Sighing, he thought about what I was saying and nodded. “Perhaps your father figured you’d return to Montana.”
“I never told him about the necklace. He saw me wear it but never asked where I’d gotten it. I was so young that I doubt he thought I remembered. He certainly tried to push her out of my mind, removing every picture. Her clothes and every personal effect vanished from the house before we made it back to Montana. He told me later it was because he didn’t want me to suffer, but I knew better. He damaged me so much.”
He pulled me tightly against him, lifting my chin. “You’re special, Amelie. Don’t forget that.”
His eyes were momentarily filled with sadness. “I know you were in love with her, but you need to let Belle go. She’d want you to move on with your life. Wouldn’t she?”
“Yeah, she would.”
“The guilt is eating you alive. Do you ever talk about what happened with the others?”
“Not all of us. We’ve avoided it like the plague, everyone but Gage leaving town for as long as possible.”
“You need to talk about it. If you’re feeling this way, don’t you think every man is feeling the same way you are?”
“Not all of us.”
“That’s why you hate Colt?”
“I hate him because he didn’t react at all after the tragedy, as if it was no big deal.”
Sighing, I tried to find the right words.
“My mother was the world to me, Maverick. She was the light to my darkness. My father never paid us any attention, but she was the one who read me stories and played with me in my room. She took me shopping and made the holidays special. I felt like a real princess. When I lost her, I was so empty inside that I didn’t cry. I didn’t say anything. I was numb and went through the drudgery of life.”
“With a cold asshole as a father.”
“Yes. I was sent away to school for a few years. Honestly, that helped. It wasn’t until the necklace arrived that I shed a tear. On that afternoon, I shed thousands, sobbing until I fell asleep from exhaustion. Why I’m telling you this is that everyone grieves differently. Just try and remember that.”
When he managed to smile, I slowly lowered my hand to his cock, stroking the tip. “You’re a very naughty woman.”
“Uh-huh.”
“You’re also one of the smartest I’ve ever known.”
“Don’t you forget it either.”
“Come here,” he instructed, beckoning me with a single finger.
“Who, me?” I moved onto all fours, straddling his body.
“No more teasing. If you do, I’m certain I can think of some very creative methods of punishment.”
I crawled further up, remaining on my knees. When I leaned down, he took the opportunity to roll me over, quickly dumping me onto all fours. Without any hesitation, he drove his cock into my pussy with enough force I was thrown forward.
“Oh, my God. You’re so mean. So mean,” I murmured as waves of pleasure jetted through me.
“Something else for you never to forget.” As he fisted my hair, all I could do was smile. He thrust hard and fast, the sound of his skin slapping against mine in perfect rhythm. Sam lifted his head, his tail thumping twice. Then he fell back asleep. The entire scene made me smile.
Maybe this was what normal was all about.
When he pulled out, I held my breath, knowing exactly what he was going to do. The second he pressed the tip of his cock against my asshole, I tensed. Then with tenderness, he slipped it inside, taking his time while my muscles stretched to accommodate his wide girth. I closed my eyes, slipping into a beautiful fantasy as he drove another couple of inches inside.
The pain was glorious and fleeting, but I couldn’t stop shaking. As the wetness grew between my legs, my inner thighs slickened, he thrust the entire rest of his shaft inside. Every animalistic sound he made fueled the fire between us, yanking us out of the sadness and guilt, worry and frustration.
In those few precious seconds, being lost in another human being was the sweetest feeling in the world. He pulled out, every sound he made creating another wave of tingles. Then he plunged again.
And again.
