“Come, Evangeline. Come. Come all over me. God…you feel…so amazing.” When he sensed I was done, he pulled out of me and jerked himself hard as he bent his head back. I watched in amazement as endless streams of his hot cum shot out onto my stomach. Out of everything we’d done, nothing had turned me on more than seeing him come.
Even though I was sore, I wanted to go another round just so I could see him orgasm again. It truly fascinated me.
Sevin planted himself on top of me. His hard chest pressed against my breasts as he kissed me deeply before pulling back. “That night in the barn, you said you dreamt about making love in the rain. I’ll never forget that. I wished so hard that I could be the one to do that with you, thinking it would never be possible. No matter what happens, I’ll never forget this, the best night of my life.”
We lay together for an indeterminate amount of time before Sevin led me into the truck. We sat in silence for many minutes until he turned to me. That was when the mood darkened. “Do you know how it felt to know that the next time I was supposed to see your face was when you were walking down the aisle at my wedding to your sister? How fucked up is that?”
“I’m sorry. I thought you’d understand.”
“I do understand. Too well. That’s the problem. You love me. I love you. It’s actually quite fucking simple.”
“Simple?”
“I love you so much, Evangeline. To me, it was crystal clear what needed to happen, and it didn’t involve either one of us marrying other people.”
“You made a promise to my sister who loves you. I was trying to make it easier for you.”
“You know what? In a way, you did make it easier for me. You helped me see that I couldn’t marry Elle.”
“What happens now?”
“I’m not going to go through with any of it. I’m leaving. I can’t pretend to love someone else, not when I’m hopelessly in love with you. That’s not ever going to change. Even if you didn’t exist, it’s not fair to marry someone whose love you can’t return. I see that now that I know how powerful real love is. I’d also be keeping her from experiencing being on the receiving end of that.”
“Do you understand what you’re saying? Daddy will ruin you. He’ll run you out of town if you do this after all of the investment he put into your future.”
“Did you not hear me say I was leaving? I understand the repercussions.”
“You’re going to ruin your life. You won’t have a job, a roof over your head…nothing. That doesn’t matter to you?”
“It matters in the sense that I don’t want to hurt Elle. But the other stuff is not important to me. There is nothing that matters to me more than you. I won’t let you marry him just to get away from me. And I won’t make you watch me marry your sister when I know in my heart it would hurt you beyond belief. No career in the world is worth knowing you’re suffering because of me.”
“Where will you go?”
“Anywhere but here.”
Grabbing his hand, I looked out at the rain pelting the window. “This is a shock.”
“Is it really, though? This day was always going to come. You couldn’t feel it looming? I knew in my bones that it would be impossible to stay away from you. I think I knew that from the very first time I saw you sitting across from me at that dining room table the day we first met. What we have is too strong.”
On the verge of tears, I asked, “What are we going to do? Daddy’s going to make your life a living hell. I don’t want you hurt, either.”
“The only thing that can possibly hurt me is losing you.”
“Where does Elle think you are right now?”
“I told her I was going back to Oklahoma for a few days. I lied. I made up a story about my brother needing me. I had to get away to figure out how I’m gonna tell her.”
“She’s going to be devastated.”
“Would you rather me do it in two years after Elle and I are married with a kid?”
Just the mention of his having a child with Elle made me nauseous.
He continued, “My mother didn’t die giving birth to me so I could spend my life living a lie. She wouldn’t want that. I want to live the truth. And you’re my truth.”
“I want us to be together. But how? How can I possibly do this to my sister?”
“I’ll love you in secret if I have to.”
“In secret?”
“If you can’t break her heart, no one has to know.”
“But how?”
“I don’t have the exact answers yet. Maybe I can build a life somewhere out of town but close by. We can be together there until we can figure things out. Maybe someday things will be different. Elle will find someone who truly loves her. We can tell them someday what happened.”
