Tiger Billionaire's Virgin Lover #1: Desires Read online

  “Sarah?”

  “Yes.”

  “Tell me about yourself, I feel as if I would really like to know all about you.”

  So much for the hot sex that he had just given me, and the warm after glow. The moment that he heard that I had come in for an interview, that would be the end of all the fun tonight. If only he had asked me in the morning and not so soon after getting the most precious and memorable feeling given to my body. I pushed away from him, sitting up and facing him. It was time to own up to the truth, which I should have told him before any of this had happened.

  “I came here looking for work.” His hand stopped stroking her thigh.

  “What, but I thought that you were…”

  Definitely the brunette who had been escorted out.

  “You thought I was what?”

  “Never mind, I just thought that you were somebody else,” he said.

  “Well, I snuck up to your penthouse suite hoping to get an interview, since you had postponed it, and I know very well that on Monday the new candidate starts working,” I said to him.

  “Hmm, it looks like somebody did their research pretty well. Why didn’t you tell me right from the start what your ambitions were?” Erik said, looking at me skeptically.

  I preferred the hot looks that he had given me earlier. “I tried to, but you didn’t give me the chance to talk.”

  He slid his legs off the bed and combed his fingers through his hair. “So, did you get the interview that you came for?”

  “I don’t know, you are the only one who can be the judge here,” I said to him.

  His eyes travelled over my body in a sort of irritating way, but it only seemed to have the opposite effect on me. My nipples hardened into sharp points as his gaze swept over my breasts. I got off the bed and pushed past him, going in search of my clothes.

  “Where are you going?” he asked, getting up.

  I leaned down and reached for my skirt and as I stood up, he was standing directly infront of me, blocking my way. “I'm going home.”

  “Why so soon?”

  “Because I think this interview is over…” I said, trying to push past him, but he did not budge.

  “Wait, Sarah.”

  “What do you want, Erik?”

  “I want you to stay with me,” he answered, taking a hold of my hands.

  “Why?”

  “I really don’t know, because I should be kicking you out right now, employer and employee don’t really make good bed fellows.”

  Well, that hadn’t stopped him from taking her to bed, and then again, he had not known that I was here to look for a job. “Well, I'm still wondering why you want me to stay.”

  “Like I said earlier, I really have no idea. I probably want to know you better because I sort of like you. Please spend the weekend with me.”

  I felt my throat going as dry as the desert as I listened to him. “Did you say the weekend?”

  “Yes, spend the weekend with me. I have a ranch in the Poconos and I would love it if you accompanied me there,” he said, looking me deeply in the eyes and making me weak.

  This looked like the opportunity of a lifetime and I did not know whether I could turn his offer down.

  “The trip however, will be off the record, because you are hired and I wouldn’t want a sexpose to ruin our reputations.”

  As if I would even dare talk about my intimate sex life with just anybody. Erik had just given me the best loving that any man ever would, and I wanted him again. Spending the whole weekend with him was sure going to contain a lot of sex scenes. I could call my dad and tell him that I have been hired and have gone out on a working weekend.

  “I’ll think about it,” I said trying to sound as if I was just accompanying him, no feelings involved.

  I was definitely going.

  Chapter 4

  “Are you out of your mind? Do you realize that she is a human and could find out about you? About all of us?” Earl ranted into the cell phone.

  I am aware of the complexities of the situation,” Erik said into the phone, knowing that Sarah was seated just inches away from him in the limo.

  “You are aware and yet you are taking her to Pennsylvania with you? You have got to be out of your mind, Erik.”

  “As a matter of fact, I am, Erik said calmly into his cell phone.

  “Well, at the end of the day, you are the alpha and so I would like to think that you know what you are doing,” Earl sighed with resignation. “Don’t say that I didn’t warn you, because I still think that it is a bad idea.

  “Point noted.”

  Erik hung up the phone, hoping that Earl was not right. Glancing over at Sarah, she was biting her lower lip in a way that made him wish that he was the one doing it for her, licking her lips and proceeding to do other things from there. He felt himself getting hard, and wondered how a woman dressed in tight jeans and a silk blouse could get him so hot.

  Her blouse hugged her breasts in a sexy way, and her jeans also hugged her body, showcasing her hips. The tightness showed of her thighs and her long legs, and as he remembered the way that her soft skin felt against his, Erik wanted to strip her down and make love to her right there in the limo.

  From the way that he felt about her, Erik was pretty sure that she was the right woman for him, human or not. It was a gut feeling that he could not control.

  How could he feel like this about her when she did not even know that he was a tiger shifter? What would she do if she found out what he was? Would she run? Stay? Go and announce to the whole of the human race that tiger shifters existed? The ‘what ifs’ were so many, ringing in his head. It would be a great thing to spend the weekend with her, relaxing and getting to know her better, then maybe he would tell her the scary truth.

  Sarah was going to help him to build the Dken dynasty. The Dken shifters had existed for centuries, and there were many other shifter families out there. Erik hoped that once he was in power, he would find a way to change the laws so that they protected his kind in the same way that human beings were protected and absorbed into society. That was one of the chief reasons that he was going into politics. For now, though, society was just not ready for his kind and so they would have to be patient.

  Erik hoped that they would have time to drop by his parent’s house in Boston, although it did not feel like the right occasion for it. He wondered what his parents would think of Sarah. His brothers, Alex, Barry and Robert would probably be skeptical about the whole thing, while his parents and sister would probably be indifferent about it. What would they all think when he brought home a human mate? The Dken's were supposed to be spreading out across the United States and mating with other tiger shape shifters, and Erik was doing the complete opposite and not only mating with a human being, but falling hopelessly in love with her.

  The Dken's were the alphas of their tribe, and Alex, Barry and Robert had already done their part and gotten themselves mates. Erik was the only one left in the family and he was under pressure to do so, so that he would have more influence in the tribe. It was going to be a war staying at the helm of the family and marking the Dken territory to cover the whole country. There were many other families also waiting for the slimmest chance to grab the alpha position and it was up to Erik and his family to fight and protect their chair. They had set themselves up around the country and ran the streak the way that it was supposed to be ran.

  “I've never been to these parts before, it is breathtakingly beautiful,” Sarah mumbled, looking out at the scenery as they ascended. “I surely wouldn’t mind living here.”

  Breathtakingly beautiful! Yes she was. Usually Erik sat back and enjoyed the views, loving the seclusion of his place, but right now all that he wanted to do was look at her. He shifted on the seat, adjusting his aching erection.

  “I love it too, and maybe we could just live here and forget about everything else. You especially have to come here after the summer is over and the leaves on the trees have begun transfo
rming, it is awesome. It is at its best in the fall, though.”

  “In the fall?”

  “Yes, in the fall.”

  “The fall is barely a month away,” she breathed, looking away quickly, but not before he caught the sight of her blushing.

  The limo finally pulled up at the gates to his little paradise. Erik was glad that there were no reporters there to hound him since he intended to spend quality time with Sarah and would appreciate it being just him and her.

  “Wow, I think I am already in love with this place,” Sarah said taking in her surroundings as the limo wound its way up the driveway towards the house.

  His gaze followed Sarah's to his impressive timber ranch house that sat on top of a hill overlooking a lake. He loved this place because it had everything that he loved. There was a lot of privacy, lots of fish in the lake, and hectares after hectares of woodland that he would ran through whenever he wished and shift into a tiger without the worry of prying human eyes. This was his sanctuary and he intended to share it with Sarah until Monday morning.

  The driver took their bags into the house, and they followed close behind. “Wow, this place is simply awesome, the wooden floors and the simplicity of the décor. I just love it, and especially since I am not one for a lot of furniture cluttering the house.”

  This one was definitely a keeper. She had noticed his simple style and loved it. Most other women would expect him to refurnish his house with more expensive furniture and appliances. She was a simple girl, Erik thought.

  “Thank you, Sarah, I'm glad you like it. Would you like a drink?”

  “Yes please, I could really do with one right now, it is so hot I feel like stripping out of my clothes,” Sarah said to him.

  Erik led her into the kitchen and pulled a bottle of champagne out of the fridge, popping it open and pouring them each a glass.

  “Maybe I could fix up a hot tub on the balcony, and we could watch the stars together, what do you think?”

  “I think that is an excellent idea, if you will excuse me, I will put on something appropriate for the tub.”

  “You don’t need to put on anything, you and I have already seen each other naked and so there is nothing to hide.”

  She opened her mouth as if to say something and then stopped short, her cheeks coloring. “Okay, in that case, let me put on some screen cream to fend off any mosquitos.”

  He directed her to the master bedroom, where he had instructed the chauffeur to put their luggage. He wanted to make it clear right from the beginning that she would be spending the night in his bed, where she belonged.

  He then put the champagne into an ice bucket and took it out to the Jacuzzi. He also got a bowl of delicious looking strawberries, which made him wonder how Sarah would look eating them. He was glad at the way that his staff got things in order at the last minute and then went out of sight. Well, he paid them, and handsomely he did, so it was expected. He then peeled off his clothes and slid into the tub, whose temperature was just right, a distinctive difference from the chilly evening air.

  A cold breeze came his way and the smell of fresh pine needles gave him the overwhelming need to shift and sprint into the woods. That was one of the reasons that he loved it here, he could just be himself without bothering about anyone finding him. It was hard finding the will power not to shift, but he managed to do it. On any normal day, he would have followed his primal needs, shifted and sprinted into the night, but not tonight. He would not want to scare Sarah away.

  As for Sarah, he knew basically nothing about her. He also did not know how she would react when she found out the truth about him. He had told Earl to run a background check on her before they had left the city, and there was little data found. She had just moved to the city, moving in with her dad. Her mother had died when she was only five and her dad had taken care of her himself. She was a bright straight A’s student, and she had graduated from Yale University, a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Management, with flying colors. She was now looking for a job, which he had already given to her before he even knew anything about her. He had followed his instinct, and now here she was making him fall in love in a way that he could not understand.

  Her background seemed perfect and did not cloud his desire for her at all. He still wanted her the way that he had wanted her the very first time that he had set his eyes on her last night. He was just going to have to pray that she understood him when he told her what he really was. He was just going to have to keep his fingers crossed on that one and hope for the best. His whole life and those of his kind depended on it.

  He heard footsteps on the wooden deck and turned to see Sarah walking his way, draped in a heavy gown that came down half way down her thighs. Her legs looked glorious, and her cleavage presented him with a gift as her robe parted slightly. She came and sat on the edge, running her hand through the water.

  “It is really cold out here,” Sarah said to him.

  “Come on in and join me, the water is warm and it will make you feel better,” Erik said, his cock beginning to harden under the water when he tried to imagine the sort of things that they might do in the tub.

  Sarah hesitated, not bulging from where she was seated.

  “Sarah, what are you waiting for, I ain't gonna bite, at least not until later on.”

  He sensed her hesitation, almost as if something was troubling her. “Erik, I really don’t know, I am beginning to have second thoughts about the whole issue.”

  “What is making you to have second thoughts?” Erik asked, worry beginning to cloud him.

  “All of this, you, me, coming here with you. I think that we are moving too fast for good. What the hell am I doing here with you anyway? I don’t even know you!” she looked like she was deeply troubled indeed, and Erik was praying that things did not go badly for both of them.

  “You came here because you agreed to come along with me when I asked you, which meant that you wanted to do it,” he said, trying to read her face.

  “The thing is, why me? Why me when you could have brought much sexier women than me here, surely, no woman in the city can say no to you.”

  “I just happened to bring along with me the sexiest and most beautiful woman that I have ever laid my eyes on, and so if you will stop ranting on and on about nonsense, get in the tub,” the last part was more like an order.

  Her cheeks colored as a sparkle came into her eyes, something that she always did when she was embarrassed about something. It made her to look even sexier than she already was. Did she not know just how sexy and beautiful she was? To Erik, she was the epitome of beauty. She was the perfect woman, someone that he would always admire and wish to be a part of.

  She swung her leg over the tub and sat on the edge, letting her gown fall to the deck, before quickly sliding into the tub. Erik barely got a glimpse of her nakedness as she sunk into the water, sitting opposite him on the other end of the tub.

  “Come here, Sarah,” he said, hooking his finger indicating for her to move over to where he was seated.

  “I think I am pretty comfy over here.”

  She sounded shy, but why would she be after the passionate night that they'd had together last night. Erik could sense uncertainty in her feeling her conflicting thoughts in his mind.

  “Well then, you stay put, I'll come over,” he said, taking their champagne glasses and handing one to her before scooping the bowl of strawberries and moving over to sit next to her.

  She was gaping with surprise as he popped a berry onto her mouth. She started chewing it slowly as he watched her lips, a sight that will forever make him hard with desire. She took a sip of the champagne and smiled. “This tastes great, Erik.”

  Indeed it did, just as great as her. “Indeed it does, the berry sort of explodes in your mouth.”

  Sarah arched her brow. “Indeed it does, and the champagne gives it a sort of tangy taste, very sweet indeed. Here, it is now your turn to try it out.”

  She slipped a berry into his
mouth, and he closed his eyes, absorbing the sweet taste of the berry. They proceeded to feed each other and within no time, they had cleared the whole bowl of fruit and downed the bottle of champagne. They then lay back in the tub, looking up at the stars twinkling up above. The three quarter moon looked down at them, tugging at Erik in a strong way and making his blood boil.

  All Erik wanted to do was make love to Sarah until they were both breathless and spent. He would have gone ahead and done just that, but he held back since he did not want her to think that he was just using her for sex. He wanted much more than sex from her, he wanted to make her his mate.
