Abandonment

Caleb’s POV

I had barely initiated the encrypted video conference with our Shanghai money laundering contacts when I noticed Ivy slipping through my private office door, the lock clicking decisively behind her. My attention immediately shifted from the financial reports on screen to the silver tray in her hands, complete with steaming espresso and that rich tiramisu I’d surprised her with this morning. My pulse quickened as understanding dawned. She was orchestrating another one of her calculated distractions, wasn’t she?

My mind flashed back to when she’d executed a similar maneuver during a crucial territorial negotiation call with the international mafia families. The memory of watching her pleasure herself while I struggled to maintain my authoritative composure during discussions of protection rackets still made my blood surge with dangerous heat.

She approached with that deceptively innocent smile, the one that invariably spelled catastrophe for my legendary self–control. Setting the tray beside my encrypted laptop, she poured the espresso with deliberate, theatrical precision. When she “accidentally” dropped the cloth napkin, bending to retrieve it with an exaggerated arch that showcased every curve beneath her fitted dress, I recognized exactly what deadly game we were entering.

The sight of her body outlined perfectly against the expensive fabric made my reaction immediate and overwhelming. Heat coiled low in my stomach as my focus completely abandoned the recent laundering reports being discussed through the secure connection.

This time, I refused to let her leave me burning with frustrated desire. While she moved to the opposite side of my mahogany desk, lifting the dessert plate with theatrical innocence, I grabbed my encrypted phone and sent a rapid message to Xavier.

“Technical difficulties on the Don’s end. Handle the territorial discussion solo

for now.”

His response arrived instantly with a simple acknowledgment. I switched off my camera and muted my microphone, leaving only the audio feed active so I could monitor the money laundering negotiations without active

participation.

Ivy’s first message arrived moments later, accompanied by her taking a deliberately slow bite of the Italian dessert. “This tiramisu is absolutely exquisite.”

I typed back swiftly, “Nothing could taste sweeter than you.”

Her emerald eyes met mine across the desk, blazing with that familiar mischievous fire. She closed her eyes as she savored another bite, releasing a soft sound of appreciation that made my tailored pants feel uncomfortably restrictive. This woman understood exactly how to unravel the feared Don of the Thorne family, and she was savoring every second of her power over me.

The wicked smile spreading across her lips confirmed my suspicions completely. She set the plate aside and leaned back in the leather chair that had belonged to my murdered father. With agonizing deliberation, she lifted each leg to rest on the chair arms, revealing her complete lack of undergarments beneath the expensive dress.

My fingers moved across the phone screen with practiced efficiency. “When did you decide to go without panties in my father’s chair today?”

She read the message, her smile widening as she shook her head and responded with obvious challenge. “Thought I’d save you the trouble of shredding another expensive pair. Getting costly to replace the designer lingerie you keep destroying.”

Despite the fire building in my veins, I had to suppress a dark chuckle. I sent back, “But tearing expensive lace off your body is half the pleasure.”

Ivy was clearly relishing this power dynamic in my private domain. After

reading my response, she typed back with unmistakable defiance in her expression. “I was planning a private show for the Don of this family, but if you prefer, I can return to the family quarters and dress more appropriately.”

She wasn’t retreating from this confrontation, not after igniting such dangerous hunger in me. My reply was immediate and commanding. “Are you really going to start something in my territory that you can’t finish?”

The spark in her green eyes told me I’d struck the perfect note of dominance. She tossed her phone onto the antique desk and wasted no time escalating our private war. Her hands moved to the neckline of her dress, pulling the fabric down to expose her breasts completely. One hand traveled between her legs while the other cupped and massaged her exposed flesh with deliberate provocation.

The sight of her pleasuring herself while I sat trapped in crucial family business negotiations was almost beyond my legendary control. I found myself straining against the confines of my expensive suit, desperate for relief from the building pressure. Her fingers worked in slow, tormenting circles, dipping lower before returning to tease and stroke with maddening precision.

Her face was flushed with mounting arousal, lips parted as she lost herself in the sensations building within her body. When she slipped a finger inside herself with a soft gasp, my iron restraint finally shattered completely. I pushed back from the desk and crossed to her chair, spinning it to face me directly in one swift movement.

The momentary confusion in her eyes as I abandoned the family business call was quickly replaced by complete understanding. I stood before her, her fingers still moving between her legs in slow rhythm, and freed myself from my pants with quick, efficient movements. Leaning down with my hands braced on the chair arms that had once supported my father’s authority, I whispered against her ear with deadly softness, “This time the Don isn’t just watching his queen.”

I gently removed her hand and replaced it with my mouth, tasting her

building arousal with hungry intensity. The sweetness was more intoxicating than any fine wine in my private collection. “Definitely sweeter than anything I’ve ever tasted,” I murmured against her heated skin.

I positioned myself at her entrance, sliding along her wetness in the same maddening rhythm her fingers had maintained. She was burning hot and completely ready, her body responding to every touch with soft gasps and tremors of anticipation.

“Tell me what you want, Ivy, I demanded with quiet authority, continuing to tease without giving her what she desperately craved.

“Caleb, your family business,” she protested weakly between increasingly desperate moans.

“Forget the business. What does my queen want?” I pulled back slightly, making her chase the contact with obvious need.

“Don’t stop,” she breathed with surrender. “I want you completely.”

“You have me. What else?” I maintained the maddening pace that brought her close but never quite enough.
