Cruel Devil: An Enemies with Benefits Romance (Boys of Sun Valley Book 3)

I ignore the way my heart is racing in my chest.

“By the guy who just called me stupid, shallow, and implied I was unattractive and incapable of holding a man’s attention?” I shake my head. “I think I’m good.”

There’s a flash of something in his gaze I can’t quite put my finger on. His hold tightens on my ass and his dick strains against his jeans, pressing firmly between my thighs. What was I thinking wrapping my legs around him like this?

As if hearing my thoughts, Dominique smirks. Asshole. I decide to give him a taste of his own medicine.

Using his shoulders for leverage I raise myself up a few inches and roll my hips over his length in a long caress. He sucks in a breath, his eyes dark and filled with challenge.

Holding his stare, I do it again, and his entire body trembles with need. I’m not blind. Despite his earlier words, he wants me. He won’t after today, but right now at this very moment, Dominique Price wants to fuck me, and knowing that sends a flood of euphoria surging through me. This means he’s no longer in control here. I’m the one with all the power now.

‘Don’t start something you can’t finish.’

‘Why not? It’s not like you could possibly want me, right? So why would me doing this,’ I grind my pussy against him again, liquid heat soaking my panties, ‘matter to you? You can’t possibly be affected, right?’

He doesn’t say a word, but when I give another deliberate roll of my hips, he digs his fingers into my ass and thrusts upward, grinding his dick into me in response.

To my complete horror, a moan escapes me, and he levels me with a knowing smirk.

I dig my short nails into his shoulders as he dry humps me against the classroom door in long languid thrusts and Oh. My. God. That feels good.

One of his hands comes up to knead my breast and I shamelessly arch into his touch. He grunts against the corner of my mouth and the sound snaps something in me, lifting some of the pleasure-induced haze from my eyes.

Why do I let him make me feel like this? I fucking hate him.

Taking a deep breath, I lean forward, licking and biting my way up his neck until my lips graze the shell of his ear. ‘What would you do if I told you to fuck me?’ I whisper and swirl my tongue along his skin.

His sharp intake of breath lets me know I’ve surprised him and he freezes, pulling back just enough to meet my gaze. His eyes are drowning in need, but there’s a hint of confusion too, so I decide to taunt him some more. I make a show of licking my lips and his eyes immediately drop to my mouth.

‘You’d like that, wouldn’t you?’

He doesn’t answer, but his muscles strain against his skin, the veins in his neck protruding.

‘I bet you’d like it even more if I begged for it. Got down on my knees and showed you just how bad I—’

His fist tangles in my hair and he yanks my face toward his, tilting my head so his lips can capture my own. His kiss is savage and hungry as he claims my mouth with his tongue in long greedy stokes. I moan into his mouth, and that only seems to spur him on.

His grip holds me in place, leaving me no choice but to accept his punishing kiss. The hand in my hair moves to the side of my neck in a possessive hold while the other continues to hold me up, kneading my ass. He pulls away from the door and carries me further into the room, his mouth never leaving mine until I feel a solid surface beneath me.

Dominique sets me down on a long table, but he doesn’t release me. ‘That what you want?’ he asks, and it takes me a few seconds to remember what I said to him before that kiss. ‘You want me to fuck you while you beg for my cock?’

God, yes. Not that I’ll ever admit it out loud. Instead, I lean back, pressing my palms on the table to hold myself up. His hand slips from my neck right as I say, ‘No thanks. I think I’m good.’

I allow a smirk to curl the corners of my mouth as I raise both brows, giving him a disinterested look.

He glares at me in disbelief and then something in him shifts. Tension crackles like lightning between us, and I fight not to squirm under his intense stare.

‘You almost had me,’ he tsks with an amused laugh. ‘Almost. But if you think for one second I’m going to buy that mouthful of lies, guess again, baby girl.’ He steps into me, cupping my sex and driving the heel of his palm against me. ‘You’re soaked pussy doesn’t lie. I can feel how wet you are through your jeans.”

My eyes pop wide and my heart beats frantically against my chest before I can pull myself together enough to bite out, ‘Screw you.’

‘You’d like that wouldn’t you?’ He smirks, palm still pressed firmly against my center. My hips lift off the table of their own volition when he pushes down on my clit. I gasp, biting back a moan, and my cheeks burn with humiliation, but I can’t find it in me to tell him to stop. It feels so good.

“I don’t like liars,” he grunts, his eyes locked on his hand between my legs. Wait. What? He drags my hips to the edge of the table until my butt is about to slide off. Then he spreads my legs, creating enough room for him to step between them. He makes no effort to mask his desire as he slams his lips down on mine again and groans into my mouth right before he fists my hair and jerks my head back, tearing his lips from mine and leaving me to stare up at the ceiling. He scrapes his teeth along the column of my throat, nipping and sucking on my sensitive skin.

I gasp, and a fresh wave of pleasure filters through me, igniting every cell in my body.

He runs his nose up the side of my neck, inhaling me as he says, “So, I have to punish you.’ There’s a note of regret in his voice, and the next thing I know, he’s spun me around to face the opposite wall. My feet hit the floor, my body bent over the desk and my ass thrust out toward him. One hand presses down on the center of my spine, effectively pinning me in place as the other roams over my hip, trailing down to my ass.

‘What am I being punished for?’ My heart rate picks up.

‘You lied to me.’

I shake my head in denial. ‘I didn’t lie.’ My voice shakes, but whether from desire or fear, I’m not entirely sure.

‘There you go again,’ he tsks.

His hand dips lower, boldly stroking the inside of my thighs as he uses his legs to force me into a wider stance. I grind my teeth together to hold back the moan that threatens to spill past my lips.

‘I’m going to give you a second chance to come clean, because despite what you think, I’m not a complete asshole.’

I start to laugh, but the sound dies in my throat when I feel the ridge of his cock dig into my ass, hard and demanding. What is he doing to me? We don’t get along. We definitely don’t like one another. But the level of need I feel right now is like nothing I’ve felt before, which is both exhilarating and terrifying at the same time because this is bad. So fucking bad.

‘Do you want me to fuck you, baby girl?’ My mouth goes dry as he thrusts against me, pressing his cock against the crack of my ass as he minicks fucking me. ‘Do you want to beg for my cock as I thrust deep inside you?’

My pussy clenches and his vulgar words almost undo me. I swallow hard and manage to deliver a shaky denial, ‘No.’

He stops moving and exhales a sigh full of resignation, as if my response somehow pains him. ‘I did warn you,’ he says, his voice tinged with regret.

I swallow hard, wondering what he intends to do next. I’ve never seen him like this. He’s always been so restrained. We fight, sure, but with words. This isn’t anything like our usual battles. This is like going to war and I am wholly outmatched and unprepared for this kind of fight.

One hand reaches around me and undoes the button on my jeans. ‘Last chance,’ he offers, but words die on my tongue. My thighs tighten in anticipation. Is he…are we going to…

His fingers hook into my jeans, dragging them over my hips and exposing my rear. He leaves my underwear in place, but all I’m wearing is a hot pink thong that leaves my entire backside on display. ‘Fuck,’ he groans and cups my ass cheeks, spreading them with his fingers while also pushing me forward, father across the table until the tops of my thighs can’t go any further.

‘Tell me to stop,’ he growls. ‘If you’re not okay with this, whatever the fuck is about to happen right now, tell me now.’ He runs his fingers down the crack of my ass until he reaches my pussy and presses his fingers into me through the soaked fabric of my panties. My legs quake.

I should do what he suggests, tell him to stop, but I’m drunk on desire, feeling like I’ll explode if he stops touching me, so I keep my lips pressed together and shake my head. I’ll regret this come morning.

I won’t be able to pretend this didn’t happen. I won’t be able to forget his hands on me or the sensation of him thrusting between my thighs. This is a mistake and I know it. I just don’t fucking care.

Dominique twists his hand in my hair and I instinctively know what comes next. It’s no surprise when he yanks on it, forcing my back to arch and my chin to jut forward. He seems to like that, pulling my hair. And I can’t say that I’m complaining about it.

I don’t have a lot of experience in this arena. I’ve fooled around before, sure. Given head. Had my pussy eaten out. But I haven’t gone all the way with anyone. I’m not saving myself for marriage or anything like that, I just never cared about any of my past boyfriends enough to spread my legs for them.

I’ve never been with a guy like this. One who my body responds to on a visceral level.

Dom shifts to the side, no longer between my thighs, but he doesn’t let go of my hair. He winds it around his fist, tightening his hold as his other hand hooks beneath the fabric of my panties and a lone finger slips between my wet slit.

I moan when he finds my clit, brushing his finger over the sensitive nub.

“Dominique …” I gasp, and his finger moves faster against me, my hips rearing back of their own accord. The pain in my scalp and the pleasure between my thighs has pure heat zipping down my spine. My toes curl and I’m panting heavy, my release so incredibly close.

‘Don’t say I didn’t warn you,’ he mutters under his breath right before he withdraws his finger from between my legs and his palm slaps my bare ass cheek. I yelp, jolting forward, but the table makes it impossible to go anywhere.

Holy fuck. ‘Did you just spank me?’

Instead of answering, he spanks my other cheek and I slap my palm against the table.

‘I warned you what would happen if you didn’t tell the truth.’ He massages my burning flesh, lessening the sting a bit, only to slap me again. I cry out, but the sound is cut off when he releases my hair only to wrap his hand over my mouth.

‘Shhhh….’ he whispers. ‘Keep making that sound and someone is bound to come and investigate what is going on in here.’

I try to shift away from him. When he said he was going to punish me for lying, I didn’t expect this.

He chuckles, like my attempt at escape amuses him. ‘I’m not done with you yet. I think you deserve at least two more.” A fourth smack is delivered and I scream, but his palm muffles the sound.

‘Your ass turns the prettiest shade of pink,” he tells me, and I whimper against his palm.

He squeezes my ass, trailing his fingers over each cheek and between my cleft. He said two more, but he’s only delivered one, and the anticipation of what is still to come grips my chest.

Dominique lets go of my mouth and shifts behind me, pressing his erection against me. “Want to try again?” he asks, rocking his hips against me. “Tell me the truth and maybe I’ll consider giving you what you want. Beg for my cock the way we both know you want to.”

The smug sound of his voice has my eyes narrowing and I lift my head to look over my shoulder. I won’t beg for anything. Not from him or anyone else. My gaze collides with his and just as I open my mouth to tell him to fuck off, his palm slaps my ass, harder than all of the times before.

I open my mouth on a silent scream before sucking in a shaky breath as I sag against the table.

Dominique steps back, moving around the table until he’s standing in front of me, able to meet my gaze. He casually leans forward, pushing the hair out of my face. I should stand up. At the very least pull my jeans back over my ass, but I can’t seem to find the energy to move.

“You know, you’re not nearly as insufferable when you’re like this.”

I raise one hand and flip him off.

He laughs and then, unsurprisingly, walks out of the classroom without so much as a goodbye.
