She shakes her head.

“Because I saw you when you were eighteen, and I knew I didn’t want any woman but you. Do you understand? I love you. I’ve loved you since before it was okay to love you.” I slide my cock through her wet folds.

Her neck arches, and she moans. “I’ve loved you my whole life, Crue. It’s only ever been you. I never dated or even thoughtof other men because it was always you. I cared for you as a young girl, but now as a woman, I love you. I want all that too.”

I slowly push inside her body, making her mine. She tightens around me, but I continue to push as I circle my finger around her clit, keeping her mind off the pain and the stretch from taking me. Finally, I’m all the way in, and I swear I can feel her cervix at the tip of my cock. She’s so hot, wet. I feel everything. That’s when I realize what I’ve done.

I took her without a condom.

The thought repeats in my head, and I look down at her body. She’s mine. Told me she loved me. I confessed my love. She’ll have my name soon enough.

I pull out and slide back in. After a couple more long, slow slides of my cock, I need her harder and faster.

“More,” Harlowe begs. “Give me more, Crue. Give me all of you.”

“Fuck,” I roar as I pull out and take her hard.

I slam back into her body. She screams, and I do it again, over and over. I pull out and flip her over, position her on her knees, and press her chest into the mattress. When I slide in this time, it’s smooth and deep. She rears up, and I grab her braids, holding her neck in an arch, as I slam in and out of her, taking her hard. She’s going to feel me later, maybe even tomorrow. I don’t care. The caveman inside me wants every man to know she’s mine.

I take her again and again, and she screams as she comes hard, coating my cock in her essence. I look down to where we are joined, and it’s almost too much. I pull out again and flip her to her back. I’m on her before she can protest, sliding back into her heat, deep and hard. Pulling her leg up over my arm, I open her up and take her even deeper.

“Yes, Crue. Yes. There.” She’s climbing up again, and I feel her throbbing around my cock.

I don’t stop. I drop over her body so that I’m all over her. Her breasts press into my chest, and I’m getting close. I need her to go over again before I do. I release her leg and drop onto my elbows. Holding her head, I lean down to her lips.

“I love you, Starlight,” I tell her before taking her lips deep and hard, just like my cock is taking her pussy.

We kiss for a few moments before she pulls back and moans long and loud, coming hard. Her body is pulling my cum from my cock. I slam into her, going deep and come hard.

“I’ll always take care of you,” I tell her before I press my forehead to hers and try to come back to myself.

I roll us so that she flops onto my chest and my arms lock around her, holding her tight against my body.

CHAPTER

HARLOWE

We make love again in the shower before he gets dressed and goes out to my truck to get my bag. I have a change of clothes in there. I slip on my thong and look at my body. My skin is marked up from where Crue nipped and bit me in the shower. I left a hickey on his thigh and told him if another woman saw it, I’d use his knife on her before I took his cock as my trophy. He laughed and told me no other woman would ever get that close to him again.

I feel happy and blessed in this moment. Life has been so good, and I know there is still the threat on my life hanging over our heads. I can’t not think about it, but I also can’t focus everything on that.

We drive over to Rylan’s house, where the barbecue has already started. My brother is sticking close to Marnie, who looks frustrated with him and something else I can’t identify.

When I walk into the kitchen to grab a beer for Crue, Marnie follows me in. “Would you mind driving Oly and me home? I’m getting a headache and not feeling the best. Oly’s also getting tired.”

“Okay. Give me a second.” I walk out to give Crue his beer.

“I’ll be back soon. I have to run Marnie home,” I tell Crue as I give him a kiss. “Love you.” I smile at him.

It’s already been determined that I’m staying with him. He watched me pack a bag as soon as we got here.

“What?” Rylan jumps up and storms into the house. He cages Marnie against the counter and whispers in her ear. She shakes her head and finally gives in.

“Just tonight, Ry,” she says.

“Not until I’m done with you. Which will be never, sugar,” he says before kissing her deep.
