The truth is, being with him has made my life a million times better. All the stress and worries I always carry have been lifted off me. He took them all away and then went and took care of Grams too. My controlling, possessive husband is a little bit of a knight in shining armor.

“I’ve missed you so damn much.” He presses kisses all over my cheeks and then neck, his mouth going anywhere he can get it.

It’s nice to hear that he misses me. The only person who ever gave a crap about me is my grams. I’m really falling for this man. He’s breaking me down with his sweetness. Giving me things I crave deep inside.

I should have been happy he was avoiding me. Instead I was hurt and pissed. Might have been a touch horny too after I knew what it felt like when his mouth was between my legs. My body wanted more.

I want to tell him I missed him too. It’s on the tip of my tongue. How does it feel both right and wrong for me to miss him? Everything inside of me is a jumbled mess.

“Can we go home?” I ask.

“We can do anything you want, sweetheart,” he says before he’s kissing me again.

I kiss him right back, hoping we will be doing a lot more than that when we get back to the house.

ROMAN

I stand in the doorway of Ace's room. Fawn closes the book she’s reading him from the side of his bed. The kittens are fast asleep already.

“Do you need anything else, honey?” She pushes Ace’s hair off his forehead.

“No.” He lets out a yawn, his eyes falling closed. He fought the urge to fall asleep the whole book, wanting Fawn to finish reading it to him. He’s getting attached to her. I understand that more than anyone else.

“Okay.” She leans down, giving him a kiss on the forehead. “Love you,” she whispers to him. I want to grab the words and keep them to myself. Will she ever look at me with that softness in her face as she said those words? Even if she did, I don’t deserve them.

She stands, pulling the blanket over him. When she turns, she stops for a moment when she sees me. I step back out of the doorway so that she can go by. When we got home, all I wanted to do was drag her up to our bedroom, but Ace was on us the moment we walked in.

We played a few games in the kitchen while Fawn made cookies. As much as I wanted her in bed, all of us being together tonight was fun too. We actually felt like a family. I didn't know how much I truly longed for that. I knew I wanted her, but I never thought about the family unit as a whole.

“Hey,” she says, shutting Ace’s door. She leans back against it. I reach out and brush my thumb across her cheek. To my surprise, she tilts her head, leaning into my touch, letting her eyes fall closed. “I’ve missed you,” she says so softly I almost don’t hear it.

Fuck me. I let out a groan, grabbing her and pulling her in my arms. She doesn't resist me. In fact, she wraps her legs around me, laying her head on my shoulder as I carry her to our room. I’m so pissed at myself. Five days I put not only myself through this shit but her too. I have to do better if I want Fawn to truly be happy here.

My knees almost give out when she presses a kiss to my neck then another. Don’t rush, I remind myself. Slow and easy. Her words about me being her first are still rolling around inside my head. I want inside of her more than I want my next breath, but not yet. I want her body craving me and the things I can do to it.

I slowly let her go, enjoying the feel of her soft body rubbing against mine as she slides down the length of me until her feet hit the floor. She lets out a small gasp when she realizes my cock is pressing into her.

Pink blooms across her cheeks, but she licks her lips and doesn't pull away, letting me know she wants this as much as I do. But still I remind myself that I need to take my time. Even though my cock begs to differ, wanting to slide into her heaven right now.

“Can I make you feel good, Fawn?” I brush my thumb across her lips. She puckers her lips and kisses it. My cock jerks at the sweet innocence that is her.

“Yes, please.” Her words cause a rumble to come from deep in my chest. Her eyes go wide.
