Exquisite

Chapter Thirty One

Lena arrived at Precious Petals at 4.30pm. She opened the door and heard the chimes tinkle above her head as she stepped inside. She took a deep breath and looked around the familiar space. Everything looked the same but it wasn’t. The most important part of this place had gone, the heart. Catherine. Looking around she tried to recall a memory when she’d been in here and Catherine wasn’t. The only one she could come up with was when she’d gone to hospital that one time, and Mason had been here instead, but he wasn’t here either. She moved through the aisle and then saw Rachel step out from behind the back door.

“Lena.” she said smiling over at her. Not until this moment had Lena noticed how very alike mother and daughter had been. Rachel may have been on the loud side when it came to her hair and clothes but the warm smile and the shining eyes mirrored her mother. This was now the heart of the shop. Moving over to the counter Lena returned her smile and reached over to take her hands.

“Hi Rachel.”

“How are you?” she asked grinning. She had dimples just like her brother and Lena couldn’t help but smile back at her.

“I’m good. Busy at work but otherwise good.”

“You look great!” Rachel pointed out as she leaned over the counter looking her over. “Killer boots!”

Feeling a blush creep over her face Lena nodded. “Ahh thanks.” Pausing she hiked her bag up on her shoulder and asked, “So where are these papers you need me to sign?”

“Oh!” she said rushing back behind the door and coming out with a smile, “Yeah it’s a trip she left you part of this place right?”

Lena looked at Rachel quickly, wondering if she was upset about it, but then Rachel nodded. “But it makes sense, you were here more than us. Mom said you came in every night for years.”

Lena sucked in a breath not knowing what to say. She wasn’t aware that Rachel had even known about that. Rachel reached out and took her hand and squeezed her fingers between her own. Then in a voice far more serious than Lena had ever heard from her she said softly.

“Don’t worry. I never knew who you were, not until just recently. Mom use to tell me about a girl who came to her shop. I always thought it was so sad but mom told me she loved it when you’d visit. She looked forward to 5.30pm when you would stop by and pick out your sunflower. She told me how proud she was that you turned out to be an amazing doctor.” pausing Rachel looked her right in the eye and said on a soft whisper, “She loved you. You’re just as much a part of her as we are. She was so very proud of you and I’m so glad I got to meet you.”

Lena felt a tear run down her face as she stood in the store she once thought of as her safe haven and held the hand of someone she now considered her sister.

She arrived at his place at around 5.30pm. Rachel had given her the key and she’d made her way over quickly, wanting to be there before him. She let herself in and put her bag on the kitchen counter. Leaving the lights off she walked into the living room and turned on the lamp he had on a coffee table. It illuminated the room with a soft glow and she looked around at the familiar furniture. She was nervous.

Tonight was the first night in months where they would be together in what promised to be an intimate evening. After laying her heart on the line the other night all she could do was hope he’d managed to forgive her and try to convince him she was worth taking a chance on. Turning toward the window she moved over to it and looked down at the people walking by on the street. The sun was just starting to dip down below the horizon and the street lights were starting to blink on and as she stood at the large window she was reminded of a conversation they’d had many months ago. She’d been asking him for his ultimate fantasy, and although the answer he’d given her had confused her at the time and had not been what she wanted to hear, he’d told her and she’d listened, and tonight she would deliver.

Mason was almost home. He was so eager to get to her he’d missed half of the cab ride and when he finally got out on the corner where they guy dropped him he leaned over and paid then turned around intending to race down the street into his building and up the stairs. However, for some reason he stopped and looked up as he walked toward the entrance of his place and there she was. Standing in the window of his condo, illuminated by a soft glow, she stood at his window looking down at him. His eyes were glued to her. From where he was he could see she had on a short skirt, he was assuming the little mini and her hair was down and flowing over her shoulders. His eyes moved down and he could see those sexy boots just under her knees that wrapped around her calves and disappeared below the bottom of his window. She looked so unbelievably sexy standing there he felt his mouth fall open a little bit on a sigh. Her eyes were glued to his and even from this distance he could tell she was watching his every move.

She looked different to him tonight. It was as though he were looking up at a stranger in his house because it had been so long since he’d been able to touch her. Running a tongue over his bottom lip he watched her smile down at him with a sexy smirk then she raised a hand behind her skirt and moved it in an unzipping motion. Turning on those booted heels she looked over her shoulder and down through the window at him and winked before she slowly walked out of view. Holy shit, his fantasy had just come to life.

Lena had removed her skirt and top and all she wore now as she leaned back against Mason’s huge headboard were her thigh high boots. She’d arranged her hair so it was falling down over each shoulder and tickling her now hard nipples. Watching Mason in the street below she’d been so turned on she had been hard pressed to turn and walk away from the window but that was part of his fantasy, the stranger in the window who beckoned to him and he couldn’t touch.

If she calculated correctly it took him around six minutes to get to the front door. She heard the key push in and unlock. She smiled to herself when she heard the door slam and the keys get thrown either on the side table or the counter, she couldn’t tell. Then she waited breathing deeply, trying to keep herself under control as she watched the partition with wide eyes in the dim light. She’d only turned on a soft lamp in the bedroom and as she waited there on the bed she was starting to wish she’d left it off. However, that thought quickly disappeared when Mason finally stepped into the room and made his way over to the bed stopping at the foot of it. He was still dressed but had pulled his black work shirt out of his pants and he’d obviously started to undo the top few buttons. As he stood there looking down at her she could almost feel the path his eyes made as they traced every single line of her body that was now on very prominent display. She felt her thighs clench and herself dampen in between when his eyes scorched a trail up and over her hips to her navel then up past her breasts and finally those burning hot eyes landed on hers and pinned her to the bed.

“Hello Lena.”

Feeling his voice deep down inside her she slowly smiled and bravely raised one booted leg up so it was resting foot flat on the bed bending her knee and giving him a front row view to everything he was making her feel.

Holy fuck! Was Mason’s first thought as he watched Lena slide her booted foot up and rest it at an angle that showed him just how juicy she really was. He swallowed deeply as he looked at the woman lounging back on his bed, naked as the day she was born except for the thigh high boots, and whistled low.

“Langley.” she replied in a voice that was so low and husky it sounded as though she almost had a problem breathing. He knew how that felt, he thought, as he stood rooted to the spot trying to take her all in.

When he’d seen her in the window smiling and walking away all he could think about was getting upstairs and getting inside of her but now that he was here and she was laying there naked and vulnerable all he wanted to do was touch her so gently she would never forget it. Reaching out with his fingers he traced a circle around the boot that was still stretched out in front of him.

“You look really good lying there in my bed, Doctor.”

Looking up at him with heavy eyes she tilted her head and he watched her hair tickle down to sweep the underside of her breast and he groaned at the movement.

“Do I?”

“Yes you fucking do.” he replied and lean down to take the tab of the zipper on her boot and drag it down her calf.

“I thought you wanted my boots on?” she asked him. Raising his head from his task his eyes latched onto her questioning ones and he nodded.

“I did.” Pausing he leaned over and then bent down to drag his tongue down the strip of skin he’d revealed from behind the zipper. He heard her take in a deep breath and he moved back to grip the boot and tug it off, “But now I’ve changed my mind.”

Tossing the boot to the side he leaned over and grabbed her bent foot and tugged her down the bed a little which dragged her ass toward him and had her back flat in about ten seconds. He unzipped the second boot and tossed it to the floor then reached down grasping both ankles. Looking down at her his eyes stayed glued to hers as he kneeled down at the foot of the bed and tugged her closer to him. He heard her shriek and try to pull back but he was having none of it. With a hand clamped around both ankles he tugged her until her ass was at the edge of the bed and her legs were now hanging loosely over his shoulders. He could smell how turned on she was and he took a deep breath in then blew a hot warm breath out across her. She’d gotten up on her elbows and was looking down at him, kneeling at the end of the bed with her knees bracketing his ears and him grinning up at her with the most wicked smile he’d ever given.

“I decided I’d rather have your knees wrapped around my ears then your boots wrapped around my waist.”

Groaning she took a deep breath and watched as he leaned forward and dragged his tongue down the crease of her thigh and her hip. He heard her sob and then say his name on a moan. “Mason.”

He lifted his head and he knew his eyes had to be raging with lust because while he was kneeling in front of her fully dressed she was butt assed naked and spread open to him like a buffet. Right now he couldn’t possibly think of anything sexier.

“Yeah Lena?” he asked against her thigh nipping it with his teeth. She moaned in the back of her throat and let her elbows fall from beneath her and her back fell flat on the bed. He chuckled and she moaned again raising her hips toward his hot mouth.

“Please.” she begged and he finally took pity and leaned in nuzzling his nose in between her thighs were she was glistening and wet. She smelled amazing and he could have stayed there for hours happy to just be where he was, but she let out a piercing moan and reached down and gripped his hair and he figured it was time for some action. Opening his mouth his tongue snaked out and licked her from her swollen clitoris down through her wet folds the bottom where he flicked his tongue and she screamed out his name. He smiled against her and did it again.

Lena thought she was going to die. Was it possible to die from too much pleasure? She couldn’t believe she was lying down on Mason’s bed with her legs wrapped around his head while he buried his tongue deep inside her, all while he was still fully dressed. She arched her back up as his tongue found a particularly sensitive spot and she felt his hands come up and grip her ass hauling her hips up higher to him. Her cry pierced the air when she felt his lips suck one of her lips into his mouth and then when he let it go and moved to the other she cried out from the sheer pleasure that was racking her body. She knew she was gripping his hair too hard but as he stabbed into her with his wicked tongue she couldn’t even begin to care. Over and over he dragged that wet hard tongue back and forward against her swollen nub and then he finally took it between his lips and sucked her to the most amazing orgasm she’d ever had.

She screamed his name as her thighs tightened and her hands pulled at his hair and as she came down from her orgasmic bliss she felt her thighs relax and fall open in a most unlady like way. Finding the energy to raise her head and inch she looked down at the man kneeling between her thighs and he grinned up at her with the most unrepentant look. She couldn’t help but grin back. He lowered her legs gently so her feet were bent and touching the floor, then he stood up and removed his clothes. She was still spread across his bed naked but now she was relaxed and her body was open to him. Finally he moved down over her as naked as she was and rubbed his straining hard cock up against her belly. Grinning down over her he leaned in and kissed her and she found herself completely turned on by the taste of herself on his mouth.

“Think you can find the energy to scoot up the bed Doctor?”

She bit his bottom lip and watched his eyes darken and whispered against his mouth. “You pulled me down here.”

Nodding as he held himself over her he rubbed his now weeping cock against her stomach and replied on a strangled groan. “True. But now I need you to move up there so I can get in,” and he moved one hand down and trailed it between her thighs his fingers finding her and flicking over her slippery folds. She gasped and arched.

“So I can get in here. I need you to move up the bed Lena, so I can get in here.” he stressed again this time pushing a finger deep inside of her. She moaned parting her lips and he leaned down and ran a tongue along them tracing the bottom lip. With his hand still firmly between her thighs and his other holding him up above her, he looked down into her eyes and whispered. “You’re so beautiful.”

Smiling up at him her eyes flickered and then focused on him. She ground her hips up against his hand. “You don’t have to say things like that.”

He shook his head and lowered his lips against her mouth, “I mean it. You’re absolutely breathtaking.”

Closing her eyes Lena groaned as his fingers pulled out and she scooted up the bed with him crawling up over her and following her down. She blinked up at him as he lowered his body over hers and in the dim light he stroked her hair from her face and smiled down at her.

“I’ve missed this.” he said softly as he rocked his hips dragging his hard erection through her wet folds. She moaned against his mouth and blinked at him languidly. He breathed down against her lips then sucked her bottom lip into his and nudged his hips again making her eyes widen and focus on his. “I’ve missed you.”

She reached up with a hand and ran it over his cheek and then around to spread her fingers through his hair. Gripping it tightly she pulled him in close and rocking her hips up to meet his they started to move harder against one another enjoying the delicious friction. She whispered back softly. “I missed you to Mason. I love you.”

He reared his head and hips back then looking down at her he lined himself up against her hot wet folds and sunk deep down inside of her in one solid thrust. Groaning deeply he braced his arms on either side of her head and lowered himself down moving his hips and dragging his throbbing hardness in an out of her. She arched her back and thrust her hips up to meet his as he pistoned in and out.

She felt amazing, was the only thought in his mind. Every inch of her was tight, wet and hot as it gripped his aching erection. Cursing and squeezing his eyes shut he tried to keep some control but he knew it was no use, it had been to long and she felt too good as she moved under him gripping his ass in one hand and his hair with the other. She bit down on his ear and he arched his back groaning her name as he came deep inside of her. She wasn’t far behind clamping down around his cock as it throbbed its release into her. His mouth was close by her ear and when he heard her sigh and her body relax under him he leaned in and kissed her gently, whispering, “I love you too, Lena O’Donnell.”
