The warmth of his breath fanned against her ear and she lifted her head off his chest to meet his eyes. "Here? Now?"
"Yes," he said, curling his fingers gently in her hair, guiding her face closer to his. His lips tugged into a sensuous smile. "And this is how."
Johari wasn"t sure what to expect, but she didn"t antic.i.p.ate having her mouth made love to in such a way that turned her to complete mush in his lap. They had kissed before, but never like this. First he took the tip of his tongue and traced all around her lips, causing a sizzling sensation to stir throughout her entire body. Holding her mouth in place with his fingers resting on her cheekbones, with agonizing slowness he continued the process. His featherlight caresses were sending heated desire circulating all through her.
And when her lips parted on a moan, he inserted his tongue and curled it around hers, slowly and methodically taking a hold of it in a firm grasp. He began sucking on her tongue with a voraciousness that had her reaching out to clutch his shoulders when an incredible ache erupted inside of her. Dead center between her thighs. Waves of longing she had never felt before took over her senses and she could easily feel the engorged erection beneath her bottom and the solid hard chest pressed against her b.r.e.a.s.t.s The muscles in his shoulders felt firm and hard beneath the grip of her fingers and she could only savor his taste while the mastery of his kiss rippled through her, stirred an absolute ache within her.
He slowly pulled his mouth away and murmured against her moist lips in a low, throaty tone, "A woman lets a man know how much she appreciates him by the way she kisses him. The most important elements in a kiss are taste and feel. Use your tongue to do both with the sole purpose of building a craving inside of him that is strictly for you."
"Strictly for me?"
Another sensuous smile formed on his lips. "Yes. Go ahead, Jo, and try it."
She wondered how he could entice her to do such a thing when so many sensations and emotions were running through her. Ninety percent of her body felt overheated and there was a throb in her center that seemed to have taken on a life of its own.
"I"m here to teach you everything you need to know," he said a.s.suredly, as the warmth of his breath came in contact with her ear, sending a sensuous shiver through her.
She breathed in deeply. "What if I don"t do it right?" she whispered in a soft voice.
"You will do it right because there is no right or wrong way. Just continue to grip my shoulders, lean close and go for my mouth the same way I went for yours. Feel me and taste me. Build a craving inside of me that is strictly for you."
She focused on his lips and her heart began racing in her chest all over again. The tips of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s felt tight and achy and sensations were swirling around in her stomach. Her hands left his shoulders and clenched the front of his shirt instead. And then she leaned forward.
It took everything within Rasheed to just be a partic.i.p.ant in the kiss and let her take control, be in control. His lips throbbed beneath the tip of her tongue as she traced his mouth from corner to corner with the lightest of strokes. The same way he had done hers. Johari was a quick study. She was also one very s.e.xy woman. And the dress she was wearing looked stunningly feminine on her. There was just something sensual about white against brown skin.
A shudder rumbled through him. He could actually feel perspiration forming on his brow, and the erection behind the zipper of his pants felt helplessly engorged. There was nothing like being savored by a woman, having her tongue roam over your mouth, tasting you, feeling you, and destroying your ability to think straight. To think at all. When he parted his lips on a groan, she inserted her tongue to taste and feel some more, and when she did so he drew her tighter into his arms at the same time Johari deepened the kiss.
Desire answered the call of their mating lesson and he felt like a primitive animal being overpowered. Taken. He was the one being seduced. She was effortlessly sweeping him into a stream of heated l.u.s.t and, when she sank her mouth deeper into his, he couldn"t help the fingers that went through her hair to hold her mouth steady while images of what went beyond kissing filled his mind. This was pleasure as gratifying as it could get and he had been the one to show her how it was done.
"Please get ready for landing, Your-Mr. Madaris."
Rasheed was glad Johari was so focused on what she was doing that she missed the almost-slipup by his pilot. She slowly pulled her mouth away, but not before taking the tip of her tongue for one final flick.
Oh, Allah. He breathed in deeply. His student had been extra, extra thorough, eliciting a response from him that he had felt all the way to his toes. A knot formed in his throat when she lifted her eyes to meet his. He was finding it a challenge to maintain control. The l.u.s.t running through his body was about to kill him. He breathed in deeply.

"I need to go back to my seat now, Monty. How did I do?"
He let out the breath he was holding. "If you do any better I won"t be able to handle it."
He saw the way her lips tilted in a proud smile. "Thank you." She eased out of his lap. "Do we practice the kiss some more later?"
The eagerness in her tone touched a sensuous chord within him. Her innocence touched him, as well. It took everything he had to rein in his desires and any emotions attempting to overtake his common sense. He did not let women affect him. He affected them. "Yes, but we"ll also move on to other things, as well," he finally said. "We have but ten days to cover everything."
He watched how she moved back toward her seat and appreciated the sway of her hips. That sundress was adorable on her and he was looking forward to taking it off her later.
With Monty sitting beside her in a car driven by Ishaq, Johari smiled as they made their way toward another airport, where a smaller plane would fly them to the island where Monty"s villa was located.
As they rode across the scenic spans of the Costa e Silva Bridge, the largest bridge in the world that connected the cities of Rio de Janeiro and Niteroi, she was fascinated by everything she saw. All around was water bordering tall, magnificent buildings with mountains looming in the backdrop and all encased under the splendor of a beautiful blue sky.
This was her first time in South America and she thought the country was simply breathtakingly beautiful. She had been captivated from the moment she had stepped off the plane in Rio de Janeiro. Monty didn"t let her tarry too long before he escorted her to the car that had been waiting on the runway for him. Ishaq had taken over as driver and now they were on their way.
She didn"t have to glance over at Monty to know he was watching her. He was studying her intently and had been doing so for the past few minutes. She couldn"t help but wonder why. Was she some type of puzzle he was trying to figure out?
She couldn"t resist the temptation any longer and turned away from the window. For a long moment their eyes locked and no words pa.s.sed between them, making her as intensely aware of him as he was of her.
And then an unexpected mischievous smile touched his lips as he picked up the car"s remote and pressed a b.u.t.ton for the power privacy divider to separate them from Ishaq. Window covers immediately rolled down, as well, shielding them from outside view. They were plunged into semidarkness with only a few accent lights around the mirrored ceiling providing illumination.
"Come closer, Jo."
"Closer?" she asked softly. In the dimness of the lighting, he appeared solid, masculine and so starkly handsome it almost made her mouth water.
"Yes. It"s time for another lesson."
Her eyes widened. "There"s time?"
He tilted his head to the side as if giving her his absolute attention. "For you we will make time."
The words, spoken so matter-of-factly and glistening with s.e.xual tension, had the heat of arousal and were the reason the very air they were breathing seemed to drip in blatant hot sensuality. She had never experienced anything like this before. Living a sheltered life for twenty-four years had certainly made her miss out on a lot of things, especially men like Monty.
She was wasting time and she knew it. He knew it, as well. There was nothing about him that frightened her. Only the way he was making her feel, the emotions he could awaken. The man was so pa.s.sionate, so sensual, he could easily stoke the flame of desire in any woman. But she also had that power on him. Whenever she came in contact with that certain part of his body, it didn"t matter if they were standing or if she was sitting in his lap, his desire for her was evident.
She would have to say the feelings, the desire, were mutual because she wanted him as much as he seemed to want her. It was the novelty, as she had figured out earlier. It couldn"t be anything else, especially for him since she was definitely not the type of woman he was used to.
Drawing in a deep breath, she slid across the leather seat to him, felt a tingling in her body the moment her thigh touched his. He was wearing a white dress shirt and a pair of dark slacks. But even sitting she could only marvel at his muscular body, fit and trim, wide shoulders, flat stomach, perfect abs. Her attention moved lower, specifically to his crotch, and the only words she could think to say were, "Oh, my."
He shifted so he could easily turn to look at her. "I love your dress. The moment I saw you in it this morning I wondered about a few things."
Johari felt the trembling in her body when he reached out and, with the tip of his finger, traced around the thin strap. She was trying to concentrate on the fact that the smock-styled sundress, with an empire waist and full skirt, really didn"t reveal a lot. But she had known the moment she had seen it during one of her and Cel"s shopping sprees that it was the dress for her. She had no idea at the time she had made the purchase that this was the man-this incredible caliber of man-she would be wearing it for.
"What did you wonder about?" she asked, as his dark eyes swept over her once again. Everywhere his gaze touched seemed to ignite something within her that made her pulse race.
"Your b.r.e.a.s.t.s."
It seemed that as soon as he mentioned that part of her body her nipples began to respond as if they knew they were being discussed. They suddenly felt sensitive against the material of her dress and she wondered if Monty knew she was not wearing a bra. This type of sundress did not show any cleavage so nothing would have given her away. Well...almost nothing. There was that telltale sign of those same nipples pressing hard against her dress, easily being seen.
"What about my b.r.e.a.s.t.s?" she heard herself ask, grateful that Ishaq was not privy to their conversation.
"I was thinking about how pretty they must be, how they would fit in my hands, how they would taste in my mouth, wrapped around my tongue, sucked, licked and devoured."
Johari released a slow, deep breath. She could only stare into Monty"s dark eyes, speechless, and it didn"t help matters that he seemed fascinated with her dress straps. His long fingers, caressing both the material of her dress and some of her skin, had sensations fluttering in her stomach, heat settling between her legs.
"Lesson number two, Jo, when it comes to a woman"s b.r.e.a.s.t.s, when used correctly, they can bring a man to his knees," he drawled huskily.
Johari knew the look she gave him at that moment had to be wide-eyed surprise. She knew men liked b.r.e.a.s.t.s but didn"t know they could be that powerful. "Why and how?" she couldn"t help asking.
He smiled as he continued fidgeting with her straps. "A number of reasons, but I think the main one is that it gives them such a warm, s.e.xual feeling. Some men think they are the softest part of a woman, which is why they like to cuddle with them."
"What do you think?" she asked, trying to get her mind off the fact that his fingers were slowly working their way beneath the front of her dress as they talked.
"Personally, I think they are one of the most beautiful parts of a woman," he said.
"And personally," she decided to say, "I don"t know what"s the big deal."
She didn"t want to come out as bitter, but she was one of those women who"d never been blessed with big b.r.e.a.s.t.s, and sometimes the significance a lot of men placed on them annoyed her. To some, the larger the better. She was far from being flat-chested, but now she couldn"t help but wish they were somewhat bigger.
As if Monty had read her mind, had been privy to her every thought, he said, "Your b.r.e.a.s.t.s are perfect."
She looked him straight in the eye and said, "How would you know? You"ve never seen them."
"Because I know. And as far as seeing them..."
Before she could draw her next breath, he leaned over and captured her lips.
Never had Rasheed taken so much pleasure in kissing a woman as he enjoyed kissing Johari. There was just something about her lips, the way they fit beneath his, the way they tasted, their shape, size and texture. Everything about her lips was perfect, just like he knew her b.r.e.a.s.t.s would be. Just thinking about them made hormones that he had tried to control most of his adult life spring into action, threw his testosterone into overdrive and made everything male about him aroused and ready to go. He could not recall such a thing ever occurring before.
But there was something about this particular young and innocent tongue that was frolicking inside his mouth that had every cell inside his body thrumming to life, making him realize just how long it had been since he was pleasured by a woman, and just how much he wanted to be pleasured by one now. But he knew not just any woman would do; only this woman.
Amazing.
Another amazing thing was how right she felt in his arms, how warm, tantalizing and right. It was as if she was created specifically for him. He suddenly lifted his mouth from hers, thinking he was having a monumental l.u.s.t attack to even consider such a thing. No woman, even the one he was destined to marry, had been made specifically for him and it was foolish to even let such a notion take shape in his head.
He studied her lips, which his mouth had just released, saw they were moist from his kiss and knew he wanted to sink his mouth into hers again, so he did while his hand reached out to cup the shape of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s through the material of her dress.
He absorbed in his mouth the moan she made in her throat and appreciated the way her body arched against his hand. Automatically and absolute. He would be a fool not to acknowledge the fact that she wasn"t the only one nearly pushed over the edge. And while his mouth was still locked with hers, using skilled fingers, he eased down the straps of her dress.
With perfect precision, unerring timing, he moved his mouth from her lips to her b.r.e.a.s.t.s, immediately latching onto a nipple, liking the sound of her moan when he did so. The moment he drew it into his mouth and began sucking on it, he knew her taste would ultimately be his downfall. She was sweetness and temptation all rolled into one and he became fascinated by the feel of his tongue as it circled her nipple, enjoying the texture as well as her taste.
He released one nipple and before moving to the other he leaned up and gazed at her chest, and felt his erection harden even more. Her b.r.e.a.s.t.s were perfectly shaped mounds, the perfect size, the perfect weight. One nipple was wet from his kiss.
"I told you that your b.r.e.a.s.t.s were perfect," he whispered, leaning to capture the other peaked nipple between his lips. His tongue skimmed over it before he greedily sucked it into his mouth.
He could tell from the way she gripped the back of his head to hold him to her breast that she liked the feeling and that he was arousing sensations inside of her. They were sensations she had not felt before. But he didn"t plan on stopping there. There was a direct correlation between a woman"s b.r.e.a.s.t.s and that area between her legs, which was the reason she was shifting her legs back and forth. With every suck of his tongue, heat was gathering near her womb and spreading through all parts of her body. Her panties were getting wet and the feminine scent of her was flowing through his nostrils and causing him to devour her b.r.e.a.s.t.s with unrestrained hunger.
Needing to touch the wetness that had gathered between her thighs, he shifted and reached his hand under her dress while keeping his mouth firmly on her nipple, letting his tongue continue to drive her over the edge and showing her what a perfect mult.i.tasker he was.
His fingers moved past her panties and she automatically spread her legs. When he felt her moist heat, he was filled with a monumental need to taste her in that very spot. Stake his claim. It was a good thing that he knew they were less than five minutes from the airstrip, otherwise he wouldn"t hesitate to lay her back on the seat and bury his head between her legs. But still, he intended to give her something to remember him by.
Giving her b.r.e.a.s.t.s a rest, he buried his face between them as his hands concentrated on letting his fingers pleasure her. She felt swollen, hot, ready, and he moved his fingers inside her, caressing the area he knew would stir a need within her, a need that only he could quench.
"Monty!"
Her crying out his name did something to him, and the sound was of an intensity he hadn"t heard before. There was a s.e.xiness in her voice and the more he stroked her the wetter she became. He could tell she was on the verge of the climax he was intentionally giving her.
And when her body moved in a fierce jerk, he knew she was about to let out a scream and he quickly left her breast to angle his head. He sank down on her mouth, tangling with her tongue the same way his fingers were tangling with the sensitive and beautiful blossom between her legs.
She was still quivering beneath his mouth, and his fingers were enjoying the feel of the aftershocks going on between her thighs. The air surrounding them had the fragrance of uncompleted s.e.x. He breathed in deeply, absorbing it into this nostrils, pulling it through to his lungs.
"You came."
His words hadn"t been sugarcoated. They had been as blatant as words could get, given his hand was still under her dress, not ready to let go. A satisfied smile touched her lips and she slowly opened her eyes and met his gaze. "Yes, I did, didn"t I?" she responded breathlessly. Stunned, but totally without shame. "My first time."
A huge smile curved Rasheed"s mouth. He hadn"t expected it, but it only gave credence to what a pa.s.sionate being she was. She had held his head to her like mother would hold a baby and he had taken all she had offered, and she hadn"t been ashamed to admit she had gotten an o.r.g.a.s.m. Her first. Now was not the time to tell her there were many more where that one had come from.
He pulled his hand away and made sure she watched as he licked his fingers. "I can"t wait to taste you there," he said, smiling over at her.
And then because he couldn"t help himself, he leaned over and kissed her again, vaguely aware of Ishaq on the intercom letting him know they had less than three minutes before they reached their destination.
He pulled back from her lips but not before taking one final swipe with his tongue. He then leaned up and readjusted her dress, making sure the straps were back in place.
"We"re sharing a bed tonight, Jo. If you have any objections you need to let me know now."
She nervously swiped her bottom lip with her tongue. He watched the movement and wished she hadn"t done that. It was bad enough thinking about what would take place in his bed tonight.
"No, I don"t have any objections."
He smiled. "I"m glad." And only Allah knew just how glad he was. And only Allah knew just how glad he was.
Chapter 8.
Johari glanced around the bedroom she"d been given thinking of just how beautiful the room was decorated and the view she had of the Atlantic Ocean was stunning. It seemed there was a lot Monty hadn"t told her, such as the fact that he was good friends with Raul Santini, the man who was making headlines for being a top contender as the next president of Argentina.
The size of his villa was another thing Monty hadn"t told her. Situated between Brazil and Argentina, the villa was on a private island that Monty owned. When the small plane had landed she was speechless at the size of the estate that sat in the middle of the ocean with its own landing pad. Monty had explained the only mode of transportation to his island was either by plane or boat.
The huge multilevel villa was breathtaking in both design and structure and was surrounded by beautiful trees and lush gra.s.slands. She doubted she"d ever seen so much greenery in her entire life. And there were the mountains in the background providing a picturesque view of turquoise blue waters and a sandy white beach.
According to Monty, he had purchased the existing island a few years ago from a member of Raul"s family and came here whenever he wanted to rest and relax.
He told her about the tennis courts he had installed and the racetrack he had put in due to his love of auto racing. And because he enjoyed riding horses he kept several on the island as well as a catamaran he liked taking out on the water to fish on occasion.
She could only a.s.sume business for Monty was going well for him to be able to indulge in such luxuries. The staff had been glad to see him, had greeted him as Senor Monty, and she could immediately tell they respected him and he respected them. She guessed, from their easy acceptance of her presence, that it was not uncommon for him to bring a woman with him whenever he came to the island.
