“Helping—”
“Mentoring—”
“Him and no other man is to be around you—”
“I was never alone with Dima. Duck, and Hu were near.”
Lei finally closed his mouth.
“You’ve been out for five days, Lei. The East still needed leadership. And Dima. . .he’s been there to help me navigate things while you’ve been recovering.”
“Help you navigate things?” His tone darkened, the dangerous undercurrent was unmistakable.
I molded my breasts against him. “He’s guided me on decisions I had to make. I’ll update you on everything, but trust me, no one could ever take your place.”
His lips curved into a faint smirk but the possessiveness in his eyes didn’t fade. “I love Dima, but I don’t like the idea of him being too comfortable with you.”
“He knows that which is why he’s been respectful and helpful. Plus, Rose is dope and usually is with us when he is helping.”
“Hmmm.”
“Anyway. . .I told Dima everything. He was super excited about TT’s results, so. . .then I asked Dima to help.”
“What exactly is Dima supposed to do?”
“Rose and he are coming to dinner tonight to talk to her, which is great since you’re back.”
He rolled his eyes. “Yay.”
“TT needs someone who isn’t Jo or me telling her it’s going to be okay, so you should talk to her too.”
“I will.” He studied me, and his expression was unreadable. “Dinner will be good. I needed to talk to Dima anyway.”
“About?”
“That’s a long conversation, but we’ll discuss it.”
“Good.”
“Anymore updates on my sisters?”
I smiled. “No, but your aunts put Song and his monks in the dungeon. They’re waiting for you to decide how long Song and them will serve time for helping your father. There’s also things in the East like—”
“The East can wait.” Fast, he returned his hands to my panties, diving his fingers in and playing with my pussy. “This is more important.”
It felt so good that I couldn’t stop him.
“Damn it, Lei.”
His touch was relentless, demanding and intoxicating all at once. The world outside our little cocoon ceased to exist; there was only Lei and the fiery passion that threatened to consume us both.
The way he controlled my body was nothing short of masterful. Every stroke of his fingers brought me closer and closer to the precipice.
His free hand slid under my gown and up my body, cupping my breast.
Then, he brushed his thumb over my hardened nipple.
Hell yes.
