I close my eyes and my fingers trail across my juices, rubbing lightly at my swollen button as tears trail down my cheeks. Gagging on his robust length, I feel his slick rod swell in my mouth. He taps at my cheek.
“Baby, I can’t stop. Please,” he begs.
But I ignore him, slurping along his dick until he grunts and I feel the salty, masculine taste of him hit my tongue. I swallow, gulping greedily until I’ve got every last drop and I pull off of him with a pop, wiping at my cheeks and chin.
He collapses to the couch, sweat dotting his lean forehead and cheeks. “Shit! That was amazing! Fuck, I love you!”
I still, my mind frozen on those words. Those very big words that he doesn’t seem to notice he said.
He stands and grabs his clothes off the floor. Something goes off and he scrambles to grab his phone from the end table he threw it on. “Fuck! I’ve got to get ready for work. You go ahead and take your time, have fun tonight and I’ll see you as soon as I get off work.” His firm lips land on mine and I can’t stop myself. I cling desperately to him and my mouth opens under his. His tongue drifts along mine lazily and then he breaks free, the smile on his mouth dazzling to behold.
“You’re the most amazing woman I’ve ever met.” Then he wanders off to take his shower and I fall to the couch, confused and strangely numb.
Until panic washes over me. He can’t be in love with me. I can’t be in love with him. It’s too soon. Too much. I want to experience things. I want to be free to be who I want to be.
I hear the water running and scramble off the couch, reaching for my clothes on the floor, shoving hands and feet in them quickly.
I need to get the hell into my room before he comes out. I need a minute to clear my head.
I head for my own room and scuttle inside, slamming the door behind me like I’m running from a criminal.
After all, I think the man is a thief because I’m almost positive he’s stolen my heart.
CHAPTER 12
Sarah
The next morning, I wake and take quick shower and I’m packing my things, trying to keep my head on straight.
Should I stay? I don’t know. What I do know is that if I stay I may never leave. That is not something that I think I’m ready for. I don’t think. Maybe.
Jesus! I don’t know what I’m doing anymore. I thought I knew what I wanted but my head is fighting with my heart here.
I want my freedom. I want to experience more in this life than I did with my husband under his thumb.
But most of all, I want someone to care about me. Really care about me.
I just don’t see how that could be Leon. He’s gorgeous, smart, dedicated, honorable and a great father. But he’s not mine. He can’t be mine. He’s too good for me.
The doorbell rings and my body stiffens, freezing in place. But there’s nobody here but me to answer the dang door.
I step out into the hall and duck down the stairs quickly, pausing by the door. Pressing a hand to the door, I argue with myself, not really sure if I should answer someone else’s door. It feels wrong. Rude.
But I open it and then wish I hadn’t when the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen is standing there, staring at me like I’m a complete surprise. And not a good one.
“Hello?” She says coolly. “Who are you?”
“A f-friend of Leon’s and Penny’s,” I say softly, trying to hide my face behind my short curls. Which doesn’t work well at all.
She smirks and her honey-brown eyes glitter with laughter. “Ah! I believe they’ve mentioned you. The woman that Leon took in off the street because she had nowhere to go.”
Hurt slashes at my heart and it takes all I’ve got in me to keep from wincing at the vicious pain. “Right. Did you need something? Nobody’s here but me.”
“They left you here alone?” Her eyes narrow and she runs them up and down me. “Surely that’s not smart. They don’t know you at all. You could be a thief.”
“So could you,” I smart off, flushed, my stomach tightening into angry knots.
She leans on the door and smirks at me. “They know me. I’m not some strange woman who got thrown out of her hotel and kicked to the curb. I’m Penny’s mother.”
