Page 97 of My Favorite Sin

My eyes flick up from my phone, landing on his naked body in the doorway. My stomach tightens with a delicious kind of anticipation. I lick my lips, a smile lifting the corners of my mouth. Discarding my phone, I slip out of my pajamas and head through to the neon purple bathroom, brushing my lips against Dan’s as I walk by. He pulls me back and deepens the kiss. Warmth fills me as our bodies press together, skin to skin.

We slide into the hot, bubbly water together, and I lean back against Dan’s chest, trying my best to relax in his arms after all the chaos that’s gone down today. It feels so strange to be in this bathtub with him, in our own cozy little world at last, when all hell is breaking loose with our parents, Forever Families, and the media. Mom and Josh would be fuming right now, knowing I’m here with Dan.

“You’re so tense. Let me help you relax.” Dan rubs my shoulders, massaging me with soap.

His hands feel incredible. I’m trying my hardest to be present, but it’s difficult, considering everything going on outside the sanctuary of this apartment.

“I’m sorry about your job.”

“Sacred Heart is the least of my problems right now. But thank you.” I let out a shaky breath. “I want to believe things will resolve with Mom and Josh but… It got so ugly, Dan. Neither of them would talk with me. Mom forbids me to see you. She said… I looked like a whore.”

His hands pause on my shoulders, and I feel him tense. “I’m sorry. I know how much that must hurt, coming from your mother.” Dan turns me around to face him, wrapping my legs around his waist. He washes the bubbles from his hand and strokes my cheek. “We’ll do as Daxton said—separate ourselves from our parents for a while. It will be best for everyone, at least until all the high emotions have calmed down. We’ll go on living our lives, doing our best not to think about them. I’m not going to let all of this drama stop me from being happy with you.”

I press a soft kiss to his lips, deciding I won’t let it stop me either. “I hate that the truth has caused such a rift. I wish it hadn’t come out this way and caused so many issues. But I’m glad the truth is out there. You’re the one person who makes me feel alive, and now we can be together without any secrets.”

Dan’s dick twitches between my thighs, bringing a smile to my face. I tilt my hips, gliding along his hard length, drawing a groan from low in his chest.

“You said you get all my firsts,” I whisper, moaning as I drag my clit along his dick again. “We’ve never done it in the bath before.”

Without warning, Dan grabs hold of my hips and shoves me down onto his cock, filling every inch of me. I gasp and arch my back at the sudden rush of pleasure that consumes me. The length of him, stretching me. His mouth takes one of my nipples, and I clench around his cock as his tongue brushes over the sensitive flesh.

“You always know what I need.” I grab either side of the bathtub and slowly start to move up and down, massaging Dan’s cock with my pussy.

The water laps around us, even spills over the rim of the tub. Neither of us care about the mess we’ll need to clean up later. Groaning, Dan grips my hips and guides me, helping me ride his dick with slow strokes.

“I thought I was losing you again,” he murmurs. His gaze latches onto mine and I see so much pain within his eyes.

“Never.” I brush a hand over the heart locket, reminding him of the declaration I made when he clasped it around my neck.

Dan’s hot breath against my lips sends a shiver throughout my body, and I start to pick up the pace, bouncing faster on his cock. I can’t help but feel a sense of defiance in this moment, as if we’re sayingfuck youto the world. The defiance only makes everything feel better, having everyone know I belong to Dan.

My body tingles with anticipation as an orgasm grows within me. I can feel it, the tension in my muscles, the rising heat between my thighs. I begin to ride Dan faster, not chasing my own orgasm, but trying to build his, desperate to have Dan’s cum inside me.

His breath quickens. Dan clenches his teeth, hissing through the pleasure. I can see the muscles in his neck and shoulders flexing. And then Dan groans, his body tense. He slams up into me, releasing a loud grunt. The moment I feel his cum spurt into me, I let go of my own control and come hard on his dick. My orgasm bursts through me, the feeling so intense I almost black out.

CHAPTER FORTY-ONE

DAN

Ally

I love the dresses. You’re amazing.

Dan

Which dress have you decided to wear?

That’s a surprise you’ll have to wait for. See you tonight.

I reread our messages from earlier, smiling as I return my phone to my suit jacket, waiting at the street front for Ally’s arrival. The hour is eight p.m., and she should be here at the restaurant any moment. It’s a strange feeling, going on a date with Ally and finally being able to act affectionate with her in public. On top of that newness, I can’t deny feeling nervous, having never asked a girl on a date before. At least, a date that means something.

Ally deserves the world and I want this to be a memorable occasion for her. While she was out today with Jordan at another wedding dress fitting, I purchased two dresses for Ally and wrapped them in a box, leaving them on our bed for her to find when she returned home. I took off toThe Scarlet Mirage for a game of poker, leaving behind a letter for Ally to find with the details of tonight.

Two dresses. Choose the one that makes you feel the most beautiful and wear it tonight because I’m taking you on a date. A car service will pick you up at 7:30.

I straighten my jacket and readjust the bouquet of red roses in my hands. It’s been a week since our relationship became public news. We’ve mostly stayed inside to avoid being hounded by paparazzi. The few times we ventured out, it was chaotic, with photographers following our every move, shouting questions about our relationship and Forever Families. We did our best to ignore them and made no comments.

The third time out of the apartment wasn’t quite so intense. The photographers were still around but lurking at a distance. I have no clue what the tabloids are saying about us, nor do I care. Neither does Ally, which is impressive.
