14. Focus On Us
Olivia moaned as she stirred on the couch, she’d been dreaming about one of the nights her mom had stayed up late to brush her hair.
“Mom. I keep making the wrong decisions. I keep hurting everyone. I don’t want to let anyone close,” she said, her eyes meeting her mother’s green ones in the mirror.
Her mother smiled at her softly before bending down to give her a soft kiss on her cheek. She met her eyes in the mirror.“You know what to do my sweet girl, just look deep inside,” her mom whispered, placing her hand over Olivia”s heart. “I love you Ollie, and never forget I am so proud of you.”
Olivia awakened with a gasp.
Her chest was heaving as she struggled out of sleep. She looked around, seeing she was in a beautiful living room, and smelling her mom’s chicken noodle soup. She got up, clutching the blanket around herself and turned in a circle, taking in the beautiful dark tones of the wood and moody paint of the living room she was in. The fireplace glowed with fake candles as it was the middle of summer, not appropriate for a fire.
Picking up on more details, she noticed the television was off, helping to blanket the room in silence, and as she turned, she saw a great big shaggy golden retriever lounging close to where she was laying. Her jaw dropped and the dogs’ ears perked up as it saw she had her attention. Leaning forward, she looked at the collar, seeing the dog’s name engraved as Shadow.
Go figure,Olivia thought wryly, thinking about how Vanessa’s favorite childhood movie was Homeward Bound.
She looked around for any more animals and saw a gray cat staring back at her from its perch on a library shelf. Giving the friendly dog a little pat, she’d turned and followed her nose to the massive kitchen. Colin, Jonathan and Allison were crowded around the center marble island and tearing apart biscuits from a massive pile of dough. Instrumental music was playing on the surround sound and Vanessa was stirring a big pot of soup at a huge gas stove.
Clasping her hands together nervously, Olivia hesitated before walking into the kitchen, staying safely in the shadows of the little hallway she was in. She was embarrassed that she broke down so badly in the driveway and wasn’t sure if she wanted to join them.
Jonathan spotted her first, as Colin was helping Allison tear her ball of dough in half to make it more manageable.
“Come on Ukhat, join us,” he said, taking a drink of his whiskey and turning to grab a wine glass from an overhead cabinet, pouring her some from the half-drunk bottle of wine next to them. Colin turned from Allison and gave her a rather interesting onceover before his eyes landed on hers. He stepped off his stool and sauntered towards her lazily, his pants gripping his hips, and she swallowed down the rush of desire at the sight of his dick print through the material of the sweats.
Colin came up to her and pressed her deeper into the hallway, hiding them from the others in the kitchen. He wrapped his arms around her and pressed himself close. He smelled of soap like he’d had a shower and his hair was slightly damp as she sank her fingers in to feel. He leaned his head down and pressed his lips softly against hers. Their tongues danced and tangled for a while before he pulled back, his warm eyes searching hers.
“Are you ok baby?” he breathed, his eyes flickering between hers, showing nothing but concern. Olivia swallowed, seeing the mean sadistic Colin seemed to be firmly stowed away for the moment.
“Yes,” Olivia whispered. “I’m embarrassed you all had to see me like that. I’m so sorry Colin,” she said again, closing her eyes and resting her forehead on his chest.
”Baby it”s okay. Let’s enjoy your sister’s chicken and dumplings.” Colin’s hand came up to stroke her cheek. “I have missed you like crazy. I hope you got enough rest because you aren’t sleeping tonight. And no, before you even fix that smart ass mouth to say anything, fucking you in your bungalow and on the plane wasn’t enough,” he said, his hands trailing down her body to cup her ass and pull her up to him.
Olivia made a small sound as her pussy heated.“Colin! I don’t have any panties on!” she gasped, not wanting to make a mess on her legs.
“I know,” he growled as he bent down and nuzzled into her neck, sucking and pulling at the skin, making her squeal slightly and try to recoil, giggling.
“There,” he said, pulling away, his own eyes sparkling. “That’s what I want to hear right now anyway. Later might be another story,” he warned as he turned and patted her ass to walk into the kitchen.
Allison was sitting in Jonathan’s lap and trying to convince him why they needed an extra huge biscuit. Hence, why she kept tearing off too much.
“But daddy, Shadow needs a biscuit!” she said, whipping her head around to look at him.
“Peanut, Shadow is a dog and shouldn’t have flour. How about we make him a special treat since you love him so much?” Jonathan said, standing up with Allison in his arms. They walked over to the fridge, coming back with a piece of meat wrapped in white butcher paper.
Olivia clocked the price, seeing it was a forty-dollar lamb chop. Her mouth fell open. “Jonathan! You’re not?” she said, a hilarious giggle erupting from her as the man began to unwrap the paper before reaching above them and grabbing a skillet hanging from a rack. He took it to one of the many burners and turned one on, setting the skillet on the fire.
”I definitely am,” Jonathan replied confidently with a shit-eating grin on his face.
“Bro, I hope to be as rich as you one day,” Colin teased, as Jonathan instructed Allison to pour a dollop of oil in the skillet.
“What? The girl wants Shadow to eat good, so eat good Shadow shall,” Jonathan said happily, grinning down into the little girls’ eyes and bopping her gently on the nose. Vanessa looked at them together and smiled, dropping the biscuits into the soup.
They watched in comfortable silence as Jonathan put the chop in the skillet and cooked it to rare, before setting it on a butcher block to rest. Colin and Jonathan discussed work a bit, as they were behind on some things. Olivia took the time to observe Allison. She looked healthy. Her cheeks were glowing, and her body was filling out like a five-year-old little girl’s should. She watched as she clambered onto a stool with her trusty pink bunny in her arm. Observing that its ears had been sewed back on, the black thread peeking out against the pink felt of the bunny’s fabric. She blinked back tears; it was only fourteen weeks that she was gone but it might as well have been a lifetime.
“Now,” Colin said, reaching for a knife and sliding the chop closer to him. He began slicing the steak in even cuts, the knife going through the meat easily. “What do we say?” he said in a practiced tone as he picked up a piece of steak and handed it to Allison. She scrunched her nose up at the rare meat.
“Never feed a dog anything that you wouldn’t eat yourself,” she parroted back. It seemed to be a thing between the two of them. Which would explain why she was trying to make the dog the world’s biggest biscuit.Allison bravely took the steak from him and put it into her mouth, her bright green eyes lighting up at the flavor. Olivia watched as he snagged a rare piece for himself, popping it into his mouth and smiling at Allison.
“Yum!” Allison said, smacking her lips and hopping off the stool. She disappeared for a minute and came back with a silver dog bowl. Putting the bowl on the counter gently, she proceeded to dump all the meat into it and then went to the refrigerator.
Olivia watched quietly as she yanked a shelf open harshly, pulling out some pre-cut sweet potato and dumping it in there with the steak before disappearing again and yelling for Shadow. “Holy shit,” Olivia breathed.
Vanessa smiled at her, putting a bowl of steaming hot chicken and dumplings in front of her.“She’s quite the capable little girl,” Vanessa quipped, sharing a brief look with Colin before sliding him his bowl. Jonathan reached over Vanessa with a bowl, placing it in front of her at the island with a spoon before placing his hands on her belly and rubbing, placing his lips to her neck.
“So,” Olivia broke the silence. “There’s no kibble and bits in the house, huh?” she smiled as everyone broke out into laughter.
“Nope,” Jonathan chuckled, turning to grab his own bowl.
“Jesus Nessie, this is delicious,” Colin remarked, licking his spoon.
“Thanks,” Vanessa said before piercing Olivia with a look. “So, why Macau, China?” she inquired, staring her down with her cat-like eyes. Everyone went quiet, Colin and Jonathan both pausing in eating to look at her.
Olivia swallowed hard, her eyes dropping down to her bowl in shame. “Do we have to talk about this right now, Nessie?”
“Uhm yeahhh,”Vanessa scoffed as her eyes met Colin’s for a second. “I think we do. You at least owe us that,” Vanessa said calmly, keeping her eyes trained on Olivia. “You have no clue what the hell we dealt with these weeks you’ve been gone so, I think you can at least give us the courtesy of answering a simple question.”
Olivia took a deep breath before looking up, pointedly ignoring Colin’s stare. She knew the conversation that was going to be had with him once they were alone was going to be a much different one.
“Because that was Gypsy’s contingent plan for all the girls in the underground ring, if anything were to go wrong. Everything was already set in place,” she said simply, her eyes falling back to her bowl. Ignoring their silence, she ate the last bite and then picked the bowl up and brought it to the sink, washing it quietly. She missed the look the three of them gave each other. However, she noted their continued silence from behind her and couldn”t blame them for their reaction.
She turned. ”I don”t want to be the only one getting ripped into. I may have reacted badly, and I am so sorry for how this made you all feel, but I was lied to about something I consider being incredibly serious. While you all are over there being perfect and judging me for it.”
Jonathan spoke up. ”No one is blaming you for feeling the way you feel Ollie. But next time, come to us. Don”t just take off. You have a family that loves you, you don”t have to do it by yourself anymore. We would have been more than happy to bring you into our home if needed. Don”t ever think you don”t have a place here.”
Olivia met Jonathan”s stare silently before nodding, wrapping her arms around herself. She flicked her eyes to Colin, who was watching her with an unreadable expression, and his demeanor was way calmer than she expected. It hit her then that he wasn”t worried about her leaving. He wouldn”t be letting her.
“Are y’all up for a movie after dinner?” Vanessa said, breaking the quiet as she spooned a rather alarming amount of food into her mouth, making her cheeks puff out. Jonathan chuckled at the sight.
“What movie do you have in mind?” Colin asked, slightly more animated than he had been. Olivia smiled shyly, happy to be around her family for the first time in weeks.
“Get Him to The Greek!” Vanessa said through a mouthful of biscuits.
The night went on and they put Allison to bed before joining them in the lounge and watching the movie. The couples relaxed against each other. Olivia and Colin were snuggled under a blanket, her ear was pressed against his chest, and she sighed contently for the first time in weeks as she found herself listening to the soothing sound of his heartbeat more than the movie.
“Hey you two, I’m going to get her to bed. She’s passed out,” Jonathan said quietly, referring to Vanessa who was snoring softly in his arms. “Colin, you know where your guys’ room is. I’ll leave you to it. Goodnight.” Colin nodded and took the remote from him before he got up with Vanessa in his arms and carried her away.
Olivia placed her head back on his chest and snuggled deeper, sighing.
She tensed as Colin suddenly turned the movie off and put on a sensual playlist. He ran his hands up her body, dragging her dress up and caressing her bare ass under the blanket.
“We’re sleeping here,” he said, his voice coming out hoarse. “We’ll go home tomorrow. I just thought you’d like to be close to them tonight.”
Olivia”s head tilted up to find his eyes. She gasped as he suddenly turned her to lay flush against him. She was hyper aware of his erection pressing against her stomach.
“We’re ok, love. We’re going to be ok. I’m sorry about my outburst on the plane,” Colin said, his chocolate eyes searching hers for understanding.
She looked away and licked her lips before responding.
“Colin, I’m sorry. I’ve not consulted you on how you’ve truly felt in this scenario. I’m sorry for judging you, baby. I caused a lot of hurt by responding to something without all the full facts. I turned everyone’s lives upside down, and you did such an amazing job doing damage control while I’m sure you were worried sick about me.” She paused as her voice caught in her throat and she lowered her forehead against his chest. She let out a small, pained noise, feeling her body temperature rise with embarrassment and sadness. “I’m so, so sorry. I was so stupid. You treated me so well… and I couldn’t even give you the courtesy of explaining yourself b-be-because,” Olivia choked on a sob, unable to finish her sentence as she shuddered hard, her body racked with tears. “I don’t think I deserve it, but can you forgive me?” she asked, her eyes welling up with tears that overflowed easily onto his chest. “I don’t deserve you,” she cried out again, her voice catching on another sob.
Her fingers clutched desperately against his ribcage and she dug her nails in deep, trying to sink into him.
“I’m such a fuck up, Colin. I don’t even know why you want me still,” she whispered, echoing her thoughts that she”d shared with Jonathan on the plane.
She heard his chest rumble before his hands banded around her arms and hauled her up his body.
“I don’t want to ever hear you say that again,” he said, his eyes flashing dangerously as his fingers searched along the bottom curve of her right butt cheek. She cried out as he pinched the flesh there harshly.“What do you say?” he growled, pinching harder.
Olivia gasped and squirmed, feeling tears of desire flood her eyes. Her nipples hardened, and she became even more slick in between her thighs.
“Yes sir,” Olivia moaned as he took his other hand and fisted it into her hair, lowering her head to his. She moaned as his lips pressed into hers, parting them as his tongue swept in reverently. Almost worshipfully. He pulled away reluctantly, placing a hand on the back of her head. He took a second to look into her eyes and spoke.
“I am not too prideful to admit when I am in the wrong as well. Yes, some might argue that you had a gross overreaction when you left the way you did but, I know how hard I worked to earn your trust,” he paused, sadness and regret filled his eyes. “And I should have told you sooner. Much sooner than I did. I was worried too, because deep down inside I knew you were going to react the way you did.” He swooped his thumb over her bottom lip that she’d pulled in between her teeth. “I waited too late, because I was scared. I should have told you about my past before we married. And for that I am sorry, I will never lie to you like that again, amor. That is a promise.”
Olivia sniffled, wiping her tears away, giving him a tentative smile.
“And, in the thread of honesty, part of the reason I am so hurt and couldn”t address this the way I should have is because my father is still alive out there somewhere. And that bothers me a lot more than it should…because despite how badly he hurt me, I miss him so much. I think about him all the time,” Colin admitted on a deep breath, dropping his head back against the sofa as he closed his eyes against the pain of the admission.
Olivia’s eyes widened, and she tilted her head forward, kissing him under his chin.“I think everything’s going to be okay, baby, I’ll support you in whatever you want to do. If you want to find him…if you just want to leave him be…whatever it is you want, I’ll be right by your side. No more running, ever. No matter how hard it gets. We’ll just have to incinerate each other and complain about it later,” she said as Colin tilted his head back down on a laugh, catching her lips with a harsh kiss.
“What would make you feel better, baby?” he asked quietly, pulling back and assessing her facial features. Olivia remained quiet, however, trepidation filled her eyes.He licked his lips and pressed. “Would you feel better if I punished you?” his heart skipped a beat at the heat that entered her eyes, chasing away the trepidation. He winced as the razor-sharp edge of desire shot its way through his body and he burned from the top of his head to his feet at just how visible the shift within her was.
Tilting his head forward on a groan, Colin swallowed her shocked gasp at his question, and he’d moved his hand to between her legs and grasped her clit.
“Fucking God. You’re swollen, amor,” he growled into her mouth as he flicked her clit steadily, not giving her a reprieve. She moaned into his mouth as he worked her flesh steadily, flinching as he applied more pressure instead of easing up.
“Colin, I need you! I missed you so much… you talking to me, loving me, touching me. It was so hard to be without you. I cried every night,” she whimpered against his lips, feeling his hand move from her nape to yank her dress over her head, exposing her bra. He undid the clasp one handed and freed her from its confines, enjoying the sensation of her breasts settling heavily against his chest, their weight welcome.
“Oh, don’t worry, I’m taking my time with you tonight. I’ve already ordered Jonathan and Vanessa a new mattress. We owe them one for the damage they did to our bedroom when they first stayed over. It’s our turn now. You’re not sleeping tonight,” he said hotly, his eyes boring into hers as he reached lower and speared her with two fingers. Her moan intensified as he pressed all the way in to his knuckle and then pressed even harder, giving her hard thrusts that sounded wet between them. He was content to look into her eyes as she struggled to not freefall into the abyss so quickly.
“I’m just going to warn you, I’m not going to go easy on you when we’re home alone. Just so you aren’t thinking my leashed temper is something permanent. I don’t want you to delude yourself,” he said harshly.
Olivia gasped as he hauled her up his body, and caught her gaze just as he took her erect nipple into his mouth. She yelped as she suddenly squirted on his fingers and her mouth opened in embarrassment.
“Oh god, I’m so sorry,” she whispered, feeling her face flame as he pulled back from her breasts.
“Did you not hear anything I just said? You’re getting ready to flood their mattress, baby. I’m going to be wringing you out all night,” she squealed in shock as he suddenly picked her up in his arms. She wrapped her legs around him as he carried her down a hallway in the opposite direction from the main bedrooms. He walked through the door, turning the lock and pressing her roughly against it.
“You remember the first time I gave you an orgasm?” he asked, his eyes on hers hotly. Blushing, she nodded, remembering very clearly.
“Yes. I tried to orgasm so many times after that, that I broke my vibrator. I couldn’t orgasm, you had me so fucked up in the head even then that I couldn’t get off without you,” she whispered, sinking her fingers into his hair and gasping as he suddenly yanked his sweats down and she felt the broad head of his big penis notching itself into her opening.
“I remember your pretty green dress. When you lowered your sleeves and exposed the tops of your breasts, I almost came right then and there,” he said, bending forward and grazing his tongue from her collar bone to her other nipple. He paused. “And when your nipple broke free from your bra, I knew I couldn’t fuck you even if you invited me in because I knew I was going to absolutely break this sweet cunt. It was just too good, beautiful,” he whispered, listening to her excited cry as he bit into her nipple at the same time he thrust her down onto him. She sucked in a breath and orgasmed in shock around his thick length.
“Colin!” she screamed wildly, clutching at him. “It’s so big! It’s too b-big!” she yelped brokenly. She sucked air through her teeth at the feel of his hands tightening on her hips, making her body bob up and down harshly with his movements.
Her hips beat against the door as he sucked her nipple and thrust into her harshly, ignoring her sharp cries.
“It doesn’t matter,” he growled as he beat against her steadily. “No one can hear you scream on this side of the house, and we’ve got all night beautiful.”
Olivia’s eyes widened as she saw his tattooed arms flexing heavily as he yanked and pushed her on and off him. She hooked her heels behind him and sank her fingers into his hair as she felt sweat break out over her body. She threw her head back and cried out again as he pulled her down tight against him and ground incredibly deep, circling his hips lewdly.
“Unhook your legs,” he said darkly, tilting his head to stare into her eyes as his hips began circling deep again. “Unhook your legs and hold them wide open for me, Olivia. I control this, not you.”
She swallowed hard, unhooking her heels like he instructed and immediately feeling too exposed as she spread her legs wide for him, bending her knees up and out like he liked.
“Yessss,”he growled deep in his chest, and she bit her lip at the first wet slap of them joining together, betraying she was extremely swollen and wet. “You hear that?” he said as he thrust again, listening to her whimper in her throat.
“Colin, it hurrrts,” she said, gasping as he circled his hips again before bending his knees slightly and lowering her further down the door. The pleasure was sharp, cutting through her like a knife and leaving her flayed open for him.
Colin’s heart skipped a beat at her admission. “Good,” he quipped as he pulled back all the way out and then slammed back in on a snarl. She squealed, trying to recoil as he set a steady slow tempo for long, almost unbearable minutes. He stopped, hearing a muted splash between them.
She’d just squirted on the floor.
“Hard and slow. You remember what you told me?” Colin asked, as he pulled his back and repeated the harsh movement, drawing a groan from her. Her fingers clawed as she pushed against him with her forearms, completely overwhelmed.“That’s a new sound. It’s beautiful. Just like you, my pretty girl,” Colin groaned as he spent long minutes thrusting into her body.
Only when she was shaking and dripping down to the floor between their legs did Colin move suddenly, taking them to the ensuite bathroom and grabbing a couple towels. He threw one over his shoulder before walking with her still wrapped around him and him deeply embedded in her. He tossed the other towel on the floor to clean up the mess that dripped onto the floor. Shy, she buried her head into his neck while he pulled the bedsheets back and leaned over, placing her onto the bed and the towel he’d spread out.He pulled her face from his neck.
“All night Olivia. I’m wearing this pussy out. And when your pussy’s done, I’ll take your mouth, then your ass,” he said darkly, as he crawled down her body and settled between her legs, ignoring her sharp cry as he suddenly jammed three fingers into her pussy, twisting and pressing hard as he settled his teeth onto her clit.
“Nooo!Colin it’s been weeks. I can’t,” she cried as she climaxed yet again, grinding her teeth together against the bone-shattering pleasure he was giving her.
“No isn’t a word in our vocabulary tonight. I’m going to show you just how much I missed you. Get comfortable baby,” Colin murmured. He ignored her fresh screams, feeling her body seize up. Relaxing into the mattress, he got good and comfortable, just like he advised her to do.
God she tastes amazing.
***
Olivia moaned as she woke up the next day, looking at the clock and seeing it was almost noon. She placed a hand over her eyes and rubbed, slightly disoriented. The memories of the night came back in a flood. She immediately blushed, hoping Colin wasn’t there to see her in the light of day after all that transpired between them last night. She peeked through her fingers at her side of the bed and bit her lip. No such luck.
Colin was sitting up in bed next to her, holding a cup of coffee and watching her wake up. A rather peaceful yet amused look on his face. She closed her fingers, cutting herself off from him.
“Oh my God, please don’t look at me,” she whispered, as the sensations started settling in. She moaned again, feeling completely worn out.
“Would you like a bath, amor?” Colin spoke in a sex roughened voice. The sound gave her a sick pleasure because she didn’t want to be the only one who looked like they’d been absolutely ran through last night.
“Yes please,” she said softly, her hand falling from her face as she felt her body elongate into a satisfying stretch. She collapsed back into the bed with a huff and got a good look at her surroundings for the first time. Unlike the rest of the house she’d seen so far with its wooden features, and moody painting and murals, this room was decorated in light creams and blues. It was beautiful and lush without being too princess looking.
He leaned forward and kissed her softly on the forehead before rolling out of bed naked and disappearing into an adjoining room. She heard a bath start and took the time to try and sit up, wincing against the lightheaded feeling. She shot an arm out, blindly grabbing for her phone until she found it.
”Can you die by being fucked to death?” Olivia put into the search engine of her cell phone, starting to worry because it didn’t look like Colin was going to let up. She scrolled through all the ER horror stories, and some funny ones, seeing that there really was nothing wrong as long as she got her rest and got sustenance. Which Colin made sure she got.
She pulled up her texts.
How much sex do y’all have? Sorry to ask but I’m trying to see something. -O
A lot. Soooo… you’re about to do the walk of shame in a bit I’m sensing? -Nessie
Not sure I can walk yet. I think we ruined your mattress, I’m sorry. Colin said he’d already ordered another one though. -O
Olivia sent her a blushing emoji face.
Right on cue, Colin appeared through the doorway, still naked as he walked up to her.
Olivia”s eyes widened and she recoiled, trying to roll away from him. “No leave me alone you fiend!” she gasped, clawing at the sheets as he grabbed her foot and dragged her easily across the bed towards him. Her face flushed as he leaned down and wrapped his arms around her chuckling, picking her up and walking with her to the bathroom and lowering her in the tub. She groaned with pleasure, sinking deeper and sighing. Colin got in behind her and hauled her up into him, settling her comfortably against his chest.
He pulled her hair to the side and kissed her neck, inhaling and sighing on a groan. “You smell like rough sex,” he whispered into her ear, licking the shell. “How do you feel?”
She hummed in her throat, grateful he couldn’t see her face.
“Turned slightly inside out,” she said. She ran her hands down his thighs, feeling the crisp hair and hard muscles underneath. She relaxed as he took a huge natural sponge and began to wring water all over her shoulders, one hand rubbing circles onto her belly.
Like music to my ears,he thought as a sharp flash of pleasure raced through his body at her words.
“You’re probably going to feel like that for a few weeks,” Colin said unapologetically, his hand moving up to grasp her breasts. “I have a plan B pill for you, and then we need to get you back on the pill. We don’t want any accidents that will prevent me from ravaging this body the way I need to for at least the next year and a half.”
Olivia moaned as he took a sensitive nipple between his forefinger and thumb and rolled. She took pleasure in the fact that he wanted her body to himself for a while. She’d felt unsettled since their conversation months ago at the dinner table regarding children and realized that maybe part of that was the catalyst to her fear; she had so many unknowns with this man. She tilted her head harder against shoulder, realizing that yes, underneath his hard demeanor and his harsh ways with her, he’d taken to Allison very well and he was protective, kind, and gentle with her.
“You’re going to have my babies, Olivia,” he rasped in her ear. His other hand tilted her head to the side so he could meet her eyes. She whimpered as he tightened his fingers on her harder. Removing his fingers from her jaw, he lowered his mouth to hers at the same time he lowered his hand and cupped her pussy possessively. He swallowed her moans as he licked, sucked, and molded his mouth to hers.
Olivia burned. He wasn’t doing anything but tweaking her nipple and cupping her pussy while he kissed her, but she felt laid bare. As if he’d still had her duct taped and spread eagled for him on the plane. He kissed her for a long while, and while he was busy reinforcing their intimacy with one another, she also felt as if he’d crawled into her heart. Her chest felt raw, like he’d opened her up personally and slid his way in.
Her ribs ached; her breastbone throbbed.
Shit, is this love?She thought. Her hand came up to settle across her heart and a whimper escaped her as a tear fell out of her eye. With effort, she pulled away to look at him.
“You came for me,” she whispered, her eyes searching his. “Even though I left in such a horrible way. I fucked your bikes up. I messed my car up. And disappeared for over three months,” Colin’s eyes stared back, no less intense in the light of the day in the bathroom they were in.
“I told you once before; I will always find you, Olivia,” Colin rasped again. His eyes hardened suddenly, the skin tightening around them and crinkling in that way she loved. “But the bikes,” he sucked his teeth. “Oh, you are paaayyyyyiiinnng dearly for that when we get home, missy. You took out six bikes, and my favorite one at that.”
“Well,” Olivia swallowed, a small smile on her face. “I would do my worst if I were you. I totally did that on purpose. I may have to take out more bikes if you don’t pay me back well enough,” she said her tone and face turned serious.
“Careful, sweetie,” he said with a warning tone, his voice just above a whisper. He tilted his head further to regard her with his own serious look, arching one dark eyebrow. “You don’t get to top from the bottom in this relationship. You know how I feel about the tone you take with me.”
Olivia gasped as with a quick twist of his wrist he’d suddenly inserted two thick fingers high and hard into her. She heard water splash on the floor as she arched hard, sucking her teeth in pained pleasure before she relaxed on a low, long moan.
“Jesus, I had to work to get them in baby. You’re so fucking tight and swollen. Tonight’s not going to go well for you, huh?” he retreated and thrust back in gently. Not a complete monster, it was reigned in for now.
“Colin,” his name came off her throat, sounding strangled.
“What. Is. My. Name?” he whispered in her ear, his voice clipped.
“Sir,” she moaned, her pussy clasping weakly.
“That’s right. Sir first, Colin second.” He thrust into her for long minutes, grinning wickedly against her mouth as she grimaced and circled her hips in the tub. Her orgasm evaded her, but he stayed with her, nipping at her lips and his growl rumbling deep in his throat. But yet it continued to be a slow build. She whimpered and furrowed her brow in frustration, her mouth tightening. Her nails bit into Colin”s forearm.
“Oh baby, this is good. I love you making me work for it,” he growled, spreading his fingers slightly and swallowing her squeak. His thumb circled her sensitive clit tightly, ignoring her small wiggles to try and get away.
Feeling sweat drip down her temple, Olivia gasped, feeling like she was on fire. She was surprised the tub wasn’t boiling.“Sirrrr…,” she moaned, tilting her head back further. Suddenly worried that he’d let her slip into the water and drown on her orgasm, he might be that sadistic. Her thoughts took another turn, and she was suddenly happy he wasn’t like the main characters in her spicy books she reads who said “come” and then all of a sudden the woman came.
“Stay with me, Olivia. Whatever thoughts you’re having, dismiss them and focus on us,” he said, sensing she was withdrawing in frustration. He bent forward and clamped his teeth on her neck, agitating and pulling her flesh. That did it. Her lungs seized up on a painful gasp and she jerked her hips as she felt her orgasm suddenly attack her from behind, picking her up harshly and tossing her off the cliff.
She heard an embarrassing moan echoing around the bathroom. Her blood rushed in her ears and she relaxed after a tense minute. Her hips lowered back to the tub, nestling against him once more. In her desperation she’d hooked a leg over the side of the tub and arched her lower body out of the water, Colin’s arm banded hard around her chest to keep her anchored to him. With a hitched breath, she realized fingers were still seated firmly inside her. She made a low pained sound as he removed them slowly and with effort, panting.
“Now that,” he said in his hoarse voice, “was the most beautiful fucking thing I’ve ever had the pleasure of seeing in my life. Jesus, you’re going to kill me.”
Colin made them linger in the tub for a while longer, until he was sure she was physically recovered before he activated the drain and lifted her out. He sat her on the vanity and blow dried her hair, giving her small kisses, lingering looks, and soft touches on the marks he’d left on her body.
Olivia felt shattered, and though she missed Allison and her family dearly, she was ready to go home. She just felt too vulnerable and needed some alone time to process what Colin told her on the plane. Colin agreed, and he worked fast, stripping the bed quickly and disappearing down the hallway, leaving her to get dressed. They walked to the front of the house, hand in hand, and Olivia was grateful that Vanessa and Jonathan treated them with much more grace than her and Colin did when they were caught in a similar position when they’d first spent the night months ago at their house.
“I love you, sissy,” Vanessa whispered in her ear after a long hug. They’d spent time saying goodbye to the three of them before climbing in the car and pulling off. Colin placed his hand on her knee in his familiar way, and she covered his hand with hers, breathing deeply and listening as she called in a dinner order from Louis” Lunch. She stayed in the car, not fully trusting her legs, as he went in to grab their food. She took a second to appreciate his sexy walk as he disappeared into the restaurant and pulled out her phone, quickly finding Aliyah’s number and beat out a quick text, feeling her heart beat painfully as shame filled her once again.
Beau, it’s Olivia. I am so incredibly sorry at how I left and not contacting you. I couldn’t risk being found. I’m back home, just wanted to let you know. I love you and hope to talk to you soon. -Olivia
Olivia then sent out almost the same text to Stella, noticing that Colin had put all her contacts into the new phone, minus Gypsy. Feeling a similar pang, she realized she must have left everyone confused and reeling and wondered if she’d get her friendships back. Staring at her phone, she waited several minutes, disappointed when neither of the women replied. She blinked back tears, acknowledging she’d fucked up, plain and simple.
Colin reappeared with two humongous bags of food and slid easily into the driver’s seat, buckling his belt. He turned briefly, seeing the change in her, and his eyes scanned her face in concern.
“What happened?” he said tightly, pausing in his movements, not putting the car into reverse yet.
“Nothing,” she whispered as she kept her eyes averted from his, not wanting to bother him especially so soon after returning home. It was her mess, and he couldn’t fix everything. There were some things she’d have to do damage control on herself.
“I don’t believe you, but I’m going to let it go for now,” Colin reassured her, aware that she was emotionally exposed, still trying to process their interaction on the plane. Their style of sex was raw, ripping them open and leaving them bleeding. He knew to only push so much.
He’d just got her back and wasn’t willing to rock the boat quite yet.
Pulling off onto the road, he turned on a relatively light playlist before placing his hand on her knee, and by the time they pulled up to the house they were laughing and singing along to the songs. Content to just be silly together for a minute after the seriousness of the last couple days.
Pulling the SUV by the fountain, he parked, tossing her the keys to open the door while he grabbed the bags.
“Why didn’t you pull into the garage?” Olivia asked, wincing as she realized it was probably still a mess from her destroying around half a million dollars worth of bikes and the back of her Porsche. Seeing his face she continued, “Never mind,” she said quickly, walking carefully up the stairs and ignoring her shaking legs.
He tossed her a wry glance as he headed through the door ahead of her, juggling the bags.
“Why so much food? There’s no way we can eat that much! Unless you plan on feeding me a burger in between sex-capades. What did you get?” she teased, closing the door behind her and pausing as she realized how much she missed this home. She threw him a goofy smile as she heard some playful fun music filter through the surround system.
Olivia hugged herself. He came for me. Viciously, with some punishments, and my legs feel like jello. But he came, and told me the truth.
Walking deeper into the house she rounded the kitchen, hearing more music blast through the open sliding doors that led to the terrace outside. Colin jerked his head that way.
“Look outside,” he said, starting to unpack the food and place it into the kitchen warming drawer. She tentatively walked out onto the terrace and her mouth opened in shock as she heard a huge splash.
Aliyah, Sara Banks from the studio, Vanessa, Allison, Jonathan, Stella, and Vincent were all in the pool, splashing each other. Vanessa and Stella were floating on some ridiculous unicorn and flamingo floatation device. There were little balloons everywhere and pitchers of premade drinks and a little ice cream vendor that had a three-tiered cake on ice in a frosted covering which Mary was in front of, accepting a chocolate ice cream cone from the vendor.
Olivia looked at Colin in confusion, too stunned to process what was going on.
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY!” they suddenly screamed from below, cheering and waving at the couple as they saw them on the balcony above. Olivia’s jaw dropped and she looked over at Colin with her brows furrowed before slapping her forehead.
“OH my God,” she whispered. “It’s your birthday!?” she hissed, blushing. “I didn’t get you anything!” she said, horrified. So much had happened in the last couple of days that she’d forgotten what the date was.
Of course I didn’t, dummy. I wasn’t supposed to be here. If he hadn’t come for me I’d still be in China, she thought to herself.
Colin arched a brow as a grin graced his face. He pulled her closer with a hand on her waist and leaned into her, his lips brushing her jaw.
“Yes, you did. I got my present the day before yesterday, on the plane, and multiple times at Jonathan and Vanessa’s. And I’m looking forward to tonight’s presents too,” he said darkly, pulling her flush against him and nipping at her earlobe. He pulled back and patted her on the ass.
“Let’s go get changed and join them. I’ve been waiting a very long time to show you the grotto. And I desperately want to see your ass in that purple bikini Vanessa brought you,” he growled, taking her hand and yanking her back into the house.
They changed quickly. Olivia had to smack his hands away several times, not even sure that she could endure another orgasm like the one she’d had earlier so soon. Her body was hungry for his still, and her nipples were sticking lewdly through the bikini top much to her horror and much to Colin’s amusement. She’d put on a sheer coverup and wrapped it around herself to try and help before they padded downstairs making their way to the pool. She’d put on a pair of sunglasses and Colin pulled her to a stop at a lounge before grabbing a bottle of sunblock.
“We’re not burning this beautiful skin,” he said, taking the time to slather her liberally before tossing her into the pool.
Colin spent time walking around and opening multiple umbrellas around the pool with Jonathan’s help, providing shade in various places around the perimeter of the water. His heart swelled in his chest when Stella and Aliyah pulled Olivia to them at the same time for a hug that left them all choking and sputtering as they were a flurry of girl limbs, red hair and braids. Mary leaned down to give her a motherly kiss on the cheek, which Olivia had to pull herself out of the pool for, her hair long enough to cover half of her ass, dark and heavy with the pool water.
The men got out of the pool and joined him at the little outdoor kitchen area to let the girls talk and catch up. Jonathan’s niece was currently playing with Allison in the deep end. Vanessa and Jonathan splurged on her having the best swim lessons shortly after her liver transplant and she was a natural. They all cracked open a beer and sat on the couches, relaxing.
“My man! Happy birthday dude. Your birthday present is with Stella somewhere, sorry I don’t do great with these things. I usually let her take care of that stuff,” Vincent said in his deep voice, leaning forward and clasping Colin’s hand hard.
He’d been a huge help with his security contacts, giving him the team that followed them to China for a week and found her bungalow. Colin appreciated the man. He and his wife held no ill will towards Olivia, only worrying and wanting to help find her too.
“Nah brother, you didn’t have to get me anything,” Colin admonished, leaning back and taking a deep drink of his beer. He was seriously relaxed for the first time in months, his gaze slid from Vincent’s to Olivia in the pool who was currently leaning against the little bar where several pitchers of mixed drinks were, pouring herself a healthy amount, and some for Aaliyah, Stella, Sara, and Vanessa who had their own pitchers of mocktails.
Man they are about to get trashed, Colin thought as he rubbed the back of his neck, feeling content.
“I’m surprised that you even allowed anyone here considering…. well, I would have thought you would have wanted to have some alone time with Olivia without a bunch of prying eyes,” Vincent said, sitting back and stretching his legs out. His dark skin glowed in the light of the sun. Jonathan chuckled.
“Oh, he’s managed to work it in. Trust me, I got to hear a lot of it,” Jonathan joked, sipping on his beer slowly. Vincent flashed him another white toothed smile that took up much of his face.
“My man,” he said, tipping his beer to him.
“That’s why we’re really here V, he needs a break before his dick falls off,” Jonathan laughed roaringly, jerking out of the way of Colin’s playful punch.
“That’ll never happen,” Colin said vehemently. The more he fucked her, the more he wanted her. He wanted to crawl into her skin until there was nothing left but himself there and he truly didn’t care who knew it.
“So, you punish her for fucking up your bikes yet? Your expensive luxury bikes man. I was sick for you when you told me that. I got a spare clicker in my car if you need it,” Vincent said, a small smile on his face. His inner dominant secretly eating up the drama with the reward of punishing a submissive. It made his blood hot. Made him want to snag Stella out of the pool for a trip to the guest house.
Colin’s eyes slid back to Olivia who was currently disappearing into the grotto with the women.
“Oh V,” he tsked, “She did that shit on purpose, so her punishment is going to be well thought out and purposeful. Mama’s got it coming, don’t you worry your pretty little dominant heart,” he said, using his term of endearment that normally only came out when he was extremely turned on. Vincent grunted in brotherly acknowledgment; satisfied.
Truth was, if he hadn’t had been so worried about her safety, coming home to see his bikes wrecked like that and the back of her car torn up would have sent him off the deep end.
Jonathan just shook his head, a slightly annoyed expression on his face. He made it no secret that he didn’t understand their lifestyle.
“Now, let’s crash their little party because I told her that I wanted to show her the grotto and she just can’t listen,” Colin said, standing up and heading into the pool with his beer. The men followed and joined the women in the space, the lights were on and glowing a purple pink.
