Ten
Eoghan
I squinted at the monitor,then squinted harder when I saw Ma’s cheerful face peering back at me.
“I know you’re there, son.”
I grunted. “Do you know what time it is?”
“Time for me to smack Winnie upside the head?”
Shit, I’d forgotten about that, and I thought she had as well, considering tomorrow would be a week since the last time I saw her.
Then I peered behind her, and groaned when I saw Da, Aidan Jr., and fucking Brennan along for the ride.
“You woke us up,” I groused, even as I let them into the elevator.
“We remember what it was like to be newlyweds,” Da said, and I rolled my eyes, grateful when the intercom stopped transmitting with them tucked inside the elevator.
I didn’t wait for them to arrive, just headed to the bedroom where Inessa was curled in a ball, her face toward the door. She’d been cuddled into me when I’d woken up, and I really fucking resented being shoved out of bed for a meet and greet between my mother and the goddamn help.
Grunting, I dropped to a squat beside the bed, and muttered, “Baby?”
Her eyelashes fluttered, and I swear to fuck, she was the most beautiful thing I’d ever seen this early in the day. Her skin was like porcelain, her face delicate, and her eyelashes batted against the upper tilt of her cheekbones in a way that made me want to feel them against my skin.
I was a hard man, but fuck, everything about her got to me.
“Sweetheart,” I rumbled when she didn’t stir.
A sigh escaped her as she unfurled on the bed, and the sight of her tits playing peekaboo with the sheet had me lifting it slightly and peering under to get the full show.
“Beautiful,” I sighed.
“Thank you.”
Her whisper had me smiling as our gazes tangled, and even though I was feeling grouchy, I didn’t stop smiling as I informed her, “Ma’s on the way up. Da, Aidan, and Brennan too. It’s a whole fucking gathering.”
A shriek escaped her, and she flung herself off the bed. I had to laugh when she got tangled in the sheets and half fell out of it, only saved by my catching her. I copped a feel of her ass, grinned when she shivered against me, her hips rocking like she appreciated the touch—my kinky little mouse—then she moaned, “Why didn’t she warn me?”
“Probably to catch you unaware. She’s shrewd,” I said unapologetically, then I leaned down when she tried to move away, and whispered, “I could fuck you here. Now. While they’re outside, waiting on us to come out.”
She froze, but she didn’t slap my chest, or shove me away again. If anything, I felt the taut wire that linked us together pull even tighter. Unable to stop myself, I reached between her thighs from behind, slipping through her legs, and let my fingers caress her pussy.
Sopping.
Wet.
“Fuck,” I grunted gutturally. I’d been teasing, testing, but now I really wanted to fuck.
“Eoghan!” Ma called out, making me grunt again.
Inessa tipped her head back, and her pupils were like pinpricks. “You’d do that?”
“If it got you hot,” I replied instantly, and I saw that it did.
I saw that it got her so fucking hot that it was a wonder she didn’t goddamn melt.
Reaching up, I rubbed my other thumb against her bottom lip, tugging it down so I could see her teeth just as I nudged her clit. “You like that, huh?”
