It had been a few weeks since you started tutoring Roman Godfrey. Surprisingly, the sessions were going well, better than you had anticipated. Roman, despite being hesitant at first, showed genuine improvement in his studies, and you were beginning to see glimpses of his hidden potential.
As you walked into the Godfrey mansion for another study session, the familiar grandeur greeted you. The high ceilings and opulent décor created an imposing atmosphere, yet it had become strangely comforting over the past weeks. You were let in by the same butler who had greeted you before, Mr. Finch. He was a kind, bald man with a neatly trimmed beard and a warm smile that contrasted with his formal attire. Since you first met him, you noticed that his mood seemed to slightly improve whenever he saw you. He always asked about your day and made sure you were comfortable, his soft-spoken nature and attentive demeanor adding a touch of warmth to the otherwise cold mansion.
You walked into the living room and found Roman sprawled on the ornate couch, his dark hair tousled and eyes half-lidded with indifference. Smoke curled from his cigarette as he watched something on the television. The volume was high, and as you approached, you realized with a shock that it was porn.
You cleared your throat, trying to mask your discomfort. “Roman, what the hell?”
Roman turned his head lazily to look at you, a smirk spreading across his face. “Hey Einstein,” he drawled, not bothering to turn off the TV. “You’re early.”
Einstein. The nickname he gave you a few weeks ago. It all started when he struggled with a tricky calculus problem involving integration by parts and you explained it effortlessly. "Look at you, Einstein. Being a smart ass," was all he replied with a smirk. Despite his best efforts to hide it, you could tell he was impressed.
He would often tease you about your dedication to studying, insisting you needed to lighten up and have some fun. Sometimes, he’d offer you a cigarette or a drink, hoping to get you to loosen up, but you’d always reject it and tell him to concentrate. He’d either roll his eyes, claim it was your loss or call you a prude and indulge in whatever he was offering. Although you didn’t mind the nickname “Einstein,” you thought he could’ve been more original with it.
"I'm not, Roman. It's two o'clock," you said, turning to the TV again and then quickly looking away, repulsed by what was presented. "How can you watch that?"
Roman exhaled a plume of smoke, his green eyes glittering with mischief. “Why not? It’s just another form of entertainment.”
You scoffed, concerned yet slightly amused by his answer. “Fine. Better yet, aren’t you supposed to be watching this kind of thing in your room? Alone?”
He shrugged, taking another drag of his cigarette as he looked back at the TV. “Olivia’s out of town. Figured I’d take advantage of the peace and quiet.”
You stood and stared at him for a few seconds before sighing and slinging your backpack off your shoulders, placing it on the floor. You walked up to him and said, “Scoot over.”
Roman raised an eyebrow, but complied, lifting his long legs and placing them on the floor. When you settled in beside him, he casually put them back on your lap.
You rolled your eyes but didn’t push him away. Glancing at him, you noticed him looking down at you with a smirk, taking a puff of his cigarette. You couldn’t help but feel your cheeks flush slightly, but you quickly brushed off the feeling and refocused on what he was doing.
“Is this what you’re going to do all day? Smoke and watch…” you paused, looking back at the TV in disgust. “Horrible representation on what the female pleasure looks like?”
Roman chuckled, taking another drag from his cigarette before responding. “Hey, it’s just background noise. Not my fault if they get it wrong,” he said with a smirk. “Besides, you’re here now, so maybe you can show me what it’s supposed to be like.”
You rolled your eyes again but couldn’t help the small smile tugging at your lips. You grabbed a pillow from behind you and playfully smacked him with it. “You’re impossible, Roman.”
He chuckled softly, tilting his head to the side as he looked at you. “And you love every minute of it.”
Shaking your head with a soft smile planted on your lips, you set the pillow back behind you and reached for the remote to turn off the TV. "We should get to work now," you suggested.
As you took the remote in your hands, Roman sat up and grabbed your wrist with a slight force. His eyes widened slightly when you turned to him abruptly. He cleared his throat, a rare hint of uncertainty in his voice. “I didn’t mean to startle you. I just… thought maybe we could take a break today.”
You looked at him, surprised by the sudden vulnerability in his voice. “A break?”
He nodded, his grip on your wrist loosening. “Yeah. And just… hang out.”
You considered his request for a moment, noting the rare glimpse of vulnerability. It almost seemed like he genuinely wanted to spend time with you. You shook off the thought, deciding not to read too much into it. He was probably just looking for an excuse to slack off.
“Alright. We can take a break.”
He let out a breath you hadn’t realized he was holding, his usual confidence returning with a smirk. “Great. So, what do you want to do instead?”
You smiled, settling back into the couch. “How about we start with finding something decent to watch?”
Roman grins widened as he took the remote from your hand. “Alright, but my definition of ‘decent’ might be different from yours.“
Clearly.
He stayed seated on the couch, a cigarette smoldering between his fingers as he scanned through TV channels. The remnants of the explicit film flickered on the screen before he swiftly dismissed it with a flick of the remote.
Leaning back, he exhaled another plume of smoke. Instead of flipping through mainstream channels, he navigated to a streaming service, browsing through a selection of cult classics and indie films. He finally settled on a horror movie, naturally.
As the movie began, you glanced at him, studying his side profile. His sharp nose cast a subtle shadow, while his lips, relaxed and slightly parted, revealed his quiet concentration. The way his eyes reflected the flickering light from the screen added an intriguing depth to his expression. As much as you hated to admit it, you found yourself drawn to him.
You had realized this a few days ago during your usual banter in the kitchen. You were leaning against the counter when Roman moved closer, his tall frame towering over yours. He looked down at you, smiling with his head tilted to the side. In that moment, you felt like the air was sucked from your lungs. When you found yourself hoping he’d kiss you, you knew for sure. It might have been lust or a silly crush, but there was definitely something there.
Your thoughts were abruptly interrupted when Roman glanced over at you. “You’ll like this one. It’s not your usual stuff, but it’s definitely worth your time,” he said, returning his attention to the TV. You sighed softly, relieved he hadn’t noticed how intently you were watching him.
“Well, I hope this is better than my usual ‘crap,’ or next time, you won’t be picking the movie,” you replied playfully.
He turned to you with a smirk, a glint of mischief in his eyes. “Trust me, it’ll be better.”
You punched his arm playfully, and he feigned hurt with an exaggerated gasp. You laughed a little as the opening scenes started, then settled in to watch the movie. You couldn’t help but feel a sense of contentment at the turn of events; you never imagined you’d be so relaxed in his presence, or even tolerate him as much as you were right now.
But you had to admit, these past few weeks he had completely won you over. While you weren’t entirely wrong about Roman—he could be arrogant and entitled—there were times when he showed a different side. He could be unexpectedly funny and surprisingly kind, in his own way, of course.
Like that one time he randomly showed up with your favorite coffee after an absolutely soul-crushing study session. “Thought you might need this,” he said, handing you the cup with that signature smirk. You were totally floored by his thoughtfulness.
And then there was that evening where he had you laughing until your stomach hurt, spinning this wild tale about a dinner party Olivia hosted that went completely off the rails. His sharp wit and genuine laughter were so disarming, and you couldn’t believe how much you actually enjoyed his company.
In those moments, it hit you that beneath his abrasive exterior, Roman had this unexpected depth—a mix of humor and kindness that made you actually look forward to hanging out with him.
There were times you could almost picture dating him, imagining what that would be like. You found yourself daydreaming about it, getting drawn into the idea. But deep down, you knew it could never work. You were too different, and he seemed way more into girls who were, well, more outgoing.
As the movie continued, the atmosphere grew more relaxed. Roman remained lying on the couch, and you stayed seated, resting your face on your hand which was propped up on the armrest of the couch. The flickering light from the screen cast soft shadows across the room, creating a cozy ambiance. Occasionally, your eyes would drift towards him, catching glimpses of his expressions as he reacted to the movie. His casual demeanor contrasted with the intense focus he sometimes displayed, making you wonder what thoughts ran through his mind.
Throughout the movie, a maid brought popcorn and other snacks, and there were moments when your hands brushed against Roman's as you both reached for treats, sending a small thrill up your spine. Each touch, though accidental, felt charged, and you noticed how much more aware of his presence you became. Roman, for his part, seemed nonchalant as always.
He continued to make funny remarks about the film, each one making you laugh and feel more at ease. With every shared joke and casual glance, the barriers between you seemed to slowly dissolve.
When the credits started rolling, you felt a pang of disappointment—you weren’t ready for this to end just yet. Roman shifted, moving his legs off your lap and leaning back on the sofa. He glanced at you, his eyes both relaxed and intense. “So, what did you think of the movie? Was it decent, or did I just waste your time?”
You hesitated for a moment, savoring his proximity before responding. “Honestly, it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be,” you admitted, a teasing smile playing on your lips. “You might have actually picked a decent movie this time.”
He chuckled softly, the sound low and warm. “Glad to hear I didn’t completely disappoint you,” he said, his smirk carrying a hint of satisfaction.
You raised an eyebrow, meeting his gaze with a mix of challenge and amusement. “I’m sure I could have picked something better,” you replied, letting a confident edge slip into your tone.
Roman’s eyebrows shot up, clearly taken aback. “Look at you, getting all cocky. Careful now, you’re starting to sound like me.” He shot you a playful wink, his smirk stretching into a full grin that made his eyes sparkle.
You rolled your eyes with a smile, then glanced at your watch. Noticing how late it had gotten, you felt a flicker of reluctance but didn’t want to overstay your welcome.
“It’s getting late; I should probably head out,” you said, rising from the couch. As you stood up and bent over to grab your backpack, you stopped in your tracks when you heard him say, “You could stay a bit longer, you know. I’m not in a hurry to see you go.”
You felt your heart skip a beat at his words, caught off guard. You turned to look at him, seeing his usual smirk replaced by a more earnest look. His eyes holding yours with an intensity that made it hard to breathe.
“Are you sure? It’s a Saturday night. Don’t you have a party to attend or something?”
Roman leaned back, casually manspreading. “Not tonight. Parties are all the same,” he said, his gaze locking onto yours with a hint of something deeper. “Besides, I’m sure you’ll keep me more entertained than any party could.”
You hesitated for a minute, but then gave in. Nodding slowly, you placed your bag back on the floor.
“I guess I could stay a little longer.”
Roman's grin returned, a glint of satisfaction in his eyes. “Good. I promise not to bore you.” He patted the spot next to him, inviting you to sit back down.
You walked over to him, sitting beside him once again. This time, you were closer to each other than before. You felt his gaze on you as you fidgeted with your hands.
“So,” you said, breaking the silence. “What now?”
The room was silent for a few seconds before he spoke up.
“Wanna go outside? Maybe talk for a bit?” he suggested, his tone still casual.
You nodded, feeling a mix of curiosity and anticipation. “Sure, that sounds nice.”
You both stood up, and Roman instructed you to meet him outside while he went to grab a drink from the kitchen. When you reached the outdoor area, you found yourself sitting on the floor just outside the entrance to the backyard, a comfortable spot that offered a view of the expansive grounds. The Godfreys had a beautiful garden, filled with vibrant red roses that added a splash of color to the otherwise dark night.
As you kept taking in your surroundings, Roman soon joined you, surprising you by carrying a whole bottle of whiskey.
He offered you a casual grin as he uncorked the bottle. “Figured we could use something stronger than soda,” he said, handing you the bottle with a nonchalant shrug.
“I don’t drink,” you replied, looking down at the bottle and then back at him.
Roman's eyes sparkled with a mix of mischief and challenge. “Come on, just indulge in it with me for the night. You’re not going to let me drink alone, are you?”
You rolled your eyes and accepted the bottle, feeling his fingers brush against yours. You took a sip, wincing at the strong, sour taste, and coughed slightly. Roman laughed, taking the bottle from you with a smirk.
“You’ve never had alcohol?” he asked, his tone a blend of mock surprise and genuine curiosity.
You shook your head, adding, “I tried it once, but never again.” Roman’s laughter grew louder, his eyes glinting with amusement.
“Seriously? You tried it once and called it quits? I thought that was part of everyone’s rite of passage,” he said, taking a long swig from the bottle.
You glanced at him, watching as he lowered the bottle and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. He met your gaze with a grin, then extended the bottle toward you again. You took it hesitantly, feeling a mix of nerves and excitement at the closeness it symbolized.
Bringing the bottle to your lips, you took a long sip, wincing as the harsh liquid scorched its way down your throat.
Roman’s smirk widened as he watched your reaction. “Well, look at you,” he said, his tone a mix of amusement and approval.
When the burn became too intense, you pulled the bottle away and set it down beside you. Roman raised an eyebrow, noting the effect the alcohol had on you. “Not bad for a rookie,” he remarked, blending casual praise with a hint of condescension. “Most people can’t handle their liquor this well.”
“Beginners' luck,” you replied, feeling the alcohol start to make your head spin.
Roman chuckled, taking another swig from the bottle. “Sure, if that’s what you want to call it.”
Roman took another thoughtful sip from the bottle, his gaze shifting to the night sky. The conversation grew quieter as the initial buzz of the alcohol began to set in. He leaned back against the garden wall, stretching his legs out comfortably.
“So, Einstein,” he said, his tone more contemplative, “what made you want to take this job? Tutoring me, of all people.”
You looked at him, caught off guard by the question. It was a rare moment when he seemed genuinely curious rather than just provoking you.
“I guess I didn’t think it through that much,” you admitted, taking another sip from the bottle to steady yourself. “I needed the extra money, and it seemed like a good opportunity. But now, I actually enjoy it.”
Roman raised an eyebrow, his smirk fading slightly. “Enjoying my company, huh? That’s something I didn’t expect.”
You laughed softly, feeling more relaxed now. “Believe it or not, yes. You’re a lot more different than I first thought.”
Roman chuckled, the sound low and genuine. “So I’m not just a sarcastic asshole. Who knew?”
He took another long sip from the bottle, then extended it back to you. “Here’s to unexpected surprises, then,” he said, raising the bottle in a casual toast.
Since you didn’t have a bottle for yourself, you reached over and took the other side of the bottle in his hand, a small, mischievous smile on your lips. “To surprises,” you echoed.
After, you took the bottle from his grip and had another sip, you noticed how Roman was watching you with a softer expression than usual. He was still the same Roman with his sharp edges, but in that moment, you saw another glimpse of his vulnerability.
As the night continued, Roman and you enjoyed the peaceful quiet of the garden. The conversation had turned more personal, and you both began to feel more comfortable with each other.
Roman's hand brushed against yours as he reached for the almost empty bottle of whiskey. You felt a spark at the touch, and when you looked up, you caught him watching you with a more intense gaze than usual. The atmosphere between you felt more charged.
“You know,” Roman said quietly, his voice cutting through the stillness of the night, “I didn’t think I’d find myself enjoying this as much as I have… it’s been surprisingly pleasant.”
You turned to him, a spark of anticipation lighting up your eyes. “Yeah, I feel the same way.”
Roman’s gaze remained locked on yours, intense and full of unspoken emotion. There was a magnetic pull between you, and as he leaned in, the air around you seemed to thicken.
You could feel his warm breath against your lips as you both closed the distance. The kiss began as a gentle exploration, but soon grew more urgent, driven by a deep-seated passion. Roman’s hand cupped your face with a careful yet commanding touch, guiding you as the kiss deepened and intensified.
When you finally pulled back, both of you were breathless. Roman's gaze lingered on your lips, his own slightly parted and his eyes half-closed in the aftermath of the kiss. Slowly, he raised his eyes to meet yours, the intensity of his expression still present.
“Roman, I—” you started, but he silenced you with a finger pressed gently against your lips.
“No talking,” he said firmly. With a quick movement, he pulled you closer, guiding you onto his lap. He leaned in, his lips finding yours again with a renewed urgency.
As Roman's touch grew more intense, his hands roaming over your body, you became vividly aware of how wet you were. The heat between you was palpable, and each of his touches, from the way he groped your breasts to the way his fingers pressed against your ass, only heightened the sensation. The desire you had for him was undeniable, and in that moment, you needed him more than anything.
Roman broke the kiss, his lips trailing down to your neck. His touch was fervent and claiming, leaving marks. Each soft bite and lingering kiss on your skin elicited sounds from you. As he nuzzled closer, his breath warm against your ear, he whispered with a teasing edge, “You’re so sensitive.”
In the moment, his comment ignited a fresh wave of arousal. He knew it from your reaction and only chuckled against your skin as he continued to kiss your neck. His lips left a trail of darker marks around your neck and collarbones, each kiss and bite making you shiver with pleasure.
"Roman, we shouldn't-" you tried to protest, but a gasp escaped your lips.
"Sorry, what was that?" he murmured, his hands gripping your ass with a firm, possessive touch. You moaned, your hands instinctively clutching his shoulders for support.
"We can't-" you stammered, struggling to keep your composure. "Not here. Someone could see us."
He pulled back from your neck, his eyes narrowing as he looked into yours.
"This is my house," he said, his voice dripping with authority. "I can do whatever I want, wherever I want."
You tried to steady your breathing, your resolve wavering. "I could get fired if… someone finds out." You deliberately avoided mentioning Olivia’s name, knowing it would be the last thing Roman wanted to hear in this moment.
Roman rolled his eyes, clearly dismissing your concern. Before you could respond, he placed you next to him, taking you off his lap. You looked up at him, confused.
“Get up,” he instructed. Reluctantly, you followed his command. As soon as you were on your feet, Roman grabbed your hand, his grip firm and unyielding. With a purposeful stride, he guided you through the house.
His steps were steady and commanding as he led you through the stairs of the house, the warmth of his presence a constant reminder of his intensity. You followed closely, your heart racing with a mix of anticipation and excitement.
When you reached the study room, he opened the door with a slam. The room was dimly lit, the soft glow of a single desk lamp casting long shadows over the walls lined with hardcover books. The air was thick with the scent of old paper and wood polish.
Roman locked the door, then turned and walked up to you. He placed his hands firmly on your hips, pulling you closer as he kissed you again. You wrapped your arms around his neck, kissing him with a newfound confidence that surprised even you.
You couldn’t believe how well you were handling all of this. Being with Roman had consumed your thoughts for weeks. You were grateful he’d offered you that alcohol, because without it, you wouldn’t have had the confidence to push things as far as you had right now.
He guided you to the large desk in the room, stopping to push everything off the surface with a swift motion. Then, he lifted you effortlessly, settling you onto the desk. You let out a soft chuckle, wrapping your arms around him and drawing him down to kiss you once more.
You pulled away, your fingers trailing down his neck as you began unbuttoning his shirt. As you eased the fabric off his shoulders, you couldn’t help but be captivated by his shirtless form. His physique was mesmerizing, with broad shoulders and a sculpted chest that drew your gaze and held it.
“My turn,” he said, his voice low and commanding. His hands pressed against your chest before he ripped the buttons from your shirt with a swift motion.
The suddenness of his action left you momentarily stunned, your eyes dropping to the remnants of your blouse scattered on the floor. Before you could fully process what had just happened, Roman’s cold hand grasped your face, his fingers firm as he tilted it upward, forcing you to meet his intense gaze.
“I need your full attention on me and only me, understood?” he said, his voice commanding and unwavering.
You gulped and shook your head, feeling a mix of anticipation and nervousness. Roman responded with a few soft slaps to your face, each one sending a rush of excitement through you. His touch was both assertive and reassuring.
"Get off the desk," he instructed, his voice smooth and commanding. You complied, slowly sliding off the desk and turning around to face away from him. The anticipation of what would come next heightened every sensation.
Roman's hands rested on your waist, his touch sending a shiver through you.
His fingers worked with deliberate precision, first unfastening the button of your jeans. He then slowly eased down the zipper, each motion filled with teasing intent.
He smirked as he noticed you trembling slightly, the thrill of the unknown clearly affecting you. He grasped the waistband of your jeans, slowly guiding them down over your hips and legs, until they pooled at your feet. Once the jeans were discarded, he tossed them aside, his gaze lingering on you, savoring the moment.
You were wearing a matching light pink underwear set. It was simple, but to Roman, it was far from ordinary. As he took in the sight of your body, he felt his cock twitch in his briefs, a clear sign of his arousal.
You looked over at him innocently from your shoulder, the sight of your exposed skin, coupled with your subtle, shy smile, stirred something primal within him.
He quickly unhooked your bra in one try, his breath warm against your ear. "I'd love to tear these panties off you," he whispered, his voice a seductive murmur, "but they look too sexy on you. I can't bring myself to do it."
Before you could respond, he delivered a sharp smack to your ass, making you lose your balance and slightly bend over the desk. A wicked smirk spread across his lips as he positioned you exactly how he wanted. With deliberate slowness, he unclamped his belt, his gaze locked on you, filled with a mix of anticipation and control.
He placed the belt on the table, and you glanced at it, your mind racing with the possibilities of what he might do with it. The ideas you had in mind only heightened your arousal. You heard the sound of his zipper being lowered, followed by the rustle of him removing his pants.
He brought a hand down to your underwear, feeling the warmth of your folds through the fabric. You let out a soft gasp, holding on to the edges of the desk.
"You're already so wet for me, and I haven't even fucked you yet," he said with a low chuckle. He continued to tease you through your underwear, making you squirm.
"Roman, please—"
“Please what?” he asked, feigning innocence.
“Please… I need you,” you begged, your voice barely a whisper.
He smirked, savoring the control he had over you. “You need me, huh?” His fingers continued their slow, deliberate torment. “Beg a little more, and maybe I’ll give you what you want.”
You shuddered, your body reacting to his touch. “Roman, please,” you repeated, your voice desperate.
He leaned closer, his breath hot against your ear. “Tell me exactly what you want,” he murmured. “I want to hear it from your lips. Make me believe you need it.”
“I want to feel you in me. Please,” you said, your voice trembling with need.
He didn't say anything back; he simply pulled your underwear to the side and began teasing you with his fingers, slow and deliberate, enjoying the way you squirmed under his touch. His eyes locked onto yours, watching every reaction, every shiver, as he continued to push you to the brink.
You gripped the edge of the table tighter, closing your eyes as waves of pleasure washed over you. “I need more,” you gasped.
"You’ll take what I give you," he rasped, his touch lingering and relentless. Each teasing caress drove you closer to the edge, and when you arched your back, moving yourself down to his fingers, he couldn’t resist any longer. In one swift motion, he yanked your underwear away, the sudden roughness making you gasp in shock. And then, without hesitation, he was inside you, claiming you in a way that left you breathless and exposed.
Roman’s rhythm was unrelenting as he rocked back and forth inside you. You clung to the edge of the desk, each thrust sending electric jolts through your body. His grip on your hair was possessive, yanking it back to expose your neck as he pounded into you with fierce intensity. The only sound you could manage were breathless thanks, murmured between gasps, as he drove you to the edge.
His movements remained fierce as he shifted his grip from your hair to your neck, applying just enough pressure to make you gasp. He pulled you closer, your face brushing against his as he whispered harshly, "You're so fucking hot." The intensity of his words matched the force of his thrusts, leaving you breathless and consumed by the moment.
Roman’s movements suddenly ceased, pulling out of you as you gasped, confused and panting. “What happened?” you asked, turning your head to look at him. His gaze was intense as he commanded you to place your wrists behind your back. Obeying, you heard the distinct sound of his belt being lifted from the table. Moments later, you felt the cool, expensive leather wrapped around your wrists, binding them securely.
He turned you around, guiding you to sit on the table. “I want you to watch me leave you dripping in cum,” he said, his voice low and commanding. The words hung in the air as he positioned himself to fully take in the sight of your submission.
As he thrust into you again, you arched your back, unable to suppress the moan that escaped as he hit the spot that drove you wild. Your frustration at not being able to scratch his back only heightened your arousal. He gripped your waist tightly, driving into you harder and faster. The tension between you both was intense, and you were on the brink, your body betraying the closeness of your climax.
When you let him know you were nearing the edge, he abruptly grabbed your face, forcing you to meet his gaze.
“Keep your eyes on me, or I’ll stop,” he demanded, his voice heavy with desire. You struggled to maintain eye contact as the pleasure tightened in your stomach. Finally, with one last, intense thrust, you both reached the peak, your climax overwhelming as you both succumbed to the moment.
He leaned forward, both of you breathless and panting. As he removed the belt from your wrists, you wrapped your arms around him, feeling his hands still resting on your waist as you steadied your breaths. “That was… amazing,” you murmured against his chest.
Roman’s smirk was faint but genuine as he lifted your chin with a firm hand, making you look up at him. “And you won’t forget it,” he said, his voice a low, seductive purr. He sealed his words with a deep, lingering kiss, his eyes never leaving yours.
“I’m looking forward to our next session.” He said, with a sly smile.
