“Oh wow… This makes so much sense now. I couldn’t for the life of me figure out why the change of heart? After all these years, why would they want to join forces? I can’t believe they would do that to us. I hated you for so long. I never thought… I guess, I just… I needed time to cool off, and once I did, you weren’t at school anymore.
“At first, I tried to pretend like it didn’t bother me, but then people started talking, saying you had left town. I couldn’t ask anyone about it. Where you were? If you were coming back? I spent years thinking you’d come back for me.”
“I’m sorry, kitten. I just wanted you to make a life for yourself. A life that you wanted. I learned that you were working for your grandfather after you’d graduated college, I didn’t want to fuck up your future. I figured if I came back into your life, it would end your career. If they didn’t allow us to be together in the past, why would they allow it in the future? I couldn’t do that to you. Not when I know you worked so hard to get there.”
“If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have this career.”
He swept the hair away from my face. “I’d do anything for you. I knew I broke your heart, and there was no coming back from that. If there was one promise I was going to keep it was that one. After I graduated from college, I stayed overseas managing our international companies. I didn’t want to come home. I didn’t have one anymore. You’ve always been my home.” He looked deep into my eyes. “I spent years trying to figure shit out. Who I was, what I wanted, where I was going to end up?”
“When did you come back to Kentucky?”
“I was in and out throughout the years, but I didn’t move back until a few years ago.”
I took in everything he was saying, my heart breaking for him. He inhaled a deep breath, grabbing my face to kiss away my tears.
“All I did was work. I was exhausted, mentally, physically, and emotionally. One day I woke up calling your name. I rolled over searching for you. It was the weirdest fucking thing that’s ever happened to me. I hadn’t been with you in years, and I woke up thinking you were there, beside me. I immediately sat up in bed disoriented, looking for you, and then I remembered you weren’t there. You hadn’t been there in a long time.”
“If I would have known. I would have never let you leave, Tristian.”
“It was either you or me. You had a whole life there. With two loving parents, your brothers, your family… I couldn’t take that away from you. I left because it was easier than taking you away from them. Can you forgive me?”
“Of course, Tristian. All you did for me… How am I ever going to make it up to you?”
“You already have.” He kissed me. “You said, ‘I do.’”
His lips on mine were like coming home every single time.
He possessed my thoughts.
He owned my heart.
He was my home.
He’d always been my home.
“You’re so fucking beautiful,” he groaned, placing his hand over my heart which was beating rapidly against his fingers.
“It’s yours.” I reached for the hem of my dress and lifted it over my head, and threw it on the floor beside us. “I’m yours. Always.”
“Kitt—”
“Don’t make me beg.”
He growled, kissing me fervently. He lifted me into his arms and carried me into the bedroom. He laid me on the bed, never breaking our connection. He took off my bra, tossed it aside, and my panties quickly followed, leaving me completely naked for him.
“I love you. I love you so fucking much.”
“Prove it to me,” I panted, looking at his face. “Make love to me,” I pleaded in a raspy tone. “I belong to you. I’ve always belonged to you. Let’s make a baby.”
He kissed me one last time before kissing his way down my body, softly licking every inch of my skin.
“Tristian,” I murmured, my body shuddering as he pulled my body to the edge of the bed.
Gently, he kissed my inner thighs, blowing against my exposed core the closer he got to where I wanted him the most. His rough hands gripped my thighs as he lightly pecked my clit. My hands raked through his hair as I spread my legs wider for him as he lightly kissed and licked all around my heat. He could already taste me on his tongue. My breathing escalated when he sucked my clit into his mouth, moving his head from side-to-side.
He never took his eyes off me, watching as I grasped onto the sheets. My climax built higher and higher, and he slid his fingers inside. I was so wet.
So ready.
