Deal With the Devil Page 7

  Marie stared into Nate’s bottomless green eyes, marveled at the love she saw reflected there. Nate slowly moved closer to her until his lips gently touched hers. They opened their mouths to each other and their tongues lightly brushed. Nate moved his hands to her waist, pulling her closer to him so their chests touched.

  Marie broke their kiss and turned away. “Hey, I just thought of something. I know you said you broke all the other contracts, but what about mine? You broke mine, too. I mean, you still want to be with me, right?”

  “There’s nothing I want more. But I didn’t want that contract hanging over us. I want you to be with me, to make love to me, because you want to. Not because you have to,” Nate explained to her as he stroked her hair. “I love you so much Marie. I’ve never loved anyone before. At first I couldn’t recognize the feelings I had for you. All I knew was when I was with you I was happy. Whenever it was time for me to leave I always felt terrible. If I wasn’t with you I found myself constantly thinking about you.”

  Marie sniffled as new tears started streaming from her eyes. The tears she cried weren’t from sorrow though, they were tears of happiness.

  “But now that we know how we both feel there’s something we really need to talk about. Something that might make you change your mind about me.”

  “What is it?” Marie asked him. She didn’t think there was anything he could say that would change how she felt about him.

  “The thing is Marie, if you decide to be with me of your own free will you’ll never be allowed into heaven. You stay with me and you’ll be sealing your fate forever.”

  Marie’s heart felt as if it would burst. “All that matters is that I get to be with you. That’s all I want. Being with you is my heaven.”

  “You won’t be able to change your mind.”

  “There’s no way I’m changing my mind.” She wanted him to look at her and promise her they’d be together forever. She didn’t want him to turn her away.

  Nate looked at Marie. “I’m not even sure what I’m supposed to do or say next. I want you to be with me, by my side for the rest of my existence.”

  Everything that Nate said to her that night was even better than anything she had dreamt up in her mind. He wanted her, just her, forever. She would give him all of herself to him. Her body. Her heart. Her soul.

  “I think the next thing you need to do is kiss me,” Marie told him with a smile.

  Nate grinned at her suggestion. He took her face gently in his hands while moving his face closer to hers. Before his lips touched hers Marie spoke again.

  “Tell me you’re mine,” Marie said in a breathless voice. Her heart pounded in her chest as she waited for his answer.

  He looked directly into her eyes. “I’m yours Marie. I’m yours forever.”

  Marie smiled and they kissed with rapidly building passion. She playfully nipped at Nate’s lower lip before she pulled back from him again. He looked up at her confused.

  “Come on, let’s go to my room,” she said as she tugged him off the sofa. Nate stood up and placed both of his hands on hers briefly bringing them to his lips, then let go and wrapped an arm around her waist as they walked to her room.

  When they got to the foot of her bed, Marie placed both her hands on Nate’s chest.

  “Do me a favor, Nate. No disappearing clothes tonight. I want to undress you.”

  He looked down as she unbuttoned his shirt all the way to the waistband of his black jeans. She tugged the material loose then pulled the shirt open to expose his smooth chest. Her palms ran over his nipples before sliding his shirt off over his shoulders letting it fall to the floor.

  Marie unbuttoned the waist of his jeans then unzipped the zipper. She slid her hand into his open pants to caress him. He hardened instantly with her touch.

  “I think I like your way better,” Nate said with a devilish grin. “Now will I have a turn to undress you?”

  “Yeah, maybe,” Marie answered with a grin of her own. She knelt down in front of him and pulled his jeans down in one smooth movement.

  “Yeah, I definitely like your way better,” he said, his eyes locked on Marie as she shifted on her knees in front of him, his rock hard cock in her hand. As she leaned in and put him deep in her mouth Nate closed his eyes and sighed. “I think I’ll have to let you take control more often.”

  Chapter Eleven

  Marie squinted against the sunlight streaming into her window and brushed a stray lock of hair from her eyes. An arm came from behind her to wrap around her waist. She quickly turned her head to see Nate lying next to her.

  “Morning darlin’,” he said and nuzzled his face into her neck.

  “You’re still here.” She was honestly amazed to see him in her bed. He had spent the entire night with her.

  “If you don’t want me here I can go.” He slid his arm off her waist and started to sit up.

  She grabbed his arm and put it back around her waist, pulling him back down next to her. “Don’t even think about it. You’re not going anywhere.” Now that he had finally spent the night she didn’t plan on letting him leave.

  “Okay, I’ll stay, but you’re going to have to go,” Nate told her with a laugh.

  Marie turned to look at him, confused. “What? Where am I going?”

  “Today’s Monday. I think you have to go to work today…unless you decided that maybe you don’t want to work anymore.”

  She turned to glance at the clock, her heart sinking as she realized she would have to leave soon if she wanted to make it to work on time.

  She started to rise from the bed, but Nate held her still. “You know, now that we’re together you never have to work again. I’ll get you anything you want, anything you need. We can travel, see the world… anything you want.”

  Marie nodded, a slow smile spreading across her face. “Well, let me at least call work to let Ken know I won’t be coming in anymore.” She rolled over and picked up her cordless phone from her nightstand. She dialed the number she knew by heart and waited for the beep before she started to speak.

  “Hey Ken, its Marie. I wanted to let you know I won’t be able to make it in today,” she said trying to keep her voice low. “In fact I can tell you now that I’m not going to be able to make it in anymore at all. I’m sure you’ll be able to find someone else to fill the position. I heard something about Kim wanting the job…Thanks for understanding Ken and I’ll talk to you soon.” She reached over and put the phone back on the charger and turned back to Nate.

  His laugh sent warmth throughout her body. “I can’t believe you just quit to a voicemail and then recommended that woman you hated for your job,” he said. “What’s gotten in to you, Marie? I thought you were a good girl.”

  “You’re right, I’m not like that at all,” she told him as she climbed over him, straddling him at the waist. She reached down and circled his nipples with her fingertips. “But really it was your idea for me to quit.”

  Marie leaned down and kissed him squarely on the lips then rubbed herself against him feeling him grow hard under her. She took his erection in her hand and guided him to her already wet sex.

  “Oh, so it’s my fault that you quit your job in such a way?” He raised his hips up to meet hers so his cock was buried deeply inside of her.

  She grinned. “What can I say? The Devil made me do it.”

  Nate groaned at her joke and proceeded to show her what else the devil could do.
