We quickly made our way upstairs. I texted Sym and told her I was heading out in case she woke up and needed me for anything. Deciding to Uber home, I drove Shalom’s car. While we drove, she held on to my hand. I prayed for her, and the sight of her tears broke my heart. When we arrived, she thanked me for the ride and praying for her, as if I was going to leave. I told her I’d stay with her until she heard word about her father, and that got me another hug.

It didn’t matter how things were between us—pleasing and serving women made me most feel like a man. There was no way I could leave her to handle this alone. When we went inside, Heaven was the first person we saw. They rushed into each other’s arms for an embrace. She informed us that their mom, Lydia, was back in the emergency room with Roger, but he could only have one person back there with him at a time.

We all sat down, and I faded to black, allowing Shalom to connect with her sister. Her hand gripped my thigh, and I guess that was her way of staying grounded. About two hours passed before Lydia came out. When she saw me, her body rocked. I could understand the reaction. Heaven and Shalom pressed her for answers, and that was the only reason she pulled her eyes away from me.

“He has fluid on his lungs, and they want to run more tests on his heart, so they will be keeping him and putting him in his own room. That’s all they’ve told me so far.”

“But there’s obviously something wrong with his heart for them to be saying that,” Heaven said, and I realized both she and her sister were overthinkers.

“Maybe, or maybe they just want to be safe,” Lydia said.

“I’m going to Google it,” Shalom said.

“Don’t do that, Lom,” I urged. “Google will diagnose him with the worst thing possible. He’s here and in good hands. For now, let that be enough until his doctor gives you answers.”

Blinking back her tears, she nodded and made her way into my arms, burying her face in my chest. I ignored her mother and sister staring at me. I wasn’t sure what she’d told them about us, if anything. I didn’t really care about that, though. I’d stay here for as long as Shalom needed me to—and beyond.

Ididn’t want to leave my parents at the hospital, but they insisted Heaven and I go home. Honestly, I was surprised my mother was even there. With the divorce, I didn’t think she’d be there for times like this. The fact that she was showed me that even though she made the choice to live life without him, her love still tied her to him. I loved that for them. Heaven and I agreed, but promised her we’d be there tomorrow to relieve her. Heaven would be there in the morning, and I’d go that evening.

Mecca drove me home and said he would Uber from there, but I asked him to come inside. It wasn’t just because I didn’t want to be alone… I didn’t want to be away from him. Before Heaven called, I was ready to see how far things would go between us. At that moment, I didn’t care about how things ended between us. I only cared about our present and how much I wanted him inside of me.

“Make yourself comfortable. I’m about to take a shower,” I told him after showing him around. It didn’t take as long to give him a tour of my three-bedroom apartment as it took him to show me his five-bedroom home. When he told me he was waiting for his wife to decorate it, I could have melted in his arms. I knew I wouldn’t be that woman, but for a brief second, I allowed myself to pretend I would be.

“You need help with that?”

Turning, I caught him staring at my ass. His eyes heightened slowly, and when they connected with mine, he smiled.

“With… taking a shower?” I confirmed.

“Yeah.”

Twiddling my thumbs, I thought about his offer for a while. My mind was screaming for me to say no, but the pieces of my heart that had always belonged to him were screaming yes.

“Yeah.”

His head tilted and brows wrinkled, as if he wasn’t expecting that to be my answer. “Yeah?”

Chuckling, I lifted my shirt over my head and tossed it into the hallway before saying, “Yes, Mecca. I want you to help me in the shower.”

A few seconds passed before he followed me down the hall toward my bedroom. When we made it to the bathroom, the weight of the moment began to settle within me. I thought fear would consume me or even unsurety, but that wasn’t the case. My heart wasn’t racing anxiously; I was calm. He waited until I cut the shower on before he pulled me into his arms. I forgot how much I loved being there. How safe I once felt there. Our lips connected, and I released a content sigh, just like the first time we kissed earlier.

I loved this man—still.

Insecurity crept in and told me I was a fool, opening myself up to a man who once hurt me, but I’d deal with that later. Right now, I needed grown man Mecca to make love to me. He seemed to be on the exact same wave because he stopped kissing me and frowned, breathing raggedly, before connecting his lips with mine again.

We discarded of each other’s clothes before he lifted me and placed me on the counter. He was the only man, in my life, that I’deverhad sex with without a condom. Tonight, we became one with no boundaries again. I shivered as he stretched me with his long, perfectly curved dick. It was bigger than before… so meaty and pretty with a large vein from the shaft to his head.

I was mesmerized by the sight of him hiding himself inside of me.

“You still love watching this pussy hug my dick?” he asked breathlessly.

All I could do was nod as I bit my trembling lip. I was afraid moans would pour if I opened my mouth. That curve started to hit my spot instantly. Flinging my head back, I tried to keep my legs open, but they started to tremble.

Moans started to pour from him, and they were the sweetest melody. I alternated between panting and moaning his name as my trembling legs locked against him. He commanded I look at him, and as soon as our eyes locked, things took a deeper turn. My left leg extended, and he placed my ankle on his shoulder. With me slightly slanted and hanging off the counter, he pulled my chest to his. Sweet affirmations left his lips as he stroked me slow and deep.

I came quicker than I ever had before.

My orgasm urged his.
