Chapter 56 Beau
BEAU
It’s getting late, but I can’t bring myself to move Honey off me. Her hair is all over my chest and her naked body is pressed along mine.
Not taking her up on her offer to have sex last night was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. But based on the way she knocked out after she came, she’s not ready to go all the way. And that’s fine. Even if my balls protested half the night.
“Babe, I gotta get up.”
“Don’t go,” she whispers before falling asleep again.
I eventually slide out of bed to brush my teeth, take a piss, and feed the cat. By then, she’s starting to stir.
“Want some coffee?”
She shoves her hair out of her face and nods. “But first come here.” She pats the side of the bed, and I join her.
“You okay? Does your head hurt? Did we do too much last night?”
“I’m good. I swear.” She tugs me down, and I wrap my arm around her.
We’re face to face. She grins at me. “Morning.”
“Hi, beautiful.”
Her eyes widen. “Do I have morning breath?”
“Can’t tell over the taste of my toothpaste.”
That satisfies her, and she snuggles closer to kiss me. “I’m sorry I fell asleep.”
“I’m not. You need your rest.”
She tosses her thigh over mine and nibbles her bottom lip. “Maybe we could have slow morning sex. You know, nothing too athletic.”
Groaning, I move to my back. “Don’t. My balls can’t handle it.”
“No oral this time. Just P in V.”
I chuckle. “P in V?”
“Yeah. I figure it’s a great way to start the day, like taking your vitamins. You’re sending endorphins all through your body. That has to be healthy.”
My dick is on board, but her health is my priority. “How’s your head?”
“It’s fantastic. I feel wonderful. And hey, I don’t even need to come. I just want to make you feel as good as you made me feel last night.”
Turning on my side again, I cup the back of her head. “You always make me feel good. I don’t need sex for that.”
Her eyes soften. “Let me reciprocate.”
“This isn’t a tit for tat.”
Sitting up, she lets the sheet drop down. “What about tits?”
Honey is too sexy for her own good. I strip off my tee and drag her down to me. She snuggles closer with a giggle. “I have twenty minutes before I need to leave.”
Grinning, she unbuttons my jeans, and I help her shove them down. “Then we’d better hurry.”
I suck in a breath as she jerks me off slowly.
Then I remember. “Fuck. I’m out of condoms.” It was my failsafe, so I wasn’t tempted to have sex with Honey before she was ready.
She blinks at me. “I’m on the pill. And…” She nibbles on her bottom lip. “I’d like to feel you inside of me… without any barriers.”
Fuck.
I try to think with the big head on my shoulders for a minute. I just had a baby scare. Do we really want to go without a condom?
As I stare at the beautiful woman in front of me, all the noise stops. Someday, we’ll have kids together. She’s my future.
Yeah, I’m good. “Come here. Slow and gentle, remember?”
She nods and scoots close again. I run my hands over her soft body. Over her beautiful tits. Over her perfect ass. Down to where she weeps for me.
I lift her leg over mine and work her over with two fingers before I get my cock wet with her arousal. Then I drag it up and down her pussy until she’s moaning.
She might have said this was just for me, but I’ll be damned if she doesn’t come too.
When she’s panting in my ear, I roll her over and work my cock into her tight body. It takes a few tries before I wedge myself in. “Fuck, baby, you feel good.” She’s so tight and warm and wet. Once I’m fully seated, I stop to draw soft circles on her clit.
“Beau.” She arches back, and I lean down to suck on her pretty nipples.
Her whole body starts to tense, and that’s when I thrust my hips, all the while circling her swollen flesh. Her chest is flushed. Her hair is all over my pillows. Her scent surrounds me.
“Let go, princess.” I shift my hips, and she sucks in a breath.
“Don’t stop!”
Looking down, I watch my cock slide in and out of her tight hole. “So fucking good. Look at how well you take me.”
“Oh my God.” She quakes around my dick, and I pull her close, trying my best to hold off. It isn’t until she rakes her nails down my back that I let myself go.
I come with a shout as I find my release. It’s literally the best sex of my life. Nothing I’ve experienced before compares to doing this with someone I love. Honey is everything.
We lie tangled together and panting while I run my hand down her back. “Love you, Honey.”
She lets out a sleepy sigh. “Love you too.”
I kiss her. “You’re gonna spoil me with morning sex. A guy could get used to this.”
She groans and shivers in my arms, a sated smile on her gorgeous face. “That’s the plan.”
I should tell her. Because the last thing I wanna do is get caught telling a lie. That’s a bad way to start a relationship.
Honey and I are sitting in Rhett’s living room. She turns to me with a soft smile and whispers, “Thanks for this morning. I’m happily tension-free.”
Leaning down, I kiss her, wishing I could say the same. “Here’s to many more mornings waking up like that.” It’s on the tip of my tongue. “Listen, I need to tell—”
Someone knocks on the front door. Rhett and Paige are in the kitchen with the kids, so I get up to open it.
A man stands there, holding a little girl. He seems so familiar and yet not. I squint at him a second. His dark eyes crinkle in the corners as he smiles. Fucking hell. “Isaiah?”
“That you, Beau? Jesus, you’ve grown.”
’Cause I’m not a kid anymore. I pull him into a hug. “We all thought you were dead, since you haven’t been responding to our texts for a while.” Because he used to pipe up every now and again in our family chat.
He pats my back with his free hand. “Had spotty coverage. Sorry about that. I’m happy to say I’m alive and well.”
I look at the little girl, who’s sucking her thumb. She looks like she’s maybe two or three. “And who’s this little angel?”
He nods slowly. “This is my daughter, Everly.”
Holy shit. I don’t really know what to say. But Rhett does. He stands next to me and crosses his arms. “You had a kid and didn’t tell anyone?”
Isaiah grins. “Good to see you too.”
Rhett shakes his head and pulls him into a bear hug as he mutters asshole. Then he turns to Zey’s daughter. “Aren’t you beautiful? Hi, darlin’. I’m your uncle Rhett.”
She burrows her head in her dad’s neck, and Zey strokes her hair. “She’s shy, and it’s been a long few days.”
Paige pushes us out of the way. “Isaiah! Oh my God. I’m so glad you made it for the wedding.”
He pauses. “Little Paige Lewis, is that you?”
“Yup!”
“You were a kid last time I saw you.” After he hugs her, he tilts his head. “You’re married to Rhett now, right? Or Beau?”
Rhett growls. “She’s mine, asshole. And it’s Paige Walker now.”
I chuckle at my possessive brother and hold out my hand for Honey, who tucks herself under my arm. “I don’t know if you remember my girlfriend, Honey McAllister.”
Zey’s brows hike up. “As in Trig and Cash’s little sister?” He heads outside again and looks at the house. “Had to make sure I’m at the right address. Didn’t realize we were tight with the McAllisters now. Guess I’ve been gone for a while, huh?”
Honey laughs. “The Walker-McAllister treaty is a work in progress. I’d consider this a cessation of hostilities.”
I kiss her forehead. “I’ll take what I can get.”
Especially if it means her brothers help me tonight.
A few hours later, I’m still reeling over the fact that Isaiah came home with a fucking kid in his arms, but I have to shift my focus.
I wipe my palms on my jeans. This has to work.
As Cash pulls up to the mansion, Trig smacks the back of my head. “Don’t lose my money.”
“I won’t, asshole. Stop hitting me.” I turn to glare at him in the back seat.
“You fucked my girlfriend.”
This again. “I’ve scrubbed it from my brain. Mel’s all yours.” And her baby, thank God. Hopefully, Melissa and Trig will work out their issues.
“Children, behave,” Baylee tuts. “Y’all don’t know Beau like I do. He’s a hundred percent trustworthy with your funds.”
I smile at my soon-to-be sister-in-law. “I hope Honey’s not mad about this. I had to tell a white lie and say I was running an errand for Rhett.”
“She’ll understand. Just make sure you don’t go home smelling like another woman’s perfume.” Her stare turns menacing as she makes the universal symbol with her fingers that she’s watching me.
I love that Honey has friends like Baylee who have her back. “You have nothing to worry about.” Since I got with Honey, it’s like I don’t even notice other women.
Trig sits forward. “Yeah, don’t be ogling everyone’s tits. ’Cause the girls are topless in there, right?”
“How would you know?”
Looking away, he shrugs. “I’ve heard things.” But then his jaw tightens and his hard stare returns. “I’m just sayin’, if you handle those other tits, we’re gonna have a problem.”
“Trust me. The only tits I wanna handle are your sister’s.”
He grimaces. “Why would you say that, fucker?”
“You’re the one who brought up tits.”
Cash taps his fist on the steering wheel. “Beau, we’ll pick you up when you’re done. Don’t want you mugged on the way out.”
“Appreciate that.”
“Don’t let anyone see how much money you have.”
“Thanks, Dad. Got it.” Jesus, he’s as pushy as Rhett sometimes. I tuck the cash into my jacket. “You know I’ve done this before, right?”
“But not for this much money.” He hands me the invitation to the Devil’s Den, a mask, and an envelope. “Here’s Cynthia’s contribution.”
It’s another five grand. I whistle. “I hope she knows this doesn’t mean Honey will forgive her.” Though it might soften her up a little.
He shrugs. “Not my problem. Cynthia offered, and I figured it’s the least she could do. I’m just happy she nabbed the invite from her sorry-ass stepbrother.”
The mere thought of Ian fucking Fairchild sets my teeth on edge. I glance at the back seat. “Trig, since you seem to specialize in deviant ambushes, maybe you could track down his vehicle and add a little sugar to his gas tank.”
“Already on it.”
Good. ’Cause fuck that guy.
I tie on the mask. “I’ll text y’all when I’m ready to leave. Will probably be a few hours. I can’t just lay down twenty grand at one of the poker tables.” It’s the most money I’ve ever had in my life, much less in my hands.
Trig slaps my shoulder. “Remember, no hookers.”
I roll my eyes and get out of Cash’s truck. “If I was the kind of man who slept with hookers, you wouldn’t trust me with this much money or your sister.” I turn to Baylee. “You gonna be okay?”
“Yup! These two are taking me to dinner. We’re meeting up with Mav in a little while.”
I’m sure Vernon would hate everything about tonight’s alliance. The thought makes me grin.
As I head for the mansion, I pray I can pull this off.
Because it’s not every day I need to win a hundred grand.
