Oh fuck.

She was soaked.

“Shit …” I groaned.

When I slipped another finger in, she gripped my shoulders, our lips losing contact as she sucked in a breath. I pushed in and out of her faster, harder, watching her chest rise and fall with her quick breaths, and tiny moans left her body.

She was glorious, eyes at half-mast, lips slightly parted, breathing rampant and shallow. She bit her lip to prevent her moans from escaping, resting her forehead against mine. “Charles …”

I grinned. I’d never get tired of her calling my name. I wanted her to scream it louder. “Baby, take it. I want to see you come apart.”

I knew when I hit her sweet spot because her head fell back and her eyes clenched shut.

It didn’t take long for her breathing to accelerate and for her to spasm against my fingers, finding that climax that sent her soaring.

And what a damn glorious sight to see. She was beautiful, head lifted, neck stretched to the ceiling. Her fingers dug roughly into my back, and there was no doubt I’d have marks tomorrow.

When she was finished, she collapsed into me, head tucked into my neck, panting. I decided that was the sexiest sound she’d ever made, and I wanted to hear her make it often.

When her heartbeat slowed to a normal pace, she pulled back, bit her bottom lip, and smiled. “What’s happening?” she whispered, shy all of a sudden.

Wewere happening.

She stared down between us, my painful erection pushing against the seam of my pants. “Your turn.” She reached for the buckle of my pants, but I stilled her.

“Not now.” I tipped my head back against the headboard and pulled at her hand.

“Oh.” Her eyes went wide.

Then, I knew the moment that she thought I was rejecting her because her face fell, and she got up, taking the towel with her.

I gently pulled her down. I wasn’t like her ex. I imagined he was a take, take, take kind of guy. I wasn’t going to take her here. I wanted to wine and dine and romance her first.

“Can I just hold you? Just hold you for tonight?”

Her smile was small but sweet, her eyes lighting up. After a tip of her chin, her cheek rested against my chest, and I held her through the night, our breathing in sync.

I couldn’t remember a time I’d slept so soundly.

Chapter 25

Becky

Three days had passed since I’d snuck out of Charles’s room before the girls got up for school. Since then, we had been doing the same routine every day. Same but different because Charles’s hands were on me every chance he got. When he handed me my coffee in the morning, he pulled me in and nuzzled my cheek. It always sent my heart into crazed flutters, but it was the best good morning a girl could ask for.

This switch in our relationship was welcome but scary, beautiful and unnerving. I felt like I was going to turn into a puddle of goo on the floor from his affection. Like when he kissed me while I scrambled eggs, or every time I went to the fridge, he’d reach for my waist and pinched my side. He was playful and loving, and I couldn’t wait until our date tonight.

What hadn’t been discussed fully was how we would tell Sarah and Mary about us.

We’d touched on it briefly, but we hadn’t gone into detail. That was something that Charles would have to take on. We already knew that Mary would be adaptable, given that she was so young. But Sarah … we both worried about Sarah.

As I was frying the bacon, Charles grabbed me, hugging me from behind. “I just love how my mornings have changed. I don’t want to go to work.”

He kissed my neck and held me close. At one point, he took my hand holding the spatula, and we fried the eggs together.

“I can’t wait for our date tonight,” he said, causing goose bumps to form against my skin.

His lips went from my neck to my shoulder, and I exhaled a heavy sigh. Being with him, our new day-to-day was a dream I never wanted to wake up from.
