Lexi wandered through the house, taking in the opulent decor. Everything was sleek, modern...a testament to Reg's wealth. But as she turned a corner, she found herself in front of a door that made her heart race. Reg's bedroom.
Taking a deep breath, Lexi pushed open the door. The room was stunning, the walls a soothing blue with gold trim. The bed was massive, covered in plush linens. And as she turned to take it all in, Lexi saw him.
Reg stood in the doorway, a towel wrapped low around his hips. His chest was bare, his muscles on full display. And as his eyes locked onto hers, Lexi felt a shiver run down her spine.
"Do you know why I find you intriguing, Lexi?" he asked, his voice low and husky. He strode towards her, his movements predatory. "Because unlike other women, you're not easy. You make me enjoy the hunt."
Lexi felt a flutter in her chest at his words. Maybe this was all just a game...but she was ready to play. And as Reg stopped in front of her, his eyes burning with desire, Lexi realized she was ready to take the next step.
"I thought we could do a little more than just kissing," he said, his voice a sultry promise. His hands found her hips, his touch sending shivers through her. And as he leaned in, his mouth inches from hers, Lexi knew she was in trouble.
"Is that what you want, Lexi?" he rasped, his voice low and husky. "Do you want to take this to the next level?"
Lexi felt her breath catch, her heart pounding against her ribs. Maybe this was a game...but it was one she was ready to win. And as she looked up at Reg, she saw the burning desire in his eyes...and knew she was ready to take a chance on him.
"On that, Reg," she said, her voice a sultry promise. "We'll just have to agree to disagree."
Reg's eyes burned into hers, a smile spreading across his face. "I think that can be arranged," he said, his voice full of amusement. And with that, he was on her, his mouth finding hers.
Lexi felt a flutter in her chest as Reg's hands found her hips. He was so close, his body pressing hers against the wall. And as his mouth found hers, his kiss a hungry demand, Lexi realized she was in trouble.
She was getting lost in his touch, her desire rising to meet his. His hands roamed down her body, his touch sending shivers through her. And as his fingers found the hem of her dress, Lexi knew she was in danger of losing all control.
With a gasp, Lexi fell back onto the bed, Reg coming down on top of her. His body was heavy, his weight pressing her into the mattress. But as he looked down at her, his eyes burning with desire, Lexi realized she didn't want him to move.
"You could rip my heart from my chest," Reg whispered, his breath a scorching caress against her ear. "And I'd still adore you."
Lexi felt a shiver run down her spine at his words. No one had ever spoken to her like that before. No one had ever made her feel so...wanted. And as she looked up at Reg, she saw the burning desire in his eyes...and knew she was in trouble.
