The CEO's Regret: Darling, Don’t Leave Me novel Chapter 63

CHAPTER 41: TICKLE WARS AND WET MORNINGS–2

“Most men lark vision” Elis hand slide down to cup my ass, squeezing once. “I prefer to start my mornings with purpose.”

“And your purpose this morning was…?”

“Making you come before you could overthink it.” He tilts his head, pretending to consider. “Making you forget your own name. Making you make that sound you made when I-

I clap my hand over his mouth. “I did not make a sound.”

He licks my palm.

“Gross!” I yank my hand back, laughing, and he uses the distraction to roll us, pinning me beneath him with

absolutely no effort.

His weight settles between my thighs and I can feel him hard against me, gloriously thick, and my body

g his way down my body now, clearly intent on round two, and my resolve is wet sand. “Clothes are overrated. Responsibilities are overrated. Everything that isn’t e up my inner thigh, “-is deeply, tragically overrated.”

“You’re ridiculous” I tell him, but I’m also spreading my thighs wider, so my credibility is somewhat compromised.

He laughs against my skin, warm breath and genuine amusement, and something in my chest tightens at

the sound.

I’ve seen Knox smirk. I’ve seen him smile in that cold way he deploys. I’ve seen him chuckle with the

restraint fitting a king.

I’ve never seen him laugh like this–free and real and directed at me like I’m the source of his happiness.

It’s dangerous. It makes me feel things I shouldn’t be feeling.

And then his fingers find my ribs.

The shriek that comes out of me is completely undignified.

“NO-” I thrash, trying to escape, but he’s faster and stronger and apparently also evil incarnate.

His fingers dig into my sides, finding every ticklish spot with unerring accuracy, and I’m suddenly laughing so hard I can’t breathe, batting at him uselessly while he grins like the devil himself.

“Didn’t know you were ticklish,” he says, absolutely delighted by this discovery. “This changes everything.* “I hate you-” I gasp between shrieks, “-I hate you so much-”

“You really don’t.” He finds a spot beneath my arm that makes me howl. “Your body tells a very different story, sweetheart.”

I manage to grab a pillow and swing it at his head with all the force I can muster.

He catches it, yanks it from my grip, throws it across the room like it personally offended him.

“That was my weapon!”

“You’re going to need a better strategy.” He’s stalking up my body now, predatory and playful, and the combination is doing things to me that shouldn’t be legal. “I’m highly trained in pillow combat.”

“Is that what they teach at Lycan King school?”

“First semester.” He pins my wrists above my head and I use the moment to hook my leg around his hip

and roll.

It shouldn’t work–he’s twice my size and infinitely stronger–but he lets it happen, lets me flip us, and suddenly I’m straddling his chest.
