A/N: Entry for June Jukebox Scribbles over @societynsoelsscribbles
Prompt: June 30th - Don’t Speak - No Doubt / “Aren’t we?”
You stood in the low light of the hotel suite, your pulse still sharp from the high-stakes meeting. Specifically, from the tense moment you had dared to correct Nick in front of powerful men who were supposed to see you both as a united front.
Nick’s reflection appeared in the dark window pane, a looming, predatory shadow closing the distance behind you.
“You enjoyed that,” he murmured.
You lifted your chin, staring at his glass-bound gaze. “Enjoyed what, Nick?”
His mouth curved down near your ear, his warm breath sending a shiver through your hair. “You embarrassed me, sweetheart.”
His heavy hand settled at your waist. His voice was rough. When you didn't pull away, his fingers slid lower with dangerous patience, popping the button of your pants open.
“For someone so determined to fight me in public, you stand very still when I get close in private.”
Your hand flew down to catch his wrist, but you didn't actually push him away. His sharp smile brushed your flushed temple.
“Come on,” he coaxed, his tone soft enough to sound kind if you didn't know the monster beneath the suit. “We’re on the same side. Aren’t we?”
Nick’s hand slid beneath the lace of your underwear. Letting the pads of his fingers graze over your dripping heat, a torturous tease that made your knees weak. His middle finger coaxed its way to your swollen clit, circling it, sending electric sparks straight to your core.
You let out a shaky, broken breath.
“Maybe I’m reconsidering my position,” you voice strained.
Nick’s free hand slid up to your throat. He increased the friction, a slow, heavy grind that promised everything and gave nothing, pressing harder.
“Is that so?” he breathed against your sensitive collarbone. “Then tell me exactly whose side you’re on.”
