“I won’t make you a promise I’m not sure I can keep, Rocky, but I promise to make sure you and our baby are safe. Always.”
I believed him and when he cupped my face and pressed his forehead against mine, I knew we were in this together. I’d have to make sure that if it came down to it, I’d be the one who took Genesis out.
In another life I might have deserved a man like Lasso, even if he was in a biker gang. Excuse me, motorcycle club. He was truly a good man and I’d put him in an impossible position and he just went with it. Rolled with it like it was totally fucking natural to be tangled up with a crazy fucker like Genesis.
I rested my forehead on his chest and breathed, “I can live with that. For now.”
“Good, because I can’t handle your tears.”
I lifted my head and rolled my eyes. “Typical male. Wants to go up against a psychopath but you’re afraid of a few drops of salty water.”
I laughed and when he pulled away, I reached for him, pressing my mouth to his and letting myself get lost in him. In that moment, I could pretend we had the potential to be something more. I could pretend that when his hands went to my hips and pulled me onto his lap, pressing me against his steel hard cock, that we were making love. That we were celebrating something deeper than the basic desire to come.
“Are we doing this?” he growled.
His big hands were on my tits, cupping them while he pinched them between his thumb and forefinger and I arched into him. His mouth dropped to one breast, sucking it through the thin fabric of my t-shirt and I let out a hiss, arching to feed him more of me.
“Seems like we are,” I purred. “Is that a problem?”
My hips moved on their own, sliding back and forth along his cock, desire flooding my veins until it was the only thing I could think about.
“Not when you do that,” he ground out between clenched teeth.
“What about this?” I grabbed the hem of my tank and pulled it over my head, feeling my nipples harden at his heated gaze. While Lasso stared, I stood and got rid of my shorts and panties, standing there and feeling like a supermodel at the way he was gawking at me.
“I guess I’m on my own,” I said playfully, teasing his gaze as I slid one hand down my belly and between my legs, tossing my head back.
“Fucking tease,” he growled and got to his feet, scooping me in his arms on his way to the bedroom. I touched myself while he took off his clothes, feeling my fingers get wetter at his inability to look away.
“Rocky.”
I smiled and pretended he was mine. “You’re too far away.”
With his wild blond hair bouncing as he moved, Lasso knelt on the bed between my thighs and pulled me closer. “Don’t worry darlin’, we’re about to get really close.”
And then he was inside me, making me feel good, making me forget the world for a little while.
Making me wish for more.
Making me scream his name until I passed out in his arms.
This had to be the calm before the storm. With my fucking luck, it just had to be.
Chapter 14
Lasso
I used to think waking up next to a woman was a sign of dark things to come, things like commitment and picket fences. But waking up beside Rocky was an experience, always. She was soft and warm, and she smelled so goddamn good I had a hard time tearing myself away from her. But mornings like this, after we spent the whole night wrapped up in each other, I woke up with a big shit eating grin on my face.
Rocky’s face was buried in the crook of my neck, her lips and tongue sliding against my skin as one hand slid up and down my chest. One hand instantly went to her ass and pulled her flush against me. “Good morning.”
The purr of her voice vibrated against my skin and set my nerve endings on edge and when she kicked her leg over me to straddle my hips, my cock grew even harder. “Good morning to you too.”
“Shaping up to be,” she shot back with a smile in her voice, hips grinding on me in a hypnotic circular motion that had me on the verge of snapping. Her pussy slid across my cock, sliding around my balls and I groaned.
“You didn’t get enough last night?”
“I didn’t,” she purred and sat up as the tip of my cock breached her slick opening. “But I’m eager to find out how much is enough.”
