Page 60 of Hard to Love

Biting her lip, she moans my name in a long exaggerated breath. “Hardy, please.” Hooking her strap with my thumb, I pop her hook and watch as she springs free. Her breast, creamy with hard, reddened nipples, beg for my mouth.

Laying her back, I scoot her up the seat. Thayer lays before me, topless with her jean-covered legs spread. I reach over, turning the heat up before unbuttoning her pants. She grabs my hand, studying me for a minute.

“I need you to know you’ve always been my home.” Damn it. Had I known that, I would’ve kissed her the night of the party. Because she would have left with me.

“I know.”

Running my hands over her thighs, slipping my hands behind her knees, I fist her jeans and slide them down her legs. Tossing them to the side, I twist the corner of her panties in one hand and jerk. Watching them snap in my hand has me about to come on sight.

Taking her ankles, I push her feet up the seat before placing my hands on the inside of her thighs to spread her wide. Thayer eyes me as she palms her breasts, biting her lip as she does. I groan at the sight of her hands on her breasts, kneading them as she lay open to me.

I kiss slowly up her thighs as she squirms, and I run my tongue through her wet pussy. Her moans alone could make me come. As I work her pussy with my tongue, lapping and licking her like a starved man, Thayer moves her hands into my hair, fisting it.

Sliding my middle finger into her, I suck her clit between my lips. Savoring her. She bows from the seat of the truck in an instant as her orgasm washes over her, and she screams my name. Climbing up on the chair over her, she stops me by placing her hand over my heart.

“No. Pants.” She points with one eye open, still trying to catch her breath.

I chuckle, stepping back down to kick off my pants. Raising her head from the seat, she springs up on her elbows when I start back into the truck. Thayer scoots further back in the seat as I look at her questionably. She pats the seat in the center of the truck.

Sliding over, she throws her leg on either side of me before settling down. Slowly. she begins kissing my neck, my jaw as I clutch her breasts. Taking my cock in her hand, she rubs the tip over her clit then slowly through her wet pussy. Dragging it through her spent orgasm, she lines us up and begins to sink slowly down on me.

Her hips widen as she takes me as deep as I can go. She sits still for a minute, regaining herself before she blows my mind. Sunk deep in her, Thayer opens her heart to me. “Here. We will never be too far from one another to get back to this place. Together. You are my home. I love you.”

“Marry me?” Gazing deep into her eyes, I know her answer before she says it.

“Yes.”

Thayer begins to move as I remain deep in her, not slow nor fast. She rides me, sliding me out to the tip and then taking me to the hilt. We slip and slide with each other as we kiss and touch. Loving, savoring, memorizing every single thing about the other.

My fingers dig into her hips as her ass uses my thighs to bounce back up. In and out, we slide. Her moans battle my groans for air as our lips part but a few times. Her breasts rub against my chest, causing sweet friction. We work up a nice sweat before losing our battle and coming together.

A sweet release to the hell we’ve put each other through the last few months. She wraps her arms around me as I hold her even closer. “You own me. Thank you for coming home.”

Chapter Thirty-One

Hardy

As dark begins to fall, we lock up Thayer’s truck. We ran the gas out of it. After spending the entire afternoon out at Still Creek, we start back into the city. She sits beside me on the seat, my arm wrapped around her.

Driving over to Chord’s to collect our dogs, we’re a little surprised to see Lea and One are there along with Thayer’s parents. Okay, I’m a little nervous, to be honest. I did cause this entire fiasco by keeping things from Thayer. And running away didn’t help.

Parking on the side street, we walk toward the door. Thayer takes my hand and squeezes it tightly. “No worries. I love you.”

Her words make me crack a nervous, offbeat grin. “No, none at all.” She giggles.

“It’s not like they’re here to hang you.” She laughs a little louder.

“I’ve had you out by a pond all day, defiling your body with mine. Your truck needs a tow because it ran outta gas. And, my gorgeous lady, you’re walking bow-legged.” She full-on laughs, grabbing me by my jacket as she leans in for a kiss.

“How does my makeup look? Smudged?” she asks as she stares me in the eyes.

“It’s all gone. Like you didn’t even have any on. Fuck.” She elbows me in the side.

“I didn’t. Good thing I love you.” Pulling her into me, I kiss her hard. Only stopping for the round of applause that erupts from behind us.

Our family stands at the door, whooping and woo-hooing as we approach. Taking their turns to hug and kiss us, we’re passed around. One slaps me on the back as Lea takes my face in her hands and quietly dispenses her sound advice.

“If I belong here, so do you. But you have to believe in yourself first. Thayer knows your love is genuine, now show her how right she is.” She kisses me on the cheek before taking Thayer in her arms.
