The Billionaire's Son 8 : Always & Forever (A BDSM Erotic Romance) (Billionaire Erotica) (4 page)

***

I returned to our table, trying to maintain a neutral expression. Derek seated me and then asked, "Did you get my present?"

"I did."

"And? Why do you look so glum?"
He looked at me quizzically.

I haughtily returned his gaze.
"
Really
Derek! I hardly think this is the appropriate place for that sort of thing!"

Without warning, a
soft buzz sent a burst of tiny shockwaves coursing through my pussy. "Ohhh!" I gasped.

Crossing his arms, Derek sat back in his chair. "So
,
you weren't impressed with my
gift
?"

I started to answer,
"No. Oh, oh, oooooh
,
" but wiggled in my chair as a longer vibration pulsed, sending
delicious
jolts
shooting through
my pussy.

He smiled lazily, devastating my slim grasp of control. "That's too bad. I thought you might enjoy it."

We locked eyes. "Well, you were…" Another jolt and I was moaning louder. I vaguely noticed the elderly lady to my right shooting daggers at me with her eyes, but I didn't care
anymore
.

"I was what?" Derek's voice went from joking to
huskily
intense.

My pussy was throbbing with
mounting
excitement
. Not knowing when the next jolt would come was driving me insane with anticipation. "You were… Mmmmm, yeah." A strong
er buzz had me closing my eyes trying to contain my reaction.

"God, you're so damned sexy. I don't think I can keep my hands off of you."

My eyes flew open as the vibrat
or
stopped again.
The women next to us was standing in disgust and leaving in a huff with her oblivious husband.

I felt my panties getting soaked.
I warned in a low voice,
"Derek, you better be careful. I don't want to make a scene, but one more press of that button and I can't promise that I won't rip your clothes off and
crawl all
over you.
Right here. Right nowwww…
"

A pulsing rhythm
sliced
between my legs, shattering my
last shreds of
composure. My knees
squeezed together tightly as the delicious sensations washed through me. The intensity was building fast. I was going to explode.
I cried out, a little too loud,
"Oh! Derek. Oh my God! Derek!"

The vibrations stopped again, leaving me on the edge of an abyss
,
pant
ing
with arousal. I noticed a
few other
patrons
turning our way
, wondering what the commotion was
all
about
.

Derek's gaze remained locked on me. He looked ready to pounce. I ached to feel his touch
-
his hands on my skin, his lips on my body. Bringing me to new heights of ecstasy as only he could.

S
uddenly
,
th
e
dry
restaurant got a whole lot more exciting.
"
D
o
you
still
think it's stuffy in here, Julia?
"

I could barely maintain the banter anymore. "I
t seems to have picked up a bit, but it still needs a, ahhh, aieeeeee…"

My hands
claspe
d the tablecloth and twisted it mercilessly. My back arched as I involuntarily ground my pussy into the chair. I felt my hardened nipples
press
ing against my silky top.

"Derek!" I gasped.
"I'm going to … arggh."

My eyes closed as the powerful release overtook me. I felt my inner walls clenching furiously around the vibrator as it continued
to buzz. I writhed in the chair for what felt like an eternity until the vibrations finally ended.

Moaning, I opened my eyes to see Derek staring at me, looking
undone
. The lustful gaze was all I could take. Without thinking, I sprung from my chair and launched into his lap. My desperate lips met his in a
needy,
toe-curling kiss. Derek's arms wrapped around me, his hands were tangling in my hair and running
up and
down my back.

It was an absolutely scorching kiss, right in the middle of the upper-crust restaurant. My head was spinning when Derek finally broke
contact
.

I belatedly noticed the
maître d'
addressing Derek, "
Puis-je vous aider avec quelque chose, Monsieur Vaughn?
"

"No. We
were
just leaving."
Derek stood, forced to hold me steady because of my shaky legs. I vaguely noticed him
throw
some
money
down
on the table
before he walked me out the door
.

***

Derek sat in Julia's office at his father's estate and watched her nervously shuffling papers. It was only two days ago that he was with her in Paris. He had to adjust his position in the chair when he re
calle
d their time together. Damn if his cock didn't get rock hard just remembering how she looked in the throes of an orgasm
in
the
middle of the '
stuffy
'
restaurant in Paris.

It had taken all his willpower to get her out the door and back to the hotel before he ravished her. They had not left the hotel room after that. He had laughed on the plane ride back home when she reminded him that she never got to have the dinner in Paris he had promised her.
They
only
got around to
order
ing
room service when they finally came up for air
hours later
.
He had protested
his innocence stating
that he never expected she would jump
him
in the middle of the restaurant.
Her reply had been quite serious, "I believe I warned you." He smiled just remembering it.

Julia sn
apped him out of his daydream
, "I don't know how you can look so calm about this."

Derek sighed, "I told you, I don't really worry what other people think about me. But if you're not sure, we don't have to do this today."

"No. No, I want to.
I didn't think Jackson would be back to the estate so soon.
I just wish you could come with me. I don't want to face your father by myself." She looked so uncertain.

"I'll come if you want. He'll just wonder why I'm at your business meeting. But that doesn't bother me."

Julia nodded eagerly,
"Yes, I
do
want you to come with me. I'd rather face him together."

Derek wanted to soothe her nerves.
"Julia, remember, he has no say over us
or what we do
. We don't need his permission."

"I know."
But she didn't sound very confident.

They had discussed everything on the plane ride back. Julia had suddenly become adamant that their relationship no longer be a secret. She wanted to tell Jackson and her parents and didn't care if anyone else found out.

Derek pressed her hard about her decision to make sure she knew what she was getting into and that she was sure. There was no shaking her resolve.
He was
extremely glad
that she wanted to take this step, but it had to be her choice.

First they
decided that she needed to wrap up
her
consulting
work with Jackson. They both agreed that Julia should leave out the suspicions of money laundering for now. The potential danger seemed too great. Derek was relieved that she had
figured
this course wa
s best. And Julia's
negative
suspicions of Jackson
w
ould keep her far away from his father. He grimaced as
his
deep-rooted issues with his father
managed to rear
its ugly head again
.

Derek stood and crossed the office toward Julia. He wrapped his arms
protectively
around her. "Don't worry about all this.
Let's just get it over with. Remember, I've got your back. Are you ready?"

Julia nodded. She tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and picked up the auditing report of Jackson's financial empire.

When they reached Jackson's study, Julia turned to look at him. Derek smiled trying to reassure her. He noticed Julia squaring her shoulders
as if preparing for battle
before she knocked on the door.

Jackson called from within, "Please come in."

Just hearing his voice had Derek gritting his teeth. For years, Derek had made excuses for his father's bad behavior. He told himself that his father pushed him hard because he didn't want Derek to get complacent
or lazy
with all the
money
Derek had
at his disposal. Derek even felt that his own success was largely due to trying to please his father. And it had made him a better and stronger man for it.

But what about the affair with Elise? Derek even suspected that his father
could be
responsible for
other
breakups with girlfriends in the past. When he thought back, there had been possibly other affairs involving Jackson, too. And when Derek found out about Jackson's activities at The Club, it was the last straw. He had no respect left for the man. He could barely look his mother in the eye anymore because of
that knowledge.

Derek took a deep breath as they entered the study. He needed to erase the thoughts swirling around his head about his father.
He told himself that h
e didn't have to worry about Julia. She
saw
right
through Jackson's charming façade.

Jackson stood and walked towards them as they entered. "Derek! What a surprise.
It's good to see you
, son
. Although
,
right now I have a meeting with
M
iss
Collins
. Will you stop by later?
"

Derek half-heartedly returned his father's quick embrace. "
Actually, Ju
lia invited me to this meeting."

Jackson turned to Julia, "Hello, Julia. I didn't realize you were acquainted with my son?"

Julia shook Jackson's extended hand. "Yes, I am. And I
did ask him to join us if that
is alright."

Another man approached from the
back of the room
. Jackson turned toward him, "
Of course, Derek can stay.
Julia, do you remember my assistant, Henry Thomas?"

Derek noticed Julia's body stiffen and
her
face pale considerably. Instinctively, he took a step closer to her as h
e
turned toward the new man. It took him a second to place the face.
It was the man trying to accost Julia at The Equinox party.
Derek's hackles rose as his adrenaline started pumping. He wanted to pound the man into the ground.

Julia regained her composure quickly. She shot Derek a warning look before shaking the man's hand. "Mr. Thomas, nice to see you again."

Derek thought the man held on to Julia's hand
for
too long as he returned her greeting. Derek deliberately turned away from the man, effectively snubbing him
as the man was about to extend a handshake to him
, just so he wouldn't be tempted to do anything stupid. The last thing he wanted to do was inadvertently reveal Julia's identity
as a member of
The Club.

Jackson motioned them to the large wooden conference table at the far end of the study. "Can I get you a coffee? Or something else?"

Julia declined and began going through her papers at the table. Derek remained standing while Jackson and his assistant sat across from her.

Jackson began, "Julia, Mr. Thomas has been going through your report. He tells me that your work is quite thorough and
meticulously
documented. I'm most interested in the
embezzlement activities you encountered at Venture Corporation. The other items, while important, are not that complicated to understand and quite minor. Would you please give me a quick breakdown of your findings at Venture Corp?"

While Julia outlined her discoveries, Derek's mind wandered. After today's meeting, Julia would be finished working with Jackson. Then she mentioned wanting to take a much needed vacation
on a sunny beach
,
sipping fruity drinks
. He was sure he could manage a couple of weeks away from his work.
He thought a tropical island somewhere in the South Pacific would be perfect. Maybe a luxury hotel in Fiji or a water bungalow in Bora Bora.

Imagining
Julia
sunbathing
in a skimpy bikini and lathering her
self
with sunscreen
,
h
e felt his cock hardening in his pants
in response
. He stamped out the
vivid and sexy imagery.
Later he could indulge in his bikini fantasies. Or better yet, ask Julia to model some for him.
Right now he had to focus on this meeting.

Jackson was just ordering Mr. Thomas to follow-up on some items and
after
wards
essentially dismissing
the man
. When Mr. Thomas had left, he turned to Julia. "So Julia, why did you want Derek to be present at the meeting? How is he involved in all this?"

Julia glanced his way before answering. "He's not involved in this really. I did audit his business records at your request and his personal financial records as well. And as you know, everything checked out great."

"Yes, you told me. Then what
'
s this all about?" Jackson turned toward Derek questioningly.

Julia continued
awkwardly
, "Well, Jackson, I wanted to let you know -
w
e wanted to let you know that we are
together. As a couple. That we have a relationship."

Jackson laughed. Derek knew the laugh. It was a haughty laugh of dismissal. "You can't be serious, Derek? You're dating Miss Collins?"

"I am very serious." Derek's answer
was uncompromisingly,
almost
sounding like
a warning.

Jackson laughed again and turned to Julia, "Julia, my dear, I feel I should warn you that my son is quite the ladies' man. My son has fooled you - he is very persuasive and you are not the first woman to get taken in by him."

Derek felt like his father had just punched him in the stomach. He waited silently for Julia's response. "I haven't been fooled by anyone, Jackson."

Not even glancing in his direction, Jackson
continued reasoning with Julia. "I see he has already found his way inside your bed. He's just using you and he'll toss you away when he's done. Did you know that Derek's involved with some kind of sex club? He even has a girlfriend there, Katia, I think. I'm only telling you, Julia, to protect you - someone from Derek's past is threatening to expose him. I've taken care of his mess for now…"

Derek's insides were seething with bitterness. He could barely stand still while his father spewed such garbage about him to Julia. His hands clenched into
tight
fists as Julia replied, "Derek and I don't have any secrets from each other. Whether you choose to believe it or not, this relationship is
very
real.
"

Jackson turned to direct his venom at Derek. "Is this some kind of pay-back for Elise? I thought better of you
,
son. You want to get back at me by corrupting one of my employees? Julia has nothing to do with it. Or are you just using her for the time being to slake your
own endless
needs?"

Swallowing down his anger and hurt, Derek replied with deadly intensity, "She's not one of your employees anymore, Jackson. And I'm not using her - I'm going to marry her."

Walking
over to Julia's chair
, Derek
placed a hand on her shoulder. "Let's go, Julia. I'm through here."

Derek left
the library
without a
backward
glance.
