Page 50 of Cody

There were other places on my body that had felt Cody’s rough passion, and I wondered if he’d left marks. I was so sticky between my thighs that the tops of them were glued together. I laughed at myself. The man was a beast who took what he wanted, and there wasn’t a part of me that minded.

I glanced down at the arm that was flung over my breasts, holding me close to Cody’s warm body. He liked contact. Was he like this with everyone? I didn’t want to think about it, but it was hard not to, especially when I knew Evelyn and I’d seen him with Tina. Both were beautiful women and okay with his dating practices.

I’d thought I was too, but now I wasn’t so sure.

Unsure of how deep in sleep Cody was, I very carefully wiggled out from beneath his arm and away from his body as I rolled to my feet. He didn’t stir at all, and I grinned at the thought that he’d finally been worn out. I stared at him for a minute. His expression was smooth and peaceful, like a sleeping child’s.

I didn’t think Cody would mind if I took a quick shower. I certainly needed one. I searched around for my discarded clothes so I could dress afterwards. The bathroom had been completely remodeled and was modern yet rustic and match the rest of the cabin. I draped my clothes over the vanity, stepped inside the glass enclosure, and turned on the water. A heavy sigh of relief echoed through the small space when I stepped beneath the hot spray.

After a few minutes of just letting the water run through my hair and over my body, I quickly lathered up and rinsed down and then washed my hair. I noticed that Cody had Sauvage bathing products and understood why he always smelled so good. My sister-in-law, Robin, liked their men’s cologne and wore it often.

I kept waiting for the bathroom door to open and was slightly disappointed when it didn’t. I was sore all over, but I still wouldn’t have turned Cody away for shower sex. I guessed that he was either in a deep sleep or finally satiated. I turned off the water, toweled off, and it was while I was dressing that I thought I heard a noise outside the door. A low moan. A rough mumble that I couldn’t make out.

I opened the bathroom door and came to a jerky halt when my gaze landed on the bed. I took in everything at once. Cody’s eyes were closed, his mouth open slightly, his hand beneath the blanket where his dick would be. His hips were thrusting gently. At first I thought he was masturbating, until I realized what it was that I was seeing. It was the outline of someone’s head bobbing up and down beneath the covers.

“Again, baby?” he rasped in a sexy morning voice. “I could wake up every morning with your mouth on my dick.” The growl that followed was long and deep.

A sharp gasp of pain escaped me before I could stop it. My mouth opened in stunned disbelief. It was obvious what was going on, I could see the outline of a head moving up and down his cock. The slurping noises and moaning were loud. “You couldn’t wait until I’d at least left first?”

Cody’s eyes snapped open as he turned his head toward me. Then his expression hardened with a heavy scowl. A look of shock spread across his face when he realized that I was standing next to the bed.

“What the hell?” he snarled as he pulled the covers up to discover who was sucking his dick. “Get off!” He pushed Evelyn away roughly and twisted his hips away from her. “What the fuck, Evelyn?!” He scrambled from the bed with a frightening rage burning in his eyes.

Evelyn’s gaze followed him from where she knelt on the bed. She wiped her wet mouth with the back of her hand. “How was I supposed to know you had company!” she answered, as if that made everything alright. Her eyes darted to me briefly before going back to Cody. I didn’t believe the regret in her eyes. “Her car isn’t in the driveway!”

“What part of ‘you and I are over’ don’t you fucking get?” Cody gritted between his teeth.

“I—I thought you just needed time to calm down!” she stammered, pouting up at Cody. “I didn’t think you were serious!”

She was lying. I knew Evelyn. I had known her since high school. Even back then she’d been a pro at twisting things around to produce a reason for her bad behavior and to get away with it.

Cody ignored her inadequate explanation. “And how the hell did you get in here?”

Evelyn remained quiet and looked everywhere in the room but at him.

“You had a key made,” he guessed with a sneer, twisting his lips.

She didn’t admit or deny it, but the guilt on her face spoke volumes. Cody was so enraged that I worried for Evelyn. His fists were clenched at his sides. The hard-on he’d been sporting when he first jumped from the bed had deflated and now hung between his thighs. The arousal on his face had been replaced with a tight jaw and a tic that looked painful. I was thankful the bed was between them.

I just wanted to get out of there before I burst into tears. I turned and made a mad dash for the front door, snatching up my purse along the way. Thank God I’d already put my shoes on in the bathroom after my shower.

“Alina!” Cody called after me, his tone sharp and demanding.

“I gotta go!”

“Let me drive you.”

“It’s not that far!”

“You can’t walk home in those heels!”

With my hand curled around the doorknob I paused, took a breath, and glanced down at my kitten heels. He was right. I could do it, but it would hurt. I made a decision. I looked back at Cody as I reached down and slipped my shoes off. “I’ll be fine.” My gaze shifted to Evelyn in time to see the smirk on her face before she replaced it with something like remorse.

What do you say to a man who you’d spent the night fucking? A man you were beginning to have feelings for? Goodbye? It was nice? Thanks for all the orgasms?

“Thank you for dinner last night.” It seemed so inadequate after everything that had happened between us. “I’ll see you later.”

“Alina, wait!”
