“I love you,” I cry, swallowing the lump inside my throat. “It hurts, but I love you.”
Raising his hands, he cups my cheeks, forcing our gaze to meet, and almost like a chameleon, I swear, even in the darkest of times, his eyes morph into emerald green.
Just like always, they blanket me with love and warmth, but still, there’s a part of me that’s scared to allow him access to all of my heart if the only purpose is to break me until there’s nothing left.
You have to learn to trust him, Charlie.
Love will never survive without it.
“If I have to spend my entire life earning your forgiveness, I will do just that. I can’t… we can’t be apart. I cannot let you go.”
“I don’t want you to let me go. We promised it was ride or die. I’m standing here, breathing, alive, and want to give our family a second chance to become one again.”
Lex closes his eyes, almost as if a weight has been lifted off his shoulders, only to open them again moments later. “Charlotte Edwards, I love you.”
He places his mouth on mine, teasing me with a slow and soft kiss, igniting the fire within my belly and comforting me in the way words never can. I refuse to regret my actions or wish the past away, understanding the purpose of the journey is to strengthen our bond.
And in this one kiss, I now know I’m on the right path.
“How long until you’re off duty?” I whisper, pushing my hand through his hair and relishing in the soft strands falling between my fingers.
Lex grins, running his nose against mine before letting me go. “Give me fifteen minutes, and I’m all yours.”
“You’re all mine or… I’m all yours?” I tease.
Pausing at the door, he lifts his gaze to meet mine. With a cocky grin, Lex tilts his head slightly then bites his bottom lip. “As long as I’m inside you, take it any which way you please.”
And that’s what we do, all night until the sun rises, my husband makes love to me. Devouring every inch of me, in our bed, in our home.
Thankfully, Adriana offered to take Amelia, which came as a surprise as well as convenient for us. Of course, I couldn’t refuse. We needed some bonding time without the biggest cockblocker crying in her crib in the room beside us.
In the morning, I awake with his body curled into me. My phone beeps. I reach over, but Lex grabs my hand and places it on his cock. It’s throbbing, and it only means one thing.
I don’t have time to even finish that thought. He slides inside me, and I moan, my body sore and tender from being ravaged on the car and the all-night sweet loving.
“I can’t get enough of this, Charlotte. Being inside of you… my beautiful wife.”
We come in sync, out of breath. I lean back, unable to move my muscles.
“Go ahead, you can check your phone now.” He chuckles.
“I forgot… whoever it is can wait.”
“I bet he can’t.”
“Lex…”
“If that phone beeps in the next minute, I get to fuck this pretty little ass of yours right now.”
“And if you’re wrong?” Please don’t be wrong!
The phone beeps.
“Show me the text,” he demands.
I grab my phone and slide the screen, two texts in a row, and they’re from Eric.
Eric: OMG Charlie, Matthew McConaughey is working out at Venice Beach! Meet me there in ten minutes.
