Chapter 5

"Is that so?" Red traced his hands up and down Liz's arms as she held on to his neck. The movement tickled the underside of her arms and sent shivers down her spine. "What are you planning on doing Lizzie?" Red's voice had turned rough and raspy.

"You'll see." Liz then turned around in his arms and started to back him up to the sofa. When he reached the edge, she pushed him down. "Sit."

Red cocked his head to the left. "And you call me controlling."

Liz resumed her position straddling him once again. "Payback." Liz said with a mischievous grin on her face.

Red looked deep into Liz's eyes like he was searching her soul. His deep gaze was both erotic and hypnotic. Liz diverted her eyes to his lips and licked hers. So be it, Liz thought, and leaned down to trace his bottom lip with her tongue. As he opened his mouth wider to moan , she took the opportunity to slip her tongue inside his mouth. She traced his own tongue with hers and the taste of warm scotch and salt filled her mouth.

Red moved his hands to Liz's neck and kissed her more deep. His tongue started to dart over hers and she let out a moan. Suddenly, Red grabbed some of the hair at the nape of her neck and pulled her head back, forcing her to look into his eyes.

"You have no idea how long I've wanted you to do that. Pity you had to be drunk to do it."

Liz tried to lean her head forward but he wouldn't let her. To get him to let go, she slowly ground her hips into his, feeling his long erection jump. Quickly, Red let go of her hair and brought his hands down to her hips to stop her. As she leaned in to kiss his neck he whispered roughly in her ear. "It's time I get you to your bed before this gets out of hand."

Liz shook her head no and brought her mouth to his right ear and started to nibble and suck playfully on his earlobe. "I know something that I want to get into my hand." With that she reached down underneath her and grabbed his erection through his pants.

Red's hips involuntarily pushed forward, rubbing himself against her curious hand. "Lizzie..." Red warned.

"Red..." Liz mimicked.

"We need to stop." Red said roughly in her ear. Reaching down , he grabbed her hand and brought it back around his neck.

Liz shook her head no and rubbed herself against his erection again. "Nope. I plan on torturing you all night."

Red chuckled and tightened his hold on her hips. "Torturing me for what?"

Liz kissed her way across his right cheek until she reached his mouth and gave him a deep kiss. "Answers..." She mumble against his mouth.

"Lizzie, you must be pretty drunk to think this will get me to talk. You are forgetting who I am and what I've been through. Believe me, I've been tortured before and this is nothing."

Liz raised her head and looked into his eyes. "Nothing? I can tell you want me."

Red flexed his hips, grinding into her on purpose. "That's quiet obvious, don't you think? It's not a question of do I want you, it's a question of should I have you? I've been honest with you from the beginning. I am hear to protect you Lizzie. That includes from myself. "

"I don't need protecting." Liz complained.

"More than you know." With that, Red lifted her off him and stood up. "Now , let's get you into bed."

Liz smiled. Maybe in the bedroom she would have better luck because right now her plan was failing miserably.
