The desire in his voice was sexy and rough. I tried to lean back into him, but he held me still. He pressed his naked body to mine, and we locked eyes in the mirror.
Without even touching me, my nipples hardened, and his eyes grew wide. I nodded my head and watched as he slowly slid into me and held onto my hips. I felt every inch of him and groaned with pleasure. He pumped in and out of me staring into my eyes so intently I almost came from just his look. His hands held my hips tightly massaging the bare skin. The sensations rolling through my body caused my knees to buckle, and I had to hold into the counter for support. My climax hit me so fast I used a towel to drown my cries. He bent over me and kissed my shoulder blades increasing his pace, and I knew he was close. I wanted to kiss him so desperately, but I was mesmerized watching us.
He was gorgeous, and it was totally hot the way he owned me at this moment. I wiggled against him, and he groaned loudly. His grip tightened, and I watched as he released. It was completely erotic.
“Happy fucking birthday to me.”
“Yes, honey, happy birthday.” I whisper back.
Chapter 51
Collapse
I can’t pinpoint what exactly is bothering me, but my stomach is in knots. I should be home studying, but I promised the guys I would come to this festival for a few hours and help out. I graduate in three and a half weeks, and there’s a shitload of work for me to finish up. The week has been crazy with the release of the article now referred to as “Raven’s Redemption.” I felt bad that my story overshadowed Sayge, but the guys assured me it was all one in the same. I was no longer seen as the villain but a victim. My bodyguard still followed me around school and stopped people from approaching me, which I was thankful for. The same people that hated me last week now wanted to be my best friend.
I drove today separately since Declan had to be here early for rehearsal. This festival is being held at a state park about thirty minutes from Nashville. There are four local groups playing before Sayge goes on stage tonight. They opened the gates two hours ago, and the park is already overcrowded. I find the backstage entrance and walk around trying to find my crew. I find them on the left side of the stage, and my instincts go on alert.
There are several girls surrounding Declan waiting for autographs. What bothers me is he is signing their bodies. One girl steps up to him and leans over for her to sign the lower portion of her back. I stay back and watch for several seconds until a blond removes her shirt. As soon as she starts to lower the cups of her bra, I fly to his side.
“Hey baby, whatcha doin?” I purr into his neck.
He wraps his arm around me and kisses me lightly, surprised at my immediate appearance. “Signing autographs.”
At least he has the decency to look guilty.
“Excuse me, I’ve been waiting for an hour. You need to get in line.” The busty blonde points behind her and gives me a dirty look.
I look her up and down and make a point to move my left hand across Declan’s chest. Her eyes grow wide when she sees my wedding bands, but she doesn’t put her shirt back on.
Instead of getting mad, she starts smiling at me. “Oh my God! You’re the girl from the video and magazine article! You’re Raven!
Shocked by the change of events, I try to back up but she gets closer. “Wait till I tell my friends I met you. They are going to die. At first we thought you were a bitch. But when the article came out we saw you two together, we knew you weren’t. You’ve got like the coolest love story ever! Oh my God, can I have your autograph?” She’s gotten so close I can smell the beer on her, and she’s pushing her chest to me.
“Um, I guess but I’m not signing your boobs. Declan, can you grab me a poster or something.”
He moves away and comes back with book marks I made up with the summer tour dates. When she walks away, she still hasn’t put her shirt back on. The girls still in line heard the entire exchange and crowd around Declan and me. We both sign and talk to them for half an hour until Jay rescues us and leads us back to the sectioned off area for the bands.
“Declan, my dear husband, do you want to tell me why you were about to sign that girls breasts?”
“Another tit hit? Man where was I?” Cooper joins us.
I raise my eyebrows at Declan waiting for an explanation.
“Sparkle, I wasn’t looking or touching them. These girls wanted my name on their skin. Can’t help the awesomeness.”
The awesomeness? Is he serious? One look at his face and I know he’s only semi-joking. I realize there is a small window of opportunity to get my point across. I untuck my shirt and start to lift it. I don’t get it farther than my stomach when I’m caught in his arms.
“Put your fucking shirt back down.”
“No, babe, I’m going to ask Cooper to sign my stomach. Then I’m going to find Blake and Nate and ask them to sign somewhere on my back. And I’m going to tie my shirt in a knot so when I walk around for the rest of the day everyone can see.”
“The fuck you are. Put you shirt back down.”
We go into a stare down, and I break it by laughing at him. “Same applies to you, Dec, no more. Got it?”
“Damn her ass is full of sass, glad I didn’t piss her off.” Copper interrupts us.
I pull my shirt back into place and smirk. He’s less than amused. I sit down and grab Jay’s agenda for the day. There are still a few hours until Sayge plays, and the schedule has them doing an interview and general public autographs before they perform. I grab a box of their posters and go to help Jay set up the table. Declan follows behind me with his arms full of stuff too.
