The house looked small from the outside, but I couldn’t wait to make it a home with Piper and our daughter.
Taking a deep breath, I headed toward the house and followed Piper inside. I shut the door behind me, taking in every inch that lay before me. She was right. The housewassmall. But I liked it. It was perfect.
As soon as you entered, you were brought to an open concept which held the living room and dining room. The kitchen was off to the right with an island separating it from the rest of the large room. You also had to walk up two steps to reach it.
“I like it,” I finally said.
Piper placed Brynn in her playpen and turned to me. “Yeah? It was fixed up a bit, but the backyard is huge. When Brynn gets older, she’ll love it.” She walked to the large patio door leading out to the back of the house.
I joined her, standing behind her and following her gaze. There was a sandbox, a swing set, and a shed. “It needs a pool.”
Piper looked up at me. “I agree but I can’t maintain it myself. That’s why I haven’t gotten one yet.”
“I can do it.”
She stared at me. “Really?”
“Why not?” But I knew the reason she was questioning me. We never did put a label on what we were doing. Hell, I never even wanted kids but when I found out she was pregnant with my baby, I wanted to fuck more babies into her. She had been the only one who could ever reach a part of me I never wanted to give to anyone else and I could never thank her enough for that.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” she asked, her voice lowering.
I pinched her chin, placing a soft peck on her forehead, nose, and then I hesitated before placing one on her mouth.
Her breath caught. Snaking her arms around my neck, she pulled me closer.
Wrapping my hand in her hair, I pulled her head back and deepened the kiss. This, this right here was the reason I survived. With her mouth fused to mine, it was the only thing I had been itching to come home to. Beside our daughter, Piper was my very existence.
She was the reason I made it out of jail alive.
She was the reason I didn’t give up.
She was the reason Ilived.
I swallowed her moan, taking in every inch of her mouth. Her breaths were mine. I consumed and breathed her in, reveling in the way she felt in my arms after all of our time apart.
Piper broke the kiss, leaning her head to the side, her chest rising and falling.
I took that as a hint and brushed my mouth up the length of her neck.
“Jaron,” she whispered.
“Yeah,” I murmured against her throat.
“We can’t.”
“I know.” But it didn’t mean I couldn’t tease us a little. Running my hand down her back, I cupped her ass and pulled her flush against me. Making sure to push every inch of me into her, I wanted her to feel how my body reacted to hers. I didn’t want her to doubt for one single second that I didn’t want her as much as she wanted me.
“God,” she panted. “It’s been way too long.”
“It has.” I scraped my teeth along the length of her jaw. “I’m going to have so much fun getting reacquainted with your body.”
“When Brynn goes to bed, we can…we can continue,” Piper suggested softly.
I responded by placing a peck on her nose but we both knew that we needed to wait. Didn’t we? Wouldn’t it be too soon to jump right back into bed when that started our problem in the first place?
Piper pushed out of my hold, but she didn’t get very far. I grabbed her arm and pulled her back against me.
“We can’t do this here.” But she didn’t push away from me again.
