Page 26 of Rules We Break

“Or tenses them if you’re in pain from the scalding.”

I hook the showerhead back to the faucet, and she turns around to face me, rolling her eyes.

“Hand me the conditioner?”

She nods toward the bottle behind me. I hand it to her, and she works it into the ends of her hair. After she’s done working her hair up into a bun and held back with a claw clip, she picks up the soap and hands it to me.

“My body next?”

I grin and then spin her around, pulling her back to my front before getting some bodywash and then putting the bottle to the side. Her skin is soft and smooth, and when I run my hands over her breasts, her nipples are pebbled from the heat of the water. Her skin is a pretty pink color under the suds of the soap.

I make sure to lather up every square inch of her body, touching her and teasing her. I dip between her thighs, just a little, just to taunt her. She groans and lays her head back on my shoulder, grabbing my hand and forcing it back down her body.

The water streams down over both of us, letting all the soap suds rinse down the drain. I let her guide me to where she wants me. She lifts one of her legs up on the small seat that’s in the shower, giving me the best access to her pussy.

When I part her open and slip a finger inside, she rewards me by moaning my name. My name has never sounded so sweet. I bring her wetness up to her clit, circling it with the tip of my finger just as she reaches behind her to grab onto my dick.

Her hand twists slightly as she strokes me, squeezing when she gets to the head. Fuck, that feels amazing. She even takes a moment each time to run the tips of her fingers on that sensitive spot underneath. I can’t even think about the soreness from last night. Her hand and the warm water are making that nonexistent.

“I want to come like this,” she says, looking up at me over her shoulder. “Together. I want us to come at the same time.”

“Okay, boss lady,” I agree with a smirk. “We can do that.”

I lean forward and kiss her, but the position we’re in makes it a little difficult to do it for very long. So instead, she just lays her head back on my shoulder, and we watch each other.

Extended eye contact used to freak me out—it felt too personal and too deep. But looking into her eyes right now as we both chase our pleasure, I’m surprised at how much I love it. Her eyes hold me captive, and my heart rate kicks out of control.

I dip two fingers inside of her and watch as her mouth drops open on a gasp. Her hand pumps me faster, the rhythm in time with my fingers inside of her. I dip inside and then swirl her clit, over and over. Our chests move at the same time, heaving as the heat spreads through both of our bodies. And the entire time, our eyes stay locked on one another.

“I’m going to come,” she whines. “Tell me you’re close. I can’t hold back.”

“I’m close, baby,” I whisper. “Keep going. Just like that. It feels so fucking good.”

Her free hand goes to her nipples, pulling and twisting them as her orgasm builds. I can feel my own—I’m right on the edge. Just a few…more…strokes.

“I’m coming!” I cry out just as her pussy clamps down around my fingers.

I shoot all over her ass as her fist slows, and my fingers halt their movements inside of her. Her eyes flutter, and she looks so fucking beautiful. I push her hand away and pull out of her to spin her around to face me. Grabbing onto her face, I pull her to me in a bruising kiss.

This I could get used to. Waking up every day to her in bed and playing in the shower together. Then having her again when I come home in the evenings. I’ll get to show her off in public—finally. And we can live our lives the way we should’ve been able to the first time we tried this.

She can finally bemine.

“Mine,” I growl into her mouth when I can’t hold back the feelings anymore.

She looks up at me with dazed eyes.

“Huh?” she asks like she didn’t hear me. But she did. She just wants to hear it again.

“Mine.” I nip at her bottom lip. “You’re mine. And I’m yours, Ivy. Everyone will know it. It’s how it should’ve been the first time we got together.”

“But we couldn’t—”

“I know we couldn’t.” One of my hands leaves her hair to grab hold of her round ass. “But we can now. And I’m not letting you go again. I want this every day. All of this. You. The late-night junk food. The sex. All the shitty dancing you drag me to.”

She laughs. “Yeah?”

“I want the dating, hopefully the marriage, maybe the kids. Whatever you want, I’m down for. I want to give you the life you said you’ve missed out on the two decades. Anything you want, Ivy. I will give it to you.”
