Drawing Lessons

He made me feel things I didn’t come here to feel.

I was expecting a classroom, figure models, other students. A paunchy, balding art teacher who couldn’t make it as an artist.

I found none of that.

Instead it was just me in a picture perfect studio, dappled with light and shadow. And a gorgeous teacher … who also doubled as the figure model. When the figure model wasn’t me.

I thought I’d sit down, start sketching, while away a pleasant Saturday morning and forget all the troubles lying in wait for me back in my real life.

Instead, he asked me to draw blue. All I could manage was grey.

Then he sent me away.

But you don’t survive in my world by giving up that easily ...

I was warned away from her.

Her parents are powerful. Her ex is powerful. All her life she has colored inside the lines. I want to teach her everything I know about art … and pleasure.

I want to paint her, too. Every inch of her. The lush curve of her hip. The graceful arc of her neck. The way early morning sunshine spills across my bed and onto her cheek.

I can show her how to see herself in a new light. How to peel away some of that reserve and release the passionate woman hiding inside.

It’s only a matter of time before I break her, though. Do something unforgivable, crush her wings, smash to bits her carefully scripted life on the shoals of my selfish desires. I’ve done it before.

So I send her away.

But I am a weak man.

I know I will let her come back.

I know I will beg her to come back.

Drawing Lessons is a sizzling hot story of forbidden desire, twisty-turny intrigue, and sensual—oh so sensual—pleasure.
