Caught Crossing the Line

  “Thank you for finding and saving me.”

  “I told you I would do anything for you. You know your mother had her suspicions, that’s why she came with me to find you. She heard stories about his bad habits, but she wasn’t sure if she believed them.”

  “Thank the stars that you both did.”

  “Are you angry with them?”

  “A little bit. They didn’t want to listen to what I wanted or trust my opinion. Something about Matteo made me uncomfortable and I told them that, but my father said it was because I was used to American men who let their women do whatever they felt like.”

  I just continued to caress my hand as we drove in the direction of the airport. I could feel the tension radiating off him, but I needed him to do what I needed right now.

  “Caleb, I hate to ask but can you please take me to the hotel so I can shower? I feel disgusting.”

  “Oh, of course, sweetheart.”

  “Oh my, I forgot my things are still at my parents.”

  “That’s okay. We’ll drive to get them right now.”

  He turned the car around and using his navigation drove us to my parents’ house just as they were pulling up. I was nervous about the confrontation, but I needed my things. I had my laptop and work documents with me, along with my personal identification.

  My father kept his head down, too ashamed to look at me. I can’t say I disagree. I was fortunate that Caleb came running to my rescue or I would have been violated or even killed. I don’t know what to say to them, my faith was shaken. My heart knows that they didn’t know how he was, but my mind can’t get over what only just happened.

  “I came to get my things. We are leaving. The wedding will be in two weeks,” I said as I looked at them. Caleb tried to interrupt but it was my turn to speak while I had it in me. “It’s in two weeks because I need some time to process what’s happened. By trying to keep me close, you nearly got me killed. I can see that the shame is in your eyes, but it’s something you’ll have to deal with. Right now, I just need Caleb. He’s a good man, and if you had taken the time to see that, we wouldn’t be where we are now. I love him and he loves me, and for me that’s all that matters. I love you both, but I need some time.”

  I walked past them and into the house to gather my things. I wasn’t gone two minutes before I saw my father and Caleb hugging. At first, I was shocked because I thought they were fighting, but they were actually hugging.

  I didn’t ask anything and I didn’t hug my parents goodbye; I wasn’t ready for that. So when I got to the car, I asked him what the hell that was about.

  “He needed it. Even though I wanted to belt him, I knew he did what he did out of love. They believed he was a good boy from a good family. He needed to know that there was hope of your forgiveness one day.”

  “That was generous of you.”

  “It was, but I didn’t do it for me. I did it for you. They’re still your parents, and I know that not having them there in two weeks would haunt you later.”

  He continued to caress my hand the entire ride back to the hotel he had stayed at. He took me up to the suite and into the bathroom. After hugging me tightly, he turned on the shower and attempted to leave, but I stopped him.

  “Will you join me?” I asked hesitantly.

  “I don’t think that’s a good idea,” he groaned as he grabbed the front of his pants.

  “Well, I happen to think it’s a fantastic idea,” I whispered. I desperately needed him to help me wash away Matteo’s touch.

  Caleb didn’t respond with words but was on me in mere seconds. His mouth captured mine, I could feel the anger and fear that had engulfed him today in his kiss. I willingly embraced his passion.

  ~~~~~~

  I needed to be inside her. I helped strip her clothes off, hurriedly. Pushing her into the shower, I stripped quickly and joined her under the hot water. I tried not to look at her wrists because I would want to find that bastard and murder him, but it failed when she ran her hands over her face to brush the water away into her hair.

  I growled, which gained her attention. “What’s wrong, Caleb?”

  “Nothing, except I want to kill him.”

  “Caleb, my wrists will be fine, but I can’t have my ethical fiancé breaking the law. I need to do something about that,” she said.

  “What are you planning to do?”

  She just winked then dropped to her knees. Yes, that would make me feel a lot better. She attacked my cock like she was starving, but to stop me from getting angry about her wrists, she placed them behind her back and worked my cock over with just her mouth.

  I was going to come so I needed to get her off my dick before I started spewing down her throat. She was traumatized enough for one day. I lifted her off the shower floor and kissed her gently. “Damn babe, you’re too good at that. You were about to get a mouth full of come.”

  “Pity, I was looking forward to it. You never let me finish you off.”

  “One day you can swallow my load, but right now, I need to be inside you.” I continued kissing her before pushing us into the water jets and against the walls. Then I slid her down onto my cock. We both sighed as I started pumping into her, letting the water splash all over us. It wasn’t long before I felt her body shake with her orgasm. I gave her three more strokes before I emptied into her.

  “I love you so damn much, Sophia.”

  “Love you, too,” she said while trying to catch her breath.

  We washed our bodies, fighting the urge to go at it again, which we failed. This time, I turned her around and drove into her from behind, slipping a finger into her slick wet ass.

  “Sophia, damn, I want to be in your ass. I want to own all of you.”

  “Please,” she begged as she pushed her butt back against my hand and sent my finger even deeper.

  I kept fucking into her pussy and grabbed the complimentary lotion from the shower shelf. Squirting it onto my fingers, I slipped two fingers into her anus. She cried out and pushed back, aching for more. Trying to open up her pucker for me, I began stretching my fingers and slipped a third one in. She grew accustomed to my extra finger. I reached around and teased her breasts, keeping her with me.

  I pulled out of her pussy and my finger out of her pucker, then in one swift movement pushed my cock into her ass, she tensed, but I was already deep within her.

  “You okay, babe?”

  “Uh ha, I just feel really full, but it’s a good full.” Her body adjusted as I started to stroke in and out of her. I scrubbed my hands with soap while I continued to slowly thrust into her ass. I then began to pluck her nipples and pinch her clit. She started juicing again and I knew I was going to make her come soon, and so was I.

  Our bodies slapped into each other, loudly, making me harder, if it were even possible. Her cheeks were bouncing against my abs while her insides tugged on my dick. I grabbed her by the throat before softly placing my lips next to her ear.

  “Tell me, babe. Tell me how much you love me.”

  “I love you, Caleb. God. Please don’t stop!”

  “You like me doing you in the booty?”

  “Yes, yes, yes,” she sobbed.

  “Good, because I like it too,” I growled into her ear, just above a whisper. “Mine, Sophia. You’re all mine.”

  She came on my hand while I pulled out of her ass and came all over her cheeks and back. Suddenly, anal fucking was something I could really grow to love. This time, we were too exhausted to go at it again so we washed up and headed to bed to take a nap.

  Chapter 10

  My head was still reeling from all the shit that happened. I’d just made love to Sophia and I wanted to go at it again. My mind was living that moment when I walked down and saw him on top of her. Heartbreak hit me for a second until I noticed that she was struggling. He was trying to get her to submit to him. Rage filled me as the need to end him took over.

  I looked at her as she laid there next to me. She dozed peacefully, looking
so beautiful. The sheet that covered her bared body only went up to the tops over her breasts. Sneakily, I started to slide it down, admiring how perfect they were. I continued my observation of her body, pulling the sheet down her flat abdomen and over her hips. I could just see a slight bit of her dark hair hiding her center when she asked, “What are you doing?”

  “Trying to figure out how to seduce you into letting me love you again,” I whispered huskily as I kissed my way down to her core. Parting her thighs, I opened her heat and explored her lips with my tongue. The first lick sent me into a tailspin of hunger. Her pussy was so damn honey sweet that I dived into her center, eating her to completion.

  Her hands tugged at my hair as she pressed her hips up, pushing her delectable cunt in my nose. I inhaled her scent and my cock started to leak onto the mattress. I was so damn hard I was afraid I’d come if she didn’t soon, and I already nutted twice in the past two hours.

  My woman came the moment I nibbled on her clit. “Ah!” she cried out. She asked to swallow my cum earlier, and well, I wasn’t going to deprive her of the pleasure.

  “Sophia, I want you to suck me off until I come down your throat. Do you want it, babe?”

  She greedily nodded and climbed up onto her knees while I stood on the bed with my dick all in her face. This time, she wrapped her fingers around my shaft and took me into her burning mouth. I was so hard she could barely fit my cock in between her luscious lips, but she relaxed her throat and took me deeper than I could have imagined.

  I groaned and pulled on her hair. “Fuck, Sophia. You’re going to get what you asked for. Now is the time to back off.”

  She didn’t take my warning, but she did take down my cum. I groaned and continued to fuck her mouth until my balls emptied and my knees buckled. Sophia didn’t freak out, and I grinned because I was lucky as fuck. Not all women swallowed, but my woman did.

  I looked down at the clock on the bedside table and realized we had two hours to get to the airport.

  “Shit, babe. We’ve got to get ready. We need to be at the airport in two hours.”

  We got dressed as fast as we could before checking out of the hotel and driving to the airport, which was Naples International Airport. We got there with twenty minutes to spare. Not a lot of time, but the airport wasn’t as crazy as Seattle’s. The moment I could use the Wi-Fi, I sent an email to Kristen, Malcolm, and Jackson.

  Hey my favorite people,

  Sophia and I are on our way back to Seattle. I wanted to inform you that we are going to be getting married in two weeks. I need you all to lend me a hand in making it happen while I’m working.

  Kristen—I’m sure you and Sophia will have tons of fun shopping for a dress and all the other things to make it special for my woman.

  Jackson—I know you’re busy, but I’m hoping you could make it and be a part of my party.

  Malcolm—you know I need you as my best man, so suit up.

  Talk to you some more once we get back. Long story short, things didn’t go as I expected.

  —Caleb

  Sophia fell asleep on the plane, exhausted from all of our loving. I needed to get some work done that I had put off because of all the damn crazies.

  We landed in Seattle and Kristen and Malcolm were waiting to pick us up.

  “Welcome back, Sophia!” Kristen said to my sheepish Sophia. I told her that I already contacted them about the arrangements and that the girls could take tomorrow off to do the planning and get used to each other.

  “So, how is my nephew doing?” I asked Kristen.

  “I told you not to tell anybody yet!” she yelled at Malcolm.

  “He didn’t. I was just taking a guess, but I promise I won’t tell anyone.”

  Kristen blushed with embarrassment, but Sophia stopped it by asking her about food. “We haven’t eaten since I don’t know when, and we’re starving.”

  “Sure, I’m hungry, too. But then again, I’m always hungry,” Kristen groaned as she rubbed her belly.

  After we had eaten, I took Sophia to our home and got ready for bed. She didn’t want to discuss our troubles because she was feeling worn out, so I didn’t bring anything up, but I couldn’t wait to talk to the guys because I was still ready to go after this asshole—illegally.

  The next day Kristen showed up before I left for the office, so I went in with Malcolm and left the truck to the girls.

  “So bro, do you want to talk about it now or when we get to the office.”

  “Now, I need to get it off my chest before I go insane with rage.” My brother only nodded as he drove. “First thing her father said was meant to insult me by calling me Ryder and that I wasn’t anything compared to some guy named Matteo. I was so fed up that I let her stay to talk with them and I went to a hotel because I wasn’t going to stay in their house. Then the next day, she went out on a picnic with her father who then leaves so she can meet with her ex, the Matteo asshole. When she refused his advances or to leave me, he went ape shit on her, trying to get her to spread herself for him by any means necessary so I would leave her when I found out. I arrived just in time to knock him the fuck out, but I flew off the handle and almost killed him. The only thing that stopped me was missing out on a lifetime with Sophia.”

  “What the fuck, bro? We have friends you know.”

  “Yes, I do, but I’m doing all I can to stay legal.”

  “So, is that what happened to her wrists?”

  “You noticed?”

  “Yeah, we both did, but we didn’t want to ruin dinner by bringing it up. We figured you’d tell us if it was something you wanted to share.”

  “Thanks for being considerate. She’s not ready to forgive her parents for the setup.”

  “I don’t know if I could either, especially if they knew what he planned.”

  “No, they didn’t. You know I can spot a liar and those two loved their only child so much that they wanted to keep her close and thought that ass was the one for her.”

  “Damn, that explains the fast wedding date. I thought you pulled a ‘me’,” he chuckled.

  “I wish, but she’s on the pill.”

  “Yeah, well, it isn’t always effective,” Malcolm said. We were silent for a few minutes before he asked, “So are they coming to the wedding?”

  “They are supposed to come, but I don’t know if they’ll change their mind or if Sophia will ask them not to.”

  “I guess we’ll have to wait and see.”

  “Yep,” I groaned. I just wanted to be married to her. I didn’t like that it was so complicated.

  I spent the day working and explaining the story to Jackson. He told me that he and Elizabeth weren’t the only ones coming; the Blake family was joining them.

  I called my aunt and uncle. They were coming, along with my cousins, Cameron, Simon, and Vanessa.

  Chapter 11

  Today was my wedding day, but I was missing two of the most important people in my life. Caleb was right, without them I wouldn’t be happy. I let my anger get the better of me and I told them not to come. It was stupid and now my heart was breaking.

  It was all because they wanted me to postpone the wedding. It wasn’t going to happen. I’d let them tell me what to do because I loved them, but they weren’t always right. I had to learn that the hard way.

  I was trying not to cry when Kristen came into the room with Elizabeth and Caleb’s cousin, Vanessa.

  “Oh no! You can’t be having regrets about marrying my bro. He’s downstairs acting like a nervous wreck.”

  “I don’t have regrets about marrying him one bit. It’s just…well, I wanted my parents here, but I was being as stubborn as them and now they aren’t here.” I started to sob, uncontrollably, when the door to my dressing room opened. I tried to hide that I was crying, but it was no use.

  “Mamma, Papa, siete qui! Non riesco a crederci!”

  “Caleb sent for us to come. He said one of you needed your parents here and he, definitely, could not have his.”
<
br />   “Grazie. Thank you so much!” My parents hugged me tightly. The girls walked out of the room quietly, closing the door behind them.

  “Thank you for being so much smarter than us. Thank you for finding a man who could appreciate you. We’re so sorry for all the pain we caused you,” my father whispered.

  My mother interrupted us and wiped my tears. “Oh, enough with the crying, amore. We need to get you ready to marry the handsome man downstairs.”

  “Yes, yes we do,” my father admitted proudly.

  ~~~~~~

  Impatiently, I waited downstairs for Sophia. I knew that she was going to be upset and so did Kristen. Apparently, after two weeks of hanging out, they were the bests of friends. I didn’t have a problem with it unless they used it against us.

  “Calm down, man. You look ready to bolt,” Malcolm whispered.

  “I’m not going anywhere until Sophia is legally Mrs. Caleb James.”

  “Don’t go running up the aisle for her!” Malcolm warned.

  “Don’t tell him that. Let him decide for himself,” Jackson barked. These fuckers had a bet.

  “How much is at stake?” I asked, letting them know I was on to them.

  Jackson shrugged then admitted, “Only a stack.”

  “A thousand dollars! You two are nuts.” I just shook my head at the two clowns. I wasn’t upset by it because I didn’t really care what they did with their money, but I wasn’t sure if I would rush up and steal her from her father.

  Once the music started, I was focused on the church door. Kristen and Elizabeth marched up the aisle as her bridesmaids. Then it was time for her. I thought my heart actually stopped as I waited for her to cross the threshold. She came in on her father’s arm looking everything like the princess she was.

  Sophia had her head tucked slightly then lifted it as she looked for me. The smile she gave told me I had made the right decision. Her eyes glistened with tears, but I knew they were happy tears. My eyes never left hers like I was stuck in a trance. It wasn’t until the priest asked who was giving away the bride that I snapped out of my daze and gladly accepted her hand.
