I look back to Jim and offer a weak smile before walking toward the car with Connor.
The drive is silent; I’m not quite sure what to say. I asked my boyfriend, who happens to be my husband’s boss, to rescue me from a date so awful beyond words with my husband. To his credit, Connor must sense that I’m not ready to speak, his only form of communication being his large hand on my thigh. He gives me a gentle squeeze every few minutes, his silent way of letting me know he’s here.
I’m so in love with this man, and it’s terrifying me. I shouldn’t be this far gone with someone who wasn’t supposed to be serious. That was the deal I made with myself, wasn’t it?
Chapter Fifteen
CONNOR
I was with Alannah when I received the text message from Hadley. I was dreading tonight all week, and Alannah told me to come over for dinner. We had just finished eating when my phone dinged with the message. The moment I read those words, my stomach dropped.
A Mhuirnín:
Hey, I’m sorry to bother you. I know you had plans tonight, but if you can, can you pick me up from Providence, and can I stay with you tonight?
I see her standing with her head on an older man’s chest, shoulders shaking with sobs. I’ve never wanted to simultaneously hold someone in comfort while wanting to obliterate someone else like I do right now. My pulse thumps with my growing rage. Not at Hadley, but at that bodach. How could he do this to her? I may not have expected this, but I’vefallen so madly in love with this woman. I will do whatever it takes to make her mine and only mine.
I pull up to my house once the gate opens and park in the garage. I let myself out of the driver’s side before walking around to Hadley, opening the door and holding my hand out for her to stand. Taking her hand, I lead her inside, making it to the kitchen before I turn to her.
“Did you have dinner?” I ask, giving her a stern look.
I know for a fact she has a habit of not eating when she’s upset. I refuse to see those luscious curves wither away because he’s upset her yet again.
“No, but I’m not really hungry.” She gives me a small smile. “I had a few glasses of wine and then drank my weight in water in case I needed to walk home when I decided I needed to leave.”
“Fine,” I concede. “But if your stomach growls, you’re getting mac & cheese.” I give her a look that saysI dare you to argue.
“Thank you, baby.”
She raises on her tiptoes, wrapping her arms around my neck, fisting the hair at the nape to pull me closer. She presses her mouth to mine, her tongue swiping at my bottom lip, urging me to open to her. I part my lips, giving her the illusion of control, as if I’m allowing her in. Before she has a chance to react, I slip my tongue into her mouth, taking over. As I deepen the kiss, my hands slide down to cup her ass and lift her into my arms. I step toward the closest wall and pin her against it. Her legs instinctively wrap around my waist, and she tugs my hair, trying to keep me close. I pull back for a breath.
“What do you need, mo ghrá?” I bend to press my lips against her neck, swiping my tongue across her pulse. I nip at the sensitive flesh, knowing she won’t be able to hold back an audible response.
“You, baby.” She throws her head back and gasps. “I. Fucking. Need. You.” She pants each syllable, a darkness present in her eyes I’ve not seen before tonight.
She looks like she wants to be fucked into oblivion.
“How fond of this dress are you?” I smirk at her.
The gleam in her eyes tells me all I need to know. I carefully place her on her feet, keeping her pinned against the wall. My hands travel up her hips and over her soft curves, one hand cupping her breast, teasing her pebbled nipples through the fabric. My other hand travels further to her neck, gripping with just the right amount of pressure to hear the involuntary gasp leave her mouth. My grin widens as I take her in.
“You. Are. Mine,” I growl, the words sounding almost animalistic.
The hand that was on her breast moves to the scoop of the dress she’s wearing. My fingers glide down and, grabbing the fabric with both hands, I tear it from her breathtaking body, revealing her bare chest and the worst excuse for panties I’ve ever seen. The tiniest strips of lace and elastic to ever exist barely cover her, and the sight of them sets my body on fire. Dropping to my knees, I slide my tongue along the length of her slit, flicking at her sensitive nub through the thin material, causing a moan to pass her lips.
“Yes. Yours,” she breathes just as I tear the panties from her with my teeth.
Still on my knees, I lift her legs onto my shoulders, burying my face in her luscious cunt. I lap at her swollen clit in languid strokes as she arches her hips toward me, grinding her pussy onto my face, seeking more. I slide a hand underneath her, pressing a thick finger inside her opening as she rides my face. The moans become shouts of pleasure as she quickly finds her release, my face covered with the proof of her climax. I lower her legs back to the ground and stand in front of her again, a smirkpulling at my mouth when I see her legs trembling. When I press my lips to hers, she deepens the kiss, taking me in, our tongues swirling together. She moans into me the second she tastes the evidence of herself on my tongue.
Hadley’s hands move in a rush to my slacks. My belt is unbuckled, trousers unbuttoned, and the zipper lowered before I have a chance to catch my breath. Breaking the kiss, I watch her as she pushes the slacks down my hips onto the floor like they’ve personally offended her. I chuckle, stepping out of them.
Cupping her ass, I lift her into my arms, her toned legs wrapping around my waist once again. I start walking toward the bedroom, needing to be in hernow. Her eyes haven’t left mine, and I can tell she’s thinking hard about something.
Bet I can help to clear her mind,I think smugly.
I make it to the bed, tossing her gently and enjoying the sight of her perky tits bouncing. I go to grab a condom when she grabs my wrist.
“I haven’t been with anyone but you since this started. I’m clean and I’m on birth control.” She pauses. “We don’t need to use them, if you don’t want to.”
