I reached down, cupped her face in my left hand, and all thoughts of her parents and Reynolds vanished. Besides, her parents’ retaliation wouldn’t matter in the scheme of things because it was now my job to take care of Delaney. And that included paying for college or moving her in if she did get kicked out of her house. Hell, I’ll probably move her in with me any damn way. Roselyn lived with Liam, and Emerson lived with Ramsey, so why wouldn’t Delaney live with me? We were all legal adults, after all. And all those thoughts made me realize I was tired of waiting.
“Are you still scared?” I asked even though it wouldn’t matter. I was taking Delaney tonight, and I didn’t care if she was an emotional wreck. I probably should, but Delaney showing up at Trent’s party showed me just how much I needed to lock her down and put an end to her…indecisiveness.
She didn’t avert her eyes. “I’m not sure,” she admitted. “I think…my problem is with what comes afterwards.”
I ran my thumb across her lower lip, and I could feel my dick rising. I wanted inside her pussy like I wanted to take my next breath, but I wanted her lips wrapped around my cock more. I wanted her to fulfill her fantasy from that night in the trees. And it didn’t matter that she’s never given head before. I knew-I absolutelyknewher lips wrapped around me was going to be the best thing to ever happen to me.
Motherfucker.
I was in love with fucking Delaney Martin.
I knew I wanted her. I knew I was going to have her. I knew I craved her and wouldn’t be without her as long as she called to me. But I knew it was love because I knew she could give me the worst blowjob in history right now, but because it was her…becauseit was her, it’d be the best I ever had.
Delaney would be the besteverythingI would ever have.
“Do you want to know what comes afterwards?” I asked. “Because I’ll be happy to tell you, Lamb.”
Then she did something I hadn’t anticipated.
Delaney opened her lips and took my thumb into her mouth. Her gaze never wavered as she flicked her tongue around the tip of my digit. “Are you sure?” I asked. “I need you to be sure, and I need you to say the words, Delaney. I need the words because I won’t stop once I get started, and you won’t be able to stop me or change your mind.”
She pushed my thumb out of her mouth with her tongue. I watched as she took a deep breath before saying the words that would change both our lives forever. “I’m yours,” she whispered. “I’m yours until you’re done with me, Deke.”
The relief that left my lungs was palpable. “I’ll never be done with you, baby,” I told her honestly. I should have told her I loved her, but I knew she wasn’t ready to hear that. I knew she was already feeling overwhelmed, if I told her I loved her now, she’d freak the fuck out.
She gave me a small nod, but it wasn’t enough. “I need the words, Delaney,” I repeated.
I watched her take a deep breath and then she said, “I want this, Deke. I wantyou.”
“Tell me,” I ordered. “Tell me what you want, Lamb.”
Her chocolate orbs shot towards my groin and then back up again. “You were right that night, you know,” she whispered. “I was watching Melissa, and I had wished it was me on my knees.” My heart felt like it was going to beat clean out of my chest at her confession. “She looked…she looked powerful down on her knees like that. I saw your hands tighten in her hair and I thought it was…thrilling to be able to control a guy from that submissive position.” I wanted to yank her up and kiss the fuck out of her, but I didn’t want to interrupt her struggling confession. “And then…when I looked up and saw you looking at me…” Delaney took another deep breath. “…I wanted to be the one who put that look on your face.”
I huffed and told her a confession of my own. “Youarethe one who put that look on my face,” I admitted. “My hands tightened in her hair because I had been looking atyou, Delaney. Watchingyouis what made me cum, not her.”
Her face looked…eager. She looked like she wished for those words to be the absolute truth; and they were. She’d never know how true every word I’ve spoken to her was. “I…I want to…” Her face turned bright red, and I loved how her party-girl experiment went south.
I decided to help her out a bit. “You wanna suck my dick, baby?”
Delaney’s eyes dilated and her eyes looked like melted chocolate, dreamy and soft. “I…won’t know what I’m doing though.”
I cradled her face again. “Don’t worry about that,” I replied. “I’ll tell you what do you, Lamb.”
“I want you, Deke,” she repeated.
“You have me, Delaney,” I promised.
Chapter 20
Delaney~
I’ve never been so scared in my life.
Even when my parents held me down and sliced my face open, I hadn’t been this scared. Maybe it was because I had no idea what my parents had been about until it was too late. I remember being scared at being held down, but they were my parents. My parents would never hurt me, right?
Wrong.
So, so very wrong.
