On the road, I get a text from Clint and have the car read it to me. “Great dinner last night. I want to sign the papers to move forward with the investment. And you are a lucky man. Lily is a hell of a woman. Talk later.”
I laugh and smack the steering wheel in celebration. This is it. The thing I’ve been waiting for—the thing we’ve all been waiting for. It’s finally here. I debate getting Beau on the line, but…I want to share this with just Lily for now.
After a pit stop at the cute bagel shop downtown, I race back home, eager to tell her the good news. When I open my bedroom door, her snores are fainter now. As much as I hate to wake her, I cannot hold this in. So, I kiss her lips and she starts for a moment, before melting against me. “Good morning.”
Lily yawns. “Good morning.”
I proffer the bagels. “Peace offering for waking you?”
“Mm,” she snatches the bag, “you can wake me with bagels and iced coffee anytime.”
I chuckle and undress, slipping my sweatpants back on before getting into the sheets. Meanwhile, she’s halfway through her sesame and cream cheese by the time I join her. “Guess what.”
“Hmm?” she asks around a mouthful.
“Clint texted. He wants to sign the papers for the investment.”
“Oh my god,” she says, half choking. After knocking back more iced coffee, Lily smiles. “That’s wonderful, Cormac. I’m so happy for you.”
“He says you’re a hell of a woman, and I agree.”
“Aw. Flatterers, both of you.”
But I shake my head. “Not flattery. It’s the truth.”
Something uncanny fills her eyes and she sets her food aside, which has me worried. She was way too into the food a moment ago for this to be anything less than serious. “Cormac, I think last night was a mistake.”
“No.”
She sighs and can hardly look me in the face. “I don’t…with the kids and Abigail—
“They love you already. What’s the problem?”
“I couldn’t take it if they ever hated me. Ifyouever hated me.” Her sadness wrecks every bit of joy I had a second ago. “This was a mistake. I can’t do this—
“And I can’t stop,” I said, kissing her to make her worries disappear. If she pushes back, I will stop. If she says it again, I’ll back off. But instead of pulling away, she climbs on top of me. I’m out of my sweatpants and hard for her in a flash. But before she straddles me, I break the kiss. “Lily, if you mean any of that—
“I don’t know what I mean. All I know is I want you. I want this to be real. And I’m scared of what that means.”
“Why are you scared?”
She worries her bottom lip for a moment, before admitting, “Because I haven’t felt like this before.”
I’m elated to hear it, and I kiss her without another thought. She straddles me, already wet. As soon as our bodies crash together, our sounds fill the room. Her warmth soothes me in ways I never knew I needed. The slide of her body on mine is intoxicating. It’s all I ever want to feel. As she rides me, her tits bounce in my face, but I want to watch her lips as she moves. Pursing, gasping, quivering. I run my hand up to her cheek and graze my thumb over her open pink lips, but she is too deep inside of herself to notice much of anything else.
It’s then that I wrap my arms around her, needing her closer than she could be. To feel her pressed against me. She takes my face in her hands and kisses me, and every thought fades into nothing. All but one.
I love Lily Olson. It’s too soon to say it to her. But I vow to spend each day showing her in a hundred different ways.
Her chest flushes and her sounds grow ragged. When she clenches on me and her body locks up, I take over, bouncing her on me. She unleashes herself, lost to her orgasm. My new favorite event. As she stills, I roll her over, staying deep inside of her. Her hair has gone wild over my pillow like a halo, and each whimper and moan is ecstasy. In the morning light, she’s the angel of my bed.
Rolling myself into her, there is little I can do to hold anything back. My body, the words I long to say to her. I want to give her everything of me. Every sound she made sends my blood roaring. When she grips my forearm, eyes wide on mine, I know she’s close again. She pants, “Baby, I’m—
“Yes, do it,” I tell her.
Her eyes flip back as she groans and writhes beneath me. I can’t stop now. That trapped pressure shoots heaven through my body, and there’s no holding it back. As I come, I clench around her, needing this and so much more. I kiss Lily for the pleasure of it and to keep my mouth from saying something that could scare her away.
