Page 108 of Surviving Lies

Bearing down, I pushed in and out of her at a pace that pushed me to the edge, finally getting there and exploding inside. My body twitched in her arms as her hands rubbed my back, my thrusts slowing down until I came to a stop. I lowered myself gently on top of her, trying to catch my breath. My sweaty brow matched hers, and I noticed her hair matted to the sides of her head.

Becca chuckled lightly under me.

“What are you laughing at?” I asked.

“Well,” she said, “you’ve always been fucking amazing in bed. But this was a whole ’nother level. I just don’t want us to have to have makeup sex all the time to do that again.”

I laughed along with her, enjoying that we had gotten back some of our normal already.

“I’m sure we’ll figure it out. No more fights – at least not like what we just went through,” I told her. I moved off her and made her turn toward me, belly to belly. “I can’t go through that again, Bec. Never.”

“I know.” She reached out and moved the long pieces of my hair out of my face. “I won’t jump to conclusions anymore without talking to you first,” she said. The contrite look on her face made me feel bad, but she had some culpability in this.

“And I will keep nothing from you again, even if it might make you upset.”

She nodded, seemingly thankful for that.

“How about we pretend to be in a fight and get mad at each other and yell and shit so we can have makeup sex like this?” she asked.

“Or,” I said, “and I’m going out on a limb, but what if we just up our game and do this next time anyway, without the fight? And maybe, if you’re interested, and it sounds like you are, we can start spicing things up even more.” I waited a second to gauge her response.

Her finger went to my torso, the nail scratching a line down my abs. “Tyler Brennan, what dirty things have you been hiding from me?” Her hand trailed down to the tip of my dick, the old condom still in place. She slid it off and wrapped it in a tissue. Her hand came back, cupping my balls, and that got an immediate rise from my dick. “Why don’t we keep going right now? Who says we have to wait fornext time?”Her sultry look had me ready to go.

Swinging her on top of me, I grabbed her ass and pulled her against me, my erection pressing into her belly. “Did I ever say we were done right now?”

She smiled down at me.

“I’m not letting you go all night, Bec. I’m going to fuck you until you beg me to stop, and then I might have to fuck you one last time, if you agree, of course.”

She rolled us over again, with me on top of her this time. With her arms wrapped around my neck, she brushed her lips along mine. “I will never tire of you fucking me. Well, I might get tired, but as soon as I wake up, you will fuck me again and again. We have a lot of lost time to make up for.”

She reached for my wallet.

“Bec, we don’t have to wear those.” And I meant it. “I’m in a relationship where, if it happens, I’d be happy.”

Through a soft smile, she responded to me. “Ty, that means a lot to me, thank you. But one baby is enough for right now, don’t ya think? Let’s be kids with each other while we’re here, together. And we will be adults when we go home on the weekends.”

And right then I knew, one day, she would be my wife.

Chapter 32

Becca

“Lanie, get your ass in this car!” I screamed at her. I hadn’t seen her since Ty and I made up, and I needed to tell her everything. She took her time walking out of Xander’s apartment, and he was walking her all the way to my car. Maybe this situation with Max was a bit more serious than they first let on.

“Hey, Bec,” Xander said as he approached my side of the car. “Good to see you smiling.”Histhousand-watt smile was always good to see. He leaned in the car before talking. “Just keep an eye out for anything out of the ordinary while you guys are out, OK? Call me if you see anything weird.”

I nodded, not liking how this was sounding.

“Xander, we’ll be fine. Don’t be so dramatic,” Lanie said. “There’s really no cause for concern. They are under house arrest and have guards in front of their homes.”

“Yeah, and they’re considering guards here soon, too, so it is a big deal, Lanes,” Xander said, almost reprimanding her.

Lanie gave him a meek smile before kissing him goodbye.

Fuck. This was some big-time shit they had going on again.

“I’m on Lanie duty. Got it, Xander?” I said his way. “We’re picking up Ava and Macie, too. They weren’t ready yet. It will be the four of us going to brunch, so we should be good.”
