Devon listened as her breathing deepened. He gritted his teeth when she wiggled her ass against the hard-on he’d had since he first laid eyes on her.
He needed to start fixing the problem with her mother as soon as possible.
He knew the type of person she was and guessed she was either destroying the house or selling things off. First, he’d have one of his guys check into her financials and see if her grandmother had left a will. Until then, he’d try to get as much information out of Emma as he could and protect her and her aunt until he could take care of her mother.
God, Emma’s mother was a piece of work, and he hoped she was doing something illegal so he could put her behind bars. So far as he knew, she hadn’t broken any law, but he also knew if he dug deep enough into the bitch’s life, he’d find something to nail her on. He just hoped it wouldn’t upset his Emma.
Fuck, he’d had her for less than twenty-four hours, and he already thought of her as his. It scared him how quickly and deeply she’d already sunk into his soul. He’d never had a woman do that before, and to the depth she had.
He’d had a few long-term relationships before, but something always seemed to be missing. After meeting Emma, he knew it was because the women he’d known were always independent. Never seemed to need him, and each wanted parts of their lives away from him. One had loved to travel, and since he usually had to work, she’d go with friends. Another wanted several nights a month to go out with just her girlfriends and party. Yet another one had been so selfish and self-centered she hadn’t wanted to help her mom when she got older.
He’d heard about Big/little relationships for a long time but never thought it would be something he would consider until he saw firsthand with Cason and Lacey how deep their bond grew and how much she depended on him.
That was what he knew he’d been missing, and after meeting Emma, it solidified his assessment. Now, he wanted them to get to know each other and determine if that type of relationship would work for them.
If she were anything like Lacey, he’d snatch her up and never let her go. So far, she seemed to be like every other little he’d met since moving to Arkansas and starting his business.
Now, all he had to do was keep her safe, and he’d do that no matter what.
