fondling my breasts and kissed me wherever he could on the way to my bed.

Once we reached there, he spread my arms and legs and simply looked at me like I was his most precious possession.

“Do I really turn you on, Nick?”

“Oh, babe, you do. I don’t get tired of doing this. If I could, I would live inside you, every fucking night.”

“What’s wrong with the day?” I asked and he laughed.

“I could do it all day and all night.”

“Then…what are we waiting for?” I said and gave him what I thought was my most seductive smile.

Nick jumped on the bed, and before I could open my mouth again, he immediately pushed his fingers inside my hole. He didn’t just push them inside, he started traveling in, and it rocked my world all over again. He started drawing tiny circles and kept moving them in a rhythmic manner. He knew very well that this would leave me panting, and I couldn’t quite control myself anymore. I was entirely wet and senseless. I kept tossing, and he used his hands to keep me firmly pinned. When he had aroused me enough, he kissed me fervently right on the center of my swollen wetness. His tongue played the tricks, and my mind stopped working.

I had no idea that a kiss could do so much. The moment his lips touched my clit, I rocked. Nick hadn't even entered me, and my orgasm shattered through me. I was sure that we would be breaking all kinds of records of the number of orgasms we could have in a single night.

“Nick, I want us to come together.”

The moment I said this, Nick spread apart my legs wider, and then pushed himself inside me. He didn’t go all the way, but simply entered inside and looked at me wickedly.

“Make me come,” he said, and I knew he wanted me to take him on the wildest ride. This was one bad boy I would never grow tired of kissing. I quickly swapped positions, and in another instant, I was over Nick, and he was lying beneath me. His hands kept balancing my breasts that had become really hard with all the blood pulsing through them.

“Nick, you’re going to come so hard. Hold on until we do it together,” I said, then locked my legs firmly on his hips. I rode up and down his penis as hard as I could. I could feel the pressure build inside him, but Nick was strong enough to keep control. He didn’t let me have the pleasure of making him come instantly, and when he realized that I was perilously close to my release, he rocked his hips higher and pushed even deeper and harder inside me.

The moment he touched my most sensitive spot, I could feel the beginning of my orgasm. I held on to Nick, and he rolled inside me, and we both came down with a thundering release. I could feel the passion shatter through us, and we weren’t two different bodies anymore.

With his masculinity firmly entwined with my womanhood, there was nothing that felt wrong anymore. We were one.

“I love you, Nick,” I said. Yet, I received no response.

Nick had frozen.
