Teased (The VIP Room, #1) (14 page)

“
You idiot.” Vida hit him with her
fists. Colton caught her hands in his then raised them above her
head laying them on the pillow. Taking both her wrists into one of
his, he laughed harder at her expression before becoming
serious.

“
You woke me up crying for Sawyer and
Callie. I couldn’t get you to stop crying so I brought you in here.
It took awhile, but you finally managed to go back to sleep. You
don’t remember?”

Vida shook her head against the pillow. “All
I remember is dreaming about the night Callie died.”

“
Poor baby.” Colton’s mouth dropped to
nuzzle her neck.

“
Colton, you can let me up. Don’t you
need to get to work?” Vida reminded him.

“
In a minute.” Colton raised his head,
staring down intently into her eyes.

He lowered his lips until they rested gently
against hers. Vida tensed underneath him.

“
Relax,” Colton murmured against her
lips.

“
I can’t.” Vida tried to turn her head
away, but Colton took advantage of her parted lips, deepening the
kiss.

His kiss went from gentle to firmly taking
control as he slipped his tongue into the warm moistness of her
mouth. As Colton explored her mouth, Vida gradually began to
respond, pressing her lips back against his, her tongue seeking
his.

His hands released hers, and at first, Vida
didn’t move them then she lowered them until they lay against his
shoulders, trying to decide whether to push him away or pull him
closer. However, Colton’s tongue, thrusting in erotic movements,
had her arms circling his neck and pulling him closer. Decision
made as her fingers twined into his long hair.

Colton broke the kiss to glide towards her
neck, taking detours here and there, exploring her soft flesh with
nips and licks.

His chest lowered to hers, flattening her
breasts against his chest. Her leg curled around his hip, pulling
him against her. Colton took command, tilting her face back, his
mouth returning to her lips, demanding more of a response from her.
Vida almost baulked, but gave in to the pleasure of his heated
kiss, becoming lost in passionate surrender.

His hand slid to her stomach and without
hesitance slid inside her sweat pants. Vida felt his fingers glide
through her moist cleft. Startled she tried to jerk her mouth and
hips away, but Colton held her steady, his fingers not moving to
enter her, only softly stroking to heighten her desire.

Vida was torn between wanting him to stop
and for him to keep going. His fingers began rubbing her sensitive
flesh harder, swirling the sensitive bud in a motion that had her
jerking her hips, this time to follow his movements. Her leg wound
around his waist harder. Small moans began to escape her mouth,
which was trapped under his. Her hips wiggled closer towards his
hard body that was pinning her down to the bed. A finger slightly
entered her moist sheathe. Vida thought she would lose her mind at
the pleasure when it sank deeper inside of her.

Colton raised his mouth from hers. Her
passion glazed eyes closed at seeing the desire blazing from his
eyes.

“
What do you need, baby?”

“
More,” she said, unable to prevent
the word from escaping her mouth.

“
I can give you more.” He inserted
another long finger, keeping his palm pressing down on her clit.
Vida began moving her hips back and forth, her hands grasping his
shoulders. Her movements driving Colton’s fingers higher inside her
pussy.

His mouth went to her ear. “You’re so tight.
I can feel you’re a virgin, Vida, right against my fingers.” Vida
felt his thumb slowly moving more seductively against her. “Have
you ever let anyone play with this pretty, little pussy
before?”

Vida tried to jerk her hips away, but Colton
held her still with his chest and his palm pushing against her
mound while his fingers kept up their torturous pumping.

“
Answer my question.” Colton’s firm
voice demanded an answer.

“
No,” she said, trying to catch her
breath.

“
Your breasts? Have you let anyone
suck on these pretty pink nipples?” he asked, nuzzling down into
the gap her pajama top provided until he found her nipple, his
tongued playing with it, turning the nub into a hardened
point.

Vida moaned, wanting to stop, but also
wanting more of him.

“
You’re going to like this, Vida.
You’re going to like this a lot.” Colton’s mouth latched onto her
nipple while his fingers drove into her faster and
faster.

Vida felt the pressure of a build up and
slight pain with each thrust of his fingers as they butted up
against her innocent flesh, until she was brought to a sudden
climax. The spasms took control of her, forcing a shrill scream
from her tight throat. Her body stiffened as she felt the loss of
complete control to a pleasure she had never experienced
before.

Colton rose above her, removing his hand
from her warmth before pulling her pants back up and lowering her
top until she was covered once again.

Vida lay stunned, wanting desperately to
cry. She jackknifed straight up, startling Colton, and tried to
jump from the bed. An arm around her waist stopped her, jerking her
back as he leaned against the headboard and placed her effortlessly
on his lap facing him.

“
Where are you going?” Vida saw the
amusement in his face, wanting to die of embarrassment.

“
To the bathroom,” Vida said in a
strangled voice.

“
You couldn’t just tell me that
instead of jumping out of bed like you saw a giant spider?” Colton
looked at her quizzically.

“
I need to go to the bathroom,” Vida
told him, trying to get off his lap.

Colton held her still with his hands on her
hips. “In a minute.” His hands slipped to her ass, adjusting her
until he notched her pussy against his cock where thankfully, Vida
noticed, he had on a pair of sweat bottoms.

She had a terrible feeling she didn’t want
to hear what he was about to say.

“
Why are you still a virgin, Vida? No
boyfriends in high school or college?” he questioned.

Vida was right; she didn’t want to hear his
questions, much less answer them. Her lips tightened.

“
It’s none of your business,” she
finally answered.

“
Yes, it is, since I’m the one going
to take it,” he said casually.

“
No, you’re not,” Vida
snapped.

“
Yes, baby, I am.” He lifted his
pelvis until she could feel his hard cock against her folds. Desire
threatened to rise again and Vida felt herself begin to want
him.

Vida shook her head. He was everything she
didn’t want in a man, everything she had sworn never to become
attached to. Yet, he was sitting there, thinking he was going to
take from her a gift that she had planned on keeping for someone
special for years.

“
No, you won’t. I have saved myself
for the man I fall in love with, which is not you, nor will it ever
be you. I won’t be like my mother, falling in love with one man
after another, losing a piece of herself after each one. Do you
know how many dads she brought home? Introduced me to? Each one she
was sure was going to put that ring on her finger and make all her
dreams come true. They never did, each one slept with her and used
her until they were satisfied then they left her crying. She would
cry for days, until she met the next one and fell just as
hard.

“
I am going to save myself for one
man. A man who I know is going to love me as much as I love him,
and won’t leave me for the next piece of pussy he sees. He will be
as committed to me as I am to him. That will not be you, you’re a
horn dog, and you’re married!” she yelled.

Colton rose up from his relaxed position,
bringing his chest against hers.

“
The only man that is going to be
between your thighs is me. I am going to take that sweet little
cherry of yours and make it mine. You made yourself so many
promises when you were a little girl there’s no way you can keep
them all. You’re not a little girl anymore, Vida. You’re a woman
and you’re going to want my cock in you. You’re going to want it
all the time.” Leaning back against the headboard again, he gave
her a tender smile. “If you’re a good girl, I’ll give it to you any
time you want. If you’re not, I’ll make you beg for it.” He gave
her an arrogant smile that Vida had to restrain herself from
knocking off him with the fist clenched at her side.

“
You ass!” Vida moved to jump off him,
and this time he let her go with a laugh.

“
You better hurry up; we’re late.”
Colton’s voice followed her into the bathroom. She made sure to
slam the door loud enough for him to hear.

Chapter 12

The tattoo shop managed to keep everyone
busy, which made it easy for Vida to ignore Colton.

The door opening had Vida glancing up to see
one of Colton’s fuck buddies coming through the door.

“
Does Colton have an opening?” she
questioned.

“
Yes, he does.” Vida gave Tessa the
client she had scheduled for Colton, penciling in Wanda for his
next job.

“
Have a seat; he’ll call you when he’s
ready for you.”

“
Thanks.” The girl smiled at her as
she took a seat.

Tessa came out, ignoring Vida as she looked
through the appointment book. Vida knew the exact moment Tessa
noticed she had given her Colton’s next client.

“
Why did you give me Colton’s client?
I should have the client you gave him,” Tessa questioned her
sharply.

Vida pointed to Wanda. “She requested
Colton. The client I gave you didn’t. Colton said I should try to
fill requests if it was possible.”

“
She requested Colton?” Her gaze
sharpened on Wanda.

“
Yes, she did.” Tessa’s face turned
red as she snapped out the name of her client. She stood, talking
to him about which tat he wanted for several minutes, her eyes
never leaving the other woman who was becoming uncomfortable under
Tessa’s hateful glare.

Tessa gave the client directions to her room
then walked over to Wanda. Vida sat, watching the oncoming
confrontation, debating if she should get Colton to mediate.

“
My husband will be with you in just a
few minutes. He was almost done when I came out.” Tessa’s fake
politeness didn’t fool Vida, but it succeeded with
Wanda.

“
Your husband? Colton didn’t tell me
he was married.”

Tessa smiled in satisfaction. “We’ve been
married four years.”

Wanda rose angrily to her feet, returning to
the counter.

“
Cancel my tattoo; I don’t have the
time to wait.” Wanda left without waiting for a reply from
Vida.

Tessa didn’t try to hide the vindictive
smile on her face as she left to finally get started on her waiting
customer.

Colton and his client came out then, talking
with Reverend.

“
Did you take a picture of it? That
one needs to go on the wall,” Reverend said, taking a seat next to
Vida.

“
Took one in the room,” Colton said
absently, gazing down at the appointment book with a
frown.

“
Next time, Colton.” The client waved
as he left.

“
Later, Kyle.” Turning to Vida, he
asked, “What happened to Wanda? I see her name marked
out.”

Vida shrugged innocently. “She waited for a
while then said she couldn’t wait any longer.”

Reverend called his next client, looking at
Vida and Colton quickly before escorting his client to his
room.

Colton pulled out his cell, moving away from
the counter as new clients came in the door. Vida fit them into the
schedule, having to turn a few away for the moment and rescheduling
those, while watching Colton as he talked on the phone. His
expression becoming angry. He ended the call, striding furiously
from the room.

Vida sat tensely behind the counter,
becoming even more nervous when she heard raised voices from the
back. A sudden loud noise sounded before Tessa came running out.
Leaving the shop without a word.

The clients in the waiting area sat staring
at one another until Colton returned.

“
Who’s my next client?” he asked
grimly. Vida pointed to a heavyweight man sweating profusely.
Colton called the man’s name. She listened as the man described the
tattoo he wanted that would take several visits. Colton led him
away as Vida made future appointments to complete the desired
tattoo.

Tessa reappeared with a cup of coffee,
giving everyone the silent treatment for the rest of the day.
Colton and Reverend worked without taking a break as Tessa got her
revenge by taking huge amounts of time between clients. When the
door closed at the end of the day, both men looked exhausted.

“
You and Tessa need to get your shit
straight, and you need to hire another artist. Word is out that
you’re out of prison. We can’t do our best work if we keep pushing
it with customers.”

“
I’ll look around for another artist.
The divorce will be final next week. Once Tessa realizes it’s a
done deal, she’ll settle down or I’ll fucking fire her.”

Reverend looked skeptical, but didn’t argue.
“I’m going home to call a bitch to come and massage me down.”
Turning to Vida, he gave her a wink. “Unless you want to come home
with me then I’ll give you the massage.”
