CHAPTER THIRTEEN
JESSIE
––––––––
I was wrong. My life is amazing.
For the last week, I’ve spent my days at the beach swimming and lying out in the sun, then later each afternoon I come home to cook dinner for Liam.
I’m a terrible cook, but he doesn’t seem to mind. It might be because the moment he walks in the door and drops his keys, I wrap my mouth around his cock.
I’m addicted.
I want more of him.
I also want to take things to the next level, but Liam has far more self-control than I do and says we need to take things slowly.
To prove it, he spent over an hour sucking my nipples and licking every inch of me last night. Including my asshole.
At least he’s stopped asking questions about my bruises. Which is not like him, and I’m a little suspicious.
“You don’t need to do that every time I walk through the door, Jess,” Liam told me as I sank to my knees tonight.
“I love it,” I said undoing his jeans.
I honestly do. The moment I see his cock, I get wet and my pussy tenses, pulsing with need for him.
Lapping at his shaft, I reach inside my denim shorts and begin rubbing my clit.
“Jesus. Yes, touch yourself,” Liam says, palming the wall behind me with one hand and grasping my hair with the other.
I moan, desperately, hoping tonight he’ll lift me up and thrust inside me.
“Such a dirty girl, a dirty mouth.”
His cock thickens, telling me he’s close.
“Oh god.” I’m going to make myself come any moment.
“Stop,” Liam suddenly orders. “That pussy is mine. Remove your fingers.”
Holy hell.
Swallowing as a whole new level of arousal hits me, I do as I’m told and my nipples get painfully hard.
Liam takes hold of his cock, removing it from my mouth. “Take off all your clothes and lie down.”
I glance around because we’re in the hallway.
“On the floor?”
“Now.”
Okie dokie, then.
Stripping my tank top, shorts, and then panties and bra off, I lie down.
Liam steps over me, stroking as he kneels on one leg. Going faster, I watch his face as his orgasm hits, and he comes all over me. I arch into his touch as he rubs his come into my breasts and pokes two glossy fingers inside my mouth.
“Take my cum,” he rasps, then pushes my mouth closed. “Now swallow.”
I obey.
As an already alpha man I’m not surprised by this show of dominance, but being the object of his desire is a whole other thing.
Grabbing my thighs, he pulls my legs apart and then slams his mouth down on my core. Lick after lick I writhe, moan, and hope tonight he’s going to slide his cock inside me.
“Dripping wet. All these juices are for me.”
“Yes...”
“Such a naughty cunt, wanting me so much.” His lips twitch as he sweeps his tongue over me again.
“Please, Liam,” I beg.
He knows what I want.
One finger, two fingers, three... I lift my hips and he pounds them into me, sucking on my clit like he’s starving.
I scream as my climax strikes.
Before I can come back down to earth, Liam is over me, his mouth on mine, kissing me like I’m the only woman for him.
I feel his hard cock resting on my pelvic bone.
He won’t go further.
He never does.
“I’m on birth control,” I say.
“Good.”
Another kiss.
“When the time is right, that’s good.”
I groan inwardly and remind myself not to push him. Liam Rutherford does what he wants in his own time. I’m just glad we’ve got to this point. Jayden will be home next week so I doubt Liam will make us both wait that long.
Clearly we’ll have to tell him.
I’ve been waiting for Liam to bring the topic up, but he hasn’t.
“Did you ring your mom?” he asks.
“Yes.”
Liam lifts me to my feet, and hands me my clothing. “And?” Patting my bottom, he follows me down to the bathroom.
Dinner is going to be ruined again. Each night we shower after pleasuring one another, and I try to rescue my cooking attempt.
So far three nights have resulted in take-out.
“And nothing. I said I was sorry for not letting her know I left Texas.” I step under the water and wait for Liam to join me.
When he does, I lift my face to his.
He’s at least a foot taller than me, with dark olive skin, dark hair and a range of tattoos which all have a story. Some I know, some are new, and I plan to ask about one day.
I watched this boy grow into a man, and I’ve seen his body harden and become stronger. The only thing that hasn’t changed is his eyes. The almost iridescent gray of his pupils are so unique and otherworldly. When they are focused on me it’s impossible to look away.
Liam cups my breasts and mindlessly fondles them.
“You didn’t tell her about us.”
I shake my head.
“Don’t. Please, Jess.”
“I said I wouldn’t. But we’ll have to eventually.”
His hand lifts to my face, and his thumb roughly rubs over my lips. “Give us some time. Your parents are like my second family. If this doesn’t work out, we don’t want to hurt everyone.”
“Sure.”
Why wouldn’t it work out? We’re perfect together. Perhaps men are just not as intuitive as women. I can see it as clear as day, but Liam seems to need more time.
“Plus, Jayden should be first.”
He groans as I slide my hand around his cock again. Which was my goal. I don’t want to talk about my family anymore. I need to feel this man take me completely and utterly.
I want him to wash away Frank Bonito and his evil friend, and I want Liam to own my body. To show me fully and completely how much he desires me.
“Lim. I want this inside me.”
Another groan.
“Trust me, I want it too. Fuck, turn around, I’ll wash your back.”
Ugh.
Reluctantly I spin around and close my eyes, enjoying the feeling of this gorgeous, ripped man touching me but knowing tonight is not the time to push him.
I haven’t forgotten about what happened back in Texas, but I’ve waited forever to be with the man I love, so I’m not letting those memories in.
Mom pushed me for an explanation when I spoke to her and said that dad was angry with me.
They wouldn’t be angry if they knew what I’d been through. But I’d rather have them upset with me than distraught over the truth.
Or judging me.
“Even your brother was worried.” She went on.
“Why? He saw me on Monday. Just because he had to go away to a conference—”
“What do you mean he’s away?” Mom asked.
“Jayden’s in Atlanta. I’m staying with Liam.”
Silence.
“Oh. Well, he’ll take care of you,” she said tentatively.
“He is,” I smiled and fought to keep the joy from my voice.
“Jessie, just remember those two boys are friends. The best of friends. Don’t do anything to cause any problems.”
“I know. God.”
She’s told me a thousand damn times. But what does she know? When everyone finds out, the joke's on them.
I always knew Liam was in love with me.
Well, perhaps he’s not in love with me yet. But he will be.
I think.
“What are you wearing tonight?”
Blinking, I wipe the water out of my eyes and turn as he kisses me. “Tonight?”
“The beach party. Ryder said Sav invited you.”
“Oh, is it tonight? Are you going?”
Liam squeezes both my ass cheeks. “Yes, I’m going. I’m not letting you go alone.”
“I see. So, you’re a possessive boyfriend.”
If I’d looked away, I wouldn’t have seen it.
Liam flinched. I shouldn’t have used that term, we aren’t there yet. But it didn’t feel nice seeing his reaction.
It’s not like I farted.
Swallowing my pride, I backtrack. “I mean, not boyfriend. Just whatever. Lover.”
He takes my face and kisses me, then turns off the water.
“Make sure you wear panties. If I have to kill any of my friends or colleagues, that could be awkward.”
Whew.
One thing about Lim is that he moves on quickly from things.
“Fine. You and your dumb rules.” I joke, running a hand across his muscular back as he looks in the mirror.
When I meet his eyes, they’re serious.
“Tonight, we need to make sure everyone still thinks we’re just friends. Until we tell Jay, we can’t tell anyone else.”
He’s right.
Am I worried about Jayden? Yes. He’s my brother, and I love him. I suspect he’ll feel betrayed. He’s been possessive of Liam all our lives.
When I was younger, it was different. Almost like I were their toy doll to protect. As I grew older, he would watch the two of us. But despite that, he’s always remained a loving brother.
We have never talked about it.
Surely he must know I’m in love with Liam.
Or thinks that by not raising the question, I’ll find someone else. I suspect everyone thought I would. Even Liam.
But that’s not what has happened. We are together now and will have to find a way to share the news when the time is right.
Which isn’t tonight.
“I agree.” I let out a fake sigh. “I’ll flirt with all the single guys and lead them off the scent.”
A microsecond later, Liam spins and pulls me against his wet, naked body, growling. “Try it and see what happens.”
Maybe I will.
Then maybe he’ll finally fuck me.
