"That's it, Ness."
Pleasure washed over me in waves, my body still shuddering as I clenched around his cock.I cried out his name again, my voice breaking with the intensity of my orgasm.
Even as I came down from the high, Atticus kept moving beneath me.His hand on my ass was a steady pressure, guiding me through the aftershocks.He thrust up and into me a few more times before grunting loudly against my skin.
The sensations were overwhelming with his release.His cock pulsing inside me, a roar of his own mixing with my whimpers as he pushed deep one last time, releasing his hot seed inside me.His grip on my hip tightened as he rode out his orgasm with me still impaled on him.
Even through the haze of pleasure, I felt each spasm of his orgasm and swallowed his cries with a kiss.
"You're insatiable," he murmured huskily into my hair, kissing the top of my head lightly.
"And you love it," I retorted with a chuckle.
He hummed in agreement, stroking my bare back lazily."Damn right, I do."He kissed me again, this time on the lips.It was slow and tender and filled with worship.
Minutes later, he disengaged and tucked me in the sheets before rolling out of bed and padding into the bathroom.I heard the water running for several minutes before he came back and tugged the sheets off."Come on, Ness.Let's get you in the tub.You're going to be sore."
I was so sleepy."I'm okay."
"I wasn't asking Mrs.Price."He gently scooped me out of bed and carried me into the bathroom.He'd dimmed all the lights and drawn a bath.
"Oh, I see what you're up to."
"Taking care of the woman I'm going to marry?Guilty."
Chapter30
Gwen
Life was movingat warp speed.A few days after the engagement party, I officially moved my team into the Pendragon Tech offices.
And true to his word, Atticus made everything seamless.From the movers, to the IT team, to the servers, and the database guys.Hell, he even had someone bring snacks around.
This is what it's like getting help.
Still, I nervously chewed on my fingernails.
Lance bumped shoulders with me as he mimicked my movements."So, this is it?We are Pendragon now."
"Yeah, I guess so."I said with a smile and shrug.“It’s not so bad so far.They have better tea options.”
His gaze scanned mine."Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm good."And I found it was true.Since the engagement party, I’d felt settled.Solid.And comfortable with Atticus.
"Okay, I trust you.I just worry, you know."
"And I appreciate you worrying.But I'm good, Lance."
He nodded.I could tell he was dying to say something, but he didn't.He held his tongue because he was trusting me.But I was trusting Atticus, and that made Lance uncomfortable.
Atticus and I were making progress.After what he'd said to me on our engagement night, that he would be there for me and that I didn't need to do everything alone, I believed him.And for once, I was just going to let myself fall.It was easier with help.I wish I could say it wasn't, but it was.I had signed on the dotted line, and Atticus had taken care of the money and the interim things that we needed.He'd involved me in every meeting.I trusted him, and the way he made me feel in bed was unparalleled, but there was still a little part of me that was worried, still slightly unsure.But that was just my self-preservation kicking in.And I was allowed that, right?
You can't fall in love with self-preservation.
No, I couldn't.But I wasn't ready for love yet.Right now, just knowing that I had someone watching out for me was enough.And I wasn't really looking for love anyway.Love complicated things.Liking and respecting someone and having really good sex was enough, right?Except we'd both already admitted we’d started to fall for each other.
Christ.I was not unpacking those feelings right now.
