Wrapped in his arms, I feel like the luckiest girl on earth.
CHAPTER EIGHT
Landon
I wrap my arms around her protectively. Last night when we made love at the party, we had to return to the barbecue and act like nothing happened, but I was so desperate to have her again that I climbed in through her window in the night and fucked her again. Her body and mine together are the perfect match. It felt so damn good being deep inside her and now, the hunger for her is insatiable. Now that I know what we have when our bodies are together, it’s all I can think about.
Some part of me wishes I could make her father like me somehow so that we can be together for real, but since that will never happen, this is the next best thing. Sneaking around with the woman I’ve come to love in such a short time. Waking up next to her, our bodies aching from the events of the night before. It’s a dream come true.
I move closer to her, a growl forming in my throat as my cock wakes up and pokes against her naked body. I can’t resist her. She does things to me that no woman has ever been able to do before. And now that I know she’s mine and all mine, untouched by any other, it feels even more special lying beside her. I know this love is forever, no matter what her father might say when he finds out. We’re going to prove everyone wrong.
She stirs in her sleep and turns over to face me. Her eyes open, and her seductive smile catches me off guard. She lets out a sweet moan as she leans in to kiss me.
“Good morning,” she purrs, her lips feverish. Her heavy breasts press against my chest and I growl, cupping one in my hand. My other hand ventures between her legs, only to find her wet and ready for me.
“It is a good morning,” I say. She laughs, kissing me again.
“As much as I want you to keep touching me like you are, you should go soon. My Dad gets up early. I don’t want us getting caught.”
Part of me wants us to get caught. At least then we’d have a confrontation one way or another. Maybe he’d grow to accept it if he found us entwined like this now. But I know that’s wishful thinking. Besides, if she wants to keep us a secret, then I’ll do it. I’d do anything for her.
“Okay. Just a few minutes, then? Then I’ll head out. He’ll never even know I was here.”
She snuggles into my chest and sighs. “How are we going to keep this up, Landon? We’ve been up half the night. We can’t do this forever. Sneaking around, it’s so exhausting. I want to be able to tell him about the man I’m in love with, and if I’m pregnant well there’s no way I can keep that a secret from him.”
I kiss the top of her head. “We’ll work through it together. I’ll make him see some sense, even if I have to shake it into him. You’re mine, baby. He’ll have to know that sooner or later.”
She looks up at me with sad eyes. “I’m no good at keeping secrets, and I hate lying to him. I feel like the longer we keep this a secret, the worst it’ll be when it all comes out. Which it will. These things always do.”
“Then why don’t we just tell him now?” I say, cupping her face. “You don’t need to be scared. I’ll take care of you, whatever happens. You’re the woman I love. I put a baby inside you, he doesn’t worry me. If he can’t accept it then he doesn’t deserve to be in your life.”
“But I want him to be in my life, he’s my Dad. I don’t want him to hate me for this.”
“The sooner we do tell him, the better it’ll be. We don’t have to tell him everything , in fact, it’s probably better he doesn’t know about last night...but we can tell him we’ve decided to date. Take it in small steps. When he sees that we’re made for each other, he won’t have any choice but to accept us as a couple.”
Elena closes her eyes. “I wish it was that simple. But I know exactly how he’s going to react to this. He’s going to be so angry.”
“It’ll be okay. Whatever happens, I’ll take care of you,” I growl, and she nods.
“Okay, you’re right. Let’s tell him in a few days. Let the dust settle a little, then we can tell him together.”
I kiss her lips. It feels so good to be moving forward with this. I’ve waited my whole life for her and I don’t want to hold back just because her father doesn’t understand what we are to one another. If we can get through this we can get through anything.
“Alright, baby. Let’s get dressed. I’ll leave now.”
“When will you come and see me again?” she asks. I cup her face again.
“Baby, whenever you want me, day or night. I’ll be here. Just look out your window and find me. I’ll be over in a heartbeat.”
Her face forms into a sweet smile. “I love you.”
“I love you, too,” I growl. I don’t want to leave, but I have to if our plan is going to work. I sigh and stand, pulling on my shirt and jeans from last night. When I turn around, Elena is back in her nightgown. I can’t resist. I have to have one last kiss before I leave.
I go to her and sweep her up in my arms. Her legs circle my waist and she clings to me as we kiss her. Her tongue slides in my mouth and my member rises in my pants. I’d give anything to take her again. But I should go. I should
