“They were right to worry, but it has been handled,” I said to make him feel better about it listening to what he was told.
Tim glanced up at the night sky and smiled. “You know, I was so angry at your father and even my grandson that day. I knew they both played a part in driving you away. But I was damn proud, too. You didn’t give up, roll over, and take the little that was given to you in life. You went out and found better and did it on your own terms. I am so damn proud of you, sweetheart. Walking away for a chance to better your life took courage when you had no reason to have any. I will never forget how brave you were that day, or how alone.” He moved his gaze to his grandson then. “You take care of her the right way this time, or I’ll buryyour body so deep in the ground they’ll find an oil pocket where you used to exist one day.”
Tim walked back to his house after that and James rubbed my shoulders under the blanket he’d pulled up around us and under my chin. “It’s safe to say my grandparents love you more.” His ensuing chuckle made me laugh, too. It was a wonderful feeling to be loved and cared for.
“I love you, too, Cass. I think I always have, in my own way, and I don’t see that ever changing.”
I snuggled into him deeper and leaned up enough that I could pull his face down to meet mine and kiss his lips. “I hope it never changes,” I whispered against them as I pulled away.
“Let’s get you back to the house.”
24.ANOTHER TASTE
KNUCKLES
Surprisingly,Cassidy wasn’t tired when we got back to the house. She was feeling rather frisky. “I’m sorry about last night,” she said.
“What happened last night?”
My woman giggled. “It’s more about what didn’t happen. I can’t believe I was too tired to even make out with you when I really, really wanted to.”
“Cass,” he whispered against my lips as he sifted his fingers through my hair, “Goldilocks,” he added reverently before he wrapped his hand around a chunk of my hair at the base of my head and tugged teasingly. “There’s no need to apologize. I wasn’t disappointed in the least. I got to hold you in my arms last night, which is something I refuse to take for granted.”
“Aww man, you can’t be sweet like that when I want to get dirty with you.”
“How about we compromise?”
“What exactly does compromise look like in this scenario?” I asked.
“It looks a lot like me getting another taste of your sweet pussy, but up and close and personal instead of second-hand from my drenched fingers.”
“Oh God,” I breathed the words.
“Nah, just your man, but I promise the experience will be damn near holy.”
She chuckled again as I laid her out on the bed and removed her shoes and then her pants and underwear.
“Oh no! I just realized I haven’t shaved down there in forever because it hurts to bend,” she said as her hands flew up to cover her face and hide her embarrassment.
“If you think a little hair growth is going to stop me,” I started to say and then decided to lighten the mood. “Holy Sasquatch!” I yelped and she pulled her hands away from her face and threw a pillow at my head.
“You’re an asshole, James Davis.”
“Never claimed otherwise, but I am the asshole who loves you and this wildly hairy pussy.” Cass was a very light blonde-haired woman and the curtains matched the drapes. “You do realize that you’re a blonde and not very hairy to begin with, right?” I didn’t want to compare her to other women, especially out loud, but she had absolutely nothing to be embarrassed by. “You should watch some porn from back in the day when everyone refused to shave or even trim up, that will make you see how beautiful you are in your natural state.”
“You’re doing a lot of talking for someone who was supposed to put his mouth to better use,” Cassidy sassed.
I didn’t hesitate to dip my head and lick right up the center of her. The moan that came from her as I did made my dick harder than a fucking diamond. I dined at Cassidy’s pussy until her legs quivered, she flowed like a river, and I thought I heard her beg the Lord for forgiveness for whatever kept her from heaven before. My ego inflated right alongside my dick.
I slid up her body and kissed her mouth with my damp lips. “Can you handle me right now? I need to be inside you, Cass.”
“Please,” she whimpered. “I need that, too.”
I slid inside her molten core and felt like I too had finally been granted access to heaven. “Cassidy,” I groaned into her neck as I pulled back torturously slowly and held there with just the tip of my cock between her folds. When her eyes finally popped open and locked with mine, I drove back in at a snail’s pace and reached between us to tease her overly sensitive clit some more. “We’re going slow this time,” I told her.
“Why?”
“Don’t want to hurt you.” I slid my hand up to trace over the puckered scar where the bullet exited her body and the doctors had to sew her back together. “You are mine to cherish and this is how I do it for now.”
