Page 80 of My Favorite Sin

I barely get the words out before Dan groans, the sound filled with possession and urgency. He grips my hips tighter and pulls me onto his dick with each slow but harsh thrust. “Hearing those words… I can’t hold off, Ally.”

“I don’t want you to.” The act of reuniting with Dan and finally giving myself completely to him already has me close to an orgasm. “We don’t have much time before everyone wonders where we are.”

He growls through clenched teeth, pumping fast until losing control and spilling into me, repeating the wordmineover and over in a deep and breathless groan. My orgasm hits, spasming around Dan’s cock, drawing his cum deep within me where I need it. I pant his name, trying my hardest to be quiet, but it’s a difficult task when he makes me feel this complete.

“Ally?” my mother calls. Her footsteps approach from the far end of the corridor outside the bathroom.

Panic flashes through me. Dan and I quickly pull apart from each other and straighten our clothes. He sits on the rim of the bathtub, pretending like we’re in the middle of a conversation. I fix my hair in the mirror, lightheaded and still tingling from my orgasm.

Mom enters the bathroom. “There you are, honey. Iwanted to check up on you.” She joins me at the mirror and kisses my forehead, her attention catching on my new necklace. “Oh, Dan, you really are so incredible for finding this photo. Ally, how are you feeling? You look flushed.”

“I… was crying over the photo of my dad. Happy tears,” I say, feeling Dan’s cum seeping out of me.

She smiles, convinced by the lie. “All right, you two. Come downstairs so we can cut the cake.”

Dan follows her out of the bathroom first. I catch up, hooking my pinkie finger with his. He side-eyes me, glancing down at the necklace then back at me, the two of us sharing a secret smile.

I press up on my toes and whisper in his ear, “I can think of a whole list of things you still have to teach me.”

As soon as Mom, Dan, and I return to the party, Liam stands from his seat and slips an arm around my waist. “Hey, beautiful. I wish I could stay for the cake, but I need to get on the road to make it to my gig in time.”

“Of course. I’ll walk you out to your car.”

Liam says a quick goodbye to everyone, we exit the dining room together, and I walk with him out to the side of the house where his truck and all the other cars are hidden for my surprise party. Each step of the way is awkward, knowing the conversation we’re about to have.

“Your family is really nice,” Liam says as we arrive at his truck. There’s a chill to the night air, but I barely feel it, prepping myself for the bad news I’m about to deliver. “I had a great time tonight. I hope you enjoyed your party.” He strokes my cheek. A look enters his eyes like he’s thinking about kissing me.

I duck my head, leaning away from his palm. “Liam, I need to say something.”

“Okay.” There’s a brightness to his voice which makes my stomach clench, knowing what I’m about to say will be harsh.

“I said I would give us a chance. I meant it at the time, but… I can’t be your girlfriend. I’m sorry. My heart isn’t in this.”

His brow creases. He’s utterly shocked. “I thought that was the whole point of giving us a chance. Not rushing into anything and giving us time to form a bond. We only just started?—”

“I know. I’m sorry.”

“I thought things were going well.” Liam rubs both hands over his face, groaning into his palms. “I stopped seeing other girls because I like you so much. I don’t do shit like that for just anyone, Ally.”

“I know. Again, I’m sorry. My mind has been a mess recently. I wanted this to work between us.”

He lowers his hands, the look in his eyes both hurt and anger. “What did I do wrong?”

“You didn’t do anything. You’re amazing. It’s… there’s…” My hands clasp behind my back and I bite my cheek, nervous and unable to speak a proper sentence.

“Stop dancing around the truth and be honest. I can handle it.”

“Really, Liam, it’s not you.”

“I don’t see what you could possibly have to hide unless there’s some other guy you’re seeing and are trying to protect my feelings.”

My shoulders tighten at his sharp tone and how perceptive he is. Liam has been nothing but genuine and honest with me throughout our entire time knowing each other,and I feel terrible that I can’t do the same in return. I want to offer him somewhat of the truth, but then he could piece everything together, and I can’t have anyone find out about me and Dan.

“There’s no explanation other than it doesn’t feel right. I’m sorry.”

“This is bullshit.” Liam enters his truck, slamming the door shut behind himself. The ignition roars to life, he reverses down the driveway, and I watch as he speeds off into the night.

Well, that went pretty bad.
