He fucked her ass, holding her close, sucking and nibbling at her neck, desperate to come. To fill her asshole with his cum. The instant she’d gotten her period, he’d been so disappointed. He’d hoped their first time together had resulted in her getting pregnant, but he had to get used to not always getting what he wanted.
He wanted her all the time.
Craved her.
She was the only drug he wanted. Instead of becoming sated by her, all he wanted to do was claim and own her as his. He wanted everyone in town to know she was his.
He’d talked to his father and Theodore had told him one thing. When you wished to claim a woman so passionately and desperately, it meant only one thing … he loved her.
There was no doubt in his mind his feelings for her. But he didn’t have the first clue how to tell her. How did he tell the only woman he had ever loved that he wanted to be with her, especially when they hadn’t put any kind of label on this?
Pulling himself back into the moment, he groaned as her ass fluttered again and Eliza sent herself into a second orgasm, this one seemingly more powerful than the last. It felt good to feel her lose control, and he wanted to be with her every single step of the way as she did.
He held her in place as he started to fuck her a little harder, making her take his cock. She pushed back, taking him deeper and when he came, he flooded her asshole with his cum.
They both moaned and cried out together. The sounds filling his room were the only ones he ever wanted to hear. Afterward, he collapsed against her, wrapping his arms around her, keeping her locked tight against him.
“I think I can get used to this,” she said.
“Feeling my dick in your ass?”
She chuckled. “I think we need to have a bath.”
“You’re right.” She didn’t elaborate on what she’d said, and he wasn’t willing to push her, not until she was ready. “I’ll go and run us a bath.”
He eased out of her ass and didn’t linger to see his cum spilling from her hole. Filling the tub with water, he added in some soothing salts and then turned the light off after lighting some beautiful candles.
Once he walked back into the room, he didn’t wait for Eliza to get up. He picked her up in his arms and carried her through to the bathroom.
“I can walk.” Her giggle was so cute.
“I know, but where’s the fun in that for me when I love to hold and carry you? Give a guy a break here and let me take care of you.”
“You don’t always have to take care of me, you know. I can take care of myself.”
He eased her into the water and then joined her.
“This is nice,” she said. “I can’t believe you enjoy snuggling.”
He wrapped his arms around her. “Would you believe me if I said I’ve only ever enjoyed snuggling with you?”
“Hell, no. There’s no way I could believe you.” She looked back up at him with a smile. “Really?”
“Yes. You’re the only woman I’ve spent the time to get to know and enjoy the company of. I love being with you, Eliza.”
“I love being with you.”
It was on the tip of his tongue to clarify what he actually meant when he just didn’t want to spoil the moment.
Neither of them had made a real commitment.
Come on, you fucking asshole, tell her exactly what you want.
He didn’t want to fuck it up. That was the last thing he wanted to do.
Holding her hands, he locked his fingers with hers. “Do you ever think about kids?” he asked.
She tensed in his arms. “Kids?”
“Yeah, a family.”
“I don’t really think about it.”
“You were supposed to think about what you’d want in life,” he said. “You know, the kind of future you’d enjoy.”
She’d been spending a lot of time with Lilly the past couple of weeks, in between work and the nights with him.
“I don’t know. I think I’d like to help people. Kids, you know. Being with Lilly, it kind of inspires me. I’m thinking about setting up a place where kids can go, but again, I don’t know how it’s going to work.” She sighed. “I’ve got to put a little more thought into it.
“I can ask my dad to talk to one of the councilmen.”
“No. I’d like to do this, James. If you don’t mind.”
“I’ll be here for you, always, and my family.”
“What was it like having a big family?”
“Crowded.”
“Seriously?”
“I wouldn’t be who I am without my brothers. You know that, Eliza.”
“I do. I think you were incredibly lucky to be with your family.”
“I know but I’m also lucky to have you.” He kissed her neck. “Don’t sell yourself short.”
