My Step-Dad's Brother(21)

“When I propose for real, I’m going to remind you that you already said yes,” he warned me as his lips twisted into a satisfied smirk. Then he gave me exactly what I needed, pumping in and out of me as his hand slid in between us until his finger was able to circle my clit. I flew apart screaming his name. My nails digging into his back as I drew his body as close to me as I could get him.

“Yes,” he hissed out on his next thrust, my pussy clenching around his cock. His body went rigid, and he tumbled into oblivion with me.

I felt closer to him than I ever had before. All was right in the world, cocooned away from everything else with his arms wrapped around me and his cock deep inside me. It was the most beautiful moment we’d had together... right up until I heard my mom’s startled cry.

My head jerked towards the noise, and I found her and Stanley standing in the doorway. Harrison and I had been so wrapped up in each other, we hadn’t heard them return.

“Oh crap!” I yelped.

Harrison moved quickly, yanking the bedspread over us and rolling to make sure I was completely covered. “Out!” he roared, when he looked over his shoulder and saw that they were both still standing there, staring at us with shocked looks on their faces.

“Oh dear,” my mom breathed out, jumping back to slam the door shut.

I didn’t hear another word from my mom, which was completely out of the ordinary for her. She always had something to say, which meant we’d managed to shock her speechless.

Stanley, on the other hand, knocked roughly on the door.

“Magnolia, I think it would be best if Harrison came down and talked to me alone. I’ll send your mom up to you so she can make sure you’re okay.” His voice was stern but not harsh, until he spoke to Harrison and it became jagged and fury filled. “Harrison, get your ass out of my daughter’s bed and downstairs. Now.”

“Oh shit,” I moaned once I heard his footsteps moving away and tears filled my eyes.

“Hush, baby doll. Everything’s going to be fine.”

“Fine? Fine!” I squealed. “How is anything ever going to be fine again? My mom and step-dad just saw us having sex!”

“No, they saw us after we’d just finished,” he corrected.

I pushed on his chest and scurried off the mattress to grab my clothes from the floor. Throwing them on, I kept muttering to myself. “That’s basically the same thing. You were naked. I was naked. Your dick was inside me. This is not how I wanted to break the news to them.”

“Maggie,” he snapped, snagging my attention. “Our relationship is good news, not something you have to break to them. Does it suck that they found out this way? Yes. Is it the end of the world? No. Nothing’s really changed. I love you. You love me. At the end of today, we’re going to climb into our bed together, just like we always will from now on.”

“But my mom—”

“Your mom loves you and wants you to be happy. She’ll come around once she realizes that we belong together.”

Logically, I knew he was right. Plus, my mom had always been unconventional, so her daughter falling in love with her new brother-in-law was something she might come to accept sooner than most parents would. Hopefully. But her new husband? Not so much. “And Stanley?”

“He might be harder to convince”—Harrison pulled his shirt over his head and stalked towards me—“considering the size of the stick up his ass. But I’ve seen the way he looks at your mom. Hopefully, falling in love with her will have softened him up a little bit.”

“That hardly sounds optimistic.”

He stole my lips for a quick, but deep, kiss. “I love my brother, but I’m not going to let him, or anyone else, stand between me and you.”

“Agreed.” I gripped his hand firmly in mine and reached for the door with my other hand. “We do this together.”

I just wished it didn’t feel like we were off to face a firing squad.





Chapter 11


Harrison


I opened the door to Maggie’s bedroom to find Bunny pacing and wringing her hands. She stopped suddenly and stared at us, wide-eyed. When her eyes met mine, she shook her head, disappointment washing over her face.

She moved towards Maggie, but I pulled her into my side, refusing to leave her behind. “We’ll discuss this all together, Bunny,” I informed her, my tone making it clear I was going to be unbending on this issue. “I’m not going to leave Maggie to face either of you alone.”

Bunny’s expression softened just the tiniest bit, but she locked eyes with Maggie and asked, “Are you okay?”

“I’m great, Mom,” Maggie assured her. “This was my choice. No one forced me or coerced me.”
