Her back arches, her hands resting on my chest as she rotates her hips, riding out the pleasure. She takes everything she needs from me and leaves me at her mercy.
My body is weak, my heart is completely hers.
I’m so in love with this woman. She is my everything, my future, all I want and all I need.
Lexi collapses, her chest pressing to mine, as she tries to regain the strength her orgasm drained from her. Feeling her lips softly pressing kisses over my chest, I comb my fingers through her hair, needing to see her face. When our eyes lock on each other’s, I pull her lips to mine, kissing her slowly.
A moment shared, a deep connection without words as she begins to once again move over me.
Grabbing her hips I shift beneath her, pushing in deeper, holding her tightly against me. “I love you,” I whisper with my lips still gliding over hers. “So in love with you, sweetheart. So in love,” I tell her as I feel her tighten around me once more. I let go, emptying myself within her as she whispers my name in the darkness of the room.
We lay just as we are, both trying to gain our composure, as I roll taking her with me. Hovering above her I watch her, pushing back the hair from her face.
“You are incredible,” I tell her and she closes her eyes but only for a few seconds.
“I can barely feel my legs,” she confesses with a sweet smile.
I glide my palm over her knee, up her thigh and pause at her hip. “Feel that?”
She nods.
“I don’t want to leave.” I know she thinks it’s best for Camryn but the kid already knows she and I are together. I hate these late-night bootie calls where I sneak out in the earlier hours of themorning. I want to fall asleep with her and wake up with her still pressed in tightly against me.
“You could stay,” she says, lightly skating her fingers over my chest. “Camryn doesn’t wake up on Saturdays until late. We could tell her that you came for breakfast.”
“I like that plan.” I kiss her.
“Me too.” She hooks her leg over my hip, pulling me in closer. “Besides tomorrow is lunch at my dad’s. Were you still going to come?”
“Yeah.” I can feel myself growing hard once again as she shifts her hips, sliding her wetness over me.
I will never tire of her, I know this. She has an incredibly deep hold on me that I can’t seem to explain. What I know is that I’d do anything she asks, give her anything she wants, and I’m not ashamed to admit Lexi James has me wrapped around her finger.
Reaching in between us, I grip my cock and push forward entering her once again. This time I take control and swallow her moans. The bed rocks, the headboard squeaks, but I continue. My legs go weak as the pleasure builds within me.
The instant I feel her tighten and her fingernails dig into my back I let go and we fall together. Unable to catch my breath I collapse and she whispersI love you toonext to my ear.
“My girl seems happy, Bennett,”Lexi’s dad, Carl, says to me as we sit in his living room watching television. Lexi is in the kitchen getting Camryn a cookie. I look over at him to find him watching his daughter and Camryn interact.
“She’s smiling and laughing and there for a while I wasn’t sure I’d ever see that again.” He smiles, shifting his attention back to me. “I know I have you to partially thank for that. You and Camryn, the two of you are really good for her.”
“She’s really good for us,” I correct him and he doesn’t argue, only nods his head. “I love your daughter, Carl,” I confess, holding his stare. “It took me far too long to accept that but what I can promise is that I will never be that foolish again. Lexi deserves the world and I will bust my ass every day to give it to her. Because her smile, it lights up the room. I never want to see her sadness again.”
“I’m gonna hold you to that.” He nods. “It’s only ever been her and I since we lost her mother. She’s had too much heartache in her life. My daughter, she has a lot of love to give.”
“And I feel extremely lucky to be one of those she offers that love to. I will never take it for granted.”
I’ve made that mistake once. It’s a mistake I will never make again.
CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE
Lexi
“I thinkwe should make cookies tomorrow,” I say as I take a bite of the store-bought cookies my dad had bought. God love him, I know he just wanted to have something here for Camryn as a treat. The man can’t bake for the life of him, so these were the better option.
“What kind?” Camryn asks, taking another bite and not showing signs of caring they are store-bought. She’s not had the luxury of Jillian’s baking genius yet.
“We could invite Jilly,” I tell her. “She can make the best cookies. Actually her cinnamon rolls, now those are good.”
