“It took a little convincing, but she’s willing to concede that her daughter is an adult that can make her own decisions.”

“I’m glad to hear that man,” Neil said genuinely. “If she makes you happy, then I want you to be happy.”

“I’m happy,” I said. “For the first time in a long time.”

“Alright, enough of this girly feelings shit,” Neil said, standing up to leave. “Get back to work Bradley.”

I laughed and bid him goodbye before immersing myself in the hundreds of emails glaring at me from my computer screen. I spent the next few hours rifling through what I needed to get through before picking up my phone to call Penny. My dick ached in my pants while I tried to remember the last time we had even been close. It had been a few days since the roof top. That was when everything had gone awry for a short period of time.

Penny answered on the second ring.

“Hello?”

“It’s me,” I said. “Is everyone gone for the morning?”

There was a moment of shuffling around on the other end of the line.

“Yes,” Penny said. “Alyssa went out to meet up with Scott. My mom just left a few minutes ago to have lunch with a friend here in Chicago. I’m about to jump in the shower.”

I hardened instantly at the thought of Penny wet and naked in the shower. I powered my computer back down while I grabbed my coat.

“I’m coming back,” I said. “I’ll be back there in fifteen minutes max.”

“Are you sure?” Penny asked, baffled. “I mean, we have all the time in the world. It’s not like we have to sneak around anymore.”

“That may be true, but I need you. I need you right now. I’ll be there soon. Don’t even bother getting dressed.”

The fifteen-minute drive back to the condo was pure agony. I shifted uncomfortably in my seat while I stared out the window moodily at the traffic that only worsened because of the lunch hour. I opened the passenger door before William could even put the SUV into park.

“Thanks, William,” I said shortly. “If I need anything, I’ll give you a call. Not sure if I’ll be heading back out.”

William nodded at me. “Sounds good, boss.”

The smell of fresh soap filled my nostrils the second I walked in through the front door. Tossing my keys, wallet, and phone carelessly on the little table next to the door, I hurried down the hallway while I loosened my tie.

Penny sat on the edge of my bed with a bottle of lotion in hand. All rational thought left my brain when I took in those long, toned legs that peeked out beneath the towel that was wrapped around her securely. Her long blonde hair was still tangled from the shower.

“Wow,” she breathed, shaking her head at me. “That was fast.”

I tossed my tie to the floor, and I closed the bedroom door shut to lock it. Penny swallowed thickly as she slowly stood from the edge of the bed. Desire sparked in her eyes as I loosened the cuff links at my wrists before working on the buttons of my shirt. She waited motionlessly next to the bed while I undressed with confidence.

The second my erection was free from the tight confines of my boxers, I let out a relieved groan. I kicked away my pants and boxers while Penny slowly unwrapped her towel from around herself with a mischievous smile tugging at her lips. My lips were on hers the second that the towel dropped to the floor around her bare feet.

Our naked bodies pressed up against one another’s—all hard lines and soft curves. Desperation filled me while I ran my hands along every inch of her, absorbing the softness of her smooth skin. We tumbled sideways into the bed in a tangle of legs and arms. I pulled her body up against mine to center ourselves on the bed.

I kissed every inch of her skin that I could, while Penny squirmed beneath me in pleasure. Our moans were growing increasingly loud and frantic, and her hands tugged at my shoulders in wordless need. I sucked a taut pink nipple between my lips, teasing it. Then I eased my hard cock into the slick and hot core of her.

We both let out a satisfied groan. My hips jerked in response to the need to move against her amazing body. I strained to keep the pace slow, to savor the feeling of her underneath me, now that we had all the time in the world to explore each other. I gritted my teeth in effort as I tried to pull myself back, but Penny’s thighs squeezed my hips tightly. She arched up to push herself against me with a trembling gasp.

I couldn’t think past the heat and tightness that bore down on my erection. I braced myself against the mattress to pound into her, until I felt those tight muscles spasm with the beginning phase of an orgasm. The rest of the world faded away. The only things I could concentrate on were the sensation of Penny arching up against me with a sharp cry of pleasure and how those muscles milked me into my own soul-shattering release.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR – PENNY

Nothing in the world would ever replace the feeling of Gabriel pressing up against me intimately. The realization washed over me while I clung to his shoulders to ride out the pleasure pulsing through my body. He consumed me in every sense and surrounded me with strength and warmth.

He collapsed against me with a sated groan. The tips of my fingers and toes continued to tingle from the aftermath of our lovemaking. I strained my ears out of habit to hear if Alyssa was nearby before it hit me again that we didn’t have to worry about it any longer. Even if Alyssa found it weird, she accepted the relationship because she just wanted us to be happy. I wanted to cry with relief because it meant that I could have my best friend still. I also had my mother’s acceptance. Everything would work out just fine.

“You okay, Penny?”
