“Only if I get my own treat.”

Christian’s eyes closed in what looked like torment.

“You know I won’t last if I have your mouth wrapped around my dick.”

“Maybe just a quick taste,” she promised as she shimmied out of her jeans and panties.

He gritted his teeth. He loved how sexually sensual she was, but he knew he would have to muster all his strength not to come as soon as her mouth was on him. Maybe he could distract her enough to make her forget. With that plan in mind, he dropped down on the bed beside her and started to drive her out of her mind.

Since she was already begging, he didn’t think it would take too long to make her come a few times before he tucked her under him.

He smiled as the first orgasm ripped through her. When she laid quiet and tried to slow her breathing, he moved down her body. First with his fingers and now with his mouth.

Harmony’s breath snagged in her lungs at the first touch of his tongue as it delved in between her sensitive lips. She tried pulling him up, but it was like moving a boulder.

“Christian … Daddy…” she begged.

He lifted his head. “Just one more time.”

Harmony’s eyes pinched closed as he pushed her rapidly toward another orgasm.

She wondered if there was going to be a night that no matter how many times they made love, their desire for each other couldn’t be quenched, and then every thought splintered.

Later that night, Harmony lay wrapped in Christian’s arms and listened to his deep breathing.

Their lives together couldn’t have been more perfect. Harmony felt incredibly blessed to have Christian in her life. But small things were starting to get to her. The fact she was never left alone for any period of time. She also felt like she had no privacy. She wanted just one room that was all hers. That was one of the reasons she loved her apartment. It was old and very small, but it was all hers. Then she moved into what she considered a mansion, somewhere she never thought she’d live, and had nothing for herself.

She knew if she asked, Christian would give her any room in the house, but everything was still so new, she hadn’t wanted to ask for anything because he’d given so much to her already.

Harmony thought, with time, she’d settle in better and become more accustomed to her surroundings. She had learned that she needed to have a purpose, also. She hadn’t been happywith college, but if she couldn’t find something to take up her time, she’d think about going back. In the meantime, she’d look for some volunteering or a part-time job to keep her busy.

She knew herself well enough to know she could very easily drive herself and Christian crazy if she had too much time on her hands. That’s the last thing she wanted to do.

Chapter Sixteen

Harmony watched as Christian laid a folded shirt into the open luggage, which he set on the mattress next to her hip.

The thought of being without him for a few nights made her anxious and hollow. They hadn’t been together long, just six months, but in that short amount of time, he’d become the center of her universe.

“Why can’t I come?”

Christian slipped a pair of shoes in the bag before he turned to her.

“Baby, you would be so bored. I’ll be busy all day and into the night.”

“I could sightsee while you’re working.”

“There’s no way I’d allow you to roam a city like Chicago by yourself.”

“Couldn’t Connor or Nico go with me?” She tried to calm her nerves, so she didn’t sound as desperate as she felt. That week she’d felt him distance himself from her and had a sense he was holding something back from her. She was thinking he was getting tired of her. In the bedroom, things were still passionate and loving as they always had been, but during the day, he seemed to be more preoccupied.

Christian shook his head. “No, Baby. They’re both busy and off and on for the next few days. One or both will be here with you the whole time, so if you need anything, just ask them.”

She felt her stomach tighten as she heard him zip the luggage closed. He grabbed the bag and his briefcase and walked out of the room.

“Why can’t I take you to the airport?” He’d even blocked her from doing that.

Christian set his things down and turned to her to cup her face.
