“Shh, baby, let go. I’ve got you,” I tell him as I feel his cock swelling and jerking in my hand. “Let go, baby. I’m right here. I’ll always catch you.”
It seems to be what he needs to hear because his eyes shut, and he jerks in my grip. I feel his cum spray across us as our bodies move together. His cry of pleasure is muffled as he bites his lip, and I tilt him to hit that spot that drags out his release and makes his cry louder.
I can’t take it anymore.
My release erupts from me, filling his perfect ass as I bury my head in his throat. I jerk and force my cock deeper, until I know he’ll never get me out of him.
His fingers stroke my back as he shudders in my arms, kissing every inch of skin he can. Lifting my head, I press my lips to his. “You did so well, baby.”
He seems to brighten, smiling so vividly it steals what is left of my heart and soul.
My legs want to buckle, so I sit my ass on the counter before I fall and drop both of us. “Are you okay?” I ask worriedly. I was hard and unrelenting, and it’s his first time with me.
“Better than okay,” he assures me as he lifts his head, showing me his smile. “Thank you.”
“For what?” I ask.
“For not touching me like I’m broken or holding back just because of my past . . . . For still wanting me,” he whispers.
“Always,” I vow. “Your past changes nothing. I’ve wanted you for years, and I just want to make you happy. I want to give you everything you need and desire.”
His smile is so bright it must hurt, and he buries his face in my neck.
“Hiding?” I tease.
“I’m shy,” he murmurs, and my grin widens.
“After what we just did? Babe, how are you shy?” I tease, and he smacks me. “Okay, okay, come on, let’s clean up and then get some sleep.”
Turning the shower on, I wait for the water to warm up, and then I carry him in, making sure he’s steady on his feet before I start washing his body. He’s blushing hard and tries to protest, but I clean every inch of him, including his beautiful ass, and when we’re done, I dry him off and help him dress again. We sneak back into the room hand in hand, only this time, he pulls me down onto the sofa with him and sprawls across my chest. Wrapping my arms around him, I kiss his head and sigh.
“I love you, Way,” he whispers in the dark. “I never meant to fall in love with you, but I did. Every time you held my hand through a nightmare, every time you woke me, protected me, and treated me like a normal human being . . . You stole a pieceof me, and I don’t want it back.” I meet his gaze. “But I want that piece of you too. Even if I share it with Maeve, I want it.”
“It’s yours,” I tell him. “It has been for years. Nothing will change that. I love you, Aiyaret. I’m sorry it took me so long to realize it.”
Kissing me softly, he leans down with a happy hum. “It’s okay, just don’t waste any more time.”
Smiling, I close my eyes. “I won’t. That’s a promise.”
FORTY-NINE
RICK
Time in the hospital is moving weirdly. I know Ajax and our company are protecting us, giving us time to rest before we return. I also know we’ll have to move eventually, but for now, this is our own little paradise. It can be stifling, however, and my wanderer’s soul yearns for fresh air and the outdoors, so the next night, when everyone is doing their own thing, I head out in search of the quietness of nature.
I sneak up to the roof, not wanting to go too far in case something happens. The door doesn’t alarm, which is lucky. A few nights ago, I heard the nurses admitting that the doctors sneak up here for a break and a smoke since there are no cameras, which is why I hoped I could too.
There’s no staff up here at the moment, and I’m grateful as I walk to the ledge and lie down, dangling a leg off the rooftop. One of my arms hangs, my fingers playing with the air as I stare up at the night sky. My lungs slowly expand with fresh, warm air.
I lie like this for a while, letting it heal me. I’m comfortable in cities and around people, but my heart always belongs to the wilderness.
“Rick?” Turning my head, I lock eyes with the person my heart also belongs to, someone equally as wild as the world I love—Maeve Carter.
“Are you stalking me, pretty girl?” I tease.
“I heard the nurses talking about the cutie sneaking up here.” She smiles as she heads over, and I sit up, crossing my legs as she sits beside me. She winces when her bad leg causes her pain, so I grab it and lay it over my lap. “What are you doing here?”
“I just needed some fresh air,” I reply. “Too long inside and I start to go a little crazy.”
