“I think it may have been. Where did you get the money for that?”

He chuckled, but there was irony in that laugh. “Give it some thought and you should be able to figure it out.”

Looking down, I stared at a random spot on the floor. I wasn’t stupid, I knew. “The robbery – it was to buy the ring.”

“Among other things. We were starting a life together. We needed more money than I could come up with honestly. I thought that if I could get us the money to give us a start then we’d be okay.”

“But we weren’t okay. The reason I left was because of what you’d done.”

“Then why didn’t you turn me in?”

“Because I loved you. And then I found out I was pregnant and I just had to get away from the craziness that you seemed to thrive on. I was able to handle the fights and the occasional run-ins you had with the cops, but that was an entirely different level of wrong. I had to protect my baby.”

“Our baby,” he growled, his jaw clenching.

“Our baby,” I corrected myself. “But have things gotten better, Constantine? Have they really? You’re mixed up with Gabriel somehow and that tells me right there you’re hardly living an honest lifestyle.” I spread out my hands and took a step forward, slowly turning in a circle. “All of this. Are you a lottery winner or something, Constantine? Because I don’t even want to think about what you do to make this kind of money.”

We stared at each other a moment and I knew I was right. The shit that he was involved in was not something we should be around. “Am I safe with you?”

“There’s no one in this world you’d be safer with, Robyn.” He took a step toward me and then another. A part of me wanted to run away from him, but another part, the stronger part, believed him and needed to be in his embrace.

“Why keep all those memories?” I asked, taking a step toward him. I couldn’t resist the comfort of him if I tried and I was tired of fighting. I was tired of being with someone who only had me as a trophy that he’d take out and play with when he desired and then shut me away when he didn’t. That’s how life had been with Gabriel. I’d thought he was simply a hard-working businessman when I’d first met him. I suppose he was, but it wasn’t the type of business I’d imagined and there was a monster behind the smile and charm.

He stopped directly in front of me and took my upper arms in his firm grasp. “Telling you why wouldn’t do either of us any good, Robyn.”

I looked up and into his eyes. “I want to know.” But I knew, the veil was falling and I was seeing the love that had been there for so many years, lying dormant until now, lying in wait – for me.

“You’re the only woman I’ve ever loved. Fuck, the only person, period, for that matter.”

Chapter 17

Robyn

His lips came crashing down onto mine, hungry and demanding. His tongue forced its way past my parted lips as I gasped in surprise at his sudden action. The passion in his kiss combined with the admission of his love for me spiked the arousal and the need within me became overwhelming.

Throwing my arms around his neck, I kissed him back, my tongue chasing his, attempting to dominate as he grabbed my thighs and hoisted me up onto his hips. Wrapping my legs around his waist, I ground my pelvis against his groin, enticed by the rapidly growing erection against me.

Pulling his lips from mine, he bit at the side of my neck. I groaned out loud. The scent of his cologne drifted to my nose, wrapping itself around me and drawing me in.

Clothing. There was too much clothing between us. Unwrapping myself from him, I pulled back and slid down his body until I was kneeling before him. My fingers swiftly undid his belt and undid the button on his jeans. Unzipping him, I hooked my fingers into his belt loops and with one quick yank pulled his jeans down. Next came his boxer briefs, exposing his rock-hard shaft with a pebble of precum at the tip.

“Jesus Robyn, you don’t –”

I didn’t let him finish his sentence as my tongue lashed out at the tip, licking up the cum. He groaned, placing his palms on the top of the drawers above me. He looked down and I caught his gaze as my tongue lashed out again, this time swirling around the head.

“Don’t what?” I asked before running my tongue up the underside of his shaft.

He groaned again. “Dammit, I don’t know anymore.”

Smiling, I grasped his balls in one hand as I ran the tip of my tongue up his shaft a second time. I wanted him, I wanted him so damned badly, but the look of yearning and lust in his eyes made the wait for my own pleasure worthwhile. I vowed that by the time I was done with him he’d be ripping my clothing off, begging to be deep within me.

As I went to tease the tip again, Constantine rocked his hips forward, slipping his dick into my mouth. Surprised, I gagged as the head slammed against the back of my throat, but quickly recovered, grasping the base of his shaft in my free hand and working my hand in time with my mouth, moving up and down his length.

In and out, I took him almost completely in and then pulled up and tickled the slit at the head with my tongue, while my hand on his balls gently massaged. Over and over, I continued with the motion, spurred on by his moans and the gentle thrusting of his hips to meet my motions.

But, ohmygod, the need within me was intensifying to almost unbearable heights. If I weren’t wearing jeans I’d have my hand on my pussy right now. I shifted positions uncomfortably, as the evidence of my desire continued to build and saturate my panties.

He was building too. The precum was leaking at a more frequent pace and his dick had gotten so hard and thick that I was sure he could break bricks with it. The idea was to get him to this point and have him fuck me into oblivion, but I couldn’t stop myself, I needed to feel his cum beating against the back of my throat.
