Devour Me, Baby(47)

I joined Samuel in the hall where he was pacing. He stopped when he saw me and folded his arms over his chest, staring at me darkly. “I actually stopped by to tell you that Marcus will be here tomorrow. I’d called him about changing my will the day after Lilah arrived anyway, so I simply told him there was an urgency that I’d explain when he arrived. I know you’ve been digging into him, so bring anything you’ve found to the meeting.”

I mirrored his stance, though I kept my expression neutral. “Text me the time and place.”

Samuel nodded and headed for the front door. I held it open silently, watching him step outside and wishing there was something I could say—wait. There was something. “Samuel.” He paused. “I love her. She’s my Bonnie.”

His head whipped around and he looked stunned. Then confused. “I don’t know how to digest that, Ethan,” he mumbled. “It’s a lot to take in.” He held out his hand, and a trickle of relief floated through my veins as we shook. At least it was something.

After he was gone, I shut the door and turned to look for Lilah. I didn’t have to go far. She was standing right behind me, her face masked with the same shell-shocked expression Samuel had been wearing.

“Were you telling him the truth?” she rasped.

I prowled over so I was standing practically toe to toe with her and cupped her face in my hands. “It just hit me that I haven’t told you, baby girl. I’m so sorry, those words should have been for you first.” I kissed her lips softly.

“You love me?” she parroted.

“More than anything.” I slid my hands down, over her tits, down her flat belly, around her waist, and they landed on her ass. Gripping her cheeks, I hoisted her up so her legs came around my hips, and she grabbed onto my biceps. “I love you and our little one more than words could ever say,” I whispered before sealing my mouth over hers.

Our kisses were drugging and I was addicted, I knew I would never get enough of her taste. I stumbled around for a moment before finding a wall to press her back against and ground my erection into the juncture between her legs.

She tore her lips away and I growled in protest, seeking them out again. “I love you too.” I stopped and lifted my hooded gaze so our eyes met. Her crystal blue pools were overflowing with emotion and it spread warmth throughout my body. Since I was already on fire for her, it blew my desire up by epic proportions.

I dropped her to the ground and fell to my knees. Making quick work of her button and zipper, I had her bare from the waist down in seconds. With lust controlling my mind, I spread her legs and dove in to lick between the folds of her pussy. She was wet, so fucking wet. I latched on to her clit and sucked hard while plunging two fingers inside her. A few thrusts and she was screaming my name. I kept at it, holding her tight when her knees buckled.

She was practically tearing my hair out with her grip, and it was sexy as fuck. I surged to my feet, whipped out my cock, lifted her and yanked her down as I pumped up. She cried out, and I felt my eyes roll back in pure bliss.

“Fuck! You are so damn tight every time, baby girl. But you’re drenched and I slide right in. Yes! Take it, Lilah.” I braced her securely against the wall and drove in, over and over.

“Ethan! Oh yes, I’m—oh! Yes!”

I fucking loved it when she got loud.

“I’m going to—”

I halted abruptly, though it took everything in me to do so. “What’s the rule, Lilah?” I snarled.

“I can’t hold it back, Ethan!” she whimpered.

“You will,” I commanded, then resumed fucking her, hard and fast.

“Please, please, please.” She was chanting, writhing with the effort to hold back.

My balls tightened and drew up, a tingling spreading from the base of my spine. “Together, baby girl,” I grated. A few seconds more, and I roared, “Now!”

Color and sensation burst in front of my eyes. Shudders of pleasure wracked through my body, and I could feel the same tremble from Lilah. The walls could have come tumbling down and neither of us would have noticed.

“I love you so damn much,” I whispered when I was finally steady on my feet.

“I love you too, Ethan.”

Delilah



I probably should have left good enough alone, but I just couldn’t leave things the way they were with my dad and Ethan. I waited until after Ethan had left for his office, since he had a couple meetings he said he couldn’t miss, and I got dressed to go out. Ethan had left me a set of car keys, so I grabbed them and went out to the SUV they belonged to. Then I headed to my dad’s office. I was hoping that the element of surprise would be enough to get him to really listen to me.
