The Sheik’s Vow (The Billionaire’s Club #13)

Chapter 17

“Where are you taking me?” Kaia demanded, laughing as she gripped Riaz’s arm. She lifted one hand, touching the blindfold covering her eyes.

“Do you trust me?”

“No!” she replied without hesitation. But there was laughter in her voice. And he knew that she did trust him. Surprisingly, Kaia trusted Riaz more than she trusted anyone else, besides Tara.

“Yes, you do,” he countered, then kissed her nose as “punishment” for her lie.

“Fine. I’ll trust you for a few more minutes. But if you don’t tell me where you’ve taken me, I’m going to become very–”

She stopped when the blindfold was pulled away. Kaia had to blink for a moment as the soft lights hit her eyes. But as soon as she could see more clearly, an involuntary gasp echoed around the room.

“What…is…this place?” she whispered, turning slowly to take in all of the shimmering diamonds, rubies, and emeralds. Oh! And sapphires! “Are these real?” she asked, still keeping her voice low.

“Every single gem,” Riaz confirmed, lifting the security glass, exposing a diamond necklace that was about five tiers and would cover her all the way to her shoulders. Riaz lifted the heavy diamond necklace and came towards her, but when he noticed the tee-shirt she was wearing, he shook his head. “Nope. You need to take that off.”

Kaia blushed, but when she caught the heated look in his eyes, she reached for the hem of her shirt and slowly, shyly, pulled it up over her head. With a swish, the material dropped to the floor.

With a nod of approval, Riaz came towards her, lifting the necklace up over her head. He moved behind her and secured the diamond necklace at the base of her neck. Then he guided her over to a mirror set up on one of the cases.

“What do you think?” Riaz asked, his voice low and husky in her ear. His finger trailed a heated path along the outer edge of the necklace. The diamond tiers were so wide, the last tier rested against the upper swells of her breasts. Kaia gasped at the touch of his finger, but wiggled because she needed his fingertip touching her nipple. Not just the upper part of her breast.

“We made love all night,” she whispered, trying to deny the need that was washing over her all over again.

He nibbled on the back of her neck, his other hand coming up to trace the skin right underneath the diamonds. “I think you need the earrings.”

His fingers left her and Kaia wanted to call him back. But he reappeared with chandelier style earrings that perfectly matched the necklace. They were clip on earrings and he gently attached them to her ears.

Kaia ignored the pinch as the heavy jewels dangled from her ears.

“And bracelets,” he announced next.

When he came back this time, he took each of her wrists and attached diamond bracelets that were so wide, they seemed to be cuffs.

“These can’t be real!” she laughed, but lifted her arms like a belly dancer. “How do I look?”

“Scrumptious,” he replied.

Kaia eyed him as he leaned casually against the counter. The secure glass box he was leaning against contained huge jewels set in ornately created settings, the pieces probably worth more than the entire gross domestic product of a small country. But he didn’t appear to care. His eyes were on her and she could see the heat burning in them.

That heat spurred her own desire. Biting her lip, she stepped back, smiling at the surprise in his eyes. She reached behind her back, and deftly released the clasp of her bra, dropping it onto the floor.

“Better?” she asked, cupping her breasts.

Instantly, Riaz was entranced. “Better,” he choked out.

He still had his arms crossed over his chest, but there was an air of anticipation in him now. “Could be better though.”

Kaia blushed, as her hands moved away from her breasts, sliding down her stomach. With a flick of her fingers, she released the snap on her jeans. She slid the denim down her legs, and kicked them away.

“How’s this?” she asked, trying to appear cool and confident. In fact, she was trembling with need. Need for him to touch her, to do all of those delicious things that he’d shown her yesterday afternoon and last night.

“Much better,” he replied.

She shifted around to look at herself in the small mirror. “I like it,” she admitted with a laugh.

“I don’t think that small mirror can do the sight justice,” he commented.

Riaz took her hand and led her over to a long mirror. “This was put in place a long time ago, when harem women would come down and decide what jewels best went with their outfits.” He kissed a trail down her neck as she stood in front of the long mirror that showed all of her. “I think there’s something missing,” he whispered, looking at her in the mirror as he stood behind her. “What could it be?” he muttered as if contemplating her image while his hands moved over her stomach, sliding down over her hips, then the outside of her thighs. Kaia gasped, startled when those hands glided up and over her bottom, then his fingernails skimmed up her spine.

She was melting with need now, her legs trembling as she fought to remain standing. When he touched her like this, all she wanted to do was beg him to make love to her.

He snapped his finger. “I know what’s missing.” He turned away, leaving Kaia standing, still naked, in front of the mirror. He walked down the long line of secure cases, then stopped in front of one, pulled something out, then kept on walking until he found something else. When he turned, Kaia could see his hands were dripping with diamonds and sapphires.

When he bent down, kneeling at her feet, she was even more surprised. “Don’t move,” he commanded, then strapped a gaudy diamond and sapphire bracelet around each of her ankles. Kaia laughed, delighted when she lifted her foot to see the gems sparkling in the security lights.

“You’re crazy!”

He stood up and resumed his position behind her back. When he brought his hands forward, a long diamond necklace dangled from his fingers. “I know this is supposed to go around your neck, but I thought it would look pretty amazing like this,” he said and wrapped the necklace around her waist. The necklace dangled and shimmered and Kaia could barely control her lust now.

She started to turn around, but he gripped her shoulders. “No. I want you just like this,” he told her and slid his hands down over her arms until his hands gripped her wrists. Slowly, he lifted them until they were planted against the wall. “Now, I get to see everything while I do this,” he told her. His hands moved over her, touching her everywhere, lingering in places that made her moan or gasp, then moving on to another.

“Don’t move,” he ordered and stepped away.

When he came back this time, still behind her and naked himself, he knew every inch of her body. Every throbbing inch of her had been touched, licked, nibbled.

“Riaz!” she gasped, wiggling her hips and watching as the diamonds shimmered. The gems turned her on almost as much as the way he was touching her. It felt so naughty to be decked out in only priceless jewels!

“Now!” she whispered, her voice nearly choking with her need. “I want you now!”

He ripped open a condom and rolled it down over his shaft. Then shifted her so that she was at a better angle. “I think we need a mirror in the bedroom,” he commented, looking down at where he was sliding into her, gripping her hips.

Kaia moaned, but she wasn’t sure if the reaction was because of the thought of watching them have sex, or because he was filling her up, sliding into her heat and he felt so perfect!

When he reached around her, his finger sliding into her dark curls and finding that nub, Kaia nearly sobbed with relief. But that relief was short lived. He teased that nub until she was writhing. Unable to stop herself, she removed her hand from the wall, pressing her hand over his and forcing him to give her the climax she so desperately needed.

Riaz watched, groaning with her movements. She cried out, and Riaz wasn’t far behind, her inner muscles climaxing furiously, bringing him right along with her.

When their bodies slowed, Kaia looked up, one hand still braced against the mirror. When she caught his look in the mirror, there was a hot blush moving up her neck and cheeks, but her smile also widened.

“That was incredible!” she whispered.

In response, he kissed her shoulder in silent agreement.
