“Nope?”

“You know, Doc, I think I understand most things about you. The one thing that has always seemed against the grain is the glee you find in matchmaking. I see the glint in your eyes. Stay out of it.”

Ivy laughed, her shoulders shaking slightly. He wasn’t wrong. She liked a good love story. Real life ones. Despite being unscientific when she noticed people had a spark, she couldn’t help but root for them.

There was something between Leonardo and Jasmine which could not be denied. Now it didn’t mean he wouldn’t have to crawl through broken glass and barbed wire to make up for what he did, but they had a beautiful little boy and all.

“I didn’t say or imply anything,” Ivy explained.

“She could do better than Leonardo.”

“Don’t be like that, Manny.”

“I don’t want to talk about either of them when you are naked in my arms like this.”

“Is that so?” Ivy sassed.

Manny hardened further. She could feel him pressed against her ass and her back. Well. This relaxing bath was about to take a turn. He tweaked one nipple, then the other as his mouth migrated to her neck. He suckled on the spot, which never failed to elicit a reaction from her. Her pulse kicked up. Her core slickened.

“I don’t want to talk about anyone or anything, but how good it will feel when you sink onto my cock and ride me.”

“Your wish is my command.” Ivy lifted her body to do exactly what he instructed.

“No turn around, Doc. Let me see those eyes.”

She stood and positioned herself, so she was in his lap. There was no rush. They had this time to themselves. She slowly sank onto his length. The stretch was perfection. Their moans melded into one. For a moment they sat perfectly still. Well, except for his cock pulsing within her walls. Their eyes locked and their breathing synced.

Manny cupped her neck and pulled her forward. His mouth took her as he poured memories of love and passion they shared into a languid mating of their mouths. It was then she began to move. Riding him, massaging him, stoking her own desire. At first, her rhythm was slow and precise. As she grew closer to her release, all thoughts of precision and driving him crazy were forgotten. He pulled away from the kiss.

“I’ve got you,” he growled.

Good God, His strokes. They were fierce and possessive.

“I’m so close,” Ivy called.

“God, I know. I can feel you, Cock Killer.” With that, he cupped her breast and flicked her nipple before suckling it into his hungry mouth. She wailed out his name. He clamped down on her tender bud. The pleasure mingled with the touch of pain was her undoing. Her walls seized around his cock. Her body shuddered, and he was right there with her, releasing into her core. Coating her coiled muscles with his come. This man.

“I love you,” Manny groaned around her nipple.

“I love you too.”

“Are you going to let go of my nipple?” He shook his head. Okay then. Ivy slumped forward and was content to stay as they were as the water turned tepid.

Larson Scott had accomplished something which Ivy had never seen before. All three of her children sat in stunned silence. Ivy wished she could have spared them from all the ugliness of their grandfather’s deception. However, Manny, Grace and she couldn’t stomach shielding the children from the truth and being accomplices of Larson’s deceit.

Grace had asked to be the one to tell the children, and the couple had agreed. She had been succinct with the information. “I know your parents told you that your grandfather and I adopted your father. That was partially true. I adopted your father. Still hands down the best decision of my life. But your grandfather didn’t adopt your dad. Yesterday, your parents and I learned your grandfather is your dad’s biological father.”

Ivy expected tons of questions. Especially from Sage, but her little girl had looked at her brothers, opened and then promptly shut her mouth.

Surprisingly, it was Benjamin who broke the silence. “Grandma, Grandfather has been lying to you and Dad this whole time?”

“Yes, dear.”

It sparked Sage’s action. As she sat beside her grandma, she wrapped her arms around her. “Are you okay Grandma?”

“I’ve been better, Dear. But I have all of you, so I’ll be fine.” Grace rubbed Sage’s back.

“I’m so sorry Granddad lied to you all this time. To you…” pulling away from her grandmother, Sage ran to her dad and flung herself into his arms “… and you too Daddy. I’m so sorry.”
