We were here after all this time of me wanting him and him doing everything he possibly could to ignore me.
“Rain,” I murmured as I shifted my eyes to the side, suddenly embarrassed for some ungodly reason I couldn’t even begin to fathom. “I really think you should get off of me before you cause anymore damage. You’ve already fucked up my kitchen and broke my chair. Let’s not go for more damage here, okay?”
My words were utter bullshit. If he got off of me right now I might breakdown and cry here on my kitchen floor like some sad, weepy loser that I never wanted to be.
Now that he’d figured out that he wanted me back I wanted him to actually act on it. I had been impatient and brash before and acted on my feelings for Rain and I had been brutally rebuffed.
I could learn though, I was far from stupid.
Rain liked control in all things. He wanted to be the man in charge. For him, I could respect that and check myself.
But I was getting tired of waiting a I was ready for him to make a move already.
It was hard for me to sit back and watch his relationship with Isobel progress when ours seemed to have come to a standstill when he’d admitted to having feelings for me.
I was slightly jealous of Isobel and it was starting to feel really shitty because I loved the woman. Jealousy had no business in our relationship. She’d been waiting for Rain’s affection almost as long as I had been and I should have been nothing but happy for her.
And I was happy for her. I was happy for the both of them. But I was ready for mine too.
I was ready for Rain to stop fucking around with me, act on his damn feelings, and fuck me already.
But I didn’t want to bring it up to him because it felt too much like begging and begging got me nowhere with this man. I’d know because in the beginning I had tried.
“Look at me, Romero,” he demanded in a surprisingly gentle voice.
Since I was a complete sucker for him, I did exactly what he wanted me to do and I locked eyes with his.
His usually dead green eyes were as gentle as his voice had been.
I swallowed down the thick emotion the clogged my throat and fought the urge to look away from him just so I could escape that beautiful look in his eyes. I didn’t look away because I was too scared it would disappear the second I broke eye contact with him.
“You know I love you, Romero Flynn?”
I almost choked on my own goddamn tongue.
Was he a mind reader now?
What the actual fuck?
He cupped the side of my face and swiped the pad of his thumb across my bottom lip. His eyes tracked the movement like a magnet.
“You put on a tough act, and maybe it’s not all an act. I realized something today though and that’s you’ve got a soft, vulnerable underbelly that you work so hard to never expose. Well, baby, you exposed it to me even though we both know you never wanted to. I know it’s there now and, like with the rest of you, I’m going to do my best to take care of it. Now that we’ve got that sorted and you understand me, I’m gonna need you to kiss me. You don’t have to tell me you love me back, I already know you do. But you do gotta kiss me. You need to make that move, and I am not into waiting, so don’t make me.”
How one man could be so fucking sweet but so damn bossy all at the same time I would never know. But I sure as shit wasn’t about to complain about it now that I was getting exactly what I wanted.
I rolled my eyes as I leaned up and pressed my lips to his. That was as far as I got before he took over, growled, and kissed the breath right out of my lungs.
Like everything Rain did, he easily took control of not only the kiss but me as well.
I wrapped my arms around him and practically melted beneath him as he pressed his body into mine. It felt fucking great having his weight on top of mine. And feeling his erection pressed against mine through our pants for the first time left me feeling dizzy.
I expected him to stop and pull away from me at any second so I was surprised when he pushed up to his knees, slid his hands down to my ass, and picked me up off the kitchen floor. Rain stood up and he picked me up with him as if I weighed nothing, and I was far from a small man.
Rain carried me to the kitchen table and dropped my ass down on to it all without stopping kissing me.
He broke the kiss and trailed lips that were surprisingly soft along my jaw and down my neck. His hands ran down my sides as he reached for the hem of my shirt. He stepped slightly back as he slowly dragged my shirt up my body. I shifted my arms and he pulled the shirt up over my head and dropped it to the floor.
I had scars on my body from my time in captivity and from the abuse I suffered before then. I wasn’t embarrassed by my scars or my body and I did not try to hide anything from this man.
