‘Rough stuff?’ she gasped, struggling to free her hands.
‘No,’ he said, stopping to stroke her cheek tenderly. ‘Never. I don’t want to hurt you, but I want you under me. Does that make me a Neanderthal in these sexually enlightened times?’
Izzie laughed. She took his hand and led him into the tiny living room. ‘I’m the sort of girl who goes on top.’
He hauled her close again. ‘Maybe the second time,’ he growled.
‘I’m not like other women,’ Izzie said. Still in his embrace, she managed to unwind her scarf and unbutton her coat. He ripped his coat off.
‘Never thought you were.’
‘So don’t tell me what to do or what not to do,’ she added.
‘Not even in bed?’
He was pulling his knotted tie loose and the sight of this normally buttoned-up businessman turning primeval made her weak at the knees.
‘Maybe in bed,’ Izzie teased, slipping her fingers down to untie the ribbons of her blouse. A complicated thing made of navy polka dot silk and laced up the front, it was the sort of garment that begged to be torn off. Joe’s eyes darkly followed her fingers as they loosened the navy ribbons.
‘I hope it’s not expensive,’ he said heavily, grabbing her again and pulling at the ribbons urgently, ripping the fragile fabric. Her full mouth caught his again, hot breath and hot tongues melding. He tasted like more. She wanted him like she’d never wanted anyone before.
Izzie felt every nerve ending on fire with desire. Her nipples were hard buds of lust and underneath her sedate pencil skirt she could feel her skin burning in its silken lingerie, wild to be set free and naked.
‘I can afford a new one,’ said Izzie, which wasn’t true, but now wasn’t the time to split dollars.
‘Good.’
He’d pulled the blouse apart, and his hands and mouth were roaming the soft skin of her breasts, kissing, licking and then sucking. Then his hands slid under the pencil skirt and his fingers cupped her pubic bone, making her feel the moisture pooling inside her.
Izzie groaned with pleasure. If this was her vaccination, then she wanted it to go on for a very long time.
She hadn’t shut the drapes and afterwards the lights of the city provided a gentle illumination for their crumpled bed. Joe lay propped up on her pillows, the sheets reaching up the muscled tan of his waist. Izzie lay on her side, head on her elbow, not quite looking at him but gazing away. It was an odd moment: at once both intimate and oddly formal.
Izzie, who’d had no difficulty sitting astride this man’s hips and letting him watch her face as she screamed with ecstasy, felt the awkwardness of afterwards. Suddenly she wondered how pure physical lust and attraction could make people do what they’d just done. There were so many things they didn’t know about each other. She didn’t know how he liked his coffee in the morning, the name of his first pet, did he love his mother?
None of that had mattered before. Now, the gap of that knowledge made what had gone before seem seamy, dirty. What was the protocol?
Thanks a million, honey: the money’s on the mantelpiece? It might be different for billionaires. The mink coat will be hiked over, sweetie, goodbye –
She shivered involuntarily. She’d never, ever wanted to be that sort of woman. And now, she was, wasn’t she?
‘I don’t suppose you have a cigarette?’ he asked.
‘I didn’t think you smoked,’ she said, surprised. Whatever she’d expected, it hadn’t been this.
‘I don’t. I quit ten years ago. But sometimes…’
‘Like when you’re in bed with women other than your wife?’ Izzie said, cut at the insinuation. ‘How many packs do you go through a month?’
‘None,’ he said, evenly. ‘Don’t be like that, Izzie.’
‘Like what?’
‘That.’
‘I can’t help it.’ She couldn’t. Now she’d crossed over to the other side, the side of loving him. Now he could hurt her and she felt naked, raw. She wanted to hurt first.
