Jensen
Sitting on the couch,with Brynn straddling my lap, I pull down the top of her dress, and lean in to drag my tongue over her nipple. She grips my head, holding me in place as I suck triggering a moan to escape her lips.
“You set me on fire, baby,” I confess. I’m still incredibly pissed that she even had to face Chrissy. The things she tried to convince her of, planting doubt in her mind, it was hard not to go after her.
This, being with Brynn, even if I’m simply holding her in my arms while she sleeps, or sitting at her side, it’s my favorite place to be.
She has me, and I’m not sure she truly understands how deep my feelings run for her.
“I love you so much,” I tell her as she grinds on my lap. “So fucking much, I adore you.”
Gliding my hands over her thighs I dip beneath her dress and up her hips. One of her skimpy pairs of panties lies beneath. One thing about my girl, she loves her sexy undergarments. She also loves to tease me with them.
“Take me to bed,” she whispers against my lips, thrusting, shifting her hips forward like she does when she rides me. “I want to feel you inside me.” My cock twitches at the thought and I stand, lifting her with me. Walking down the hall, she wraps her legs securely around me, and holds tight. Gripping my face, she kisses me deeply and I pause, pressing her to the wall just outside my bedroom. Lifting to meet her she again grinds down and I know that the thin material does nothing to hide my hard erection straining against my jeans.
“Jensen,” she practically pants my name and I push off the wall, entering my bedroom.
Lowering her to the bed, I lay over her and continue to kiss her. She reaches between us, stroking me through my jeans, before hurrying to undo my buckle. Her movements are quick, she is needy and desperate. I love knowing she needs me so much.
She pushes down my pants, and I reach down, helping her. When they get tangled around my thighs I stand removing them and my boxers the rest of the way.
Then I grab the dress that is still pooled around her waist and drag it downward hooking her sheer panties along the way.
Her legs fall open and I see how wet she is as she glistens. Dragging the tip of my finger over her, she parts and I push my finger inside of her.
“I need you,” she says, reaching for me while still shifting her hips, riding my finger. “Please.”
Pulling back I crawl over her and grip my cock, positioning myself at her entrance. In one slow torturous movement I push inside her and she arches her back.
Fully seated, I kiss along the side of her neck, sucking on her earlobe.
“Home,” I whisper. It is exactly what being with Brynn feels like. My safe place, a comfort I’ve never felt before and one I never want to lose. “You are my home,” I repeat, cupping her face and making sure she is looking at me. I slowly move inside of her, her body hugging me so tight. “I am so in love with you.” Her eyes shine with tears. “You own me.” Her chest rises and she takes a deep breath.
“You own me too.” And I know what saying that means. I know why she holds back, why she’s so afraid to admit that what is happening between us is more than she’s ever felt before. She’s afraid if something happens and what we have falls apart, she will too.
“You and me,” I whisper, kissing her softly. My hips are still moving slowly as I drag out the feeling of entering her over and over. “It”s us,” I say, nibbling on her lower lip, before sucking softly. “I want this life with you, I want it all.”
She nods, and I push in deep, making her gasp. “You have me completely, you are my world.”
I increase my movements, giving her a little more.
“Don’t you ever let anyone give you doubt, baby. Because what I feel for you, it cannot be diminished. I’ve never needed anyone the way I need you.”
Her back arches and I feel her body tighten around me, and she whispers my name. An orgasm rocks through her as I slowly pump my hips.
“So fucking good,” I whisper. It’s not just physical with Brynn, it”s emotional. It’s crippling how deep I feel for her.
“Feel me,” I tell her, needing her to understand how raw I feel.
“I feel you,” she replies and it’s all I need. I go harder and deeper, loving how tight she grips my cock. Her fingernails dig into my shoulder and I fist the sheet. I bite down on her shoulder, sucking to keep from hurting her. My toes curl, she pumps her hips and again she reaches her peak as I fall over the edge with her.
“How was the trip?”Brynn hugs her sister-in-law, and I stand back giving her the space she needs to welcome both her brother and his wife home.
“It was beautiful,” Ciara gushes. “But it’s nice to be home too.”
Brynn then hugs her brother, and I notice how he looks at me while doing so.
“Let’s move into the living room,” their mother interrupts and holds her hand out for us to walk in the direction of the sunken living room.
“How’s the case going?” Brynn’s father asks as the two of us linger behind. “Any new leads?”
“We picked up some footage from the neighbor”s backyard camera. Two people for sure, can’t confirm if they are men or women, but they entered the house from the alley and left the same way on foot. It’s distorted footage, but we are scouring the neighborhood hoping that anyone has anything from a different angle or possibly a vehicle they may have gotten into after leaving the home.”
“That poor woman,” Clara says as we all sit. Brynn sits at my side, leaning back into me as I wrap my arm around her shoulders.
I ignore the looks of Sebastian as he closely watches our interactions. Brynn rests her hand on my thigh.
“I can’t imagine going through something as horrific as she had to endure.” Ciara shivers at the thought. Sebastian rubs over her back and leans in to kiss her forehead. It’s a side of him you don’t see often. Reminds me that behind all the resentment and disdain for me, there is a guy with a heart.
The conversation flows easily, and for the first time I feel like I belong. As we stand to go to the kitchen, as dinner is ready, Sebastian reaches out to shake my hand.
“I’m trusting that you’ll love her the way she deserves to be loved.”
“I will,” I assure him.
I notice the way both Ciara and Brynn linger in the doorway watching the scene unfold. The look on Brynn’s face mirrors what I feel, but Ciara, something tells me she played a part in this change of heart.
