“Baby!” I whispered. “I want you more than ever and I’m going to have you. I just need to show you something first.”
“What is it?”
“Come on. You’ll understand when you get there.”
Her eyes darted to one side and the intoxicated passion of a second ago vanished in a puff of wind. She went back to looking scared. I couldn’t stand that.
I took her hand, led her to the door, flipped the lock, and took her out into the corridor back to the stairs. We climbed another four floors to a different corridor.
The complex of rooms, levels, and spaces inside the Heller stronghold tapered to the top of the mountain. Each level got smaller and more sparsely populated.
I turned off into the last corridor. It consisted of one wide space with a few doors on either side. The floor extended to an observation deck on the far end. It opened into the wind high above the canyon floor.
She stared out at the open sky, and without thinking, she let go of my hand and went out to the railing. She leaned against it looking down and up and in every other direction.
I hung back and watched her from a distance. The wind caught her hair and her features cleared. She smiled into the wind and shut her eyes. She could finally rest here and be happy.
My heart flooded with love for her. I would take any chance and run any risk to give her this. She deserved it. I would never let anyone take this away from her. I needed her here, with me. She would never be an outsider again. I didn’t care who I had to fight to make it happen.
She turned around and smiled at me. The wind hit her head from the side and blew her hair across her face, but she never looked happier or more beautiful.
She stepped back inside and looked around. The corridor spread out and the door to her left opened into a sitting room with couches, chairs, and a large table set up for conferences. Another smaller room had been set up as a library with bookshelves and computer stations.
She smiled at me again….and then she looked to her right. Her cheeks blanched when she saw another small apartment on the other side.
It looked like the one downstairs except that this one was much more lived-in. Her gaze skipped around at the furnishings. It had been decorated much more subtly…because a man lived here.
I walked up to her, slipped my hand against her cheek, and kissed her for the ages. I couldn’t survive loving her this much. I needed her right here in my heart and in my life and in my bed.
I took her inside and she stopped to look around. Now she understood. This was my place and I needed her here. I couldn’t stand having her and Connor staying downstairs in some guest room. They would never be guests. They were mine—my family.
She glanced at the kitchen and then into the second bedroom. I used it as my office before yesterday. As soon as I found out about Connor, I changed it into a bedroom for him. He would wind up living here sooner or later. I just didn’t know it would happen so quickly.
She jumped out of her skin when I shut the door. She spun around and stared up at me with huge, frightened eyes. I loved her too much to let her suffer like that. I needed her too much.
I cupped her cheeks and kissed her, but only once. “I need you, baby,” I whispered. “I need you here, by my side. Stay here—both of you. Please. I can’t do this without you.”
She smiled again, but her eyes swam with a different kind of agony. All the pain and fear and heartache of the last five years welled up in those eyes. I could spend a lifetime kissing her pain away.
I took her into my bedroom and now I couldn’t stop kissing her if my life depended on it. Every inch of her screamed for me to touch and squeeze and appreciate.
I gripped her ass and pulled her against my hard, pulsing cock. Not even lying down on the bed did her justice. I needed her now—hard and dirty and mean. I had to take her and conquer her and claim her right now before some other disaster interfered.
She met me just as ravenously. She arched her breasts into my chest and yelped when I squeezed them. I slipped my hands down her beautiful round ass and rubbed her between her legs from behind.
She moaned and sobbed for me and undulated her body against me the way she did downstairs. She threw herself at me just as hard. She needed me the same way I needed her.
I pushed her back against the wall and she gasped. I jammed my weight into her and flexed my knees to drive my prick between her legs. Her moans drove me out of my mind and the beast inside me yanked at its chain to get at her.
I clawed her shirt up and she whined in ecstasy when I yanked her bra down. Her magnificent breast fell into my mouth and she exploded when I started to suck.
Her fingers clenched in my hair and she reared back to shove her nipple into my mouth. Her smooth, soft skin compressed against my cheeks and her scent skyrocketed me into outer space.
I wrapped one arm around her waist and crammed my other hand between her legs. She bucked and sobbed riding down on it. She wanted it. She wanted me.
I let the beast out of its cage and all my buried desire for her erupted as never before. I tore off her nipple hard enough to make her scream, stepped back, and dropped on one knee. I’d been dreaming about this since that day in the woods. Nothing would stop me now.
I yanked her jeans open and stripped them down to her knees along with her panties. Her smell made my head spin and I didn’t give myself an instant to hold back.
