“It’s not your fault, it’s mine. I should have listened to you.” Tears started leaking from her bloodshot eyes again.
With her still in my arms, I pulled her down onto the bed. “Tell me what happened. How did he find you?”
She sat up on the bed and crossed her legs under her. She kept her eyes locked on her fingers that she was twisting together while she told me everything that happened.
I felt anger swell inside of me. I wanted to kill that mother fucker. How could he hurt her again? Why couldn’t I stop it?
I pulled her back against my chest and hushed her. I let her cry until she was sound asleep against me. I couldn’t sleep, though. I was too blinded by hate to let sleep come. I laid back, watching the room grow darker and darker. The only thing I wanted was to find him and end him. I couldn’t let him hurt her again.
Hours later, Lennox stirred. She looked at me in the darkness. “Did you sleep any?”
I shook my head, not trusting my voice to talk. I knew that if I opened my mouth, she would hear the sharp edge in my voice and it wasn’t meant for her. I couldn’t let her think I was angry with her. It was him I wanted.
“Mason, I’m so sorry,” she whispered, laying her head back against my shoulder.
I couldn’t let her sit and apologize. She hadn’t done anything wrong. She was simply living her life. I rolled us so my body was covering hers. “It’s not your fault, stop apologizing. You didn’t do anything wrong.” I lowered my lips to hers.
I let her heat and her scent sink into me. I let it calm me for the first time since I had walked in. Her lips were pleading with me to take her. To show her how sorry I was that I let that happen to her again.
I moved between her knees and pulled my shirt over my head before lowering my body back against hers. Her hands traveled my body, pulling me as close as she could get me. Her nails scraped down my back while her knees tightened around my hips. Her breathing was erratic, as was her heart. I felt it pounding against my chest that was pressed to hers.
I kissed down her jaw and neck while I got myself on my knees to pull her shirt off. I softly trailed my rough fingertips down her bare stomach to the top of her jeans. Our eyes locked in the darkness as I unfastened them and slid them down her long legs.
I took her knee in my hand and raised it to my lips before kissing my way up her inner thigh. Her skin broke out in goosebumps before she let a whimper fall from her lips. When I came to the spot that I so badly wanted to taste, I stopped and repeated the process with her other leg. Finally, finding myself back at the junction between her legs, I slid her wet panties to the side before tasting her.
With one swipe of my tongue, I felt her hips lift, wanting to follow the motion. I wrapped my hands around her hips and held her still as I continued with my torture.
I wasn’t really sure who I was torturing. I liked to think it was her, but the hardness in my pants told another story.
When I felt her go limp beneath me and her cries of pleasure quieted, I yanked her panties down her legs before freeing myself.
I slid deep inside of her. We both let out a relieved moan. With her nails digging into my lower back, I pumped in and out of her.
She was hot and tight around me. She felt too good, especially with her hands roaming my body while our heavy breathing filled the room.
She tightened around me and screamed my name just as I filled her with everything I had.
With our hearts pounding and our breathing labored, I pulled her against my chest and wrapped my arms around her.
“Sleep, baby. We will be back home tomorrow,” I whispered into her hair.
I wokewith the sun lighting up the white walls of the room. I turned to see Lennox’s big green eyes watching me. I rolled to my side to face her and pulled her closer to me. “Good morning, beautiful,” I said before leaning in for a kiss.
I ran my thumb across her cheek. “What are you thinking? I can see something brewing behind those green eyes of yours.”
She thought it over for a minute. “Let’s elope.”
“What?” She took me by surprise. I had suggested eloping several times, but she was always against it.
“Let’s elope. Today.” Her eyes were wide with excitement.
“Today?” I propped my head up on my hand but kept my eyes glued to her.
She nodded. “Yeah, let’s fly to Vegas and get married.”
“What about your dad?” I asked. I had a feeling I knew why she had suddenly decided on eloping.
She rolled from her side to her back to stare up at the white ceiling. “Why are you making excuses? I thought you wanted to marry me.”
