Page 42 of His Claim

“Oh yeah.”

“Positive?” I asked softly.

“My dick wet from your pussy and my come inside you? Fuck yeah, baby girl. I’m great.”

Well then.

“Okay,” I whispered.

“You good?”

I closed my eyes and sighed. “Never better.” And I hadn’t been. Not five years ago. Not when Murphy had left me, and I figured out my life.

Right here, right now. This was the best I had ever been, and I hoped that feeling never went away.

Chapter Seventeen

Murphy

“What else was on your list?”

Tatum shrugged and popped the last of her brownie into her mouth. She was perched on top of the kitchen island, wearing my shirt. Only the bottom three of the buttons were done up, and each time she moved, I got a glimpse of her tits.

Life was fucking good right now.

Nothing outside of these cabin walls mattered.

It was half past midnight, and we had finally surfaced from the bedroom to find some sustenance.

“Name one thing,” I urged.

“White Spruce,” she blurted.

I tipped my head to the side. “A tree?” I laughed.

“No,” Tatum giggled. “It’s a restaurant I heard Jeanie telling some people. She said they had the best eggplant fries and smoked meatloaf. I had figured we could get dinner there, but,” she cleared her throat, “you had other plans.” Her cheeks blushed pink, and she pressed her thighs together. “Not that I am complaining.”

I set my cup in the sink and stalked to her. She spread her legs, and I moved between them. I cupped her face and studied her eyes. “You think of me?”

“Uh, what?”

“Did you think of me all of these years?” I clarified. “Five years is a long time.”

She blinked rapidly. “Uh, well, yeah. I tried not to, but I could never forget you.”

I believed her. I had pushed her away because I didn’t want to get caught up in my life, but also because I knew I could and would lose myself in her.

I had wanted to find someone to spend my life with, but with Tatum, I realized I needed her. That scared the shit out of me.

I had never needed something in my life before.

Want, yes. Need, no.

I ran from that.

Now, I was ready to run straight to Tatum.

She wrapped her legs around me and pulled me to her. “You look pretty serious right now, Murphy. What are you thinking?”
