“Because you wouldn’t.”
Because I wouldn’t make love to her. That’s what she means. I glare at her but I can’t be angry at her because I fucking love her. I want her to remember this. Because I will. Every damn night of my lonely-ass life because there’s no damn way there will ever be another woman for me.
And I move slowly at first, until I feel her loosen up, her pale cheeks flush with pleasure, her stunning eyes darken with desire. Her long legs wrap around my waist and then tighten, her heels digging into my ass as I feel little pulses in her slick heat.
In and out, so slow and steady until she’s begging me, pleading for me to move faster.
“Please, Merrick. Faster, harder. I need you.” Her soft voice sobs as she clings to me, her floral scent drifting around me, clinging to me.
And I don’t stop. Harder. My hips push into her fluttering pussy so hard that I start pushing her up the bed and she doesn’t care. She screams and thrashes around me, her nails digging into me and her eyes rolled back in her head. I can’t stop. I need to claim her.
I thrust hard one, two, three times and then my thumb circles her clit and she bows up like she’s in pain. Her mouth opens on a silent scream and then she shudders, her fingernails embedded in my skin, leaving her marks on me.
My dick jerks in her wet warmth and paints her slick walls with my seed. I fall to the bed and groan, my eyes closing, my arms wrapped around her so tight that she gasps out, laughing.
“I can’t breathe, Merrick.”
I settle her on my chest and her breath immediately slows, her eyes closing. “I love you, Onyx.”
She smiles but she doesn’t say anything and I think she’s asleep, her breathing even and deep.
I’ll tell her in the morning.
CHAPTER5
Onyx
On the flight in the morning, tears trickle down my cheeks and I look out the window, hiding it from the strangers all around me.
Hide my pain and sorrow. My shame.
I crept out of Merrick’s bed, out of his arms like a damn thief in the night.
But I couldn’t let him tell me again that he loves me. Or I would never be able to leave him.
And I have to leave him. Have to go home and face this mess head on.
And then hopefully come back to find him. But until I’m free I can’t stay.
I pull my phone out and grimace when I see all the missed messages from Carter.
Baby, I love you, come home.I snort at that one.
You have to come back. I need you.
If you don’t come back right now, Onyx, I’m going to make sure that your parents are arrested for embezzlement.
That was the one that got my attention. Because he’d do it.
I sigh and drop the phone, almost pulling up the picture that I took of Merrick when he wasn’t looking.
But it’s too soon. I don’t want to think about how he’s going to feel when he wakes up and I’m gone. I never told him where I live. Never told him anything personal.
I did tell him the name of my jewelry business and I hope he’s forgotten so that he can’t trace me with that.
“Would you like a drink?” A flight attendant smiles at me and holds up a sparkling water but I shake my head. I hold my hand over my stomach. I feel sick.
I close my eyes and put my head back, letting my mind drift to last night. To making love to Merrick. The tears come again, welling up and over my lashes.
