Be My Queen (The Crown Duet Book 2)

need to tell her twice. Her eyelids flickered, opening to show me her gorgeous blue eyes. I wanted her to look at me, watch me. Watch who was making her body feel this pleasure. I needed the satisfaction of knowing that tonight when she crawled into bed, my face would be the one she saw.
“I’m close, I need you there with me baby.” My breath hit the skin on her breast before I stole her nipple into my mouth. She squeaked in response, moaning as the walls of her pussy clamped down around me. Her orgasm hit suddenly, her body convulsing around me, tipping me over the edge as I chased my own ecstasy.
We rode the wave together, groaning at the feel of her weight in my arms. She moaned my name and I groaned as my release filled her.
As I finally caught my breath, her pussy quaked once more. I waited a minute as Ana caught up. I watched, like a predator as her heavy breathing lifted her chest, taunting me with its rosy peaks. Slowly I pulled out and tucked myself back into my jeans. I hated the feeling of that lost connection immediately. I fixed her panties back into place and pulled her bra and top up to cover herself.
A small smile graced her lips as she gazed at me. The look of pure happiness on her face had me returning her smile. Arms still wrapped around her, I kissed her with all my might. With this one kiss, I wanted to convey all the emotion she stirred up in me. The love, anger, jealousy, lust - everything. “I love you,” I whispered against her lips.
“I love you too. I promise I’ll come home to you.”
“You know I’m only here to look out for you, right?”
“I know. It’s what you do. You’re my protector, and I’d be lost without you, Nikolai.”
I held her in my arms a few minutes longer, not wanting the moment to end. Because when it did, I knew I’d have to let her go and continue down whatever path she was on. This was an unexpected detour but unfortunately, it didn’t change her direction.
When I dragged Anastasia off the street, this wasn’t what I’d been expecting. Mainly I just wanted to talk to her about the fucking date she’d just been on.
Oh shit. She’d just been on a date with her arranged fiancé. I felt smug, I would’ve loved to laugh in his preppy face. She was my little minx.
I’d forgotten that Anastasia didn’t know that I was still in the city. Oh well, I supposed my cover was definitely blown. And it was a good job I stayed too. A knock out like her walking the streets late at night, that was just asking for trouble. She was just lucky I found her first.
“Please. No more walking around late at night by yourself.”
“Nikolai, you worry too much. Besides, I doubt there’s anyone scarier than you roaming these streets.” Her smirk is the devil’s kiss. Like I said, she was my little minx. “And now that I know you’re following me; I have no motivation to listen to a word you say.”
I growled in response, dropping her legs and eliminating any space between us. My lips took hers and dominated them. The disobedient glimmer in her eye had my erection coming back with a striking fury. The thought of punishing that smart mouth of hers was all that was needed to rev my engine.
Ana laughed as she pushed at my chest. “I have to go. Rachel and Kaleb are going to wonder where I am.”
“At the least let me give you a ride.” I didn’t wait for her refusal and instead walked to my truck parked across the street pulling her along behind me. I opened the passenger door and watched as she climbed in, clutching her skirt in her hand. She caught me checking out her ass and scowled playfully. I winked in response before rounding the hood and jumping in behind the wheel.
I pumped the gas and took off towards the Varela house. I drove as slowly as I could without making it obvious. I didn’t want to let her go. Unfortunately, we weren’t far and it only took minutes before we were turning onto their street.
Pulling over a few blocks down, I basked in the knowledge that at least Ana was safe here. She was a smart woman; I was sure that whatever she had up her sleeves she’d be able to take care of herself. And if not, she knew where I was.
“I still have my phone; I’ll turn it back on. I promise to call you if I need you but you need to back off. Please, go get some rest tonight.” Anastasia’s hand stroked my cheek. It was a tender moment, one that made my heart ache.
I nodded, “Okay.” She pressed a soft kiss to my lips, a goodbye pushing open the door and walking away. I watched her go until she disappeared past her family's gated driveaway. Starting the truck, I drove by slowly to make sure she made it inside before driving off. I felt somewhat better knowing that she would reboot her phone. If she needed me, she would call. And I’d be here for her.
But for tonight I’d shower, shave and rest peacefully.

Good morning Minx ;) x - N
“Are you ready to head out?” Kaleb asked as he reentered the room. I suddenly had no desire to shadow him for the day. And this was exactly the issue with Nikolai being around — because I knew he was close by he was all I could think about. This was yet another reason, I didn’t leave a note when I left his house that morning. You leave any crumbs and a man will sniff them out.
When he’s around, he clouds my mind. How the hell am I supposed to get the job done if he’s all
