The Everest Brothers: An Alpha Billionaires Series
Page 88
“I love you. Every last inch of you.” She kisses me, and I start moving again. Gentle soon turns erratic as I start to lose the rhythm to chase the finale. “Fuck,” I groan, just out of reach of the utopia I seek.
Slowing, I drag my hands over her shoulders and down to her wrists, then move her arms above her head. I start off slow again, wanting her to feel every part of me loving her. Her legs wrap around me as I thrust harder, her moans encouraging me to go faster.
My elbows rest on either side of my beauty. Her hair tangles around her head. With every thrust, my name comes off her tongue like a sweet melody. Too soon . . . too soon, I’m lost in the depth of her starlit abyss.
I push.
I push.
“I do.”
“I do.”
I push . . . until . . . I find the relief, feeding my needs. My breath escapes, and I drop my head next to hers. When my body calms, and my mind eases, I turn and kiss her cheek. She whispers, “You are everything to me.”
I lean back and look into her eyes while her hand still caresses my cheek. “You are everything to me. The sun, moon, and stars. My Winter’s night. You’ve taught me what love is.”
“And that is?” she asks softly.
“Love is seeing someone and realizing they’re your soul mate. We weren’t just two people attracted to each other. We were two souls drawn together.”
Winter kisses the tops of my cheeks and then my forehead. “Love is marrying the man of your dreams and not wanting to be anywhere else but in his arms and our own bed.”
Pushing to the side of her, I bring her back to my chest and spoon her how she loves to be held while whispering in her ear, “Love is Winter Renee Everest.”
An alarm goes off. Worst timing ever. Angling back to look at me, she says, “What’s the alarm for?”
“Brownies are ready.” I hate leaving this bed, but for what I have planned, it’ll be worth the trip.
She laughs when I grumble as I sit up and then lies with her arms spread wide. “You wore me out.”
“You have time to recover. I’ll get the whipped cream.”
When I click on the TV, an old black and white movie plays. She fluffs the pillows under her head, and says, “This is my favorite movie.”
“Casablanca?” I still love learning everything about this amazing woman.
Her nails trail lightly down my arm. “Of all the bistros in Paris, you walked into mine.”
“And I’d do it again.” Taking her hand, I kiss each finger. “I’ll always be there when you need me.”
“Because you’re the hero of my very own fairy tale.”
“And you’re the queen of mine.” I steal a kiss from her lips before hopping out of bed. I detour to the bathroom to clean up before I rush to get the brownies out of the oven.
This goes to show that I have absolutely no game when it comes to sex with my wife. She makes me come too fast every fucking time. I grab the homemade cream I whipped up earlier and then check my emails while the brownies cool on the stovetop.
The third email gets my attention. Kurt is being extradited to the States. No more Brie and champagne for that motherfucker. He’s about to have a rude fucking awakening. They are going to love him in prison.
He should also be thankful for those bars that protect him because if he ever walks free . . . I’ll be waiting for him.
I close my computer and turn on some music, forgetting that fucker while thanking the stars for the life I have the pleasure of living with my wife. “Just Breathe” plays through the speakers, and I think about the journey Winter and I have taken to get where we are now. It’s something I think about a lot.
The locket sits on the counter next to where we stripped off our clothes earlier. Knowing her mother watched over her and provided for her is helping to heal her loss after a life of feeling abandoned. This necklace has given her great comfort over the years.
It still infuriates me to think about how her own father and brother treated her. She’s the flower that grew from the rubble. The rainbow that broke through the storm. She’s extraordinary.
Needless to say, I’ve lost no sleep over hearing the news of Braden having a run-in the first week of prison. I didn’t bother to ask what was meant by “run-in” because I’m okay with any version of it. The bastard.
Her father certainly hasn’t been receiving any preferential treatment that we feared either. Men in prison don’t take kindly to hurting children. He never got to correct them on her age. That he tried to kill his daughter was enough to have him convicted by the prisoner’s jury. Karma’s a bitch and has doled out her punishment.
Winter calls me her destiny and her wish come true. Despite how often I tell her the same, she insists she’s the lucky one.
She just doesn’t understand the depth of my feelings. This woman has become everything to me—everything good in the world, everything worth living for.
“Hey there,” she says, wrapping her arms around me from behind. When I turn around, she’s wearing one of my favorite concert tees—The Crow Brothers band—who also happen to be good friends. I can’t wait to introduce her to them. “I got lonely in there by myself.”
Bringing her against me, I say, “C’mere and let me keep you warm.”
“What should we do while we wait for the brownies to cool?”
“Your wish is my command.”
“Remember when we were practically strangers?”
Running my hands over her hips and under the shirt, I say, “I sure do, but I prefer wife now.”
“Me too.” She kisses my chin. “I was thinking I could put on a football costume I bought the other day and you could try to score a touchdown.”
“I don’t need to role play when it comes to you and me.” Lifting her onto the island counter, I roam my hands from her shoulders and down her arms. I find the hand with her ring on it and kiss her palm. “I already scored.”
She spreads her legs, welcoming me while resting her arms around my neck. “Are you always going to be this romantic?”
“Every day and every night for as long as we both shall live.”
“What about any tough times ahead? I get moody sometimes. Do you think you can handle those?”
“Thorns and all, cactus flower.” Waggling my hand, I add, “This ring binds us for life.”
Her heels push against my ass, and I move in as close as I can. Our lips meet, and I savor every second I get doing exactly this with this stunning woman. Parting breathless, she says, “I’m shooting for eternity.”
“A woman after my own heart.”
“I’m not after it. Remember, I already have it. You gave me yours, and I gave you mine.”
“How could I forget? Maybe you need to remind me.”
She hops off the counter. “Happily. Get the brownies and meet me in bed, movie star.”
“And we live happily ever after.”
THE END.
