She opens her mouth to say something, but just then her phone rings. Her eyes widen in surprise, and she quickly stands up, heading downstairs naked to grab it. I get up, following her, watching her as she reads the screen. Unable to hold back, I ask, “Who is it?" My frown deepens when I notice her expression shift, turning cool and distant.

"Butch’s parents."

"What do they want?"

She lifts her gaze from her phone to me. Her eyes are wide and scattered.

She paces the room. "I don't know. I'll have to call them back to find out, but if I had a guess, they want to see Chad."

"Do they know their son did drugs?"

"They found out the same day I did."

Why am I acting like he’s my kid? I need to sit back and let her handle this. Although I know next to nothing about him, I can’t stop the hatred I feel when he’s mentioned. And I know enough to make me want to protect Jemima and Chad from anything associated with him… including his parents.

Chapter 29

Jemima

We head back upstairs,where his fingers brush my cheek in a sweet, unexpected touch, making my chest ache for more. I wish I could just be a young woman who grabs one of his shirts, watches a TV show or movie, and then falls asleep in his arms. But instead, I have to deal with real-life problems, so I call them back.

The conversation is short, and I agree to organize a meetup.

I pick my clothes off the floor, lost in thought when Harvey’s arms pull me up to stand. He hugs me close, and I wrap my arms around his middle, savoring the beat of his heart and the warmth of his skin against my cheek.

How did he know I needed comfort?

We stand in the middle of his bedroom, and my eyes shift to take in the view. This is the push I need to keep going in the direction I’ve found for myself. While my ex tries to remind me of my past, Harvey shows me a different path.

“You ready to get back to work now?” I ask.

“No. I’ve been trying to figure out a way I can convince you to stay locked up in here with me so we can stay in this bubble longer.”

I pull my head away from his body to gaze up at him. His face is contorted tightly.

“As much as I’d love that, we can’t. We could do this again if you’re interested?”

His expression softens, as a small chuckle escapes him. He kisses the top of my head. “Of course I’m interested.”

“I’m not sure how to do this…”

“You mean date?” he asks, raising an eyebrow.

That seems serious, and before we label this, I need to test the waters with Chad. “Yeah. Could we hang out with Chad and see how it feels?”

“We could go to a basketball game?” he says, searching my eyes.

Inside it kills me to swallow my pride and let him do something extravagant because I know Harvey will get the best seats. “Sounds great,” I say with a smile. The way his eyes light up makes me regret not giving in sooner. He genuinely wants to hang out with us.

“Now, are you sure we don’t have time for another round?” He kisses my jaw and down my neck, sucking and biting, and my knees go weak. His erection has been pressed against me, and I’m amazed at how quickly he’s ready again.

Have some fun… I hear Molly’s voice say in my head.You won’t get another opportunity for a while.

“Unless you don’t think you can make me come in the next five minutes?” I challenge.

He picks me up, throws me on the bed, grabs another condom, and crawls over me, positioning his thighs between mine. Lifting one of my legs onto his shoulder, he presses a kiss on my inner ankle, making my body tremble. He repeats the action with myother. With both of my legs on his shoulders, he leans over. I watch his face… his heavy, hooded eyes focused on my pussy. His hand rests on my left hip, and with his right, he guides his cock inside me. This time, he slides in without waiting for me to adjust.

The fullness feels incredible, and my body softens with the memory of him. He begins to thrust into me, and this angle lets him go so deep, his pelvis pressing against my swollen, achy clit. It doesn't take long before my limbs start quivering, my lower back heating up.
