“Declan, my sweet. Leave her alone. She’s trying to help.”
“I can help ye both,” he said, sliding his hand over my hip but out of his mother’s view. I stop chopping and do my best not to react, but I can’t help myself. I tilted my hips giving him more to grab then I go back to my chopping. As soon as I finished, Declan took a seat on a stool at the kitchen island and watched. I set the knife down on the cutting board and walked past Declan, running my hand over his arm.
I felt his powerful muscles coil under my hand. “You’re going to miss me when I’m gone,” I whispered, walking away from him and to the sink to wash my hands.
He stared at me like I had an extra head. Did he think I’d stay here forever?
“Is there anything else I can help you with?”
“I’m fine. That’s everything.” I nodded and walked straight out of the kitchen without looking back. As soon as the kitchen door closed, I leaned against the wall to catch my breath. I heard his mother comment,” Boy, ye better be careful. I want little ones.”
“Oh, I’ll give them to ye.”
Chapter 10
Declan
A week. I made it a week without sneaking into her bedroom and taking her for myself. After I went into the barn after the wedding, I fucking ripped my stitches attempting to do some work. I had to head into the hospital when my mother spotted my shirt covered in blood. I didn’t miss the look of concern on Silvia’s face, but she schooled it quick, shrugging and rolling her eyes.
I stood in the barn, thinking about her leaving. I knew it was coming soon, but with the rains pouring down for the past two days it wouldn’t be for a couple of days. I wondered if I could let these feelings go or would I do what I had to do to keep her.
“Hiding out, Cowboy,” a soft voice said from behind.
“Silvia, what are ye doing here?” I growled, spinning to look at her. Could she look any more beautiful? Her long hair was wet from the rain, and her face was flush as if she ran in here.
“Fuck, dude, are we having déjà vu? Well, let me repeat I’m a grown woman and I can be wherever the fuck I want,” she spat out, moving to stand inches from me. Did she understand the danger she was in?
“Watch that pretty mouth of yers and remember what I said if ye kept it up.”
“I’m not afraid of you. What are you going to do?”
“Don’t test a man on the edge. Ye have no damn idea how bad I want to fill ye up with my cum until it’s dripping out of yer little cunt.”
“Next time you threaten me you better bring it, cowboy. I’m not going to tolerate it for much longer.”
“Is that a challenge, little one,” I growled, pulling her close to me.
“Hmm…just like last time.” She tugged herself free of me. “But time’s winding down, and I have better things to do than argue with you. Liam is taking me sightseeing tomorrow,” she bragged with a tilt of her head.
“The fuck he is. Did ye really think I’d let that happen? I’ll bury him if he puts a finger on ye. If ye want to see Ireland, I’m the one to take ye,” I roared, closing the distance and dragging her back into my arms. Forgetting about anything else, I slid my hand up her back until I cupped her neck, feeling her pulse as I brought her mouth to mine. My other hand wrapped her around her waist, sliding my hand under the jacket. Fuck, she was so damn tiny. For now, my brain drummed. The thought of filling her with my baby never left my head.
She reached in front of her and unzipped her jacket, and I helped take it off. Damn, she had on one of my shirts. “What’s with this?”
“I was cooking in the kitchen, and your mother didn’t want my nice clothes to get messy. She pulled this out of the laundry. If you want it back you better take it,” she challenged.
“I will, little one. Fuck, I will,” I groan against her lips, kissing them again unable to stop from tasting her. She had the hint of chocolate on her tongue, and I sucked it off. Hearing the moan come from deep within her sent me over the edge of sanity. No more wasted moments. “But not now.” I pulled back because this wasn’t the place for our first time.
“You are an asshole, Declan! Is this because this is Regan and yours spot?”
“Are ye nuts? What the fuck? I barely kissed her once. And don’t go starting yer shite since I know ye were engaged.”
