She screams and I roar as my dick jerks several times during my release. Her body clutches tightly all around me, locking me into place.
We lay there until our breathing evens out, and then I roll off her. I turn onto my side to face her and brush my lips against hers.
“What are you doing here, Marco?” she whispers as our lips brush.
“I relocated.”
“Here?” she asks, pulling back.
Smirking, I reply, “Yes.”
“Why?”
“Family business.”
She goes silent and closes her eyes.
“You don’t seem too happy about that.”
“I don’t know what this means, Marco.”
I brush my palm over her cheeks and then push a tendril of hair from her face.
“What do you want it to mean?”
She sits up and drops her head into her hands. She resists when I reach for her and try to pull her down again.
“You can’t pull me in and out of your world like this, Marco. It doesn’t look like it, but I have a life now.”
“Why did you let me in then? Why let me in your body as you did if you’re so committed, Piper?”
“The shit between Kenneth and myself isn’t so cut and dried. It’s convoluted, okay?”
“Meaning?”
“Meaning that he isn’t innocent himself and....”
“Why the fuck do you put up with him then?”
She whirls on me. “Because unlike you, he is good to me, Marco! He has given me a safe, stable, and secure life. He loves me. No, he isn’t perfect, but he’s what I need at this stage in my life.”
I watch as she gets up to go to the bathroom. Fear fills my insides because this reminds me of the last time she kicked me out of her life.
How can I argue with that when I know I’m not ready to commit to her the way she deserves? She deserves more than I can give her right now. To pull her into my life right now might destroy her.
I’m unsure if I have enough time before she’s lost to me forever.
