The goosebumps rose on her arms as she stared up at me, wanting exactly what I wanted to do to her. “Maverick, remember what I told you.”

“Your heart is safe with me… I pinky quadruple promise.”

Soon as she smiled, giving me the green light, I picked her up while she squealed, begging me to put her down. I tossed her onto my bed, a place that no other woman had laid before. Kim always got fucked in the guest room down on the lower level.

She thought that was my bedroom and I allowed her to think that because she didn’t need to know everything. “I need to go grab my skincare from downstairs.”

“I’m going to shower,” I told her, as she kissed me and then climbed out the bed while I went to take a shower.

By the time I showered, brushed my teeth and did my push-ups, I walked out the bathroom and Wonder was in my bed. She was cuddled in the middle under the blanket fast asleep.

“Spending all that damn money got you tired.”

“Resting my eyes, Mavie,” she replied, never opening her eyes. “You sure take a while in there.”

I went over to the bar and poured myself scotch. Taking it back, I looked around my room to make sure everything was in order before getting in the bed. My blankets were so damn soft and weighted, so it always felt like I was being held whenever I got into the bed.

Right in the middle of the bed, Wonder was laying there with no pants on. “No pants, eh?”

“I can’t sleep with socks and pajama pants… it feels like I’m suffocating.” She yawned, as she got even more comfortable.

Fuck.

I wanted to be close to her, and although the feeling was something I hadn’t experienced in so long, I wasn’t scared of the shit. Wonder didn’t scare me; she made me more drawn to her than anything. There had never been a woman in my bed, and there she was.

Laying in my bed like she owned it.

Shit, if she asked, I probably would have signed the deed over to her. Her skin was so soft as my leg touched hers. “Is this new for you, Mavie?”

“What?”

“Cuddling with someone?”

“Yeah.”

She moved closer to me and got into my arms. “I used to cuddle with my mama… always made me feel so warm and safe. I would give anything to feel like that again, been so long since I’ve felt like that.”

My arms held her as she rested on my chest. “I wanna make you feel that way, Stevie.”

She looked at me. “You already do, Mitchell… just don’t ever tell me to shut the fuck up ever again.”

I laughed. “Never.”

“Good… night.”

“You ever got your pussy ate before, Wonder?”

She slowly pulled her head up and stared into my eyes. “You won’t put sauce on your chicken, but you’ll eat my pussy?”

I licked my lips. “I’m a complex person, Wonder… I’m picky about food and pussy… answer the question.”

She shook her head no. “Never.”

I kissed her lips and flipped her onto her back as she looked at me. “First time for everything, right?”

“Maver—” her words were caught in her throat, as I pulled her panties down, and rubbed my thumb down her crease, feeling the wetness she felt for me.

I looked at her. “You wet for me, Wonder?”
