Forbidden Touch: A Best Friends To Lovers Romance Iona Rose (best ebook reader for pc .txt) 📖

She looked so glorious with her big beautiful breasts swaying as she came down on my cock. Her pussy shuddered around my shaft and I had to distract myself to avoid coming too soon.

I inhaled deeply then forced myself to relax and concentrate on how gorgeous Brooke looked straddling me. I caressed her thighs softly and reached up to play with her nipples.

“Oh God…” Brooke panted.

“That good?” I teased her.

“Better,” she said.

I reached between us to stroke her clit. Her eyes widened. It felt good to know what I did to her. What I made her feel. I knew all her weak points and it didn’t take long before she was shuddering with her climax. I flipped us around again and arranged myself between her legs.

“I want more,” Brooke said.

“And I am going to give it to you,” I promised. My thrusts were easy at first but when Brooke’s hands squeezed my ass and pulled me closer with her thighs, I increased my speed. The sounds of our pleasure filled the room as the rest of the world faded away while Brooke and I lost ourselves in each other.

I rammed into her hard. Her fingers dug into my ass cheeks, urging me to thrust even deeper. She whimpered and I knew she was close to coming. I watched the pleasure on her face and I knew the exact moment when she orgasmed. “Fuck,” I groaned, unable to hold back my own release.

We lay side by side panting, waiting for our breathing to go back to normal.

“Are you going to spend the night?” I asked her later.

“I’d love to,” she said. “We have to make up for yesterday.” She drew imaginary lines on my chest.

“Good idea,” I said and ran my fingers lightly over her back and curvy ass.

“I love you Blaze,” she said softly. “Love as in love.”

All the air left my lungs. Unable to speak, I kissed her forehead and held her tight.

“I love you too,” I said a few minutes later when my powers of speech returned.

“I’m going to trust you,” Brooke stated.

“But I also want you to talk to me when you feel insecure,” I pleaded with her. “I’ll clear it up for you. I don’t want you to hurt for any reason.”

There would be issues down the road. That was how relationships worked. What mattered was how we handled those bumps. Would we run away from them and from each other or would we hold hands and go over them together?

I wanted Brooke to be my last girlfriend. I wanted her to be my wife.

She turned around and I did the same, spooning her. I inhaled her scent and smiled. This was as close to heaven as a man could get.

“Are you asleep?” she asked.

“Not a chance,” I answered. “You?”

“I’m just giving you time to recover,” Brooke joked.

“Giving me a chance to recover?” I asked her, laughter in my voice. “I’ll show you who needs to recover.” I reached under her armpits, to her sensitive spot and proceeded to tickle her.

“Blaze, stop it!” she cried.

The next moment, the sheets were a mess as we wrestled in bed, naked.

Chapter Twenty-Eight

Brooke

“What’s different about you?” Carol asked when she walked into the photocopy room clutching a file. “You’re positively glowing.”

I smiled. “Am I? Thank you.”

“Do tell,” she said as she dropped the file on a table. “I could do with a natural glow.”

I laughed. “There’s nothing, honestly.” It was probably all the sex Blaze and I were indulging in. I’d heard that being in love released feel good pheromones that did awesome things to your skin.

Carol looked around furtively even if it was just the two of us in the room. “Have you heard? Grace might not be coming back after she has her baby.”

Grace was the Assistant Finance Director, second only to Mason. If what Carol said was true, it meant that her position would be up for grabs. My hopes rose and then fell back down at the realization that Mason would have the final say. No way would I get that promotion. Not as long as Mason was the Finance Director.

“You could get it you know?” Carol said.

“So could you?” I countered. “You’ve been here the longest.”

She clapped her hands together. “I could but hey, I won’t hold it against you if you do. There’s Thomas too. It could be anyone. This is so exciting.”

I tried to inject some excitement in my voice. “It is,” I said and excused myself.

Back in my office, I kept thinking about the Assistant Finance Director Position. I allowed myself the luxury of fantasizing about it. If I miraculously got it, it would make such a difference in my life.

My dream had always been to own a string of real estate. The townhouse Blaze and I had bought was just the beginning. My grand plan was to supplement and eventually replace my salary with real estate. If I got the promotion, my plans would unfold a lot faster than I had anticipated.

Plans formed in my brain. I would build up my savings again. Take out a mortgage and in essence, own another house. My pulse quickened as I thought about it. I really, really wanted that promotion.

I forced myself back to work. Lunch came around and I went out with the girls as Blaze had a lunch time meeting with clients.

After lunch, my office phone rang and when I picked it, it was Mason, asking me to come to his office.

I strolled down the hallway to his office.

“He’s expecting you,” his secretary said.

One of the perks of an Assistant Finance Director was a secretary. I grinned as I entered Mason’s office, imagining myself with a secretary. It was a heady thought.

“That’s better,” Mason said smiling. “No man wants to see a sulky girl as you’ve been the last couple of weeks. I like it when you smile and even look pleased
