Kneeling for a Second Chance Novel

---- Chapter 323 "Do you think I'm too old?" Sebastian lowered his voice, letting out a faint, mocking hum. "Do you prefer younger men?" Valeria was only a year younger than him. She shook her head. Then, a hint of amusement flashed in her eyes as she nodded. "Kayla said that men are terrible once they turn 25 years old. The younger ones are naturally better as they have more energy." "Nathan's two years older than me," Sebastian said. When they reached the car, he opened the passenger door for her. As she slid into the seat, he leaned in. One hand was braced against the roof as he bent down.

He pinched Valeria's cheek with his other hand. "Don't you already know if I'm good enough or not?" "That was three years ago. Who knows if you're able to get it up or not?" Valeria muttered in a muffled tone. Her cheek was trapped by his hand, so her words came out softly. After that, she fell silent because Sebastian was intensely looking at her. Gone was his usual cold detachment, replaced by a raw hunger that seemed ready to swallow her whole. It was as if one more provoking word from her would set him off.

If they were not at the city hall in broad daylight , there was a chance he would take her right there in the car. ---- Valeria quickly buckled her seatbelt and urged him, "Aren't you going to the hospital to visit Mrs. Grant Sr.?"" Ten minutes into the drive, Martha called. She said clearly, " I'm fine. I'm perfectly fine! The CT's done, and Ruby checked it for me. It's just an Achilles tendon injury, nothing serious. I've already had it iced. You handle what you need to first.

Make sure you bring her home tonight." When Sebastian ended the call, he made a turn and set the GPS for the nearest hotel. He got out, circled to the passenger side, opened Valeria's door, and leaned in. While he unfastened her seatbelt, he tilted his head and caught her earlobe between his teeth. He said in a hoarse and low voice, "Come inside. Let's see whether your man still can get it up or not." "In broad daylight , you mean?" Valeria's back instinctively pressed hard against the seat. Sebastian slid an arm behind her neck and under her knees, lifting her in one motion.

His hot breath brushed against her face. "Is having sex during the day against the law?" He carried her out, nudging her hip upward with his knee. Valeria slipped her arms around his neck. When they entered the hotel, she ducked her face against his ---- chest, embarrassed by the glances being cast their way. She said ina soft, muffled voice, "Let's just go to your place..." Sebastian walked into the elevator with her in his arms. As the doors closed and shut them inside, Sebastian's Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed hard.

Unable to resist anymore, he loosened his collar, set her down, and claimed her lips. As the elevator climbed, ten seconds felt like an eternity. Valeria's cheeks burned red. She glanced at the surveillance camera, and her fingers clutched tightly at the back of his shirt. Sebastian knew exactly what she was thinking. He said raspily, "I'll have someone deal with it later." Then, without another pause, he scooped her up again and moved quickly toward the executive suite he had booked. The door clicked open, and he carried her straight to the bed, kicking the door shut behind them.

The mattress sank under her as he tossed her down, her body bouncing slightly from the force. Before she could even breathe, he pressed her down, pinning her firmly beneath him.
