“You surely will do that,” he shuddered. “You’ll take every inch. You’ll drink every fucking drop.”
“Oh my God,” she gasped when a deep growl accompanied his seething breaths. “You’re coming,” she whispered, delirious with need. Would he leave her this way? God, she hoped not and yet...did hope. She had no idea she could crave this kind of dominance in a man.
“Get dressed,” he ordered, slightly winded. “Then I want to discuss what happens between us when I return.”
Her stomach tied in knots as she quickly did as ordered, wondering what was coming with them.
She stared at her phone on the bed when dressed. This was going to be something big. Was she ready for that?
She snatched the phone from the bed and put it to her ear. “I’m ready to discuss...us.”
He gave a sexy, primal sound of satisfaction, setting off her desperation again. She couldn’t remember ever needing anything as much as she did him.
“What we do in private will not be linked to those things we do beyond that. You willalwaysbe the mother of your children and I willalwaysbe your King.”
Oh dear God. Yes. HerKing.
“Okay,” she whispered, pushing hair behind her ear as she eased back onto a bed pillow.
“I am not and never will be a replacement for your children’s biological father. I will always be your King and by extension, their greatest and most loyal ally. Their needs, desires, wishes, and welfare will not be my business but yours.Youare my business. Your needs, your wishes, your desires, and your welfare are all mine to keep. If your wish, desire, need, or welfare require me to cross over that first line regarding your children, I will. I am your shield and your sword.” She waited in the sudden silence, her blood dancing with a mix of fear and elation. “Ask me your questions.”
Oh hell. She considered all he said, realizing there was something she didn’t like in this arrangement. “I...can I make a suggestion?”
“Of course.”
She scooted back on the bed, crossing her legs. “It occurred to me as you were...defining things that...I...”
“Take your time, my Jolynn.”
Her heart walloped her chest at the tender way he said her actual name. “Uh...” A light laugh escaped her. “Sorry, you distracted me with my own name.”
His single deep chuckle was a damn panty melter. “What occurred to you?” he prompted softly.
“That...I may be ready for a break,” she forced out.
“With?”
“Yes, uh...I hope this doesn’t sound bad on my part. But I may be ready for a break with the kids. The discipline side of things,” she hurried. “I mean I know I have to still discipline but...I wouldn’t mind if...you were to help me, and I supported your lead. I see you’re highly qualified in the way of...humaning and trust you would be better equipped than I’ve been.” She closed her eyes. “I hope this doesn’t sound like I don’t care about my kids—”
“Jolynn,” he cut in. “It in no way sounds like you don’t care about your children. It sounds like you’re weary of doing a job you were not intended to do alone.”
“Yes,” she gushed, agreeing.
“It is a profound honor to see to your children’s training inhumaning, as well as having you trust me to do so.”
She smiled and gave a happy laugh. “Humaning, right?”
“It does cover everything.”
“It does.” She nodded, drawing her knees up then straightening them as she wondered. “So...where would you...be?”
“Since I have been given the privilege of humanizing your children, I will be where it is best for me to be in that regard. Very near.”
Very near. “Like...a mile away?”
“Like an attached lodging away. At the home you will pay me to finish building.”
“Oh, I...” She bit her tongue on the habit of declining all help. “I think that would be...perfect.”
