Page 46 of My Heart To Heal

‘Get up here,’ he growls, then grabs me and pulls me up onto the sofa so I’m straddling his waist. ‘Boxers off, honey.’ He pushes me to the side, so I fall to the sofa, laughing until he pulls off his shirt and pulls up his sweatpants.

‘My god, you look good,’ I say without meaning to, and he smiles.

‘And you look like myfavorite meal.’ He reaches up and yanks down my underwear, clearly frustrated that I’m taking too long.

‘Nick, your dick is in no way ready to fuck me.’ I laugh as he kneels between my legs.

‘Missy, I could smell your fuckin’ arousal while my dick was in your mouth. If you think I’m not going to eat you like a midnight snack, you’re very much mistaken.’

I swallow at the intensity of his gaze as he pushes his hands up my thighs and spreads them wide.

‘You’re so fuckin’ beautiful like this.’

He’s staring at my kitty when he talks, so I think he’s talking to her, but as he lowers his head and the mouth I know can work wonders, I don’t give a fuck.

Casual. We’rejustcasual.

Come Sit Your Butt Down, Handsome

Missy

‘Youwere fourteen?’ Igasp, wide-eyed, as he answers my question, and he nods.

‘Yeah, but in my defense, I was tall, and I looked older and…’

‘Wait, how old was she?’

‘Oh, um, she was sixteen.’

‘Jesus.’ I shake my head, and he shrugs.

‘Why, how old were you?’

‘Oh no, Mister, we’re not done with your story.’

‘It’s not much of a story. We were down at the lake. Doug managed to snag us some beers from the bar, something his dad grounded him for two weeks for when he found out.’ He laughs, and I can’t help but smile as I see the wistful expression on his face. ‘We all had a little to drink, and Luke and Zoe were off enjoying each other’s company.’ He waggles his eyebrows, and I cackle. ‘Doug was with Jessie, and Bree was hanging out with my brother so that left Leo, me,and some of Zoe and Bree’s classmates. They didn’t really hang out with girls all that often, so I guessed they’d invited them for us. I thought we’d just make out a little, then she put her hands down my pants and asked if I wanted to go all the way.’

‘Oh my god.’

‘I was a teenage boy. Of course, I said yes.’

‘Fourteen? Nick. That’s only eight and a half years older than Jonah is now. I don’t want my baby having sex in eight and a half years.’

He smiles. ‘He probably won’t, Miss. I didn’t have a whole lot else to do with my time.’

This was nice. Nick came over once Jonah was in bed, and we’ve just been hanging out, talking, and drinking wine.

My eyes hold his for a moment. I thought they were just dark brown when I first met him, now, I know better. Now, I’ve gazed into them in the throes of passion and seen the hazel flecks mixed in with the molten chocolate. I’ve run my fingertips along the arch of his dark eyebrows and down over the bump in his nose. I’ve studied his sharp jawline as he slept and scratched my nails through the stubble he lets grow because he knows I like it. He hasn’t said as much, but he was always clean-shaven until I commented on him looking extra sexy with alittle scruff, then proceeded to ride said scruff like a rodeo cowgirl.

‘You need to stop looking at me that way, sweetheart,’ he says, smiling at me from the opposite end of my sofa, and I inhale deeply through my nose, then take a sip of wine just as he picks up my foot, pulling it into his lap and starting to massage. The sound that leaves my mouth is indecent.

‘Oh my god.’ I lean my head back, and he chuckles.

‘I’ve been putting in all this effort, and all I needed to do was rub your feet.’

‘Uh uh,’ I shake my head. ‘The effort has been very much appreciated.’ And it has. My array of toys has become redundant since I’ve been getting an abundance of orgasms from a real-life, warm-bodied human man. ‘Why did you become a vet?’ I ask, changing the subject as he refills my glass from the bottle on the table.

‘I love animals, always have.’
