CHAPTER
TWENTY-SIX
Mongrel
I know she’s a little nervous because she starts rambling, but hopefully, she’ll calm down once things start heating up.
I may not be a woman, but they don’t own the market on the insecurities that wanna creep in when you’re about to literally bare yourself to a new partner.
You worry if you’re tall enough, do you have areas of your body they don’t find attractive?
What if you’ve been sweating, will they be turned off?
So many ridiculous things go through a person’s mind and in reality, if they’ve got chemistry, none of that matters.
And I know Addy and I are going to be dynamite between the sheets.
Once we’re back at her house and she unlocks the door, I scoop her up while kissing her. At her shocked look, I pull back enough to say, “In my world, an ol’ lady is as revered as a wife. This is our first time together and I want you to know it’s as important to me as it is for you.”
Without putting her down, I manage to lock the door and move to the hallway where I know her bedroom is located.
Walking through the threshold, I see a light on and realize her room suits her.
She’s got a feminine looking headboard, one of those puffy things, in a greenish-gray color, with matching nightstand, a dresser, and a wardrobe.
In one corner, there’s a standing lamp with a chaise lounge that matches the color scheme from her bedroom suite, along with a small table holding a book.
I can visualize her curled up in here reading on a rainy night.
I finally set her on her feet, and she smiles up at me. I can see the shyness there and move to allay her fears. “Addy, I haven’t made a secret about how much I want you. That hasn’t changed at all.”
“I know, honey, and I don’t know why I’m so nervous because I’ve been anticipating this all week, ever since you left,” she admits.
“Well, let’s make our anticipation a reality,” I declare as I pull my shirt over my head.
Once I’m bare-chested, I whisper, “Your turn,” as I gently grab the hem and raise hers.
“Holy shit,” I murmur when I see the deep purple bra covering her full breasts.
Her pulse is jumping in her neck, so I lean in and lightly kiss it as I allow my hands to roam across her chest and torso. “You okay?” I ask.
“I kind of feel like a present must feel on Christmas Day,” she softly says. “But I like it, it makes me feel like I’m precious.”
“Because you are,” I reply, capturing her lips with mine.
We stand there for long minutes kissing and while my dick wants to get to the main event, I want to savor every single second of the night I completely make her mine. I’m still in control, until she unbuttons her pants and lets them slide down her legs.
Seeing her in a matching pair of underwear has me salivating, and the heat we’re generating is enhancing her natural essence. “Your turn,” she teases, her eyes on mine.
I don’t waste any time, crouching and removing her shoes so I can pull her pants completely off, leaving her bare except for those jewel panties.
Seeing a hamper, I toss them in that direction, before I quickly strip the rest of my clothes.
My dick is already weeping in anticipation as I reach down, grab my wallet, and pull out several condoms before tossing them on the bed.
“Eventually, I don’t want anything between us, but until we both get tested, I’d rather be safe than sorry,” I gently tell her.
“I appreciate that. I’m on the implant, and haven’t been active in a very long time, but it’s the adult thing to do,” she replies.
We’re now facing each other, kissing as we learn what the other likes. Her soft sighs have already let me know that her neck, collarbone, and the space between her breasts is an erogenous zone, and when I lean down to take one of her nipples into my mouth, she starts twisting her legs together.
“Ah, ah, ah,” I murmur, my hand plumping the other breast before I switch to give it the same attention with my mouth and tongue. “All will be revealed to she who waits.”
“What if she doesn’t wanna wait?” she asks. “Because I feel like I’m about to explode, honey.”
Smirking, I ease her purple panties down her thighs, exposing the wetness between her legs. “Is all this for me, sweetheart?” I ask.
“Yes, honey, it’s all yours,” she purrs.
“In that case, I need to taste you. Before tonight is over, I want to touch and taste you all over.”
I scoot down the bed, splay her thighs and breathe in deeply. Her scent surrounds me and it’s the headiest aphrodisiac I’ve ever encountered. Leaning in, I swipe my tongue from her pussy to her clit, gently sucking the bundle of nerves until she pulls away slightly. “Too much?”
“On the edge,” she admits, panting. “Not sure I can handle too much without shattering.”
“I want you coming on my dick our first time,” I reply as I reach for a condom package. Opening the foil, I quickly slide the condom down my weeping dick. “We’ll be revisiting that later,” I promise, “but I’ve dreamed of this for weeks.”
Slowly, I slide into her welcoming body. She’s tight, wet, and her pussy is already fluttering, which is not a bad thing because I’m on the edge as well. “It’s okay if it goes fast this first time, Mongrel. We’ve been deep into foreplay these past few days on the phone.”
“You’re right and it’s a good thing because being inside you has me so close I don’t wanna embarrass myself,” I reply.
“Just move, pretty please?” she asks.
I don’t answer, I begin thrusting in and out, leaning down so I can kiss and suck her straining nipples.
When she wraps her thighs around me, I go a little deeper and she moans, sending a shiver of need through me.
Reaching down, I lightly press her clit as I keep powering into her body until she screams my name as her pussy pulsates against my dick, igniting my own release.
I don’t stop moving until her pussy stops pulsing, all the time kissing her face, her lips, and her chest. “Damn, Addy, that was… yeah, that was more than I expected,” I finally gasp out.
Her breathing is no better as she nods her head. “I think I might have seen Jesus,” she says.
I can’t help it, I burst out laughing as I roll us so she’s on top of me, my arms now wrapped around her waist as my hands rub her back and ass. “This is what they had,” I murmur.
“Your parents?” she asks, instinctively knowing where my mind went.
“Yeah, I mean I was never in their room with them, of course, but I was old enough to see the little glances and touches. Occasionally, me and Jonah would hear soft laughter or even moans coming from behind their bedroom door. I told Jonah then that I wanted someone who I could laugh alongside no matter what was happening.”
“Betty told me that sex could be fun, or serious, or even raunchy, depending on the occasion.”
Kissing her, I slip her to the side while holding the condom, so it doesn’t slide off. “Let me take care of this then clean you up,” I say.
“Okay, do you want something to drink?” she asks.
“Water. I think we’re going to need a lot of water tonight.”
“Coming right up.”
By the time we finally fall asleep, sometime around daybreak, both of us are physically wrecked but in the best possible way.
Contentment fills me as I whisper just before sleep claims me, “I’d go through all of it all over again if it led me to you every time. You’re my endgame and my world, Addy.”
Waking up the next morning, I realize the sheets are cool and that Addy is already up. I head into the bathroom, take a much-needed piss, brush my teeth, then slip my boxers on and go in search of my woman.
“What are you doing?” I ask as I see her puttering in the kitchen.
“I got the spaghetti sauce started for tonight’s dinner. And before you say it’s too much, I tend to prep stuff like sauce and meatballs, that kind of thing. So, I’ve got it in the crockpot on low to rewarm it. Do you want breakfast?”
“Wanna go to the diner?” I ask.
“I mean, I can cook, honey, I don’t mind,” she says.
“I know, but you’re going to be busy in a little while, so I’m trying to ease your load,” I tease.
“I am, huh?” she asks.
“Your old man is insatiable where you’re concerned, but unfortunately, we used the last of the condoms I brought earlier this morning, so I figured while we were out, I could grab some more.”
“Oh, okay. Um, let me go get cleaned up,” she says, moving toward the bedroom.
I stop her and tilt her chin up. “You okay, sweetheart? You seem a little off this morning.”
“Everything was so perfect last night and I’m about to blow it all to smithereens this morning,” she replies.
“How?”
“Because I feel like you’re going to tell me just to throw on some clothes, brush my hair, and we can go, but I can’t do that, honey. I have to take a shower, and at some point, that’s gonna bother you.”
Scooping her up in my arms, I start striding toward her room while she squeals. “Good thing I don’t mind helping you get squeaky clean.”
“Unicorn, you’re a damn unicorn,” she says over breakfast. True to my word, I helped her shower once she put her hair in a shower cap, but I used my fingers and tongue to make her come again.
I’d have made love to her, but I made a promise and I will honor it, even though my dick hates me right now.
“Naw, just a man who finally has everything he ever dreamed of,” I reply. “There will be some who say it’s too soon to tell you this, but I don’t care what others think. I love you, Addison, and will spend the rest of our lives together showing you just how much.”
She’s about to say something in return when we hear, “Miss Addy! Mr. Mongrel!” and turn to see JB charging our way, a little boy the same height as him following alongside.
“Hey, JB!” Addy exclaims. “This is a wonderful surprise!”
“This is Liam, he’s going to be my brother, we’re best friends!” JB states. “This is Papa Wayne, he’s going to adopt me, isn’t that awesome?”
“It sure is, buddy,” I reply as Addy appears overcome with emotion. Looking at the man standing behind the boys, I ask, “Do you have a date for the adoption yet? He was my physical therapy buddy, so I’d love to come and help him celebrate, and so would Addy. If you don’t mind, that is.”
“Don’t mind at all,” Wayne replies. “It’s just the three of us, so the more the merrier, although if these two have their way, half the town will be there.”
I grin then shrug. “The joy of boys. My brother and I are about eleven months apart, and I remember some of the things we used to get into.”
“I’m looking forward to it,” he says. He’s smiling, but I can see the sadness in his eyes and remember I heard from somewhere he was a widower who relocated to our town.
“Well, once it’s all official, you need to reach out to the Triple R Ranch and ask for me. I’ll have y’all out as my guests during one of our family days so the boys can meet the horses and see how a ranch works,” I state, seeing that all three are wearing Stetson hats.
“I’d like to see how their operation works. I had one up north, but when everything happened, well, I had to let it go. But I miss working with the livestock.”
“Hell, if you’re looking for work, call up there and speak with Rio Ramirez, he’s the owner. I know he’s always looking for good hands,” I say.
“I’ll do that. C’mon, boys, let’s let these two finish their breakfast in peace,” he says to JB and Liam.
Once they’re seated at the other side of the restaurant, Addy looks at me and says, “He’s like night and day from when I first met him. I’m so happy he’s going to have a good family.”
“Me, too, sweetheart. Me, too.” Seeing she’s finished, I ask, “You ready to go back to your place? I think we could both do with a little nap before our family descends.” She nods so I toss sufficient cash for our bill and a tip on the table, then take her hand in mine and lead her to my truck.
Before I close the door, she leans toward me and whispers, “As long as you’re still planning to make the stop we discussed earlier.”
I’m grinning as I go around the truck to get in the driver’s side. Being with Addy is going to be the best adventure of my life and like I told her last night, even though she was asleep when I said it, she’s it for me. As Randy Travis sings, Forever and ever, amen.
