I gave it time, his hands moved over me then I kept going.

Thats it, bring yourself close again, he whispered, his hands moving up then they were cupping my br**sts. Look at you. Fuck me, my baby, so f**kin sweet.

Then his fingers were at my ni**les, pinching, squeezing, rolling, pulling.

I stopped moving the strap.

Keep rubbing, he growled on a sharp tug of my ni**les.

Daddy, I used the word as a warning. I was close.

He tugged again at my ni**les and it shot through me, my head jerking back, hitting his shoulder.

Do not come, Anya, and keep working yourself.

Oh God. I couldnt do this. I was going to come.

But I did what I was told.

Fuck yeah, he groaned into my neck, grinding his crotch into my back.

Daddy, I whimpered.

He squeezed my ni**les.

Do not come, baby.

Daddy, I moaned, still rubbing.

Do not come.

I did as I was told and I was pressing my head in his shoulder, biting my lip, keening when he growled. Drop it.

I dropped the strap instantly.

Then I was back to the desk, Knight hands behind my knees shoving them high and wide. Then one went to his fly. Then it was back behind my knee and he was driving into me, brutal, savage, my eyes on him f**king me, his burning on my body jolting on his desk.

Stroke three, I came.

Then I came.

And I came.

And I came.

And then I lost track of how many times I came.

Then with one last, violent thrust, Knight came.

Eyes still on me, hands still behind my knees, he went from thrusting to sliding.

Then he plunged deep and whispered, Come here, baby.

I pushed up, his hands went to my ass, my legs wrapped around his h*ps and he lifted me up. My arms wrapped around his shoulders and he walked me across the room to his couch and then took us down, me on my back, Knight on top and he managed to do this entire maneuver connected to me.

He lifted some of his weight off me with a forearm in the couch and his other hand came to my face, his fingertips skimming my jaw, my cheek, his eyes on me and he asked gently, You okay?

Happy birthday, I whispered and he blinked.

Then he whispered, What?

Kathleen told me, I shared. I wasnt at a club. I was with Sandrine but I was with Vivica too. We were at a bar. Back booth. No one could even see us. No dancing. Nothing. Just us girls. We took a taxi so no one driving drunk. And Rhashan was in on the surprise, kinda, without a real share, he just knows its a surprise birthday gig for you and he knew where we were the whole time.

He stared at me and he did this a long time, giving nothing away.

So I went on softly and now uncertainly, I didnt know what to get you.

Jesus, f**k, he finally muttered.

Knight?

Jesus, f**k, he repeated.

Did I was that okay?

He buried his face in my neck and groaned, Jesus, f**k. Fuck me. Fuck me.

I didnt know what to make of this.

Knight? I called.

His head came up.

Yes, he clipped. Yes, Anya, baby, f**k me, baby. Yes, that was f**kin okay. That was f**kin beautiful what you gave me.

It was. He believed that. What I gave him meant something to him.

It meant a lot.

Tears filled my eyes.

Knight, I whispered.

Fuck me, he whispered back, staring at me, his eyes burning because his heart was beating there.

God.

Beautiful.

I smiled, lifted my head and, lips to his, I whispered, Im kinda not done.

Fuck me, he repeated and I smiled bigger.

But youll need to get off me.

I watched his eyes close slowly and then I watched as emotion washed over his features.

And I did this mesmerized.

God.

Beautiful.

Then he touched his mouth to mine, slid out and got off me, pulling me up with him. He held me close with an arm around my waist as I got steady on my feet.

Then when I shot him a grin, he muttered, Nightie, babe, desk.

So that was the soft whoosh.

My man, even pissed, he always remembered to take care of me.

My grin got bigger.

Then I went to the desk and pulled the red, silk and lace short nightie with the high slits up my sides that Knight bought for me over my head. I shot him another grin as I walked out to see he was still standing at the couch, hed adjusted his trousers and his eyes were on me.

The minute I knew he lost sight of me, I moved fast.

I had it all planned and I put it in motion quickly. I cleaned up and took my shoes off. Then I grabbed the bag of wrapped presents. Then I went to where Id hidden the store bought, fancy decorated cake with the candles and lighter. I shoved the candles in and lit them. Then balancing the cake in both hands with the bag of presents dangling, I went back to his study.

Knight was sitting, ass to the desk where Id spent a memorable amount of time, legs stretched out in front of him, eyes to his crossed feet, hands at his sides, fingers curled around the desks edge but his head came up when I walked in carrying the cake.

His eyes went to the cake then to me and instantly his face got soft and his eyes warm but surprised and definitely pleased.

Totally beautiful.

Jesus, baby, he whispered as I walked to him.

I stopped in front of him.

Happy birthday, sweetheart.

His eyes stayed locked to mine.

Anya.

I waited. He said no more.

Make a wish and blow out your candles, honey, I whispered.

His body didnt move and neither did his eyes.

Make a wish, Knight.

His eyes then moved, roaming my face, down my body, the cake, more of me then back to my eyes.

Honey, the candles are gonna burn out, I prompted on a grin.

Let em, he replied. Got nothin I want. Everything I want is standing right in front of me.

Oh.

My.

God.

My nose stung and my eyes filled with tears.

Please, I begged softly, blow out the candles, Knight.

He held my eyes. One tear slid out my left, followed by another on my right.

Then he bent forward and blew out the candles.

Thank you, I whispered.

He grabbed the cake and plopped it on his desk. Then he pulled the bag out of my hand and tossed it on one of the two chairs angled at the front of it. Then he yanked me between his legs, in his arms, doing it roughly, holding me tight, one arm around my waist, one hand in my hair, his mouth crushed down on mine and he plundered it.
