Grant separated her legs, moved between them, and then thrust his aching cock in until he bottomed out. He always had to fight to keep from coming the moment he got in her. He kept his hips still, braced himself on his elbows, and cupped her face.

“I’m so sorry. I know I fucked up.”

Her hands were still trying to push him away at the same time her cunt was gripping him.

“Give me some time, Grant.”

It was getting harder to stay still, but he wasn’t going to mess this up again. “Baby, time is the last thing you need. We need to work this out.”

“We talked about this. We both dislike liars and people who cheat, and you’ve been lying to me all this time.”

“I won’t deny I’ve fucked up…”

“Was it a big joke?” she asked as tears filled her eyes.

His mouth dropped open in shock. “What? Fuck, no.”

He used his thumbs to wipe away the tears that ran down her face.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” she asked.

“Remember me talking about my ex-girlfriends?”

She nodded.

“Every one of them was more interested in my money than me. It was frustrating. So, when you came along, and you didn’t know I was the owner but the manager, it was a chance for me to see if you’d like me for me instead of what I have.”

“But it’s been four months, Grant. When were you going to tell me?”

“I tried so many times, but fear stopped me. The thought of losing you terrified me.”

“I don’t believe that.”

That shocked him. “Why?”

“Because you had to know the longer you kept up the deception, the harder it would be when it eventually came out. If we had been together for a year, it would have been much worse, and the chances of losing me were going up as the days passed.”

She rotated her hips.

He knew even if she didn’t want him to fuck her, her body was crying out for him to push her over.

“I know what I did was wrong, and I knew you wanted me for me within days of being together. It felt good, but I didn’t want it to end. Call me selfish, but this was the only chance I had to know for sure.”

“And do you know now?” she whispered.

“Yes, and it means everything that you care about me, just me.”

A tear slid out of the corner of her eye. “Can you give me a few days?”

His first inclination was to say no, but he’d alreadypushed her enough. “Yes, Sweetheart, but I want you to know I’m so sorry about not making it clear to you at the beginning, and I can’t see my life without you.”

She sniffed and nodded.

He bent and pressed a sweet kiss to her lips before he pulled his cock out of her body and dressed. When he was finished, he leaned over the bed and kissed her again. “I want to hear from you soon.”

She nodded.

He turned to leave, and it felt like his heart was getting yanked out of his chest. When he drove back to his place, it seemed the farther he got from her, the worse the pain was.
