“Abel, I want you. I’ve never wanted a man more.”
He looked up and down my body while he hesitated again. “Just know, you’ll be mine. In this moment I will claim you.”
His words should have sent me running. That should have been a red flag and I should have been scared of him and what they truly meant, but I was so consumed by him and the power over me he lusted for. It was one of the most intoxicating moments of my life. I had never wanted anything more than to be his, only his.
“Do I have to say it again?”
He nodded.
“Take me, Abel.”
He growled softly. “Say you’re mine, Crickett.”
“I’m all yours, Abel.”
With that he yanked off the shorts and his boxer briefs. His erect member was one of the most gorgeous dicks I had ever seen and definitely the biggest.
I licked my lips. “Let me taste you.”
A fire lit in his eyes. He grabbed my shoulders, pulled me down so my head was off the pillow, and straddled my head.
“If it gets too intense, just grab my thigh hard. Ok?”
I nodded and licked the tip of his dick slowly. “I think I can handle you, babe.”
A deep chuckle came from down in his chest. “I hope so, sugar, because I am not the most gentle man to say the least. Now open your fucking mouth.”
I’d had guys attempt dirty talk in the past, but none of them were ever good at it or really meant their words. With Abel, he was in charge and meant every command that leapt from his desire filled throat, and nothing had ever turned me on more. I felt slickness pool as my clit throbbed from the feeling of him slamming his cock into the back of my throat.
I sucked and licked while he thrust in and out of my mouth roughly. Tears formed in the corners of my eyes as he pushed harder with each thrust.
“Fuck, Crickett. You’re so goddamn good at this.”
I felt my sex ache for him. Want was building fast as I gripped his thigh.
Immediately he pulled away. “Are you ok?”
The amount of concern he showed was comforting. “Yeah. I want you to fuck me.”
His lips pulled into a sensual smile as he rolled me back on top of him. “As you wish, babe. But I want to see those tits bounce as your cunt takes in my dick.”
Fucking chills.
Goosebumps coursed up and down my entire body as he pressed his thumb to my clit, slowly teasing me.
“Condom?”
Panting, Abel pointed to the nightstand. “Top drawer.”
I leaned over and yanked that drawer open as fast as I could while my knees were shaking from the small circles he continued to draw on my slick folds. Shoving my hand in, I felt what I thought was a condom wrapper, but what did I find instead? Fun Dip.
“Really?” I couldn’t help the laugh that flew out as I threw the blue package of my favorite childhood candy onto Abel’s bare muscular chest.
He shrugged. “So I have a sweet tooth, doesn’t everyone?”
I nodded, grabbing the candy. “I know what I’m having for dessert after.”
“You’ll need it once I am done with you.”
Abel rolled me off of him, grabbed a condom, and ripped the foil with his teeth. He handed it to me. “Go nice and slow, babe. Let’s make an event out of this.”
I climbed on top of him, doing as he asked, taking my time rolling the condom over him. He sucked in a sharp breath, gripping my hips tightly.
“Take it in.”
I rubbed the head of his dick over my slick lips, smirking a little. His grip got tighter, his jaw working intensely as he watched me.
“Don’t be a damn tease, babe,” he growled. He was not amused with my playtime.
“Fine.” I leaned back, positioning him at my opening. “How badly do you want it?”
“I think how hard my fucking dick is speaks for itself you firecracker.” He slapped my ass hard, gripping it firmly with one hand. “Fuck me, Crickett.”
I took my time taking him in. I gasped as I felt myself stretching, letting him consume me.
“Oh my God.” I moaned and started to rock my hips, grinding softly into him.
“Your cunt is so damn tight. Holy fucking shit.”
With his hand still on my ass, he pushed me hard down onto him, bucking his hips up into mine. He was perfectly positioned and within minutes I felt my climax building quickly in the pit of my stomach.
“I’m going to fucking come,” I moaned into his ear as I dug my nails into his shoulders.
“Not yet.” He pulled out and rolled me onto my stomach. “Lean on your forearms and get that cunt in the fucking air, sugar.”
“I’ve never…” I blushed before I finished my statement. I wasn’t used to many positions. I wasn’t really well-versed in sex at all, except what I’d learned watching porn alone with my battery powered pocket boyfriend. I had been with a few people but they’d all sucked or were lazy assholes. The trailer park didn’t have too many options in the men department and there was no freaking way I was going to sleep with one of the customers at the strip club. That was more my mom’s style, not mine.
“There’s a first for everything, babe. This will be fun. I like being your first for something.”
He guided me into the position, kneeling behind me and wrapping his hands around my waist. Pulling me close to him, he leaned down and kissed my back. “This might hurt at first. Play through the pain. It will be worth it.”
Pain quickly crashed with pleasure as he plunged into me. My knees shook as I gripped the comforter under me. It was the first time I had felt this much pleasure from sex, ever. Period. Hands down. I was quickly addicted.
He pressed his thumbs harder into the small of my back, pulling me firmly into him and making me cry out.
“Like that, Crickett?”
“More than you know!” I groaned into the blanket.
He thrust into me faster and harder, pulling my hips back into him as his balls smacked against my swollen clit. I cried out without even realizing what I was doing. Quickly, he wrapped his hand around my mouth.
“Shhh.” He whispered, “You’ll wake up the whole freaking house, babe.”
I forced my voice to level. “I’m so close, Abel.”
“Good.” His gravely tone sent electricity up my spine. “I’m going to come with you.”
Our bodies shook and pulsed as our climaxes crashed around us.
I felt drunk, at least that was the closest feeling I could compare to how amazing I felt in that moment.
Abel pulled me to him and kissed right under my ear. “You’re perfect.”
“You’re pretty unbelievable yourself.”
“Let’s get cleaned up. Raine is going to be getting up soon.”
Abel shoved up from the bed, making his way into the bathroom. I heard the shower start and I hoped he wouldn’t mind if I hopped in with him. My body craved to be near his, even though it had been only seconds since he’d walked away; it was more than a little unnerving, but also thrilling all at once. I had never lusted before. Maybe I had never really liked a man more than just a little crush. Whatever was going on with me, my head, and my libido, for the first time in my life I was going with the flow and enjoying myself, not worrying about what my next move had to be. It was pretty incredible.
A pounding sounded on the door and I quickly covered myself with the sheet.
Abel ran to the door with a towel wrapped around his waist and threw it open. “What the fuck?”
Holt was standing in the doorway. “It’s Rave, he didn’t check in after his meeting in Riverside last night and no one can get ahold of him.”
Rave. That name sent chills through me again. Could it really be my dad? How many Raves existed in the world? My body started shaking as I pulled the covers higher up my chest.
“Fuck. Yeah, ok.” Abel rubbed the back of his neck. “Let me get some damn clothes on and I’ll be down in a second.”
Holt nodded and turned to le
ave, but not before peeking around Abel to wave at me.
Well this is humiliating.
Abel slammed the door, grumbling to himself.
“Can I help?” I started to pull my jeans on.
“Actually, how comfortable are you with driving trucks?”
I shrugged. “Friends back home used to let me take their mud trucks out all the time. Why?”
“Would you mind taking Raine to school and maybe picking her up? I really need to handle this right away.”
“I don’t mind at all. What should I do about work?”
Abel shook his head. “I’ll handle that. While I’m gone, you won’t have to work.”
He grabbed a piece of paper from his dresser, scribbled on it, and handed it to me. “Here is the number of the house I will be staying at while I am away, just in case I don’t have cell service. Call if you need anything. Drive my truck around, we’ll grab your car when I get back into town. I don’t want to worry about you getting stranded again.”
He threw clothes on, shoved his keys into his pocket, kissed me on the forehead, and headed out the door. “I’ll check in with you guys tonight.” He called through the door before jogging down the stairs.
I hopped in the shower for a quick rinse off, rummaged through his shirts until I found one small enough to pass on me, and made my way down to the kitchen to make a pot of coffee.
Right as the pot was finishing up Raine bounced into the kitchen. “Where’s Daddy?” she asked while climbing onto one of the big wooden chairs at the table I was leaning on.
Holt followed her in. “He had to go meet up with Pop, but he’ll be back soon, sweetheart.” He patted her on the head before grabbing two mugs out of the cupboard and handing one to me.
“Thanks.”
He nodded. “Thanks for sticking around here to help with her. Don’t worry about the bar, a few of the guys and Ronda are going to pick up some hours here and there. We’ll be fine. Just do what you have to.”
“Ronda’s okay with that?”
I could just picture her freaking out when they called this early in the morning to add hours to her shifts.
Holt shrugged. “She’s gonna have to be. Abel or Rich will deal with her. That ain’t nothing for you to worry about.”
“Sounds good to me, I guess.” I shrugged before turning to Raine. “What do you want for breakfast, honey?”
“Captain Crunch, please.” She sat at the table with Miss Gilda at her side while I fixed her a bowl of cereal.
Chapter 6
How was school today, sweetie?”
Raine jumped into the front seat of Abel’s truck, throwing her bag in the back seat. “It was ok.”
She wasn’t her normal, bouncing, bubbly self.
“What’s up, gloomy? Everything all right?”
She shrugged. “Yeah.” With a huge forced sigh she hugged Miss Gilda to her chest.
“Was someone mean to you today?”
She nodded.
“Was it a girl or boy?”
“It was a bunch of kids.”
My heart gradually started breaking. No one ever deserved to be bullied, especially a child as sweet and goodhearted as Raine.
“What were they doing?”
She shifted in her seat, staring blankly out the window as I pulled out of the school’s parking lot.
“It’s ok, Raine. You can tell me.”
“They were saying mean stuff at recess.”
“Does this happen a lot?”
I kept glancing over at Raine as her cheeks got redder and redder, her nose started sniffling, and her eyes watered. I pulled the truck to the side of the road. I took my seatbelt off and shifted so I could put both my hands out for her to grab.
She just stared blankly at me. Clearly this was not something she felt comfortable telling grownups about. I really wished Abel was there to help handle it, but I couldn’t let her be sad, it wasn’t fair to her.
“Sweetie, please tell me. I know we just met, but I think we’re really good friends. Good friends trust each other with big secrets. Would it make you feel better if I told you a secret first?”
She wiped her nose with her sleeve before nodding.
“Ok.” I sighed and finally Raine took my hands, squeezing tightly. “I was bullied so bad in school because I didn’t have a daddy. He had moved far away when I was just about your age. Kids were mean to me about it.”
Her eyes got wide, like she was shocked someone else could relate to how mean kids could really be.
“Now can you tell me your secret?”
She took in a deep breath and with a sigh of relief, she whispered, “They were making fun of me because Mommy is in heaven.”
I felt the waterworks welling quickly. Those freaking jerks at her school were little monsters. I wanted to turn that truck around and go spank each and every one of them and then tell their parents to put hot sauce on their tongues, or better yet soap like my mom used to do to me when I talked back to her.
“That’s not fair sweetheart. I’m so sorry.”
She forced a smile, gripping my hands with her tiny fingers. “It’s ok. They don’t have a mommy angel and I do.”
And there ya had it: the most put together five-year-old on the freaking planet. Abel really was doing an amazing job with her.
“How about we get you home and we call your daddy to see if we can get some ice cream?”
She perked up in her seat. “Yay! Ice cream!”
Raine rushed into the house and got cleaned up as fast as she could while I called Abel.
His deep drawl came onto the line, sending chills down my arms instantly. “Hey, Crickett. Is everything ok?”
I started to pace in the kitchen. “Yeah, just got Raine home. She had a little bit of a rough day at school.”
He sighed softly. “She’s been having problems with a few of the kids in her class.”
“She told me. Can I take her for ice cream tonight? Cheer her up a bit?”
I could hear the smile on his face. “After she does her homework, that sounds like a great idea.”
“Awesome. How’s everything goin’?” I had no idea if I could even ask about what was going on with the missing club member, I just wanted to know when he was going to be coming home without sounding needy or desperate.
“It’s goin’. I’m gonna have to be out of town for a few more days than I expected. You don’t mind staying at my place while I’m gone, do you? It’s a huge help to Holt and me.”
I didn’t even have to think twice about it. “Sure. I can grab the rest of my stuff from the motel in the morning.”
“Thanks babe. I have to run, I’ll be in touch. Kiss Raine for me.”
Holt ambled into the kitchen. “Was that Abel?” He asked, grabbing a beer from the fridge.
“Yes sir.” I took a seat at the breakfast table.
Holt joined me. “Did he tell ya that he’s going to be gone?”
I nodded. “I’m going to stick around here and help you with Raine. If that’s okay with you.”
“If that’s what Abel asked you to do, that’s fine by me. We’re swamped at the garage and short staffed at the bar. It’s better if I’m there.”
“Well, I’ll hold down the fort. I really love Raine. She’s awesome.”
“I can agree to that. Oh, I forgot to tell you. I brought your car back so you don’t have to keep driving that big ole truck around town, unless you want to.”
“Thanks Holt, I appreciate it.”
Raine came down the stairs and Holt left to veg out on the couch after a long day at work. After homework and some ramen noodles, I took Raine to get ice cream in town. She was completely carefree, not showing any signs of the hurt or frustration she’d had when leaving school only hours before. When we got back home it was bath time, and then I read Cinderella to her.
Right as her tired eyes started to flutter closed, she wrapped her tiny arms around my neck and kissed me on the cheek. “I’m glad you’re her
e,” she whispered, resting her head on my shoulder.
I kissed the top of her head. “So am I.”
I shifted out from under her, pulling the covers up and making sure she was tucked in nice and tight.
“Goodnight, sweetie. Sleep well.”
Climbing into Abel’s massive bed not too long after tucking Raine in, with the soft cotton sheets and one of his soft white shirts and basketball shorts on, was amazing. I plugged my phone in on the nightstand, turned off the lights, and lay there wide-eyed. I knew I should have had a beer or two before bed to relax me a little but with being responsible for someone else’s kid, I just didn’t feel right about it.
I flipped through the late night channels trying to find something just boring enough to help put me to sleep. I finally settled on a documentary about cheetahs. The monotone voice of the narrator was as good as the Sandman throwing sleep in my eyes.
A few minutes later a text rattled my phone on the wooden table next to me.
Abel: Hope you’re making yourself at home, babe. Wish I was there holding you.
Me: Your bed is a little lonely without you in it.
Abel: How’s Raine doing?
Me: Fine. Much better than this afternoon.
Abel: Good. How are you doing?
Me: Can’t sleep. You?
Abel: I wish I could help.
Me: You’ll be home soon though.
Abel: I can’t wait.
Me: Me either. I’m going to try to get some rest.
Abel: I have to be up early too. Kiss Raine for me.
Me: I will. Goodnight.
Abel: Night, sugar. Miss you.
Me: Miss you too.
Chapter 7
The next few days droned on. Since Abel was gone, Holt was working like a dog and Raine was in school, and most of the time I was bored out of my skull.
Right as I was closing Raine’s door from putting her to sleep a little later than normal—it was Friday and I figured I could be a tad bit lenient since she didn’t have to be up for school in the morning—I heard the front door slam and the sound of voices in the living room.
Nerves crashed into my stomach when Abel’s gruff tone called up the stairs to me, “Babe? You here?”
