Page 80 of Lightness In My Dark

Finn murmured a few colorful words, avoiding eye contact. “I’m fine, Wren.”

“You know what, if you won’t be honest with me, I’ll cancel the weekend with my friends and take you to the doctor myself.”

That got his attention. “You’re not canceling. I’m fine. Everything is set, and it will be a great time.”

I attempted to scoot off the bed, but he caught my arm and dragged me to his side, locking me in place with his arm circling my shoulders.

“It’s not a big deal. I must have eaten something bad yester—”

“Don’t lie to me, Finn. For the past week, you’ve looked pale, sweating, this wasn’t the first time you got sick, and you’re not acting yourself. We promised to be truthful with each other.”

His head fell backwards. “I cut back on the oxycodone, and these are some of the withdrawal symptoms.” I was about to say something, but he cut me off. “It’s not a big deal. I’ll go back to the normal dosage and amount, so I won’t—”

My shoulders wiggled to break free. Finn was stronger. “It’s not a solution, Finn. We have—”

“We will, Wren. When things settle, and after the wedding—”

“No! Before the wedding.”

“Not happening. I’m working on important accounts to get out of the way so I can take the time off before our honeymoon.”

I struggled in his grip. He rolled me onto my back, balancing his forearms on each side of my head, kissing me as I spoke.

“Kiss me all you want.” A kiss on the corner of my lip. “But I’m not budging on this.” A warm, intimate kiss to my neck, inciting a moan. “You need to start detox before you get sicker.” The front of his hair brushed my jaw, his mouth caressing the length of my collarbone. “I’m ser—serious, Finn.”

One hand disappeared between us, thumb massaging my clit outside my underwear. I gasped and fought him. I didn’t want to drop or disregard the conversation. My hand snatched his wrist to stop him, and he did. He laid his body weight on me.

“This isn’t something I’m going to ignore. It’s too important. I’m asking you to clear your schedule over the next few weeks, so you can take off all of May.”

He rolled onto his back, his arm slung over his eyes. “Wren, you’re making this bigger than it is. These are normal withdrawal symptoms.”

“Yes, I know. I’ve read up on detoxing. And since you started to cutback, now is the time.”

Finn’s voice became sterner. “I said no. There’s too much work—”

I squashed into his side, my hand drawing circles on his chest. “For my birthday. Do it as a birthday gift to me?”

He let out a laugh. “Yeah, like I’m that much of a dick to kick my addiction as a birthday gift to you.”

I straddled him, lying chest to chest, kissing his chin. “It would mean more to me than anything you could buy.” He was about to protest. “I love you, Finn. I want you better and fresh for our wedding.”

He hugged me closer, and with a teasing smile, said, “You know how to make me better.”

Finn grabbed my ass with one hand, stroking a finger along my butt crack with the lightest of touches. This drove me wild. I smacked his hand away and gave him a hurt look.

His arms thumped to the sides. “Fine. I’ll see what I can do with my work schedule.”

“Promise.”

“I’m not promising anything, but I’ll try.”

Crawling downward, I said, “That’s all I ask.”

My mouth covered the head of his cock. Hand massaging his balls. He’d appreciated the distraction. His muscles coiled when I gripped him. Sliding up and down, saliva dripping from my mouth. My hand and mouth worked him into a mess of groans. His hands went to the back of my head, pelvis poking upwards, while his cock sunk into my throat. I gagged, leaking tears, but I came up for air, only to take more of him.Fuck Wren!Dirty words rained from his lips. My tongue swept along his dick, hand twisting the head, and then I sucked his balls into my mouth.

“Fuck! Oh my God... Anything you want… Fuck! I’ll do it.”

My tongue trailed back up to take him deep. A firm hand stroked, and the other fingers massaged hisperineum. Finn’s pelvis flinched, strained upwards, and then he called out he was coming. Instead of pulling away, I let him come in my mouth for the first time. He spasmed for a while and then yanked me to his chest, kissing me all over, fingers knotting in my hair.
