#Chapter Seventeen
Serene slid one finger into her pussy as her breathing hitched in her throat, before short bursts of air escaped from her lips. She arched her back and fisted her sheets with her other hand, her eyes tightly closed and her mouth open in the silent scream of his name as the orgasm rocked through her body. She shivered and shivered as the waves of pleasure struck her like a hurricane on measly rocks.
Then a knock sounded on her door.
She shot up and pulled her panties back up, tugging her dress down her ankles again. What was wrong with her? She knew someone was coming, and yet she still did things like this.
"Your Ladyship? The flowers you asked for are ready," Lachlan said as he knocked on the door again. She paced her bedroom, trying to get her breathing back to normal before she went to the door to open it. She stepped aside and Lachlan walked in with the vase in his hand. "Where do I put it?"
She pointed at the table. "There."
He set it down at the table and returned to her, stopping midway to put his nose in the air. "What's that smell?"
"What smell?"
"It smells like musk, like…" he trailed off.
She wiped her clammy hands on her dress. "You must be imagining things."
"I know plants, Serene. I have great smell."
"I don't smell anything."
"It smells like, like…"
"What?"
"Why are your cheeks so red?"
"They're not red," she said as she palmed her cheeks and willed for the colour to leave them.
Realisation set into his features. "It appears I've interrupted something."
"No, you haven't," she said. "I was expecting you."
He inched closer, his breath fanning her cheeks. "Were you pleasuring yourself, Serene?"
"N-No, I wasn't."
"I know what a pussy smells like," he said to her as he hovered above her. "And I smell it on you."
She put the back of her hand across her mouth. Opening her mouth to speak, no words came out and she closed her mouth again.
"Who do you think of when you touch yourself, hmm? It can't be Frank, because we both know what kind of person he is."
"I don't think of y-you," she stammered. "Not at all."
"Are you sure? Then why can't you look me in the eye?" Lachlan said as he took a step towards her, causing her to step backwards.
"W-Wha - " Serene said as she forced herself to look into his eyes. The moment she did, fire exploded and their mouths flew towards each other. He scraped her lower lip with his teeth before biting into it and she let out a moan. Pushing his tongue into hers, he sucked the soul from her body.
Her core screaming, Serene clawed angrily at his shirt, tearing the buttons on his vest apart until they fell to the ground. She pushed her mouth into his roughly as he dragged her waist into his body. He drew his head back and she stared at him in horror and in silence for a short moment before she shot forwards again, only for him to draw back in a self-satisfied laugh. With both her hands flat on his chest, she pushed her body into him until they stumbled into the table behind him and she half crawled on top on him as he leaned against the table.
Flipping her around, he put her on the table and she spread her legs for him to nudge in between. He kissed into her mouth and her hand splayed outwards, sending the vase crashing to the ground, the pieces flying everywhere. She forced herself off the table and her lips roughened up the kiss as she pushed his back up against the bed post. His hands found the clasps on the back of her dress and shook them free of their closures when they heard footsteps approaching.
"Hey, Frank! Where are you?!" Frank's brother hollered.
Lachlan moved towards her face to kiss her again and she buried her face in his, sucking onto his tongue.
"Frank!"
She pulled herself forcefully off his body, and dressed herself, then headed out the door as she wiped her mouth.
