CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE
TEXAS
A squeal escaped Maya when I took her in my arms and flipped her around before bending to pick her up over my shoulder. I strode down the hall and into my bedroom with a laughing woman. Her humour died when I entered the bathroom, helped her stand, and pulled my tee over my head.
“Undress, gorgeous,” I ordered and moved over to turn on the shower. Adjusting the water, I glanced over my shoulder to see Maya slipping her jeans and panties down her legs. She straightened, only wearing her black top, and I couldn’t help but think she’d look fucking spectacular in nothing but one of my tees.
Scraping my top teeth over my bottom lip, I shifted back to fix the water temp one last time as my cock throbbed hard. I sucked in a sharp breath when the soft heat of Maya’s tits pushed into my back as she wrapped her arms around my waist. My dick damn near fought to get out of my jeans.
She pressed a kiss between my shoulder blades.
“Step back, babe,” I said, gruffer than usual, but shit, the desire for my woman was pumping through me. When she did, I faced her fully, taking her in. She was goddamn stunning. I quickly undid my jeans, pushed them and my boxers down while I kicked off my shoes, and then took off my socks. My cock ached, hard and ready.
Finally naked, I picked my woman up and walked us under the spray of water, taking her mouth in a hard kiss she opened up to right away.
As I ran my mouth down her neck, I felt her tiny laugh and lifted my face. “What?”
“I could get used to showers with you.”
Grinning, I grunted and tipped my chin up. “Good. Now let me get my hands on your hair to wash it.”
“You want to wash my hair?”
“Babe. I fuckin’ love your hair, so yeah, I wanna wash it.”
My heart expanded when I saw the warmth in her eyes. She nodded and turned, taking the shampoo from its holder and passing it back to me. After I shampooed and conditioned hers, I quickly washed mine, since all it needed was a shampoo.
I brushed the water from my eyes and opened them to see Maya’s wide ones. “You only shampoo?”
“Yeah. It’s all it needs.”
“But I’ve felt your hair. It’s always soft.”
“I know.”
“Are you saying you only shampoo and it’s always that soft?”
Chuckling, I nodded. “Yeah.”
She planted her hands on her hips, glaring. “You lucky SOB.”
I swiped water from my face again and grinned. “Are you gettin’ pissed ’cause I only have to use shampoo?”
“Yes! You don’t know what a pain it is taking care of this”—she waved to her head—“to keep it nice and soft. After this shower, I’ll have to put leave-in conditioner in it, and I’ll still have to use some type of product in the morning.”
“Babe,” I started, tugging her close with my arm around her waist. “You really want to talk about hair, or you wanna put your hands on the wall so I can play with your pussy?”
Her gaze went hazy. “Oh… um, option two, please.”
Smirking, I shook my head, wanting to laugh. “All right, then do it.”
When she didn’t move at first, I helped her by planting my hands on her waist and turning her. Her breaths became little pants when I ran my hands from her waist to her wrists so I could lift her arms. When she slapped her hands onto the tiles, I brushed her hair from one shoulder to kiss her there.
“My Maya, beautiful, sweet, and willin’ to please her man.” She shivered from my words spoken close to her ear. I sucked her lobe into my mouth while gliding a hand down her back to her arse.
“Texas,” she whimpered.
“Soon, gorgeous,” I told her, rubbing my hard-as-fuck cock into her hip.
She gasped when I slapped her arse cheek hard. Her head dropped back, eyes closed, mouth open. I rubbed over the sting while I wrapped my other hand around her neck and lightly tightened my hold. Her eyes flashed open, but I didn’t see concern. I saw pure fucking arousal.
I gripped her throat harder and slapped her arse again. She choked out a moan.
“Fuck, babe. You’re so good for me. You liked that, didn’t you?”
I squeezed her neck once again. Her face turned red, and when I let go, she heaved her breaths in and out.
“Yes.”
“Yes what, Maya?”
“I liked it.”
Christ, I was giving her all I enjoyed, and she got off on it. She seriously was made for me.
“Hell, babe. Bet you’re drenched for me.” I removed my hand from her neck and cupped it over her pussy. “So soaked, it’s leakin’ from you.”
She whimpered, dropping her head and trying to rock down on my hand.
“Not yet, gorgeous.”
“Texas,” she complained. “Please,” she begged.
Fuck yes.
“Turn. Press your back to the tiles,” I ordered.
She did, letting out a gasp at the coolness touching her flushed skin. She licked her lips, looking up at me.
Goddamn stunning.
My cock throbbed, fucking ached at the sight of her. The way her chest rose and fell rapidly, pushing her tits up and down. Bending, I licked at her left nipple but kept my eyes on her. Watching when her lips parted. Her pupils widened as I bit and sucked.
I ran my hands down her sides, over her hips, and slipped one between her legs where I had her spread them more. I straightened to cover her throat again with my large, tatted hand while using the other to shove two fingers inside her. She went onto her toes and cried my name. I curled the fingers up and rubbed as I applied pressure to her neck.
“Texas,” she breathed, slamming her eyes closed, biting her bottom lip and whimpering as I fucked her with my fingers and pressed my thumb to her clit.
“That’s it, babe. Fuck, you look beautiful… full with my fingers and red from my hand.” I let go of her neck, and she gasped her breaths. I kissed her hard, and she moaned into my mouth.
Pushing my fingers deeper, I trailed kisses down her neck, over her shoulder, and when I got to the top of her tit, I bit down. She cried out. The squelching from her drenched-as-fuck pussy had my dick throbbing over and over. I knew it wouldn’t take me long to come, but I wouldn’t until I’d taken care of my woman.
I kissed my way back up while finger-fucking her to the point that her legs started to shake.
“Texas, God, please.”
“Right here, babe. Christ, you feel good. So wet, so tight, and now marked by me. Gonna mark you more. Gonna come all over you, rub it into your skin. Make you mine.”
Her hand tightened around my arm. She gasped, closing her eyes, and I nipped at her bottom lip.
“Texas,” she yelled before I kissed her through her orgasm.
Her body shook, and if I thought she was wet before, it was nothing like the gush she’d produced at climax.
Hell, it was the hottest thing I’d seen and felt.
When she’d come down, I withdrew my fingers and wrapped my hand around my cock. I used my other hand to cup the back of her head and tilt it down. “Watch me come on you, Maya. Fuckin’ watch what you do to me. I ain’t gonna last. You drive me wild, babe.”
Her arm curled around my waist as I tucked her close and eyed her as she looked at my hand pumping my dick fast.
“Christ,” I grunted through clenched teeth, exploding my load over her gut, pussy, and legs. When I kept coming, I buried my face into her neck, groaning through it, and finally slumping when I was spent.
It was later, after we’d dried off and eaten dinner, that we sat on the couch to watch some TV, and I pulled Maya from beside me onto my lap.
“Wanna make sure, babe, that you’re cool with your decision about work?”
She smiled, tucking herself close, but facing me more. “I am. Completely. I don’t know what I’ll do for work, but for right now, it’s not being a paramedic.”
“Glad you got that sorted in your head, gorgeous. I can help with the job if you want.”
She laughed. “What, are you going to give me one? Not sure I can tattoo as good as you, baby.”
Smirking, I shook my head. “You’re forgettin’ Mon’s gonna have her own room soon, and I’ll need a girl out front.”
She stilled, gaze widening. “I can’t work for you.”
I jerked my head back. “Why the fuck not?”
“We’re together.”
“And?”
“I can’t sleep with the boss.”
Christ. I dropped my head back and laughed my arse off. I pulled her close, or at least tried to, but she pushed at my chest.
“Quit laughing.”
“No, babe, that shit was funny.”
“How?”
“You can’t be serious about not taking the job because I’d be your boss and we’re together.”
“Um, yeah. People will think I’m abusing the relationship and falling into an easy job.”
I gave her a squeeze. “Quiet,” I clipped. “I don’t give a fuck what people think. You reckon you could do the job?”
She licked her lips, glanced away and back again. “Well, yes.”
“Then the job’s yours. I’ve interviewed a fuckin’ billion people, and none of them fit. You do, and Christ, it’s a bonus that I get to see you whenever the fuck I want.”
“But what happens if spending too much time together ruins us?”
“It won’t.”
“Texas, I’m serious.”
“Right, if you think it’s too much, we’ll talk it out when the time comes.”
“Oh, um, okay.”
“So, you gonna take the job?”
“Yes… I think so. But if I do, I won’t stay here all the time. We’ll need some time away from each other or I’ll drive you insane. Then again, you could send me over the edge too.”
“Babe,” I bit out. “Do your ’rents take timeouts? I know Dodge and Low don’t, and they work and live together.”
“They’re married, Texas.”
I lifted her so she straddled my lap. “And this between us, where’s it goin’? Are you only with me for a short time?”
“No, but—”
“Don’t want to hear any buts, Maya. Let’s ride this out together and see how it goes. If you need a night away, go to your ’rents. If you don’t, stay here.”
“You’ll tell me if you need time alone?”
“I won’t want time alone, but fine.”
“Texas,” she whispered, getting in my face and cupping my cheeks. Hell, I wanted to laugh, but I didn’t. “We’ve only started dating and you’re talking about… well, it sounds a lot like me just living with you.”
I thought about it for a second and realised it really did.
Then I shrugged. “So?”
She groaned, dropping her hands from my face to thump her forehead on my shoulder near my neck. “You’re insane.”
“Don’t believe I am, babe. How about we just take each day as it comes? Like I said, if you stay here the night after working with me all day, it’d be good. If you don’t, I’ll still see you at work.” However, I had a very strong feeling she would be in my bed each and every night. There was a high chance I’d drag her there.
She’d eventually understand that I’d got her words clearly when she told me she’d been into me since she was sixteen. I didn’t care if I was late into the play and only been in love with her for over half a year.
All that mattered was that she was mine and I was hers.
I rocked my legs up, jostling her. “Yeah, Maya?”
She lifted her head and drew in an unsteady breath, but she nodded, and my fucking heart swelled when she said, “Okay, Texas.”
Grinning, I cupped the side of her neck. “Good. Now, I gotta check on somethin’ else.” She looked wary but waited me out. “I need to make sure you enjoyed our play in the shower. Don’t want you thinkin’ I was too rough with you or anythin’.”
Her cheeks burned with a blush. “Texas.” She shook her head.
“Need to know, babe.”
Sighing, she looked away and said, “I liked it. Um…” She licked her lips and the blush spread. “You weren’t too rough. You could, ah, go further.”
Fucking shit.
My spent cock tried to perk up.
I threaded my fingers through her hair and pulled her close. “Glad to know, babe. We’ll definitely fuckin’ explore that.”
“Okay,” she breathed against my lips before I took her mouth in a hungry kiss.
