Seducing Celestine Read online

  “Push me away then or take me inside, it’s up to you, baby.”

  Celestine knew she should have let go of his cock as soon as she had grabbed it but it was so hard and long and it made a girl wonder…

  “Other than your name and that you make a habit of creeping into women’s bedrooms at night… I don’t know you.” Somewhere, in some old-fashioned place within her, Celestine needed to justify what she knew she was about to do. That or have some logical reason come into her mind that indicated why she could not have sex with this stranger. It would not necessarily be a reason she would actually follow but it would make her feel better later on when she thought about this man.

  “Well, let’s get to know each other.” Nick’s mouth descended hotly on hers.

  “I…” Celestine pushed him away momentarily. “This is way too fast,” said the woman who still held the stranger’s cock in her other hand.

  “Come on, baby, you know we’d be good together.”

  “I don’t.” But she did. Some things you just knew. She reluctantly let go of his cock. There was no way she could look or sound convincing about not having sex if she still held on.

  “So if I put my head between your legs right now and licked you, you would feel nothing?”

  Celestine stiffened at his words. Wild excitement coursed through her at the thought of complete stranger doing that to her. It was like a fantasy coming to life.

  “You’re not going to do that…” Dual personalities fought over wanting him to do that. The bad girl was “yes please” and the good girl was like “Do you think you should?” The bad girl snapped back. “Shut up and go back to your knitting, good girl.” The pushy bad girl won.

  “Dare me, baby…”

  Could she? Should she? Would she? Hell, yes…

  “I dare you…” Celestine whispered. Who was she kidding? She wanted this man, dream or no dream. He was hot, she was hot. It was a done deal they were going to burn together.

  Nick moved back and threw her legs up onto his shoulders, exposing her wet, hot core to his mouth.

  The minute his tongue touched her clit, Celestine screamed. There was no way she could have kept that in. No one had ever licked her like this. She had wanted them to, hoped they would but she had never asked. Now this man, a stranger, was licking the cleft between her legs with a gentle, yet determined ruthlessness just because he wanted to give her pleasure. It was a moment to die for.

  “So you want my cock inside you?” Nick stopped licking her and looked the writhing woman in the eye. He was going to enjoy this one. She was made to be fucked.

  “Yes…God, yes…” Celestine moaned, no longer caring what happened to her as long as this stranger was inside her.

  “Say it.” Nick wanted her complete submission.

  “Shove your big fat cock inside me now!” Celestine was completely out of her mind and she liked it. She clutched at the man before her.

  Nick threw back his head and laughed. He could not have waited much longer. He grabbed her hips and pulled them up against his thighs and penetrated her in one long stroke.

  “God, you are so tight!”

  Celestine yelled. He was so large she could feel him hot and hard up into her stomach. She groaned as he pulled out and pushed into her at a steady pace, never quite letting the head of his cock leave her body. It was a completely different sensation from any she had felt before.

  “Oh, Nick…” Celestine whimpered softly as intense pleasure tore through her body. She clasped Nick to her and held on as he drove them both on to a wild climax. Celestine screamed and Nick groaned out loud and fell forward into Celestine arms.

  “Bloody hell…” Celestine panted softly as she tried to catch her breath. She had never felt an orgasm like that before. Wild sex with this stranger was definitely worth any possible damnation to hell.

  “You are beautiful, baby.” Nick smiled down at the woman under him. They were both hot and sweaty and he had never felt more alive in his life. He sighed heavily. “I can’t stay.” Nick rolled onto his back.

  “What?” A minute after earth-shattering sex and he was announcing he was leaving. Okay, she wasn’t expecting a wedding ring but this seemed kind of hasty after what they had just done. And yeah, maybe she had hoped for more.

  Nick leaned over and kissed Celestine with a thoroughness that they both enjoyed.

  “I just came for the ride.” He slid out of bed and started pulling on the clothes he had discarded earlier.

  Celestine sat up and watched him. What a fascinating yet irritating tease of a man. It seemed kind of sad she would not see him again. Sad and frustrating also that she would never had sex like that again. Bloody typical…nothing good ever lasted.

  “I see, now it’s over, you’re like Zorro or something. You have to leave and fight evildoers or have sex with another woman.”

  “I only want you now,” Nick almost said. There was something about this woman that made him want to do that. That was not what he had planned when he had climbed onto this bedroom.

  “Next time I’ll bring a condom.” It was completely unlike him to be unprepared for a moonlight ride but then he hadn’t been prepared for Celestine.

  “Ain’t going to be a next time, moonlight man.”

  Nick laughed softly and left through the window.

  Now Celestine understood why the villagers in all those B movies asked “Who was the masked man?” as he swept through a village, saving the day and riding off without a word. Although she could see his eyes, she knew Nick Swan was wearing a mask. But then, most people did. She also knew she should be mortified at her actions. It was wrong and bad and she would probably go to hell in a handbasket but damn it was good.

  Chapter Two

  “You know I can’t hide out at your place forever, Tess,” Celestine said as she handed her best friend a piece of tape to secure the cascade of silver ribbons from the large dining table in the middle of the lounge room. When Tess Mackenzie decided to have her engagement party on the Australia Day weekend she went all out. No expense was spared. But then she was marrying into money and that made a hell of a difference. Her doting fiancé Brad was more than happy to place his credit card at Tess’ disposal. And Tess, in turn, had run around decking out her Brisbane home, turning it into a showplace of love, commitment and the benefits of marrying into money. But Celestine couldn’t fault Tess. A man loved her and wanted to share his fortune with her. That did not happen every day. Hell, she would cut loose as well.

  “I need you here to help me with the engagement party preparations.” Tess tugged at the ribbons so they fell exactly as she wanted them.

  The theme was silver and white. Why? Just because that was what Tess wanted. If the engagement party was such a production, Celestine wondered what was planned for the wedding. Maybe a pumpkin carriage with doves being set free while an orchestra played on as the bride made very other woman there look like crap, as was the bride’s right.

  “I need to find a job.” It was Celestine’s current mantra in life. Find job, get money and de-stress.

  “That can wait. I need you here.”

  “No, you don’t. You insisted I stay to give me a break from my own dingy home and all the problems that go with it.” Tess was a good friend and Celestine appreciated it. She would have been lying if she said she had not enjoyed staying in a home that had a full fridge of food and more than a couple of bits of furniture.

  “No, you’re right but I want you here, Cellie. Every time I think about what Julia Bailey did to you I want to hunt her down and throttle her.”

  “Well, stand in line.” Celestine had dibs on any possible throttling when it came to their mutual ex-friend Julia who had stolen Celestine’s money and credit cards, and sold all her household goods then scarpered, leaving Celestine with nothing but bills and credit problems up to her ears.

  “Were you comfortable last night?”

  Celestine stiffened at her friend’s innocent words. Up until this mome
nt she had decided to write last night and Nick Swan off as a dream, a very real dream but still a dream. Though the pleasant ache between her legs was hard to ignore.

  “I…ah…was very comfortable.” She toyed with the idea of mentioning her “moonlight ride” with Tess. After all the man had come to see her. “About your bedroom…” Celestine stopped as she heard footsteps coming toward them. She did not want the prospective groom to hear of his intended’s past nighttime liaisons.

  “Nicky!” Tess shouted and ran forward as Nick Swan came into the room with her fiancé Brad Williams.

  Bloody hell! Nick Swan! What was he doing here? Celestine looked at him critically in the bright sunlight. He was all that and everything that she remembered from the night before. His blue eyes locked with hers as he hugged Tess to him.

  “Cellie, I don’t believe you’ve ever met Nick Swan.”

  “I…ah…” What did she say? “I met him, I fucked him and liked it so much that I would not be adverse to having him inside me again. Please leave the room so we can have wild sex again.” Probably not appropriate to go with those words. “Um…” Yes, “um” seemed like the better alternative to go with as it was an “um” moment. Celestine had an overwhelming urge to look in the direction of Nick Swan’s groin just to see if he was as large as she believed he was from last night. But that wasn’t a ladylike thing to do or explain away so she kept her eyes on his. After all, it was just sex they had. She could be sophisticated enough to look calm even if she did not feel it.

  Nick smiled at Celestine as if he knew exactly what she was thinking. He caught her hand in his as Tess introduced them.

  Celestine was intrigued and slightly relieved he did not mention their previous meeting. She was not ashamed of what she did. She just did not want everyone knowing her business. If Tess could keep Nick a secret, so could she.

  “I’m glad you’re here, Nicky, as I want you to have a look at the kitchen and tell me if you can add those extra shelves for me straightaway.” Tess turned to Celestine in explanation. “Nick is not only a dear friend but he also runs a construction company. He’s doing me a favor putting in some extra shelves in the kitchen for plates and stuff. Isn’t he sweet?”

  “He’s a darling,” Celestine responded overly sweetly. It was weird being with him and Tess in the same room, knowing what they had all done.

  “Can you show Nick to the kitchen, Cellie? I want to show Brad some of the engagement gifts that have arrived.” Tess dragged her man out of the room.

  “Show me the kitchen, baby.” Nick moved to stand close beside her.

  “I’m not a baby.” He did not seem so tall last night. Celestine was overwhelmed by the size of him. He was a man mountain.

  Nick leaned down and whispered close to her ear.

  “You’re sweet and cute and cuddly.”

  “Whatever.” Celestine wanted to sound calm and unaffected but that was kind of hard with hot breath on her neck bringing back memories of last night. The man was still imprinted inside her body.

  “You know you’ve got a love bite on your neck.” The reddish mark on her neck stood out like a beacon to Nick. This woman was marked for life, she just did not realize it yet.

  Celestine put her hand to her neck and scowled at him. She had thought she had covered that up with concealer. But of course he would know it was there.

  “Do you want to look at the kitchen, or what?”

  “Lead on and I shall follow.” Nick stuck close to her heels. He would see to “or what” when he got into the kitchen.

  “You don’t have to stand so close. Are you afraid you’ll get lost?” Celestine pushed through the swing doors of the large modern kitchen and tried to distance herself from her large companion. He was so close to her the she could feel the contained tension of his cock against her ass.

  Nick had no plans on being outdistanced. He knew the minute he came into this house this morning he was going to fuck Celestine Holt again. One time with her would never be enough.

  “No, I just want to be close to you.” Nick crowded her up against a kitchen bench.

  “Why?” She knew why but wasn’t about to go down that path again. That path was sexually fantastic but where was it going to lead to? “What are you doing?” Celestine slapped at the large hands that moved under the skirt of her light sundress.

  “I want to touch you.”

  “We’re in a kitchen where anyone can see us.” Celestine struggled to keep her panties on. His big hands seemed to be everywhere.

  “So?” Nick asked as if he did not find the fact at all significant. He pulled her panties down despite her protests. “Don’t wear panties anymore.” He slid them into his pocket.

  “What?” Just the husky way he said it made Celestine wet.

  “I need to have access to you at all times.” Nick’s hand slid straight in between her legs. He felt her jump in reaction. That she was wet already pleased him.

  The man had one hand on her pussy and the other on her ass, kneading her cheeks, and Celestine felt utterly helpless to move. She was held in place by their mutual lust.

  “You’re awfully sure of yourself.” She gasped as his fingers circled her clit slowly. Celestine felt a familiar surge of heat run through her. Her head fell back in pleasure.

  “Baby, you and I are just meant to be.” Nick was turned on just watching her reaction.

  “We can’t do this now.” Though lord knows she wanted to. The need to have Nick inside her again was overwhelming.

  “Why not?” Nick asked as he placed his hand around her waist and lifted her up onto the kitchen countertop, spreading her legs to accommodate the width of his body.

  As Nick slid the shoulder straps of her sundress down, Celestine knew if he touched her breasts she would be lost. Oh hell, she was lost from the moment she met him.

  “Anyone can walk in right now.” Just the thought of her being caught naked with Nick inside her was wildly exciting. She had never felt this way before with any other man. She never allowed anyone to have control over her until now. She was playing by Nick Swan’s wild rules.

  “Tell me to stop.” Nick pulled her bra off completely and put it into his other pocket as another keepsake. His large hands descended on the breasts.

  “Stop,” Celestine choked out softly as his fingers circled her nipples.

  “Say it like you mean it.” Nick’s head lowered to suck her breasts.

  “I…” Whatever extremely rational thing she had been planning to say dissolved under the hungry suction of Nick’s mouth on her breast. “Oh God…” She clasped his head to her.

  “Undo me…” Nick lifted his head and whispered against her mouth.

  As his mouth once again descended on her breasts, Celestine gave up any pretense of not wanting to have sex with Nick and unzipped his pants. She wanted him. What was really wrong was that? Nothing that she could see. And, yeah, sure, the fact they were about to have sex in the kitchen was probably not a wise thing to do but being smart was not the be-all and end-all in life. Pleasure rated highly as well.

  “Oh sweet mercy…” Nick’s cock sprang forward and overflowed her hands. Was there a Guinness Book of Records measurement for cock size? If so Nick Swan had to be in the running for the title. He was huge. Celestine licked her lips in anticipation.

  “I’m glad you approve, baby, as you and my cock are going to be spending a lot of quality time together.” Nick grabbed her hips and pulled her forward.

  “We can’t do this here!” It was only a halfhearted plea for rationality as she wrapped her legs around his waist in response.

  “Why not?”

  “Someone will see us.”

  “Do you care?”

  “Don’t you?”

  “Not particularly. It’s just a simple fact that I want you and I plan to have you.” Nick breathed the words against her mouth. He smiled as he felt Celestine shudder in response. “Do you want me?”

  There was a bleedingly obvious answer to th
at. Hell, yes, and do it now! Celestine was wet with wanting.

  “Yes.”

  “Then that’s all we need to worry about. Reach into my back pocket and get a condom.”

  Celestine did as requested and found the foil packet. She ripped it open with her teeth and slowly sheathed his tight cock.

  “Hold on, baby, it’s going to be hard and fast.” Nick pushed inside her.

  Last night she was unsure how his cock would ever fit inside her. Today, she knew he fit and she wanted all of him inside her now. Celestine put her hands on his ass, urging him in and on. She moaned as he filled her completely. She had never felt anything as good as Nick hard and hot inside her body.

  Nick slowly starting thrusting in and out of her, building up the pace as his lips devoured hers in a hungry kiss.

  Celestine didn’t know whether it was the man, or that they were doing it in a room anyone could walk in to but her orgasm was building up swift and sharp as he started pounding into her with an urgency that matched her own need to come.

  “Oh…oh…” Celestine screamed as the orgasm started to overwhelm her.

  Nick laughed.

  “I like a woman who shows her appreciation. Come for me, baby.” He thrust several more times and felt the tremor rip through Celestine’s body and his own as they came together, Celestine crying out his name incoherently.

  “Is everything all right, Cellie?” Tess called out very loudly as she approached the kitchen.

  “Bloody hell!” She was in a kitchen being screwed by a god and her best friend was just about to walk in. Celestine pushed Nick from her body and jumped down from the bench. She quickly pulled up her shoulder straps and smoothed down her skirt. She was completely aware that she was braless and she hoped Tess did not notice.

  “Are you okay?” Tess looked from Celestine to Nick. “I heard a scream.”

  “Celestine thought she saw a mouse.” Nick looked at Celestine solicitously.

  “In my kitchen? No way! Brad, darling, can you and Nick check the kitchen out for this mouse. I need to talk to Cellie.”
