Rose (The Billionairess, #1.5)

Chapter 15: Take A Bite

The next morning, there was package waiting on my doostep. A box of chcolates and a bouquet of yellow roses. A little note informed me tehse were form Tristen. I sighed. I really didn't wnat to think about our lunch that day.

Still, I hated for flowers and chcolates to go to waste.

I left the flowers in a vase on a counter, and took the chcolates with me into the bedroom. I decided to share them with Thomas later. I couldn't think of a better middle finger to my ex and his gifts then to share them with my new baby.

Days off are are when you are the head of a company. So when I have them, I always go all out. I changed into some favorite lingerie, the pink kind that is soft against my body, and curled up in bed with a new box of chocolates in a book.

I let my body sink into the silk sheets and enjoyed the cleamy sugar on my tongue as I started diving into Taming the Viscount's Heart. It was the story of a woman hired as a music instructor to a dashing viscount's daughter. The sex scenes were enthralling, which was good, because I had plans for a certain butler on his way from class...

An hour later, I heard the front door open and close, and a pair of shiny leather shoes walk across the marble floor.

I tried to focus on my book, but I just kept listening to the sounds of Thomas. I heard him folding the laundry. I imagined those beautiful hands of his folding my shirts, hanging my gowns, trailing across my intimates. The idea made me chuckle. Who needs a sexy romance novel when I have a kinky angel in my apartment?

I took the little bell off my side table, then rang it.

I listened to Thomas's footsteps as they stepped closer to the bedroom door, then knock.

"Mistress?" he said.

"Entre."

Thomas stepped through the door, the laundry basket tucked under his arm. He looked as handsome as ever, and the scent of clean laundry filled the room. He shut the door behind him.

I lifted myself up on my shoulder.

"Thomas" I said with a grin to get his attention.

"Mistress," he breathed. He kept his eyes away from me, like the poor thing was too embarrassed to look at me in this state. "I...finished the laundry."

Oh, such sweetness.

"You can put it away later," I assured him. "Set it down and come here."

I motioned to him to him with one finger. And with that, he dropped the laundry basket and approached me. I imagined a string tied to his chest that I could pull him closer. Thomas pushed aside the bed curtains. His eyes landed on me, and upon realizing what I was wearing, shamefully turned his eyes to the book in my hands.

I chuckled.

"Not exactly something you'd find in a college English course" I said.

"Oh, it's nothing mistress" he said. "It's just...you're so brilliant...I figured...."

"Even the smartest and most successful woman like to indulge" I said. I picked a chcolate from the box. "Would you like one my pet?"

He gulped. "Yes, mistress."

I smirked, then sat up and leaned forward to me. I could see his eyes helplessly falling to my body, and he flushed. I loved doing this to him. Forcing him to act oblivious while salivating with lust. I pressed the chcolate into his mouth, and he closed his lips around it.

"It's good, isn't it?" I said. "You like it?"

He nodded with his mouth full. I picked another chocolate from the box, then lifted myself onto my knees so I could push it into his mouth. I too my time sliding the chcolate past his lips into the warm cavern of his mouth. His tongue licked around my finger as it was inside, and the sensation sent a warm titter in my stomach.
