“Sometimes.” Her nonchalance is followed by a shrug. “My baby sister is really special, you know that, right?”
“I do.” Fuck yeah, I really do. Not only is she unique and special. She’smine.
“And she’s been hurt a lot.”
“I know.” Twyler’s past is a part of her that I’ve come to understand, a history that makes me all the more determined to shield her from harm. “My intentions are solid.”
“If I find out that you do anything to cause her pain,” she steps closer. “I will hunt you down and destroy you.” Ruby’s warning hits like a punch. Her intensity is both intimidating and strangely comforting, a fierce protector of her sister.
“I don’t want to hurt her.” I say it clearly, wanting her to hear the conviction in my voice. “I love her.”
She smiles. “Good. She deserves love. So much of it.”
“I agree.” My eyes shift back to the room I came out of, a silent indication that I plan on returning. “I’ll just head back to bed.”
“Eh, go,” she says, body shifting from obstacle to understanding. “I may be a hard ass, but I’m not a cockblocker.”
I laugh nervously. “You Perkins girls are crazy, you know that?”
“It’s the only way we know how to survive.” She squeezes my bicep and shakes her head. “Damn, your body is ridiculous. You hiding an older brother somewhere? A cousin?”
I shake my head and with a muttered curse, she enters her room and closes the door behind her. Feeling awkward about getting caught out here, I consider going back to bed, but then say fuck it. It’s been too long since I’ve been in a bed with my girl.
Quietly, I turn the knob to Twyler’s room, and step inside. She’s curled on her side, her cat curled up next to her.
“Is that cat going to attack me?” I ask, placing my phone on the bedside table.
“With purrs and love,” she says, nudging Bertha away. I crawl in next to her and wrap my body around hers.
She sighs, wiggling her ass into my crotch. “That took you longer to get in here than I expected.”
“I got ambushed in the hallway.” I Iift her hair and kiss the back of her neck.
She turns, eyes wide. “My mom?”
“Your sister.” I take advantage of her facing me and lick her lips, pushing my tongue into her mouth. My dick tightens, pushing at the cotton of my shorts. I grind it against her thigh. “She’s fucking terrifying.”
“She’s definitely protective.” She kisses me back, hips turning to meet mine. The movement makes me harder, and damn, I’m so fucking gone for this girl. “Did you have to sweet talk your way in here?”
“I just agreed to her terms.” Pushing my hands under her shirt, I squeeze her tits. “God, I missed you so fucking much.” Her nipples tighten into sharp points. “I think your tits missed me as much as I missed them.” Impatiently, I yank the shirt over her head and suck a nipple into my mouth. Twyler moans, back arching, and I flatten a palm over her inner thigh, spreading her wide. I rub circles into her flesh, moving higher with each pass, until I brush across her clit.
“Wet for me already, Sunshine?” Tugging her panties aside, I feel the slick, wet heat of her pussy. “Fuck yes, you are.”
I push a finger inside.
“I want you in me,” she says, hips rising and falling. “Please, Reese.”
Her hands grapple with my shorts, and I grab the neck of my hoodie, pulling it over my head and tossing it on the floor. My cock springs between us, already leaking. I want in her so bad that I’m afraid I may come the second I’m in her—but who cares? I’ve got a lifetime to make love to this woman.
“Condom?” I ask between kisses. “Because I don’t have one.”
Her hands still on my chest and her nose wrinkles. “Sorry.”
“That’s okay.” I start to kiss down her belly. “More time for me to lick your pussy.”
She laughs when I nip her side, squirming from being ticklish. She grabs my face and forces me to look at her. “I’m on the pill.”
I raise an eyebrow. “Yeah?” Her hand drops and circles around my cock, giving it a long stroke. My jaw tenses, trying not to rock into her grip. “You’re sure?”
