“Love?”
“Love, Brooke. I love you.” It felt good to get that out. “I love you so much that if you tell me that you don’t want this, you don’t want me, then I’ll let you go and never fault you for it. Above anything else, I don’t want to lose your friendship.”
Her head was pressed against my chest; her heart was pounding so hard I could feel it. “I want it all, Gannon. I have for a while now. I’ve dreamt of this moment.” She raised her head to look at me, and I found tears glistening in her pretty eyes. “I love you too. I have for quite some time. The way you are when you’re with Braiden and me—I’ve fallen in love with that man. But I know how my family will react. We’ll have to keep this a secret.”
“No. I can talk to your brother. You don’t have to worry.” My lips were quivering, wanting to kiss her so damn badly. “Brooke, can I kiss you?”
She grabbed my biceps as she licked her lips and stared into my eyes. “Please. I’ve wanted this for such a long time.”
Slowly, I moved my head to reach her lips and when they touched, something inside of me woke up just as something else exploded, shattering me in a way I didn’t know was possible.
I knew then that I would move heaven and earth for this girl; I’d do everything I had to, to keep her with me and only me.
When our mouths parted, I looked at her, her eyes still closed. “Was that how you thought it might go, baby?”
“Better,” she murmured. Her arms went around me as she hugged me tightly. “Can we do more?”
I nuzzled her hair and kissed her neck, moving up to her ear. “We can do anything you want to. But I’m not rushing you.”
“Can we start tonight?” Her words came out so quietly that I almost didn’t hear them.
“We can.” My heart was soaring. My mind was reeling. And I had something I had to take care of. “I’ll go get rid of Jasmine. Can you take Braiden and bathe him while I do that? Then I’ll meet you in his room to read to him until he falls asleep. Then you and I can go to my bedroom. If you want.”
She looked up at me with eyes that were filled with a nervous excitement I’d never seen before. “Gannon, is this really happening? Or am I dreaming again?”
“It’s real, baby. This is the most real anything has ever felt to me. And I don’t want you to worry about a thing. I’ll be so gentle with you, I promise.” I kissed her again as her lips begged me to do it.
One more sweet kiss, the second of what I prayed would be billions upon billions. Never had I known love like this. I had fallen in love with my son and somehow also opened my heart up in a way it had never been.
Between him and Brooke, I now felt love overflowing inside of me. And things could only get better from here.
“Gannon, I know you said you could talk to Brad and make him understand. But I don’t want you to do that. Please promise me you’ll keep this a secret. I don’t want the staff to know either. Please.” She looked at me with pleading eyes.
“But …” I had to protest. She had to let me be honest and open about this. She was the best thing I’d ever found, outside of Braiden. I wanted to shout that from the rooftops.
“Please, Gannon. Promise me. This will be our secret and ours alone.”
With a sigh, I dropped my forehead to hers. “Okay. I promise you that. For now.”
Only for now ...
Chapter 18
Brooke
My dreams were coming true. Gannon felt the same way I did. A little over a few weeks had passed before he’d been able to admit his feelings for me, but he’d finally done it and I had too.
Watching him as he read a book to Braiden made me melt even more than it usually did.
Knowing he and I were in love made this all that much sweeter.
I could see it all in his eyes. He’d meant what he said when he had told me he loved me. I’d known that for a while. His eyes had told me that long before his mouth did.
I glanced at Braiden as his eyes closed and his breathing slowed. “He’s out.” Gannon kissed his son on top of his head, the way he’d done every night since that first one.
I’d seen Brad a few days back, and he’d told me he’d never seen Gannon so happy and full of life. He credited Braiden for that. I knew that was a part of it, but so was I.
If only I was older, then maybe we could be open with this. But I was still a child in my family’s eyes. I knew we’d have to keep it a secret. Probably for a very long time.
Putting the book back in the bookcase, Gannon looked my way, catching me as I watched him. “You ready?”
A wave of shyness took me over, but I fought it back. I nodded and got up from the other side of Braiden. He waited for me then scooped me up into his strong arms, carrying me out of the bedroom and across the hall to his.
My stomach was a mess. Butterflies had given way to rabid bats. I laid my head on his broad shoulder to try to steady myself. He was going to see me naked! “God, I’m nervous.”
“I’m glad you’re admitting that. You wouldn’t be human if you weren’t nervous.” He kicked his door closed behind us then took me to his bed. Laying me down gently, he stood over me, looking down at me. His large fingers went to work, unbuttoning my shirt. He pushed it open then climbed on the bed next to me and kissed the tops of my breasts that spilled out of the bra. “How I’ve wanted to taste you, Brooke.”
My stomach tightened with my shyness. But I had to admit something to him too. “I’ve wanted to taste you too, Gannon.”
He pulled his warm mouth off me, looking up at me. “You have?”
I nodded. There was so much to explore on one another. I found myself lacking patience, wanting to do it all right away, despite my irrational fear of him seeing my naked body. “How about you let me …”
He didn’t let me finish. “No. You’re going to let me do things to you. Then we’ll see about letting you do things to me. I want to show you things you’ve never felt, first. I’ve been dying to, baby.”
My heart stopped, my body quivered, and I tried to ready myself for the adventure he was about to take me on. “Okay.”
Easing my clothing off, inch by inch, he was going so slowly that I was about to cry out with the impatience I was feeling. It came right along with the unbearable feeling of anxiety at him looking me over. I just wanted him inside of me. I wanted to feel his weight on my body. I wanted to feel his cock spreading me and filling me.
But he was slow with me, kissing every inch he uncovered. My body was on fire as he finished his kisses, ending at my toes. Then he pushed my legs apart, spreading them. His eyes were on my cunt, and I was heating with raw embarrassment.
God, what’s he thinking about it?
He growled as he made his way back up the bed, his still-clothed body in between my legs. His hands ran up the insides of my thighs.
I watched as he eyed my crotch. His hands pushed my thighs open even more as he leaned over me, his lips barely touching my innocent ones. His tongue eased through my folds. “Ahh …” I couldn’t suppress the moan he’d incited. And all my feelings of embarrassment and shyness started to ebb.
His fingers kneaded my inner thighs as he moved his tongue all over my sex. I groaned with the sensation it sent through me. He was incredible. And he was all mine. He’d given me his word on that.
His hands moved around to my ass; he pulled me up as he darted his tongue into me with a slow rhythm. In and out, in and out. I was going higher and higher inside my head. My body didn’t feel as if it was mine at all.
No. It was his. It belonged to him and only to him. I’d made the right decision, waiting for him. I knew it then.
I fisted the sheets as he moved his tongue out of me, running it up my slit, and then his mouth was on my clit.
He sucked it a bit, then tapped it with the tip of his tongue. Back and forth he did that, until I felt a wave start deep inside of me, filling me with desire, lust, and utter passion. The vibrator didn’t hold a candle to the talented man. I nearly screamed with the o
rgasm. “Yes, Gannon! Yes! God.”
The way he kissed my intimate lips after that only served to take me higher. Then he stood up and undressed in front of me as I gasped for air, writhing with pleasure that took me over, destroying any shyness I had left in me.
He could look at me all he wanted, just as long as he made me feel that over and over again for the rest of my life.
I couldn’t take my eyes off his body as he undressed. I had known he was built, but my God!
“Oh, baby. Oh, Gannon …” I let out a moan as ecstasy filled me. Looking at his ladder-like abs and his massive pecs, his biceps that bulged, made me even hotter and wetter for the man. His legs were just as chiseled as the rest of him. “It’s as if your cut from stone, Gannon. Perfect.”
“I think you are.” He placed his hand on my stomach, and my legs went completely still.
I drew in a breath as I waited to see what he was going to do next. “Gannon.” I stopped and tried to think of how I should say it.
“What, baby? We don’t have to …”
I stopped him. “No. And we do have to. We most definitely have to. I’ve never wanted anything so badly in my life. It’s just that; I don’t know how to …”
“Is this about birth control, Brooke?” He smiled at me, then winked. “I’ve got condoms.”
I didn’t want to use them though. And I didn’t know how to tell him that. So I just closed my eyes and went for it. “I’m on the Pill. I have been since I was sixteen. And as long as you know you’re clean, sexually speaking, then …”
He moved his body over mine. I could feel his throbbing cock press against me, but he wasn’t attempting to put it in. I arched up to him, wanting it inside of me, a thing he wasn’t doing.
Wrenching my mouth away, I found myself begging, “Please, Gannon. Please, I want it.”
“Oh, baby …” He made a low, growling noise. “You don’t know how badly I want to be inside of you. But I don’t want to hurt you.”
“Stop worrying about that,” I moaned. “Please, just do it, baby. I need you.”
He sighed and kissed my neck, which made me insanely crazy and hot as hell. I arched up to him even more, wanting it so damn badly. “Gannon. Fuck me. Please.”
“Oh fuck, baby. I knew you’d be like this. Keep talking to me like that. Tell me what you want. What you need,” he growled at me. “Show me the person you’ll only be with me. The one no one else will ever see.”
“Please, fuck me, Gannon. Make me yours.”
“You’re already mine, sweetheart,” he murmured, taking my face in his hands and kissing me so softly that I could have cried at his tenderness. “You always have been. Then his body raised up, and he placed his hand on his cock, guiding it to the edge of my quivering vagina. He looked into my eyes as he lined it up, then he thrust it into me fast and hard.
Heat tore through me as I spread for him. My nails gouged into the flesh of his arms as I cried out, “God!”
He went perfectly still, both of us panting like animals. Then he began to move slowly. “You did great, baby.”
“Did I?” I had to ask as a couple of tears escaped, as it still hurt pretty badly.
“The hard part’s over. It only gets better from here.” He kissed me then, and I wrapped my arms around him, letting it all sink in.
The pain went away as if by magic and I moved my body with his, knowing I’d waited for exactly the right man.
Chapter 19
Gannon
It wasn’t like any other experience I’d ever had. Even then I knew I’d never feel this way with another woman. Not ever.
As I moved with slow strokes to get her body accustomed to my girth, I couldn’t help but notice the way I was feeling. Light, almost as if gravity had ceased to exist.
We could’ve been floating on a cloud for all I knew. It was effortless, the love we made. I couldn’t tell where I ended and Brooke began. And I never wanted it to end.
Taking my mouth off hers, I kissed my way down her neck then moved all the way down until I had one of her luscious nipples between my lips. Nibbling at first, I couldn’t resist the urge to suck it with a hard and demanding tug.
She gasped, and I felt her body shake a little. Her hands went through my hair as her body rolled in a wave-like fashion, undulating with pure desire. “Gannon! God!” I felt her begin to squeeze me inside and was surprised to feel her having an orgasm.
Continuing to suck at her juicy breast, I relished the way her body felt as it convulsed around my cock. It was so fucking tight, and she was moving in a way that had my entire body so on fire that I was helpless against it all and found my own release had been drawn out.
Letting her tit go, I groaned loudly as I shot my load into her. I opened my eyes and looked at her beautiful face as she moaned. Her nails bit into my biceps as she gripped them tightly.
“I love you, Brooke.” I leaned down and kissed her lips with a soft kiss. “Thank you.”
She ran her hands over my cheeks as she looked at me with glistening eyes. “Thank you, Gannon. I knew it would be you who took me for the first time.”
First time?
I wanted every time.
I kissed her again, an easy kiss that conveyed how much I cherished her. “If I have it my way, you’ll give me every time. I can’t see letting you go.”
She smiled, her lips a bit swollen from all the kissing we’d done. I had to take those luscious lips just one more time. Hers opened, the tip of her tongue touching mine. Lightly, they danced, and I felt my cock pulsing back to life inside of her soaked depths.
The taste of her was something I honed in on as our tongues touched with tentative ease. Slowly, I wrapped mine around hers, moving it with soft strokes, actually tasting her. Her teeth were smooth against the sides of my tongue, and then I felt hers running past mine too as she began to moan.
Small pulses began around my cock as her body responded to our kiss. Easing my mouth away from hers, I moved to graze my teeth along the length of her neck. Nipping at it, I drew in a breath before going to work at the soft spot just behind her ear.
Even the slightest touch she gave me left trickles of pure electricity in their wake. “I’ve never felt this way before, Brooke.” I bit her neck, making her moan as she arched up to me.
Moving slow and easy, I started stroking my cock with her body. I was held so tightly, so completely, by her soft walls. Slick from our orgasms, I moved with so much more ease in and out of her tight little box.
Her soft lips ran over my shoulder as she pulled her legs up higher, allowing me to ease in a bit deeper into her. She moaned with the sensation, “Gannon, this can’t be real. It’s too unbelievable. I’m here—in your bed—in your arms.”
I shivered with her words. “Yes, you are. I feel like you’ve always belonged here. With me, here, like this.” I kissed my way to her cheek then tasted her lips for one brief moment before I pulled away to look at her. “You’re beyond beautiful, baby.”
The blue of her eyes sparkled like jewels as she smiled. Her cheeks were already red from my whiskered face, but they went a bit more scarlet as she blushed. “Gannon, stop.”
Shaking my head, I rubbed my nose against hers. “No, I will not stop. You’re amazing. And I’ve never felt so fucking happy in my entire life.”
She giggled as she arched up to me. “Gannon, you’re too good to be true.”
I was so not too good to be anything. I was lucky as hell that she had let me into her heart, into her body, into her life.
There was so much to show her, to learn from her, to feel with her. Even as I moved my cock inside of her, I knew there was so much more I wanted to do. But I had to get some patience. There would be time to do all I wanted with her.
“This is real. We are real, Brooke. A real live, walking, talking, fucking couple.” I took her lower lip between my teeth and tugged it, making her moan.
“Why does everything you do to me feel so fucking good, Gannon?” She ran her l
egs around me, holding me tightly to her. “Ugh! I could live like this right here with you forever, if it was possible.”
“But it is,” I growled as I went at her a little harder and a little faster. An eagerness to show her how it felt when things got a little rough filled me, taking me over as I made thrusts so hard, I could feel the air exit her lungs through her mouth.
I rolled over to put her on top of me. But when I went to push her to sit up so I could watch those size Ds bounce while she moved her tight cunt over my hard dick, she hung on tightly to me.
I rolled back over, pinning her to the bed underneath me and looking at her. Furiously, I thrust into her as I kissed her. Then I pulled her arms above her head, holding her down while I looked into her eyes and fucked her for all I was worth. “Keep looking at me, Brooke. I want to watch your face when I make you come all over my cock.”
Her eyes went wide as she bit her kiss-swollen lip. She nodded and kept her eyes on mine.
Grinding into her soft core, I made sure my body was moving over her clit each time I was deep inside of her. She bit her lip harder as her body began to tremble.
I felt her insides clamping down on my cock and fought back the growl as long as I could. But then it erupted as she came all over me and I had no choice but to climax too.
Her face contorted as she found her release. She tried so hard to get me to release her hands, but I held them down as I watched that perfectly sweet face go from shyness to one of desire and scorching hot sexiness.
I lifted my body up more so I could see her breasts as she gasped for air.
Gorgeous.
Absolutely amazing.
“Yeah, baby. Feel that. Take it all in. That’s what it’s all about. Getting to that place where nothing else matters but you and me.” I kissed her once more before I released her hands.
Falling to one side of her, I tried to catch my breath as I listened to her trying to do the same thing. In a harsh, breathless whisper, I heard her sweet words. “Gannon, I fucking love you.”
“Yeah, you do. And I love you, honey.” The words, which I’d never said to any other woman until today, came totally easily. I clasped her hand tightly, intertwining our fingers. Bringing them up, I kissed hers. “We can sleep for a little while. Then I’ll wake you up and make some more of your dreams come true.”
