His thrusts slow, but he keeps on going even after I feel our combined release dripping out of me. He’s too worked up to stop and I don’t want him to. I don’t know how long we make love because one orgasm blends with the next. His movements slow to a stop, and I feel warm and tired and so happy.
I cling to him because I don’t want to fall asleep, but my eyes are so heavy.
“Bombshell,” he says softly as he rolls us over and keeps himself inside me.
He moves me so easily, and I sigh as I rest my head on his chest. I want to laugh at the name. If anyone is a bombshell it’s him because he’s blown my world wide open.
He rubs his big hands up and down my back and he sighs. “I was rough. I—”
“I loved it,” I cut him off because I don’t want to hear regret. My whole body tingles and I swear I can still feel his touch over every part of my body.
If you had asked me if I was loved last week, I would have said yes. My family loves me so much it’s suffocating. I don’t understand why their control feels so different from Jensen's, but it is. Maybe because he doesn’t treat me like I’m made of glass. I’ve been doing it from the start even when I pretended to ignore him and acted like I wasn’t into his games. Deep down I knew all I was doing was baiting him.
His hand pauses for a moment when his fingers graze over my scar on my back. My heavy eyelids pop open and my chest tightens. He doesn’t say anything as he pauses for only a second and then keeps going. Maybe he didn’t feel it after all?
I calm down from my mild panic and then take a breath. With every heartbeat I feel better and move closer to sleep. I try and fight it because I don’t want to miss a moment with Jensen, but the steady rhythm of his breath matches mine as his hands move across my skin. It’s too much to fight and I give up.
I know when I wake up things will be different. If this is real, there won’t be any hiding, and I don’t think Jensen is a man who hides from anything. I don’t want to hide it, but I also don’t want the fight that I know will come from my family.
“Sleep, bombshell. I’ve got you.” I feel safe in his arms and I trust him completely, so when he says everything is going to be okay I believe him and let go. Sleep washes over me and I have a much better dream this time.
I don’t know how long I’m out, but the next time I wake up I’m pissed when I realize I’m alone. I jerk back the covers on the empty bed like somehow that will make him appear.
“He better not have…” I huff as my feet hit the floor.
I reach for my robe and stop for a moment when I catch sight of my naked body in the mirror. Small bruises mark my hips and I’m hit by a vision of his fingers digging into me as he thrusts in and out. My face flushes red and I pull my robe tight around me and tie it closed.
Jensen is going to stop sneaking out of my bed. I know I have a fight with my family ahead of me about this, but I don’t care anymore. I’m not letting them control my life another moment. I love them, but I’m being punished for a crime I didn’t commit and it’s time we all moved on. My family has been suffocating me, and whatever nightmares I might be having are from the stress they’re putting on me. This might blow up in my face, but Jensen is worth fighting for.
Chapter Ten
JENSEN
I walk quietly down the hall and to the door before I slip inside. It’s a feat considering my hands are full of to-go bags, but I’m hoping to make it back into bed with Sage before she knows I’m gone. And if I come with food, we won’t have a reason to leave the bedroom for quite a while.
My legs are sore and my cock is drained, but all I can think about doing is crawling between her legs and humping her until I give out. After last night I have no idea when that will be because I’ve never been so desperate for anything in my life.
I take two steps inside and come to a halt when I see Brian standing in the kitchen with a pissed off Sage. I look at the situation and my hackles rise. I don’t like how he’s got his arms folded across his chest or how she’s glaring at him.
