Page 30 of Tell Me You Need Me

“It was.” I rest my hands on her hips, needing to touch her. “Now you couldn't make me leave.”

“That’s sweet, but you know maybe one day we could leave if that’s what you needed.” Fuck, is she so damn sweet.

“All I need is you, Teddy,” I tell her truthfully. These past few days I haven't thought about my brother or father at all. Letting Teddy in has been washing away that anger I’ve held for so long.

“I just want you to know it’s an option.”

“Because it’s going to be me and you?”

“I was kind of hoping.” She gives me one of her smiles that always warms the center of my chest.

“You don’t have to hope, Teddy. I’m yours.” I sit up to kiss her. I’ve never been more certain of anything in my life.

I know the road may not be easy for us in the beginning, but I will do whatever it takes to have a life with her. Those three little words are on the tip of my tongue, but I hold back for now.

Even if I want to give voice to them, I’m not sure where we stand, and I don’t want to push her too soon. She is still so damn young even if her soul feels older.

“West.” Teddy moans against my mouth, grinding her pussy down on my cock. “I’m yours too.” She nips my bottom lip. Her hand comes up to cup my cheek, her thumb brushing my scar. “Make love to me.”

I swallow, searching her eyes. “Be sure, Teddy.”

“West, I’ve been sure about you from day one. I couldn't stay away.” I turn, taking her down onto the bed beneath me. “I love when you move me all around however you want me.”

“Teddy,” I growl. This is what I mean about that damn mouth of hers. I’m always trying to keep myself in check, and she’s always trying to get me to crack. Does she know that I’m always holding myself back with her?

“You should know.” Her hand slips down between us, wrapping around my cock. “This is my first time.” I close my eyes, sucking in a deep breath. “But I don’t want you to hold back. I can handle you, West.”

“I’m not sure I can handle you, babe.” I drop my forehead to hers, my breathing heavy. I let her guide my cock to her opening. The head easily slips in. She’s still soaked from last night. “But know—” I open my eyes to meet hers. Fuck, I don’t want to hurt her, and I know this will. “You’re my first too.”

A smile breaks across her face, and I give in to the need thumping through me and thrust my throbbing cock into her sweetness.

Teddy gasps, her hands going to my shoulders, her nails digging in. “I’m sorry,” I say, kissing her cheeks and lips. Anywhere that I can get my mouth on her. “I’m sorry, Teddy Bear.”

“Don’t be sorry for giving me what I ask for, honey.” I love it when she calls me that. “And I want more.” She attempts to lift her hips, her pussy clenching around my cock. I’m already about to come.

“Then I’m going to give it to you.” I pull out, thrusting back in. Teddy lets out a small moan.

“More.” She licks her lips.

“You’re mine, Teddy.” I seat myself deep inside of her. “I’ll be the only one to ever have you this way.” A moan leaves her. She likes when I talk about claiming her. Now that she’s given herself to me completely, she’s sealed her fate. She’s mine forever.

“Less talking and more doing.” She wraps her legs around me, encouraging me to give her what she needs. I do exactly that, bringing my thumb to rub her clit as I thrust in and out of her until her legs are shaking and she goes over the edge.

“W…West.” My name comes out like a cute as hell mewl. I watch as she closes her eyes tight and her body tenses, throwing her head back, enjoying every second of it.

Her pussy locks down around my cock, making her almost painfully tight. It sucks my orgasm from me. I groan her name as I flood my release deep inside of her. Teddy’s eyes flutter open, and she lets out a small gasp, feeling my release spill into her.

Neither of us say anything about what it could mean, but I can see it in her eyes, and it’s not fear. I lean down and take possession of her mouth. Teddy has already taken possession of all of me.

Chapter Twenty

TEDDY

“We get total control of the jukebox tonight,” I joke when we enter the diner.

“This place is dead.” Willa glances around before picking a table in the corner for us.

“We getting our usuals?” I ask Willa, picking up the menu anyway to glance at it. Even though I basically have it memorized.
